Most of these days run crater first, then the long road south out of the caldera to the gorge, with Kusasenri as a leg-stretch on the way. Two hours in a coach sounds grim, but the views off the rim make it pass quickly.
See Aso’s volcanic country, Kusasenri grassland and Takachiho Gorge on a long day trip from Fukuoka, with an optional rowboat ride.
