All Reviews for Top Hokkaido Attractions

It was the best tour for travelers without a car! The guide was kind, and being able to listen to the explanations through earphones meant I could relax and even take a nap when I wanted. I'm thinking of going on the same tour again!

車が無い旅行者には最高のツアーでした！
ガイドさんも優しいし、イヤホンで説明を聞けるので何より休みたい時は寝れるし最高！
もう1回同じツアーに行こうと思ってます！

Thanks to the calm and lovely tour guide and driver’s safe driving, I was able to have a wonderful trip. I enjoyed beautiful scenery and flowers, and had the best time. Thank you very much.

落ち着いて可愛い添乗員さんとドライバーさんの安全運転で、とてもいい旅をする事ができました。美しい景色とお花、最高の時間を過ごすことが出来ました。ありがとうございました。

Just by riding the bus, we arrived at the zoo! It was so easy. The bus guide also shared stories at just the right pace, which was enjoyable. We had a 20-minute bathroom break at the service area, which was just right. However, since we arrived at the East Gate (I think the front entrance is crowded), we had to go down from the top of the hill and then climb back up, which was a bit tough.

バスに乗っているだけで、動物園に到着！
楽ちんです　バスガイドさんも適度にお話しをしてくださって楽しかった
SAでトイレ休憩は20分　ちょうどいいです
ただ、到着が東門のため（正面だと混んでいるのだと思いますが）山の上から下に降りて登ってこないといけなくてちょっと大変です

During my trip from Honshu to Sapporo, I decided to make a reservation to visit a place I hadn't planned on initially. Although the lavender at Farm Tomita and Shikisai no Oka had already been harvested, the flowers were still beautifully in bloom.

【Positive Points】
- At the lunch venue, you can order wine and other drinks for an additional fee (I heard grape juice is also available).
- While there was no lavender, other flowers were blooming, so you can still enjoy the visit if you're not solely focused on seeing lavender.

【Thoughts】
- There seemed to be a shop at the lunch venue, but for some reason, it was closed.
- Since the destinations are all popular spots, everywhere was quite crowded (there was a long wait for food).
- Most of the time was spent traveling, and gradually, the little children on the bus were getting bored.

本州から札幌まで旅行中、始め予定はしていなかったけれどやはり一度行きたいと思い立ち予約。
ファーム富田も四季彩の丘も、ラベンダーはもう刈り取られた後でしたが綺麗にお花は咲いていました。

【良かった点】
・昼食会場は別料金を払えばワインなども頼める(ぶどうジュースもあるそうです)
・ラベンダーは無いけれど、花自体は咲いているので絶対ラベンダーを見たいというわけでなければ楽しめる


【思った事】
・昼食会場に売店があるようだが、なぜか開いていなかった
・行き先が人気がある場所ばかりのため、どこも混雑が酷い(その場で食べるもの系はだいぶ並びます)
・大半が移動のため、バスの中でだんだん小さなお子様が飽きてしまっていて来ていた

It was a very helpful tour that allowed me to visit major spots by bus (and listen to historical guides through earphones) since I can't drive. However, my enjoyment was greatly diminished due to a family sitting behind me. Their young child (presumably preschool age) was very energetic, and their loud conversations and singing made the atmosphere quite noisy. Despite my request to close the curtains because the sunlight was blinding, it was ignored, making the car environment far from comfortable.

I was also irritable due to fatigue from consecutive travel days, so I acknowledge my part in that. However, since the bus was full and I couldn't change seats, it felt like a test of patience. If there were tours designed for families that encourage lively conversations and fun, as well as tours that maintain a certain level of decorum for those who want a more peaceful experience, I would definitely consider participating again if the bus environment could be more secure and comfortable.

車を運転できないのでバスで行きたいと思っていた主要箇所を回れる（かつ、イヤホンで歴史などのガイドも聞ける）とてもありがたいツアーでした。
ただ、後ろに乗ってたファミリーのお陰で楽しさは激減でした…未就学児（推定）のお子様が非常に元気で会話やお歌の声がとても大きいことに加え、日光が眩しいからカーテンを閉めて欲しいと依頼しても無視で車内環境はうるさい・眩しいで快適とは程遠かったです。
連日の旅で疲れてたのもありイライラしてしまった私も悪いですが、満席で席が変えられず車中はひたすら我慢大会でしたので、子供が楽しく会話できる賑やか歓迎のファミリー向けツアー、車内をある程度のマナーをもって過ごしたい人向けツアーなどで車内治安が守られ安心して参加できそうであればぜひ次の参加も検討したいです。

On the bus, I listened to explanations about the history and characteristics of the places we visited and passed through while wearing earphones. I learned a lot of new things!

