Sakurajima Private Car Tour: Volcano Viewpoints and Foot baths

Getting around Kagoshima independently can be difficult, especially for cruise passengers. While the ferry to Sakurajima is easy to use, the island’s main attractions are spread out and public transportation is limited. On this private tour, your vehicle travels with you aboard the ferry, allowing you to explore Sakurajima comfortably and efficiently without waiting for buses or worrying about schedules. Visit Yunohira Observatory, Arimura Lava Observatory, Sakurajima Yogan Nagisa Park for a relaxing foot bath, and the Sakurajima Visitor Center before returning by ferry and private car directly to the cruise port. This approximately 4-hour tour is an easy and comfortable way to experience the highlights of Sakurajima.
