Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Shuttle bus to Mount Aso included: Kumamoto Castle + Mount Aso + Kusasenri Day Trip
Guest User2025-11-15
Our tour guide, Ms. Zhuo, was incredibly genuine, with a wonderful personality and a straightforward nature. Unlike other tour guides who are often driven by self-interest, she genuinely shared the best local food and attractions with us. The entire trip was very relaxing and perfectly planned, making for a smooth day. We avoided traffic jams and didn't waste any time. It was the luckiest trip of our entire trip, and I'd love to see her again! The driver was also a wonderful presence, providing enthusiastic and engaging explanations that were especially entertaining.

The meeting point was right by the Starbucks at the east-shiroku exit of Hakata Station, and we departed right on time. Some tourists overslept and didn't even wait. They were very punctual. The bus was in excellent condition, with plenty of air conditioning. The guide was very welcoming. Kumamoto Castle and Mount Aso were both great. Despite the heat, Kumamoto Castle was worth visiting; it's air-conditioned and offers a panoramic view from above. There were also many delicious dishes on the first floor. The horse meat fried cakes were delicious, and the limited-edition watermelon soda was very quenching. Due to Mount Aso's active season, we couldn't get the bus to our nearest viewing location, which was a shame. The ice cream on the mountain was delicious and worth trying. The set lunch menu was also good, though a bit pricey up there. The air was nice, and walking on the grass was much cooler than at the foot of the mountain.
Reviews: Free Aso Volcano Shuttle Bus: Kumamoto Castle, Mt. Aso, and Kusasenri Day Trip

Our guide, Yoshitani, was very friendly! Unfortunately, it coincided with the "mountain scorching" (wildfire) of Mount Aso, a traditional event held annually in February and March in the Aso region of Kumamoto Prefecture. The aim is to maintain the vast grassland landscape, prevent deforestation, and prepare for new grass growth in spring by burning dry grass. Everything was a dark, smoky black. We'll have to come back another day!
Reviews: Departing from Kumamoto/Fukuoka, explore Kumamoto Castle + Kusasenri + Mount Aso + Aso Boy in Kyushu
Guest User2025-09-12
On the way there, we were told the crater was closed, but it actually opened during the drive. What a blessing! I was able to see it up close, and it was truly spectacular! For the return trip, we took the ASO Boy train. The scenery from the windows was like a cartoon. It was the most relaxing train ride! Our tour guide, Zheng Weijun, deserves special mention. He was dedicated, humorous, and a delight for the children! I was very satisfied with the entire day trip!
Reviews: [Lunch Included, Optional Boat Ticket] Japan Kyushu Takachiho Gorge + Kumamoto Aso Volcano Kusasenri Day Trip
Guest User2025-11-16
The itinerary was excellent and well-planned. The weather was perfect that day, allowing for close-up views of the crater. The scenery was beautiful, and the pace was relaxed and enjoyable. The tour guide spoke excellent Japanese, provided thorough explanations, and avoided being verbose or pushy. The beef set meal at the Chinese restaurant was also very good. This day trip is highly recommended. However, getting into Aso on your own is quite challenging, as it involves driving for over an hour through the mountains.

I specifically wanted to visit Aso, so I looked for a day trip. This tour was absolutely the best choice! Our guide, Takyeonji (Mira), took such great care of us that we had a wonderful time and took so many great photos! Thank you! Mount Aso is truly amazing, and the hot spring town is amazing too! Even if you don't soak in the hot springs, you can use the foot bath for free, which was a great touch.
