Kitakyushu Mojiko Private Shore Excursion Hiraodai 7H

──────────────────

Overview

Begin your private shore excursion from Mojiko Port and travel comfortably in your own private vehicle without having to follow the pace of a large group.

Travel to Hiraodai, one of Japan’s most remarkable karst plateaus. Stop at a scenic viewpoint to admire the vast grasslands dotted with white limestone formations, creating a distinctive landscape often compared to flocks of sheep scattered across the hills.

Continue to Senbutsu Limestone Cave, a National Natural Monument located beneath Hiraodai. Explore the fascinating underground passage filled with natural limestone formations. Deeper inside the cave, the experience becomes more adventurous as you can walk through a shallow underground stream.

After returning to central Kitakyushu, visit Tanga Market, a traditional local market long known as the “Kitchen of Kitakyushu.” Browse the market and discover fresh seafood, local produce, prepared foods, and other regional specialties.

Continue to Kokura Castle, one of the city’s most recognizable historic landmarks. Explore the reconstructed castle tower and learn about the history of Kokura and its former feudal lords. If time permits, you can also visit the neighboring Kokura Castle Garden and enjoy its traditional Japanese architecture and peaceful scenery.

After experiencing the natural landscapes, local food culture, and history of Kitakyushu, return comfortably to Mojiko Port in time for your ship’s departure.
