Passeios por Aso Farm Land

This time, participating in the "Kyushu Takachiho One-Day Tour" was a great experience, and the overall itinerary was very well-arranged. I highly recommend it! We comfortably took a direct bus from Kumamoto Station and were able to visit Takachiho Gorge, Mount Aso, and Kusasenri all in one day. There was no need to transfer or plan transportation ourselves, which was very convenient for independent travelers. Although we couldn't go up to the Aso crater today and the boat ride was under maintenance, the overall experience was still excellent, and I believe this is an opportunity to revisit this place in the future! I especially recommend our guide, Mr. Sun. He professionally introduced a lot of Kumamoto's history and stories about the attractions along the way. The atmosphere was relaxed and interesting, making it easy to listen attentively. Mr. Sun was also very thoughtful and cared for every traveler, actively helping to take photos at each scenic spot, and recommending delicious food and souvenirs. Thanks to Mr. Sun, the entire trip was even better! Today was a wonderful and worthwhile one-day tour! I truly recommend this itinerary 👍

I was honored to be the first tourist on this route. Our guide, Daisy, was very enthusiastic and friendly, and the driver was excellent. Due to the recent closure of Mount Aso, this attraction was replaced with Takachiho Shrine. Afterwards, we visited Takachiho Gorge. After lunch, we gathered and departed for Kusasenri. By the way, it's best to bring your own food for lunch, as there aren't many restaurant options near this attraction. Kusasenri was beautiful, and we stayed for about an hour. Then we went to Komezuka, staying for about 10 minutes. We were very lucky that the clouds parted, and we saw the "matcha pudding" on an overcast day. Afterwards, we drove to Aso Station, and the scenery along the way was beautiful. A small suggestion: it would have been even better if we could have stopped for a while where the cattle and horses were grazing. We arrived at Aso Station around 15:30, just in time to briefly look around the station before boarding the Aso Boy train. Since I was the only tourist on this route, I joined a group with other passengers who did not have the express train included. The guide thoughtfully booked a window seat for me. The highlight of the Aso Boy train is in the first half, where the scenery feels like something out of a fairy tale, and there are also play facilities on board for children. We arrived in Kumamoto around 17:00, which was a perfect time to have dinner and do some shopping nearby. All in all, it was a very memorable experience.

The tour was great and well organized, but the best praise should go to our tour guide (Ada) because the bus was packed with people and the itinerary is intense. Most people spoke Mandarin and very few English speakers attended today, but she managed the situations really well and gave us tips and shortcuts. I didn’t feel like a solo traveler at all. She was there for photos and advice.

Jessie war fürsorglich, höflich und sehr geduldig mit meiner Frau und meinem Sohn. Ihre Herzlichkeit machte unsere Reise angenehm und unvergesslich. Wir wussten ihre Führung den ganzen Tag über sehr zu schätzen.

The experience was quite good, a very enjoyable one-day tour. We visited attractions like Mount Aso Crater, Aso Shrine, and Kusasenri, which are less convenient to reach by public transport. It saved us a lot of hassle; we just got on the bus to rest and got off to take photos. Our tour guide, Ms. Zhou, was enthusiastic and cheerful, helped everyone take pictures, and also shared some knowledge. I will definitely look for another tour when I visit Kyushu again.

Tour guide Yang Meng was very attentive and responsible. Besides introducing attractions, she also recommended other famous restaurants and sights to us 👍👍. The itinerary was well-planned and efficient, offering great value for money. Highly recommended!

Me encantó el viaje y la guía, ¡Kong! Compartió muchos datos interesantes e historia sobre las áreas y Kumamoto. Se nota la pasión que tiene por su trabajo. Proactivamente nos tomó fotos, incluso siendo un grupo grande de 46 personas. Gestionó todo el día de manera excelente y eficiente. Explicó claramente todo lo que necesitábamos saber e incluso nos envió mensajes para mantenernos informados. Lástima que no pudimos acercarnos al volcán Aso y no hubo paseo en barco. ¡Quizás sea una señal de que debo volver!

This itinerary offers excellent value for money, perfect for tourists traveling from Fukuoka to Kumamoto. Takachiho Gorge is located in Miyazaki Prefecture, while Mount Aso Crater and Kusasenri are in Kumamoto Prefecture, allowing you to visit two major attractions across Kyushu in one day. The time spent at Takachiho Gorge was sufficient, even though we didn't manage to get a boating experience; walking along the valley was very relaxing. We were lucky today as the Nakadake Crater was open, and although it was a bit foggy, the scenery at Kusasenri was beautiful. We saw Komezuka, which looked like a matcha pudding, and enjoyed milk ice cream and milk. The grey building on the first floor had many souvenirs, where we bought coffee and fridge magnets. On the return journey, we took the Aso Boy train back to Kumamoto, which was super cute. A truly worthwhile trip!
