In addition to the Snow Festival, I was hoping to take my son to Asahiyama Zoo, so I looked for a bus tour departing from Sapporo. It had been a while since I took a bus tour, but the kind and friendly bus guide and driver offered warm words, and the guide's personality was wonderful. Listening to their stories not only helped me learn about tourism in Hokkaido but was also enjoyable and informative. I highly recommend this tour and would like to use it again.
雪まつりの他、旭山動物園に息子を連れていけたらと思い、札幌発のバスツアーを探しました。
バスツアーは久しぶりでしたが、親切で優しいバスガイドさんと運転手の方にあたたかい言葉をかけていただきましたし、ガイドさんのお人柄が素晴らしく、お話を聞いていても北海道の観光勉強になるだけではなく、楽しく、ためになること、たくさん教えていただきました。
とてもおすすめのツアーです。また利用したいと思います。

It's been 20 years since I visited Hokkaido in winter. Originally, I planned to participate in an event, but since I happened to get a ticket for the last flight the next day, I decided to include a bus tour as well. A tour where I don't have to drive is relaxing, and I can enjoy unlimited delicious beer! I thought it would have been even better if they had offered beer during lunch, but overall, I was satisfied.
The travel time was quicker than I expected, and I was able to stop by the Ice Festival and Bear Ranch, which weren't on the itinerary, making it a fun experience. If you're looking for a light sightseeing option, this seems more than sufficient.
冬の北海道は20年ぶり。本来はイベント参加が目的でしたがその翌日に偶々取れた航空券が最終便だったこともあり、それならバスツアーを入れ込もうと思い立ちました。自分が運転しないツアーは気が楽で美味しいビールも飲み放題!昼食時にビールの斡旋してくれたらもっと良かったなあ、などとも思いましたが概ね満足です。
移動時間が思ったよりも早く、予定にはなかった氷濤やクマ牧場にも寄ることができて楽しく過ごせました。さらりと観光するならこれで充分に思えます。

I boarded the bus from the Prince Hotel. It seemed like the Prince Hotel was the last stop, so I thought it would be better to go to the bus terminal to get a good seat. I didn't have any particular preferences, so I was satisfied.
The bus was almost full, but I didn't have to share a seat. Most of the passengers were foreigners, and it seemed they didn't understand the bus guide's announcements, which provided a good opportunity for conversation.
The bus guide was very good; her stories were interesting, and she gave us advice on souvenirs. The pork bowl for lunch was warm and delicious.
I wanted to see the red-crowned cranes, but I was scared to drive, so I took the bus, and it was great that I had plenty of time for the last JAL flight.
It was fun to travel efficiently. Next time, I thought it might be nice to book a hotel by Lake Akan.
プリンスホテルから乗車しました。プリンスホテルは最後のようで、バスターミナルに行った方が良い席は取れると思いました。私は特に希望がなかったので満足でした。
バスはほぼ満席でしたが、相席になることもありませんでした。ほぼ外国人で、バスガイドさんの案内を理解してなかったようで、それがしゃべるきっかけになって、よかったです。
バスガイドさんがとても良くて、お話は面白いし、お土産のアドバイスをいただいたりしました。お昼のお弁当の豚丼も暖かくておいしかったです。
丹頂鶴を見たかったのですが、車を運転するのが怖くてバスにしましたが、最終のJAL便にも余裕でよかったです。
効率よくまわれて楽しかったです。次回は阿寒湖にホテルを取るのもいいかなと思いました。

Although there was a brief period of light snow, we were generally blessed with good weather and there was hardly any traffic. As a result, we were able to enjoy watching the adorable animals for a full three and a half hours, making it a satisfying day tour.
We successfully captured on video the highlights we were looking forward to: (1) the penguin walk, (2) the polar bear feeding time, and (3) the seal going through the pipe.
Thank you to the driver for your safe driving. And thank you to the guide for the enjoyable conversation along the way.

