What to expect
While the views up Mt. Hakodate are always breathtaking in any season during the day, there’s just something about it that makes it specially beautiful during warm summer nights. It may be the gentle mountain breeze against the skin, the city lights gradually illuminating the entire town, the twinkling of the stars above Hakodate, or perhaps it’s just everything combined that makes it one of the best viewing decks in all of Japan with a 3/3 star rating at the Michelin Green Guide Japon. Whichever reason it may be, this sightseeing bus will let you experience all of it!




Reviews
In the past, when visiting Mount Hakodate with tour groups, we arranged to take a cable car to the top of the mountain. You can see other buildings along the way, such as the Kanemori Hung Hoi Warehouse. When you sign up, you have chosen to meet and disperse at Hakodate Station Bus Stop No. 12, which is very convenient. The bus arrives at Mount Hakodate to admire the vast Hakodate Bay. Visitors take the opportunity to take photos. It was a bit cold that night but not too windy. Taking a sightseeing bus this time to see Mt. Hakodate, one of Japan's three major night views, is one of the must-do activities for tourists. Unfortunately, we could only stay for about 30 minutes before we had to return.
Value for money experience. Even though tour is Japanese, the guide knowing that there are foreign tourist will add in few sentences of english for the key main points, which is sufficient to me.
Although the entire tour is explained in Japanese, you can feel the enthusiasm of the tour guide. The itinerary is very compact. The tour guide follows almost all the way and takes good care of everyone. No one will be left behind. Similarly, Mt. Hakodate will take us to a location where few people stop to take pictures and then go to a crowded place. It feels good.
Glad that I took this tour. My family enjoyed the experience eventhough we didn’t understand Japanese, the language used by the tour leader to explain the history of the place. The tour leader was very kind and experienced with the route. We noticed that she was able to get us to the priority line. At the end of the tour we were dropped by the Red Brick Warehouse area where we can explore the local delicacy. I recommend this tour for those who visit Hakodate.
Must join the tour for sure! Damn worth it!!! Love it~~|
It was a happy trip for the whole family. The 8-year-old child had a lot of fun and the whole family had a lot of memories. I highly recommend this trip.
The tour guide is a native Japanese, and the service is very good! He introduced many interesting local night scenes, which are really beautiful! The Japanese service in the whole city is great!
You can also get there by public transportation, but I recommend going by tour bus. You can travel much safer and more comfortably. The guide explains two pretty points before climbing to the top, but the explanations are only in Japanese, so you just have to pay attention. Haha, and the mountain path is very dangerous, so they ask you to turn off the flash when taking photos with your cell phone, so it's a good idea to prepare in advance. It's really pretty when the weather is nice.
exchange of Klook voucher is very easy, just show the booking email to the tour guide and will be able get the bus sticker. there isn’t any English translation throughout the whole trip, will be good if there can have some English translation so that we can understand a bit more. the trip was quite short, we reach the peak at about 830pm and have the get onto the bus at 9pm. if possible get the seat on the right hand side so that you can see part of the night view along the way.
Since I was taking my parents, I had to minimize the route and movement. In that sense, I thought it was a really good idea to do this tour. My parents, who don’t speak Japanese, were so impressed by the guide’s passionate and fun explanations that they kept telling me how much fun it was. There was no waiting, and it was the best choice to make beautiful scenery and memories by investing about an hour for pick-up and drop-off at Hakodate Station.
