We took a 12 day package tour as a family of 4, going through: Sapporo, Lake Shikotsu, Otaru, Shiraoi, Noboribetsu, Lake Toya and Mt Usu, Kuromatsunai, Hakodate, and Onuma.
Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel worked so well with us to craft every day on the itinerary and inform us on all the paperwork for a smooth entry to Japan (on short notice, too!) and when we got to experience it, it was perfectly paced and full of wonderful activities.
A highlight was the day spent visiting local farms in Kuromatsunai, we met lovely people passionate about their home, ate amazing fresh produce, and relaxed with lunch by the forest and fishing in the river. The trip HTIT planned as a whole was like this — we never felt rushed to go to the next destination, and we genuinely got to learn about the people, forests, lakes, and mountains.
HTIT organised amazing local guides for us, so another highlight was Hakodate. It’s a fascinating city with an old world feel, and our guide Sara took us to marvellous corners of it, also speedily planning new activities for us when rainy weather cancelled our outdoor activities.
We can’t thank Jordan from Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel enough — she went above and beyond personally welcoming us with lunch upon our arrival, joining us on a hiking trail herself when a local guide wasn’t available, and meeting us again at the end of our trip with a cake for my early birthday!
Hokkaido is an amazing place in the world and we absolutely recommend Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel for tailoring the best visit you could experience.

We spent a most amazing 10 days in Hokkaido thanks to Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel. The attention to details and our preferences were much appreciated. Our travel consultant Eriko Kakudate san took the extra mile by personally meeting with us prior to the trip. Our preferences and interests as well as our budget and the length of our stay were taken into consideration to carefully plan a trip that was unique, fulfilling and enjoyable. We enjoyed the suggested destinations largely because they weren't the usual tourist traps. We had private lessons in glass blowing, soba making and Japanese sweets. We enjoyed our interaction with the locals and the exposure to the culture. We did not feel rushed at all in our itinerary and had time to spend in places where we wanted to stay longer. Eriko san was very thorough and communicated with us as needed specially when we had to reschedule our trip. We appreciate her work and dedication. We are thankful that she took the time to meet us upon arrival and again on two other occasions to ask how we were and even share a meal. She is an asset to HTIT.
Our personal driver Shuji Takeuchi san was likewise excellent. He was very professional and recommended good places to eat in and experiences to try (like the onsen and eating local food). He made sure we were comfortable with the vehicle we used and offered even free use of his wifi and AC to charge our phones. He even volunteered to take our photos. We appreciate that he was mindful that one of us had physical limitations. He assisted us each time we checked in our hotels and helped us with room preferences.
Our trip was made memorable largely because of HTIT. It was the best way to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Our thanks to HTIT, Eriko san, Shu san and all the wonderful people we met. We shall return.

I am happy from the bottom of my heart that your wedding anniversary trip was memorable for you. I think we were lucky meeting in Manila before your tour. We could know each other. Hope you come back to Hokkaido again in the near future. It would be very nice if I see you again in my life :))

Highly recommended! We are a family of four with 2 kids aged 9 and 12. Kanae helped design our itinerary, putting together a tour of Hokkaido taking into account our kids and what we liked. We had unique experiences in rural parts of Hokkaido and visited beautiful snow mountains, onsen areas and had lots of fun with various activities organized. The food was amazing and our driver and guide Shu-san was an amazing driver who was careful with icy roads and was such a great company and great with kids.

Thank you so much for your comment here! I am so happy to hear that you had a nice time in Hokkaido and also amazing food;) *Food is one of the reasons why I cannot live anywhere else but Hokkaido!
Please come back to Hokkaido again since it is also just a part of Hokkaido you had experienced - and in every season, atmosphere is totally different so you can have family fun!
Thank you so much again and see you soon again! Kanae - HTIT

For our family's first experience with snow, every experience and activity exposed us slowly to the magic and fun of snow. It was also especially comfortable for us as we were in the comforts of only our family members. We were also brought to places we wouldn't have gone if we went with a normal tour group instead, allowing us to experience something different and unique! Kanae-san and Masa-san were also especially friendly and we thank Masa-san so much for driving us everywhere safely. All in all, we recommend Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel Inc to everyone, especially if they want a tailored, unique experience for their travel fantasies!

