“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!

“A wonderful guide for Hokkaido ”
We had a wonderful time with Kumiko for two days. She showed us around in Sapporo for one day and in Otaru for another day. We not only enjoyed her knowledge about both cities and Hokkaido, but also the conversation and her energetic and joyful personality. She hikes and skies too and can guide you from cities to the mountains in four seasons!
