Hi, I’m Emi, and I absolutely love sharing the best of Sapporo with visitors! From the thrill of skiing at local resorts in winter to cycling along the beautiful Toyohira River in summer, this city is packed with unforgettable experiences. Sapporo’s food scene is a treasure trove of flavors, and I know exactly where to go for everything from hidden alleyway bars to upscale dining – all tailored to your taste and budget. Whether it’s exploring the vibrant entertainment district of Susukino or diving into the shopping hotspots of Odori and Sapporo Station, I’ve got you covered. I have an intricate knowledge of the city’s nightlife, from cozy izakayas to buzzing music clubs and pubs. Sapporo is bursting with energy and charm, and I’m here to make sure you experience it all. Let’s create a journey full of memorable moments. I can't wait to show you around!

Emi had excellent local knowledge and tailored the excursion to suit our needs and interests. Her husband Dave came along and (being a native English speaker) helped make everything run smoothly.
