A duo of activities highlights some of the best of Beppu and its surrounding areas on this half-day excursion. The extravaganza begins with some monkey business! Board your motorcoach and enjoy a scenic drive to Mt. Takasaki Monkey Park, a forested mountain and home to over 1,500 wild Japanese monkeys. These primates are quite accustomed to visitors, and it is possible to get very close in order to take their pictures! Then, return to Beppu to experience the town's celebrated hot springs, the Jigoku Meguri - or "Boiling Hells." Intended for viewing rather than bathing, the springs were given their name because it was said that these mysterious, steamy attractions resembled a scene from hell. Return to port having seen two of the most popular sites in Beppu.
