Wow, thank you for the 10000% recommendation! It means the world to me. You were fantastic guests, and I had such a great time exploring Kagoshima with you. Take care, and let me know if you are ever back in Japan! (Sin I from Kagoshima)

“Volcanos and Vinigar”

Sini was a lovely guide. She rented a car to drive around our group of 6. We started the tour by heading to the ferry terminal which transported us and the car to Sakurajima Volcano. We were able to beat the big busses and arrived at the museum before 9:00. This allowed us to enjoy the mineral foot baths and walk around the volcano without crowds. After completing a loop narrated by Sini and visiting the Arimura observatory, we enjoyed the museum and had plenty of time for photo opps before our next stop. Back on the ferry, we returned to Kagoshima and visited a vinegar field where we learned about the process of making rice vinegar. The farm has an extensive store that sells many of its products which you can sample and purchase, but the highlight for me was having lunch upstairs in their restaurant with has beautiful views of Sakurahama volcano. Having had a delightful traditional Japanese lunch with many plates took some time so we were a little rushed in the Japanese Samurai garden-Senganen. This is a world culture site that you could take a whole day to enjoy, but we had only one hour. We did have time to see the traditional house which required removing our shoes, but was a beautiful example of Samurai elite living. As promised, Sini returned us to the port at the agreed upon time and with a full day's adventure! We would highly recommend this tour for your day in Kagoshima.

Dear Andy, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful and detailed review! It was an absolute pleasure guiding your group of six around Kagoshima. I am thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our morning trip to Sakurajima. Beating the tour buses and having the foot baths and trails to ourselves is always my goal, and I am glad it worked out perfectly for you. I also appreciate your feedback regarding our visit to Senganen. As you mentioned, it is a magnificent World Heritage site with so much to see. I am glad you still managed to experience the beautiful traditional samurai house, but I would love to show you the rest of the gardens at a more relaxed pace next time! Thank you again for highly recommending my tour. Wishing you all many more wonderful adventures on your remain cites. You are always welcome back to Kagoshima! Warmest regards, Sini
