It was a trip where I truly experienced the magnificent nature of Hokkaido! Our guide, Hikaru, provided detailed explanations and even shared some funny jokes, making sure there was never a dull moment. Thank you for making this such an enjoyable trip!

it’s a beautiful tour, don’t get me wrong. but have clear expectations to what you’re going to see, if you have travelled Japan, there will be nothing new for you to see. I wouldn’t put this as top of my list for visiting Sapporo. Tour guide was great and I have no complaints about organization or tour company.

I took the trip with hide cai. I liked the pace and the sites were what I wanted to see. The tour guide spoke English well and was able to provide valuable information about the sites that we visited. The weather also cooperated today and we did not encounter any rain.

We had a wonderful day trip exploring Noboribetsu Hell Valley, Lake Toya, Mount Usu, and the Bear Ranch. A huge shoutout to our guide, Lucy, who was so informative and went out of her way to help us get some wonderful photos. The sights were a real highlight and made for a fantastic day out. The only minor drawback was the transport, as the bus felt a bit cramped for a long-distance journey. Making the seating a bit more spacious would make the ride much more comfortable, but overall it was a really memorable experience thanks to Lucy and the amazing itinerary!

Our tour guide, Ella, was very professional in her explanations and helped us purchase tickets. Her time management was excellent, allowing us to visit sites efficiently. I give her five stars. My main concern was that the mini-bus drove extremely fast. It was the fastest I've experienced in Japan (we didn't even take the highway on this trip). Combined with numerous potholes and hairpin turns, the vehicle often vibrated. On the return night drive, I was frequently worried about the speed affecting our safety. Perhaps the packed itinerary meant the driver had to rush. As other reviews have mentioned, the bear farm isn't a necessary stop. Also, the Lake Toya fireworks were very small and lacked music. If you've seen other artistic fireworks displays in Japan, you might not need to include the Lake Toya fireworks on your viewing list.

Our guide, Alex, was great and helped to take photos of many of us. He also shared bits and pieces of information about the attractions we went to in English and Chinese. The timings allocated for each attraction was also just nice. For those without transport, this was worth the money.

If you are someone who wants to take their time in one place, this tour isn’t for you. it’s fast-paced and you can visit a lot of places in one day. I especially appreciate the discount tickets that shops hand you when you get off the bus. (I think it was a special discount ticket for those on tour buses). Mila explained the background of the places we went to and recommended go-to-places around Hokkaido.

We loved our Hokkaido Mount Yotei tour! The hotel pick-up and drop-off made everything so easy, and the small group size kept it relaxing. Our guide, Wei, was right on time and a very safe driver, so we felt totally comfortable the whole day. The schedule wasn't rushed at all, giving us plenty of time to sit back and enjoy each stop. Highly recommend Wei and this tour!

What to know before visiting Usu

Overview of Usu and what draws visitors

Usu is a compact destination whose top bookings are tours and cable car experiences, and demand on Klook shows clear highs and lows through the year. Activity bookings cluster around winter months, while quieter stretches appear in autumn, giving the city a rhythm that suits both scenic sightseeing and short guided trips.

Best months to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data shows demand peaks in January and falls to its lowest point in October, with other busy months late in the year. Prices on Klook are not always aligned with demand here: the priciest month by Klook data is typically October, while the cheapest month is typically July — roughly a third cheaper than the priciest month in past bookings. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in July when Klook prices tend to be lowest; if you want the peak-season atmosphere, aim for January when demand is highest. Note that late-year months see high demand but also higher prices, so price and demand move together then.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers from Singapore tend to finalize bookings about two to three weeks ahead, so planning a bit in advance helps secure preferred tours and cable car slots. If you’re flexible, many experiences can still be booked close to travel — Klook shows last-minute availability within a few days — but for peak months like January it’s wise to book earlier. Use Klook to compare tour times and cable car options and lock in the ones that match your itinerary.
