Sakurajima Island
journey. Based in Fukuoka, we are a dedicated travel agency specializing exclusively
in the Kyushu region.
Sakurajima is the iconic symbol of Kagoshima, with plumes of smoke and steam rising
almost daily from its active southern peak, Minamidake. Once a true island, it became
physically connected to the Osumi Peninsula during the massive 1914 eruption, when
lava flows filled the channel between them. Today, various scenic observation points
across the volcano are easily accessible via a short, scenic ferry ride.

Nagasaki-city
journey. Based in Fukuoka, we are a dedicated travel agency specializing exclusively
in the Kyushu region.
Nagasaki is one of Japan’s most cosmopolitan cities, with a rich trading history dating back
to the opening of its port in 1571. As a historic gateway to the world, it was the first region
where Christianity took root and later played a pivotal role in Japan’s industrial modernization.
Beyond its scenic charm, the city holds profound historical significance—from the era of the
‘Hidden Christians’ to its poignant legacy as the site of the atomic bombing in WWII.
