Reviews
This one is really a value for money, you will be able to tour a lot of gems in Biei/Furano area in a day. The tour guide is very accommodating, even though she is not that fluent in English she is trying her very best to translate it.
The tour guide was Japanese, and the entire tour was conducted in Japanese. I felt the itinerary was perfectly paced. I think the time allocated for Farm Tomita and Shikisai no Oka could be swapped. Shikisai no Oka is large and beautiful, and there are more shopping opportunities there. They allocated more time than expected for the flower viewing spots, which I recommend! Although it was a bit pricey, haha.
This tour was conducted entirely in Japanese, so those who don't understand Japanese could only stare out the window at the scenery. The internet signal in the mountainous area was very poor, making Google Translate unreliable. I couldn't fully understand what the tour guide was saying, but from the parts I did manage to translate, he shared a lot about local customs and traditions. If I had understood Japanese, the experience would have been much better. The itinerary was very packed, so I wouldn't recommend it for those who prefer to take their time. However, it's perfect for people who just want to quickly visit many spots. The guide was very punctual with time management, but it always felt like we were rushing in and rushing out.
vey nice experience. i thought theres no tour guide but it came out to have one. even she spoke in nihonggo just google translate and u will understand some. very punctual the time of arrival & departure just make sure after exploring the area be on board before the designated time.
Good experience, no tour guide but there's narrator in bus when going to each destination. Suggestion for multi language because I have no idea what's she talking about at all. Very punctual anyways
We booked Englisch Tour. As we arrived the lady told us "sorry no English" so we did not understand anything during the tour and she did not care if we understood her instructions to follow, to pick up tickets etc. Very disappointing. We could have rented a car instead. Would have been better. The tour was expensive so it was basically for us only a bus transfer.....
