Kyushu Holidays

The southernmost of Japan’s four main islands, Kyushu, is a region of striking natural beauty paired with vibrant, modern cities. From volcanic landscapes and lush countryside to bustling urban centres, it offers a diverse and atmospheric introduction to southern Japan.

Among its highlights is Fukuoka, a contemporary “foodie” destination known for its street food culture, energetic nightlife, and relaxed coastal feel. In contrast, Nagasaki combines scenic harbour views with a complex and poignant history.

Further inland, Beppu is Kyushu’s renowned onsen capital. Clouds of steam rise continuously from its many hot spring sources, giving the skyline an otherworldly appearance, while the distinct scent of sulphur lingers in the air - an unmistakable reminder of the volcanic forces that shape the region.

Trailfinders offers a range of Kyushu holidays and we have a dedicated team of destination specialists who are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore Japan on a self guided holiday, a sociable small group tour, a stopover or a cruise holiday, they are the perfect people to ask.
