Sapporo: Private Locals-Tour zu unentdeckten Orten

Wenn Sie japanisches Essen probieren, die Sehenswürdigkeiten von Sapporo sehen oder einfach nur mit einem Einheimischen plaudern und etwas über die japanische Kultur lernen möchten, machen Sie eine Tour durch Cityunscripted, wie wir es vor ein paar Tagen gemacht haben. Meine 19-jährige Tochter und ich machten eine 3-stündige persönliche Tour durch Sapporo mit einer reizenden einheimischen Frau, Asuka. Über Cityunscripted haben wir darum gebeten, lokale Spezialitäten zu probieren, interessante Geschäfte zu besuchen und etwas über Sapporo zu lernen. Anschließend werden Sie mit einem englischsprachigen Reiseleiter vor Ort zusammengebracht, der Sie kontaktiert und eine Reiseroute ausarbeitet. Der Kommunikationsprozess per E-Mail verlief einwandfrei. Sie können auch Ihre Startzeit angeben. Asuka traf uns in unserem Hotel, sie war sehr nett, wir erfuhren von ihrem Leben in Japan und von ihrer Familie und ihren Reisen. Sie brachte uns zu 2 verschiedenen Restaurants, einem Suppencurry-Lokal (eine Sapporo-Delikatesse), wo wir eine wundervolle Currysuppe hatten. Dann weiter zu einem schönen Laden, in dem qualitativ hochwertige Produkte aus Japan verkauft werden. Dann zu einem izakaya Restaurant mit Meeresfrüchten, wo wir natürlich einige großartige Meeresfrüchte und Getränke hatten.  Offensichtlich haben die Guides ein Lebensmittelbudget, das Sie je nach Ihren Wünschen einhalten können. Sie mussten ein bisschen mehr für ein paar zusätzliche Getränke bezahlen, aber das war verständlich und in Ordnung. Nach all dem sehr voll! Asuka schickte auch ein paar andere Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants per E-Mail, die wir in unserer Freizeit besuchen konnten. Zusammenfassend ist festzuhalten, dass sich diese Erfahrung gelohnt hat und ich kann die Verwendung von Cityunscripted und das Treffen mit den Einheimischen nur wärmstens empfehlen.

We were were shown places where we dont expect to see on our own like thw tunnel were most people pass through, the markets and tasted the mochi in maruyama park and the delicious hokaido curry soup. Emilio gave us a wonderful time.

Shuinn was wonderful. She was flexible based on the weather, listened to our asks, and built an entire day around what was important to us. We can’t thank her enough. She was so sweet!

We paid over $200 for a four-hour “walking tour” that turned into aimless wandering in the rain and subway stations with almost nothing to see. The guide had no plan for bad weather. She had a terrible sense of direction and timing—often leading us in circles through subway stations and taking the longest routes instead of simple transport options. She repeatedly suggested the chocolate factory, even though it was at the very last station stop, far from where we were. We saw only the government building, reached the Beer Museum an hour before opening, and were dragged to an art museum she said she was visiting anyway. The tour ran long, and I had to end it myself. Completely unorganized and not what was advertised. I appreciate however that the company provided a full refund for our experience.

Had the best time exploring Sapporo with Ryo. We had exchanged emails ahead of time and he was able to customize the tour based on what we wanted to do in town. It was the perfect way to spend our first full day in Sapporo (and Hokkaido in general) as Ryo left us with plenty of tips and recommendations that we used for the rest of our time in the city. Felt like hanging out with an old friend by the end of our tour.

Ryo (Leo) was an awesome guide and really customized the tour to what I was interested in! We saw so much of Sapporo, and it was great to get a sense of the city from his perspective, having lived here for many years. Even outside of the tour, Ryo provided some wonderful recommendations for the rest of my time in Sapporo and other cities I would be visiting in Japan. I was a solo traveler, and it felt like having one of my friends show me around his city!

This was a great first day tour to get the layout of the city and some out of the way highlights. Ryuki was an excellent guide, and he took us to one of our favorite stops in Hokkaido: Asahiyama Memorial Park. The autumn leaves were at their peak, and the walk was lovely. We were able to see a mountain-top view of the city there as well. Along with other stops at the Hokkaido Shrine and the 1972 Winter Olympic Ski Jump, we had an amazing lunch at a ramen place for the special miso ramen. This is a terrific first tour of Sapporo when you only have a few hours.

Emi gave us a great tour of the beautiful Hokkaido Shrine . In addition we enjoyed visiting the whimsical chocolate factory

My husband, I, and our adult son arrived into Sapporo for a quick two day stay. Since we didn't have much time to get to explore the area on our own, we signed up for an afternoon tour to see and learn as possible in the short time. We took a private walking tour with Toru and enjoyed our time sightseeing in the central Sapporo area. Toru was professional and informative and gave us a great overview. We learned a lot and we felt we saw everything we needed to get a feel of the area. Thank you for a fun afternoon!

Our 4 hours Sapporo Private Tour: Highlights & Hidden Gems by a Local is a fantastic introduction to Sapporo. Our tour guide Akihiro is very knowledgeable and personable. We thoroughly enjoyed the excellent local seafood and ice cream introduced by Akihiro. We highly recommend this tour.
