It was a pleasant day with Mitsui being our driver and Koga our guide. The people in this site were very helpful, responsive and accommodating. Definitely recommending their service when you want to book your tour. I don’t have a hard time booking with them. They were flexible in our last minute change in time.

We booked a service from Oita to the airport following the Japan Rugby game. Despite the intense traffic and difficulty of access to the stadium, the driver pulled out all the stops to get us to the airport on time - and we made it. Thank you very much for your excellent service and dedication to the passengers!
