I was late for my lessons and she kindly rescheduled and allowed me to change the location too as we had left Rusutsu for Niseko. Weather was terrible, ski lifts was closed and we rescheduled again!! So lucky with Olivia. She sent Vee, so kind and so patient. Will definitely book with Olivia again next time.

Reviews: Hokkaido Lake Tōya + Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley + Snowmobile + Bear Ranch|Group option for 9–13 people
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: Otaru <> New Chitose Airport direct bus e-ticket
Guest User2026-03-21
The bus from Otaru to the airport takes about 90 minutes, which is very convenient and punctual. It is an option besides taking the JR train, but there are only two buses a day.
