This is definitely a recommended plan for those who want to enjoy Hokkaido's winter to the fullest. Depart from Sapporo and experience snowshoeing and dog sledding in the Furano and Biei-machi areas, central Hokkaido. Enjoy local gourmet food, soak in the hot springs, and then enjoy a delicious dinner at the hotel before heading home. We recommend the one-day adventure course. Our guides recommend this exciting adventure, where the sights change depending on the season.
Excellent tour!!! Our guide Kishi was great and we had an overall great experience. The only but for this tour is that the dog sledding is only 2 very short laps of about 1 minute each. I wish the dog sledding was at least 30 minute long. Everything else was really good.