Unfortunately, at Farm Tomita, the lavender season had ended, so it had already been harvested, but the other flowers were incredibly beautiful and enjoyable!

The Blue Pond was extremely crowded, and we got caught in a bit of traffic before the bus reached the parking lot, which delayed our arrival. However, once we got in, we were able to walk around smoothly and see everything properly. The colors were really beautiful!

Personally, I found Shikisai no Oka to be absolutely amazing, and I definitely want to come back. The views were great from everywhere! The flower fields were beautiful, and the green mountains and fields visible beyond the flower fields created a stunning landscape. Although there were many people, the area was very spacious, so it didn't feel crowded. I hope to ride the tractor and helicopter that I had to give up due to time constraints someday…

The alpaca farm on the premises is also incredibly cute, so I recommend it.

I was a bit worried that the bus tour of popular tourist spots in Hokkaido might have a lot of inbound tourists with poor manners, especially since it was during the Obon holiday. However, in reality, that wasn't the case at all; it felt like about 80% Japanese and 20% foreigners, and everyone, including the foreigners, had good manners, which was reassuring. There were hardly any people who were late for the bus meeting times at each spot (if there were, it was only about 3 minutes late), so I was glad to see that everyone was quite punctual.

バスの中では、イヤホンをつけてバスツアーで訪れる場所、通る場所の歴史や特色に関する説明を聞きました。知らないことばかりで勉強になりました〜

ファーム富田は残念ながらラベンダーの時期は終わってたので刈り取られちゃってましたが、それ以外のお花がすごく綺麗で楽しめました！

青い池は人がめちゃくちゃ多くて、バスが駐車場に着くまでにちょっと渋滞に巻き込まれて到着が遅れてしまいましたが、入ってみたら意外とすいすい歩けてちゃんと見られました。色がすごく綺麗でした〜

個人的には四季彩の丘がめちゃくちゃ良くて、また絶対来たいと思いました。どこにいても眺めが良い！花畑が綺麗なのはもちろん、花畑の向こうに見える山とか畑？の緑も含めてすごく綺麗な風景でした。人多かったですが、敷地内もすごく広々としているのでゴミゴミしてる感じはなかったです。時間の関係で諦めたトラクターもヘリコプターもいつか乗ってみたい…
敷地内にあるアルパカ牧場もめちゃくちゃかわいいのでおすすめです。

北海道の人気観光地のバスツアーって、インバウンド客がたくさんいてマナーが悪かったりするんだろうか…しかもお盆の時期だし、と若干心配でしたが、実際はそんなことはなく8割日本人2割外国人？くらいの感じで外国人の方も含めて皆さんマナー良い方ばかりで安心しました。
各訪問スポットでのバス集合時間に遅れる人もほとんどおらず(いても3分遅れくらい)ちゃんとしてる人ばかりでよかった〜と思いました。

The guide and the driver were very kind, and I was able to enjoy a fun day of sightseeing. I was worried, but the weather was nice and very beautiful. Although the general public had to wait for lunch, I was able to get in right away and the food was very delicious.

ガイドさんや運転手さんがとても親切で一日中楽しい観光が出来ました。
心配していましたが、お天気も良くてとても綺麗でした。
お昼も一般の方は待っていましたが、直ぐに入ってお食事できてとても美味しかったです。

It was a convenient tour that allowed us to easily enjoy popular spots in Furano and Biei! The guide was great with the audio guide, making it very accessible.

The cheese fondue and hamburgers at Furano Wine House were incredibly delicious, and I definitely want to go back for more. The only downside was that the souvenir shop was closed, and I couldn't purchase the wine that isn't available online, which was disappointing. However, I want to keep that as something to look forward to for my next visit!

