Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kei was our guide. He took us to some Jigoku around Beppu. Lunch at Jigokumushi Kobo Kannawa was lovely. Thank you Kei, for the best time in Beppu.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family had the "Beppu private city tour with transport". Kyushu Immersion group gave such an incredible service! This tour only manages 5 per group as the guide will use their own vehicle. Thankfully Kei was able to arrange for my family's sixth member to join with just a some adjustments. The team was easily contactable, answering all queries immediately. A truly responsible dedicated team indeed! This tour is hassle free and peaceful! We had a lovely day outing at Beppu with our guide Jun-san! He's such a professional, calm and patient guide. We had mobility issues in my family but all was sorted out with Jun-san adjusting the pace of the tour. His English is excellent and he took care of all of us! No jostling with other strangers and tours! We had such a GREAT time. The tour is worth it for the hassle free and peace of mind it provides!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Beppu City Tour with Private Guide was an exceptional experience. Our guide, Kei made contact prior to the tour to determine our interests and food preferences so that he could plan our 5 hours accordingly. He showed us his incredible city including the Hells of Beppu and geyser. We thoroughly enjoyed a walk around the back streets of Kannawa and a delicious steamed bun from a street vendor - so many things were possible because we were guided by a true local. A classic Beppu lunch cooked in the traditional steaming method was thoroughly enjoyed. Kei helped us with purchasing tickets which allowed us to move along at a good pace between venues. His communication was excellent and he shows a genuine interest in travellers as he showcases his local area. Kei was punctual and his car was very comfortable and clean. I highly recommend this reputable guide.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My parents and I went to Usuki with Kei. He picked us up and dropped us off at our lodgings. Unlike the crowded onsen towns Beppu and Yufuin, Usuki was pleasantly peaceful with no tourists to be seen! Kei explained to us that the British samurai of drama Shogun fame actually washed up in Usuki in 1600. He took us to a Buddhist temple that was linked to that history, and introduced us to a Frenchman who works there and resides in the area. It was so interesting to meet a real-life gaijin who fell in love with the city and makes his life there. The Fugu lunch Kei arranged was wonderful too. Apparently, Usuki is a UNESCO city of gastronomy, famous for its soy sauce and miso. The stone Buddhas were impressive and serene in a beautiful countryside setting, and getting to go inside a samurai residence (villa of the Inaba clan that ruled Usuki in the Tokugawa period) was fascinating. I highly recommend taking a detour to Usuki with Kyushu Immersions. Frankly, one day was too short to take in all the history, culture, and gastronomy. Thanks to Kei who thoughtfully accommodated my elderly parents, so we didn't need to walk too far or take stairs.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the tour you are looking for! Don't hesitate. Our custom Beppu tour with Kyushu Immersion was a true highlight of our Japan trip. From the start, everything was thoughtfully planned around our interests, and our guide, Kei, brought Beppu to life with deep local knowledge and genuine enthusiasm. These are just some of the highlights (there was even more!). We explored the famous Beppu “hells,” including Chinoike Jigoku and Umi Jigoku, enjoyed sweeping views from the Yukemuri Observatory, and visited a castle and traditional samurai houses that added rich historical context to the day. A steamed lunch cooked using Beppu’s hot spring heat was both unique and delicious, and the sake tasting was a wonderful local touch. What made this experience exceptional was how personal it felt. Kei carefully planned the day in advance based on our preferences, paced everything perfectly, and made traveling by private vehicle comfortable and stress free. Rather than feeling like a checklist of sights, the tour felt immersive and meaningful. This was not just sightseeing but a beautifully curated experience that gave us a deeper appreciation of Japan. We highly recommend Kyushu Immersion for anyone looking for a truly customized and memorable tour. It is everything you hope for and more!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great last minute private tour thanks to Ken and Keita squeezing us in at the eleventh hour. They were very accommodating with our travel schedule, and two young girls. Would def use their services again, thank you gents!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful tour with Keita today! Got to see a beautiful samurai village and samurai homes, and a castle tour! He even an arranged a private tea experience at a 150 year-old tea house. Our guide brought us treats and local drinks, and was took pictures for us. Highly recommend if you are in the Beppu area. 😀Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful time on our private tour in Shimonoseki. Kei went above and beyond in organising a custom tour for the day our cruise ship was in port in Shimonoseki. He ensured my family and I all had a memorable time and saw the highlights of Yamaguchi. He picked us up from the port and it was a very well planned day. Highly recommend Kyushu Immersion!! Will definitely be a repeat customer if we are back in that region of Japan 🇯🇵 🐡Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was a last minute booking that Kei graciously fit me into for a customized One Piece statue tour across all of Kumamoto. Kei was an excellent driver and made great timing so that I was able to purchase all special edition one piece figures. Kei also showed some great side spots and explained the logic for why each statue was placed where it was, and he also chose a delicious restaurant to stop at. Overall, I was grateful for my experience and it was well worth it.
