Our tour guide for this day trip was Arafat. He is really knowledgeable about the areas that we are visiting and could offer interesting insights about these places and Hokkaido as a whole. The places we went were breathtaking, absolutely no regrets going there to see the wonderful autumn views. He is also really good at time management for the group, which resulted in a smooth, hassle and delay free experience for everyone :)

I availed this on our HOKKAIDO TRIP. For you to go to Asayimana Zoo this is a good deal because the travel going to the Zoo will take 2-3hours by Bus so imagine doing it DIY. Asayimana Zoo is a must visit Zoo for me in Hokkaido Trip. The other its just a so so sightseeing. We avail the Buffet offer the food is good specially the Salad offers its fresh and the UNLIMITED MELON! There is a food upstair we spent 1200php per ordee plus 250php 1 slice of Melon. The Unlimited Food price ranges 1500-1800php with UNLIMITED MELON. So its a good deal for us. The guide also is nice person speaking in English,Japanese and Chinese and he is understanding.

Our guide, Xiao Yan, provided concise and detailed explanations, and her introductions to the ecology of Hokkaido and the surrounding areas of Asahikawa were clear and vivid, with a gentle and pleasant voice. She was also very responsible, thoughtfully reminding us of the specialty foods and key photo spots at each attraction, making the entire trip smoother and more fulfilling.

This tour is recommended by klook. The itinerary is reasonable. Except for not going to Asahikawa Zoo, it mainly focuses on Biei (Seven Star Trees, Blue Pond) and Furano (Four Seasons Color Hill, Elf Terrace, etc.). The tour guide Xiao Zhou informed the boarding area on WeChat one day in advance. It was really kind and warm to hear the local accent in a foreign land. The children also had a lot of fun. Accompanying the whole journey and enthusiastically assisting in taking photos. The suggestions during the trip are also quite pertinent, just listen to her. The pink bus is easy to recognize. The driver is also experienced and stable. If I come to Hokkaido next time, I will choose your tour again.

Assistance was always readily available when needed, and the schedule was followed punctually from start to finish. Highly recommended for a smooth and enjoyable travel experience.

There is a parking lot a little up behind the hot spring, can be reached by car, the old building with more wood, very warm feeling, the facilities are clean and perfect, the staff after tearing off your admission ticket, will explain how to get to the men's / women's soup, the soup has a Locker cabinet, a dressing area (free fee massage chair), changing area, bathing area, hot spring area, facilities are perfect clean and comfortable, bubble can go to the 3rd floor lounge and other family, I went to the day lounge before 1:30 was booked can not be used, but I bubble to 3 so no problem. Finally I selected the event "Porocle Electric Bicycle 1 Day Ticket" (IC card) can be set up in Sapporo city center area of more than 40 stations (unmanned bicycle dedicated roadside parking area), can go to the TV tower in advance to pick up the card A more battery, after selection can not change the car, starting method and instructions can be, old car before driving need to see whether the electric function is turned on, the battery display below there are 3 light dots, representing the strength of the electric thrust function Difficult to ride, remember to turn on, to the destination / convenience store when parking the car remember to lock the car, to the evening find any 1 designated station in the city to return the car, there is a map, can not be placed casually, the designated station is numbered, parking followed by instructions to lock the car tap the card to return the car. Incidentally, I did not read the terms of the pass, but also went to the attraction "Mount Algae (Night View Lookout) Cable Car Round Trip", because it has exhausted 3 attractions / activities, so this to pay ¥ 2,100 / person, you can take the cable car to see the night view of Sapporo Also the pass has a restaurant coupon, forget to try.
