Kumamoto Departure: Kurokawa Onsen Village Day Trip (Including Tofu Cuisine Lunch)

Plenty of free time,
Kurokawa Onsen, where we can enjoy ourselves

Have you ever had a hard time following the tour schedule and course? If so, we introduce a tour that provides transportation and meals, and allows you to create your own route during your free time!

Depart from central Kumamoto and take a direct bus to Kurokawa Onsen Village to freely visit the places you want. There is no set course, so you can adjust the schedule to suit your pace as you just board the bus at the meeting time.

A town filled with traditional hot spring ryokans

I will introduce you to Kurokawa, a hot spring town in a mountain valley that may still be unfamiliar to Koreans. Unlike Yufuin, which has a strong image of being a cute tourist destination, Kurokawa is a town with a stronger traditional hot spring color. It is impressive that it exists for the hot spring itself, not for the purpose of tourism.

For those who want to relax and unwind in a ryokan hot spring rather than sightseeing here and there, I highly recommend Kurokawa, as it offers a more peaceful and relaxing atmosphere than other famous hot springs in Kyushu!

My own hot spring that I find with my mapa

There is a unique system called 'Mapae (Nyutotegata)' in Kurokawa Onsen Village. With the Mapae, you can use the open-air baths of your choice among the 27 inns in Kurokawa Onsen. It is a great system that allows you to use the hot springs without staying at the inn.

You can use the pass to enter the hot springs 3 times, or you can use it to enter the hot springs 2 times + purchase food or souvenirs. This pass can be purchased at the Kurikawa Onsen Information Center and each hot spring for 1,500 yen for adults, so we recommend using it!

A refined tofu set meal at 'Kissho'

Even in Kurokawa, where there are many delicious restaurants, a bamboo set meal is prepared for lunch at the carefully selected tofu specialty restaurant 'Kissho'.

They say that they use tofu made in a traditional way using carefully selected soybeans, natural brine, and the clear water of the Kurokawa River!

* Please refer to the official website for restaurant details.
