About Tour Guide Kumiko N.

“A delightful guide from Sapporo”

Kumiko - GoWithGuide Kumiko was an outstanding guide. We discussed the places that we wanted to visit and what was possible with our two schedules. We quickly agreed on a plan. I wanted to go to two museums on the industrial heritage of Hokkaido. Kumiko had been to either and, on her own initiative, contacted both of them in advance. Because of her efforts we received a warm welcome at both museums. She facilitated communications with museum staff by translating for us. Kumiko was a delight to be with. She answered our many questions about Japanese culture and we felt like we got to know her by the end of our trip. We highly recommend Kumiko as a guide in Hokkaido!

“I wish we could have spent several days with Kumiko.”

Excellent scheduling and communication. Kumiko was at the cruise ship port waiting for us at the gate, on time and even parked close to the gate. She is friendly, charming and fun to be around. Kumiko has a wealth of information about the history of the region and local culture. She wasted no time in getting us to the ski area so we could ride the cable car to the top. We were able to visit a shrine and enjoy the view of the city. The ski area also included an museum of skiing in the area and the equipment used. Then on to a local Saki brewery for a tour and a sample. Our next stop was the railroad museum. A "must see" if you are interested in railroad history, historic steam power, and the challenges of building railroads in the terrain of northern Japan. Next stop was a local seafood restaurant where we sampled many types of fish and shellfish, both cooked and raw including the local delicacy "uni". Kumiko was able to give us a quick tour of the local fish market. She also drove to some other scenic overlook areas. Last stop was the Otaru Museum. We were back to the cruise ship with time to spare. All the time we spent with Kumiko was delightful and I wish we could have been in port longer and spent a few days with her. Thanks Kumiko!
