Welcome to Fukuoka, on the northern tip of Kyushu Island, it is western Japan’s most happening city and gateway to the country. Set amid splendid natural diversity – bordered by mountains, flanked by sea, and dotted with hot springs – the metropolis is an exciting hub of modern city life. Rich with tradition and modern cultural attraction, contemporary art, architecture, shopping, and cuisine complement centuries’-old temples and shrines.


For dining, Fukuoka is renowned throughout Japan for its ramen, and no trip to the city is complete without tasting the distinctive noodles and broth dish.


For shopping, just steps from our hotel, Hakata Station, often referred to as the “front gate of Kyushu”, offering a wide variety of omiyage as well as the ever-popular Daiso and Tokyu Hands, to mention a few. And yet, there is more, the shops at Fukuoka Tower, a visit to Gintengai “silver roof” shopping arcade in Kokura, sake brewery, and the legendary pottery center of Okawauchiyama Village. 


On this Omiyage Weekender, our touring includes sunset from the observatory at Fukuoka Tower, Kokura Castle, an opportunity to get up and close with kangaroos and wallabies at Green Park, cable car ride, Yanagawa river cruise, Nagasaki’s Glover Garden, and the Edo Period garden, Mifuneyama Rakuen.
