“Sapporo ski tour”
I highly recommend Kumiko and this tour. I took this tour with my 16 year old son. Neither of us had been skiing before, so it was a new experience for both of us. We had a great day, the weather was perfect and the experience was fun. Kumiko was very friendly, very patient and a very good instructor. As we were total novices this was very important. Being an instructor and a skier for many years, I am sure that the tour would also be good for more accomplished skiers. I would recommend this tour with Kumiko, especially if you have never tried skiing before.

Thank you for your kind review and spending time with this. It was my great pleasure you two could enjoy skiing for the first time. And I wish we could have more time for you to enjoy skiing in the beautiful snowy mountain, and I remembered your son's charming smile at the station tell me see me again someday , which made my day ! All the best Kumiko in Hokkaido

“Learnt many new things about Hokkaido! Kumiko san's tour was so informative and fun :)”
We first went to the Former Hokkaido Government Office Building Museum and learnt about the history of Hokkaido, then to the Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium and to the Olympic Museum. Kumiko san is a skier herself so was able to give us very customized tour in the facility in accordance with our interests. We then drove to the Fish market and had lunch at Kumiko san's favorite Ramen Restaurant. After that, we changed our original plan and chose to go to the Hokkaido Shine instead of the Sapporo Beer Museum. Everything was so flexible and she was able to accommodate to all our questions and requests on the spot. Thank you again for the wonderful tour! I am sure we will come back to you for more team offsite activities in the future. Take care!

“Wonderful Hokkaido & Sapporo food & cultural tour!”
Kumiko san was amazing! She curated a cultural day tour that dug deeper into Hokkaido and the Ainu people's history and included some wonderful discoveries. We shared a fabulously sunny Sapporo day visiting the historic village, natural history museum and sake museum then discovered a truly unique farm gate restaurant and ceramics workshop on the outskirts of Sapporo. Lots of discoveries, fun and laughs. Great company, excellent food and sake! An absolute pleasure to spend time with Kumiko san. Her hospitality, knowledge and warmth was a joy to share!

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.
