Very good explanation

Thank you for the comment. I will definitely make a how to bus video in the future.
Thank you for the video. Going to sapporo this february. Looks like we just need sapica IC card then? for Train and bus.
Sapica does not work with the rapid express right? New Chitose to Sapporo station train?
Thank you mike - for the valuable information. we got suica cards left from our last holiday in osaka. can we use them in sapporo?
Any advice about Wakkanai in November?
Nice and helpful videos, Mike. Maybe you can explain or guide me in taking Train from Sinjuku to Hokadate using JR Pass. Do I have to take a train from Sinjuku to Tokyo station to get on the bullet train? Do you have any idea of the schedule on how early or late we can use the train both ways? Thanks.
Yes... Shinjuku to Tokyo station ... Tokyo station to hakodate
Hi Mike, do you know if Noboribetsu JR Pass can be used to travel from Sapporo station to Tomamu station? Thank you so much.
Thank you Mike. Excellent video. Will there be any snow on 25 Nov 2022 in Sapporo?
Hi masakngasal, thank you for the comment. The snow is a little late compared to last year. The low is still not minus degrees yet so hard to say. But I think we should see some snowfall towards the end of November.
@@mikeinjap Thank you Mike. All the best for your channel. Hope my family can meet you there in sapporo :-)
@@masakngasalmasakngasal7893 Thanks. Would be happy to Meetup when you get here.
@@mikeinjap Thanks Mike. I read your blog. Found it on google. I have full respect for you. Amazing.
Hi mike,the Donichika pass is only valid on weekend - meaning Sat or Sun, correct?
Hi Mike, can pasmo card still be used for subway in Sapporo ?
Hi Mike, where can i purchase a Kitaca card? Planned to go out of sapporo , but within hokkaido.
Hi Mike please tell us How to get to Niseko by Hokkaido Chuo Bus from Sapporo Station, thanks a lot
Hi Mike,
we have 6 nights in Sapporo later in the year and i'm looking for the best way to get around. Is there a day pass that covers, subway, streetcar etc? We'll have a JR Pass so we're covered for CTS-Sapporo Station. I'm assuming there is no pass that covers all modes. if so, would a subway pass be the best one to get around?
Thats awesome! You are correct, there is no pass that covers all transports. Each transport has its own one day pass/weekend pass with it being cheaper on the weekend/national holiday. If you use the local SAPICA IC card, it will work on the subway, bus and trams, there is also a transfer discount if you use the designated transfer stations. Yes, the subway is probably the best way to get around the Sapporo city center. If you plan to make 4 or more one way trips, the the day pass works out to be cheaper. You can also consider the semi-assisted Porocle rental bicycles if you don't have any young children. You can check it here: porocle.jp/en/
Hi Mike, which card do you suggest is the best fit if I am going to Sapporo first then Tokyo?
Hello, you can just get the Kitaca and it will work where the other major IC cards work. You can't get it anywhere else ;)
Also, Sapporo just started getting some snowfall!
@@mikeinjap Thanks for the suggestion Mike! Will be heading there on 30 Dec :)
Hi Mike, can I use the 1 day pass or Donichika in the JR Hakodate line going to Otaru and also from Sapporo City Center to Shin Chitose Airport? Thanks!
Hello there, unfortunately the Donichika pass is only for the Sapporo Subway and won't work on the JR lines. However, you can take the orange subway from Odori station to Shin Sapporo and then take the Rapid Airport to Shin Chitose Airport which saves you a little money. Sapporo Station to Shin Chitose Airport cost ¥1150. Shin-Sapporo to Shin Chitose Airport is only ¥880. Hope that helps.
@@mikeinjap thanks.
hi Mike, how about if from Airport to Hakodate take the JR or Normal train which one is better, thanks i will going this coming mai
Hello Essa, I'm not sure what you mean by JR or normal trains, there are only JR trains operating from Sapporo to Hakodate. The subway trains are only within Sapporo city.
Hi Mark, for the sapica ic card, will I be refunded the balanced amount in the card plus the 500 yen deposit or just the deposit itself? Thank you in advance.
Hi, does Suica card work in Sapporo, from train, bus, convenience store, restaurant, etc ?
Yes, the suica works wherever the kitaca is accepted. Trains, buses convenient stores, the streetcar(tram) as well. Restaurants however, not so much. They mostly accept, credit card, cash and barcode/cashless payments like Apple Pay.
@@mikeinjap excellent 👍
Can I use jr pass in Sapporo .. ?
Hello Michael, yes you can use the JR pass in Sapporo as long as you use the JR trains. Take a look at the JR Hokkaido website to see all the places you can get to with the pass.