The tour was mostly for Chinese people, with the guide's explanations primarily in Chinese and only about a quarter in Japanese. It was stated that we would have two hours at Asahiyama Zoo, but it seemed like the driver's time was limited, and we could only spend an hour and a half there. I don't think it was worth the price. Everything else felt rushed, and it felt more like a drive than sightseeing.
The buffet felt like school lunch. I don't think I will use this service again.
日本人は1/4でほぼ中国人のツアーで、添乗員さんの説明も中国語ばかりで日本語はぜんたいよ1/4です。
2時間旭山動物園と書いてありましたが、運転手さんの時間がオーバーしちゃいけないみたいな説明をしつつ、1時間半しか見れないし、値段相応ではなかったと思います。

I have been using Beltora overseas for a while, and I chose them again for my trip to Hokkaido without hesitation. It's much cheaper and easier than renting a car or taking the train!
On the day before the 2024 Sapporo Snow Festival, there was an unprecedented heavy snowfall, and many flights were canceled, which made me anxious. It seems that there were cancellations due to the expressway being closed for two consecutive days.
Fortunately, I was able to enjoy my trip as I had a reservation that was fully booked! On the same day, you can check in at the regular bus reception desk inside Sapporo Station, and they will guide you.
Both the driver and the bus guide from Chuo Bus were wonderful and did a professional job. It truly became a great memory!
以前から海外でベルトラさんにお世話になっており、今回の北海道旅行でも迷わずチョイス。
レンタカーや電車よりも全然安く楽ですよ♪
2024年札幌雪祭り前日、例年にない大雪、欠航しまくりの航空便で不安でした。やはり2日間連続で高速道路通行止めの影響でキャンセルになったらしいです。

The guide was considerate of each passenger. The announcements regarding precautions just before arriving at each spot and the departure times were clear. I was impressed that the driver bowed every time we got on and off the bus. The timing of the tour's schedule was just right. There were several restroom breaks, which were very helpful.
One disappointing thing was that the timing of the restroom break at the Mushroom Kingdom in Otaki Town was just before lunch. There were so many delicious options like mushroom curry bread and tempura that I really wanted to try, but in the end, I had to settle for just mushroom soup.
The announcements about the tourist spots and the history of the Sapporo area could be heard in multiple languages through a recording. I was surprised at first that it wasn't the guide's voice, but since there were many foreign tourists, I thought this was the best approach. The audio information was plentiful, so it was very educational.
ガイドさんが、乗客一人一人を気遣ってくれていました。
各スポットに到着する直前の注意事項のアナウンスや出発時間のアナウンスも分かりやすかったです。
ドライバーさんも私達がバスを乗り降りする度に、会釈をしてくださり感動しました。
ツアーの内容の時間配分もちょうど良かったです。トイレ休憩も何度もあり、助かりました。
ひとつだけ残念だったのが、トイレ休憩で大滝町のキノコ王国に寄るタイミングが昼食の直前だったことです。キノコカレーパンや天ぷらなど、沢山の美味しいものが並んでいて、凄く食べたかったけど、結局、キノコ汁だけで我慢しました。
観光地や札幌近郊の歴史のアナウンスは、録音されたものを多言語で聴くことができました。はじめはガイドさんのアナウンスでないことにびっくりしましたが、外国人の観光客が多いのでこれが一番いい対応だと思いました。
音声での情報が多かったので、とても勉強になりました。

All the places we went are worth visiting, and the weather was great, so the view was breathtaking.
But I feel I need to come back again another time, as the time length for Abashiri Prison Museum and Cape Notoro was way too short. The group size is big.
It was a shame that the tour didn’t allow us to watch the sunset at Cape Notoro; instead, we were stuck on the bus during the golden hour, going back to Abashiri Station.
Besides, when it came to lunch selection, there were only two choices, and I clearly pointed out the fish set menu to the guide, as the other choice contained raw fish that I don’t eat. I don’t know how the guide could even get it wrong. Luckily, there was a very nice girl who was willing to switch with me. But it was still annoying, as the guide's reaction made me feel like I was the dumb one who couldn’t even remember what I’d ordered.

