5 Stars, no question!

Published on May, 2025

This was truly a wonderful tour. We arrived in port on the cruise ship the Crystal Symphony and the volcano erupted in front of our eyes. Spectacular. Hitomi met us at the port had everything arranged. She chartered a very nice jumbo taxi with a very friendly professional driver. Real luxury. We took the Sakurajima ferry to the Sakuragjima volcano. We had an informative visit to the museum, a geothermal footbath, hike through the lava fields, and lookout over the bay. We had a fantastic lunch at Bakuro yakiniku restaurant. Lunch was not only delicious, but also a great experience. We toured of Senganen Garden. The Senganen Garden gave us a real feel for life as a Samurai. I wish we had more time; there is so much to see. Hitomi is a lovely person. Her English and grammar are excellent. Lots of stories and a wonderful sense of humor. She knows the history, the culture and geography. Very informative. No question went unanswered, and we asked a lot of questions. 5 Stars, no question!

Strongly Recommended

Went on a tour with two young children. Experienced a flexible, friendly and knowledgeable guide! Expectations surpassed here! Recommended.

Super guide, super tour!

Published on Mar, 2025

We couldn't have asked for a better guide. Hitomi was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke good English. She recommended a restaurant for lunch that served an authentic wagyu beef lunch that was amazing, everyone enjoyed it. We filled the trip with the best highlights of the area, enjoying a foot spa from the volcanic hot springs along the way. Hitomi explained what we were visiting in detail, which was most interesting. I would highly recommend this tour and guide.

Hitomi made the day!

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a fantastic 7 hour shore excursion with Hitomi during our cruise in July on Diamond Princess. Hitomi was very helpful and efficient with the communication beforehand and planned us an amazing day, the highlights being Sakurajima and Senganen Gardens. During the day, Hitomi looked after us so well, giving us interesting information and changing things around during the day to make sure that our whole group were happy and that we made the most of our stop in Kagoshima. We would not hesitate to recommend Hitomi to anyone!

Great guide, great experience!

Published on Dec, 2024

Our guide, Hitomi, was excellent. We booked two days of private tour and were able to explore Kagoshima, Sakurajima, Chikan, and Ibusuki. She was knowledgeable, personable, and enjoyable. My family and I really enjoyed her and the tour. Would definitely recommend her!
