Things to do in Hokkaido

i had a great time with Mr Li/ Lee idk. I swear he didn’t ask me to write this review like how other tour guide would. I was just very pleased with the quality of the tour overall and because the terrace was closed due to the bad weather. I think it’s a very legit reason so I wasn’t very sad with that. It was a pity, but no one could’ve predicted it and it was already a very, very long tour we had to spend nearly 9 hours on the bus alone, so make sure you make it comfortable to sleep on the bus. the tour guide himself was very friendly and funny unintentionally he was a bit clumsy, but I can sense the genuine energy of him just happy to be around. regarding the meeting place. I have read some reviews about missing the meeting place even though they came early. I think that is very unreasonable because the meeting place is very very easy to find. just meet at the first floor ground floor of the separate TV station that will be posters, and like that would be many many people being there

My wife and I joined a day trip to Noboribetsu Hell Valley, Lake Toya, the Bear Park, and Mount Showa-Shinzan, and the overall experience was fantastic. We had a particularly great time. The natural scenery of Noboribetsu Hell Valley was stunning, with swirling steam, very characteristic of Hokkaido; the scenery of Lake Toya was beautiful, with clear lake water, making people feel very relaxed; the Bear Park was both interesting and a little exciting, allowing us to observe bears up close, which was very memorable; Mount Showa-Shinzan also made us feel the power of nature. Special praise goes to our guide Kevin, who was very dedicated, patient, and professional, providing clear explanations and reasonable time arrangements. The pace of the entire trip was just right, not too rushed, and not wasting time. Overall, it was a relaxing, fulfilling, and unforgettable trip, highly recommended for couples and families with children. I would particularly like to mention that the snowmobile ride is still very worthwhile.

Our guide Lily is nice & friendly. In overall the trip is good, just for Asahiyama Zoo was a bit rushed we do not have much time to spend to see the animals as we need to take lunch at the same time. The Snow mobile experience was great, just a bit pricey but worth to try once. Ningle Terrace is very cold as we arrive it’s already dark. We missed 1 itinerary which is the Ken & Mary tree, due to the snow weather.

Our guide Oliver from PST had been helpful and friendly, as usual day tour is very rush as it cover few places, Asahiyama Zoo and Shikisa no Oka were both fun, it will be good to brought own food, as Asahiyama zoo food court are always crowded. Ningle Terrance, we were given 40 minutes, walk from and to car park for bus already took 20 minutes as the ground was slippery, suuper long queue toilet 15 minutes, there was no time to go inside the jungle for the wooden cottages. Our guide was very understanding and willing to wait for those came back late. Christmas Tree was nothing much, stand in the freezing cold wind to see a tree, bus couldn’t park, we got to wait in the freezing wind for our bus to come back 🥶

The guide was very helpful and considerate. She's realistic about the timeframe and even suggested we buy our lunch at 7/11 since we will not have enough time to eat at the zoo. We have 3 kids with us and she always checks if we are ok. The trip was nice and organized but if you have kids, best to stay at asahimaya zoo the wholeday. The highlight of our tour was the snowmobile experience. Its highly recommended.

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 🤣

Amenities: Provides telescopes, life jackets, and English guidance for international visitors. During the tour, you'll see the unique landscapes of Shiretoko created by volcanoes, marine erosion, and glacial erosion. You can also see the Shiretoko Mountain Range from different angles. The boat will stop at locations where brown bears frequently appear, allowing everyone to use binoculars to spot them. In addition, you'll also have the opportunity to see whales and dolphins.

always best to get your tickets in advance...you'll be surprised the long Q to purchase at the counter..with klook just show your QR code n you good to go... best time to be there 3pm...by 4pm its dark n crowded.. book uber it will directly stops at the main tickets counter... save your energy from walking up the long slopes

Since it was a weekday, the waiting time was short. At first, there was fog, so I was worried I wouldn't see one of Hokkaido's three major night views, but the weather cleared up later, so I enjoyed it.
