It's so easy to travel independently, so it's so convenient to use a package tour. Our guide, Lisa, is also very kind. She also easily informed us of the meeting time.

I was dissatisfied with being assigned to sit at the back as soon as I got on the bus, but the tour guide Onodera continued to care about my physical condition (because I am prone to motion sickness). I must indicate it when booking next time to protect my rights (I will not change my seat on site). Lunch is a buffet + small hot pot, which is delicious. Except for the seating arrangement, which is quite unsatisfactory, other aspects such as: itinerary arrangement and professionalism of the tour guide are excellent.

The itinerary is substantial, the scenic spots are beautiful, and the CP value is high. You can see more scenic spots in a limited time. If you come to Hokkaido, you can participate and experience it.

Because Sapporo is far away, I joined a one-day group tour. The tour guide was very responsible and explained in three or four languages. The itinerary was also well controlled. Although the time was short, it was still very good. Highly recommended!

First of all, I would like to express my appreciation to the tour guide and group leader of this trip, Liza from Shandong, for giving full play to her professionalism and carefulness. Her explanations were very clear and without unnecessary words. The weather was also very good. The more than 30 people in the group were very cooperative and no one was late except for me. Because I was eating a cone in Platinum Qingchi and wanted to take a photo, I dropped the first half of the soft ice cream before eating or taking a photo, causing my hands, clothes and ground to get dirty. I had to clean it up, but it was 1 minute late. Fortunately, the other group members were tolerant and the driver Mr. Tezuka was also very professional in driving. The only drawback was that we couldn’t see the penguin parade at Asahikawa Zoo, which was a bit disappointing!