It was a tour with a diverse group of 12 members, including a Chinese family, two friends from the Philippines, and three friends from Japan, along with a Chinese driver. At first, I was anxious, but in Jozankei, I naturally became friends with the young people from the Philippines by taking photos and chatting together. I was surprised that even us older folks could make friends with foreigners. My initial anxiety disappeared. Additionally, the driver was very helpful to my friend who has difficulty walking, and my friend was very grateful. It's a pity we didn't get to ask for his name.
As for the tour content, I wish we had a bit more time in Otaru. The time spent in Jozankei Onsen during this season felt a bit long. It was somewhat difficult to fit in a hot spring bath, and the stroll felt incomplete. I hope there will be some improvements for winter plans. But overall, it was enjoyable.
中国人のご家族、フィリピンの友達2人組、我々日本人の友達3人組、中国人のドライバーさんなど合わせて12人の国際色豊かなメンバーでのツァーでした。最初は不安でしたが、定山渓ではフィリピンの若い人たちと写真を取り合ったり、おしゃべりしたりして、自然と仲良くなりました。私達年寄でも外国の方と仲良くなれるのだと、ビックリ。最初の不安も吹っ飛びました。また私の足の悪い私の友達の手助けを、ドライバーさんがとてもよくしてくださり、友達がとても感謝していました。お名前も伺わなかったのが残念でした。
ツァーの内容としては、小樽の時間がもう少し長ければと思いました。この時期の定山渓温泉での時間が少し長いのでは?時間的に温泉入浴は少し無理があり、散策も中途半端。冬の企画を少し工夫していただきたいです。でも楽しかったです。

We departed around 8:30 AM and got off at Lake Akan. We were able to see Tsurumidai, Lake Mashu, the sand area at Lake Kussharo, and Mount Io on our way to the Akan Onsen. The stay at each location was not long, around 20 to 30 minutes, so I feel it's more suited for those who want to explore efficiently rather than for those who want to take their time with photography. The pork bowl was served warm and was delicious. With a guide present, we were able to hear stories about the cranes in Tsurui Village and the caldera lake, making it more meaningful than just a regular bus ride. There were also restrooms at each stop, which was reassuring.
朝8時半位発、私たちは阿寒湖で下車。
鶴見台、摩周湖、屈斜路湖砂場、硫黄山を経てます阿寒湖温泉まで一通り見れました。一ヶ所の滞在時間は20分から30分と長くはないためカメラでじっくり撮影したい方より、効率的に周りたい人向けだと感じます。豚丼は温かい状態で出されて美味しかったです。ガイドさんがいるので鶴居村のタンチョウの話やカルデラ湖の話が聞けて単なる移動バスより有意義でした。トイレも滞在場所ごとにあり安心でした。

However, when I mistakenly went to Toyohira Valley instead of Jozankei, the driver kindly took me back, and when I dropped my smartphone during my free time and panicked, they waited for me. They were very kind. The time management was just right; I could only spend an hour in Jozankei due to the mix-up and couldn't enjoy the hot springs, but I had plenty of time to relax in Otaru. I was able to walk through Lover's Park quickly. Thank you very much, even on New Year's Eve. I had a great time.
最初は、運転手の方が中国人、周りも中国系の方ばかりでドキドキしていました。しかし、私が外国語がわからず間違えて豊平渓に行った時定山渓に引き返してくださったり、自由時間中にスマホを落として焦った時に、待ってくださったりととても親切にしていただきました。時間配分もちょうど良く、定山渓は間違えた関係で1時間しか回れず温泉には入れなかったですが、小樽は十分なほどゆっくりできました。恋人パークは見学は早歩きでしたが回れました。

I was unsure about renting a car in Hokkaido during winter (December), but asking for a sightseeing taxi turned out to be a great decision! There were roads closed due to snow, and I think we wouldn't have been able to reach our destinations on time due to our concerns about driving. The experienced driver suggested an efficient route, allowing us to enjoy a satisfying sightseeing experience within our time limit. Since we had limited time due to our next schedule, we were introduced to "Takamikan" to see the beautiful scenery of Biei. The photos of Biei at Takamikan were stunning, and I was especially touched by the driver's desire to show us the scenery of Biei that we couldn't see! Thank you very much. I apologize for the inconvenience caused by leaving something behind, but I appreciate your kind assistance. I would like to request the same driver again.
*By reserving the sightseeing taxi in advance, we were able to plan our itinerary with peace of mind. It was also great that we could make reservations in hourly increments.

