I thoroughly enjoyed the Itoshima day trip 200%!

Posted Date: 2024/06/30

えこGOGO！

The highlight of my three-day girls' trip to Fukuoka was the Itoshima tour. This was all thanks to the thoughtful consideration of our driver, Mr. Matsuda. I was able to enjoy a seafood bowl lunch that I had almost given up on, and I felt a profound sense of awe visiting the Senju-Sengen Kannon at "Raizan Senjō-ji Daihiō-in," which is the top power spot in Fukuoka. Additionally, I highly recommend the "Akiya no Daimon cruise," suggested by Mr. Matsuda, who read the tide and weather perfectly for… The highlight of my three-day girls' trip to Fukuoka was the Itoshima tour.

Additionally, I highly recommend the "Akiya no Daimon cruise," suggested by Mr. Matsuda, who read the tide and weather perfectly for the day. I was deeply moved to see the caves formed by erosion up close while being splashed by the waves of the Genkai-nada. Furthermore, thanks to the low tide, I was able to get right next to the torii gate at the iconic couple rocks of Futamigaura in Itoshima. We thoroughly enjoyed sightseeing at all the famous spots, and the memorable photos taken with Mr. M, who joined me on this trip, made it the best journey filled with smiles. This itinerary was something I could never have achieved on my own. If I have the opportunity again, I would definitely like to participate in a bus tour. 2泊3日の女子旅、今回の福岡旅行で1番心に残る観光が糸島ツアーでした。すべては、担当してくださったドライバーの松田様の粋なご配慮のおかげです。半ば諦めていた海鮮丼ランチも堪能し、福岡一のパワースポットである「雷山千如寺大悲王院」の千手千眼観音様をご参拝し霊験あらたかな感動を覚えました。また、この日の潮の流れと天候を読んでドライバーの松田様がご提案くださった「芥屋の大門の遊覧船」もお勧めです。玄界灘の荒波にそそり立ち海蝕によってできた洞窟を、波飛沫を浴びながら間近で見ることができ大変感動しました。さ… 2泊3日の女子旅、今回の福岡旅行で1番心に残る観光が糸島ツアーでした。すべては、担当してくださったドライバーの松田様の粋なご配慮のおかげです。半ば諦めていた海鮮丼ランチも堪能し、福岡一のパワースポットである「雷山千如寺大悲王院」の千手千眼観音様をご参拝し霊験あらたかな感動を覚えました。また、この日の潮の流れと天候を読んでドライバーの松田様がご提案くださった「芥屋の大門の遊覧船」もお勧めです。玄界灘の荒波にそそり立ち海蝕によってできた洞窟を、波飛沫を浴びながら間近で見ることができ大変感動しました。さらに、糸島の象徴である二見ヶ浦の夫婦岩は、引潮のお陰で鳥居すぐ側まで行くことができました。名所々を余すことなく観光し、各地での記念写真は、今回の旅で同行したM様との出会いで、笑顔に満ち溢れた最高の旅となりました。個人旅行では成し得ない行程の数々でした。またこのような機会がありましたら、是非バスツアーに参加したいと思います。

Itoshima Tourism

Posted Date: 2024/06/25

えっぴー

On the first day, we visited Kushida Shrine and Fukuoka Tower, and it rained occasionally. However, on the second day, during the long-awaited Itoshima sightseeing, we didn't mind the rain from the rainy season at all. I thought it was a bus tour, but I learned that it was a taxi tour for just four people. The other three were a friendly and fun group, and the driver was kind and attentive, making my solo trip even more enjoyable. It became a memorable and fun journey of a lifetime.１日目の櫛田神社、福岡タワー見物では時々雨でしたが。２日目待望の糸島観光では気にも梅雨の中雨にもあわず。バスツアーだと思っていたが、4人の為当日タクシー観光と知り、他の3人組は仲良しの楽しい人達、ドライバーさんも親切な気の利いた人で、私の1人旅を盛り上げて呉れました。一生の楽しい旅となりました。

Itoshima Tour on September 30

もりもり

I always come to Fukuoka for baseball games, so I hadn't done any sightseeing, but this time I found an Itoshima tour on your website. It was packed with attractions like a temple with a Kannon Hall, waterfalls, and the Couple Rocks. Since it was a tour with five people, it was nice to be able to move around comfortably. Thanks to the driver's consideration, I was able to participate enjoyably. Thank you very much.　福岡にはいつも野球観戦で来ているので、観光はしていませんでしたが、今回は福岡の近場で探すと糸島ツアーを御社のサイトで見つけました。
観音堂のあるお寺、滝、夫婦岩などなど盛りだくさんでした。
5人のツアーだったので、気楽に行動できて良かったです。
運転手さんの気遣いもあり、楽しく参加できました。
ありがとうございました。

Itoshima was amazing!

