Local Experience

🍁 Late September is Fall Season in Japan, but the Fall Foliage still rarely happens in big cities except for Hokkaido. Let's witness it together from Daisetsuzan National Park where we can ride Kurodake Ropeway to watch heavenly scenery from Mount Kurodake. 🍜 There will be an Autumn Festival in Odori Park which you shouldn't miss! There are a lot of local tasty foods to try! 🎢 Then, we will move to Nagoya and visit their infamous Amusement Park which also has ONSEN! I guarantee unlimited excitement! 🌀 Last stop should be in Osaka and we will visit Naruto where we can watch the whirlpool (it is best to watch it in Autumn too, perfect timing!) 🚄 Our tour will be using JR Pass (7 days) so we will move from one city to another by Shinkansen. 👩 I am looking for 3 travel buddies (preferably women) who are respectful, easy to mingle, love food, amusement parks, and nature! If you're interested, please reach out, so we can get to know each other!

Tokyo

Day 1-2

We will meet in Tokyo on our first day because most of us will be arrived either in Narita or Haneda Airport. We can travel around Tokyo first before we moved to Sapporo and check-in there. We will go to Sapporo via Tokyo Station with Shinkansen that took us about 8 hours long ride.

Sapporo

Day 2-3

Arrived in Sapporo, we will check-in to our Apartment. I recommend to have a rest today because we will go to Daisetsuzan National Park the next day and we might need to walk on hiking trails! In Sapporo we will attend Sapporo Autumn Festival in Odori Park and try different local tasty foods.

Daisetsuzan National Park

Day 3-4

From Sapporo Station, we will go to Kamikawa Station via Asahikawa Station. From there we will take a bus to Sounkyo Visitor Center where we can take a stroll to see Ryusei Waterfalls and several waterfalls close to it. Then, we can take Kurodake Ropeway + Chair Lift which will let us go to the 7th Station closer to the summit of Mount Kurodake. Let's enjoy the scenery there! After we return to Sounkyo we might stop in public bath (onsen) before we go home!

Nagoya

Day 4-5

After 3 nights in Sapporo we will move to Nagoya. It will take us approximately 10 hours so it will be a long ride but we once again will use Shinkansen, so you can rest peacefully in the train. We can visit Nagoya Castle, Science Museum, or other attraction spots you want to see in Nagoya.

Nagashima Spa Land

Day 5-6

Next stop will be Nagashima Spa Land, the biggest Amusement Park in Japan! There are about 50 attractions including the thrill ride such as the super coaster "Steel Dragon 2000" listed in the Guinness World Records, "Acrobat", the first flying coaster to be introduced in Japan, and "White Cyclone", the biggest wooden coaster in Japan. After a long exciting experience in Amusement Park we can enjoy their Onsen too!

Osaka

Day 6-7

2 nights in Nagoya passed, we will move to the next city, Osaka. Our travel with Shinkansen this time won't took that long. After arrived in Shin-Osaka Station, we will check-in to our Apartment. You can request where you want to visit in Osaka, for example Osaka Castle, Dotonbori, Shinsekai, etc.

Naruto
