Japan
This city, the king of Japan’s hot springs, promises both relaxation at a spa and a chance to learn about renowned Japanese cultural traditions
Beppu, located in Ōita Prefecture on the island of Kyushu, Japan, is renowned as the king of hot springs. Nestled amid mountains and highlands, the city's western region boasts scenic spots such as the Yufugawa Canyon and Aso Kujū National Park. Beppu is most famous for its geothermal wonders: it houses eight major geothermal hot spots, often dubbed the "eight hells of Beppu". These springs are too hot for bathing, but the surrounding facilities have earned the nickname 'Samurai Spa'. Known as 'onsen' in Japanese, each of these hot spring stations offers modern pools, as well as traditional ryokan accommodations with excellent bathing facilities. Beppu doesn't stop at typical hot springs; it also provides sand and foot baths. A notable spot is the "Beppu Kaihin Sunayu, Ashiyu" or "Beppu marine beach sand bath and foot bath". Beyond its baths, Beppu has a rich history in bamboo crafts, making them a perfect souvenir from the city.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
