Kagoshima Private Shore Excursion in Sakurajima W/Audio guide

Begin your private shore excursion with pickup directly from Marine Port Kagoshima. Travel comfortably in your own private vehicle. Unlike a large group tour, there is no need to keep pace with other travelers, allowing you to enjoy each destination at your own pace. Take the ferry to Sakurajima and explore this volcanic island. Visit Yunohira Observatory for views of the volcano, then see the volcanic landscape at Arimura Lava Observatory. Continue to the Lava Nagisa Promenade and relax in the natural footbath by the sea. Return by ferry to Kagoshima and visit Sengan-en, a historic Japanese garden overlooking Sakurajima and Kinko Bay. The driver speaks Japanese, with communication assisted by a translation app. Before your tour, you will receive an English digital guidebook about the itinerary and sightseeing locations. Pre-tour customer support is available in English. Return to Marine Port Kagoshima in time for your ship’s departure.

Yolon Island's Lily Beach. Once there, it is a paradise with many repeat visitors.

Yoron Island, a small island with a diameter of 6 km, is unknown to many Japanese people. Located 1.5 km offshore from the island, "Yurigahama Beach" is a superb beach that appears at high tide. Observe sea turtles while enjoying the emerald green sea. At night, enjoy the domed starry sky and the starry sky sommelier will guide you. On the next day, enjoy a tent sauna by the sea and still making memories on the "unknown island". A Japanese-speaking guide will guide you through the tour using a translation machine. Just to let you know the credit cards may not be accepted due to the remote islands and underpopulated areas. Please bring cash. For safety reminder, the weather on remote islands can change rapidly and flights may be cancelled, so please be careful with your schedule just before returning home.
