Explore 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 + Asahiyama Zoo + Ningle Terrace + Shirogane Blue Pond (Aoiike) 1-day tour|Group of 9–13 people available
Guest User2025-12-13
This trip was fantastic. First, our tour guide, Xiaoyu, was incredibly patient, helping every tourist who needed assistance. Throughout the trip, she tirelessly shared many interesting local history and cultural stories, which I, as a tourist, listened to attentively and found very helpful and informative. She also patiently guided us through the meeting points and ensured safety, providing excellent service. Second, the driver's skills were superb. Despite the challenging driving conditions in the icy and snowy conditions, he still managed to get everyone to our destination safely and on time. Thank you both for your hard work; the entire trip was excellent, and I would definitely choose Xiaoyu again next time.
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: 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
Reviews: 1-day tour to Hokkaido Forest Elf Terrace + Asahiyama Zoo + Shirahige Waterfall + Shirogane Blue Pond (Aoiike)
Guest User2026-02-08
We encountered heavy snow in Sapporo that day, making it difficult to leave the city center. We were stuck in traffic for a long time, finally getting onto the highway around 11 am. However, I'm very grateful to the driver for his attentive and hardworking driving. We didn't get back to Odori Park until 9 pm by the time the tour ended! I'm also very grateful to our tour guide, Ms. Zhou Mingjing, for her thoughtful service, clear explanations, and well-planned itinerary. We saw everything we wanted to see! 😆 It was truly an unforgettable and wonderful memory! 😆

We were staying in in Asahikawa and our tour guide Rii was wonderful in facilitating us being able to join and leave the tour . She was very helpful throughout the trip and was definitely one of the highlights in our booking.
