For me, it is the first time to visit Sapporo. I have no idea where to go. Ms Zarina (tour guide), she has good knowledge of Sapporo history and the places. And she asked me what I prefer. So I could enjoy scenery of Sapporo, eat curry soup, the good food of Sapporo. It was great. Thank you so much.

Our guide, Zarina was lovely and knowledgeable! We had a great time tasting yummy food and walk around the city and the beautiful park. The tour was very casual and we took it at our own comfortable pace, all the while still very fun and informative. Highly recommended!
