This Klook day tour from Sapporo to Furano and Biei was an excellent experience overall. Although the drive from Sapporo to the attractions was quite long, the small group format made the atmosphere very relaxed, and the guide was able to attend to every traveler, avoiding the rushed feeling often associated with large tour groups.
The itinerary included classic attractions such as Ningle Terrace, Shirogane Blue Pond, Shirahige Falls, and Christmas Tree no Ki in Biei, with ample time for photos and enjoying the scenery at each location.
What's particularly commendable is that the guide provided explanations of Hokkaido's history and the stories behind the attractions in both Chinese and English, allowing travelers from different countries to understand the background of each site. The entire journey was not just about seeing the sights, but also about gaining a deeper understanding of Hokkaido's culture and origins.
Overall, the itinerary was well-planned, the guide was professional, and the attractions were definitely worth seeing.
If you're visiting Hokkaido for the first time and want to explore Furano and Biei at a relaxed pace, I highly recommend this day tour.
