Overview

Must-do on a Kyushu trip: Experience the Yufuin no Mori train, during the best light of the day + the most beautiful scenic route (Yufuin to Oita), super Chii! Go to Yufuin in the morning, with ample playtime of 120 minutes + leisurely time, avoiding crowded areas! Depart from Hakata in the morning and first immerse yourself in the rhythm of Yufuin town. The streets are unhurried, with coffee shops, dessert shops, and general stores slowly unfolding, and the silhouette of Mount Yufu in the distance. There's no need to rush to attractions here; just strolling around is very comfortable. Next is the soul of this journey – the special Yufuin no Mori train. Wooden carriages, retro windows, and slowly moving mountain scenery; sitting on the train itself is an experience. It's not just a simple mode of transport, but a part of the journey. In the afternoon, head to Beppu and check out the most iconic "Umi Jigoku" (Sea Hell). The unrealistically blue hot spring water steams, making it one of Kyushu's most recognizable hot spring landscapes. The last stop is Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. Red bridges, approach paths, omamori (charms), and ume-ga-mochi (plum rice cakes) bring the day's itinerary to a very Japanese ceremonial close. Natural scenery + special train + hot spring culture + shrine pilgrimage The day's pace is just right, not tiring, and not monotonous. ⚠️ Travel Notice August 8th to August 16th is the peak travel season for Japan's Obon Festival, which may lead to traffic congestion, large crowds, attractions closing early, or itinerary adjustments. Please do not book dinner, flights, or Shinkansen for that day, and it is recommended to bring a power bank. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

We will try our best to arrange it, but the final arrangement is subject to the actual situation on site. The type of vehicle used will be arranged according to the number of people, and the type of vehicle cannot be specified. When there are few people, a driver may be arranged to also serve as an attendant, and the explanation may be relatively brief. If you need to bring luggage, you must inform us in advance. If you bring luggage without authorization, the tour guide has the right to refuse you to board the bus and the fee will not be refunded. Eating and drinking are prohibited in the car. If damage is caused, compensation will be required according to local standards.

If the time is exceeded, additional fees will be charged (ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 yen/hour). The itinerary is for reference only. Actual traffic, stops, and tour times may be adjusted due to weather, traffic jams, facility maintenance, and other conditions. The tour guide may reasonably change or reduce attractions depending on the actual situation. In the event of weather or force majeure that causes cable cars, tour boats, and other facilities to be suspended, other attractions will be visited or the length of stay will be adjusted. No refunds will be given for late arrivals, temporary changes to meeting places, or leaving the group midway due to personal reasons. Any accidents and additional costs incurred after leaving the group shall be borne by yourself. Seasons and Landscapes Seasonal limited activities such as flower viewing, autumn foliage viewing, snow scenes, and fireworks displays are greatly affected by the climate, and the flowering period and autumn foliage peak may be advanced or delayed. Even if the expected landscape is not reached, the trip will still depart normally and no refunds will be given. Other Notes Please arrive at the meeting point on time. Latecomers will not be waited for and cannot join the tour midway. It is recommended to wear light clothing and shoes. Please bring warm clothing for winter or mountain trips. The itinerary does not include personal travel and accident insurance. It is recommended to purchase your own insurance. Outdoor activities and high-risk sports have certain risks. Please register carefully according to your health condition. After the itinerary departs, if it is forced to be terminated due to natural disasters or force majeure, the fee will not be refunded, and passengers will have to bear their own return or additional accommodation costs. During peak travel times on Japanese red days and weekends, there are often serious traffic jams or early closing of attractions. It is recommended not to book flights, Shinkansen, or dinners for that evening, and to bring your own snacks and portable power bank.

If JR officially changes the Yufuin no Mori train to another special train, no refund will be given, and you will experience the special train as normal.
