November trip from Yakushima to Osaka 2019/3/3 19:07
Hi to everyone,

I'm planning to go on my 3rd trip to Japan in November.

Maybe you could give me some feedback on this itinerary?

1. Arrival Kagohima in the evening
2. Kagoshima, Dance festival
3. Ferry to Yakushima, pick up rental car
4. Yakushima
5. Yakushima
6. Yakushima
7. Ferry to Kagoshima, train to Miyazaki
8. Miyazaki (bus trip Aoshima, Udo jingu, Sun messe)
9. Train to Nobeoka, bus zu Takachiho
10. Takachiho
11. Bus to Kumamoto, train to Fukuoka
12. Fukuoka (Morning: Dazaifu, Afternoon: Sumo)
13. Train to Himeji, maybe side trip to Akiyoshido Cave on the way?
14. Himeji (Castle, Garden and Shosha mountain), evening train to Osaka
15. Osaka, maybe side trip to Kyoto
16. Osaka
17. Departure

On my first trip in Spring 2014, I have already spent 5 days in Kyoto, 1 evening in Osaka, 1 day in Koyasan and 2 days in Hiroshima / Miyajima and I've been to Kanazawa and Takayama, but I've missed Himeji. I've not been to Kyushu before.

Yakushima and Himeji are the "must dos". I've also considered hiking in Kirishima, but many of the trails have been closed for a longer time.

Thank you!

Sounds like a very nice trip and I am sure you will love Kyushu and particularly the amazing Yakushima.
