Our Sapporo Travel Guide! Join us as we explore this most unusual of Japanese cities.
Sapporo is unlike any other Japanese city you'll ever visit. Not just because of its food or its climate or even its location but because of how it came to exist in the first place.
Home to Miso ramen, hairy crab, and one of the few lamb dishes you'll find in Japan, Sapporo is full of surprises and is not to be missed.
And yes of course we visited the Sapporo beer museum!

anyone else watch Attache's videos with no plans to visit the cites but just love learning about other locations?
Thanks for watching!
I have no money (make less than 10k a year) so definitely.
All the time, I just love this channel, the way it's done, Alex's voice... Just perfect.
I was like that too, but recently I pulled the trigger and I am going to Hong Kong thanks to the Attaché guide.
Was just in Sapporo in late December of last year. Full of snow and amazingly inviting. Spent too much time and money on miso ramen and don't regret a thing.
Traveling tip during the snowy winter months: Convenience stores sell rubber and metal cleat straps for your shoes, GET the rubber ones if you don't have the proper footwear and save yourself the shame of falling on your ass in front of dozens of people slipping on ice. The rubber cleats grip better than the metal ones and you won't be tap dancing through stores scratching up the floors.
If you got time Jozankei or Lake Shikotsu are great places to visit with few tourists.
Great tip! We love the little sticky heat patches that the combinis sell too. Life-saving.
oo nice tip. will be there feb 4th-8th. cant wait to freeze my ass off outside and sweat indoors lol
@Pudgy Pudge Did you read past the first two sentences? Didn't think so. It's called adding validity to the tip that followed, which you didn't read.
Travis Fraser hey thank you for the heads up 😄 I’m hoping to go visit a friend this upcoming winter in Sapporo for the first time! Hope it goes well 😁
Every time I watch an Attaché video, I'm blown away that you don't have more subs. The quality of your guides is amazing. The research, writing, cinematography and presentation is always top notch. Great job yet again.
This guy is cool, not douchy in any way, yet not dry at the same time as he's being both informative yet has personality; a right middle ground.
Why thank you!
Courtesy of military I lived a couple of years in Sapporo and Chitose. I have always remember the excellent grid system of the streets of Sapporo, hard to get lost there. The ski hill and lots of snow. Thank You!
Watching this again as we ride the train from CTS to Sapporo! As always, love the videos, Alex
That's really kind, mate, thank you.
By far the most professional and intriguing person to watch talking about Japan.
Just came back from Sapporo. In the middle of May, We were lucky to witness stunningly beautiful cherry blossoms. Really enjoy the city. Looking forward to returning to Hokkaido University in autumn for its golden gingko avenue.
The content on this channel makes me even more passionate for new journeys, traveling and getting out of my comfort zone while discovering majestic places all around the world. Keep up the great work, guys!
An elderly couple I met while travelling in Sapporo said June or July is a great time to visit. Not too hot, lots of beautiful flowers along the main Odori road. Also, for beer lovers, they hold a beer festival around those months too. I went for the Snow Festival. It was cold and enough snow to last me a few years but I enjoyed it nevertheless :)
That's a great tip. We were there in mid-November and it was pretty cold. I'm keen to return during more temperate months.
Thanks for making this video and bringing Sapporo into the spotlight. The food and beer look great.
Great place, definitely worth exploring.
Japan is defintely next on my travel list
It will absolutely be worth your time
But don't think Japan is like you see in manga, anime, and those beautiful outdated stories you find on the internet. Not all people here polite, you still have to look to not be "mistakenly" cheated on the stores, like different prices on cashier than on shelf, not including discounts if there are etc. Look after your belongings as in any other countries. Look out for cars driving crazy and on red light especially in Sapporo. People constantly "pulling" their noses instead blowing into tissues. Just don't expect too much. Think of it as about any other country in Europe for example.
So glad you made a video about Sapporo. I have been, including during the famous Sapporo Snow Festival. It is great place to visit during anytime of the year. Also, the underground walkways are awesome, especially when it is snowing outside. Anyone who visits should do a day trip to Otaru and some other places, too. Including the Nikka Whisky Distillery, less than an hour outside of Sapporo by train.
im going to be in sapporo a week....any other must see places up there? im planning a day trip to hakodate
Yeah we were trying to squeeze in a trip to the Nikka distillery (I have a bottle of it on my desk) but sadly we ran out of time.
Ahh yes finally! Can't wait to visit Sapporo! Thank you for this brilliant video 😁
It's a great spot, you'll love it.
You forgot about the soup curry, another famous local dish, seriously if you love winter sports its a great place to base youself
We had it, loved it, but didn't have time to cover it, sadly.
Great Video! And I totally agree that Japanese ATMs do go to sleep way too early!
Yeah they really do have a mind of their own!
Just came back from Sapporo in August after spent living for 1 year there and already miss that place... Much better city than Tokyo imho
It's a fantastic city, tons of character.
There for JET?
@@KennethSee No, i came to Sapporo as student of MEXT programme for Japanese learner.
Beside, i don't know what JET is... hahaha
An episode I didnt know I really wanted, thank you so much for this!
