A self-driving tour of Mount Aso is very convenient. Departing from a hotel near Kumamoto Airport at 10:00 AM, the drive takes about 40 minutes to reach Kusasenri. You can stop at the observation deck for photos. If there are many people, you can drive directly to the parking lot in front of the Mount Aso Museum (parking fee is generally 500 yen for four-wheeled vehicles). After taking photos and resting, continue driving for less than 10 minutes to reach the bus stop, which is also the entrance to the volcano. Further in, there are two control points: the first informs visitors that those with asthma or related illnesses are advised against going up the crater; the second is for parking, which costs 1000 yen per vehicle. Continue driving for about 5 to 10 minutes to reach the crater parking lot. After parking, you can walk to the crater for photos. If the wind direction changes, staff will restrict entry, and you will need to wait for the wind to change before you can enter again.
