Things to do in Furano ski resort

I booked a ski instructor for my two daughters. Before the lesson, they added me on WhatsApp to arrange the meeting, ask about the students' basic skiing ability, and send the ski instructor's contact information. We booked an English-speaking instructor for 6 hours, from 10 AM to 4 PM (with a 1-hour lunch break). The instructor picked them up at the ski rental shop. My two daughters loved the instructor; she was very kind and took photos and videos throughout the lesson. We got so many videos of the kids skiing. We were very impressed!

Our tour guide, Hana, was always smiling, energetic, and very patient. Even on a one-day tour, she made us feel right at home. Hana thoroughly explained the background of each attraction and recommended delicious local specialties at every stop, such as fruit corn and lavender ice cream. She was also excellent at helping travelers take photos! Hana introduced us to Hokkaido's unique characteristics, local products, and even taught us little tidbits like how to distinguish different grades of cantaloupe. She also shared her personal recommendations for must-try foods in Sapporo, helping visitors to Japan understand Hokkaido better. Even though it rained that day, we still had a wonderful experience.

The best part of this trip was having a very thoughtful and responsible tour guide, Xiao Hong. Her explanations were incredibly detailed and engaging, and she even provided them in Chinese, English, and Japanese. Before arriving at each attraction, she would send messages in advance with information like meeting points, meeting times, and zoo maps. She's a truly dedicated guide!

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.

Since I was traveling alone, I thought joining a tour would be the best way to visit the Asahiyama Zoo, so I booked one. It turned out to be a very wise decision. I also got to visit a few other attractions I'd always been interested in, which made me extremely happy.

小刘先生 is an excellent driver! Adhere to safe driving from point to point, and very patient. Ample time given for each scenery. Sceneries are pretty! Only minus point is the erratic weather... Totally love the small group and late departure arrangement!!

Tour guide was very kind. There were only 2 of us during the trip but he was still eager and happy to show us around. On the way back he even asked us if we wanted to be dropped off at a specific location, he helped us find an open shopping centre. The places we visited were very beautiful as well. For reference we went during the last week of September. There were very few lavenders but the rest of the flowers were in bloom. We highly recommend this trip.