There were 9 participants in the tour, and surprisingly, many people joined alone. Originally, we were supposed to just view Futamigaura from the car, but since we had a little extra time, we were able to get out of the car for 5 minutes to take a look!

Additionally, thanks to the driver's suggestion, we changed our lunch location to Akua, allowing us to have an early lunch after the boat tour and then walk to Totoro's Forest for sightseeing.

We were able to efficiently explore Itoshima, making it a wonderful trip. It seems there are other tours available, so next time I come, I will join a different tour! ツアー参加人数が9人で、意外と1人で参加されている方が多かったです。
本来、車窓での観光であった二見ヶ浦では、少し時間があったため5分間だけ車から降りて見ることができました!
また、運転手さんの提案でお昼ごはんも芥屋へ変更したため、遊覧船後に早めに昼食を食べて歩いてトトロの森へ観光出来ました。

効率よく糸島を観光できたため、とても素敵な旅行になりました。
他にもツアーがあるみたいなので、次に来たときは別のツアーに参加します!

ひさと

I was glad that they were flexible in adjusting to changes in dining locations and the ship's departure time. I've heard that the store selling generative groceries is famous, but is it really necessary?食事場所の変更や船の発時間に合わせて移動してもらうなど臨機応変に動いてもらって良かったです。生成食料品を売る店は有名らしいけど、不要かな?

The driver guided us while teaching us various things. It was raining, but it was a very nice trip. We only saw Futamigaura from the car, but we also had some time to get out. Overall, I was very satisfied!ドライバさんが色々なことを教えながら案内してくださいました
雨でしたがとてもいい旅行でした。
二見ヶ浦も車から見ることだけでしたが
実際降りられる時間もあり
全体的にとても満足度高かったです！

幸せにしかならん！

I participated despite the unfortunate rain. At the Akoya Great Gate, the driver checked and found that if we left earlier, we would make it in time for the boat, so we headed there for an early lunch and were able to go without any issues. Although the weather wasn't great, everyone who participated and the driver were very pleasant, and I had a wonderful time. At Raizan Senjōji, I was able to hear an explanation from the chief priest, which was very nice. I would like to participate again.あいにくの雨の中参加させていただきました。
芥屋の大門では、時間を早めたら船が間に合うと運転手さんが調べてくださり、お昼を前倒しでそちらに向かい、無事に行くことができました。
天候には恵まれませんでしたが、参加した皆様も運転手の方もとても感じがよく素敵な時間が過ごせました。
　雷山千如寺は住職の方から説明も聞けてとてもよかったです。
また参加してみたいです。

A temple that brings peace on a rainy day.

あっちゃん

It was raining at Raizan, but the sound of the rain matched the atmosphere of the temple, and I felt my heart being cleansed. I was also able to calmly think about the things that had been troubling me.雷山で雨でしたが、雨音がお寺の雰囲気とあっていて心が洗われた感じがしました。
日頃悩んでいた事も、落ち着いて考えることが出来ました。

It was crowded with parking and other things during the holiday, but thanks to the driver's careful consideration based on the situation, we were able to enjoy sightseeing smoothly. I was also considering renting a car, but I'm glad I participated in the tour that allowed me to enjoy Itoshima.連休で駐車場など混んでいましたが、状況に応じた運転手さんの細かい配慮で、スムーズに観光できた。レンターカーの利用も考えていましたが、糸島を楽しめたツアーで参加してよかったです。

It's a shame that Futamigaura can only be seen from the car window.

I visited Senjyuji without any prior information and was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful it was. The chanting by the monk in front of the several-meter-tall Kannon statue was a truly great experience.

Since this temple is located quite deep in the mountains, I think it's great that it's included in the tour.

However, I found the meal time to be too short, and it was disappointing that Futamigaura was only viewed from the car window. In my personal opinion, I would prefer to skip the salt production facility visit and instead take about 90 minutes for lunch around Futamigaura, possibly at a nearby café, as that would likely enhance overall satisfaction. 全く前情報を得ずに訪れた千如寺だったが思いのほか良くて驚いた。特に数メートルもある千手観音像の前での僧侶による読経は大変良い経験になった。
これが結構な山奥にあるのでツアーに組み込まれているのはありがたいことだと思う。
残念な点は食事時間が短すぎなのと二見ヶ浦が車窓のみだったところです。個人的な意見だが、塩製作所の見学はいらないのでその分二見ヶ浦周辺で90分ぐらい昼食休憩を取って、近くにあるcafeでランチのほうが満足度が高いと思う。
