Tour description
Sapporo is the vibrant capital of Japan's northern island of Hokkaido, a young and spacious city famous for its beer, ramen, winter festival and grid-planned streets. Cool, green and welcoming, it has a distinctly different feel from the rest of Japan. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its history and character.
You will visit the historic Clock Tower, stroll the grand Odori Park, and hear about the American-influenced planning of the city and its famous snow festival. Along the way you will discover the food culture Sapporo is loved for. Relaxed and welcoming, Sapporo is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
