Japan's onsen island, end to end: Fukuoka's yatai food stalls, the steaming 'hells' of Beppu, quiet Yufuin under Mt. Yufu, the vast green caldera of Aso, and Nagasaki's harbor history. Two ryokan nights with open-air baths are built in — this is the route Japanese travelers take when they want hot springs done properly.

Meet at Fukuoka Airport or Hakata Station. Evening among the riverside yatai stalls of Nakasu: one stool, one bowl of tonkotsu ramen, and the city does the rest.
Cross to the east coast. Walk the cobalt Umi Jigoku and its steaming brothers — viewing springs too hot to touch — then check into a Beppu ryokan and take the waters yourself.
A short hop inland to Yufuin — galleries and craft shops along the main lane, Lake Kinrin steaming at dawn and dusk, cafes in old farmhouses. Second onsen night, quieter this time.
Drive the grasslands inside one of the world's largest calderas — horses grazing on the Kusasenri plain, volcano ridges on every horizon — then down to Kumamoto beneath its black castle.
West to Nagasaki. The Peace Park and museum ask for an unhurried morning; Dejima and the old European quarter fill the afternoon; the ropeway up Mt. Inasa ends the day over one of Japan's three great night views.
An easy morning run back to Fukuoka — time for Canal City or one last bowl of ramen — then your flight from Fukuoka Airport.
