    Purpose:Sightseeing

    Until now, the only means of transportation from Aso to Takachiho was by rental car or cab, which was inconvenient. Moreover, it took about 1 hour and 15 minutes one way by car, which was a hassle. Now that the new air stations have been opened in Aso and Takachiho, it has become very convenient. Aso Heliport has a shuttle service, so we were able to move smoothly after getting off the helicopter.

    Purpose:Sightseeing

    My wife and I used this service from Takachiho to Aso. After enjoying Ryokan Shinsen and Takachiho Gorge, we took the helicopter to Aso. From Shinsen, we were given a free shuttle to Takachiho Heliport.
