Awesome video. I was just there 2/6 to 2/12 for the yuki matsuri also! Lots of lines for everything, but it was awesome. Looking forward to rest of your series.
omg! I left Sapporo the day after you arrived! The Snow Festival was the main reason we went! It was so fun! Sad that I missed the Otaru light up though
Wonderful video ❤️My Ojisan used to travel to Hokkaido every year and bring me back Kitsune 🦊Omiyage. I love Kitsune 🦊till today because of his lovely gifts. Watching your video made me think of him. Im glad u had such a great time there Rion! Also,I have a feeling you will be getting alot of spicy plastic 200 yen takoyaki 🐙 balls in your future! 🤔 🤣😂😆
Really nice, I have only been to Hakodate in Hokkaido but nothing further north .... really want to Visit Sapporo in the Future at least once but for Snow I think Aomori might be more interesting ? Also that Hotel is super expensive but makes sense when there is a Festival and many visitors come there.
I'd say arrive at the airport two hours before the flight departs. You wouldn't want to rush and you wouldn't want to wait too long if the flight gets delayed.
I was in osaka last Nov. It was cold outside and I had to wear my jacket. But when I got inside the train or malls, I had to remove it coz I was sweating. And then put it on again when I get out. At the end, I decided not to wear my jacket anymore.
My husband and I were just in Tokyo. I was hoping to run into you and say “Gaoooo!” but saw you were in Hokkaido. We went to many areas you visited on your stream. Hope you enjoyed yourself in Hokkaido. We experienced snow for the first time when we went a few years ago and saw snow in Tokyo last week!
At least most of the shops resume at Narita. Can't wait for your Hokkaido Vlog. Sandos are always good for quick bites. Takoyaki will be challenging. It depends on what time is the flight and any lounge use. At least 2 hours before flight if there is lounge use. If not, 1.5 hours at least before flight.
Was there Feb 28-March 3, 2018. Couldn't book our group during Odori Snow Festival, as well as can't afford. Times 10 in price comparison. Took the Chitose-Sapporo train that run for about one hour. Stayed at Nakajima area. Still remember my first time, and so far, only time there. Needless to say, I was a victim too of snow, I slipped and fell down, twice. Charged to experience, part of the experience. Loved every bit of it.
VERY informative video Rion ! Since we will be in Japan soon after 10 years ! Now we know how to catch the bus from Tokyo to Narita !!!! Maybe one day do a video of clean affordable hotels in Tokyo ?
Rion, in the convenience stores , they sell metal or rubber spikes that you can attach to your shoes. They help prevent you from slipping on the ice. The spikes are attached to a strap that attaches to your shoes. Have a great trip!
Thanks you for your sharing Rion. I was looking your full video. Nice and beautiful place at Hokkaido Sapporo. I am excited and interested going to Sapporo Hokkaido. Can I asked you Rion, how much cost by airplane from Narita/Haneda airport to Sapporo Hokkaido and how much cost if by train? Thanks you so much Rion.
I've always wanted to visit Hokkaido/Sapporo and specifically the snow festival, thank you for showing the traveling experience in great detail! Looking forward to the rest!
Awesome video! So happy to watch you again ☺️, really missed you alot Rion-san. You're Amazing 😍✨ Thankyou so much for the video! The takoyaki holder is Meccha Kawaii 🥰. Hope you have a wonderful day ahead and God bless 🙏🏻❤️
Your excitement before your flight into another adventure to the place you have not visited before could be felt very well. The sunset taken from both the plain as well as the train with whitness of the snow in front of it just so lovely to watch. Supporo seems to be a nice town with the special atmosphere visible even at night. Although rather cold you could have enjoyed both the strolling of the streets and the yummy dinner. Snow festival has a special vibe even at night. Congrats, the whole video was another fun. I cannot help waiting for the rest of your Hokkaido adventure.
Dear RION ISHIDA, GOD BLESS OUR TRIP TO SAPPORO AND HOKKAIDO! GAAAOOO!!! That SAPPORO was the Birthplace Rock Band Animé Called GYROAXIA and HOKKAIDO was the Birthplace Pop/Rock Band Animé Called ARGONAVIS!!! GOOD LUCK TO YOUR TRIP! GAAAAAOOOOO!!!🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁 -BRIAN, Muntinlupa City, Manila, Philippines
Finally a video on Hokkaido! Missing Hokkaido and their king crabs ramen. For airport check in 3 hrs before to enjoy lounge facility and food and for boarding time, at the gate half an hour earlier. Hate to sprint after the announcement on last call 😅 which I did before. Do carry some enzyme pill with you and pop before food it helps over eating and quick digestions. Can't wait for your next Sapporo video
