Ichi-san was a great tour guide to have. He shared with us his knowledge about the places we visited and also brought us to restaurants which served really delicious food. My family had a wonderful holiday with Ichi-san. Thanks to his advise,we managed to do everything as planned without any mishaps. Will definitely get him to be our guide again for the next trip! Thank you Ichi-san!

Me and my family had a wonderful first time visit in Sapporo last September. Yuichi was very attentive & accommodating to our needs and concerns. He made the trip very relaxed but still full of learnings. Thank you for a lovely time, Yuichi. I 100% recommend you to all my friends and relatives.

Months have past, but I have not forgotten the journey we took with Yuichi. It was indeed one of the most memorable experience in Japan. Yuichi is definitely knowledgable and he is extremely approachable. Don't be fooled by the picture, he looked so much younger in person. We went to Noboribetsu, Lake Toya, Otaru. We are even brought to the special places where not a lot of tourists have been. The restaurant and food places he brought us are superb, ie. Lake Hill Farm, Minshuku Aotsuka Shokudou, and more. The scenery and the places of interest he brought us to are breathtaking. Unfortunately, due to the first heavy snowfall of the season, we have to postpone our trip to furano, Biei, but this means that we are going to book him for our next trip to Hokkaido again. He is truly the yuichi (number one).

Our family explore the middle and southern part of Hokaido with Yuichi for 3 (three) full-days visiting Shin-Shinotsu, Lake Kanayama, Noboribetsu, Lake Toya etc. Yuichi picked us up from Sapporo and drove all the way to middle than southern part of Hokkaido and dropped us back to the Sapporo on the last day.
We had a great time with Yuichi, our short trip experience with him is very enjoyable due to his friendly attitude, very knowledgeable about the places that we visited, well spoken English, and his ability to adjust our planned itenerary (based on weather condition) however not missing any single itenerary (that was originally planned) with us. Yuichi drove very carefully over slippery icy roads and always very cautious about safety on the road.
More importantl to us (since our daughter is still very young), the travel activities were very well balanced between outdoor nature activities (short hiking, ice fishing), relaxation activities (ryokan, onsen), cultural activities (short cultural shows, cooking) and as well I had the chance to take beautiful sunset & sunrise pictures at the right spot.
I highly recommend Yuichi and we would like to say thank you for a great journey that we had with you !

We are a group of 3 from Indonesia. We had 2 days trip with Yuichi to Noboribetsu and Otaru. We were supposed to go to Furano and Biei but due to the weather condition at that time we have to change our destination.
Yuichi was also quick on his feet and he recommend us to go to Otaru instead.
He brought us to eat in a seafood restaurant by the seaside. Its quite a distance from the otaru station.
And IT WAS SO GOOD. If we had come by ourselves we wouldn't know about this place and how to get there. So thank you yuichi for giving us the best traveling experience in Hokkaido. We will definitely hire him again if we are happen to be in Hokkaido.

5 days trip with Yuichi's guide to destinations such as Otaru, Hokadate, Sapporo, etc. He was very friendly and patient on our request always. He was recommended a lot of food to us which we keen especially seafood, sushi, ramen... He is good English speaking and we got a lot of informations from him. No doubt, we will hire him again for our next trip once go back Hakkaido again.

We are 19 old time friends from Singapore , Malaysia , Hong Kong and Sydney embarked an Autumn Foliage tour in Hokkaido from 16 to 22 Oct 2018. We chartered a coach and engaged Yuichi Kudo as an private tour guide.
Throughout the 6 days Yuichi san gave us many insights of Hokkaido, he helps us to book a super good seafood and yakitori restaurants . On severally times he also stayed behind ( over time )
to speak to the Japanese waiters to ensure our orders were correct. We really appreciate his caring heart.
He is helpful to attend to our enquiry of train ticketing . We rate him as the best and helpful tour guide in Hokkaido .
Ask me if you want to consider his service .

This was my second tour with Yuichi and he did an excellent job. We had a 12 hour cruise ship stop in Hokodate. Yuichi listened to our interests and designed a tour that fit us perfectly. I would highly recommend using him for any private tour.

We really enjoyed our recent tour of Furano and Biei with tour guide Yuichi Kudo. He did all the pre-tour arrangements: bus to accommodate all 13 of us, itinerary, lunch reservation, etc. He was in constant email communication with our friend RodSy-San to make sure everything would be to our satisfaction for the trip on Sept 21st, 2018.
Yuichi-san is an excellent English speaking tour guide, very knowledgeable as well as patient and attentive to our needs. Being a native of Hokkaido, he was very informative, shared the history, traditions and culture of the Japanese people, specifically those living in Hokkaido.
Yuichi-San’s itinerary for us at Biei and Furano was a perfect, very well-organized tour. He gave us more than enough time to enjoy the Shirahige Waterfall, The Blue Pond, and the fantastic Shikisai-No-Oka garden at Biei as well as Farm Tomita and Ninguru Terrace (Artists’ village) at Furano.
We couldn’t have had a better tour guide than Yuichi-San. All of us will surely recommend him to our friends and family. Many thanks, Yuichi-san!
