The tour guide was very efficient. Although the time spent at each attraction was short, it was really cold, and we couldn't stay outside for too long. After taking some photos and walking around for a bit, we really wanted to get back on the bus. Every spot was beautiful.
This was my first time participating in a KKday day tour, and I was very satisfied with the overall experience. Before departure, the staff added me to a group chat and clearly explained the pre-trip preparations, which made me feel very reassured. On the day of the tour, we met at the platform to register and board the bus; the process was clear and smooth. Our tour guide, "Rou Rou," was very friendly throughout the trip, providing updates on road conditions and thoughtfully explaining that if heavy snow caused highway closures, the itinerary might be adjusted accordingly, allowing passengers to understand in advance and cooperate with peace of mind. The driver's driving skills were very stable, prioritizing safety while driving on snow. The speed was not fast, but the ride was very smooth, which made me feel very safe. After all, safety is paramount when driving on snow, and I could feel the driver's professionalism and attentiveness. Furthermore, the tour guide could communicate in Chinese, Japanese, and English, demonstrating excellent professionalism and catering to the needs of passengers of different nationalities. I am very grateful to the tour guide and driver for their dedication and hard work, which made our trip safe and enjoyable.
On our last day in Japan, we went to the zoo and realized that two hours wasn't enough! 😂 But Xiaoyu had told us to buy meal tickets beforehand, saving us from the incredibly long queues for food later, although the queues for food pickup were also incredibly long. I really enjoyed Xiaoyu's explanations of Hokkaido, the origins and history of the attractions, etc., on the bus. It was very lively and interesting, not like a history lesson that made me want to sleep. The sake at Blue Pond was delicious! Better than ice cream! 😂 The blue part of the ice cream was similar to Calpis, a bit sour, which I thought was quite good, but the white part didn't have much flavor. The snow-capped mountain view on the other side of Blue Pond was even more beautiful than the pond itself! 🤩 Shirahige Falls didn't freeze, the whole place was gorgeous!! The final Fairy Terrace was really worth taking photos at… Although it was 40 minutes, 10 minutes longer than the itinerary, it took 20 minutes to walk there and back, and there were so many people, so you really had to hurry and take photos before leaving. It was still very worthwhile, and luckily, the whole trip went smoothly without any major snowstorms! Nothing unexpected happened, and we even saw penguins strolling around and entered the Fairy Terrace – so lucky! Most importantly, Xiao Yu's guided tour was fantastic, making the trip anything but a boring, mechanical experience. 👍👍👏👏
