"The most enjoyable and relaxing holiday we've ever experienced."We are very happy have chosen HNT as our tour agent. Ido is a great holiday planner, his knowledge about Hokkaido's sightseeing spot is remarkable. He really work hard to make our journey enjoyable for us and the children.
Our tour guide Andrew is very friendly and sincerely helpful to us. He even playing snow with our children happily. We are very appreciate his efforts to make our journey unforgettable. It's not really like taking a tour with a stranger, indeed we feeling like traveling with our old friend. This is the most enjoyable and relaxing holiday we've ever experience. We are looking forward to joining HNT again if we have chance to visit Hokkaido. Thank you HNT. - A.W. (Indonesia) |
"The best experience in Hokkaido"The best experience in Hokkaido. Ido and Anastasia shows us true hidden gems of this beautiful island. Definitely recommended for everyone.

"Absolutely brilliant!!!!!"I would recommend these guys to anyone who wants to see the REAL Hokkaido. I was looked after with the utmost care and every one of my needs were met. The tour guides are extremely knowledgeable and simply without them I would not have been able to even access hikes and parts of the places I planned to go. An absolute top quality service which I would happily go for again and again. All my questions were answered (and i asked many!) I would strongly advise anyone travelling the hokkaido region to get into contact with Hokkaido Nature Tours!

"Took care of us so well and very considerate in every detail "We would like to thank Hokkaido Nature Tour for giving us a memorable winter holiday with so much fun and experiences. Thanks to our tour guide who had been taking care of us so well throughout the tour, like preparing the winter gear for us, making sure we kept warm, finding snow pants, winter boots and ear warmers. This made us feel so warm and happy. We will definitely use HNT's services again when we come back to Hokkaido for our other holiday season experiences.

"One of a kind travel experience . . . Nature Activities were amazing & wonderful."First of all, we're so grateful to our guide for taking good care of us & arranging everything to keep us warm and safe. We enjoyed our time so much throughout the tour. It was a one of a kind travel experience as none other than HNT could tailor make according to our needs. Sightseeing activities were perfect. Nature Activities were amazing & wonderful.
Appreciate our guide so much. He is not only a tour guide, he is also a good photographer. So great to know HNT. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to joining HNT again for the next visit to Hokkaido. - Mr. & Mrs. P. (Malaysia) |
"A five-star experience"Definitely a five-star experience for me. It was so nice to not have to worry about how to get to where we were going and just enjoy the ride. I was able to stay overnight in a mountain lodge. It's so far from Sapporo that I would never dream of trying to arrange for a trip like that on my own!
Ido and Anastasia were excellent guides and they had everything arranged for us. They even supplied free walking poles and a sleeping bag for me since I didn't have one! By the way, the BBQ was fantastic! We ate like kings! - Tom B. (America) |
"Thanks to our guides and their enthusiasm"Smoking volcanoes, crystal blue lakes, natural hot springs under starry skies....this trip had the best of what Hokkaido can offer.
Driving out east with our wonderful HNT guides (armed of course with some hard-to-resist-singing tunes), my friend and I were taken on an amazing tour over the 4-day weekend. We were driven to some amazing locations where everyday we were surrounded with absolutely stunning scenery. This included the pristine Daisetsuzan National Park and Lake Akan National Park, with plenty of lakes, volcanoes, mountains, onsens, wildlife on offer. We were given the delightful opportunity to eat some delicious local food, and camping among nature with a little fire under the stars ensured a peaceful sleep. It is hard to pick a favourite part of the trip, but thanks to our guides and their enthusiasm to ensure a good time, the trip will be unforgettable. I look forward to the chance to join again sometime in the future. - Ashley S. (Australia) |
"A really amazing trip"That was a really amazing trip - beautiful nature, great BBQ, nice guides, hot onsen, and absolutely no things to worry about from the beginning to the end (that was very good especially for my first-time hiking). I'm totally happy. Looking forward for your next trips!
