★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 25 reviews · 9h 30m · from $170Our pick

Learn Ainu culture, walk Jozankei’s shrines and parks, cross a suspension bridge, and relax in a traditional Hokkaido onsen.

“Tour was awesome. Guide was very knowledgeable and kept good conversation during down time. Some bus wait times were a little long but that’s because it was winter schedule. I would definitely recommend a tour to others but maybe they should do it in the spring or Autumn. I really enjoyed the unique view winter gives but I know some people just can’t do cold.”
