網走発着冬定期観光バス 流氷砕氷船おーろら号乗船+観光列車流氷物語号乗車+博物館網走監獄見学+オホーツク流氷館<2月1日~3月1日/昼食付/網走市内発>

Riding on an icebreaker depends on luck, but it's definitely enjoyable. 砕氷船に乗れるのは運しだいですが、十分楽しめます。

Reviewed by: walabm

I participated because I could tour the sightseeing spots in Abashiri. On the day of the tour, we couldn't ride the icebreaker due to strong winds, but we received shopping vouchers at a nearby roadside station, allowing us to shop leisurely. After that, we moved according to the itinerary and enjoyed sightseeing and gourmet experiences. The time we had at the Abashiri Prison was shorter than expected (about 40 minutes), so if you take your time, you might not be able to see everything (which is a downside). The view of the sea ice at Cape Notoro, our last stop, was breathtaking.

Since the sightseeing spots are far from Abashiri Station, you need to consider using buses for transportation. However, there are only about two buses per hour, which limits your freedom (it seems there are no buses to Cape Notoro). Considering this, I think this tour, which allows you to visit all the spots by bus and return to the center of Abashiri, is convenient.

網走の観光場所を巡れるということで、参加しました。
当日は強風で砕氷船に乗れませんでしたが、近くの道の駅でお買い物できる券を頂き、ゆっくりと買い物することができました。その後は、行程表通りに移動し、観光やグルメを堪能しました。網走刑務所での観光時間が思ったより短かった(40分くらいでした)ため、ゆっくり見ているとすべてを見て周れないかもしれません(そこがマイナス評価)。最後に訪れた能取岬で一面の流氷を見たときは圧巻でした。
観光する場所は、網走駅から歩くには遠いため、バスなどを使用した移動を考える必要があります。ただ、本数は1時間に2本くらいであまり自由がききません(能取岬はバスがないらしい)。そう考えれば、すべてバスで巡り、網走中心街まで戻れるこのツアーは、便利だと思います。

  • 能取岬からの海。一面流氷です。

  • 流氷館で食べたソフトクリーム。塩キャラメル味でおいしい。

ワカサギ釣り体験 カリスマガイドと少人数で楽しむ!<12~3月/半日/ガイド・送迎付/札幌発>

A hospitality-filled experiential tour. ホスピタリティ溢れる体験型ツアー

Reviewed by: 社会人旅人

I participated in a experience of catching wakasagi (Japanese pond smelt) starting from Sapporo. The words about enjoying it with a charismatic guide and a small group are certainly true. You can experience wakasagi fishing in a warm vinyl house with a stove set up. The guide is full of hospitality, helping by scattering bait, changing bait, and checking the depth for wakasagi to ensure you catch them quickly. It can be quite challenging to catch them, but once you start, you can catch them one after another. Whether you catch them or not is a matter of luck. You can also experience drilling holes in the ice, and even if you don't catch anything, the wakasagi tempura served is well-seasoned, perfectly fried, and delicious. I highly recommend this tour.

札幌発でワカサギ釣りを体験できるということで参加。カリスマガイドと少人数で楽しめるの言葉に間違いない。ストーブ設置の暖かいビニールハウスでワカサギ釣りを体験できます。ガイドの方は非常におもてなし精神にあふれ、はやく釣れるよう撒き餌をしたり、餌を変えたり、ワカサギの深さ探ったりとしてくれます。釣るのはなかなか難しいですが、釣れ始めるとどんどん釣れる。釣れるかどうか時の運。氷の穴掘り体験もできますし、釣れなくても、ふるまわれるワカサギの天ぷらは塩が効いてて、揚げ方も抜群で美味しい。非常におすすめのツアーです。

【1日1組限定】スノーシューピクニック ふかふかの雪の森へ大冒険!(3歳から参加OK)<12~3月/富良野エリアから送迎付き/富良野市>

Wrapped in tranquility. 静けさに包まれて

Reviewed by: K•S

Since each tour accommodates only one group, you won't have to worry about interacting with unfamiliar people, allowing you to have plenty of conversations with the instructor. During the tour, you can feel the presence of animals living in the forest through snow tracks, scratch marks on trees, droppings, and remnants of their meals, with the instructor explaining each detail. You can lie on the snow, taste tree sap, and truly connect with nature. In the forest, apart from the sound of flowing water and birds chirping, the only noise is the crunch of snow beneath your feet, creating a wonderfully soothing silence. Especially for those who usually live in urban areas, this is an indescribably wonderful natural experience. They also provide transportation from Furano Station and hotels, making it accessible even without a car. You'll definitely find yourself wanting to live in Hokkaido. Highly recommended!

