How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
With your local host leading your family through Sapporo, you can rest assured: the kids are alright! From central Ōdōri Park, where year-round festivals and seasonal bungee jumping attract families from all over Japan, to the Historical Village of Hokkaidō, an open-air museum where you could get a history lesson on a horse-drawn trolley, it’s impossible to be bored. Ride to the top of the famous Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium like Olympic athletes in 1972, get a sugar rush at the Ishiya Chocolate Factory at Shiroi Koibito Park, with chocolate exhibits that put Willy Wonka to shame, or simply browse huge, flashy shopping centers in entertainment district Susinko before slurping down Sapporo’s spectacular miso ramen at a tiny noodle bar.

Zarina our guide was most patient and professional. She took us to so many places and told us so much about the city, all the notable buildings, neighborhoods, sculptures, temples, shrines, and parks. She is full of knowledge and I don't know how she remembers all of that! She took us to this amazing curry soup noodle place and it was to die for. She was so kind. We had a most memorable day! Highly recommend it!

Had a wonderful time with Zarina walking around Sapporo. She had wonderful knowledge of the area and we learned so much about the culture there and how different it was from the rest of Japan! I absolutely loved the city and would definitely go back. The local beer, sake, ramen, and fried chicken we got to taste helped.
