Lucruri de făcut în Tree of Ken and Mary

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 that met all my expectations and decided to join for the first time! I was initially worried because the guide and driver were foreigners, but they provided explanations and guidance meticulously in both Japanese and their native language, and they were very pleasant! At the zoo, we barely had enough time to look around and didn't have a chance to eat lunch. I thought an extra 30 minutes would have been nice. Also, I wondered if we would have seen the main animals better if we had entered through the main gate. Overall, though, it was enjoyable to see many animals unique to Hokkaido! The Seven Star Tree and the Patchwork Road were also very beautiful! Farm Tomita was crowded with tourists, and I couldn't try the melon souvenirs, so I wished I had more time there. Nevertheless, I'm grateful and had a great time visiting many places I wouldn't have been able to see on my own. Thank you very much!

Our tour guide, Lucy, provided detailed explanations of Hokkaido's itinerary, culture, and history in Mandarin, English, and Japanese. Her presentation was rich and engaging, and her dedication was evident, making the entire trip very enjoyable. The driver's skills were excellent, balancing speed and safety, which made us feel secure. The only downside was that some group members were late, which delayed the itinerary and ultimately prevented us from buying the blue ice cream. The round-trip minibus journey, lasting about 4 hours, was quite long, and sitting for an extended period left my lower back and hips feeling a bit numb and uncomfortable. Overall, if you want to experience the attractions around Furano and Biei quickly within a limited time, this tour is still a good option. It's especially recommended for first-time visitors to Hokkaido who wish to see multiple sights in one go.

În ziua excursiei, vremea a fost foarte bună și, din fericire, nu erau mulți turiști, așa că am putut să ne plimbăm și să facem fotografii în voie, iar peisajul a fost de asemenea foarte frumos. Ghidul nostru, Xiao Dong, ne-a recomandat porumbul local, care a fost foarte dulce. Nu am optat pentru oferta de pepene galben „mănânci cât poți”, dar se vindea și pepene galben la bucată, așa că am simțit că o felie sau două erau suficiente pentru a gusta. Dacă doriți să încercați înghețată cu aromă de lavandă și pepene galben, nu trebuie să vă faceți griji, la ferma Tomita există înghețată cu arome combinate, astfel încât să puteți gusta ambele arome deodată. Întregul program a fost perfect organizat, având suficient timp pentru a explora și a face fotografii, fără a fi prea aglomerat. Timpul de odihnă dintre activități a fost mai mult decât suficient, iar autobuzul și împrejurimile atracțiilor turistice au fost foarte curate. Ghidul nostru, Xiao Dong, a fost de asemenea foarte entuziast, ne-a povestit despre gustările și produsele locale și ne-a indicat locuri unde puteam cumpăra produse la un preț bun.

Am participat la un tur de o zi în Furano, iar programul a fost foarte bine organizat pe tot parcursul zilei. Deși au fost multe atracții și ritmul a fost destul de alert, am avut suficient timp la fiecare locație pentru a face fotografii și a mânca, așa că organizarea a fost în regulă. Înainte de plecare, am citit recenzii în care unii menționau că le-a fost foame, dar de fapt, la fiecare atracție de pe parcurs erau lucruri de cumpărat și de mâncat – porumbul alb din Hokkaido este super dulce, chiflele cu pepene galben sunt aromate și moi, iar crochetele sunt delicioase, așa că nu trebuie să vă faceți griji că vă va fi foame. Trebuie să o lăudăm în mod special pe ghida noastră, Chillin! În grup erau străini, japonezi, chinezi și oameni din Hong Kong, iar ea a reușit să comunice cu toți în limbile lor, explicând clar și fiind foarte amabilă, ceea ce a creat o atmosferă excelentă în întregul grup. Cel mai norocos aspect a fost că toți membrii grupului au fost super punctuali, astfel încât timpul la fiecare punct a fost gestionat perfect, fără întârzieri. Ghida ne-a și sfătuit la fiecare atracție ce suveniruri merită cumpărate, care sunt mai ieftine și care oferă cel mai bun raport calitate-preț, ceea ce a fost extrem de util pentru cei care au dificultăți la cumpărături! În general, acest tur a avut un raport calitate-preț foarte bun și îl recomand celor care doresc să viziteze mai multe atracții clasice într-o singură zi.

wonderful experience with our guide Lucy who is patient, warm and hospitable. she shared many interesting facts about the various sites and Hokkaido in general. we enjoyed the trip more so with her as our guide. the itinerary is good and rather packed but it’s fine as we get to see more places.

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!

We had a great trip and it was a special day in March since it was snowing, we just wanted to have viewed each location more as 20minutes allocation per area is a bit tight, considering the snowy and slippery roads that we have to walk to and we have a senior family member. Dara was very understanding of the passengers even though we’re late to return. And I hope that there is a charging port at the bus since almost all our tours has an outlet in the bus except for this one.

It was a very relaxed trip, especially since we visited many places with shorter停留 times. I'm very grateful to our Taiwanese tour guide, Xiao Hong, for his enthusiastic help. Afterward, he even shared beautiful scenic photos and discount coupons with everyone!

The tour guide and driver were both excellent. However, the quality of fellow travelers can be a hit or miss. Two Thai women kept talking loudly while the guide was explaining the day's itinerary, making it impossible to hear what the guide was saying. It really detracted from the experience. If you can't be considerate, you shouldn't travel! Unfortunately, there were no other seats available to move to. Sigh.
