Overview
Embark on a breathtaking day tour from Fukuoka to Miyazaki that takes you deep into the heart of Japanese mythology, natural beauty, and culinary delight. This full-day adventure begins with a scenic drive through Kyushu’s countryside, leading to the mystical Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine, where moss-covered stone lanterns and a forested path create a dreamlike atmosphere. You’ll then visit Amanoiwato Shrine, the legendary cave linked to the sun goddess Amaterasu, followed by a peaceful walk to Amanoyasukawara, a sacred riverside cave filled with stacks of prayer stones. The highlight of the tour is the stunning Takachiho Gorge, with its towering basalt cliffs, emerald river, and the iconic Manai Falls. You can walk the scenic trail or rent a boat to glide beneath the falls for a truly unforgettable view. A delicious lunch featuring local Miyazaki cuisine—often including premium Miyazaki beef or traditional teishoku—is included, offering a taste of the region’s rich food culture.
