About This Transfer
New Chitose Airport is the main gateway to Hokkaido, Japan’s northern island known for its powder snow, fresh seafood, and wide-open landscapes. The airport sits about 50 kilometres southeast of Sapporo, and a private transfer gets you to your hotel in roughly 60 minutes via the Dō Expressway.
The drive from CTS to Sapporo takes you through Hokkaido’s gentle countryside — wide fields, birch forests, and on clear days, distant mountain silhouettes. In winter the landscape is blanketed in snow and the road is well-maintained. Our drivers are experienced with Hokkaido’s winter conditions and all vehicles are fitted with studded snow tyres from November to April.
Whether you’re visiting for the famous Sapporo Snow Festival in February, the lavender fields of nearby Furano in summer, or year-round attractions like the Sapporo Beer Museum and Odori Park, starting your trip with a relaxed private transfer sets the right tone. The service is especially valuable for skiers heading to Niseko or Rusutsu — we can arrange direct transfers to the ski resorts as well.