Also, the bus in the summer was very hot, even with the air conditioning, when the sun was shining. 💦

富良野、美瑛の人気スポットを手軽に楽しめるツアーでした！ガイドも音声ガイドで手軽で申し分なかったです。
特にふらのワインハウスのチーズフォンデュ、ハンバーグは大変美味でまた食べに行きたいと思います。唯一、お土産やさんが閉まっていてオンライン販売をしていないワインを購入出来ず残念でしたがまた行く楽しみとして残しておきたいなと思います！
あと夏のバスは日が照る方はクーラーあってもとても暑かったです💦

I had a comfortable ride on the new bus, which even had USB outlets. Most importantly, the guide shared various stories throughout the journey, making it both enjoyable and educational. We received a map of the zoo, and the guide provided detailed instructions on how to navigate, so we were able to explore smoothly without getting lost. Since it was a day with fewer group visitors, we could enjoy everything at a leisurely pace, and the three-hour stay was just right. Additionally, I was very grateful for the recommendations for dinner spots in Sapporo.

新車のバスに乗せていただいて快適でした。USBのコンセントもついていました。
何よりも、ガイドさんが車中ずっと色々な話をしてくださったので、退屈もせずとても勉強になりました。
動物園のマップもいただけて、回り方なども詳しく教えてくださったので迷うことなくスムーズに回れました。
団体客が少ない日だったのでどこもゆったりと見ることが出来て、約3時間の滞在はちょうど良かったです。
また、札幌での夕食場所も教えていただけてとても助かりました。

The scent of lavender was very relaxing. There were many other flowers blooming as well, and they were very beautiful.

ラベンダーの匂いがしてとても、
リラックスできました。ラベンダー以外にもいろんな花が咲いていてとても綺麗でした。

This time, I participated in a bus tour alone. I think it would have been cheaper to go to Lake Shikotsu and Lake Toya with lunch included than to rent a car alone. There were also foreign participants, such as Chinese and Koreans, but you can plug in the earphones at the seat and listen to all the guides through them. So, it's reassuring that it supports English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. I was satisfied because I could visit the places I was interested in. I hope to go on a different tour next time.

今回は1人でバスツアーに参加しました。支笏湖洞爺湖には、1人でレンタカーを借りて行くより、昼食付きで行くとしたら安く行けたと思います。中国人や韓国人などの外国の方も参加していましたが、座席横にあるイヤホンを指す場所に差し込み、イヤホンにて全てのガイドを聴きます。なので英語、中国語、韓国語、日本語に対応しているので安心していけます。気になるところや回りたいところに行けたので満足です。また違うツアーに行けたらいいなと思います。

The driver was Japanese, and the tour guide was Chinese. About 70% of the passengers were Chinese, but everyone was well-mannered and the schedule was followed on time. The guide was also polite, and I really enjoyed it.

As for Asahiyama Zoo, entry is from the East Gate instead of the main gate, so it was the opposite of the recommended route, which may have caused a slight delay.

運転手は日本人の方で、添乗員は中国人の方でした。乗客は7割が中国人の方でしたが、皆さんマナーよく時間通りの運行でした。
ガイドも丁寧で、とても楽しめました。

旭山動物園は正門ではなく、東門からの入園になるので、推奨ルートとは逆の回り方になり、少しタイムロスがあったかと思います。

The guide's reception and explanations were very good. Also, the driving was extremely safe, so I had no worries at all. This tour was so great that I plan to visit the Furano area next year. I'm looking forward to it already.

ガイドさんの応接や説明がとても良かったです。また、超安全運転で全く不安がありませんでした。
今回のツアーがとても良かったので、来年は富良野方面の予定です。今から楽しみにしてます。

Since my trip was mainly in Sapporo and I didn't rent a car, I really wanted to visit Asahiyama Zoo, so I decided to sign up for a tour this time. I was unfamiliar with Hokkaido and worried about transfers, and since it was summer and hot, being able to take a bus from Sapporo while resting was really comfortable for my body.

I got tired from walking around the zoo, but it was great that I could just sit back and relax on the way back without any worries. I returned right on time without any delays. I look forward to joining another tour the next time I visit Hokkaido.

