It was really fun for us and the arrangement is good in order and timely. We would pay a visit to Hokkaido using your Viator.

It is actually a Japanese-speaking tour. There is an English assistant. Their English are very limited. They have tried very hard to help the English speaking tourists. The itinerary is good, the service is good. There is no any other options because this is the only tour accept English-speaker tourist.

Furano and Blue Pond

mochamooch, Jul 2019
The tour was very good. The highlight was the Blue Pond and the flower field which was beautiful and amazing! The length of the tour was too long and going to the viewing site with the ferris wheel and visiting Furano Marche could have been omitte. This would have cut out about 2 hours and gotten us back at a better hour for dinner. Overall, we covered a lot of places which would have been difficult had we tried to do it on our own.

good tour conductor

Chayanuch_T, Jul 2018
the overall tour was well organised although arrangement at the meeting point was a bit sloppy due to many operators sharing the same reception area. the conductor was particularly commendable for her great attitude, energy and patience. her English was not perfect but she really put an effort to communicate to non-Japanese clients. lunch (onigiri) was a bit disappointing but the light dinner (chicken burger) was good. the bus could have been better equipped eg. with wifi and power sockets.

Tour to furano is amazing. Bus ride was...
