9 Multi-Day Japan Tours That Stop in Sapporo

1.North Japan 11-Day Tour by Europamundo

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 17 reviews · 11 days · from $3615Our pick

Travel from Tokyo through Nikko, Tohoku and Hokkaido on an 11-day guided coach tour, with temple visits, a Matsushima Bay cruise, Ainu culture and an overnight ferry. Guides such as Ken and David have earned praise, though guide assignments can change.

“Very well organised, great variety of places to visit, comfortable tourist bus, ferry and boat, and hotels, but best of all was the wonderful guide, Ken. He really helped to make our whole tour. His enthusiasm for Japanese culture, country and beauty; his sense of humour; his organisational skills which made it all so seamless; and his excellent manner with the passengers, the driver and our hosts at all the locations were most impressive. I would certainly recommend this tour to others - but especially if Ken or guides of his calibre are included.”

Guides may change, and some departures combine English and Spanish groups. Expect a full schedule, substantial walking and a mix of city hotels and traditional stays.

“The trip completely fulfilled our expectations (with a small restriction regarding Hiroshima)! The days were long and exhausting, but the respective starting points always motivated us to tackle the average daily distance of around 7km or 14 floors! The hotels were all good, as was the included or recommended food. The tour guides were good to top in a certain range, the group discipline in terms of keeping to the times was sometimes quite lax.”

“This 12 Days Summer Tokyo and Hokkaido tour was truly an experience in what could be called a well planned itinerary. Tokyo was intense, as always, with its high buildings, myriad food choices, and neighborhoods bursting with personality. As we moved further north to Hokkaido, the rolling hills, colourful summer flowers and milder climate made it feel like a completely different country in which to discover at our own leisure. This trip was truly unforgettable as it was a trip across two completely different worlds in one! From the accommodation options to the scheduling of activities, everything seemed to have been thought of to ensure the travellers enjoyed a complete…”
