One-week Japan Itinerary for repeat visitors (7)

(Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, Osaka Prefectures)

To foreign travelers who have already been to Japan many times and would like to visit more places in Japan!

We have created model routes outside the so-called “Golden Routes” such as Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, Kyoto, and Osaka. Please use it as a reference for your future itineraries.

The seventh route is a tour of Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, and Osaka Prefectures. We have created a travel route that will take 7 days and 6 nights, departing from and arriving at Narita International Airport, with a budget of no more than Yen 200,000.

This itinerary allows visitors to fully enjoy Japan's proud culture and scenery, including six World Heritage sites (Sacred Island of Okinoshima and Associated Sites in the Munakata Region, and Industrial Revolution Heritage of Meiji era) and three national treasure buildings.
