We had a really nice day in Beppu with our guide! She was amazing!! We saw everything we wanted to see especially for my wife ! She really wanted to see the monkeys and we were not disappointed.
As well the hot springs and other local attractions!!
Enjoyed the day with our tour guide Kei. Our ship had been diverted because of a typhoon so we booked last minute. Kei did a fantastic job showing us the overview, saw really interesting things and we ate a a restaurant where the food was cooked over the natural steam from the ground. We stop to see the monkeys at the reserve. Absolutely a 5 star day.
This tour was customizable and flexible (for us, based on weather). We made some itinerary changes in the moment--since the weather was heavily overcast and foggy. The tour company was completely flexible to show us places that interested us; the itinerary provided was simply suggested spots of interest, but we varied from them and visited beautiful Lake Shidaka. The company owner, Kei was great at communicating with us through WhatsApp, confirming our arrival details and updates for our tour as necessary. We saw the highlights of Beppu, and also got to experience a couple of hidden treasures. Thank you to Kei and also our guide, Kana.

Thank you so much! Even with the foggy weather, we're really glad we could adapt the route on the fly and that you enjoyed Lake Shidaka. Both Kana and I loved showing you around—hope to welcome you back to Beppu anytime!
Jun was very knowledgeable and very flexible in terms of customizing the tour. A wonderful and interesting day in Beppu.

Thank you so much! Jun will be thrilled to hear this—he loves tailoring each day so guests get the most out of their trip. So glad you had such a fun and memorable time in Beppu, and we hope to see you again someday!
Our guide Kai was amazing. He took us to hot springs, assisted in shopping and we also went to Monkey Mountain. We ate lunch at a local Hot springs cooked restaurant where he assisted us with food selections. We learned a lot about the local people living in Beppo on a walking tour after lunch.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I had such a great time spending the day with you, from Monkey Mountain to that onsen-steamed lunch and our stroll through town. It was a real pleasure sharing everyday life in Beppu with you—hope to see you again someday!
I was impressed by the overall service provided by Kei from Kyushu Immersion. Knowing that it was my first visit to Beppu with my family, he has given good recommendation of some of the to-go places within the time frame. When I told him that I found out about the Kyushu Wildlife Park African Safari, even though he has never organised a tour to there, he had gone the extra mile to find out the details, customised the original itinerary to fit what I wanted. As the day of the visit happened to be the King's birthday (23 Feb), he had also given me the heads-up on the crowd, waiting time as well as the sold-out situation of the tram. At the same time, he planned the time well such that we are still able to visit some of the most popular and must-see places in Beppu. Time was well-spent and impressed by his attention to details as well. He was very courteous, kind and knowledgeable. I was very impressed by the overall planning as well as his level of service provided. Would definitely highly recommend him to any visitors to Beppu and should I revisit and require tour guides, I will not hesitate to reach out to him again.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a generous and thoughtful review!
It was an absolute pleasure welcoming you and your family to Beppu for the first time.
Planning the African Safari visit on a busy holiday was a fun challenge, and I’m really glad the timing worked out smoothly so you could enjoy both the park and the town's highlights.
Your kind words about my service and attention to detail mean a great deal to me.
Whenever your travels bring your family back to Kyushu, I would be thrilled to show you around again!
Jun was a great guide, knowledgable, informative and very friendly. His English was great and he was really friendly.

Thank you for your cooperation and praise for our guide. Your feedback means lots to our guides.
A wonderful private tour in the guide's own car. Hence only 5 per party. However, Kyushu Immersion group helped us arrange for 6 family members to share one lovely guided tour of the
Beppu! We did all the must see springs and sights of Beppu without any stress. No rush of one attraction to the other. Nor jostling with large groups of other tour groups. Our guide Jun was so kind and patient with all of us. We had mobility issues and yet could be accommodated. This is a must do tour if you rather have leisurely trip without any stress.

Thank you for choosing our tour for your lovely family trip to Beppu. Hope you enjoyed the private bathes at the end of our tour too. Look forward to serving you in again the future.
Private tours are a great way to visit the sights of Beppu. For less than what we would have paid to do a bus tour shore excursion from our cruise ship, we had a private English-speaking tour guide (Ayu) who could answer any questions we had about what we were seeing and life in Oita Prefecture. Since we moved at our own pace, not only were we able to see all seven of the “Hells of Beppu,” we also got to steam a snack in a hot springs restaurant, visit a monkey park and have a delicious meal of local noodles and mochi. Plus, the guide took photos of us with her own camera and sent them to us later. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who is tired of big bus tours and likes personalized touring.

Thank you very much for sharing the wonderful experience with our guide in Beppu. This is also thanks to your cooperation to bring our tour in timely manner. Hope to see you in Kyushu in the future.
Kei was a wonderful tour guide. He took us to to eat at a small diner with great food. The vehicle was clean and very comfortable. We wanted to have a personal experience and my family enjoy our time in Beppu . Got to see hell and a few other places. We had a great time if you want a one on one personal experience go with Kei.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for your review. We are more than happy to spend the pretty day with you and your family in Beppu.
Our tour guide, Ayu, was great! We were able to see all the Hell holes, do some shopping and enjoy a great lunch with her guidance. Ayu is personable, warm and attentive.
