It is a charming city where cultural heritages and modern liveliness are integrated together. You are introduced to a luxurious tour visiting Hakodate's night view spots by rickshaw. Rickshaw is a two-wheel vehicle designed to carry people and is pulled by a rickshaw driver. It is faster than walking and can run on the roadway more safely than a bicycle, even when the passenger has baggage. So they are operated in many places in Japan since the 19th century. The rickshaw driver taking care of you on this tour knows all the tourist attractions and backstreets. He is an expert who offers a kind and careful tour. The rickshaw is capable of stable traveling without letting the passengers get wet even on a rainy or snowy day. What is more, a passenger using a wheelchair or having a stroller can enjoy the ride comfortably. (Please consult us when you book the tour.) At first, you are recommended to take a ropeway up to Mt. Hakodate and enjoy the marvelous evening views from the top of the mountain. (The ropeway fare is paid separately.) After getting off the ropeway, you will travel around Preservation Districts for Groups of Historic Buildings in Hakodate. The port town flourished from the 19th to the beginning of the 20th century still reserves a townscape representing a fusion of eastern and western cultures. You can enjoy the romantic scenery illuminated at night time. You may be able to encounter unexpected events or views. At the end of the tour, you can be sent to Hakodate Station and its neighborhood (only for 45 and 60-minute tours) This tour is recommended for those who like to enjoy Hokkaido even not knowing where to go, want to enjoy a tour comfortably without getting lost, and like to appreciate the scenery different from the usual.
