Tsurui Village Winter Crane Watching Tour from Kushiro
Enjoyable Tour

We had great time on this private tour. Our guide was Shu-San who came with his car to pick us from our hotel and drove us to three different observation points. He was well equipped with a monocular and binoculars. His polite attitude and enthusiasm about Tanchos made our trip a memorable experience.

I went for the crane watching tour with Mr. Shuta. It was a wonderful experience. He was well prepared and provided telescope and binoculars. He was experienced in pointing out various wildlife along the route and finding good spots to view cranes at the right timing. Thank you.

Things to Do in Kushiro/ Akan/ Mashu in 2026 – Tours & Activities | VELTRA
When winter drapes the east of Hokkaido in snow, the Akan‑Mashu National Park and the surrounding Kushiro Wetlands region transform into one of Japan’s most atmospheric winter wonderlands. If you’re deciding between Japan's winter destinations, these stand out for their tranquil wilderness, unique ecosystems, and a sense of remote, unspoiled nature — very different from crowded urban sightseeing or resort‑based ski holidays.
