Our guide was very engaging and insightful, showing us a variety of places to get delicious foods. Shiunn was very nice and easy to talk to, making my family feel comfortable and allowing us to learn a lot about Hokkaido/Sapporo. 10/10 guide.

Had a great time - I’d been to Sapporo before but this was an excellent reintroduction to a few spots off the beaten track.
