I thoroughly enjoyed Shiretoko!

Thank you very much for your help over the two days! This was my second time in Shiretoko, but last time the weather was bad, so I couldn't see Lake Mashu or go hiking in the Shiretoko Five Lakes. Thanks to you considering our requests and planning multiple times, we had a wonderful trip to Shiretoko. The guide maintained a comfortable distance, allowing us to relax and enjoy ourselves. Next time, I would like to go see the drift ice!２日間、大変お世話になりました！
今回は2度目の知床でしたが、前回は天気が悪くて見られなかった摩周湖や知床五湖のハイキングなどに連れて行っていただきました。こちらの要望に答えるため、何度もプランを考えていただいたおかげで、大満喫の知床旅行となりました。
程よい距離感をたもってガイドをしてもらえたので、リラックスして楽しめました。
次回は流氷を見に行きたいと思います！

Our guide, Takky, had a warm and wonderful demeanor. We were able to explore the great outdoors in a way we had never experienced before, and both my son and I had an incredibly satisfying adventure. I hope to have this experience again in the summer or at another time. I absolutely recommend this guide, and I would love to participate again and recommend it to my friends. Thank you very much.ガイドのタッキーさんの表情が柔らかくとても素敵な方でした。
今までに体験したことのない大自然の中を散策させていただき、
息子も私も大満足な冒険が出来ました。
次は夏などにも体験ができたらと思います。
絶対におすすめなガイドさんで、また参加したいし、友達にもお勧めしたいです。
ありがとうございました。

This tour will definitely be a core memory that will never be forgotten. Taki San speaks very good English and is well aware and informed of the history of the Eastern Hokkaido region aside from being super friendly and hospitable. He made sure that I enjoyed every second of it. I am happy that I wont be worried anymore if I ever come back to Eastern Hokkaido as Peacan Kikaku is the answer.

Really well done and I highly recommend this tour. Just keep a look out for Brown Bear Footprints 😉

A Memorable Hokkaid Experience with Veltra and Taki

Four of us visited Hokkaido for the first time in April 2024. After spending a few days exploring the vibrant city of Sapporo, we ventured out to Abashiri—a more remote, rural part of the region. Wanting to make the most of our time and truly experience the natural beauty of the area, we booked a day-long tour through Veltra.

After spending a few days exploring the vibrant city of Sapporo, we ventured out to Abashiri—a more remote, rural part of the region. Wanting to make the most of our time and truly experience the natural beauty of the area, we booked a day-long tour through Veltra.

From start to finish, the experience far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Taki, was exceptional—knowledgeable, organized, and incredibly attentive to both safety and enjoyment. The day was filled with unforgettable moments, from snowshoeing through serene landscapes to spotting local wildlife. Taki's passion for the area and his thoughtful guidance truly made the tour special.

We cannot recommend this tour—and especially Taki—highly enough. If you're visiting Abashiri and want a meaningful, well-curated adventure, this is absolutely the way to go.