1ツアーにつき1団体なので、はじめましての方々と気を遣いながら同行するということもなく、インストラクターさんとたくさん話すことができます。ツアーでは、雪上の足跡、樹木に残る引っ掻き傷、フンや食べ跡など、森に生きる動物たちの息吹を感じることができ、インストラクターさんがひとつひとつ解説してくれます。雪の上に寝てみたり、樹液を舐めてみたり、自然を肌で感じることができます。森の中には、水が流れる音や鳥の鳴く声以外は、自分たちが雪を歩くザクザクとした音が響くだけで、なんとも心地よい静寂を体感できます。特に普段は都会暮らしをしている人にとっては、なんとも言えない素敵な自然体験ができます。富良野駅やホテルなどからの送迎もしてもらえるので、車がなくても参加できるのも有難いです。きっと北海道に住みたくなること間違いなし。とてもオススメです。

支笏湖アイスウォーク|10年以上“日本一クラス”の透明度を誇る神秘の湖で氷上体験! <午前・午後/1~3月/支笏湖発着>by オーシャンデイズ

It was a warm winter, so the appearance was a bit disappointing, but it was a healing experience listening to the sounds of the ice. 暖冬だったので、見た目はちょっと残念な感じですが、氷の奏でる音に癒された体験でした。

Reviewed by: こぎむ

I signed up for this experience because I thought, "This is something you can't do often!" since you can play on the ice in a lake in mid-winter. However, I was worried about whether the ice would be solid due to this year's record warm winter, so I directly inquired before signing up, and they responded quickly and very kindly. They assured me that the ice was fine, so I was able to sign up with peace of mind.

The actual time spent playing on the ice was about 30 minutes, including preparation and wrap-up. Following the instructions, I applied a heat pack to my toes and wore a dry suit, which made it completely comfortable (though it was also a day with no wind, which they called "perfect for ice walking").

Usually, I would expect to take photos with a Nordic atmosphere amidst a snowy landscape while playing on the ice, but this time there was almost no snow, resulting in images set against a rather bleak winter scenery, which was disappointing.

However, I was satisfied with the experience of hearing the sound of the ice cracking as I took my first step and the chime-like sounds of broken ice colliding in the water, all while floating thanks to the buoyancy of the dry suit, gazing up at the blue sky. The staff were all friendly, and my middle and high school sons, who are at a difficult age, seemed to enjoy themselves without hesitation. Thank you very much.

 真冬の湖で氷遊びが出来ると言う事で、「これはなかなか出来ない体験!」と申し込みました。
 しかしながら、今年の記録的な暖冬で氷が張っているのか心配で申し込み前に直接問い合わせをしたところ、迅速かつとても親切に対応して頂きました。
氷は問題ないとの事で、安心して申し込むことが出来ました。
 体験は準備から終わりまでの時間で実際氷遊びをしているのは30分程度です。ご案内の通りにホカロンをつま先に張ってドライスーツを着た事もあり、全く寒くなかったです。(この日は風もない「アイスウォーク日和」とお墨付きを頂いた日だったからと言うのもありますが。)
 例年通りならば、雪景色の中での氷遊びでちょっと北欧の様な雰囲気の写真が撮れたかと思いますが、今回は雪がほぼなくて、殺風景な冬景色の中での画像となってしまったのは残念でした。
 でも、自分が踏み出した一歩から氷が割れていく音や、水の中で割れた氷同士がぶつかって奏でる風鈴の様な音を聞きながら、ドライスーツのお陰で(浮力が付与)ぷかっと浮かびながら、青空を仰ぐ癒しの時間を体験出来て、満足でした。
 スタッフの方々は皆さんフレンドリーで、難しい年齢の中・高校生男子の息子たちも臆することなく楽しんだ様です。どうもありがとうございました。

Thank you for participating in the Ice Walk. We are very happy to hear that your whole family enjoyed it. As you mentioned, the warm winter resulted in less ice formation, but the sound of the wind chimes when breaking the ice is something that can only be experienced when the ice is freshly formed and there is no snow accumulation. The way the ice forms changes the activities we can enjoy. If you have another opportunity, please come back to experience different ways to play and other activities.

