8D6N Highlights of Hokkaido

Overview

Sapporo, Otaru, Furano and Noboribetsu on one unhurried loop — lavender season in summer, snow and onsen in winter. Best for first-timers to japan and families who want the north done properly, not rushed.

• Otaru canal and its glass and music-box workshops
• Noboribetsu Jigokudani "hell valley" and an onsen night
• Furano flower farms (summer) or Niseko snow country (winter)
• A working seafood market breakfast in Hakodate

Trip route

Day-by-day itinerary

DAY 1

Singapore — Sapporo

Gather at Changi for your flight north. On arrival in Sapporo your tour leader settles the group into the hotel, with a short orientation walk past the Odori clock tower for anyone still wide awake.

Meals on board

DAY 2

Sapporo — Otaru — Sapporo

A morning along the Otaru canal, watching glassblowers and music-box makers at work, then a tasting of the town’s famous seafood. We loop back to Sapporo for a free evening around Susukino.

Breakfast · Lunch

DAY 3

Furano & Biei flower country

The day belongs to the rolling farms of Furano and the patchwork hills of Biei — lavender and poppies in summer, a quiet white blanket in winter. Plenty of time for the photographs you came for.

Breakfast · Dinner

DAY 4

Noboribetsu onsen

We walk the steaming boardwalks of Jigokudani before checking into an onsen ryokan. Dinner is a multi-course kaiseki, and the evening is yours to soak away the travelling.

Breakfast · Dinner

DAY 5

Lake Toya — Hakodate

A caldera-lake morning at Toya, then south to the port town of Hakodate. We ride up Mount Hakodate at dusk for one of the most-loved night views in Japan.

Breakfast · Lunch

DAY 6

Hakodate morning market

Breakfast is at the bustling morning market — pick your own bowl of uni or crab. The rest of the day is free for the bayside warehouses and the old foreigners’ quarter.

Breakfast

DAY 7
