    A well-paced and informative tour that dives deep into Beppu’s geographical and cultural history of onsen. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. My favourite was the Kannawa Onsen District, where we walked around, had lunch and got to experience the day in the life of Japanese residents (going to onsens). We also stopped at a foot bath to soak our feet in the warm 50’C water before heading back. Overall, we had a great time! Would highly recommend for families or people who prefer a more relaxing and local experience.

    Very detailed and informative trip!! The view is crazy! The stream coming out from the ground making the place otherworldly. It was such a great experience that I was explained in detail how the onsen formed in Beppu! I would say that was really a healing trip🫶🏻 Will definitely recommend to family as well

    For those who want to experience Beppu that is curated to YOU, this is definitely for YOU! First, the guide was very warm, friendly, and fun to talk to. Asking questions about Japan life and Beppu builds up more of my curiosity beyond going around the city as a tourist. I ended the tour to become someone knowledgeable, full of passion and curiosity, and most importantly--- a productive tourist. Thank you, Glide Japan. For this valuable and meaningful journey, it has been added to my memory of a lifetime.
