Experience a unique adventure on the Jigoku Meguri Hells Tour of Beppu, Oita. This tour takes visitors to seven spectacular hot springs known as “hells” due to their mysterious and temperamental properties. Take in the astonishing views of boiling water and gas bubbles, the iron oxide-rich steam and bubbling mud that rise up from the Earth's surface. With the Meguri Pass, it is possible to explore all seven hells within two to two and a half hours. From Umi Jigoku - the largest and deepest hell – to Chinoike Jigoku - the oldest and noted for its blood-red boiling clay - there is something truly captivating around every corner. Plus, don't forget to try the local specialty "Jigoku Mushi" meaning hell-steamed food. It is a must-try experience!
