Iku was a fabulous guide. Not only was she knowledgeable about all the stops on the tour but she also gave thoughtful recommendations for other activities and delicious food spots around Sapporo. I’m glad I began my time in the city with her. I feel much more confident navigating the city today. So happy with my tour! Thank you, Iku.
What a great introduction to Sapporo. Iku, our guide, was friendly and knowledgeable. We very much enjoyed learning about the establishment of Sapporo and we were surprised to learn that it was a fairly new city. We would recommend anyone who likes walking tours to join this operator’s tour
Thank you for the lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed discovering Sapporo's surprisingly recent history with Iku. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. We hope to welcome you back for more walks around Hokkaido on a future visit! Best wishes, The Ezosika Travel Team
I had a great tour with Honoko! She was bright, enthusiastic, and welcoming! She showed me the Sapporo TV tower and explained the history and layout of Sapporo. She took me to several historical sites, helped me understand the train system, and found a local Ainu crafts store for me. She was helpful in all ways and I would definitely book with her again.
Dear Debra, Thank you so much for your lovely review! Exploring Sapporo city with you was so precious time for me✨ I'm so glad I had the chance to help you get to know Sapporo a bit! I hope your friend likes the Ainu craft we select for her together;) If possible, I'd love to enjoy the snow-scape of Sapporo with you next time⛄Honoka
A great introduction to Sapporo, and a perfect way to get an overview of sites and history and to get your bearings. This tour was a perfect way to start our visit in Sapporo amidst the snow festival.
Thank you so much for your kind review! I’m really glad the tour helped you get a good overview of Sapporo and feel more comfortable exploring the city. It’s a special time to visit during the Snow Festival, so I’m happy you were able to experience it as part of your trip. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I hope you had a wonderful stay in Sapporo!
We went to the meeting place 1 hour earlier from the call time but they did not inform us of the change of meeting place.. we messaged them but replied very very late. 😞. So sad. Though iku our tour guide is nice.
I’m really sorry we left you feeling disappointed. And thank you very much for your kind words about the guide. We did send you an email the day before to inform you of the change in the meeting location, but we sincerely apologize that we were still unable to meet smoothly. On the day, we also tried calling the phone number you provided, but we couldn’t reach you. Since our communication had to go through the system, each email exchange also took extra time. We deeply apologize for causing you distress during your stay in Sapporo.
Iku-San was such a wonderful guide. She made sure we were comfortable and tailored our stops to the family. I was solo with my 4 children (ages 2-12) and she was so great with the kids too. We had a great time. The two hour tour was perfect for our attention spans and to get a nice introduction to Sapporo for first time visitors.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. It was wonderful spending time with you and your lovely children, and I truly enjoyed showing Sapporo to your family. I’m glad the two-hour walk felt comfortable and enjoyable for everyone. I hope you’ll have many more happy moments during your stay in Hokkaido.
It’s a great tour! I learned so much about the city! The guides had great restaurant recommendations. I do wish the tour were a bit longer with stops at the university and other historic areas.
Thank you very much for your kind review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the tour and found the information and restaurant recommendations helpful. Thank you as well for your suggestion about a longer tour with more stops! that’s very helpful feedback for us. Hope to welcome you again in the future!
This is a great way to get an overview of the founding of the city, and some landmarks that are particularly important to locals. Our guide was knowledgeable about the evolution of the city from its founding to present day.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed learning about Sapporo’s history. It was a pleasure guiding you. I hope the rest of your time in Hokkaido was memorable, and I’d be delighted to welcome you back again someday.
Tom gave a great personalized tour of Sapporo’s highlights. He was. very knowledgeable and offered much good advice on other activities in the city. His English was really good and he answered all my questions.. It’s my first day in the city and I’d strongly recommend the tour to others.

Tom, our guide was kind enough and very helpful. He was engaging and asked good questions while giving good information.
Dear Jeff, Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure guiding you and sharing my city with you. I especially enjoyed your curiosity and all the great questions you asked. I hope your first time in Hokkaido was a wonderful one, and that you had a great time visiting Sweden Hills in Tobetsu. If you ever get the chance to return, you should definitely come back for the best snow in the world. All the best with your travels! Tom
