About us

An independent travel guide to Miyazaki Prefecture, for travellers who want to plan a great trip to southern Japan without the guesswork.

What we do

MiyazakiPrefecture.com helps you plan a visit to Miyazaki Prefecture in southern Japan. We cover Takachiho, Miyazaki city, Aoshima and the Nichinan coast, Obi, Cape Toi and the Kirishima mountains, with tours, where to stay, how to get there, what to eat and when to go.

We are not an official website

Despite our name, we are not the Miyazaki Prefectural Government, a city, town or village office, a tourism association, a shrine, or the managers of any attraction, park or transport service. For official information, public services, warnings and permits, please use the websites of those organisations.

We are not a tour operator

We do not run tours ourselves. We recommend tours run by local operators and sold through our booking partner, Viator.

How we choose tours

We recommend tours that are well reviewed, clearly described and fairly priced. We do not accept payment to feature or rank a tour.

How the site is funded

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you book through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This pays for the site and keeps it free to use. Read our affiliate disclosure for details.
