Unlike simply walking around on your own, this guided tour lets you experience Hakodate’s historic port and hillside neighborhoods through the eyes of a knowledgeable local. You won’t just see the red-brick warehouses, Hachimanzaka Hill, or the Old British Consulate—you’ll understand their stories, from Hakodate’s days as one of Japan’s first international ports to its role as a crossroads of cultures. Your guide brings to life tales of sailors, merchants, and diplomats, adding depth that transforms landmarks into vivid chapters of history. The journey culminates with a ropeway ride to the summit of Mount Hakodate, where the city’s unique geography—a sandbar embraced by the ocean—unfolds beneath you in an unforgettable panorama. This is more than sightseeing; it’s an immersion into the history, culture, and spirit of Hakodate, with insights and views you cannot get on your own.

Hakodate Port was one of the first in Japan to open to international trade in the mid-19th century. Once filled with ships from around the world, it transformed Hakodate into a cosmopolitan city.
