“Amazing, full-experience tour ”

Reiko put in a lot of effort to help us plan an itinerary that was aligned with our interests and budget. Thanks to her, we were able to see all the sights and wildlife we wanted to see in Kushiro! She was also extremely caring and helpful, and went out of her way to ensure that we had a comfortable trip despite the cold winter.

Zhixian and his wife were both really nice and friendly guests. They might have felt cold during the tour because they are from warm country and not used to our cold whether in Kushiro, Hokkaido. But they were brave and patient for coldness. I am so happy to know they enjoyed encountering wildlife and other experiences here.

I am an American male bi-lingual (English & Japanese)tour guide based/living in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. I have lived here several decades and I very familiar with the best places to see in Sapporo and outside of Sapporo/ other areas of Hokkaido. I can take you to the standard/well known sightseeing spots as well as "off the beaten path spots" that many overseas guests are unaware of. My tours are fun, on schedule, informative and transportation-wise very timely and smooth. Less time commuting and more time at location enjoying each point of interest. I have many years experience guiding tours in Sapporo and out to other areas of Hokkaido as well. Most of my tours are 1 day tours usually starting at 8 or 9a.m. and concluding at 6p.m. I basically use public transportation(buses, JR trains, and subways). I do own my own personal car and for guided tours with only 1 guest or small groups 2-3 guests, my private car is available for use. Meet up locations is usually at Sapporo Station in the morning but I can arrrange to meet you in the lobby of your hotel if requested. I look forward to guiding you here in Sapporo and throughout Hokkaido. Tour guide Scott. Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