Thanks for letting us know the cost of the flight and hotel. The night scenery of the city is beautiful. Be careful of black ice (patches of ice that are not visible)! Looking forward to the next video!🙏
Oooh~ thank you for that tip dear! Since I grew up in a tropical country, I also don’t know about this 😅 but there’s some kind of an ‘accessory’ where you’ll attach it to your shoes so that you won’t slip. Is that really working? 😅
Finally, Hokkaido here Rion comes! 😄 I love the snowy night scenery! Was that the famous Hokkaido ramen miso you had for dinner? I'm so excited to see the Sapporo Snow Festival and your food adventure on your next video. 😄
Have fun in Hokkaido, Rion. I've never been to Hokkaido but my parents have ever been to Hokkaido. It's pretty cold in Hokkaido but it's a nice trip. Thank you for your information.
Goodbye Tokyo Station 👋, let’s keep walking to Hokkaido ❄️😉🎉! 4:07 this apple is so cute, the takoyaki of Rion gashapon is also cute, can squeeze taco out 🐙😁👏, 5:03 🎌Welcome to Japan🎌 😉! 12:15 ♨️😖 12:30 😧😖 12:46 Rion be careful of your cat's tongue 😮😅🤦🏻♀️. It takes time to get to the boarding gate, and boarding is generally at least 30 minutes earlier, so try your best , it's better to arrive early 😉👍! 15:18 The scenery is beautiful😍👏. 17:25 The beautiful snow scene😍👏👍! 17:55 😮-4 degrees, Rion is like smoking a cigarette 🚬😆. 20:08 be careful😮😬! 20:55 😮 sculptures made from snow 😍👍👏! 25:55 fresh green onions on top 😋, the weather is too cold and the people waiting in line are hungry and pitiful🥹. 28:13 Rion the stomach is relatively small, don’t eat much😌. Thank you so much for the important travel tip🙏👍👏. Thank you so much for your wonderful Hokkaido trip and will looking forward your next video 🤩😍🤝!
Yes, yes, yes! I'm so happy the video is here! Really enjoyed the brief tour of Narita Airport and the restaurants. Now I know what is good to eat after landing. While you did have the black shirt, I was nervous about the takoyaki sauce staining it 😱 In terms of airport arrival question: I would rather be safe and arrive 2 -3hrs before. I am only saying based on my own experience in the US. If you are not familiar with the TSA in the US, they make going through security really tough, especially in NY🤣 I can totally feel the cold second-hand 🥶 when you got to Sapporo. Please, please wear a hat next time. You lose a good percentage of body heat from your head. Can't wait for part 2! Rest well, and thanks for the hard work!
I also agree that we should be at the airport 2-3 hours earlier and 3-4 hours earlier if you’re leaving during peak seasons because the lines and the crowd will go crazy for sure! 😂😂😂
@@paripitiffany we can totally relate to Rion when he breath with smoke coming out because my family and I were like that every time we’re in a winter country 😂😂😂
I was at Sapporo 1 day before you arrived :( missed you just by one day 😢 i also ran from terminal 2 to 3 to catch jetstar, it was crazy with many luggages
Thanks for the travel tip at the end, but with ramen, it's too good not to eat the whole thing isn't it? 🍜 Even if you'll regret it later 😅So fun that we are going along with you on your first trip to Hokkaido! Looking forward to seeing the snow festival next time! ❄☃
Hehehe I totally agree with you, dear! In Filipino saying, we say “nasa huli lagi ang pagsisisi” (regret always comes last) because how can you say no to a delicious meal? 😆 So to “appease the guilt feeling”, we’ll just say “YOLO!” 😂😂😂
After rewatching your typhoon vidio including your audio part I realized that how your charming voice and naration add to your stunning video filming making a total perfect experience for any viewer. I am glad that you safely survived the most severe part of the typhoon on the previous day and were able to make this less badly looking side of a typhoon, due to which even many stores and restaurants could have been opened for so many stuck travelers - including your beloved KURA place. It was fun to watch how you enjoyed your various food items. In the end you showed your warm heart by giving away the gadgets you have won to some kids. This was not your first time for I remember the crocodile episode at Tokyo Station in the past. By the way your new permed hairstyle and the appropriate haircut by your dad suits you so well. I prefer your longer hair but due to hot and humid Japanese summer this is the right solution. Perfect choice! Looking forward to your next edited video covering your return trip to Tokyo and perhaps some sneaky peacks dealing with your future travel plans. GAAOO!!!
