Itinerary

Hi guys. Here’s my itinerary for my first week in Japan. Any suggestions, recommendations, especially on the drive from place to place? I’m an easy hiker, so none of the walking intimidates me but I live in a village in central Europe so I enjoy spending time in cities when I travel. Not really into cutesy stuff on the whole.

Arrival Fukuoka airport, pick up car, drive down route 202, via Okawachiyama village, Saikai national park, bridge, coast road to Nagasaki

Nagasaki (2 nights) - China town, Peace Park, Glover Gardens, Dejima

Unzen national park, ropeway, Ayugaeri falls on way to ferry to Kumamoto

Kumamoto (3 nights) - castle, Suizenji Garden, Aso Kuju national park, Takachiho Gorge, Kikuchi Gorge, Nebegataki Falls, Daikanbo viewpoint, Kuminiogaoka observatory

Fukuoka (3 nights) - Ohori Park, Tower sunset

Then train on to Honshu and gradually up to Hokkaido.

Highlights of my Last Trip to Minami Aso near Kumamoto, Kyushu

I had a wonderful trip to the beautiful area of Minami Aso in Kyushu. It's a close to the volcanic region of Aso and it's so underrated! The best would be to rent a car to explore it. You can go to Kumamoto first for example and start your road trip from there.

I give you few tips and cool places to visit in my Aso Travel Guide.
