This time, I brought my entire family of six to participate in the tour. We departed from the hotel early in the morning to meet our guide, Ms. Cozy, at the meeting point. We were delighted that Ms. Cozy was leading our tour of Sakurajima Volcano and various sights in Kagoshima City. We communicated almost entirely in English throughout the tour, as I only know simple Japanese sentences and words.

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.

love the convenience with JR pass as it connects all the places of interest via Shinkansen. Juz that it’s getting more and more expensive… news reported it’ll increase price again this October so I better use it now 😂Klook has made purchase easy and convenient. I received the pass in less than 5days via DHL 👍🏻

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)

I visited with my child. I was worried my child would get bored just looking at the garden, so I purchased a ticket that included experiences. My child enjoyed it, and I was satisfied as well. If you show your voucher at the information center, they will give you detailed information and a bracelet. You can use this bracelet for craft experiences, meals, and desserts. During my visit, the archery experience was under construction, so they refunded us 500 yen per person, which was great because we could use this amount for other craft experiences. The meals and desserts were delicious, and the garden was beautiful. I didn't have enough time to visit the museum, but I think it would be nice to stay for about half a day and enjoy it slowly. Highly recommend!

This trip coincided with the rainy season, which was perfect because rainy days are my absolute favorite! Mr. Cameron was an excellent guide, leading us through both mountain hikes and seaside excursions. My memories of this Yakushima trip are truly wonderful!
