Had the best time exploring Sapporo with Ryo. We had exchanged emails ahead of time and he was able to customize the tour based on what we wanted to do in town. It was the perfect way to spend our first full day in Sapporo (and Hokkaido in general) as Ryo left us with plenty of tips and recommendations that we used for the rest of our time in the city. Felt like hanging out with an old friend by the end of our tour.

Very good overview of the city! Thanks Ryuki!
This was a great first day tour to get the layout of the city and some out of the way highlights. Ryuki was an excellent guide, and he took us to one of our favorite stops in Hokkaido: Asahiyama Memorial Park. The autumn leaves were at their peak, and the walk was lovely. We were able to see a mountain-top view of the city there as well. Along with other stops at the Hokkaido Shrine and the 1972 Winter Olympic Ski Jump, we had an amazing lunch at a ramen place for the special miso ramen. This is a terrific first tour of Sapporo when you only have a few hours.
