Rural Forestry Tour in Aso Minamioguni, Kumamoto Prefecture

This is a unique chance to experience life in rural Japan through a local's eyes. Access areas and meet people that would be impossible without the presence of the guide.

Enjoy unique interaction while delving into true Japanese forestry culture. Be mesmerized by the beautiful and unique landscape, born through a long history of living in symbiosis with the mountains and planting cedar trees.

All while having your own private guide who is knowledgable and can explain the history of not only the area but the Japanese forestry.

But more than anything, this tour aims to be about interaction with locals. As a guide, I wish the meeting between visitors and locals to feel like me introducing friends to each other.

The area around Mt. Aso is one of Japan's best-hidden treasures and this is your shortcut to experiencing it. True Japanese culture, food, hospitality, and much much more.

Take a chance, step off the beaten track, and come join us for an amazing time in Aso!
