Car Rental
Want to explore freely? Renting a car is the best way to go! You can visit sightseeing spots along the way and even do some grocery shopping. While electric cars are eco-friendly and budget-friendly, gasoline cars offer more convenience for those who want to travel extensively. Choose the option that best suits your travel style. Please note that my property and surrounding area is not very spacious, so I recommend avoiding larger vehicles.

Local bus
The best thing about buses is the feeling of a journey. With buses running only once an hour, it might seem inconvenient, but that's part of the adventure! You might even miss a bus and end up chatting with a local, leading to an unexpected adventure. If you find yourself staying overnight with a local, please let me know. There's no cancellation fee! It's all part of the fun!
*If you get to Miiraku or Takahama, I can arrange a pickup within my capabilities.

Taxi
If you're eager to arrive at my guesthouse as soon as possible, taking a taxi might be the quickest option. Plus, taxi drivers often have a wealth of local knowledge. While it can be inconvenient to find a taxi each time you need to go somewhere, it's a good option if you're staying at my guesthouse and plan to explore nearby areas like Takahama on foot.
The one-way taxi fare from the port or airport to here is approximately 8,000 yen.

Rent a scooter
Experience the island like a local by renting a scooter. Scooters are an affordable and convenient way to get around, offering excellent fuel efficiency and maneuverability. During my first visit to Goto, I rented a scooter and stumbled upon a stunning camellia tree. The homeowner, who had just come back from fishing, kindly invited me in and offered me fresh seafood. If you're seeking spontaneous adventures, renting a scooter is a fantastic choice.

Rent a bike
Discover the beauty of Goto Island on two wheels! Cycling from central Fukue to my guesthouse is a fantastic way to experience the island's charm. Enjoy the scenic countryside, visit traditional cafe, and take in breathtaking views at Gyogasaki Park. If you need help, don't hesitate to ask a local. You'll be amazed at the warmth and hospitality of the people here.

Hitchhiking
First, head to the supermarket and grab a free cardboard box. Write "Miiraku direction" on it in big letters. You're all set! You can either stand by the roadside and thumb a ride or approach stopped cars. A little disheveled look can help. But make sure you maintain basic hygiene or you might not get a ride.
