This was a small group tour with only about a dozen people, and our beautiful guide, Ms. Arctic Cherry, was with us the entire time. Her dedication is truly trustworthy. She introduced all the scenic spots on the itinerary in Chinese, English, and Japanese – Lake Toya, Hoheikyo, Showa Shinzan, the Bear Park, the spring water at Meisui Park. She even recommended local specialty products unique to each place. She is truly beautiful inside and out. I hope this isn't a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I look forward to setting off again to different Hokkaido attractions next time.

Our tour guide today was Sakura, and I was so touched! She's the best tour guide I've ever had. She's not only enthusiastic but also very lively, and she's also very gentle with the travelers. I took some really great photos today, the weather was perfect, and Sakura was very attentive to everyone. I highly recommend Sakura, and I hope everyone gives her lots of positive feedback!💗💗💗💗💗💗

Guide Kim In-jae contacted me a day in advance regarding the necessary preparations and meeting location, and I was able to easily find it thanks to the location tag provided. While traveling by bus, they explained Sapporo and the Ainu people, which was refreshing and informative. Noboribetsu had a unique landscape that is hard to find in Korea, and surprisingly, Fukidashi Park was very cool, like having the air conditioning on. Out of the three days of tours to Noboribetsu, Biei, and Shakotan during my Sapporo trip, the Noboribetsu tour was the best. I am also grateful to the guide for being so kind and answering questions thoroughly 😃

Overall great transportation to Onsen. They will recommend that you go to Hoheikyo Onsen at the last stop. Kappa liner needs to be reserved through hotline that is only in Japanese, and info center says need to pay them toll fee to help call for booking. It was very confusing. Regardless I went to take the kappa liner from sapporo exit 23 without reservation and there were many seats - maybe because it is the summer.

It was a fulfilling itinerary with a kind guide. They gave us helpful tips for various travel routes, and the small group size made the overall schedule run smoothly. We were initially unsure about the Hoheikyo Onsen and Nikka Whisky Distillery, but I think they were excellent choices for a family trip. Otaru was, of course, great as well.

I thought it was a pity that I didn't book the "Kappa", but the convenience of taking the "Rapid 7" allowed us to get off and walk around wherever we wanted! The hot spring experience was to go to "Warm Inn Furukawa" to catch the noon bathing time "12:00-15:00". The whole hot spring area was very comfortable and made me very relaxed. The open-air area was very worthwhile! On the way back to Sapporo, I picked up another "Mt. Moiwa Night View" so the itinerary activity was very worthwhile!
