Highlights

Fancy avoiding crowded touristic hotspots and exploring more 'local' areas you likely wouldn't find in a travel brochure? In this exclusive, small-group walking tour, you'll immerse yourself in history & culture whilst strolling through the streets of downtown Beppu.
Experience the work and daily lives of the local artists who live here, visit a bamboo craft factory
* and enjoy a rare chance to meet skilled artisans face to face.


The tour culminates in a visit to a century-old Japanese house comprising a contemporary art gallery and gift shop. The house also features a history room showcasing historic photographs of Beppu’s past.


*Please be aware that:
a) this tour does NOT cover popular touristic spots (such as the 'Hells'), but showcases the city's lesser-known cultural streets & alleys, and
b) you will not be shown inside an onsen building


**Please also note that due to the possibility of businesses varying opening times, the route & places visited may be subject to change.
