Things to do in Sapporo

Sapporo is located on Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido, and stands out with its grid-like city layout and Western-style architecture, which is a legacy of 19th-century urban planning during the Meiji era. Sapporo knows how to do winter right. When the snow falls, ski resorts buzz to life and the Sapporo Snow Festival turns downtown into a glowing world of ice and creativity. Some of the best things to do in Sapporo include catching sweeping views from the Sapporo TV Tower, strolling through Odori Park, and, of course, sipping a cold glass of Sapporo beer, brewed right where it all began.

Reviews: Hokkaido Day Tour: Noboribetsu, Mt. Usu, Lake Toya & Lake Shikotsu

Thao Island was humorous and engaging, and the itinerary was well-planned. This time we parted ways in Noboribetsu, but I'd love to experience the whole tour again next time.

Wonderful tour and great snowmobiling experience (JPY20000/2 pax/snowmobile or JPY15000/pax/snowmobile, extra payment in cash only). Get to taste some local farms milk-based products (yogurt, pudding and gelato). A great trip!
Reviews: Otaru 1-day tour for cherry blossom viewing: temiya park for sakura viewing, music box hall, aquarium and tenguyama

My trip to Otaru, Hokkaido was fantastic! The driver was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about local attractions, and shared many interesting stories. The snow-covered Tenguyama Mountain was breathtaking, like stepping into a fairytale. The entire journey was relaxing and enjoyable, leaving me wanting more. I highly recommend Otaru as a winter travel destination; it's definitely worth a visit!

It was such a wonderful day trip to Hokkaido, so relaxing and enjoyable throughout. The best part was seeing such beautiful snow scenery at the end of March, which was truly amazing for us southerners.
Reviews: Hokkaido Noboribetsu Hell Valley + Lake Toya + Showa Shinzan Day Trip (Japan)

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.
