We can enjoy taking city buses or city tram from spot to spot. First, we walk to Hakodate morning market, so you can grab some food and fruits if you will. Then take a tram to Red brick warehouses to visit shopping area near the sea front. Next, we take bus to the base station of Mt. Hakodate Ropeway. The ropeway brings us to the 334m high summit of Mt. Hakodate to enjoy one of three significant views in Japan. (Due to the strong wind, Mt. Hakodate Ropeway service can be stopped. In that case, I will recommend an alternative spot) Lastly, we take buses to Goryokaku fort.
From a 90m high tower, you can witness the whole view of the Goryokaku fortress where the last civil war was fought between shognate force and new government force. Lunch can be enjoyed at the summit building of Mt. Hakodate or near the Goryokaku.

Hakodate in a day

5.00We had a good day with our guide, Tomio. We could have taken public transportation but opted for taxi so we didn’t have to wait. Our guide has gotten us tickets for the Goryokaku Tower so we didn’t have to wait in line. The park and fort were very nice. We then headed to the Mt. Hakodate Ropeway but was too windy so we walked from the base across to several other city sites. We had a nice lunch at the Red Brick Warehouses. We saw a lot and had a nice day with Tomio.

5.00We had a wonderful day with Tomio Y. It was so much fun to walk around the Morning Market and taste food samples. Tomio made it very easy for us to ride on public transportation by lending us an extra fare card to use. We saw a lot in a limited amount of time and visited the very best sites in Hakodate. We would highly to recommend Tomio to all visitors.

5.00Very enjoyable and informative trip. Our guide MaiSon was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable, energetic, and professional. All of the temples were well worth going to and the buffet lunch was really great. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

5.00Our guide was pleasant and flexible. We altered schedule so we could spend more time in a spot we really enjoyed. Tomio answered questions and gave overview but also gave freedom to explore on our own.
