Concept
Explore Off-the-Beaten-Path Japan with the Help of Local Experts!
We strongly believe that when you travel, you should enjoy not only the destination but also the Journey.
That’s why we strive to provide you with exceptional bus service that respects nature and offers a sustainable alternative to bullet trains.
Our luxury vehicle, Yui Prima Olivia, has the same dimensions as a normal bus but instead of the usual 45 seats, it only has 21 seats in a 2+1 configuration. This provides you with plenty of space to relax, enjoy the view out of the window, sip Japanese sake, and stretch your legs in the spacious seats!
Join us and create unforgettable memories in Setouchi!

A sustainable option
YUI PRIMA OLIVIA is implementing an initiative to offset CO2 emissions through J-Credits. A portion of the emission allowances is included in the travel fare, and a portion of the additional charge is dedicated to efforts in environmental preservation in the Setouchi region. We strive to promote environmental activities in collaboration with the local community.