Initially, I planned to travel to Kushiro for three nights and four days in August. However, due to my mother's health issues and an extended hospital stay, I had to cancel the trip and give up on this season. But after my mother regained her strength after more than three weeks in the hospital, I felt motivated to go to Hokkaido, even if it meant shortening the trip, and decided to go for two nights and three days at the end of September. Since I made the decision just before the trip, I didn't have time to plan activities for the second day, so I ended up participating in a tour with Veltra. I had a good experience with them when I visited Melbourne, Australia, so I joined again this time.
I've been to Sapporo a few times for work, but it was always a quick trip, so I couldn't do much sightseeing. I hadn't prepared geographically in advance, but by participating in this tour, I realized for the first time that Furano and Biei are relatively close. At Shikisai no Oka, I was able to experience the vast land, and the blue pond was a mystical blue that really lifted my spirits after a long time. However, the weather was unstable, and even my self-proclaimed sunny disposition couldn't keep the sun shining.
Aside from the weather, it was a satisfying tour. Above all, Hokkaido was truly vast. Thank you very much.
最初は、8月に3泊4日の予定で釧路に旅行行くつもりでした。しかし、母親の体調不良で入院期間が長引いたので旅行をキャンセルして今シーズンは諦めておりました。でも、3週間以上入院した母親もなんとか元気を取り戻してくれたので、期間を短縮してでも北海道に行こうという気持ちになり、9月の末に2泊3日の予定で行くことにしました。でも行こうと決断したのが旅行寸前だったので2日目の行動を計画する時間がなく、結局veltraさんのツアーに参加させていただくことにしました。オーストラリアのメルボルンに行ったときにお世話になったので今回もそのご縁で参加したものです。
札幌は、仕事で数回来たことがありますが、とんぼ返りだったので殆ど観光はできませんでした。事前に地理の予習ができてなかったのですが、本ツアーに参加して初めて、割と近くに富良野や美瑛があることを実感しました。また、四季彩の丘では、広々とした大地を体感でき、青い池も神秘的なブルーで久しぶりに気分が上がりました。ただ、お天気が安定していなくて、晴れ男を自称している自分の力でも晴れを継続できませんでした。
お天気を除けば、満足できたツアーでした。何より北海道はほんとに広かったですね。有難うございました。

I enjoyed the magnificent nature with the snow-covered mountains in the background. The food was delicious, and thanks to the driver's safe driving and the guide's professional explanations and attentiveness, I was able to relax and have a great time. I would like to experience this again in another season.
雪化粧の山々をバックに雄大な大自然を満喫しました。食事も美味しく、運転手さんの安全な運転、ガイドさんのプロの説明と気遣いもあり、ゆったりとした気分で楽しめました。また他の季節に利用してみたいです。

On the day of the trip, it snowed and turned into a cold day. Since I wasn't used to driving on snowy roads, I chose a bus tour instead of renting a car. During the journey, I listened to an audio guide that explained the sightseeing spots and information about Hokkaido, and the guide also shared various stories, so I never felt bored. The lunch was delicious as well. Before lunch, I stopped at a drive-in and bought mushroom soup and mushroom rice balls, both of which were tasty and I highly recommend them. On the way back from Lake Toya, the guide pointed out that "a red fox is walking in the snow," and I was able to see it. There was also a garbage collection before getting off the bus. Thanks to the friendly and cheerful bus guide and driver, I had a great day.
当日は、雪が降って寒い1日になりました。雪道に慣れていないので、レンタカーというわけにはいかす、バスツアーを選びました。道中は、イヤホンガイドで、観光地や北海道についての説明を聞きながら、ガイドさんも色々と話してくれて、退屈する事なく過ごせました。昼食も美味しかったです。ランチ前に寄ったドライブインで、きのこ汁ときのこのおにぎりを買いましたが、どちらも美味しく、オススメです。洞爺湖からの帰路の途中で、ガイドさんが「キタキツネが雪の中を歩いている」と教えてくれ、見ることができました。バスの降車前にゴミの回収もありました。親切で明るいバスガイドさん、運転手さんで、いい1日が過ごせました。

