Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our food tour in Sapporo with Zarina was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating with our dietary requirements, and thoughtfully honored our request not to share individual servings — we each enjoyed our own ice cream, oyster, sashimi slices, and more. The shared dishes were generous and plentiful, and we ended the tour completely full and satisfied. Beyond the food, Zarina shared fascinating historical and cultural insights, plus practical tourist hacks that made the experience even more valuable. Highly recommended for anyone who wants both great food and meaningful local context."
"Zarina provided a fun itinerary for my friends and I. Highly recommend if you are interested in learning more about the history of Sapporo and its beer scene. "
"Communication with Zarina was excellent from our very first online contact to our meeting place to start our tour at the Sapporo Clock Tower. We spent approximately 4 hours learning about the history and culture of the area. Our favorite parts were the cream puffs from Daimaru Dept. Store, Hokkaido ice cream, sushi, oysters and Sapporo beer at the Sapporo Fish Market. She also kindly fulfilled a spur of the moment special request to find us a place to buy a Sapporo Fighters Baseball team hat! We were prompt for our bus return trip by way of a special coffee shop Zarina suggested. All in all a short and wonderful/fun visit to the city and with Zarina. We highly recommend her as a guide in the city. Thank you again Zarina for the fun day!"

"I enjoyed the tour with Alfred. I got to try different unique food items in Sapporo. The part I enjoyed most was that I could tailor the tour to my own interests. I got to enjoy the Izakaya the most, which is something I would not have found on my own. Very good experience and recommend it."
