2-Day Tour: Tokachi, Furano & Biei
Make the most of your trip to Hokkaido on a 2-Day Tour with HNT! After pick-up from your hotel in Sapporo, we’ll drive to the Tokachi Region to see the award-winning landscape designs and sample locally grown products at Tokachi Millennium Forest. After lunch at the soba town of Shintoku, we’ll explore Japan’s best bear reserve at Sahoro Bear Mountain, where the Jurassic-Park style “safari” will get you up close to the Higuma Brown Bear. From here we’ll continue onto Furano and visit some gourmet spots, followed by the Ningle Terrace Artist Village - a collection of log huts set in a birch forest. We’ll overnight in Furano with breakfast included.
Day 2 will start with the famed Tomita Farm flower fields, followed by Shikisai-no-Oka flower fields. Both are remarkable in their own way. Also in Biei, we’ll check out the patchwork road, the iconic Blue Pond & Shirahige Falls, and a local products market. In the afternoon, we’ll embark on the Mt. Tokachidake scenic mountain road for a chance to walk at the base of Hokkaido’s deadliest volcano, dip your feet at a wild onsen and spot Ezo-deer & Hokkaido red foxes.

Our Guiding Policy
Paramount for HNT tours is the safety and well-being of our clients. Our extensive experience in the mountains of Hokkaido and internationally gives us a profound respect for the powers of nature, and we will not hesitate to alter a trip if we encounter adverse weather conditions. All scheduled plans in the itinerary are subject to change according to safety conditions. Your safety is truly our top-priority.
Disclaimer
We take great care in creating fantastic tours for our guests which are custom-made to match their preferences. We will endeavor to follow the itinerary to the greatest possible extent. However, if changes to an itinerary must be made due to weather conditions, guest safety concerns or unexpected delays during a tour, HNT is not responsible if aspects of a tour cannot be achieved. If aspects of a tour are missed due to reasons beyond the guest’s control (such as weather related, unannounced closures, etc.), a refund will be provided for any missed activities, not including any cancellation fees imposed by hotels, operators or others.
Deposit & Cancellation Policy
A minimum 50% deposit must be received in order to confirm your tour with us at HNT. Any cancellations by any participants made prior to 30 days before the start of a tour are eligible for a 50% deposit refund (e.g. appx. 25% of the total tour price). Any cancellations by any participants made within & including 30 days before the start of a tour are not eligible for a deposit refund. Remainder payments can be settled in advance of the tour (2 weeks prior preferred) OR in cash (yen only) upon pick-up on Day 1 of the tour. Please note that tour cancellations made due to government mandated travel bans on/by Japan vis-a-vis the guest’s Country of Residence will be eligible for more lenient refund policies (please inquire for details).
Covid-related Tour Policy
With the unpredictability of travel due to the Coronavirus, we understand the need for greater flexibility while planning your trip to Hokkaido. As such, we are offering free tour postponements for any tours affected by international or domestic travel restrictions which restrict access to Hokkaido. If that means we need to cancel and/or re-book activities and/or accommodations, or redesign your custom-made itinerary to better match updated travel dates, we will do so free-of-charge. You can be assured that your tour deposit with us is safe, and we will await your arrival to Hokkaido for whenever conditions allow.