Hey Rion! I had the chance to visit Hokkaido last December, watching you excited before the flight made me remember my trip there. Hopefully you have a fantastic time there! Also Jetstar Japan is actually owned by Qantas (the Australian national airline). Best wishes from Sydney, Australia!
Yay! The Hokkaido Series is already started 😃🎉 Even it’s kind of crowded (and hassle in some occasions), I am very happy to see that people are coming back to explore the world again and the tourism-related businesses are also booming again 😊👍 Sapporo (or Hokkaido in general) is one of the places in Japan that my family and I really really want to visit ❤ and we keep on discussing what transportation should we take if we go there (we’re torn between Shinkansen & Air Plane). That’s why this video will help us to make a decision 👍 Thanks Rion for sharing your travel experience going to Sapporo. We’re very excited to see your journey there because we can definitely tell that you had fun! 😃 ⛄️ Take care always and God bless! 😊 🙏
Yea, the 5-hr. train ride could be fun, too! I’ve not considered visiting Hokkaido, but Rion has mentioned that it’s beautiful in the summer, too. Hope he could return and enjoy it again. 😊
I had tried putting traction coils on my hiking boots. Doesn't work on thin ice. Only works on packed snow. Nothing really works for walking on thin ice. 😖 For cars, we have chains for navigating hills and snow tires with deep treads for winter driving.
My husband and I went in 2020 and it was the most beautiful place! We also went skiing out in kukusai and had an amazing time. It’s definitely is a must go place in Hokkaido
Hey Rion, thank you for sharing this helpful tips about location of Tokyo Disneyland. I didn’t know that it is located in Chiba prefecture like NRT. I think many people might assume that it’s in Tokyo since it’s called “Tokyo Disneyland.” This reminds me of a couple of similar situations in the US, such as San Francisco international airport being in San Mateo county instead of San Francisco, and San Francisco premium outlets being located in a city called Livermore about 40 miles away from San Francisco. It goes to show that sometimes things are not always what they seem at first glance?😊
Is the luggage weight limit very strict in Japan? Do they always check the weight of all your bags inc. carry-on luggage? Love seeing the tourism coming back.
Tbh if you're taking an international flight and you get assigned to be stuck in Terminal 1 and youre there a bit early, just walk over to Terminal 2 for a bit before checking in. I feel like theres more stuff there lmao Still funny tho the Japanese Airport price is just normal price for places like US or Canada lol
Man I am seriously thinking of taking the Shinkansen to Hakodate next time I’m in Japan even though it would take a lot time compared to a short flight
for Preview of Hokkaido trip and my daily life please check my Instagram story and "2023 trip" clips 😆: instagram.com/rion_tv_japan
Awesome video. I was just there 2/6 to 2/12 for the yuki matsuri also! Lots of lines for everything, but it was awesome. Looking forward to rest of your series.
I want go to Hokkaido next month. I will put your activity in my bucket list. Can't wait to eat the ramen
Gaoooooo cool video Rion have fun I just got from Manhattan New York back to Az fun trip have a good one kanpai 🍻🤟☮️💟🍀😜🤘🦋
omg! I left Sapporo the day after you arrived! The Snow Festival was the main reason we went! It was so fun! Sad that I missed the Otaru light up though
Wonderful video ❤️My Ojisan used to travel to Hokkaido every year and bring me back Kitsune 🦊Omiyage. I love Kitsune 🦊till today because of his lovely gifts. Watching your video made me think of him. Im glad u had such a great time there Rion! Also,I have a feeling you will be getting alot of spicy plastic 200 yen takoyaki 🐙 balls in your future! 🤔
🤣😂😆
Really nice, I have only been to Hakodate in Hokkaido but nothing further north .... really want to Visit Sapporo in the Future at least once but for Snow I think Aomori might be more interesting ?
Also that Hotel is super expensive but makes sense when there is a Festival and many visitors come there.
I'd say arrive at the airport two hours before the flight departs. You wouldn't want to rush and you wouldn't want to wait too long if the flight gets delayed.
Loving it!!! 😍
I like that you skipped the preview at the start! Wonderful! Thanks Rion, love it
Very excited for your next video 🎥
We also want to go to Sapporo next time, please spill your cold wear & where to buy it. Gao, let's keep walking.
I was in osaka last Nov. It was cold outside and I had to wear my jacket. But when I got inside the train or malls, I had to remove it coz I was sweating. And then put it on again when I get out. At the end, I decided not to wear my jacket anymore.

