Shirogane Blue Pond-turer

25. august 2026, møttes vi ved utgang 31 på Datong stasjon for å delta på turen som startet kl. 11:10. Vi møtte den elegante og kultiverte reiselederen Hanna og sjåføren Mr. Kasai. Reiselederen ga en svært profesjonell forklaring av reiseruten og servicen underveis. Fordelen med å dra litt senere var at vi slapp å møte for mange folkemengder og unngikk rushtrafikken på returen. Vi trengte heller ikke å stå i kø for å spise middag. Selv om reisen var litt lang, var det vel verdt det for den vakre naturen. Vi besøkte Aoiike (Den blå dammen), en urtehage (shopping – lavendelprodukter), Shikisai no Oka, Farm Tomita, en melonfarm og Ningle Terrace (opplyst skog) ved Furano Prince Hotel (kveldsaktivitet) – retur kl. 21:00.

Svært godt organisert. Reiselederen Jenny tok kontakt dagen før og forklarte reiseruten samt møtestedet, veldig tydelig og til hjelp. Elskede alle stedene vi besøkte, og nøt utsikten veldig mye. Jenny fortalte også om alle stedene vi besøkte. Elsket spesielt Den blå dammen i Biei, Tomita-parken, Shikisai no oka og Shirahige-fossen.

Hadde en fantastisk dagstur til Biei og Furano! 🍂🇯🇵 Stor takk til Lucy for fine turforberedelser og vennlig service, og til sjåførene for at de var punktlige, profesjonelle og kjørte trygt. Alt gikk knirkefritt, og vi hadde en utrolig tid med å utforske Hokkaidos vakre landskap. Anbefales på det sterkeste! ❤️✨

experienced snow for october. and the temperature dropped 1.5 degrees, layered clothing is advisable. easy to find both the tour guide and bus. cissy can speak 3 languages 🫡English, Mandarin, and Japanese. our driver was fantastic. the places are awesome when covered with snow. to be better -a little information such as feeding time of the animals can be added

A well-designed itinerary that allows just enough time to enjoy each destination without feeling too rushed. Our wonderful guide James speak three languages including Chinese and English. He's very attentive and helpful. The lavender is already gone in late September but the other flowers are still in bloom. 100% recommended!

Omvisningen var utmerket, og det beste var at reiselederen vår, Andy, klarte å unngå de lange køene ved lunsjen og andre attraksjoner fordi timingen hans var perfekt. Stedene vi besøkte var alle vakre, godt hjelpt av at himmelen var klar. ANBEFALES PÅ DET STERKESTE å gjøre mens du er i Hokkaido. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The day trip including lunch to the charming town of Biei covered about 6 attractions. Great value for the price. I really liked the Blue Pond. I truly wouldn't recommend Shikisai-no-Oka in October, there really isn't much to see. Our tour guide, Cinna, was very nice and looked after everyone. Since there were many Korean tourists in this group, there was another lovely Korean guide who was very expressive and spoke a lot. Even though I didn't understand what she was saying, she kept waving both hands goodbye as she saw us off. Both guides took good care of everyone, helped take photos, and introduced each spot. The only area for improvement is that when first contacting tour members, the email sent a WhatsApp link. With so many scams nowadays, I don't click on links like that. Although I missed out on a lot of pre-trip information, I arrived at the meeting point about 20 minutes early on the day of departure. This is a fast-paced yet efficient way to see most of Biei's attractions in a single day. Personally, I love the town of Biei for its peace and tranquility.

Decided to go with Klook for this full day tour to the Asahiyama zoo, patchwork road(Ken & Mary tree), Blue pond, waterfall and elves village.. was pretty fulfilling but its a bit rushed no doubt. But we get to experience the beauty of the blue pond and waterfall w/o worrying about the transport. Guide was pretty friendly and was our photographer for the group pics! Totally would recommend this to all 1st timers in Hokkaido!

The one-day tour itinerary is very well-planned, starting with the zoo and then heading south to check out various attractions along the way. The water at Shirahane Pond makes for great photos, and a 20-minute stop is plenty of time without lingering long enough to cause visual fatigue.
