FULL ITINERARY
Ship Arrival at Beppu Port
Your ship docks at Beppu Port, marking the start of one of the most refined Beppu shore excursions, carefully designed by Shore Excursions Asia for cruise guests who value comfort and authenticity.
You are welcomed by your private English speaking guide and driver, holding a personalized welcome board. A smooth meet and greet is followed by boarding a comfortable chartered car or coach, allowing the tour to begin promptly and ensuring the 5 hour schedule is used efficiently while maintaining a relaxed pace.
Beppu Jigoku Tour
The experience continues at the famous Beppu Jigoku, known collectively as the Hells of Beppu. This geothermal area presents the dramatic natural forces that have shaped Beppu into Japan’s leading hot spring destination.
Sea Hell impresses with its vivid blue waters and rising steam, widely recognized as the symbol of Beppu’s onsen culture. Blood Pond Hell, the oldest natural hell in Japan, reveals a deep red surface created by mineral rich clay deposits. Waterspout Hell offers a rare sight of a geyser erupting in regular cycles, highlighting the power beneath the ground. White Pond Hell completes the visit with a calm milky white pool set within a peaceful garden environment.
Clear explanations from your guide add cultural and geological context, turning each stop into a meaningful highlight rather than a simple photo stop.
Myoban Onsen and Yunohana Yunosato
The route leads to the hillside area of Myoban Onsen, an area known for its traditional atmosphere and gentle mountain scenery. A visit to Yunohana Yunosato introduces one of the last remaining places where natural onsen minerals are still produced using centuries old techniques.
Thatched Yunohana Goya huts line the site, creating a quiet and authentic setting. The sulfur scented air and slower pace of life provide a refreshing contrast to the intensity of the hells, offering a deeper understanding of Beppu’s long standing hot spring culture.
Return to Beppu Port
A comfortable drive returns you to Beppu Port in good time for your ship’s departure. The experience concludes with lasting impressions of Beppu’s geothermal landscapes and traditional onsen heritage.
