Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

What made this tour especially enjoyable was that it did not feel like a typical tour at all. It felt more like going around with a friend. Lily was a very sweet and kind tour guide, and she made everyone feel comfortable from the start. She took photos for me and my husband, which was really appreciated. There was enough time at each stop to explore the area without feeling rushed. Lily speaks Chinese, Japanese, and English. While her English is not perfect, she tries her best and communicates clearly enough to make everyone feel at ease. The small extras were a nice touch, including discount coupons and free ice cream at Lake Hill Farm. Most importantly, she made sure everyone was accounted for at all times and never left anyone behind. This tour is highly recommended, especially for solo travelers, as it feels safe, relaxed, and enjoyable.

The overall itinerary was very well arranged and went smoothly! The driver and tour guide were both super good! Especially our tour guide, Brother Xiaotong! A super kind and reliable guy!!! Because we needed to leave the group early, Brother Tong was very concerned about whether we got home safely, and he kept following up on our itinerary along the way. The itinerary itself was also arranged very well, and we had a smooth and happy trip! Thanks to Tour Guide Tong! Highly recommend the snowmobile trip, it's fun and you can see beautiful scenery, definitely worth it!

Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

The tour guide (who can communicate in Chinese and English) and the driver (who can communicate in English) were very polite. The tour guide will send a message the day before departure to inform you of the meeting information. As the Bear Ranch restaurant is closed for repairs until January 31, 2026, the itinerary will arrange for us to buy hot food at a convenience store along the way to eat on the bus. The snowmobile experience is very good, and it is highly recommended to participate at your own expense. All of my tour group members participated! You need to prepare your own ski suit or wear warm and waterproof clothing. The venue does not provide rental clothing, only free helmets and gloves. If you are a little concerned about hygiene, you can also prepare your own ski warm gloves, as the finger area will be very cold. The snowmobile experience takes about 1 hour round trip. If you choose a two-person snowmobile, you cannot change people midway. After driving to the mountain, there is a place to stop and take pictures and rest.

Excellent tour! Rita is always willing to solve problems and explain the places visited. The bear sanctuary is quite beautiful, and the snowmobile ride is a blast! Great for enjoying the view of the lake.

Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

Besides the snowmobile guide, you'll be visiting the other attractions on your own. The bear ranch stay is only one hour, including lunchtime, so time will be a bit tight. Also, the restaurant location isn't very clear, so you need to manage your time to find a restaurant and eat. I didn't get lunch because I spent too long watching the bears 😅. This time, our guide was a young man named Kenichi Matsuura. He was very friendly and talkative. I'm glad he was able to lead us on this trip.

Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

Our tour guide, Jay, is super experienced, fluent in switching between Chinese, English, and Japanese, and a true professional when it comes to time management. He knows every attraction inside and out and can even explain the geography and cultural history. Highly recommend booking a group tour to easily enjoy the service and natural beauty.

Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

The tour guide was really kind and considerate. It was unfortunate that we had a crying toddler in our van though, sleep and rest in between stations was compromised. Nonetheless, it was a great tour. Kind of rushed — especially during the Bear Farm visit with the lunch — but worth it. Another plus is the free ice cream, it was good!

Review for: 【Limited Time Special】Hokkaido Noboribetsu Toya Snowmobile Panoramic Day Tour

The whole trip today was wonderfully arranged, mainly because we met a super nice tour guide (Guide Zheng). They freely switched between Chinese, English, and Japanese for explanations, and patiently guided us on how to take the bus and make bus reservations. We departed from Sapporo and visited all the main attractions, including the Bear Ranch, Hell Valley, the Farm, the Observatory, and the most fun snowmobiling (1 hour), which is highly recommended!

Shoutout to our guide RITA for making this trip so enjoyable. Her positive energy made everyone feel real comfortable and relaxed throughout the whole trip and I think she is one of the best (and prettiest :p) guides around. If you happen to have her to be your guide., you are in for a good time. The tour itinerary was okay
