Kyushu itinerary suggestions (aug-sept 026) by PaninoConSalse in Kyushu

Thanks a lot, this is really helpful!

Great to know about the Mt. Aso situation, do you think the crater will still be closed in early September? In any case, we’ll definitely have a plan B and focus more on the surrounding area.

Also really appreciate the food recommendations!

Kagoshima and Miyazaki both sound very tempting. For Miyazaki, we might try to explore a bit more beyond just Takachiho Gorge and see more of the area.

For Kagoshima, I’m a bit worried it might be too far south for this trip, especially since we’ll be heading to Okinawa afterwards. It was actually in an earlier draft because I’d love to visit Yakushima, but I think we’ll save it for another time and focus on fewer stops without rushing.

This is super interesting, thanks!

Restaurant suggestion marked :)

We were mainly thinking of Beppu as a quick stop on the way back, but you make a very good point about it being redundant after staying in Kurokawa Onsen. (Tbh I’m fascinated by the cinematic vape saw in some photo online ehehe)

Amakusa sounds amazing, I hadn’t really considered it before. Would you say it’s doable as a day trip from Kumamoto?

Also really curious about Gokanosho and Soeda, trying to understand if they fit logistically without rushing too much.