この度はアイスウォークへの参加ありがとうございました。
ご家族皆様か楽しまれたことはスタッフにとってとても嬉しい限りです。
お客様もおっしゃってた通り暖冬により氷の張りが少ないことなどもございましたが、氷を割って風鈴の音色がなるのは氷が張りたてで雪も積もってない時にしか体験できなかったりと、凍り方で遊ぶ内容も変わってきます。
また機会がございましたら、また違った遊び方や他のアクティビティを体験しにきてください。

夜のスノーシューと露天風呂入浴のセットプラン 幻想的な星空と雪景色へ!<富良野エリア送迎付き/12~3月/富良野市>

Our family's first snowshoeing adventure!! 家族で初スノーシュー!!

Reviewed by: ふうた

I wanted to play in the winter with my son, and I found this plan! It was the day before, but I was able to make a reservation right away, which was great. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the stars, but the snow falling made the night snow-covered mountains very magical! Thanks to the snow, the temperature wasn't too cold, and we were able to enjoy ourselves. We warmed up our chilled bodies in the hot springs, and it became a memorable experience that my son wants to do again!

息子と冬の遊びをしたくて、見つけたのがこちらの企画でした!前日でしたが、すぐに予約も出来良かったです。残念ながら、星は見られませんでしたが、雪が降って夜の雪山がとても幻想的でした!雪のおかげで気温もあまり寒くなく楽しむ事が出来、冷えた体を温泉で温められ、息子がまた行きたいと言うほど、思い出に残る体験になりました!

I was able to experience another world. 別世界を体験できました

There was little snow, so it wasn't a snowshoe observation tour, but I was able to trek through a different world and felt refreshed. My husband, who participated with me, was thrilled to observe a Eurasian red squirrel, so I want to see one too next time. It was a tour that made me want to participate again.

雪が少なかったので、スノーシューを使っての観察ツアーにはならなかったけど、別世界をトレッキングできて、気分一新しました。一緒に参加した夫はエゾリスを観察できて、大喜びしていたので、今度はわたしも観てみたいと思います。また、参加したくなるツアーでした。

We participated in this activity during our trip to Hokkaido as a couple. They picked us up right in front of our hotel, and the staff member in charge was very attentive during the transportation. He was a wonderful person who made an effort to teach us how to fish and create a lively atmosphere! Just walking on the frozen lake was a valuable experience! Whether you catch fish or not... it's all about luck... haha. I definitely recommend this to everyone!

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Awsome hike with an even more awesome tour guide!

Reviewed by: Terry

There was a small miscommunication in the beginning where Veltra told us the wrong pickup location. After 40 minutes, we finally find out the right pick up location from our tour guide Masa and he was still waiting for us.

We headed out for a ~4km hike around Nopporo Forst Park. It took us about 2 hours and in between we stopped to have some hot coffee. Masa was extremely helpful explaining our surroundings. He was also giving us suggestions of where to eat and what to do in Sapporo. Overall the hike was a great getaway from the busy city and what made it even better is our tour guide Masa from Sapporo Active Navigation.

Second-time snowshoeing as a repeat visitor. リピーター(2回目)のスノーシュー

Reviewed by: まつもと

Two years ago, I participated in a different snowshoe tour with the same excellent company, and it was so enjoyable that I decided to repeat it.

The tour I participated in two years ago:
Ezo Owl Forest Snowshoe Tour - Enjoy Animal Observation!
<Includes pickup from Sapporo City / January to March / Sapporo City>
https://www.veltra.com/jp/japan/hokkaido/sapporo/a/126900

This time, we hiked up a small hill with snowshoes, had lunch, enjoyed a hot spring, ate soft serve ice cream, and were taken directly to New Chitose Airport.

The outside temperature was around -6°C, but I didn't feel cold at all; in fact, it was so comfortable that I was even sweating a bit.

We climbed the hill for about an hour while watching the sheep and horses at the entrance of the ranch. When we reached the top, we dug into the snow to create a table and chairs, and took a break with hot tea brewed by our guide. Along the way, the guide took photos at Instagram-worthy spots, and after the tour, I received those photos instantly via AirDrop on my iPhone (of course, for free).

The lunch was also very delicious, and the Nagunuma Onsen was quite a large bathhouse with a pleasant outdoor bath.

I'm glad I participated. If I have the opportunity to go to Sapporo again, I would like to join tours organized by this company, not just snowshoeing. I heard they also have bicycle tours in the summer, so I would love to try that if I get the chance.

