The first stop in the morning went to Kusakami, unfortunately the fog is very large Observation platform scenery is affected by fog, the first floor business in front of a horse meat grill quite delicious, souvenir shop goods many good to buy, but the second floor self-service ordering machine meals mediocre, but the buffet area of rice and miso soup good, then go to the color see Bear Shrine take pictures, the third stop take the small train train chief arrives at the fixed point will have bubbles take pictures, the last stop Takachiho Pass, the bus stopped at the third parking lot to walk a long way to reach the boating area, but really quite beautiful, return to take the shuttle or the taxi next to it will not be too hard!
The scenery was beautiful, and the boat trip was so much fun that it was definitely worth the trip! Brother Sun from Gogoday was very responsible, and thanks to his recommendation, I was able to choose the most unique Aso volcano ash souvenir. It's completely exclusive to this area and can only be found here. I'm so happy!
The grass turned into fog, and the Aso Boys event was temporarily suspended, which was a bit disappointing. However, the friendliness of the local merchants and the delicious souvenirs made up for the aforementioned shortcomings.
I was the only Japanese person out of 26 people, but I had a very enjoyable trip without any problems. The guide was very cheerful and kind, and provided perfect support for everyone. The meals were varied, plentiful, and delicious. I was very satisfied with the price for such a comfortable bus trip.
