I just discovered your channel and I’m very happy about it. I like how detailed and organized it is. :) and i love the summary at the end. Very informative
This is a excellent video guide, one of the best I have seen so far. Very detailed. Thank you, really appreciate the information for my upcoming summer trip.
I am Mexican and I have plans to travel to Hokkaido for summer next year, and from all the videos that I have seen, yours are the most helpful. Thank you so much! for making crossing the world and also the country way more easier.
Really lvoe these in depth history and tourism videos. So much more info than a basic youtube tourism video. I also like this video with you narrating WAY more than your videos with just images and music
oh planning a trip to hokaido for next year autumn. It may not be the most beautiful during autumn, but the simple forgotten old town vibe is perfect for me. Plan to go there and have a relaxing day exploring, this video is very informative and helpful, thank you
I'm so glad to find your channel. It makes it so easy to make informed decision while planning for my trip to Hokkaido. Wishing your channel all the best!
Going to Hokkaido next month, I'm loving your videos - thank you, its been well put together. I enjoyed the history introduction, highlights and especially the local dishes you suggest to try out.
Thanks for this wonderful video. We won’t be visiting the aquarium and the observatory. So is a day trip to Otaro enough time to leisurely tour Otaru if we take the earliest train from Saporro and the last train back? Or would you advise an overnight stay?
Three times a year, JR offer cut-rate Bullet train deals exclusively for the elderly who have signed up for JR membership. So the average age of passengers during the five-day periods of the offer is around 75. The Tohoku leg takes you all the way to Hakodate in Hokkaido. Essentially there are no Bullet trains in Hokkaido. So after that you have to take the regular JR trains to Sapporo, Otaru and beyond, which are included in the deal. Japan has become the hot destination for western visitors, largely because of favourable exchange rates. No rainy season in Hokkaido so this may well be a factor. Because of the recent influx of foreign tourists combined with domestic tourists, hotels in Otaru tend to get heavily booked, so parasite booking outfits like Agoda and Expedia indulge in price gouging. But persevere and providing you factor in some lead time, it is possible to score a reasonably-priced room. Bur be aware that hotels in Japan tend to charge per person rather than by the room, but this is changing. The Nikka Whisky tour tends to be over booked, too.

fantastic video. Visiting Otaru later in Dec 2024. Your video is the most helpful about Otaru I've seen on UA-cam.

Great presentation, Otaru was our favourite place to visit in Japan, we were there in October and it was very pretty in Autumn

Thanks for the information
TQ for sharing。 would you recommend 1 day or 2D1N visit for Otaru?
well done I will go for a day in the coming fall from Sapporo Domo arigato.
Odd. This looks like canalave city. I visited there when I was young on a cruise boat that departed and entered right in the canal.
Я там буду после завтра
