Beyond Tokyo.
Real Japan.
Hand-curated guides to Kyushu's most authentic experiences — volcanoes, hidden onsen, sea-cave shrines, and wild horses on Pacific cliffs.
37 hand-picked spots · Kumamoto · Oita · Miyazaki
Three Prefectures. Endless Discovery.
Each region of Kyushu has its own soul. Pick one, or let the AI planner weave them together.
Must-See Spots
Chosen for uniqueness, accessibility, and the "I can't believe this is real" factor.
Mt. Aso Caldera
One of the world's largest active calderas. Hike the lunar-like rim of Nakadake crater and gaze into a turquoise sulfuric lake few tourists ever see up close.
Beppu Jigoku (Hell) Tour
Eight 'hells' of boiling springs in otherworldly colors: blood red, cobalt blue, milk white. The Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell) is strangely beautiful — and you can eat eggs boiled in its steam.
Takachiho Gorge
Rent a rowboat and drift through a canyon carved by the Gokase River, under towering basalt walls and a waterfall that drops directly into the gorge. Go at 8am before the crowds arrive.
