it's illegal to bring fruits.. but i've managed to smuggle one whole box of peach and two packs of grapes through taiwan immigration (on separate occasions) but didn't get caught upon arrival in Malaysia.
*
I'm used to bring fruits into Malaysia such as grapes, oranges, strawberries etc from Taiwan, HK, China etc...

But I will go CRAZY if I see any good juicy fruits with cheaper rate (comparing with Malaysia)...

Thinking to bring back A LOT... maybe not a box la... juz a small box that able to fit in 40L backpack...

I know mango is restricted from oversea... wonder why was tat!?

Just wondering...

Booked a flight to Sapporo next year March for a short trip...

My bad without looking properly at the arrival date and left 3 days exactly from my departure date. Also my partner cannot take so many off days... Anyway, just around RM530 for return flight for 2 person for AAX.

So, let's see what can we do for the best out of these three days... Need some of your suggestion...

Day 1: Midnight flight to Sapporo

Day 2:
Arrived bout 8:30AM local time
- Plan to do half day skiing at nearby location, any suggestion?
- Any onsen nearby worth a visit?
- at night, if time permit, planning to do King Crab buffet at Nanda.

Day 3:
Otaru - One day trip

Day 4:
Any suggestion?

Day 5:

Morning 8:45am flight home ... arrive KL 5PM? doh.gif

Wondering if RM1500 is enough for these short trip for 1 person? Exclude accommodation with breakfast buffet and flights.

I had just booked and paid Tokyo Dome Hotel Sapporo at a very wowed price for all my nights... ^^

Thanks for the feedback. Let me check out the area and see see...

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Sep 2 2015, 08:51 PM)
Yes, There are one Ski located nearby Sapporo City. It was called Sapporo Kokusai.
One hour Bus ride from JR Sapporo Station.

Sapporo City does't have any Onsen worth to visit.
*
Cool... Will lookup this Sapporo Kokusai and input into the trip.

QUOTE(merci @ Sep 2 2015, 09:53 PM)
Wow! You managed to book the Tokyo Dome. How much per night?
The location is good since it's just opposite the odori park.
*
I managed to booked the High floor facing Odori Park - Odori View... I can't says its very cheap but for that particular room I booked. I m guess that price is okay and reasonably cheap. Plus it comes with seafood buffet breakfast...
Yesterday Expedia got Hotel 75% offers (not sure whether mine was 75% or around XX% but got offer la) + my UOB got additional 10% offers... so i think its quite cheap thumbup.gif ^^

Kokousai Ski Price List

Based on the price list, I need to pay a half day pass + rental of ski equipment?
That's mean: 3700 yen + 5200 yen = 8900 yen

Thinking Ski and Hot Spring Bathing Package, worth it ah? How to go from SKi to the hot spring area? pass by?

QUOTE(ahchak @ Sep 8 2015, 10:39 PM)
RM272 per person?! How come so cheap?

Launching price last month... some forumers also got this price ler...

Highly recommended to go Rususut or Niseko ..snow powder...the best place for snowboard..recommended only January and February ...lots of snow...Its take 2-3 hour from Chitose Airport...

http://rusutsu.co.jp/
*
When I googled, I do come across Niseko. I m heading there in mid-March. Preferred some where closed to Sapporo as we dont have so much time to wandering around...

Anyway, I'm looking at the website now... Let's see how it goes ... And Thank you for your suggestion!
