It was a very enjoyable trip. Our guide, Rick, was incredibly nice, enthusiastic, and attentive. He fluently explained things to the passengers in three languages—Chinese, Japanese, and English—and his explanations were quite entertaining. He even helped us take group photos and told us the best spots. The entire itinerary was well-planned, with a tight schedule that didn't waste any time, allowing us to visit all the classic attractions. The departure time was also very convenient—9 am—so we didn't have to get up early, and we could have breakfast right after returning to Sapporo. Everything went smoothly. The driver was very steady, with no sudden braking, and the ride was very comfortable. Throughout the trip, Rick frequently reminded everyone to fasten their seatbelts and be careful. When we were a few minutes late for the meeting, Rick didn't rush us like some other guides; he was very easygoing and waited for us nearby to board the bus. He's a very considerate young man. Rick took care of every passenger in the group and answered everyone's questions readily. I highly recommend this trip!
Cape Kamui was tiring but very beautiful! The blue of the blue sea is really gorgeous! But the weather was not cooperating; it drizzled all day, and then it rained heavily in Otaru in the afternoon, so we didn't get to do much. Oh well.
The itinerary was the same as the promotional materials, and the time spent at each attraction was as expected, which was sufficient. However, the tour guide on the day seemed a bit different from the experienced tour guides I had encountered before. Fortunately, the group members were very self-disciplined, which allowed the itinerary to be completed smoothly. Overall, the itinerary was rich and the price was reasonable.
Thank you for the tour guide. Besides explaining the sights, you also shared some interesting facts about Japan. The time allotted for the distillery and Shakotan Peninsula could probably be adjusted to allow more time for the orchards. It wasn't a sunny day when we arrived at the beach, so we didn't get to see the beautiful Shakotan blue sea, which is a bit of a disappointment. We'll have to make up for it next time.
