millisent 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Morning. We are planning a trip up to Hokkaido this winter and thinking of doing the west and easy of Sapporo. Like the idea of a middle bit and taking in some of Sapporo as well as the skiing. Would you say 1 day (well, 1 night) is enough for Sapporo or does it deserve a bit more perhaps. Interested in the festival, a bit of Japan city nightlife and things that being in a city can give you. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
mitchpee 10 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Definitely worth more than a night. Sapporo is even a great place to base yourself out of (second to Niseko). Tons of good clubs, places to eat, things to do. SLUGGERS a batting cage bar is super fun as well. I would just wander around downtown and you will always find something to do!

RobBright 35 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Agreed, can easily spend a couple of days there, what with the brewery, area around Sapporo and also a short trip to Otaru too for some great seafood. Link to post Share on other sites
mfriedm 4 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I eat myself silly every time I'm in Sapporo. It comes highly recommended, especially if you have a few extra stomachs. Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Yeah, definitely worth more than a day for the reasons mentioned above plus you can base yourself there for the Sapporo resorts! Guess it depends on how long you've got for your whole trip and where else you're planning on going. Link to post Share on other sites

millisent 0 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 OK I think we have it planned now. 6 days on the east, 2 nights/3 days in Sapporo and then a week in Niseko with a trip to Rusutsu. How does that sound then? Link to post Share on other sites
