Creator's Key Takeaways

we were lucky enough to find a cruise through MSC cruise lines that cost us less than 300 for eight nights

unfortunately it's looking a little cloudy foggy rainy I'm honestly not even sure which way we're supposed to be looking for the volcano

fortunately the weather never cleared up and because we have to be back at the cruise ship in port on time we do have to take the Hop On Hop off bus back down

pork days are just never long enough and although we had a great time exploring those two short things that we did we would love to be able to make it back and explore a bit more of kagoshima

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take the 15-minute ferry to Sakurajima for about 200 yen per adult
Use the hop-on hop-off bus (500 yen per person) to explore the volcano area without much hiking
