Tours de Shirogane Blue Pond

On August 25, 2026, we met at Exit 31 of Datong Station to join the 11:10 AM tour. We had the pleasure of having Hanna, a very elegant and knowledgeable tour guide, and Mr. Kasai, our driver. Hanna professionally explained the itinerary and provided excellent service throughout the trip. The advantage of departing a bit later was truly great, as we avoided large crowds and rush hour traffic on the way back. We didn't even have to wait in line for dinner. Although the journey was a bit long, it was well worth it for the beautiful scenery. We visited the Blue Pond, the Herb Garden (shopping for lavender products), Shikisai-no-Oka, Farm Tomita, a melon farm, and enjoyed the illuminated Ningle Terrace at Furano Prince Hotel (a nighttime activity). We returned at 9 PM.

We joined a one-day tour in Furano, and the itinerary was incredibly smooth throughout the day. Although there were many attractions and the pace was a bit fast, we had enough time at each location for photos and food, so the scheduling was perfectly fine. Before the trip, I saw some reviews mentioning that people might get hungry, but actually, there was food available for purchase at every stop along the way. Hokkaido's white corn was super sweet, the melon bread was fragrant and soft, and the croquettes were also delicious, so there was absolutely no need to worry about going hungry. Special praise goes to our tour guide, Chillin! The group included foreigners, Japanese, Chinese, and Hong Kongers, and she was able to communicate with everyone in their respective languages. Her explanations were clear and friendly, which created a wonderful atmosphere for the entire group. The luckiest part was that everyone in the group was incredibly punctual, so the timing at each stop was perfectly managed, with no delays at all. Our guide also gave us tips at each attraction on which souvenirs were worth buying, which were inexpensive, and which offered good value for money, which was very practical for those who struggle with shopping! Overall, this tour offered great value for money and is highly recommended for anyone who wants to visit multiple classic attractions in one day.

Una experiència meravellosa amb la nostra guia Lucy, que és pacient, càlida i hospitalària. Va compartir molts fets interessants sobre els diversos llocs i Hokkaido en general. Vam gaudir més del viatge amb ella com a guia. L'itinerari és bo i força atapeït, però està bé, ja que vam poder veure més llocs.

This was my first time in Hokkaido, and I was traveling alone with limited mobility, so I was a bit anxious. However, I found a tour that met all my expectations and decided to join for the first time! I was initially worried because the guide and driver were foreigners, but they provided explanations and guidance meticulously in both Japanese and their native language, and they were very pleasant! At the zoo, we barely had enough time to look around and didn't have a chance to eat lunch. I thought an extra 30 minutes would have been nice. Also, I wondered if we would have seen the main animals better if we had entered through the main gate. Overall, though, it was enjoyable to see many animals unique to Hokkaido! The Seven Star Tree and the Patchwork Road were also very beautiful! Farm Tomita was crowded with tourists, and I couldn't try the melon souvenirs, so I wished I had more time there. Nevertheless, I'm grateful and had a great time visiting many places I wouldn't have been able to see on my own. Thank you very much!

El dia de la visita el temps era molt bo i, a més, no hi havia gaires turistes, així que vam poder passejar i fer fotos amb tranquil·litat, i el paisatge era realment bonic. El guia, el senyor Dong, ens va recomanar el blat de moro local, que era molt dolç. No vaig triar l'opció de menjar meló cantalup fins a atipar-me, però allà també en venien a trossos, així que vaig pensar que amb una o dues rodanxes ja n'hi havia prou per tastar-lo. Si voleu tastar gelats de lavanda i meló cantalup, no cal que us compliqueu, a la granja Tomita hi ha sabors combinats, així que podeu tastar els dos alhora. L'horari de tot el recorregut estava perfectament organitzat, amb prou temps per passejar i fer fotos amb calma, sense que fos massa atapeït. Les pauses eren suficients, l'autobús i els voltants dels llocs turístics estaven molt nets, i el guia, el senyor Dong, va ser molt entusiasta, ens va informar sobre alguns aperitius i productes locals, i on comprar-los amb una bona relació qualitat-preu.

The tour was excellent! We visited many places. Even though there were only 4 of us, we had a small car, like an Alphard, which felt like a private tour. The driver was very helpful, communicated well, was polite, and always smiling. We got to see everything on the itinerary, plus they added Tomita Farm and a herb garden for us. The time spent at each stop was just right, and the weather was great. Everything went smoothly and comfortably. I highly recommend it!

small tour group with mini-bus. the ride was smooth, syllabus was great and Baku the tour guide was awesome. Baku gave us great tips during the trip (i.e. what to buy at service centre, where to grab lunch at Biei station…). we enjoyed it very much! thx the team for their effort!!!

En Leo és increïble! Té molts coneixements i va directe al gra. Parla amb fluïdesa 3 idiomes i dóna indicacions en tots tres perquè ningú es quedi enrere. Us podeu creure que vam sortir a temps a totes les parades? Cada vegada que passàvem per davant seu després de baixar de l'autobús, canviava a l'anglès i ens recordava les instruccions, i canviava a un altre idioma quan passava un altre turista. És excel·lent! També vam arribar a les nostres destinacions abans que els altres. També va oferir assistència i explicacions quan va ser necessari. Molt contents amb aquest tour! Recomanem moltíssim en Leo!

Everything was well-organized, and we truly enjoyed every moment. A big thank you to Lucy and our driver for making this day so memorable! Highly recommended!
