First of all, I will tell you my age. (I am 43.) I have been there dozens of times? In particular, Hokkaido is my favorite place in Japan, so before Corona, it was my summer vacation spot with my husband, and it was my fourth visit in 2024 alone. Last week, it was my first time to Sapporo alone, and my goal was to try something I had never done before, so I tried a bus tour that I had never done before due to prejudice. It is an advantage that you can see all the hot spots in 10 hours, but it still has its disadvantages... Maybe it is because I am at an age where I can turn a slight disadvantage into an advantage and feel grateful for the goodness of people, but I felt that the guide was able to work so hard because he cherished the participants. (The guide was late when I asked if the tour participants were taking pictures, so I applauded them enthusiastically.) I am uploading a back view that I took without realizing it. (I hope you understand.)

As always, a very useful pass! The exchange is convenient and the service is friendly. It saves a lot of fares. It is recommended for travelers to Furano!

It can only be said that it is a great value. It has a car and a night view. You can enjoy both at the same price😋The only drawback is that there are so many people and no matter how you take the photo, there are always heads.

I really enjoyed this trip. The tour guide introduced the scenic spots very well in Chinese, English and Japanese. The tour time is also well controlled and highly recommended.

The night view of Hokkaido is super beautiful with a 360-degree panoramic view. Feel the tranquility of Hokkaido. Have a cocktail and listen to the space-like music of Song of the Stars. It is calming and healing.

The buffet and hot springs were all great! But please write at the top of the details page that you have to exchange the voucher for a ticket at the information center at least one day in advance. I think that's the most important point.

Really, it's quite good to be able to eat beautiful Japanese food here. Most importantly and really the city center right, a few steps away.
