Hi All,
Would like to get your suggestion.
We (couple) are planning to Hokkaido for autumn scenery in early November this year. Plan to visit Hokkaido for a 12 or 13 days visit.
Currently we've not book the air ticket yet as we are thinking if it will be too long for a trip of 12 days to Hokkaido, instead maybe a Hokkaido + Tokyo Trip would be better. If Hokkaido + Tokyo trip, we are planning to fly to Hokkaido > Tokyo > KL. So we need to make up our mind before purchase the air ticket(either a return ticket to Hokkaido or 1 way tic to Hokkaido, then to Tokyo, then.. etc).
So would like to check you guys opinion, is it too long for a 12 days trip to Hokkaido only? Or its better to include Tokyo in the trip?
*If added Tokyo, we'll go for Studio Ghibli, ramen-cup studio etc. If Hokkaido only, we'll have more time for each of places like Sounkyo, niseko, etc.
*Some elaboration on what we like - we not really interested into those biscuit making class (saw some blog that there is a place in hokkaido for this), as we love to take photos (of ourselves) we are more into scenery(cant wait for that mt. yotei background shooting from niseko ground), or nice buildings (temple/old buildings) as background, or new environment city (like tokyo modern city).
I know everyone's interest in a trip may be different, but would like to get some opinion from those that visited Japan. Is 12 Days Hokkaido-only Trip is too long?
Thanks
12 days seems pretty decent for visiting Hokkaido. I would suggest to start from Hakodate in your itinerary (they have cheap and fresh seafood in morning market, couldn't find in big city like Sapporo). Along the way you can visit Otaru (small city but quite beautiful and romantic), Noboribetsu (for its onsen, go for Dai-ichi Takimotokan-they have the best) and Jigokudani, Daisetsuzan National Park (if you like to see mountain), Lake Toya, Furano (for its lavender field), and Sapporo (the big city).Would like to get your suggestion.

Tokyo itself can take around 4 days if you plan to visit popular landmark and quite pricey if you want to spend more time in big city.
Those suggestion is based on my own experience and its pretty much packed for its schedule, if you want more relax time, go for 15 days in Hokkaido
Btw flight from KL to Shin Chitose airport is around 8hours, so if you include that in your 12 days itinerary, u will mostly left with effective 10 days.
