• Do you love Ceramics and Green Tea and want to learn more about both these visual and cultural arts whilst in Japan? If your answer is yes, then this is the tour for you!
• Departures from Fukuoka are possible to explore and discover more about these two intriguing subjects.
• You will learn about the different types of pottery from this region of Japan as well as how and why Green Tea has become one of the most sort after health drinks in the world.
• There will be amazing countryside to see as we travel to each location. This is the real Japan that you will never be able to experience from urban locations. Out of the 8 to 10 hours together, at least 2 to 3 hours will be spent in the vehicle as traveling time. However my on-board commentary or the use of free wifi, will make it feel as though time as flown by.
• Look forward to showing you the best of Nagasaki and Saga Prefectures as we explore this unique region of Kyushu.

There is a hidden pottery village located in the mountainous area of Imari Town in Saga Prefecture. It is such a gem of a location that not many people know about it, except of course those who are ceramic lovers. For these people the location is 7th heaven as it is so peaceful and tranquil, at times it feels as though one has stepped back in time. Okawachiyama which translates as "Big River in the Mountains" doesn't feel like a place designed for the 21st Century. Time runs a lot slower in these parts of the countryside and its a place where you can forget about life for a half a day and feel the time slip of the region.