HTIT is a very recommended travel agent who will take good care of you and your family's needs.
Our customized 9D8N itinerary went well except for the part where the weather didn't permit us.
Our consultant, Jordan, despite that we're her first client, Jordan seems very professional, and accommodating, and made all the effort she could to meet our requirements as a Muslim traveler. Her effort starts 2months before we traveled! We also got free meals from the HTIT that is not part of earlier arrangements.
Our English-speaking driver Tatsuya-san was very helpful, kind, responsible, and do more than the typical driver. He ensure our safety, make sure we enjoyed everything food, sightseeing, and local experience, and even took very good photographs, a rare skill a driver would do! He always asked for feedback so that he can improve further.
Our day trip guide in Sapporo is a very thoughtful professional guide. Even for a short acquaintance, he prepared a nice give handed in at the end of the day.

We had a private tour for our family and it was arranged beautifully. It was the end of winter on this side of Japan, no flower season nor snow festival. But still we were surprised by Megumi san and her collegues. Food delicious! We were brought to this small unassuming restaurant but have the best salmon hotpot Ishikari Nabe. A hidden gem. The Ryokan perfect with the private onsen. The driver so kind and accommodating. Taji san so professional. Salute!

Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel arranged our private group tour of 8 pax. The travel consultants (Koari -san & Haruka-san) provided excellent planning services. My family enjoyed the program/itinerary/activities (hiking. rafting, snow walking, cruises to see bear & whales, beautiful sightseeing spots , onsen etc). The private guides for the activities were also passionate and provided excellent services to make the activity so much fun to enjoy. To top it off we had very wonderful/special accomodation and the yummy/sumptuous breakfast & dinners that were included. The lunch recommendations were also delicious. We are also very pleased with our Jumbo Driver Tatsuji Oohashi-san for his excellent safe driving and patience with the group. It was an epic trip for my family. I would definitely recommend to go with Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel. especially we love the accomodation/meals at Kiki Shiretoko ; Log Hotel Larch & Auberge Tefutefu (staying in famous photographer 's pension Kent Shiraishi).

We have just spent 10 Days in Hokkaido on a private tour organised by Miwa. Our trip was everything we asked for and more. Our driver Tatsuji san was an absolute pleasure to spend time with. His excellent driving skills, restaurant suggestions and music selections were an absolute joy. We would highly recommend this company to travel with around the lovely Hokkaido.

Hi. I am coming for a trip from Dec 25 to Jan 3. I have make hotel booking in Noboribetsu, Lake Toya, Hokodate, Otaru and Sapporo. I was thinking to get a transport and tour guide along the journey if this will give a good experience in this lovely island. I am in transit in Singapore now and if possible can get some information when I touch down Chitose airport tomorrow morning.
I know it is a bit hurry now. But if there is anything can work out will be great. Thank you.

Hello,
I was wondering if this tour could be amended a little where we could spend more time in one place than another? Also, would it be possible to contact this company directly via e-mail? We are a group of approximately 21 family members. Would there be a bus/shuttle available that could accomomdate all of us? We are looking at early June 2019. Thank you for your time.

Dear elsie37
Thank you very much for contacting us here! We offer “Sapporo Full Day Private Tour” on TripAdvisor but it doesn’t have an option for 10 people now.
If possible, would you advise me when you will come to Hokkaido? I will consider if we can make the option for the season.

Hokkaido Treasure Island Travel conducts a wide range of tours, ranging from activities lasting a few hours to a day, to group tours lasting a few days, to customized private tours. They do so all year round, though the prevailing season would affect the availability of certain types of tour. Their website contains a list of available activities and tour itineraries, as well as contact details. And they can communicate in English, even though they are based in Sapporo.
