Hokkaido's Winter Festival Tour 2021-#2

February 04^th - 12^th , 2021 escorted from Honolulu

From: $3,495 per person double or triple occupancy; $4,095 single occupancy

For seven days, every February Sapporo is turned into a winter dreamland of crystal-like ice and white snow.

The Sapporo Snow Festival, one of Japan’s largest winter events attracts nearly two million visitors who come to see the many snow and ice sculptures along Odori Park and the main street in Susukino. They include an array of intricate ice carvings as well as massive snow sculptures that are bigger than some of the city buildings.

On this Hokkaido Winter Festivals Tour #2, we welcome in the 72^nd Sapporo Snow Festival, but this is only the beginning as we will be visiting a total of 6 sites. In additional to the Sapporo Snow Festival, we have the Susukino Ice Sculptures, Sairinka Light Up, Sounkyo Ice Light Up Festival, Asahikawa Snow Festival and new addition, the ice jewelry spectacle at Otsu Beach.   

And yet there is more, much more, 3 onsen stays, a visit to the historic harbor city of Otaru, 2 sake brewery visits, Asahikakwa Zoo to witness the Penguin Walk, Akan International Crane Center, Abashiri Icebreaker cruise, and the popular Hokkaido Ice Pavilion.

For shopping, there’s Sunagawa Highway Oasis for the very best omiyage shopping under one roof, Sapporo’s Nijo Fish Market and Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade, a full free day in Sapporo. If this wasn’t enough, how about we begin with 3 nights at Sapporo’s finest hotel, Century Royal Hotel Sapporo.
