Omiyage is a gift or souvenir you give to friends, coworkers, and family after returning home from a trip. Omiyage is so much more than just an edible souvenir. Here in Hawaii, bringing back omiyage from Japan is almost a tradition.


Sapporo is one of Japan's most cosmopolitan cities. Its wide streets and tree lined boulevards give the city an almost European feel. Coffee shops and cafes proliferate throughout the city and the center is packed with a fantastic range of shops, restaurants, and bars. After a day of exploring the city you can get your energy back over a hot meal and the delicious liquid gold, Sapporo beer.


There is more yet, as we venture to Asahikawa, Hokkaido 2nd largest city. On the way, an all-important stop at Sunagawa Highway Oasis. It is truly a shopping oasis, everything Hokkaido is here under one roof and duty free!


There is also a visit to Ueno Farm, an English-style garden with a wide variety of perennial plants that change according to the season, lunch at Asahikawa Ramen Village and a sake brewery visit. 


On the last day, off to Otaru, one of Hokkaido’s most popular tourist destination for Japanese visitors. It is a romantic port town steeped in a rich history that dates to its glory days as a major herring center. Lastly, Shiroi Koibito Park, a theme park by Ishiya, a local chocolate company.