I really love Hokkaido and I love your video,

I have been there before, i love that place, i hope i can back again
Have a great day 😀

Arigatooo Kedderick!!
🤣True! Sandos and Onigiri, 2 hours of flight! Extra time definitely better than be late!!
I agree that Takoyaki is very challenging. It’s automatic for me to buy an ice cream after I eat Takoyaki because my tongue always get burned 😂
I will be flying from NRT April 26th. Thank you for this video! :)
Hope you had fun in Sapporo! LETS KEEP WALKING
I’m glad he walked instead of taking the train.
@@paripitiffany hahaha! I also guessed that he will walk after he mentioned the time difference between train and walk 😆

I like Muji things. During my trip this Thursday for 10 days, I will be buying Muji luggage ☺️
Rion, in the convenience stores , they sell metal or rubber spikes that you can attach to your shoes. They help prevent you from slipping on the ice. The spikes are attached to a strap that attaches to your shoes. Have a great trip!
you explain with good detail. it is very helpful thank you

Hello from France ,
Thank you for gris great vlog 👍🏻
This has brought back so many memories as I was there 2019. I went there for the snow festival. Such a wonderful country
Love your travel videos. I'm so glad you're in Hokkaido and that you'll be making a snow festival video. Tanoshimidesu! Arigatogozaimasu ☃
Yes dear! I’m also happy that the Hokkaido Vlogs are really happening now and he had fun there 😊👍
I requested this video a long time ago. Finally. In case you meet Harumichi and Yae, say hi from me.
I visited Hokkaido back in December and I love it!

see you in Japan!
See you soon🦁
Hope u had chance to try Sumire ramen at Sapporo... They have their own 7-11 premium gold instant ramen
Hey Rion! I had the chance to visit Hokkaido last December, watching you excited before the flight made me remember my trip there. Hopefully you have a fantastic time there!

Yes, Jetstar Japan is about 40 percent owned by Qantas and 40 percent owned by JAL.

Rion when I move to Japan I feel like Hokkaido is the place I want to move too, but its such a dramatic change from Los Angeles what do you think?
Is the luggage weight limit very strict in Japan?
Do they always check the weight of all your bags inc. carry-on luggage?
Love seeing the tourism coming back.
yes, very strict and I have stoppered before too.
so just be careful😅👍
Love your Livestreams. What clothes do you recommend for Hokkaido in winter? Is North Face a good choice? I am from Cairns, Australia, so always warm.
Belayer parka was warm enough, if not enough you can always buy the heat pack in combini 👍
Rion, the card you recommended to buy so no need for bus reservation is the same as Suica card?
Yes!
@@RionIshida thank you
Tbh if you're taking an international flight and you get assigned to be stuck in Terminal 1 and youre there a bit early, just walk over to Terminal 2 for a bit before checking in. I feel like theres more stuff there lmao
Still funny tho the Japanese Airport price is just normal price for places like US or Canada lol
Is that Fanta melon?? Love it but hard to find here in Kyoto.
Would love to see you make video about japan nature
Man I am seriously thinking of taking the Shinkansen to Hakodate next time I’m in Japan even though it would take a lot time compared to a short flight
wow, u know the song ... amazing!