氷上ワカサギ釣り体験 手ぶらでOK!釣った魚はその場でアツアツの天ぷらに<2月限定/昼食付き/札幌市内送迎付>

Fun! Delicious! 楽しい! 旨い!

Reviewed by: namihei

I participated alone in the afternoon course. Along with the other participants, there were three of us in the same tent, and I tried ice fishing for the first time. Baiting was challenging because both the hooks and bait were small. Since the fish were small, it was harder to detect bites compared to regular fishing. But that made it fun! In the end, the three of us caught about 60 fish, and we enjoyed freshly fried ice fish with salt and soy sauce.

Anyway, my feet got really cold. I think it would be good to wear multiple pairs of socks or use heated socks when changing to keep warm.

午後のコースに1名で参加しました。 他の参加者と合わせて3人で同じテントの中、ワカサギ釣りに初挑戦しました。 餌付けは針も餌も小さいので大変でした。 魚が小さいので、当たりも通常の釣りより合わせるのが難しかったです。 でも、それが楽しい! 結局、3人で60匹ほど釣り上げ、塩味・醬油味で揚げたてのワカサギを美味しくいただきました。 

とにかく足の裏が冷えます。着替えの際には、靴下の重ね履きや靴下ホッカイロ等で暖かくして行かれるといいと思います。

The snow drifting experience was so good and satisfying. I never drive on the snow track before so when I decided to try it for the first time I know I will be thrilled.

ワカサギ釣り体験 カリスマガイドと少人数で楽しむ!<12~3月/半日/ガイド・送迎付/札幌発>

It was fun! 楽しかった!

Reviewed by: めぐねこ

We were picked up at the hotel on time and departed by van. After picking up another group along the way, we arrived in about an hour from Sapporo! Inside the tent, there was a stove and it wasn't too cold since the wind couldn't get in. I had reserved rubber boots and warm clothing, but I was fine with what I wore and my snow boots (though the staff didn't offer any rentals…). Since the ice was thick, we couldn't experience drilling a hole. The staff took care of the bait and removing the caught fish. They changed the bait and helped us with various things, but we only caught one Ugui and one Wakasa. I heard that someone in the same tent caught a lot the day before! We caught four Wakasa among the three of us! The tempura was delicious too!! It was a very enjoyable first experience. I would like to go again!!

ホテルに定刻にお迎えしてもらい、バンで出発。途中でもう1組をピックアップして札幌市から1時間くらいで到着!テントの中はストーブがあるし風が入ってこないのでさほど寒くありません。長靴や防寒着など予約していましたが、自分が着込んだ分とスノーブーツで大丈夫でした(スタッフさんから貸出の声かけもありませんでしたが…)氷の厚みがあるということで穴を開ける体験はできませんでした。餌もワカサギの取り外しもスタッフさんがやってくださいます。スタッフさんも餌を変えたり色々してくださいましたがウグイとワカサギ1匹しか釣れず。前日には同じテントでも1人ですごく釣れた方がいたとのことでしたよ!3人でワカサギ4匹でした!天ぷらも美味しかったです!!はじめての経験でとても楽しかったです。また、行きたいと思いました!!

3時間もあっとゆうまで、大量にワカサギが
釣れるというわけではなかったですが
担当の方のご配慮もあり、
お話ししたり写真も撮ってくれたりと
すごく楽しい思い出になりました!(^^)
また是非北海道行った時は
リベンジしてたくさん釣りたいです!
もちろん最後の天ぷらは最高でした!
素敵な体験ありがとうございます(^^)

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Very refreshing walk in the country side

Reviewed by: James L

The 3.6km walk was very refreshing in crispy clean air inside a forest park. Hiro San made it more enjoyable by providing interesting information and small exercises along the way. He took good care of us, especially we had little experience in cold weather and zero experience with snow shoes. It was a pity we didn’t see the owl this day, but this is wildlife and one cannot expect 100% outcome. The walk itself was well worth it.

氷上ワカサギ釣り体験 手ぶらでOK!釣った魚はその場でアツアツの天ぷらに<2月限定/昼食付き/札幌市内送迎付>

It was a great experience! 良い経験になりました!

Reviewed by: 旅人A

Due to the bad weather leading up to the day, the fishing conditions were quite challenging. However, I was grateful to see that the staff were doing their best to help us catch fish. Although I only managed to catch five fish in a little over an hour, it was a great experience as I got to drill holes myself, bait the hooks, and even enjoy some tempura.

