Reviews
the driver also the guide speaks very little. it is more to a self guided tour. time given to each place is sufficient. lunch provided is a littlr disappointed as other tour are having grilled seafood. we only had a pot of salmon with cabbage for lunch. we were given refund for not able to visit Mt Hakodate to see night view as the ropeway is under maintenance. overall, it is still a self fun trip.
Although the cost of participating in the two-day trip is slightly higher at $10,323/single room, it is still worth it to save a lot of trouble. The driver and tour guide for this service, Mr. Fan, is very professional and considerate. The drive is very smooth and disciplined, and he also introduces the scenic spots in detail , the hotel is clean and tidy, and the breakfast dishes are rich. Overall, it is a perfect little trip.
no pre-alert message or whatsapp to us. We even call to the Operator phone but no pick up and no response. this making us panic and worry....funally the van camd to us a few minutes before 9.20am. Whereas our trip to Furano is much different services. We received email and whatsapp with the pre-plert message from JRT tour leader Ms Rita..
Our driver, Mr. Chen, took us to all the designated places according to the tour's itinerary and was always standby on time. He was very reliable and responsible throughout the 2 days tour, we had a good time overall.
It was a very disappointing trip. What I was most looking forward to this time was the night view of Mt. Hakodate. I had seen the cable car maintenance time mentioned in the introduction before, but there was no adjustment to the itinerary that day. I thought there would be an alternative to take the bus up the mountain, but the driver didn’t care at all. Knowing the situation, he drove to the cable car, took pictures, and then told us that it was not open today and would refund the money to you. Later, I asked him if there were other ways to go up the mountain, and he actually replied that I didn’t live there, so I didn’t know. The answer was really It was extremely surprising. Although we asked the front desk staff when we arrived at the hotel later, the bus from Hakodate Mountain only arrived at 19:00 (it was already 18:50 when we arrived at the hotel). It was too late. It was really a very unpleasant trip. journey!
Historical Village, Mount Hakodate and Onuma Park were interesting, the others were not for me. Tropical Garden - plants were poorly maintained, Goryokaku Park ,if you don’t purchase additional tix for Tower or museum ( total ¥1500) - park grounds uninteresting. Guide was helpful and pleasant . Due to English proficiency, commentary was limited. Hotel was dated.
Very attentive, interesting, and very considerate in introducing the origins of many regional place names, life experiences, etc.!
Because of the rain, we were unable to climb the mountain to see the night view, which was a huge disappointment. The tour guide had to concentrate on driving and did not introduce much about each attraction. But thanks to the tour guide for delivering us safely to the hotel.
We set out to see the night view of Hakodate, but unfortunately it was raining and we were unable to climb Mount Hakodate to see the night view. This was mainly because we were not able to see the night view, which was disappointing. The tour guide and driver, because he had to concentrate on driving, did not introduce much information about Hokkaido. Although he said that he could ask questions, he did not want to disturb him, so the 2 days and 1 night trip was mainly spent in a quiet car, but thank you for everything Safe transfer by tour guide.
The night view of Hakodate is the selling point and the main reason for attracting various group members to participate. The tour guide arranged to go to the observation deck around 6 o'clock in the evening and leave at 6:45. The sunset was at 7:10 that day, so I was very disappointed. I didn't know Why does Klook have such arrangement? In addition, the tour guide and the driver talked during the entire trip, which was a safety hazard and very dangerous. It also affected the rest of the group members.
