Overview

This tour has a combination of walking and the use of a very convenient public transport system. Even though Fukuoka is a large Metropolitan City of nearly 2 million people it is rather compact within the city center and an easy place to transverse either by walking or using the subway or both. This walking tour of Fukuoka City can accommodate up to 14 members. Pick ups and drop offs at a local hotel are all part of the service.

What's included

  • Gratuities
  • Meals and beverages will be paid by the client.
  • There will be 2 or 3 attractions that require an entrance fee to be paid.
  • Will use the Fukuoka subway at certain times of the day.

    Nishijingen Genkoborui Bulwark

    10 min

    The Mongolian wall remnants in Central Fukuoka are a real find indeed! You wouldn't expect to be able to find this incredible site and a window to the long and dynamic historical past. Obviously, the wall is only a fraction of what it was at its peak in the 13th Century but never the less, such a strong impression can be obtained of what the exact situation was with the combative Mongolians and their quest to invade Japan. The remains are central located near Seinan University and only a 10 minute walk from the nearest subway station, so its a location that isn't too difficult to find let alone enjoy a stroll and feel the historical significance of the area.
