Konnichiwa and greetings from the land of the Rising Sun!! My name is Mitsuru and I do guided tours in pretty regions of Japan, especially around Fuji - Hakone - Izu National Park + Nagano state + Hokkaido - please see my multiple days HOKKAIDO tour! Since the pandemic, I moved to Kanagawa, next to Tokyo, but I still do tours there. Especially for those who will take my tours out of the capital. My most popular tours are road trips, so travelers can enjoy special places, not covered by conventional tours or by public transportation. I would like to encourage you to support smaller Japanese destinations outside of the big cities (out of Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka)! As a travel enthusiast, I ended up in the tourism world and I love guiding people. I lived in QLD, Australia when I was young and have been to different places inside and outside of Japan and sometimes I meet my clients in their hometowns overseas! :) PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE BOOKING ANY TOUR, as I might be in talks with others travelers for the same desired date. Japan is a long country with 47 states with different climates from Hokkaido (my favorite) in the north to subtropical Okinawa (my ancestors land) near Taiwan. I have also visited different Japanese regions with a motor home during the pandemic. I love the charming of the secondary roads / backstreets. Every region in Japan is unique and they differ a lot according to seasons. My favorites are: 1. AUTUMN (Oct-Dec); 2. SPRING (Mar-May); 3. WINTER (Dec-Feb) is the best to fully view Mt. Fuji and lastly 4. SUMMER (Jun-Aug) is the toughest due to high temperatures and humidity, Hokkaido is an exception though. Travels can change people.. I believe in a new tourism based on E's": Educational, Entertaining with respect to the Environment. I am looking forward to meeting you and show you some beautiful parts of Japan! :) PLEASE KINDLY NOTE: * Travel insurance is NOT included in any tour, please have one. * If you have any FOOD or MOBILITY restrictions pls advise me. * WALKING is well involved in the case of TOKYO (approx. 15-20K steps). THANK YOU for reading my profile, have a SAFE and HAPPY travels!

Overview of your Sapporo tour

Experience the best of Hokkaido on a carefully curated five-day journey through Japan's northern frontier. From the flower fields of Furano and the iconic Blue Pond of Biei to the historic port of Otaru, the mountain landscapes of Niseko, the volcanic wonders of Noboribetsu, and the crystal-clear waters of Lake Shikotsu, this tour combines nature, culture, history, local cuisine, and outdoor adventure. Designed for travelers seeking a deeper exploration of Hokkaido beyond the major cities, this itinerary showcases the island's diverse scenery, seasonal beauty, and unique character while maintaining a comfortable pace and flexible opportunities for optional activities. Also, as a multiple days tour and not day trips from Sapporo, we can maximize the journey saving km and time. This is a big advantage when it comes to a state that is the size of Austria.
