What the operator lists

The day, stop by stop

  1. Hakata Port Tower · 30 minAll in all, I rather enjoyed this experience. This attraction is a staple on my Fukuoka walking Tours and one day Driving Tours but only on sunny days where the weather warrants a climb to the highest point in Hakata. Cloudy and rainy days will rely more on cultural attractions rather than visual ones.
  2. Nanzoin Temple · 45 minA very interesting and remarkable Temple that has the largest reclining Buddha in Japan. A place that will not be forgotten any time soon. This attraction is only for Fukuoka itineraries.
  3. Dazaifu Temmangu · 45 minThe Granddaddy of all Shrines in Kyushu. This Shrine is dedicated to the Gods of Learning. Many cultural and spiritual experience to be had and seen here. This attraction is only for Fukuoka itineraries.
  4. Sakurai Futamigaura · 30 minCouples Rock is a beautiful scenic spot right on the Genkai Sea. This place has been selected as one of Japan’s 100 most scenic places and during summer when the days are at their longest, the final view of the sunset between the 2 rocks will leave a strong and lasting impression on even the least romantic people in…
  5. 30 minArguable the No 1 most famous and delicious Ramen in Fukuoka. Ramen lovers will be throughly impressed by the rich Umami flavor of the food, the history museum and seeing the production process right in front of their eyes. This attraction is only for Fukuoka itineraries.
  6. Suginoya Brewery · 30 minSuginoya Brewery is one of the most popular stops on our Fukuoka Day Tours. Why? It's all about the tradition of the Sake Brewing process, exploring the old but esthetically pleasing building as well as the tasting experience that gets everyone fully involved in the process.
  7. Yusentei Park · 30 minCome and see an incredible and picturesque Japanese Garden in all its glory. A beverage choice of coffee or Japanese Green Tea is included in the experience. This attraction is only for Fukuoka itineraries.
  8. Spectacles Bridge (Meganebashi) · 20 minThe Spectacle Bridge in Isahaya is a double arch stone bridge spanning a pond at Isahaya Park, which is one of the main sightseeing places of the area. The bridge is twice the size of the famous Spectacles Bridge in Nagasaki City and A nature lovers paradise! Location is only for Nagasaki itineraries.
  9. Fruits Bus Stop · 10 minIn the sleepy town of Konagai, Nagasaki Prefecture right on the border of Saga Prefecture there are some unique Nagasaki Bus Stops that will stop you in your tracks and make you say to yourself, "Why haven't I ever seen this before?" As you drive from one bus stop to the next, you will wonder what fruit or vegetable…
  10. Shimabara Castle · 40 minThe Shimabara Castle although not the biggest Castle in Japan has a proud history and many interesting artifacts at each of its 5 floors and an amazing 360 degree panoramic view at the top. For those who don`t want to climb, there is always the option to get dressed up as a samurai.
  11. Unzen Jigoku (Unzen Hell) · 30 minTake a stroll around the Unzen Hell Ponds and feel the power of nature and the nearby Volcano as water boils and sulfur escapes into the atmosphere. This attraction is only for Nagasaki Itineraries.
  12. Hot Foot 105 · 50 minAfter a long day touring Nagasaki we have refreshments and beverages (alcoholic and non alcoholic options) whilst soaking our feet in hot volcanic Hot Spring water which will feel like heaven. This attraction is only for Nagasaki Itineraries.
  13. Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum · 45 minYou will witness the horrors of war. This attraction isn't for the faint hearted and isn't everyones cup of tea but nevertheless an important location to learn from our mistakes. This attraction is only for Nagasaki itineraries.
  14. Nagasaki Peace Park · 45 minWe will see all the main sights to be seen including the Peace Statue, the Epicenter Memorial as well as other interesting and surreal places of interest. This attraction is only for Nagasaki Itineraries.
