Top Hokkaido Volunteer Tours

This tour offers the perfect balance of Kushiro’s highlights in just one day. Unlike standard city tours, you will explore the vast Kushiro Marsh from two different observatories, experiencing its diverse landscapes and wildlife. The 90-minute walk to the Satellite Observatory allows for an immersive encounter with nature, with the possibility of spotting the graceful Japanese red-crowned cranes in their natural habitat. Adding to this, Washo Market introduces you to local food culture, while Fisherman’s Wharf MOO provides a chance to taste regional dishes and shop for souvenirs. The tour ends with a short stop at Nusamai Bridge, a beloved landmark especially known for its sunsets. By blending nature, cuisine, and local life, this experience gives you a deeper connection to Kushiro than a typical time.

From Sapporo, journey into the heart of Shikotsu-Toya National Park, where Lake Toya shimmers with floating islands and Mt. Yotei rises in the distance. At Sairo Observatory, take in breathtaking panoramas before standing at the foot of Showa Shinzan, a mountain born in 1943. Ride the Mt. Usu Ropeway to the summit and feel the vast beauty of Hokkaido unfold, with Lake Toya and the Pacific Ocean stretching far beyond. If you prefer, arrangements can also be made to start the tour from Muroran Port.
