What To Expect
Shiraito Falls
Begin your journey at 9:00 AM from the Lawson at Oriental Hotel Fukuoka Hakata Station. 10:00 Discover the Beauty of Shiraito Falls in Itoshima Escape the city and immerse yourself in the refreshing nature of Itoshima’s hidden gem—Shiraito Falls, located halfway up Mt. Hagane at 900 meters above sea level. Recognized as a scenic spot by Fukuoka Prefecture, this beautiful 24-meter waterfall lives up to its name, as the water flows down like fine white silk threads. In the summer, the cool mist and powerful spray offer a refreshing break from the heat, filling the air with negative ions and the soothing sounds of nature. It's the perfect spot to relax, recharge, and connect with the outdoors. Just steps from the parking area, you’ll find a peaceful walking trail where you can enjoy the gentle murmur of streams and the melodies of birds in the forest. Don’t forget your camera—every turn offers a picture-perfect view worth capturing.
11:00 Next, explore Raizan Sennyoji Daihiōin, one of the region’s top fall foliage spots. Admire the grand 4-meter tall wooden statue of the Thousand-Armed Kannon and the 500 Rakan statues along the mountain slope. This temple dates back to 742 AD, with many cultural treasures including nationally designated Important Cultural Properties. Don’t miss the 400-year-old maple tree—especially breathtaking during November’s peak foliage—and the sacred 900-year-old ginkgo tree further up the hill.（Ticket is excluded)

5.00The tour is an excellent way to spend a day immersed in nature, religion, and cultural cuisine. Our guide, Xo, was simply amazing — incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and especially attentive to my two daughters, who absolutely loved her by the end of the tour thanks to her warmth and kindness. I totally recommend it! It’s very kid-friendly and a truly educational experience for visitors from the West. This is a hidden gem not to be missed.
Great trip, bad lunch choice

3.00The daytrip per se is great. Sun was very informative and helpful and did a wonderful job guiding us. There is no long driving involved and lots of time for activities. However, the lunch place where we were brought to had no vegetarian or vegan options. I think that is a shame in this day and age as so many people dont want to or cant eat pork broth so this lunch choice is not very inclusive. Do better, gogodaytours and viator!
