“HAKODATE mit Yukari: super Erlebnis”
Wir hatten eine wunderschöne, unterhaltsame und super erklärte Tour mit Yukari. Sie ist lustig, sehr sympathisch und voll auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Jederzeit wieder.

Dear Susi, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It means a lot to me, especially when you’re busy traveling. The breakfast we had together at the Morning Market was extra delicious! And the photo we took together is a treasure to me. Thank you so much again. I hope to welcome you back to Hakodate someday! Warm wishes, Bobby

“One of the best tours ever!!”
Bobby was an incredible guide. She answered all of our questions, took us to very interesting places, and has a great sense of humor. She has a great personality that makes a tour as long as ours very enjoyable. Thanks to Bobby for a GREAT DAY! If looking for a tour in Hakodate choose Bobby.

Dear Gigi and everyone, Thank you for choosing me and for giving me such a wonderful day! Our full-day walking tour was quite a workout, but the time flew by so quickly with all of you! Getting to know your warm and lovely personalities made it such a special day for me, too. The gelato we shared tasted extra delicious! And hearing so many “wows” throughout the day made me genuinely happy as your guide. I hope the rest of your journey is filled with even more wonderful experiences and lots of “wows”! Your friend, Bobby

“Excellent tour to complete our Circle of Japan”
Tomohiko met us at the port as he has during our two previous tours that he excellently guided. We enjoyed many aspects of Hakodate. The fish market and wonderful melons that Hakodate is known to produce was very busy with locals enjoying a nice day. Of course a trip up to Mt. Hakodate can't be missed and it provided a spectacular view of the city and our ship below. We visited a museum where vintage kimonos where displayed which shows the skill and unique hand stitching. Tomo has been a exceptional guide and would recommend him for future tours if visiting Hakodate or Aomori.
