Beppu Tours

This is Beppu in Oita Prefecture.  Please click on view larger map to see more of Oita Prefecture in reference to its proximity to other locations in Kyushu.



It is a location that is full of nature and has the largest volume of volcanic groundwater and as a result natural Hot Springs in Japan.  In fact, the region of Beppu releases 36 million gallons daily (136 million litres) of pure mineral rich and therefore considered highly therapeutic.  It is said that daily bathing will cure many different types of diseases and ailments.  Why don't you try for yourself and find out why Hot Springs are so popular and interconnected in the lives of so many Japanese people?

These tours are generally for clients who have a specific purpose or who want to visit a special attraction that is not really accessible by public transport.  Pick up's are generally from city hotels but train stations and airports are quite common places to start and end the day.  These tours tend to start earlier and finish later with most tours around 10 to 12 hours in length.

NB; It is worth noting that pick up's at Fukuoka hotel's and drop off at Oita Hotel's and vice versa are entirely possible.
