Passeios por Shirogane Blue Pond

On August 25, 2026, we met at Exit 31 of Datong Station to join the 11:10 AM tour. We had the pleasure of having Hanna, a very elegant and knowledgeable tour guide, and Mr. Kasai, our driver. Hanna professionally explained the itinerary and provided excellent service throughout the trip. The advantage of departing a bit later was truly great, as we avoided large crowds and rush hour traffic on the way back. We didn't even have to wait in line for dinner. Although the journey was a bit long, it was well worth it for the beautiful scenery. We visited the Blue Pond, the Herb Garden (shopping for lavender products), Shikisai-no-Oka, Farm Tomita, a melon farm, and enjoyed the illuminated Ningle Terrace at Furano Prince Hotel (a nighttime activity). We returned at 9 PM.

We joined a one-day tour in Furano, and the itinerary was very smooth throughout the day. Although there were many attractions and the pace was a bit fast, enough time was allocated at each location for taking photos and eating, so the arrangement was perfectly fine. Before departing, I saw some reviews mentioning that people might get hungry, but in fact, there were things to buy and eat at every attraction along the way—Hokkaido white corn is super sweet, melon bread is fragrant and soft, and croquettes are also delicious, so there's absolutely no need to worry about hunger. Special praise goes to our tour guide, Chillin! The group included foreigners, Japanese, Chinese, and Hong Kongers, and she was able to communicate with everyone in their respective languages. Her explanations were clear and friendly, which created a great atmosphere for the entire group. The luckiest part was that all group members were incredibly punctual, so the timing at each stop was perfectly controlled, with no delays at all. The tour guide also gave tips at the attractions on which souvenirs were worth buying, which were cheap, and which offered high value for money, which was very practical for those who struggle with shopping! Overall, this tour offers great value for money and is recommended for anyone who wants to visit multiple classic attractions in one day.

素晴らしい経験でした。ガイドのルーシーは忍耐強く、温かく、親切でした。彼女は様々な場所や北海道全般について多くの興味深い事実を教えてくれました。彼女がガイドだったので、私たちは旅行をより楽しむことができました。旅程は充実していてかなり詰まっていましたが、より多くの場所を見ることができたので良かったです。

This was my first time in Hokkaido, and I was traveling alone with limited mobility, so I was a bit anxious. However, I found a tour plan that met all my hopes and decided to join a tour for the first time! I was initially worried because the guide and driver were foreigners, but they explained and guided us carefully in both Japanese and a foreign language, and they were very pleasant! At the zoo, I barely had enough time to look around and didn't have time for lunch. I thought another 30 minutes would have been nice. Also, I wondered if I would have seen the main animals better if I had entered through the main gate, but overall, it was fun seeing many animals unique to Hokkaido! The Seven Star Tree and Patchwork Road were also very lovely! Farm Tomita had many tourists, and I couldn't eat the melon souvenir, so I wished I had a little more time. Nevertheless, I'm grateful and had a great time as they showed me many places I couldn't have visited on my own. Thank you very much!

The weather on the day of the tour was wonderful, and coincidentally there weren't many tourists, so we could freely explore and take pictures. The scenery was also extremely beautiful. Our tour guide, Xiao Dong, recommended the local corn, which was very sweet. I chose not to participate in the all-you-can-eat melon option, but they also sold melons individually there, so I felt that having one or two slices was already enough just to get a taste. If you want to try both lavender and melon-flavored ice cream, you don't have to hesitate; Farm Tomita offers a mixed flavor where you can taste both at once. The schedule for the entire trip was well-arranged, providing enough time to thoroughly explore and take photos without feeling too rushed. The rest breaks in between were ample, and both the coach bus and the surrounding scenic spots were very clean. Guide Xiao Dong was also extremely enthusiastic, telling us about local snacks and products, as well as where to buy them at the best value.

小型巴士團。旅程順暢，行程安排很棒，導遊Baku非常出色。Baku在旅途中給了我們很多很棒的建議（例如在服務中心買什麼，在美瑛車站哪裡吃午餐……）。我們非常享受這次旅程！感謝團隊的努力！！！

Leo is amazing! He is very knowledgeable and direct to the point. He is very fluent in 3 languages and give directions in all three so no one is left behind. Can you believe that we actually left on time in all stops? Whenever we passed him after getting off the bus, he swtiches to english and remind us about the instructions and switch to another language when another tourist passes him by. He is excellent! We also got to our destinations before everyone elses. He also offered assistance and explanations when needed. very happy with this tour! We recommend Leo very much!

The tour was excellent! We visited many places. Even though there were only 4 of us, we had a small car, like an Alphard, which felt like a private tour. The driver was very helpful, communicated well, was polite, and always smiling. We got to see everything on the itinerary, plus they added Tomita Farm and a herb garden for us. The time spent at each stop was just right, and the weather was great. Everything went smoothly and comfortably. I highly recommend it!

Amazing Hokkaido Day Trip with Lucy! We had a wonderful day exploring the beautiful sights of Hokkaido! Lucy was an excellent guide—friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the entire trip. She made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a great experience. Our driver was also fantastic, providing a smooth and safe journey. Everything was well-organized, and we truly enjoyed every moment. A big thank you to Lucy and our driver for making this day so memorable! Highly recommended!