札幌メインの旅行だったためレンタカーしておらず、どうしても旭山動物園は行きたかったので今回ツアーに申し込むことにしました。北海道は不慣れで乗り換えが心配だったのと夏で暑かったので札幌からバスで寝ながら行けたのはすごく体が楽でした。
動物園で歩き疲れましたが帰りもなんの心配もせずに座ってるだけで帰れたのでとても良かったです。
特に遅れることもなく時間通りに戻れました。また北海道に行く際は何かのツアーでまたよろしくお願いします。

The weather was nice, the food was good, and everything from the lake to the mountains and the view from the cable car was great. I was a bit surprised by the tsunami alert, but I'm grateful that there were no changes to the tour and that I returned safely.

天気も良く、食事も良く湖も山、ロープウェイからの景色も全て良かったです。
津波アラートで少しビックリしましたが、ツァーに変更も無く無事に帰って来れた事に感謝。

I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be cloudy and we managed to proceed. Asahiyama Zoo was small and easy to explore, and it was enjoyable. I also enjoyed the Blue Pond.

心配していました天気もなんとか曇りで進みました。旭山動物園はこじんまりとして見学しやすくてたのしかったです。青い池も楽しみました。

The tour on July 19th started with cloudy weather and rain in the forecast. I thought, "This is the worst," as I got on the bus, but our tour guide, Wan, brightened my mood! He was very friendly and kind, and his talks were enjoyable. He always had a smile on his face and worked hard for us without showing any displeasure. Thanks to him, it turned out to be the best tour.

He mentioned that he loves the phrase "ichigo ichie," but I couldn't help but say, "Let's meet again!" The tour itself was a fun experience, but I was very satisfied thanks to Wan. Thank you very much!

7/19日のツアーでしたが朝から曇天で、天気予報では雨。「最悪」と思いながらバスに乗りましたが、そんな気分を晴れにしてくれたのが添乗員のワンさん！　とても気さくで優しくて、トークも楽しかったです。嫌な顔もせずいつも笑顔で、私たちのために一生懸命動いて下さいました。おかげで最高のツアーとなりました。
「一期一会」が大好きな言葉とおっしゃいましたが、私は思わず「また会いましょう！」と言ってしまいました。
ツアー自体も楽しい企画でしたが、ワンさんのおかげで大満足です。本当にありがとうございました。

It was my first bus tour, and thanks to the guide, I was able to hear many interesting stories, which made it very enjoyable! I appreciated the recommendations for souvenirs and meals, as well as learning about various things in Hokkaido. I definitely want to use this service again!

初めてのバスツアーでしたが、ガイドさんのおかげでいろんなお話が聞けてとても楽しかったです♪
おすすめのお土産や食事、北海道のいろんなことが聞けてとても良かったです。
ぜひまた利用させてもらいたいなと思いました！

The weather was bad and there was fog, so it was disappointing. Next time, I think I'll check the weather forecast and plan my schedule accordingly.

天気が悪かったし霧も掛かってたので、残念でした。次回は天気予報を見てスケジュールを立てようと思います。

It was a day blessed with good weather, allowing us to fully enjoy the great nature of Hokkaido. At the Usuzan Ropeway, we had plenty of time to explore the summit and visit the bear ranch. Thanks to the efficient guide and the friendly driver, we had a wonderful time.

天気に恵まれて北海道の大自然を満喫できた1日でした。有珠山のロープウェイでは山頂を散策してからクマ牧場を観る時間もたっぷりとありました。テキパキとしたガイドさんと感じのいい運転手さんのおかげで楽しい時間を過ごせました。

The tour guide's clear explanations and the driver's safe driving made for a wonderful trip. Thank you very much.

添乗員のわかりやすい説明、並び運転手の運転も安心できて最高の旅になりました。
ありがとうございました。

I wanted to take my time at Asahiyama Zoo, and this product made that possible.

The guide from Chuo Bus was very knowledgeable, and the content was excellent. The driver also prioritized safety, which made me feel secure.

Having only three participants on a large bus felt quite luxurious, but one of the participants disrupted the atmosphere, which was unfortunate for the guide and a bit disappointing. There's nothing we can do about that, but I enjoyed my first visit to Asahiyama Zoo despite the heat.

However, entering from the East Gate and gathering at the West Gate allows for a downhill viewing experience (climbing back up is tough), which I believe is due to parking arrangements.

