Beschreibung
Discover the charm of Otaru on a guided day trip from Sapporo. Visit the Nikka Whisky Distillery, stroll along the Otaru Canal, or see penguins at the Otaru Aquarium (entry not included).
Begin your day from Sapporo and head to Asari Station, a small, unmanned station on the JR Hakodate Main Line. Stop for 20 minutes to take in the views of the Sea of Japan and snap some photos.
Next, visit the Yoichi Distillery, founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese whisky. Learn about the history of Nikka Whisky and enjoy a tasting session.
【Around 12/23–1/7: The visit to the Yoichi Distillery is cancelled; an aquarium visit will be arranged instead.】
Continue to the Otaru Canal area, known for its nostalgic streetscapes, stone warehouses, and historic buildings. Spend 2 hours exploring the area, visiting cafes and shops housed in historic buildings, and soaking up the unique atmosphere.
[11/28–3/28: The itinerary generally includes the Mt. Tengu Ropeway. In the event of its closure, the visit will be changed to the Otaru Aquarium; the final arrangement will depend on the operational status on the day of your visit.]
For the Mt. Tengu Ropeway, you will need to purchase a ticket at your own expense to ride the cable car to the summit—the highest point in Otaru at an elevation of 532 meters—where you can enjoy panoramic views of Otaru City, Otaru Bay, and Ishikari Bay.
If the visit is changed to the Otaru Aquarium, you will need to purchase an admission ticket at your own expense to explore the marine exhibits. You can see over 250 species of marine life, including seals, sea lions, and dolphins. In winter, you may even catch sight of penguins waddling through the snow.
Finally, visit the Shiroi Koibito Park, a chocolate-themed amusement park operated by Ishiya Confectionery. Pay for your ticket and explore the chocolate museum, factory tour, and dessert-making workshop. Watch the production of Shiroi Koibito cookies through glass windows.
Return to Sapporo in the evening, with drop-off at your hotel.
