Sapporo may be internationally recognized for its beer, but the brewery is only the beginning of what this Hokkaido capital city has to offer. Gain a sky-high vantage point of the elongated Odori Park and neighboring mountains to the west with a ride to the top of Sapporo TV Tower. Sapporo Underground Pedestrian Space provides visitors with shops, restaurants and shelter from the elements directly underneath the city.

People travel from far and wide to Noboribetsu to soak in mineral-rich, sulfurous hot springs. Not far from the city is the main source of this water — Hell Valley. A must-see attraction, this volcanic crater offers pleasant hiking trails through the forest and an observation deck for great views of rising hot steam and spouting geysers. A popular souvenir from Noboribetsu is bath salts.

The hotel may request the credit card in order to: a) place a monetary hold of US$50-200; or b) hold for incidental, security or other charges. By booking, I acknowledge having received notice of this potential charge and accept that Rovia™ recommends a credit card rather than a debit or bank card be used in the event the hotel requests the card. I understand that any such request made by the hotel is outside of the control of WorldVentures™ and Rovia and is strictly a hotel policy. Should I have questions concerning the hotel’s policy, I accept responsibility for contacting the hotel independent of Rovia or WorldVentures.

Pricing for children is based on their age at the time of travel and may be subject to additional terms and conditions of individual hotels and all-inclusive resorts. Also, pricing for children can vary, and may be higher than pricing for adults.
