Join this private day trip to Mount Aso, one of Japan's most famous active volcanoes, and the historic Kumamoto Castle. Learn about the history of the castle and see the moving part of the volcano, Nakadake Crater.

First, be taken to Mount Aso in Kumamoto Prefecture. It is part of one of the world's biggest calderas, which were formed by earthquakes in the past. See the moving part of the volcano, Nakadake Crater, from this spot. From certain vantage points, you can safely see this natural show. From these places, see the sulphurous steam rising from the crater, which is a reminder of Japan's volcanic activity.

Next, head to Kumamoto Castle, one of Japan's most famous castles, known for its huge stone walls and defense structures. Built in the early 1600s, the castle has been carefully repaired and kept. Learn all about the history of this famous castle. On the inside of the castle, look at displays of samurai armor, old weapons, and items from Japan's medieval era.
