This fast 3-hour private shore excursion from Hakodate Port is perfect if you want two of the city’s top icons in a short time. Start at Goryokaku Tower for a stunning star-fort panorama, take a quick walk in Goryokaku Park (with an optional look toward the former Hakodate Magistrate’s Office), then head to Mount Hakodate for sweeping views over the bay before returning to the port. Because time is tight, we keep stops efficient and adjust on the day for traffic and ropeway lines.
43-9 Goryokaku-cho, Hakodate, Japan
Zoom across the city to the Goryokaku observation tower. Look down at the colossal, star-shaped Western citadel where the Samurai era ended, and visit the Hakodate Bugyosho (Magistrate's Office), a beautifully reconstructed Samurai government building inside the park.
Mt. Hakodate, Hakodate, Japan
Take in the breathtaking panorama of the hourglass-shaped city perfectly squeezed between two seas. While the ropeway offers a classic ascent, it can experience wait times during peak hours. In such cases, your private taxi can drive you directly to the summit instead, ensuring a seamless and time-efficient journey!
The driver will be waiting at exit of the port holding your name board.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
