Ko emailed the day before and formed a group chat for sending info. He also sent links of recommended restaurants/tea house in different locations, which was very helpful for us travelers. He even sent us a list of restaurants at the end of the trip for our dinner. It’s so nice to have local people that are knowledgable and kind to show tourists places. It adds a layer of welcome to people that are from out of town. The destinations on this trip are also highlights of Sapporo area we wanted to go. Each is not too far from the other. It was a very enjoyable itinerary. Both Ko our tour guide and our driver had done an excellent job. Would definitely recommend this to our friends!

Sei (our tour guide) was such a warm friendly person, he would recommend food for us to try and give info about the place, everything was clear and as described. I just wish the Shrine was hust for 45mins and addtnl 15mins to Shiroi Koibito so it’s also 45mins instead of 30mins. Other than that all good, I would recommend this tour!

Hamid spoke fluent English and Japanese,. He clearly explained each attraction and its historical significance before arrival. He was the consummate host-tour guide, ensuring everyone’s comfort and awareness of dining options and popular snacks. He thoughtfully helped to calm fussy children by showing them anime on his smartphone, with parents expressing great appreciation. Highly recommend tour with Hamid!

Brett was a wonderful guide. Easy to understand and very helpful. Even though it rained most of the day we still had a great time.

The excursion was wonderful. Kundan speaks excellent English, is attentive, and helps with any questions. I felt very comfortable and had a great time.

Program

Depart from central Sapporo
and travel from the Hill of the Buddha to Otaru in a day

Depart by bus from Odori Station or Sapporo Station, whichever you chose when booking. Visit the Hill of the Buddha, Hokkaido Jingu Shrine and Maruyama Park, and Shiroi Koibito Park, then head to Otaru in the afternoon and return to Sapporo in the evening. The guide speaks English and Korean.

See the Hill of the Buddha and Hokkaido Jingu Shrine

The first stop is the Hill of the Buddha, famous for its majestic architecture. Explore the Buddha and the Moai statues and take photos (admission extra). Then move on to historic Hokkaido Jingu Shrine and Maruyama Park for a peaceful walk. In spring, you can enjoy scenery surrounded by cherry blossoms.

Make sweet memories at Shiroi Koibito Park

Spend time taking photos and enjoying snacks at the fairytale-like Shiroi Koibito Park. Some areas inside the park charge a separate admission fee.

Explore Otaru freely for 3 hours

Once in Otaru, enjoy 3 hours of free time. Your guide recommends must-see spots such as the Otaru Canal, bustling Sakaimachi Street and Otaru Sushi Street. At the start of your free time, you can also take a short walk with the guide to the former Temiya Line railway tracks, a popular photo spot. From November to January, an illumination event is held at the Otaru Canal from sunset until 10:30 PM.
