Our guide Catherine was very informative and the tour was very enjoyable, a bucket list tick to experience snow falling, thank you Hokkaido.
Penguin March is the bomb.

Catherine was our guide. She spoke perfect English, with a bubbly personality. She repeated everything in mandarin too for the Chinese guests on board. She is very knowledgeable and informative. I've been on many tours throughout Japan, and I learned alot about the culture from her. The tour itself is long, however they offer many stops,and the bus is very comfortable. She has very good command of the group. I would TOTALLY do another tour with her. She also offers lots of tips to the group so we get the best views of everything. Thank you for a wonderful memorable day. Oh, and wanted to mention that you also see lots of wildlife during the bus ride. Spotted deer, foxes, swans, hawks and ducks!
