After meeting at the entrance of Aso Station, we start the tour with an introduction to Mt. Aso and our grasslands.
Then, on to the gear: we’ll take our bicycles for a test before going our way.
Beginners are welcome too, must you need help for the bicycle’s use, your guide will explain everything. No need for extreme bicycling skills, as they are electrically assisted!
From the bottom of the caldera at Aso Station, at about 500 meter above sea level, to the Aso Nakadake crater (elevation 1,300m), there is an elevation difference of 800m. (2600ft)
You then get to enjoy the best views of the mount Aso crater. Going back down, the caldera opens up in front of you. Aso's magnificent nature awaits you here.
We’ll end our tour at the entrance of JR Aso Stn, unless you booked a ride to your accommodation.
We can also guide you to a hot spring after the tour to unwind and relax in the caldera.

On this private tour, an expert guide take you to the spectacular views of Mt.Aso and grasslands that are normally inaccessible In the great nature of the Aso Kuju national park without exhaust gas or noise, you can feel the heartbeat of Aso's earth and the wind of the grasslands. Even travelers who have come to Aso many times will be surprised on this tour. Most of them say, "This is the first time I've seen such a spectacular view of Aso." Climb up to the Aso Nakadake crater at 1260m high through the road called "kusa no michi", or the "weeds' road" which was once a path for mountain ascetics, and get up close to the crater emitting smoke. If you are not confident in your physical strength, the electric motor will provide powerful assistance, so you can participate comfortably and with ease. You can leave your luggage with us, so you can enjoy the grasslands of Aso in a light style. A portion of the tour participation fee will be returned to the grassland Association as funds for conservation activities of the "Millennium Grassland." Your participation in this tour will help preserve the grassland, and you will become a "guardian of the grassland".

If you looking for a crater tripoff the beaten track than this is the one. Joe, the guide, has special access to an area with no tourist. It was a pure and exceptional tour. The bikes, the views, were just great. Joe is an excellent guide, good communication before the trip and prepared everything so well. You are in safe and good hands with Joe. De e bikes are in good condition and Joe follows with a car which is really practical and a safety net for just in case. You leave your stuff with Joe and you can cycle without any bags and other stuff. He also makes beautiful pictures during the trip. So instead of taking the car, take this great e-bike tour.

We did the 90 minute crater ride, but unfortunately the crater was closed that day due to toxic gas. Joe still found a beautiful and interesting route for us, including a lava cave and a bumpy grassland to put the mountain bikes through their paces. Joe spoke very good English and taught us about the area as well as a little Japanese. He's also had a very interesting life as a helicopter rescue worker and firefighter and is a very nice person, and he's an Aso native, so he's the best guide you could ask for! Domo arigato gozaimashita, Joe-san!

The guide "Joe" (if I recall correctly, it's been many months!) was so nice, fun, and engaging. The scenery was amazing and Joe knows everything about the area. I had a fall on my bike at one point and, being an EMT, he quickly applied the right type of first aid. Helmets were supplied. The bikes worked well. We felt safe the entire time and it was a really pleasant afternoon.

I had a great time with Joe-san and his teammate Fuji-san. They were very friendly and helpful. They also took lots of pictures and sent over to me afterwards. They also took time to explain to me the scenery along the route. Awesome customer service & and great experience. Like others have mentioned, the part where you ride across the grassland is exciting but a bit skill demanding. If you aren't super experienced with mountain bike, be sure to let the guide know beforehand. Other than that part, the riding experience was very smooth. I highly recommend this tour to everyone - it's one of my most memorable experiences in Japan.

please do not hesitate to book this tour!!! i had such an amazing day, such a surreal experience, it was 100% worth it. Joe san, Fuji san, and Asa san were so kind and amazing. they were so attentive and ensured the entire experience was seamless. it wasn't just a bike ride, Joe san made sure to point out points of interest and we took breaks off the bike to get a closer look at things. he explained how lava created a cave we explored, cow herding patterns and a lot more! we saw so much i'm genuinely surprised how much ground we covered. it was amazing to see the contrast between the volcanic areas and the grassland areas and you get to bike through both. Joe takes photos the entire time so it was such a nice bonus to be able to get to keep a record of this great day :) him and his team are great photographers so the photos came out so nicely! the scenery in this area is genuinely so unreal, this is honestly the best way to experience it in my opinion. also wanted to shout out the admin office for helping me plan everything! as a foreigner, the buses were intimidating to me and Hideki helped me make bus reservations and organized everything and always very prompt in his responses. he even gave me advice on planning a separate itinerary item. this experience and this team made my experience in kyushu so memorable i can't thank you guys enough, this was honestly the highlight of my trip! tip: also inquire about their daikanbo experiences!! i went rappelling in the morning and that was such a unique experience!

Great ride with Joe-San and Fuji-San. Using the bikes saved us from the long traffic line of cars - plus we enjoyed numerous scenic views with no crowds. The only cautionary note is that you should be in reasonably ok shape for this tour. Battery powered bikes are used, but you still have to work a bit to get up the mountain. There is a little bit of offroading fun as well. You should be comfortable riding a bike for four hours, with breaks for views, photos, water etc. I would do this tour again.

Excellent day, one of the best … and most memorable tours we have done … in the world. The e-bikes do most of the uphill work. You can get into the back of the small truck if you get tired, but didn’t need to (age 67). Joe (guide) and Fuji (support driver) know all the best volcano photo sights and sent us their great photos that night. Being ‘Golden week’ in Japan, the line of visitor traffic went for kilometres. So much more pleasurable riding through grassland trails (past hundreds of patiently waiting cars) to be first up to the volcano (after the park closed for 20 minutes because of a ‘blue gas’ warning.) Blue sky after days of rain further made the day perfect.

I like to travel by E-bike, especially in this beautiful natural place. We went to Aso and visited the cows and horses in the mountains. They are so free! I will definitely try it again when I visit Aso.

It was a wonderful cycling trip that allowed us to cycle through the grasslands of Aso. In addition, because the guide provided commentary, we were able to learn about the characteristics of the land of Aso and enjoy Aso's nature even more. We were able to go to places that we would not normally be able to go to, so I think it was an experience that allowed us to fully enjoy Aso.

Incredible adventure. Taichou was very kind and encouraged us a lot throughout the journey. He also took beautiful photos of us while we were riding the bikes. Highly recommended. It's totally worth it Experience 10/10
