Nice experience enjoying the sights and sounds. Lisa and her assistant were very helpful through the trip.
Shao-san was our guide for the day. Tour was conducted in Japanese, Chinese and English all by himself. Most scenic stops are between 30 - 60 mins. The highlight of the trip was Noboribetsu Jigokudani Valley and Lake Toya. The lunch queue (Lake Toya stop) was longer as there were some restaurants that close on Monday. To maximize my time at Lake Toya, I bought lunch from convenience store instead and had it by the lake. The tour may feel rushed but reasonable given the number of stops in the itinerary. There were sufficient stops for toilet break too. Useful for traveler with limited time, save the hassle of navigating the public transport and language barrier. It was an enjoyable trip.
