We first visited Hokkaido in 2005, and this time we joined a 1-day local tour through Klook. We are grateful for the great weather today, the well-planned itinerary highlights, and the relaxing pace. We plan to continue using Klook when we go to Okinawa next year. Also, our tour guide today, Jenny, was very attentive and a great communicator. Managing a group of 40 people today is no easy task, yet she handled it with grace and ease. Furthermore, Jenny has excellent language skills, being able to explain things clearly in both English and Mandarin (her native language) with a well-organized delivery that made it easy for us to understand. My wife and I give both the itinerary and Jenny a 5-star rating. Finally, thank you, Jenny, for leading today's trip. 🤝

Our tour guide Oscar was very informative and spoke to all attendees in Mandarin, Japanese and English very well. I can't recommend this excursion enough and highly recommend booking for middle of October to see the beautiful fall colours while the weather remains clear and mild. Lots of great photos opportunities throughout the day as well!

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 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.

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 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!

We had a great time in our private tour with our driver 维钢. His van was comfy and clean. The rate we paid was higher compared to other operators but it was a last minute booking and glad there was still available van and driver to cater us. Thank you. Keep up the great service.

Quick facts about Noboribetsu
General info
What to know before visiting Noboribetsu
What to do in Noboribetsu
Noboribetsu is best known for guided Tours, Zoos & aquariums and Historical sites, with Outdoor & sports activities also popular among visitors. The city's booking rhythm peaks in December and dips around April, so the calendar shapes which activities feel busiest: winter sees the highest demand for Tours and family-friendly Zoos & aquariums, while spring and early autumn are noticeably quieter for outings. Klook booking data shows this pattern, so plan whether you want a lively festive atmosphere or a calmer visit. Decide between peak-season energy or quieter off-peak time.
When to visit Noboribetsu
December is the clearest peak month for demand while April is the quietest, and prices drift across the year with a priciest point in January and a low in July. Klook booking data shows demand and price sometimes move together — December has strong demand and higher prices — and sometimes diverge, for example July is the cheapest month on price but not the quietest on demand levels. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider July or April; for a festive, bustling atmosphere aim for December.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | Peak demand | SGD 71 |
| February | About average | SGD 71 |
| March | Quieter than usual | SGD 50 |
| April | Very quiet | SGD 54 |
| May | About average | SGD 59 |
| June | Busier than usual | SGD 57 |
| July | Busier than usual | SGD 46 |
| August | Very quiet | SGD 63 |
| September | Very quiet | SGD 51 |
| October | About average | SGD 67 |
| November | About average | SGD 66 |
| December | Peak demand | SGD 67 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Tips for travellers from Singapore
Most travellers from Singapore typically lock things in about two weeks ahead, and a portion of planners book further out — sometimes up to five weeks out — especially for December when demand spikes. Klook booking data shows the local tendency to book earlier here, so if you’re visiting in peak months it pays to reserve experiences sooner. If your dates are flexible, you can often find lower typical prices in July or quieter conditions in April. Book on Klook to compare options and secure preferred time slots well before peak-season dates.
