We requested a customised day tour (8 hours) because we wanted to see some of the One Piece statues, which are hard to reach with public transport. Our itinerary was: pick up at our Hotel in Kumamoto -> Sanji -> Nami -> Robin -> Mount Aso sightseeing -> Franky -> Shirakawa spring -> a different hotel (hot spring in the Mount Aso region). The booking experience was very pleasant, everything was communicated in English and we always got fast replies. Our driver, Mr. Otsuka, did not speak English, but we knew that in advance and it was no problem at all, he is very friendly. We had a lunch break after seeing Mount Aso and we arrived at our hotel basically after exactly 8 hours. So everything worked out exactly as we wanted it and we highly recommend booking a tour with Tr taxi R.
Thank you for recommending us in your review! We are glad to know that you enjoyed your trip in Kumamoto with Mr. Otsuka. Thank you for being our customer, we look forward to welcoming you to Japan again. We’re here to serve you anytime.
The driver was polite, but really has difficulty finding a few of the sites.
We’re grateful that you took the time to leave us a review. Thanks a lot!
Mr. Otsuka was wonderful in accommodating my family and helping them find both food they wanted to eat (difficult with a picky eater and allergies) and the experiences they wanted to have. He accommodated my requests for two specific sightseeing spots and then filled the rest of the time flexibly and impeccably according to my family's requests, taking them to beautiful scenic spots and a fascinating shrine.
Thank you for being our customer and leaving us a wonderful 5-star review. We believe Mr. Otsuka will be very happy to hear your warm feedback. And thank you so much for recommending us in your review! Have a nice day!
My family had an excellent time and no difficulties having their needs met despite the language barrier. Excellent, professional service led to a relaxing and wonderful day.
Thank you for the 5-star review! We hope your family will enjoy their time in Japan. We’re here to serve you anytime.
