5.00We had a fabulous day. Lake Shikotsu is beautiful and Chris is a brilliant guide. He was informative, responsive and very passionate and professional about his work. The tour suited us perfectly with an intro at the Visitor Centre and detailed descriptions about geology, plant and animal life on our walks. We’re looking forward to our next trip with Chris and highly recommend this tour.
