Excursão privada de um dia ao Monte Aso Nakadake Crater & Kusasenri em Kumamoto

Board the bus at platform 6 of Sakuramachi Bus Terminal. Remember to queue on the bus side, not the airport side. The schedule is clearly displayed. Just show your voucher to the driver. The driver calls out names at the first stop, which is very reassuring. Visiting Mount Aso and Kusasenri in summer is wonderful; the temperature peaks at 27 degrees Celsius, making it very cool and pleasant. Highly recommended!

This is a great itinerary for those who don't want to research transportation or join a tour group. You just need to follow the schedule to catch the transport, which is very convenient.

Although there's the issue of having to travel independently without a tour guide, this won't be a problem at all for those who enjoy traveling. Also, you don't necessarily have to follow the itinerary exactly as written on the voucher. Since you already have your tickets issued, it's perfectly fine to use a bus ticket for the same route but a different time! Please note that this trip is heavily influenced by the weather, so caution is advised.

It was convenient and simple, but the time spent in Aso was too short, not enough to visit Aso Shrine. I hope it can be extended a bit, so I can see more of the scenery.

The itinerary was clear, and the transportation arrangements were excellent, with friendly and polite drivers. I was thrilled to see the vast Kusasenri and the active Aso volcano! 😊

I absolutely loved this trip! Although the journey was a bit long, the scenery was incredibly worthwhile. No need for planning, just go! It was amazing! I loved it so much.

It's not bad, depending on the weather. Sometimes the weather is too bad, so there's no need to go up to the crater, and you won't see what you want to see. The lunch environment is good and the food is delicious.

Basically, you just follow the scheduled times to take the transportation. The price is essentially the same as buying it yourself. The only difference is that you don't have to plan anything, but you also don't have a tour guide and have to take the transportation yourself. Spending nearly three hours at Kusasenri was a bit too long, and then only having an hour and a half at Aso Station, and not enough time to visit Aso Shrine with not much else to see nearby, was a bit of a shame. However, overall, it was still quite convenient.

Although there was no tour guide, all the tickets were arranged. Basically, there was no problem getting on the bus at the suggested time. It's just that sometimes there are many people waiting for the bus, so you need to go early to queue. The beef burger for lunch was delicious and had a high cost-performance ratio.

As this tour is unguided, you will need to make your own way to the bus stop and take buses to each attraction. The bus ticket to Mount Aso crater is not included and must be purchased separately. However, since it's only possible to know on the day itself whether access is permitted, its exclusion is understandable.
