Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley-turer

I recently participated in the Hokkaido day tour provided by YH International Travel (visiting Noboribetsu Jigokudani, Cape Chikyu, Silo Observation Deck, Mount Usu and Showa Shinzan, Bear Ranch, and Lake Shikotsu), and the overall experience was extremely satisfying! I especially want to praise our tour leader, Xiao Weng (a Taiwanese who married in Japan), who is an exceptionally patient, gentle, and considerate guide. In addition to providing professional trilingual commentary in Chinese, English, and Japanese, she was also very thoughtful in arranging seating on the bus. At every attraction, she would lead everyone to the designated spot, clearly explaining the route, restroom locations, and recommended foods, and even proactively helped everyone take photos. She has a deep and acute perception of travelers' needs. Although I was a bit worried when I saw a 60% chance of rain before departure, fortune smiled upon us and the day turned out to be clear and cloudless! Not only did we witness the magnificent Jigokudani and the vast, stunning curved horizon of Cape Chikyu with our own eyes, but we also got to taste the rich Lake Shikotsu soft-serve ice cream. The only slight pity was that due to the high latitude, the sun set very quickly; the surrounding roads on the return trip were a bit dark, making it impossible to see the scenery along the way and the occasionally passing wild deer, so we just took the opportunity to rest and catch up on sleep on the bus. The pace of this itinerary was well arranged, plus the fellow passengers on the bus were all punctual, and the tour leader took such careful care of everyone. I highly recommend this trip and tour leader Xiao Weng!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience on our Hokkaido day tour with Jenny! From start to finish, everything was organized seamlessly. Jenny was extremely friendly, attentive, and kept us on schedule while ensuring everyone had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Her clear instructions regarding pick-up points and timing made the whole day stress-free. If you're booking a day tour to explore in Hokkaido, I highly recommend Jenny as your guide! Thank you for a memorable day! 😊

Jeg tok turen med hide cai. Jeg likte tempoet, og stedene var det jeg ønsket å se. Reiselederen snakket godt engelsk og kunne gi verdifull informasjon om stedene vi besøkte. Været var også på vår side i dag, og vi slapp unna regn.

The trip was packed with attractions and shout out to our guide, Jenny, cus she’s amazing. She’s fun, informative, and honest about what’s worth doing and buying. It wouldn’t be as fun without her. This is an easy way to see a lot of things in one day and good for solo travelers. Also, get the ice cream at Farm Hill. It’s so good.

Noboribetsu in autumn season is one of the most stunning places I have ever seen! The 1.5H drive is definitely worth it! The view of Mt Yotei from the Niseko Milk Factory is just 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼. Our tourguide, Sei, is also very friendly and tried his best to explain the places we visited. He’s also very helpful in taking good photos!!

Jeg tok med en venn for å oppleve dette sammen, og vi hadde en svært hyggelig tur totalt sett. Kjøreturen var ganske lang, men det var lagt inn flere stopp underveis for hvile, noe som gjorde det helt overkommelig. Ved enkelte attraksjoner kunne man selv velge om man ville kjøpe billett for å gå inn, uten noe som helst press. Sjåføren var kjempeflott og ga omtenksomme påminnelser om oppmøtetider.

Vi elsket vår Hokkaido Mount Yotei-tur! Henting og levering på hotellet gjorde alt så enkelt, og den lille gruppestørrelsen gjorde det avslappende. Guiden vår, Wei, var presis og en veldig trygg sjåfør, så vi følte oss helt komfortable hele dagen. Tidsplanen var ikke stressende i det hele tatt, noe som ga oss god tid til å lene oss tilbake og nyte hvert stopp. Anbefaler Wei og denne turen på det sterkeste!

Really enjoyable tour & thanks to Catherine our guide who patiently explained things to us in 4 languages! The lunch was really tasty & worth the price paid. Just wish to have more time at the Showa-Shinzan to see the bears as well as Mt Usu ropeway. It was a bit rushed. Anyway it is still a very good tour.

We would like to compliment our tour guide, Mr Lim, who is Taiwanese-born and currently based in Sapporo. He is fluent in Japanese, Mandarin and English, which made communication with all passengers smooth and easy. Mr Lim was very professional, friendly and well-organised throughout the tour. He managed the schedule efficiently and consistently reminded everyone to be punctual and return to the coach on time after each sightseeing stop. This helped ensure that the tour proceeded smoothly without unnecessary delays. The overall itinerary and timing were just right, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful scenery at Lake Toya, explore the fascinating Hell Valley (Jigokudani) and conclude the day with some shopping at Mitsui Outlet Park. We truly appreciated his excellent coordination, clear communication and attentive arrangements. Thank you, Mr Lim, for making our sightseeing experience enjoyable, comfortable and hassle-free. Keep up the great work!
