Explore the highlights beyond central Hakodate on a private 8-hour vehicle tour connecting Goryokaku, Trappistine Convent, and Onuma Quasi-National Park. Unlike tours focused only on central Hakodate, this route combines three very different sides of southern Hokkaido in one day: the star-shaped fort and modern history of Goryokaku, the peaceful European-influenced atmosphere of Trappistine Convent, and the lakes, forests, islands, and mountain scenery of Onuma. The attractions are spread across and beyond Hakodate, making private transportation particularly convenient. The official Hakodate tourism site notes that Onuma is outside the central city area, while Trappistine Convent is also located away from central Hakodate near the airport side of the city. This tour is suitable for couples, families, cruise passengers, first-time visitors, and private groups who want to explore more of southern Hokkaido without coordinating multiple trains, buses, or taxis.
