Coses a fer a Tree of Ken and Mary

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!

La guia Lucy va explicar detalladament l'itinerari, la cultura i la història de Hokkaido en xinès, anglès i japonès. El contingut era ric i viu, i es podia sentir la seva dedicació, fent que tot el viatge fos molt agradable. El conductor tenia una excel·lent habilitat al volant, combinant velocitat i seguretat, cosa que ens va fer sentir segurs. El que va ser una mica decebedor va ser que alguns membres del grup van arribar tard, cosa que va endarrerir l'itinerari i va fer que al final no poguéssim comprar el gelat blau. El trajecte d'anada i tornada en minibús, d'unes 4 hores, va ser una mica llarg, i estar asseguts durant tant de temps va fer que la zona lumbar i els glutis se'ns entumissin i resultés una mica incòmode. En general, si voleu experimentar ràpidament les atraccions de Furano i Biei en un temps limitat, aquest itinerari segueix sent una bona opció. El recomano especialment a aquells que visiten Hokkaido per primera vegada i volen veure diverses atraccions en un sol viatge.

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.

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.

We had a great trip and it was a special day in March since it was snowing, we just wanted to have viewed each location more as 20minutes allocation per area is a bit tight, considering the snowy and slippery roads that we have to walk to and we have a senior family member. Dara was very understanding of the passengers even though we’re late to return. And I hope that there is a charging port at the bus since almost all our tours has an outlet in the bus except for this one.

It was a very relaxed trip, especially since we visited many places with shorter停留 times. I'm very grateful to our Taiwanese tour guide, Xiao Hong, for his enthusiastic help. Afterward, he even shared beautiful scenic photos and discount coupons with everyone!

The tour guide and driver were both excellent. However, the quality of fellow travelers can be a hit or miss. Two Thai women kept talking loudly while the guide was explaining the day's itinerary, making it impossible to hear what the guide was saying. It really detracted from the experience. If you can't be considerate, you shouldn't travel! Unfortunately, there were no other seats available to move to. Sigh.

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!
