Buying Bus Ticket from Fukuoka to Takachiho? 2016/7/2 22:08
I will be travelling to Japan in August and planned to stay one night in Takachiho, visiting the gorge and surounding nature. I can't drive so I have to use public transport. The only way doing this is by bus as I found out.
Is there a way to reserve a bus ticket from Fukuoka to Takachiho online? I know that I can buy the ticket at Hakata Station or Tenjin Bus Center, but I would rather reserve/buy the ticket before I come to Japan just to be safe. Is there any way doing this online? I found this site http://www.atbus-de.com/ Has anyone ever used this and reserved a ticket or should I just buy the ticket in Japan? Is there a danger that the bus might be booked out as it's Obon/holiday time when I travel to Takachiho or are most people drive by car anyway? Thanks in advance!

It is the official reservation websites by several bus companies in Kyushu. If you can use it, I recommend to do so. Note that the English version is machine-translated and may result in strange English.

Yes, there is a risk that it will be booked out.

Yes, Fukuoka to Takachiho can be booked on atbus-de in English. As usual, reservations open one month before departure.