前日までの悪天候によりなかなか釣れない状況でしたが、係の人達が必死に釣らせてくれようとしているのが分かって有り難かったです。1時間あまりで5匹だけしか釣れなかったけど、自分で穴を開けたり、餌つけしたり、天ぷらも食べることができてとても良い経験になりました。

ワカサギ釣り体験 カリスマガイドと少人数で楽しむ!<12~3月/半日/ガイド・送迎付/札幌発>

When the weather is nice, the fish don't bite. (-_-;) 天気がいいと釣れない(-_-;)

Reviewed by: 草もち姫

We were picked up at the hotel and enjoyed a comfortable drive to the Shinozutsu Lake, which is created by damming a tributary of the Ishikari River in the suburbs. The inside of the tent was warm and cozy. The weather was nice and pleasant, but unfortunately, I caught nothing, while my friend managed to catch just one. Another group seemed to have caught a few more, but it seems that good weather and bright conditions often make fishing difficult.

Our guide was very considerate, using bait and even the best cheese-fed maggots (laughs), making for a rare and enjoyable experience. In the end, we had expertly fried tempura of the wakasagi, which was exquisite. It seems that even among locals in Sapporo, there aren't many who have tried wakasagi fishing. I highly recommend giving it a try!

ホテルにお迎えに来てくださって快適ドライブで郊外の篠津(しのつ)の石狩川の支流をせき止めて湖にしている篠津湖の「ワカサギ釣り」スポットに行きます。
テント内は暖かく快適です。天気も良くて気持ちがいいのですが残念なことに私はゼロ、お友達が辛うじて一匹だけ釣れました。別のグループはもう少し釣れていたようですが天気が良くて明るいと釣れないことが多いようです。
ガイドさんも気を使って下さって撒き餌をしたり、最高のチーズ食べた蛆虫(笑)まで使って下さったけど滅多にできない経験で楽しかったです。
最後に上手に揚げたワカサギの天ぷらを戴きましたが。これが絶品でした。
地元の(札幌)の知り合いでもワカサギ釣りをしたことがある人はいないようでした。是非やってみたらとお勧めします。

  • 上品な天婦羅は絶品でした

  • 天気が良くて最高!

  • 用意してくださった用具、これ以上小さな針は無いんだそうです

  • ついに最後に釣れた!

  • 他の方が釣って下さったのがあって良かった。

  • 貴重な一匹

  • あっ!かかった!瞬間。

スノーシューツアー エゾフクロウの棲む森で動物を探しに出発!野幌森林公園5時間コース 防寒4点レンタル付きプランあり<12~3月/札幌中心部送迎付>

I was able to meet a Eurasian owl! エゾフクロウに会えました!

Reviewed by: YOKO

It was my first experience with snowshoeing! At first, I thought it might be difficult to walk, but I quickly got used to it, and walking on the fluffy snow was so much fun. Thank you for sharing so many interesting stories about animals and nature. The couple who guided us were also very kind! (I’m not sure if I can mention their names, so I’ll keep it private, haha.) I definitely want to go again! Thank you for the valuable experience.

スノーシュー初体験でした!
最初は歩きづらいのかな?と思いましたがすぐに慣れて、ふわふわの雪を歩くのが楽しかったです。
おもしろい動物の話や自然について、たくさん聞かせていただきありがとうございました。
ガイドしていただいたご夫婦にとっても良くしていただきました!
(お名前を載せていいか分からないので伏せますね笑)
また絶対行きたいです!貴重な体験をありがとうございました。

Half Day Snowshoe Walk and Ezo Owl Watching Tour from Sapporo

Fun half-day trip!

Reviewed by: Sivadorai S

Hiro- san was a wonderful guide, from the moment he picked us up from our hotel. He brought us on a scenic snowshoe walk around Nopporo Forest Park, where we spotted an Ezo owl and several animal tracks and a squirrel too. Keeping it fun with some stops for photos, and hot coffee on a table made of snow, we definitely had no regrets taking up this trip!

Great little hike

This tour was great. We had missed in the description that this was a japanese speaking tour....but alas our guide spoke enough english (shame on us for knowing very little japanese) to get us by! It was a nice experience and we came away with some great pictures!

