“A Spiritual visit in Sapporo ”
Our time with Yumi was very educational. Yumi met us in a very modern comfortable car. We visited the Butsugamji Temple with a sleeping gold Buddha set in a beautiful japanese garden setting. The Hill of the Buddha. Stonehenge and the Easter island Statues. A quiet serene place. Next was a visit to the Hitsujigaoka observatory where we saw sheep, the only ones on our 4 week trip. Lunch was at a delicious restaurant. Yumi spoke very good English for us and it shows she loves guiding tourists and is also a very good photographer. Thank you Yumi for a lovely day.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I truly enjoyed guiding you and your husband — you are such a lovely and kind couple. I’m also grateful for the thoughtful gifts, especially the honey hand cream! Please come and visit Hokkaido again — it would be my pleasure to guide you once more. Thank you, Yumi