I stayed at a hotel by the bay in Hakodate and wanted to visit Goryokaku before heading to the airport, but I was unsure if I could manage to take the streetcar, walk around for sightseeing, and then catch a good bus to the airport afterward...! I was quite confused while planning, so I made a reservation for a night view taxi as well.
Since I had already checked out of the hotel, I was grateful that I could change my reservation to Hakodate Station. I apologize for wandering around when we met.
The view of the snowy landscape from Goryokaku Tower left a much stronger impression on me than I had expected. I'm really glad I was able to visit during this season. The view from Mount Hakodate was also beautiful with the sun peeking through the clouds.
If I were traveling alone and walking, I probably wouldn't have gone unless I had a strong attachment to the place, so this became a wonderful memory.
Also, I appreciated that the kind driver suggested we stop by the Trappistine Monastery near the airport, which caters to tourists. I realized that having an explanation about the Hakodate Racecourse on the shuttle bus made a huge difference compared to not having one.
Next time I go to Hakodate, I would like to request the Donan Hire (Smile Taxi) again! Thank you very much for everything in the cold weather.
函館のベイサイドにあるホテルに宿泊し、空港に行くまでに五稜郭にも行きたいけど市電に乗って歩いて観光してからその後に良い時間の空港行きのバスにうまいこと乗れるかどうか…!
と、計画中にとても迷っていたので、夜景タクシーと併せて一緒に予約しました。
ホテルはチェックアウトしていたので、函館駅に変更して予約出来たのでありがたいです。落ち合う時にウロウロしちゃっててすみませんでした。
五稜郭タワーから雪景色を眺められたのが、自分の予想以上に凄く印象に残りました。改めてこの季節に行けて良かったです。
函館山も雲の隙間から太陽が出ていて綺麗でした。
一人旅で歩きだったら、よほどの思い入れがないと私の場合なかなか足が向かなかったかと思いますので、大変良い思い出になりました。
また、空港近くにあるトラピスチヌも寄っていただけて、観光客に寄り添った提案をしてくださる優しい運転手さんだなぁと思いました。
函館競馬場も行きのシャトルバスだと見落としてたので説明があるのとないのだと全然違うなぁと思いました。
また函館に行く時は、道南ハイヤー(スマイルタクシー)さんにお願いしたいと思います!
寒い中たくさんありがとうございました。
Thank you very much for your ride.
Due to unpredictable winter weather in Hokkaido, heavy traffic is expected. Using a flexible taxi service can help us utilize side roads to keep to the scheduled time.
I will inform the staff member in charge. Thank you for your communication.
ご乗車いただきまして誠にありがとうございます。
北海道では冬の天候不順により大渋滞が予想されます、小回りの利くタクシーでの送迎はわき道を利用して予定時刻に間に合わせることができます。
担当乗務員に伝えておきます、ご連絡ありがとうございます。

It started with light rain, and there were moments when it was sunny along the way, but when I got on the cable car, I was disappointed because I couldn't see anything in the clouds! I would like to participate again when the weather is nice. Thank you very much.
小雨程度でスタートして、途中晴れた時もありましたが、肝心のロープウェイに乗った時、雲の中で何も見えなくて残念でした‼️また天気のよい時に参加したいと思いました。ありがとうございました。

Asahiyama Zoo was a lot of fun because I could see many animals up close. Besides the zoo, there were stops at waterfalls and souvenir shops, making it a very worthwhile tour!
旭山動物園は多くの動物をまじかで見ることができとても楽しかった。
動物園以外に滝や土産屋の立ち寄りもあってとてもお得なツアーでした!