ワカサギ釣り体験 カリスマガイドと少人数で楽しむ!<12~3月/半日/ガイド・送迎付/札幌発>

It's disappointing that we didn't catch much... あまり釣れなくて残念。。。

Reviewed by: まうもっと

The fishing facility is a small vinyl house that can accommodate about 4 to 6 people. There is a small portable stove, but since you sit still while fishing, it can get quite cold. I recommend using foot warmers if you feel chilly. The fishing gear consists of a handmade rod and sabiki baited with worms. After about two hours of fishing, we caught 9 fish among four people. The wakasagi are about 6 centimeters long and look like larger medaka, which is quite cute. The guide mentioned that the fish weren't biting well today, and I was disappointed because we didn't catch many. However, the guide caught several, so there must be some tricks to it. The wakasagi we caught were made into tempura, and it was very delicious. It may be obvious, but you can only eat what you catch, so if you don't catch anything, it won't be fun at all. If I were the guide, I would want to catch some in advance and keep them alive so that those who don't catch any could still enjoy about five fish.

I received an email about a change in the pickup time a day before, but I didn't check my emails during the trip, so I only found out after returning and ended up making you wait for 10 minutes. I apologize for that.

釣りの施設は4~6人ほど入れる小さなビニールハウス。小さな簡易ストーブが1つありますがじっと釣りをするのでなかなか寒いです。冷える方は靴用のカイロをおすすめします。道具は手作り感満載の竿に餌に虫をつけたサビキです。釣果は約2時間釣りをして4人で9匹。ワカサギって6センチ位でメダカを大きくしたやつって感じでかわいい。ガイドさんが今日は食いつきが悪いとおっしゃってましたが釣れなさすぎてがっかりしました。でもガイドさんは何匹も釣っていたのでコツがあるんでしょうね。釣れたワカサギは天ぷらにしてくれてとてもおいしかったです。当たり前かもしれませんが釣った分しか食べられないので釣れなかったら何も面白くないです。私がガイドなら前もって釣って生かしておいて釣れない人にも5匹位は食べられるようにしてあげたいなと思いました。
1日前にピックアップ時間の変更のメールが届いていたのですが旅行中にメールのチェックをしていなかったので帰ってから知り10分お待たせしてしまい申し訳ありませんでした。

ノース・スノーランドin千歳 スノーパークで雪遊び 大人も子供も雪にまみれて遊んじゃおう!<12月30日~3月5日/新千歳空港・JR千歳駅無料送迎有/千歳市>

I was moved by the snowy landscape! 一面の雪景色に感動しました!

Reviewed by: マイク34

As residents of a warm region where snow doesn't accumulate, I wanted to show my 11-year-old son a snowy landscape and let him play in the snow, so I planned a trip to Hokkaido. After doing some research, I found North Snow Land in Chitose and decided to participate this time.

The three of us were truly moved by the vast snowy scenery, and although we were eager to experience the activities, we spent an hour enjoying ourselves by lying in the snow and having snowball fights in the free area. That alone was enough for us as residents of a warm climate, but of course, we had a blast afterward.

We were impressed by the thrill of snow rafting, and the mini snowmobiles were fun too; my son enjoyed them. We couldn't do the tube sliding due to the low snow accumulation (which was an incredible amount of snow for us), but instead, we got to try the snow zip line, which was also thrilling and enjoyable.

It was truly fun, and I would recommend it to anyone I know planning a trip to Hokkaido.

Thank you to all the staff!

 温暖で雪は積もらない県の住民なので、11歳の息子に一度は雪景色を見せてあげたい、雪でおもいっきり遊ばせてあげたいとの思いから北海道旅行を計画し、いろいろ調べてノーススノーランドイン千歳さんを見つけて今回参加させて頂きました。
 家族三人、本当に一面の雪景色に感動し、早くアクティビティを体験したらよいのにもかかわらず、一時間長、フリーエリアで雪に寝転がったり雪の掛け合いをしたりして楽しみました。
それだけで南国の住人には十分でしたが、もちろんそのあと、遊び放題で楽しみました。
 スノーラフティングの迫力に感動、ミニスノーモービルも面白く、息子も楽しんでました。
チューブ滑りは、積雪量が少ない(南国住人にはあり得ないくらいの雪の量でしたが)とのことでできませんでしたが、代わりにスノージップラインをさせて頂き、これも迫力があり面白かったです。

 本当に楽しかったので、北海道旅行に行く知人がいれば勧めたいです。

スタッフのみなさん、ありがとうございました。
