- Sandro on his family holiday to South Africa and Mozambique

A possible, beautiful itinerary for you

Arrival in Kagoshima
Upon arrival transfer to Tenku-no-Mori, a Relais & Châteaux property where all is tranquility, boasting open-air baths and spas to soothe the body. The delicate nature that surrounds the property nourishes the soul. Take the day to relax and embrace a new mindset: one closer to the sky.
Lunch in the Feudal Style
Travel back in time at Sengan-en, a truly unique 17th-century Japanese stately home and garden. Built by the Shimadzu Clan, one of the most influential during the Edo period, the garden captures impressions of feudal Japan. The Shimadzu were some of the first leaders to advocate the end of Japan’s isolationism and were instrumental in the founding of modern Japan. Take a relaxing stroll around the traditional gardens and see how the exquisite regional glassware Satsuma Kiriko is made at the neighboring glassworks before enjoying a private lunch of traditional Kagoshima cuisine in full view of the active volcano Sakurajima.
