Best day in Japan. - This was my best day in Japan. Came all the way from Las Vegas NV. Rento was an amazing tour guide. Kind and knows his history of the area. We got exercise and a wonderful tour. Ask for Rento when you book he will plan an amazing day for you.

A Must Do Tour!! - This tour was a terrific way to experience Sakurajima. The bikes were very easy to operate. The scenery was absolutely gorgeous. Rento was the BEST guide-happy, accommodating, smiling and informative. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. If you’re in Kagoshima, you should ferry over to Sakurajima and climb the volcano with Rento!

So much fun! Highly Recommend! - This was a wonderful experience. I had SO much fun! An e-bike it the perfect way to see Sakurajima. Plenty of breaks and photo opportunities. Lentil (may not be correct spelling) was the perfect guide, a local with all the knowledge, excellent English (important for me), and extremely accommodation to my needs and wants (notably, taking a lot of breaks!).

Great afternoon trip - Remco is a well prepared and knowledgeable local who did a good route for us. Don't take this trip if you wish to do cardio. But if you wish to learn about this active volcano you at a great plac. Consider the weather when you plan your trip

Beautiful, interesting and sweaty on a sunny day - Great trip with a story about the volcano and the island. It was a very hot day, with a few bottles of water with and opportunity to buy along the way. Rento was a great guide - clear recommendation instead of taking the bus like all the others ⁇

Fun ride ☺️ - Had a lovely ride to the view point. It was a tough ride up (for me) even with the help of the e-bike! Too bad it was cloudy and we couldn't really see the top. But the surrounding area was very pretty. Learnt alot from Rento, he answered my many questions and also gave me many recommendations for the area! I also enjoyed the treats that Rento brought along. Definitely had a good time today
