I created this 10-day itinerary but I only have 9 days in Kyushu. **Please help me cut things out** because I can’t decide! I already cut out Beppu in favor of Kurokawa Onsen, as well as Nagasaki. What else should I remove and are any of my days too packed/unrealistic?
**Day 1** (starting in early afternoon): Kawachi Wisteria Garden > Train to Kumamoto (sleep in Kumamoto)
**Day 2**: Get rental car > Daikanbo Lookout > visit onsens in Kurokawa Onsen (sleep in Kurokawa)
**Day 3**: Kurokawa Onsen > Amano Iwato Shrine > Takachiho Gorge > return rental car in Kumamoto (sleep in Kumamoto)
**Day 4**: Train to Kagoshima > Sengan-en Garden (sleep in Kagoshima)
**Day 5**: High speed boat to Yakushima > explore Yakushima (sleep in Yakushima)
**Day 6**: Explore Yakushima (sleep in Yakushima)
**Day 7**: High speed boat to Kagoshima > Rent a car to explore Sakurajima (sleep in Kagoshima or Sakurajima)
**Day 8**: Train to Fukuoka > shopping in Canal City or Nishijin > Yatai food stalls (sleep in Fukuoka)
**Day 9**: Pick strawberries at the Chikushino strawberry farm > Kyushu National Museum (sleep in Fukuoka)
**Day 10**: Explore Fukuoka > Leave for the airport in late afternoon
Thank you for your help!

I would not really have cut Nagasaki.. now no wonder my trip to Kyushu is not 4 weeks, looking at this, some days feel rushed.
Cut back Nagasaki but put some strawberry picking… Hum…
I’d cut days off Fukuoka if it was me.
