Review for: Otaru Day Trip (Hoppeikyo Dam + Otaru Music Box Museum + Kitakaro) | Depart from Sapporo (Customizable Itinerary)

Lots of options to choose from the platform. Hassle free booking and payment. The company contacted me several weeks before the tour, and again about 2-3 days before the tour. We got a Japanese driver, he really tried his best to communicate with us in english, since we are not able to speak Japanese. We sent the itinerary we planned on visiting beforehand, and the company made a rough itinerary which destinations are possible to visit within 10 hours of tour. Company was really communicative and helpful. Really recommend since we can adjust the itinerary according to our needs. 👍

Review for: Customized Otaru Day Trip (Round trip from Sapporo)

The one-day charter car experience in Otaru is very worthwhile. It saves a lot of time and energy for the family to travel back and forth by JR. There are various flexible arrangements depending on the conditions of the day. The Chinese driver, Mr. Ji, is very steady and polite, punctual and professional. He shared many practical suggestions for traveling in Japan. Highly recommended👍

Review for: Otaru Day Trip (Hoppeikyo Dam + Otaru Music Box Museum + Kitakaro) | Depart from Sapporo (Customizable Itinerary)

Transportation company reached out shortly after my purchase to confirm my itinerary, our contact information and departure location for our trip for the next day. On the day of our departure, driver who speaks fluent Chinese and Japanese arrived 10mins early and we were on our way slightly ahead of schedule. About an hour into our first destination, driver kindly stopped at a convenience store for a bathroom, snacks and water break before we continue our journey to visit the far west side of the Hokkaido island (Cape Kamui), driver gave us great informations and recommendations for lunch options as well as our visit of the Cape, Otaru Canal and the Sakaimachihondori st for their desserts, glass, and Music Boxes. Driver was professional, he was very kind to stop by a convenient store before dropping us off to our onsen resort safely. I highly recommend this company and Mr Chau for their service.

The driver, Mr. Ji, was very dedicated and waited at the door of the hotel in less than 50 minutes. They also helped us buy tickets. It was very comfortable to walk around during the whole day. I give it five stars.

Review for: Customized Route: Sapporo City & Jozankei Day Trip (Round trip from Sapporo)

It was a great and memorable experience for me and my 4 year old son, the ease of travelling with a private car and our driver lily is the best in driving and helped me when my son was sleeping in the morning in his car seat. he was very much comfortable and I was thankful for Lily, being a mother too...she helped me and I appreciate it sincerely. we had to extend because the moiwa line is long and far, and I was having a hard time with my son pushing him to walk because it will be difficult due to the long transfers. it was a great service and Lily returned my phone when I forgot it during the end of the trip because my son was also asleep and I had so many things in my hand. I am thankful and I wish you all the best thank you for being kind and dedicated service🙏🤗❤️

Chartering your own car gives you the freedom. You can decide your own itinerary and how long you want to stay. You don’t have to catch a train like you would with a tour group. You just have to take a photo and get on the bus as soon as possible. If the air tickets are easy to get, the van may actually be better than the tour group in five days. Still a good deal
