Excellent Beppu afternoon tour!
We had a great time seeing some of the highlights of Beppu. Our guide Milly was very friendly and knowledgeable, and really made it an enjoyable tour! Bus fare and entry to attractions was included so all we had to do was explore, take photos and eat snacks. Thanks Milly!

One must not missed! Is the best we have experience the mother nature. All were separated and have to walk from one point to another. Staff were awesome and friendly. Able to converse in English.
