Why Choose Private Car for Your Yufuin & Beppu Trip?

 

The Challenges of Public Transport

Public transport in Yufuin and Beppu can be stressful for international travelers.

Dragging heavy luggage up hilly hot-spring towns is exhausting, and infrequent

local buses often waste precious vacation time. Furthermore, navigating between

Beppu’s scattered “Hells” via local transit is both confusing and slow.

 

The Benefits of a Private Car (with English-Speaking Driver)

Our private car service offers door-to-door comfort with zero luggage stress, giving

you a seamless luxury experience. Your English-speaking driver drops you at each

attraction and assists with ryokan check-ins and restaurant orders. With a 100%

flexible schedule, you can easily visit hidden scenic gems and maximize your

vacation on your own terms.

alternative. With your own spacious vehicle and a friendly, English-fluent driver,

your family gets a private, safe, and luxurious cabin on wheels. Everyone can sit

How to Get to Ukiha Inari Shrine (and why public transport is tough)

 

Ukiha Inari Shrine is famous for its stunning tunnel of 91 red Torii gates lined

up along a mountainside. It offers one of the most breathtaking views in Fukuoka,

but getting there without your own wheels can be a real challenge for international

travelers.

Visiting Ukiha Inari Shrine?

This stunning mountainside shrine is a must-see in Fukuoka, but public transport

is highly challenging:

・No Direct Bus: Requires a steep 30–40 min walk from the station.

・Complex Trains: Takes up to 2 hours with confusing transfers.

 

Travel Smart with Our Private Vehicle Service

Skip the stress and enjoy effortless sightseeing with a private vehicle and

English-Speaking Driver:

・Door-to-Door: Pick up from your Fukuoka hotel and drop-off right at the entrance.

・100% Flexible: Relax at your own pace—no rushing for train schedules.

How to Book a Takachiho Gorge Boat Ride

 

Please note that bookings must be made online starting two weeks prior to

your visit.  Reservations cannot be made by phone, and same-day tickets are

not available at the gorge.

Online bookings open at 9:00 AM JST, exactly two weeks before the visit date.

 

Due to high demand, slots fill up very quickly; it may be difficult to secure your

preferred time if you do not book immediately after the window opens.

Furthermore, while the booking process starts in English, some steps may switch

to Japanese only, which can be challenging for international visitors.

 

However, please rest assured. We can take care of the entire reservation

process on your behalf. Simply provide us with the number of people and your

preferred date and time, and we will handle everything, including the payment

process, for you.

We can arrange a Holy Mass for your group

 

Nagasaki is the historic cradle of Christianity in Japan, home to numerous

UNESCO World Heritage-listed churches and majestic local cathedrals.

To make your pilgrimage truly transformative, we offer specialized services

to arrange the celebration of Mass in these hallowed spaces.

 

As a core part of our bespoke pilgrimage tours, we provide full support for

arranging Mass at these sacred sites. Since this often requires intricate

coordination in Japanese, we bridge the gap by working closely with the

local clergy. Our goal is to ensure a seamless and spiritual experience for

your group at Nagasaki’s historic and World Heritage-listed churches.
