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.

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.

Very accommodating, informative and great customer service. Our guide Shiun was friendly and a very lovely woman. She took us around town, gave us options, took our pictures, kept to our pace and had great communication. Highly recommend.

A great day out with Leo (Ryo) as private guide. He is a fluent (native) English speaker but also Japanese and knows Sapporo very well. It was like getting a private tour from a friend. It was somewhat unstructured, which I really liked because we were able to stop into various stores and other places of interest on the way, whenever I wanted - and Leo made recommendations

Mrs Shiunn is super friendly and considerate when it comes to making minor adjustments to the proposed itinerary

Shiunn Tei is a great guide. She was on time, very personable, and spoke excellent English (and Japanese!). Shiunn accomodated our request to visit artisanal producers, we had a memorable experience at a traditional tea shop. The owner had a wide and deep knowledge of Japanese teas and importantly, showed us the how and why of brewing. The next step Shiunn shared the founding of Sapporo city and showed us sites (free!) you wouldn't normally find. We toured government buildings-sounds boring but it wasn't in her hands. There was a brief stop at a cafe decorated inside with dried flowers, very pretty and cozy. We then went to Maruyama park which contained a large, beautiful shrine. Shiunn pointed out a shop that made fresh pancakes with bean filling, a Japanese treat. It was a refreshing break! Next was the underground passage/shopping way that connects Sapporo Station, Odori Park, and Susukino. The walkways are a necessity in a city that receives ~16 feet of snow a year. It was an easy, and cooler way to walk with no street traffic. If you need retail therapy, this walk is for you! Loads of stores at the north end at Sapporo Station. Here is where we parted after 4 hours of touring, and we went on to enjoy a tempura and soba lunch. Thanks Shiunn, we had a memorable time.

Great Tour with a great Guide! Leo was my perfect company for that late afternoon walk. He brought me to some amazing places and provided the best experience with a dinner in a home cooking restaurant.

We had a great time exploring Sapporo with Shiunn. She was very patient with my elderly grandfather and we enjoyed her company and she felt like family. She was knowledgeable on the city and speaks fluent English and Japanese, so breezing through the city was refreshing!
