Excursii Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley

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! 😊

Am făcut călătoria cu Hide Cai. Mi-a plăcut ritmul, iar obiectivele turistice erau exact ceea ce voiam să văd. Ghidul turistic vorbea bine engleza și a putut oferi informații valoroase despre locurile pe care le-am vizitat. Vremea a fost și ea cooperantă astăzi și nu am întâmpinat ploaie.

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!!

Am ieșit cu prietenii și ne-am distrat foarte bine în general. Drumul cu mașina nu a fost scurt, dar opririle multiple pentru odihnă au fost binevenite. La anumite atracții, am putut alege singuri dacă să cumpărăm bilete sau nu, fără nicio obligație. Șoferul a fost foarte amabil și ne-a reamintit cu atenție ora de întâlnire.

Ne-a plăcut foarte mult turul nostru la Muntele Yotei din Hokkaido! Preluarea și lăsarea la hotel au făcut totul atât de ușor, iar grupul mic a menținut o atmosferă relaxantă. Ghidul nostru, Wei, a fost punctual și un șofer foarte sigur, așa că ne-am simțit complet confortabil toată ziua. Programul nu a fost deloc grăbit, oferindu-ne suficient timp să ne relaxăm și să ne bucurăm de fiecare oprire. Îl recomandăm cu căldură pe Wei și acest tur!

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!

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.
