The itinerary is well planned and the stay time is quite sufficient. These scenic spots are places that are not easily accessible by public transportation. It is very convenient to take a one-day tour and it is worth recommending! The tour guide Michelle can speak multiple languages and tries her best to explain so that people from all countries can understand. She is a very responsible tour guide! praise!

Recently joined this tour from Sapporo, and it was a fantastic experience. The colorful flower fields at Shikisai Hill were beautiful, the Shirogane Blue Pond was serene and enchanting, and Farm Tomita’s flower fields, along with the lavender and melon ice cream and snacks, were a treat. The service was excellent as our guide was friendly and informative, the itinerary was well-paced, and the transport was comfortable. Overall, it was a scenic and relaxing day trip. I highly recommend it!

Michelle's tour guide is enthusiastic and explains in detail in Chinese and English. In terms of transportation, it would be better if we send a big bus, but the small bus is a bit crowded.

The tour guide is very professional and can easily switch between three languages to explain Hokkaido. The itinerary is also very well organized. It rained heavily that day, and the waterfalls were filled with muddy water. However, the key point of the itinerary was to go to Shikisai no Oka and Tomita Farm when the rain stopped and the sun shone brightly on the way back, so that we could see the beautiful scenery. Highly recommended!

I am very happy to participate in a one-day tour today. The tour guide, Ms. Zhou Yan, is very nice. She also sent me the itinerary online and let me know the attractions and the approximate departure time of the attractions. Mr. Yamazaki, the driver and tour guide who changed cars midway, was also very responsible. In the car, he would introduce the scenic spots and the food to eat. He worked hard along the way and explained it to us while driving! Thank you to these two tour guides for letting me and my daughter have a great time! Thanks

The day before departure, the driver clearly informed us of the meeting place and bus number. He also introduced the changes and current situation between Sapporo and Furano along the way. He arranged a moderate stay at the scenic spots (definitely enough, but not able to go and savor them). The driver also introduced the convenience and convenience Restaurants to eat and recommended food. The team members all gathered on time and set off on time. It is a very good itinerary for self-guided travelers who do not drive by themselves! Personal experience: If you have seniors or children taking the park train to Shikisai-no-Hill, it costs $500/person. It saves time and effort. If you have enough foot strength, it is not necessary. Walking down the hill will not take too much time.
