Sapporo, Otaru, Hakodate, Lake Toyo and Noboribetsu


Springtime in Hokkaido begins in early May when it awakens from the slumber of winter and color returns to the land. With it comes blue skies and the beauty of wildflowers beginning to bloom. We also cannot forget the hibernating animals as they wake up and get ready to be active again.


Everywhere you visit in Hokkaido, you can experience different attractions of the island. Japanese people are proud of their big island, where nature blends in with people's lives so well.


Our tour begins with a 4-night stay in Sapporo at The Century Royal Hotel, adjacent to the JR Sapporo Station. We follow up with a 2 night at La Vista Hakodate Bay, a 4-star property in the center of Hakodate. Our last night, Noboribetsu Grand, a charming onsen hotel that brings out the best of this famous onsen resort town.  


Besides local sightseeing in Sapporo, there is a day trip to Otaru and a free day to catch up on some of Japan’s best shopping.

There is more, much more… a fruit picking experience, Nikka Whisky, Shiroi Koibito Park, a train ride, the Hakodate Winery, Hokkaido Konbukan, the kelp museum, and an Ainu dance show at the recently opened, Upopoy National Ainu Museum and Park.


Springtime highlights include visits to Goryokaku Park, a night tour to Mt. Hakodate, a photo stop at Lake Toya, a drive along Noboribetsu Cherry Blossom Tunnel, and Noboribetsu Jigokudani (Hell Valley). 


Join us on this unique tour as we are off discovering Hokkaido’s various sceneries, activities, and food.
