Höjdpunkter

Kagoshima, at Kyushu's southern tip, offers dramatic scenery and rich heritage, with Sakurajima, an active volcano, defining the skyline across the bay. This private tour is by private vehicle with an English-speaking guide throughout, beginning at Shiroyama Park Observation Deck for a panoramic view of the volcano and city below. From there, visit Sengan-en, a UNESCO World Heritage 17th-century garden built by the Shimazu clan, including the Shoko Shuzukan Museum on Kagoshima's role in Japan's industrial revolution. Continue to Tenmonkan, Southern Kyushu's largest shopping district, with time for lunch and local treats such as shirokuma shaved ice and Kagoshima kurobuta pork (own expense). The tour concludes at the Museum of the Meiji Restoration, tracing the story of the young Satsuma warriors who helped modernize Japan. As the only touring option on this route is by private vehicle, the itinerary can be adjusted within the day's allotted time to suit your interest

About Kagoshima

Kagoshima, in southern Kyushu, faces the smoking volcano of Sakurajima across a bay, with a samurai past, hot springs and sweet-potato spirits.

Kagoshima stands on a bay in southern Kyushu, with the active volcano Sakurajima rising from the water just across from the city. A short ferry ride crosses the bay, and a lava flow in the 1914 eruption joined the former island to the mainland. Ash sometimes drifts over the city, which has long been used to it.