旭山動物園をじっくり行きたかったので
この商品は叶ってました。

中央バスのガイドさんが大変勉強しており

ただ、東門から入り西門の集合の方が

The guide was very kind. Driving on the mountain roads was a bit scary, but I had a lot of fun experiencing various things in different places.

ガイドの方がとても優しかった。山道の運転は少し怖かったですが、色々な場所で色々な体験ができて、すごく楽しかったです。

I was able to receive useful information about tourist attractions. Although I couldn't see the lavender as it was too early in the season, I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery with a variety of blooming flowers. I also indulged in potatoes and asparagus.

観光地のポイントなど有益な情報をいただくことができました。
ラベンダーは時期が早くみれませんでしたが色とりどりの花の咲く美しい景色を
観ることができました。
ジャガイモ・アスパラガスを堪能しました。

I needed an umbrella because of the rain. The bus had audio guides available through earphones, so I wasn't bored. I enjoyed nature, including a visit to the crater from the Usuzan Ropeway. At the optional Bear Ranch, I was able to see bears of different ages and felt a connection with the bears that were around my age. Their sleeping姿 and the way they ate snacks while lying down were both amusing and brought smiles to my face. The meals, including seafood and meat, were delicious.

雨で傘が必要でした。バスの中はイヤホンを使用しての案内があり、退屈しませんでした。有珠山ロープウェイから噴火口見学できるなど自然満喫です。オプションのクマ牧場では年齢別のクマを見て自分と同じくらいの年代のクマに親近感が持てたり、寝ている姿や寝ながらおやつを食べる姿が、おかしくもあり笑顔になりました。お食事も海産物、お肉など美味しかったです。

I joined this tour because I can't drive. We were able to visit two main lakes in one day, and the time allocation was just right. The meals were also very delicious.

車を運転できないので、このツアーに参加しました
一日で二つのメインの湖に行くことができ、時間配分も
ちょうどよかったです。お食事もとてもおいしかったです

I would like to move the departure time one hour earlier and extend the stay at the location to four hours. I couldn't see everything. I want to take my time to see the polar bears and seals.

出発時刻を１時間早め、現地の滞在時間を４時間にしてほしい。全て見ることができなかった。ホッキョクグマやアザラシはゆっくり見たい。

The weather was nice, and the scenery was amazing, but it was quite hot for June, which was tough. However, the lunch at the hotel was delicious, and the view from the window was great.

天気が良くて、景色は、最高でしたが、６月にしては、暑くて大変でした。
ただ、ホテルの昼食は、おいしくて、窓からの景色もよくて良かったです。

I had only been to Hokkaido on group tours organized by travel agencies. I searched for a bus tour to visit my grandchild in Sapporo and decided to join this tour.

I was moved by the scenery at places I visited for the first time, such as Lake Shikotsu, Lake Toya, Showa Shinzan, and Mount Usu.

The journey from the ropeway to the observation deck was quite challenging for my husband and me, as we are over 70, but it was absolutely wonderful and has left a lasting impression on me. I'm really glad I participated in this tour. My grandchild in Sapporo said to come again. While I'm still healthy, I would like to join another Beltora tour.

Thank you to the driver and guide for your support!

いつも旅行会社の団体ツアーでしか北海道行ったことがありませんでした。札幌の孫に会いに行き、何かバスツアー🚌検索していてこのツアーに参加させて頂きました。
支笏湖、洞爺湖、昭和新山、有珠山初めて行くところばかりでその景色に感動しました😊
ロープウェイ🚡から降りて、展望台迄の道のりは、70過ぎの私達夫婦には大変でしたがもう素晴らしくて目に焼き付いています。このツアーに参加して本当に良かった。札幌の孫から又来てねとの事。元気な間に又ベルトラツアーに参加したいと思います。
ドライバーさんガイドさんお世話になりありがとうございました👵

The bus driver and guide were wonderful. It was my first time stepping foot in Hokkaido, and I truly thought it was a lovely travel destination. Although the schedule was a bit tight, I was glad that we could visit all the places I wanted to see. I went with the understanding that the flowers might be a bit early for the season, but I was moved by the magnificent nature of Hokkaido.

バスの運転手さんとガイドさんの対応が
素晴しかったです。
