Booking experience and check in went very smoothly. Our guide J did a great job with information abouth the stops and prepped us so that we did not feel rushed.

Get picked up from Sapporo to explore Hokkaido’s natural wonders on a guided day trip featuring volcanic valleys, mountains, and scenic lakes.
Boiling springs and plumes of hot steam rising from a volcanic crater will make you realize why the place was named “Jigokudani” or “Hell Valley”.
Appreciate the beauty that resulted from volcanic eruptions at Lake Toya and Oyunuma Pond, the latter also offering an outdoor foot bath.
Ever thought of meeting bears? Showa Shinzan Bear Ranch lets you not only meet but also feed brown bears (entry at your own expense).
The day ends in Otaru, a city where old European style meets Japanese architecture. Visit an exquisite glass workshop and a curious music box museum.
