Transport in Nagasaki Prefecture

Klook offers the best prices. If you want to experience the charm of the Northern Kyushu region, I recommend taking the JR. I bought a three-day JR pass and visited Kokura, Mojiko, and Kumamoto. I highly recommend Kokura Castle; although it's a reconstructed castle, it offers many interactive activities for visitors. You can also try on kimonos for free and take photos, or experience horseback archery—it's definitely worth a visit. If you get off at Kokura, you must try the chicken udon noodles at the standing noodle shop on the Kitakyushu Station platform, which has a long history; it's very affordable and delicious! Mojiko is a beautiful harbor with a European flair, perfect for exploring various historic buildings and taking photos. Curry is a famous local dish there. Kumamoto Castle, one of Japan's three great castles, has several centuries of history and is a reconstructed castle with significant historical value. The castle's main color is black, and its appearance resembles a samurai, giving it a majestic presence. I suggest taking the tram to Kumamoto Castle to experience the local culture and daily life.

Great value! On the first day, October 11, 2026, we chose to visit Hakata, Kokura, Mojiko, and Miyajidake. We used both Sonic and local trains, only having to pay a little extra for the bus. Just this day alone made it worth the 3,500 yen pass, and it even lasted for two days! On October 12, 2026, we just visited Uminonakamichi Seaside Park. It was very sunny, but overall, I highly recommend it.

Maximized this! 1st day of use : Bus from Tenjin to Beppu(¥3,250); local bus ride worth ¥170 per ride around Beppu . Day 2: Roundtrip bus from Beppu to Yufuin ¥1,880; local bus ride around Beppu; Day 3: Bus from Beppu to Tenjin (¥3,250); local bus ride in Tenjin and Hakata (¥150/ride); RT bus from Tenjin to Tosu Outlet ( ¥1,540). To note: To activate on the day of 1st day of use and should be in front of the ticketing staff so they can print the ticket(bus ride from Tenjin to Beppu). Same with days 2 and 3 activate the day use in front of the ticket staff or bus driver, they check the date: Local rides in Beppu, Yufuin, Tenjin and Hakata no need for reservation just get a small ticket upon entering the bus. Bus rides for Rountrip Beppu- Tenjin and Tenjin to Tosu premium outlets needs reservation ( you can do it online or bus terminal ticket office)

Taking the JR from Hakata requires a transfer at Takeo-Onsen, and the bus only takes about half an hour longer while being much cheaper. Coincidentally, the bus stop was right near the hotel we booked, which was also much more convenient than lugging our bags up and down stairs and across a long overpass from the train station. Plus, there is definitely space for large and small luggage, allowing you to relax, take a seat, and catch some sleep. On the JR, you have to hunt for a place to put large bags or even compete for space, otherwise you end up having to put your luggage right in front of your seat, which is very uncomfortable.

Claiming the ticket was a breeze and the staffs were friendly. The place overall is a nice theme park with lots of beautiful scenery that you wouldn’t imagine to exist in Fukuoka!

I experienced very friendly service from the driver and comfortable seats. They didn't turn off the lights like they do in Korea, and while there wasn't a traffic jam, it seemed to take about 10-20 minutes longer than scheduled. We also stopped at a rest area along the way.
