Host was very accomodating. Even though it was simple, we really enjoyed the fact that he was showing us the local things and what to buy in the stores which we would have likely overlooked if he had not pointed out.

My partner and I were fortunate enough to spend a half day in Sapporo recently with Shiunn. She was wonderful. We had a few ideas of what to see and she turned that into a delightful afternoon of sightseeing and chatting. Shiunn speaks excellent English and has great juju. Just book a tour with her, you’ll be glad you did.

Shiunn is a very friendly and funny guide who knows Sapporo and its history very well. She managed to show us the main attractions despite the heavy snow. We had a great time with her!

Shiunn wove our requests into a fabulous 4 hour tour of Sapporo highlights. She knows her city inside and out, speaks lovely English, but best of all has great juju. Don’t waste any more time wondering if you want Shiunn as your guide . . . Just book her!

Akihiro was so calm and patient dealing with the range of speeds in our group. He showed us so much in the time alloted and even took extra time to show us some key points we had missed on our previous day. He had great recommendations for food for later too.

Shuinn was wonderful. She was flexible based on the weather, listened to our asks, and built an entire day around what was important to us. We can’t thank her enough. She was so sweet!

What you’ll do

Sapporo, Japan’s resident cool kid – the one who loves beer and goes skiing every winter – is a must-see city for way too many reasons to squeeze into just four hours, but with a local host as a GPS and guidebook, you’ll easily pack the most into your time. Perhaps you’ll get a fascinating history lesson at the Historical Village of Hokkaidō, or maybe you’ll ride to the top of the famous Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium like an athlete from Sapporo’s 1972 Winter Olympics. Wind down in neon-lit entertainment district Susukino for a drink at your host’s favorite izakaya, or make your way to Horomitoge Lavender Garden – a sprawling, lavender-blanketed lookout point with sunset views that are pure perfection.
