HOKKAIDO TOUR – SELF-DRIVE ADVENTURE

Breathtaking Landscapes, Ainu Culture & Wildflower-Filled Roads.

Spring is Hokkaido at its absolute best. This 11-day Hokkaido tour is a self-drive adventure made for travellers who crave wide-open roads, untamed nature, and authentic cultural encounters. Slide behind the wheel and cruise long, empty highways framed by blue skies, snow-dusted peaks, and rolling countryside.

Explore dynamic landscapes on foot and by bike, trekking through meadows bursting with wildflowers and cycling Furano’s gentle hills. Stop at local farms for the sweetest tomatoes you’ve ever tasted, soak in soothing hot springs, and indulge in Hokkaido’s famously fresh seafood.

In Shiretoko National Park, head out on a nature cruise to spot dolphins and, if luck is on your side, killer whales. Along the way, connect with welcoming locals and gain insight into Ainu culture, adding depth and meaning to every mile.

This is Eastern Hokkaido at its most vivid. Wild, welcoming, and wonderfully free.

Dates: Best experienced in May and June or September and October
