Reviews: Hokkaido Lake Tōya + Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley + Snowmobile + Lakeside Farm 1-day Tour
Guest User2025-12-11
Both snowmobiling and the bear ranch are worth experiencing. Before setting off, I thought they were similar, but in the end, I went to both. Snowmobiling is better with one per person (15,000 yen per snowmobile, cash only). At the bear ranch, it's 1,000 yen per person, and food is 200 yen per bag, also cash only. You can bring apples—I love their apples—it's really cool! The itinerary is a bit hardcore, so buy plenty of convenience store snacks to eat on the go.★

Reviews: Hokkaido Noboribetsu Hell Valley + Lake Toya + Showa Shinzan Day Trip (Japan)
Guest User2025-11-18
I joined the tour on November 15th. The bus was almost full, with people from many different countries in the group, but it was always our compatriots who were late. Sigh.
Our tour guide, Vivi, was very good. She had to speak the exact same thing in three languages, which must have been quite tiring.
The stops at each attraction were short. It was pretty much a quick visit, but there was no other way, as it was too far and time was tight.
The weather was so-so this time, mostly overcast, but during a brief break in the sunshine, I saw half of Mount Yotei and immediately took a picture.★

Reviews: Hokkaido Lake Tōya Snowmobile + Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley + Lakeside Farm 1-day Tour
Guest User2026-02-08
I chose to visit Jigokudani (Hell Valley) as my last stop, then checked directly into Ryūnoya, a hot spring resort in Noboribetsu. I left my large luggage at my hotel in Sapporo and only brought a small suitcase to Noboribetsu, having informed customer service beforehand. They were wonderful; they left our luggage there for free. The tour guide was also very friendly and professional, and the entire itinerary was well-organized. The snowmobile ride at Lake Toya was amazing, the pie at Lake Hill was delicious, the lake view from the observation deck was beautiful, and the bear ranch was definitely worth seeing. Jigokudani was spectacular. Finally, the tour guide noticed that the bus from my hotel passed by and let us park there for free, so we didn't have to drag our luggage through Jigokudani. Thank you so much to the tour guide and driver! Overall, this tour was very worthwhile. The tour guide informed us of the pick-up location the night before, and the customer service was excellent and responded quickly. It was a very clear and helpful tour, highly recommended. Tour guide Xiaoyu was fantastic!★

Reviews: Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort day tour in Hokkaido, Japan - beginner and advanced slopes, optional instructor package
Guest User2025-01-17
The experience was fantastic! As listed, it includes approximately a 1.5-hour beginner lesson, equipment (excluding helmet), a lift ticket, and then free time! Highly recommended for beginners (i.e., those who have skied a few times before), but first-timers will definitely find the free time challenging as the slopes are very steep! However, if you simply want to enjoy the feeling of being in the snow and learn to ski, it's absolutely worth it.★

Reviews: Sapporo 1-day tour | Hill of the Buddha · Jozankei Onsen · Seafood Market · Mount Moiwa, Hokkaido
Guest User2025-11-23
First Stop: Jozankei Onsen ♨
As Hokkaido's most famous hot spring resort, Jozankei is not far from Sapporo and is known as "Sapporo's backyard." It has a deep connection with the "Kappa" legend, with adorable Kappa elements everywhere, even on manhole covers! Unfortunately, we only had an hour this time, just enough for a quick photo op and a free foot bath! Although comfortable, I recommend staying overnight if you have the time to truly relax in the hot springs.
Second Stop: Great Buddha Head
Tadao Ando's design is absolutely brilliant! The originally solitary Great Buddha was completely "hidden" by a circular hill covered in lavender, with only the Buddha's head visible. The visit is like a ritual: first, you walk across the water, then enter a dark, winding tunnel, and finally, suddenly, you look up to see the Great Buddha solemnly appearing under the sky—the awe is something you have to experience to understand. It's very photogenic and has a Zen-like atmosphere.
Third Stop: Hokkaido Shrine
This shrine was built during the pioneering period and has a long history. However, if you've already visited many shrines in Japan, this one might not offer many surprises. The grounds aren't very large, and buying amulets is up to you. However, the Rokkatei outside the shrine is worth a try; it's a comfortable place to relax and enjoy some sweets.
Fourth Stop: Shiroi Koibito (White Lover) Factory
While called a factory, it's more like a fairytale-themed park. You can watch the cookie production line, try DIY, and take great photos. It's also suitable for families with children. However, frankly, if you're not particularly interested in dessert making, you might find it a bit commercialized. Also, you can buy Shiroi Koibito cookies at the airport, so you don't necessarily need to buy them here.
Fifth Stop: Sapporo Beer Museum
If you like beer, this is definitely worth a visit! The red brick building has a lot of character, and you can learn about beer history. Most importantly—you can drink Sapporo draft beer! We tried two glasses; the taste was fresh and smooth, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant. It's a great place to end the day with a light buzz.
Overall, this day trip itinerary is perfect for tourists like myself who are visiting Hokkaido for the first time and are unfamiliar with everything. Each of the attractions is representative, and visiting them all in one trip provides a vivid first impression of Hokkaido's culture and history.
Traveling with a car also saves you the trouble of figuring out transportation yourself, making it convenient and hassle-free. As for whether each attraction is "fun," that's truly a matter of personal opinion—isn't that what travel is all about? Visiting places others are used to, taking photos in unfamiliar surroundings, and wandering around freely is itself an interesting experience.★

Reviews: 1-day tour to Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort in Hokkaido, Japan - Beginner & advanced slopes with optional 2-hour coach package
Guest User2026-01-15
Very good package - you can choose whether you need the instructor which luckily I did get that package. From pick up from the train station till the drop off everything is very streamlined and efficient. Staff is also great. I thought that I had booked an English instructor but was given a Chinese instructor, no big deal but an English instructor would make it better
