Hi Guys,
Intending to go Hokkaido for snowboarding and winter festivals in February next year and finally took the time to come up with an actual itinerary. I have never snowboard before.
Planning to make Sapporo my base for about week and do day trip to both Asahikawa and Otaru.
How much do you think I should cater for meals? Is S$20 dollars per meal sufficient (About 60 dollars a day)?
For JR trains, I'm planning to get the flexible 4 days JR Hokkaido pass and use it to cover traveling to Asahikawa, Hakodate, Noboribetsu and back to New Chitose Airport. The rest of the short traveling (lower cost fares after checking out expedia) between cities will be individual tickets.
After budgeting everything, it seems that this trip will set me back, approximately, at about 4 - 4.5K.
Would appreciate some help from the gurus here on giving me some advises on maximizing the experience of my trip and the potential pitfalls to avoid.
Thanks.
