Review for: One Day Tour

This itinerary is different from other one-day itineraries. It is arranged by the Japan Kumamoto Tourism Bureau. There is no tour guide or tour bus. You have to drive to all designated places by yourself. We actually followed the time schedule of the itinerary. Personally, I think the time spent at each scenic spot was well arranged. It is a pity that the crater can only be viewed for half an hour. Some people think it is a pity, but it was actually very cold that day. Personally, I think it takes half an hour to view the crater. In fact, it’s almost the same! Next, we went to Sosenri to have lunch and enjoy the scenery. The lunch was delicious. My family members who were traveling with us liked it very much. The scenery of Sosenri was beautiful and you could even ride a horse. It is recommended that you go to the observation deck and walk on the grassland. It will take about three hours at Aso Station in the afternoon. We chose to go to Aso Shrine. We can take JR or bus for a while. The shrine is also very spectacular. After seeing it, we can also go around the nearby shopping streets. The itinerary is quite rich! There was a traffic jam on the return trip, so I arrived at Hakata Station one hour later than expected, but there was nothing I could do about it, so I won't give a negative review. As long as each ride is mentioned in the itinerary, you can show it to the driver for confirmation, which is very convenient!

Review for: One Day Tour

The activity purchased this time is a one-day tour of Mount Aso without a guide. After the event is confirmed, you will receive an itinerary, and you need to follow the itinerary and take the bus that day. Every time you get on and off the bus, you need to show your itinerary to the driver for review. The whole process is very smooth, eliminating the need to arrange your own itinerary and adjust the driving time, and it is also cheaper than buying the tickets yourself. But please note that the crater bus is not included. The activity also includes lunch at a restaurant near the Crater Museum. The restaurant prices are relatively expensive, so the activity package is a great value. The Aka Beef burger meal was richer than I expected, tasted good, and there was coffee at the end! It was really chilly to enjoy lunch in Cao Qianli (except for the sun on the left). Unfortunately, the time spent in the crater was relatively short, probably less than half an hour. In the end, I had to wait for the return bus at Aso Station for 3 hours. During that time, I could make my own arrangements to go to Aso Shrine. Unfortunately, I was not interested in the shrine, so I went to soak in a nearby hot spring and buy souvenirs! 😆Overall it is a very good experience and worth recommending!

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

There is a problem that you have to move on your own because there is no guide, but if you usually like to travel, this is not a problem at all. Also, you don't have to move exactly as written on the voucher. Since you are moving with a ticket that has already been issued, it is okay to use a bus ticket for the same route at a different time! Also, since this trip is greatly affected by the weather, you need to be careful.

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

There is no guide, so you can just take the bus that comes at a set time and go on your own. I couldn't see the crater because the alert level was level 2, but there was a place where I could take a helicopter before going to the crater, so I tried to go there... I wandered around all day, and lunch was delicious as well. There is some opening time at Asosan Station, so it's fun to walk around and see the village. I recommend it to those who travel alone.

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

This itinerary mainly involves catching a bus at the bus station according to the time on the itinerary. We provide buses from Kumamoto to Aso and Mt. Aso. If you are lucky, you can spend another 600 yen to go up and see the crater. At noon, we went to Sosenri's restaurant to have a beef burger set meal, including a cup of hot coffee. If there is no tour guide on the itinerary, you only need to wait for the bus according to the time and show the voucher to the driver. Very relaxing trip.

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

There is no tour guide on this one-day tour, but he will help you arrange all bus times and tickets. When getting on and off the bus, just show the ticket on the document that klook gave you. But it does not include the bus trip to the volcano. Don’t worry. Basically, when you get off the bus, you will queue up to buy the volcano bus. There will be an instructor to indicate the location.

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

The itinerary of Cao Qianli is quite good. According to the itinerary and train number, you can get a very good travel experience. Since I am a vegetarian, the restaurant owner for lunch was willing to adjust the meal to tomato pasta, thank you very much. The bus from Kussenri Volcano Museum to Aso Station may have a lot of passengers. If time permits, it is recommended to wait for the bus a little earlier. Overall, it’s highly recommended👍

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

The itinerary is very clear. I followed the schedule and arrived early to prepare. It went very smoothly✌️The transportation and meals arranged were great. This time because the crater was not open because of the warning, I chose to ride horses, take photos, and Hiking and visiting the Volcano Museum, it was very pleasant and the scenery was beautiful ☀️ There will also be Japanese and English introductions to the attractions on the bus, which was a great experience 🩷 During my free time at Aso Station, I chose to go to the Yumenoyu Hot Spring opposite. Aso milk, cheap and very comfortable👍👍👍

This itinerary has no tour guide, no introduction to attractions, only driver pick-up and drop-off. You get off the bus at each stop by yourself, then get on the bus according to the timetable and go to the next stop. Pack an Aka Beef burger for lunch.

Review for: Aso Day Trip Tour

The temperature is a bit cold but the scenery is beautiful. Unfortunately, we can’t get close to the crater that day. The alert level has been raised to level 2 and it is not open. You need to leave a message on your own for the boarding and alighting time. You need to draw a ticket to get on the bus. You need to show your voucher to the taxi when getting on or off the bus.
