Devenez Local ! Visite à pied des arts, métiers et culture Onsen
Description
Envie d'éviter les hauts lieux touristiques bondés et d'explorer des zones plus « locales » que vous ne trouverez probablement pas dans une brochure de voyage ? Lors de cette visite à pied exclusive en petit groupe, vous plongerez dans l'histoire et la culture tout en vous promenant dans les rues du centre-ville* de Beppu. Découvrez le travail et la vie quotidienne des artistes locaux qui vivent ici, visitez une usine d'artisanat en bambou** et profitez d'une chance rare de rencontrer des artisans qualifiés face à face. La visite se termine par la visite d'une maison japonaise centenaire comprenant une galerie d'art contemporain et une boutique de souvenirs. La maison dispose également d'une salle d'histoire présentant des photographies historiques du passé de Beppu. *Sachez que: a) cette visite ne couvre PAS les lieux touristiques populaires (comme les « enfers »), mais met en valeur les rues et ruelles culturelles les moins connues de la ville, et b) vous ne serez pas montré à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment onsen **Veuillez également noter qu'en raison de la possibilité que les commerces varient les heures d'ouverture, l'itinéraire et les lieux visités peuvent être sujets à changement.

Itinéraire
Soyez témoin de première main d'un marché local vendant du poisson et des légumes frais et profitez d'une rare occasion d'interagir avec les résidents japonais locaux.
Depuis sa création en 1908, vous pourrez observer des produits en bambou méticuleusement fabriqués par des artisans qualifiés, à partir de bambou local de la préfecture d'Oita. En plus de voir les artisans au travail, vous pourrez également acheter des produits en bambou : des souvenirs idéaux et uniques à emporter chez vous !
Il s'agit d'un atelier irrégulier et imprévu. Nous ne pouvons offrir cette expérience que lorsque l'instructeur a des disponibilités.
Beppu est sans aucun doute un paradis pour les arts et l'artisanat, et les amateurs d'art sauteront sur l'occasion de rencontrer les résidents du Kiyoshima Apartment, une résidence de créateurs et un studio d'art au centre-ville de Beppu. En plus de voir une variété d'œuvres exposées, vous pourrez peut-être même voir les artistes travailler sur leurs différents projets.
Un espace communautaire et boutique excentrique dans une maison Japonaise centenaire rénovée, il y en a pour tous les goûts à Space Beppu. Doté d'une salle d'histoire contenant d'anciennes photographies de Beppu dans le passé, ainsi que d'une petite galerie d'art présentant d'autres pièces des résidents de Kiyoshima Apartment, vous pourrez vous détendre et vous détendre dans une charmante maison où l'ancien et le moderne se rencontrent en harmonie.

This was a great experience. Very informative and enthusiastic guide! Thank you for the great tour. I was able to speak to a local artist, a local performer and a local artisan. It was fascinating to learn about Beppu’s growing art scene. Very authentic and honest details about the city and culture. I recommend this tour!
Audrey was a fantastic guide! She knew the ins and outs of Beppu, showing us places that the typical tourist wouldn't see. For example, we went to a 100 year old bamboo factory where the work was all done by hand, as it had been hundreds of years ago. We learned about the population in Beppu and the culture there. Audrey was very flexible as to how much time we spent in each place and listened to what we wanted to do. I highly recommend her for this tour.
Dear Jan and Marcus, Thank you very much for joining our tour! It was a true pleasure meeting you both. :) I’m so happy to hear you had a great time with us. Wishing you a safe and wonderful continuation of your journey. And you are always welcome back to Beppu anytime! Audreay
Fantastic experience! Friendly enthusiastic guide, thorough interesting details on areas we walked, toured a bamboo craft factory, and at the end supported at their maker shop. Highly recommended! Much love for Space Beppu crew. Thanks for a great time.
This tour was off the beaten path. We were able to visit the last working bamboo factory in Beppu. We also learned about the onsen culture and visited an artist workspace. Lily was our tour guide and we really appreciated her pacing and communication style. We highly recommend this tour.
Wow!!! That was great!!! Very great!! Thank you very much!:) Authentic Japan. Not where "everyone" is, but to the "locals." I like Japan, crafts/art and photography, so it was perfect. Absolute recommendation!! 😍😎🙏
It was a really interesting look into lesser-seen parts of Beppu that really enriched my time in Beppu! Each stop was a unique and interesting experience and although one of the normal tour stops was not available, the replacement was even more suitable for me. It was just me and the tour guide, so I was able to ask lots of questions and have good conversation with the guide. They even returned my wallet to me at their recommended lunch spot after I took off without it.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed exploring the lesser-known parts of Beppu and that each stop felt unique. It’s wonderful to hear that the one-on-one time with the guide made the tour even more special, and we’re glad your wallet was safely returned! We hope to welcome you back for another memorable adventure in Beppu!
Wonderful private walking tour in Beppu. Highlight was visiting a locals house and playing the harp with her. She served tea and we also had an origami lesson. This tour was very art focused.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the walking tour, especially the harp session. It’s great to hear the art-focused experience made your visit memorable. We hope to welcome you again in Beppu!
Fascinating walk through back streets of Beppu and the bamboo factory is not too be missed. Very knowledgeable tour guide Lou.
Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed exploring Beppu’s back streets and the bamboo factory. Loi will be thrilled to hear your kind words. We hope to see you again for more unique experiences!
Disappointing tour did not get a view of onsens an important aspect of the town. The art scene is a shack uninhabited aside from 2 artists and a student gathering house.
Dear Wendy, Thank you for your honest review. We are sorry to hear how unsatisfied you were with our walking tour. Having spoken at length with your tour guide, it seems that you were made aware that it would not be possible to enter an onsen. However, upon reflection I do admit that the name of the tour - 'A Walking Tour of Beppu's Arts, Crafts & Onsen' - is indeed misleading, and it will duly be changed. The focus of this tour is not the highlights of Beppu, but rather the city's lesser-known, non-touristic 'downtown' area - a chance to step into the culture and daily lives of the locals who live and work there. The artists' house you were shown is very typical of such Japanese 'downtown' streetscapes, and we are sincerely sorry that it did not impress you.
Hana-san, our guide was so fun. She showed us so many interesting places. I loved the koto lesson. Seeing the beppu project was fascinating. Space beppu has many experiences. We also loved the summer fun with flowing noodles. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy.
Thank you for joining the walking tour and enjoying the flowing noodles! We are so glad to hear you loved the whole experience—the koto lesson, exploring the Beppu Project, and Space Beppu. It was a pleasure guiding you all, and we wish these memories stay with you for a long time. Looking forward to seeing you again! Hana
