  • Playing in Asahikawa Zoo can satisfy all your imaginations about the zoo. You can see penguins walking in line and cute little pandas.
  • Ken&Marry Internet celebrity tree is a must-see check-in place.
  • Admire the Shirahige Falls, where the water flows down like white beards from the crevices of the rocks, and merges with the white snow in winter, which is very spectacular.
  • The scenery of Blue Pond intertwined with the forest, and its mysterious color makes it a super popular energy spot.

Asahiyama Zoo - Red Panda
In winter, Asahiyama Zoo also has a limited penguin walk, with their round bodies and curious eyes, they are cute, fun, and healing!

It's not a stream of water, but countless fine threads of water, hanging like white whiskers—this is probably how it got its name.

The tourguide is very easy to speak with and has patience even though other people are not going back to the bus on time. I had a great tour. I would recommend this tour to explore the famous spots in Hokkaido.

We had Mr Hong as our guide and he was really informative! He introduced each places that we visited and gave us fun facts and tips as well. Although the itinerary felt quite rushed with not enough time in each location, we still enjoyed the tour.

It was a very good and fun trip! Our guide name is Tenzo and he is very helpful, knows a lot and competent. We got plenty of time during the trip because of his tips and trick and we managed to get to all the places without rushing, even got an additional time during every places. Overall it was an enjoyable trip! very recommend this tour. You don’t have to be worry for not being contacted after you book this tour, because they’ll contact you D-1 the tour date for your meeting time and else. I recommend to come early on the day so you can get the front seat and it really helps your mobility and time during the whole trip.

the trip was real fun and wonderful. our guide was very nice and helpful. He gave very clear instructions and enough information about where we were going and what we were going to do next. I really enjoyed it and recommend this trip to everyone who has a short trip to Hokkaido but wanted to explore the big island. You can visit almost everywhere in a far side of Hokkaido in one day without renting a car.

Review for: 超chill北海道打卡路线

Our Arafat guide was extremely diligent and responsible, very humorous and talkative, making the whole day trip very enjoyable. On the way, the guide carefully explained all the points to note and the itinerary of the day trip, leading us to start our long-awaited day trip. The first stop was Asahiyama Zoo. Before arriving at the destination, the guide explained some details about Asahiyama, and we learned a lot. Due to the recent heavy snow in Hokkaido, the driver needed to drive slowly, so we were very worried about not being able to see the penguin parade. We were looking forward to it and nervous the whole way. Fortunately, the guide sprinted us in the last few minutes to see the morning penguin parade. We were very happy, thumbs up! 👍 The second stop was the Instagram-famous tree. Obviously, it was just a tree. We took some photos in the car and then came to the third stop. The third stop was Shirahige Falls. The waterfall was submerged in snow, but the guide kept providing emotional value, so it could be regarded as seeing a characteristic scene submerged in snow. The fourth stop was very close to the third stop, which is Shirogane Blue Pond. Before getting off the bus, the guide shared a lot of experience about taking pictures of the Blue Pond. Seeing the Blue Pond was indeed very shocking and beautiful. It is a must-see. The fifth stop was the Ningle Terrace. The wooden houses after the lights were turned on were indeed very beautiful, and you would feel a sense of romance when you saw them, which was very happy. Today's day trip ended happily like this. The whole day was very relaxing and enjoyable. The guide gets a perfect score 💯💯💯 Highly recommended!

Andy was our tour guide and he was very helpful by giving tips on how we can enjoy the places better. He also recommends what to eat, what to do first so that we won’t be late to the next destintion.

The experience was fantastic! The tour guide was always on time, which made everything run smoothly. Since it was an full-day tour with no break for lunch, I recommend packing plenty of snacks to stay energised. We all wished we had more time to explore each spot more leisurely. When we missed our tour on the first day, they immediately booked us for the next day without any hesitation, which we really appreciated.

Mila was our guide for the day. she gave ample time for each location that we visited. And she also explain about the location details etc to us and also gave us some food recommendations in Sapporo. Very good service guide. Only downside is that each location there are so so so many people visiting and taking photos etc it is very hard to get a good shot of yourself in the photo 🤣

Review for: 集合點集合

I booked a day trip on Klook this time, and I'm really glad I chose this group. Our tour guide, Xiaoyu, was very professional and a great storyteller. She didn't just take us to the attractions, but also shared Hokkaido's history, local culture, and all sorts of interesting little facts along the way, making the whole trip far from boring. The itinerary was arranged smoothly, and the timing was just right. It didn't feel rushed, and there was no wasted time. We went to Asahikawa Zoo, where we saw many cute animals; then we headed to the internet-famous tree where many people take pictures. It was even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The colors of Shirahige Falls and Blue Pond were very dreamy, and you can't help but keep taking pictures when you see them with your own eyes. Finally, we went to Ningle Terrace, and the whole atmosphere was like a fairy tale world. It's perfect for strolling around slowly, taking pictures, and feeling the romance of Hokkaido. Overall, this was a relaxing and fulfilling day trip, and even if it's your first time in Hokkaido, you don't have to worry at all. I highly recommend this itinerary, and I also highly recommend our tour guide, Xiaoyu. I will definitely join another tour next time I come to Hokkaido.

Review for: Meeting Point

We had an excellent day tour thanks to our wonderful guide, Sunny. His service was truly outstanding. He explained where we were going, the history and gave clear instructions which made the tour very easy and enjoyable for our family. He knew the good spots for photos taking and took many beautiful photos for us, capturing great moments that we will cherish. On top of that, he bought famous snacks for us all to try and shared his personal favourite food spots and souvenir, which were very helpful and thoughtful. What impressed us the most was his kindness and responsibility — our child accidentally left a toy on the bus, and he went the extra mile to send it back to our hotel. We really appreciated this gesture. Highly recommended tour guide Sunny. Thank you for making our trip so memorable!
