Hokkaido
If you love the great outdoors and seasonal activities, then Hokkaido is the perfect place for you to visit in Japan. Slide down snowy slopes at ski resorts during winter, walk through a sea of lavender fields in Furano during the summer, or explore the pristine Blue Pond to see various hot springs around Biei.
Get a taste of Hokkaido's food scene as well: slurp on a bowl of Sapporo ramen at Ramen Yokocho at Susukino and pair it up with a beer tour at the Sapporo Beer Museum! Surrounded by the ocean, you can bet that the seafood served in Hokkaido is fresh and definitely one of the world's best. Afterward, why not pay a visit to a pachinko parlor to boost your luck?

Highly recommended
Amazing experience that we will never forget! Worth the money worth the scenic journey. Best winter experience in Hokkaido seeing the cute penguins parade at Asahiyama Zoo then we had lunch at Furano Herb Garden and tasted the Lavendar Ice Cream. Captured the beautiful view of Shirahige Waterfall but nothing much on the blue pond as everywhere is covered in thick snow. Last pit stop is the The Ningle Terrace,the cottage style shops and the evening light ups is beautiful during winter.

You can plan your travel abroad in Taiwan. The e-tickets bought by klook can also be used abroad. Don’t worry if you can’t find the itinerary, you can go to the Zhushan cable car. There is a short trail to take a walk to the top of the mountain. The view from the top of the mountain is very refreshing, but it is recommended to wear a hat, because sometimes the wind blows and the head is cold.

It was my first time in Hokkaido and I decided to take a tour from Sapporo to Furano, which is much easier than going by myself. The tour was great and comfortable. The tour guide was super friendly, although her English is a little hard to understand (fortunately I can speak Japanese). I just wish I could visit the blue pond, instead of going to 2 flower fields (Shiki no Oka, Farm Tomita). I think 1 field is good enough.

Very good itinerary. Departing from downtown Sapporo that day, take an exclusive bus directly to the zoo. Lunch is a self-service meal. The dining room is very ample and you can’t eat in a hurry. The only pity is to go to the forest fairy terrace to deduct the queue for the toilet. With 10 minutes left, there is no time to visit the small shop carefully.

We decided to have private chauffeur straight to our hotel from the airport as we travel in a group of elders. Since we went there during winter , the snows might be too slippery for you to travel by foot and taking public transport. So it is very convenient and easy process, the driver will wait on the arrival gate with our name. So no need to worries about communication problems.
