Departure: Imabari　Arrival: Takamatsu

Join us on a day of discovery in one of the most remote areas of Japan, Iya Valley. Immersed in lush greenery, Iya Valley is an ideal destination for trekking and other outdoor activities. During this excursion, you will have the opportunity to cross the vine bridge called "Kazurabashi" and take a boat tour through the picturesque Oboke Gorge. Afterward, we will proceed to Takamatsu, where you will have the unique experience of learning to make your own udon noodles from a local udon master and eat them for dinner.

The Yui Prima Olivia vehicle will provide hassle-free access to local areas that may be difficult to reach by other means of transportation. Inside the bus, our dedicated attendants will cater to your every need, providing beverages, travel tips, and unparalleled service in both English and Japanese.
