Otaru Orgel Museum rundturer

Jag bokade den här turen främst för att jag ville besöka Kap Kamui, vilket inte är lätt att nå med kollektivtrafik. Att få se det berömda Shakotan-blå på en klar dag var absolut värt priset och den långa resan. Den extra bonusen var att få se Shakotan-kusten, besöka Otaru och stanna till vid Shiroi Koibito Park under samma dag. Som förväntat var tidsschemat ganska tight, men det är förståeligt med tanke på de långa avstånd vi behövde avverka och antalet platser som ingick i resplanen. Vår guide, Cici, var trevlig och hjälpsam. Jag kände dock att turen kunde ha varit mer informativ. Hon gav översättningar på japanska och kinesiska och läste de engelska beskrivningarna från sina anteckningar, men det fanns inte så mycket extra intressant information eller berättande om de platser vi besökte. Lite mer bakgrundsinformation, lokalhistoria eller intressanta fakta hade gjort upplevelsen mer engagerande.

Miss Marica was very punctual. Even though it was a stormy day with rain and snow, she drove comfortably, took us even to nearby places, and when we asked about places like coffee shops, she recommended a great spot. The car was also so comfortable that I traveled almost the entire time sleeping in a nearly lying-down position.

We really enjoyed the trip to Hell Valley, Lake Toya and Otaru. Our tour guide is very nice,professional,and thoughtful. He explained the history of Hokkaido and every scenic spots in detail . we booked three tours via klook. We got to say that compared to other tour guides in other tour group, this tour guide has excellent language skills in English, Chinese and Japanese. And we also noticed that during our trip only one visitor from Spain needed to have English interpretation. In order not to disturb other visitors, he walked to the back row,sat with him and interpreted for him. Other things which impressed us a lot are a variety of music boxes and steaming Hell Vally. By the way, we will definitely come back to Hokkaido in the winter again.

The schedule for this trip was very well organized, with appropriate time allocated for each attraction. The tour guide, Xiao Liao, provided prompt reminders and warm, professional service, communicating very well in Chinese, English, and Japanese. By the way, participants can choose between the Yoichi Distillery and the fruit-picking orchard based on their preferences, and the driver will pick everyone up individually.

Vi hade en fantastisk resa när vi besökte Shakotan Blue, Otaru-kanalen och Shiroi Koibito Park. Vår reseledare, Hong, var enastående – hans kommunikation kring mötesplatser och förväntningar på turen var alltid tydlig och välordnad. Jag blev särskilt imponerad av hans förmåga att tala flytande koreanska, engelska och kinesiska, vilket gjorde att han på ett enkelt sätt kunde tillgodose de olika nationaliteterna i vår grupp. Rekommenderas varmt!

We were blessed to have Rick as our tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and speaks English, Chinese and Japanese fluently. The itinerary was well planned, and we had so much fun today. We also had an excellent driver, which made it easy to relax and rest on the bus between stops. If you’re climbing Cape Kamui, do wear comfortable shoes. It’s quite a climb, but the views are absolutely worth it. Highly recommend this tour, especially for first-time visitors to Hokkaido!
