Ready to use, very convenient. There are cable cars running every fifteen minutes, and the round trip to Mount Usu takes about an hour and a half. The scenery is beautiful!

Highly recommended. The tour left the meeting place on time and was on schedule the whole day. Noboribetsu was interesting since it emitted sulphur which was said to be good for the health. Lake Toya was crowded.

The online tickets are about 20% cheaper than at site. Just show the redemption voucher on the phone at the ticketing booth to exchange for paper tickets and off we go. No queue on Nov 1 2024 when I was there. It was raining but free-to-use brollies are available when you exit the station to enter the park. The 1hr 40 mins 2-way trail to the Volcano involves some 600 steps, not for the faint-hearted. The observation deck at the cafe already offers breathtaking views for those who do not wish to walk the trail.

J.T. was our tour guide, and message us 1 day before the tour regarding which bus stop we are meeting at. He is very knowledgeable and multilingual. This tour is great because we were able to visit 3 different places on the same day. You have the option end the tour at Otaru, if you wish to stay longer at Otaru, instead of going back to Sapporo with the tour bus. Highly recommend this tour.

It’s not bad. I happened to meet a tour guide who seemed to be an intern, but he was also very careful and conscientious👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

A one-day trip allows you to visit different attractions in one go, and you can sleep on the bus along the way, making it suitable for independent travelers! The tour guide Xiaotao is very attentive. Very satisfied with this trip!

This time I participated in two one-day tours in Hokkaido. The arrangements for this group were very good. The pick-up car was a large tour bus, so long-distance driving was not difficult. The tour guide also carefully arranged the seats for all group members, which is commendable! The itinerary of each group is similar, but you can only add points for details. The tour guide introduces Hokkaido in three languages: Cantonese, Mandarin and English, which is worth extra points!
