Can You Do a Private Autumn Tour of Sapporo and Hokkaido? A Licensed Guide's Report
The guests were visitors from North America. They mentioned they had visited Japan four or five times before, but this was their first trip to Hokkaido. Before coming to Hokkaido, they had toured Lake Kawaguchi and its surroundings. They spoke about admiring the beautiful figure of Mount Fuji, which they viewed from a sightseeing boat. Since they came to Hokkaido at the peak of the autumn foliage season, they thoroughly enjoyed the golden and crimson colors of the trees, which are rare in the area where they live. In Sapporo, they said they very much wanted to eat ramen, so I guided them to Ramen Yokocho.

Our guide, Kate was very informative and knew the best places to take us as we visited
during winter. It was very cold, windy and icy, but she managed to get us around safely.
