QUOTE(RegentCid @ Dec 6 2019, 11:48 AM) Depends. If you plan going Sapporo + Otaru + Furano only then take train also can. If you plan adding Lake Toya + Hakodate + Noboribetsu + then car rental will be the best. Thanks for the information, is there any other regions in hokkaido that you can recommended for travel via train

Would like to ask we will be renting a car for the whole 14 days in hokkaido. We plan to head to sapporo and stay for three nights to catch cherry blossom. Is this sufficient time or should we spend extra day?
Our third day plan to head to otaru. Is it better to drive or take train there? Will be a day trip unless worthwhile to stay there
Thanks

QUOTE(cute_boboi @ Jan 7 2020, 11:01 AM) On our two weeks Hokkaido trip, we arranged to pickup rental car on the day we arrived, and immediate drove out of Sapporo. Returned after ~10 days and returned the car. After that, spent few days in Sapporo and a day-trip train to Otaru. Our opinion and plan is we do not need a car in Sapporo city and Otaru. We spend the last few days in Sapporo rather than in the beginning due to not going to carry all the stuff to buy and tour around Hokkaido. Parking in Sapporo costs $ while most (if not all) outside are free parking. Also less few days car rental cost.  Thanks for the feedback. We are landing on 12 may According to forecast it should be blooming a week before. Hence why we need to be in sapporo. The alternative would be the rent the car when we are leaving sapporo. Would it be possible to share your itinerary any tips would be useful. Plan to visit hakodate, norobeitsu, biei furano

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Jan 8 2020, 09:56 PM) That would be almost all around Hokkaido already. Hakodate is South, Noboribetsu is in central while Biei and Furano is in the East.Unless you have a lot of days there, I would suggest you keep your travel to a few nearby cities and attractions. Car rental would be more suited to if you are travelling to outskirts. Like mentioned, if you plan to go around Sapporo/Otaru and Chitose, then bus/train would be good enough. Will be there about 13 days Our itinerary 12thSapporo, reach in the morning 13th sapporo, 14th Otaru(stay sapporo) 15th asahikawa, 16th asahidake onsen, 17th biei, 18th furano, 19th Noboribetsu, 20th hakodate, 21th hakodate, 22th yunokawa onsen 23th lake toya onsen, 24th lake shikotsuko We fly n 25fh Only on 15th will be driving. Will this be to stretch?

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Jan 9 2020, 09:04 AM) Yes. You will be running all around touch and go at most attractions and spend time driving to the next. Suggest you plan around central and south side or central and east side. Thanks Where would you recommend I spend my time at Cut out hakodate?

QUOTE(ybtan @ Jan 15 2020, 12:56 PM) hi all, im going to Kyushu in late March for 8D7N. here's my plan, kindly give comments if you have a better idea Day 1 - touched down Fukuoka and drive straight to Nagasaki. Explore Nagasaki and stay there. Day 2 - Unzen & Kumamoto. Stays Kumamoto Day 3 - Miyazaki Day 4 - Takachiho gorge & mount Aso. Stays Aso Day 5 - Yufuin & Beppu Day 6 - Fukuoka Day 7 - Fukuoka Day 8 - fly back Extremely tight. Takachiho gorge and aso is far. I think you need to go gorge from kumamoto not aso. Unzen and Obama is for hotspring.