Btw, please go to Prauge :)
I know this city from Chanatip, a Thai soccer player who is playing in Sapporo team now. I wish to visit this city someday.
You should, it's a great city!
When a 15 minute video feels like a 1 minute, you know it's good
Ha, thanks!
Thank you for video about Sapporo!
I really like your video vibe unhurried
cognitive and very informative. This is amazing city. I would like to visit it, may be next year.
Great video as usual but is it just me or is the audio volume going down and up and some dialogue sounds muffed especially during the shots shown when you talk straight to the camera? Hard to hear and have to lower and raise my volume a few times as well.
Just you 😥
Not just you. The audio dubbing could’ve been better. But it’s probably the only concern in what is otherwise an amazing show.
No you're right, we didn't the audio right on this one, sorry about that.
oh man, dude I love these videos so much
it's like the main goal of my life right now to go to japan
Do what you can to get there, it will change your life.
GO! dont wait...i went this past october and im going again in february....its everything everyone says it is...and more.
SWEEEETTTT!!!!! Glad to see you like Japan!
LOVE Japan!
You have one of the best travel channels.
Thanks Sean!
I've been hoping you would make a Sapporo video as I want to visit there on my next vacation. I was actually in Tokyo when you filmed this so it did put a smile on my face to think we were both in Japan at the same time. BTW, the ATMs of 7-11 are the best and I've never had an issue with them so Lawson and Familymart are just trying to catch up. Thanks for the great video and info as always.
Ha, that's so cool that we were in Tokyo at the same time. 7-11 ATMs are by far the most....consistent. I think that's the fairest way to put it.
Your videos are simply amazing.
Love Sapporo. Some of the best food I've had in all of Japan. I think you might want to re-upload the video, though. The audio mixing is all over the place.
Yeah we dropped the ball on the audio, not sure what happened.
hahaha, did you feel comfortable talking on that busy subway? Great vid as always.
No. It went against everything I believe in as a traveler, especially in Japan.
I hope you get to do a second volume of the travel book!
We're still figuring out if enough people want a second volume for us to cover the costs. Hopefully we'll have some news soon.
I heard that story about ATM issues. Thanks for validating it.
100% true. They can be very fickle.
I love Sapporo city.
It's a wonderful city.
Great guide! Makes me want to go there (as most of your videos do). Wishlist for future videos: Seoul and Taipei. Thanks!
Seoul and Taipei are very high on the list, for sure!
I recommend taking a bus from the airport so you can sit.
the train from the airport has less than 20 reserved seats so you have to stand for 40 mins.
We were able to sit in both directions without reserved seats but perhaps we were lucky.
Awesome video! I have to go. Great to see Lindsey featuring too!
Thanks! And yes, Lindsey did a great job!
Was just there a couple weeks ago. Loved it.
It's such a top spot, I loved it.
@@attachetravel ...It's actually and easily my #1 favorite city in Japan now. No pretentiousness of Tokyo (Tokyo vibe is very much like LA to me).. has the openness and friendliness of Osaka; but in a much more mature, laid-back and grown-up manner (Osaka and Sapporo is very similar; but, to me, Osaka is better for younger 20-30 year olds, and Sapporo feels better for older 30-40+ crowds)... Best food I've had in Japan bar-none.. best music venues and artists in Japan (and the world I've been told)... best beer.. best confectionary/sweets/desserts.. best snacks.. and the list goes on. I know it's bad to compare and shill the word "best".. but, it's my secret and unpopular (to most gaijins) favorite destination now.
You’re videos are awesome well made. Keep doing you!
Thanks Michael!
How wonderful and informative, as always.
Thanks very much!
always excited when a new Attache video comes out. Hope to see you in India again! Also, you said NYC would be covered more in depth in this season, right? Cant wait!
Yes we really need to get back to India soon, we loved our experience there.
We'll be following up NYC soon.
Northern Japan getting some love! Too bad you didn't venture outside of the cities. My favorite parts of Hokkaido are the vast outdoors. There are so many national parks to explore and vast hilly farmland.
The music for this video is on point!
Great video! One of the best places I've visited in Japan!
Had to go back to this video haha its so crazy good!
Any day there is a new Attache is a good day
Thanks Raeed!
going to sapporo,niseko,otaru,Hakodate this December 26!
Great video like always!
Thanks!
I literally been to every one of these locations when I visited Sapporo
Awesome video 😊 very informative 😊 thanks!
Thanks!
Oh susukino...
Great video!
Thanks!
Love this! Thanks!
finally a new episode!
Thanks for watching!
You guys should do the following cities when you have time: Istanbul, Vienna, Madrid, Chicago. Thanks!
Been to all of those cities and love them. Our list of of potential cities is very, very long but we'll slowly get to all of them if people keep watching.
how fitting that chicago is the last city you mention, because its quite possibly the last city he'll ever be alive in again.....because its filled with gangs and crime.
Please come again!!
Love your video!
Thanks Ben!
I hope “The Attaché” volume 2 will be out soon!
We're still seeing if enough people would want a Volume 2. Hopefully we'll make a decision soon.
Although I love all the videos, the last few have had a travel porn quality to it. Big on visuals but lacking on what attracted me to this site. It was the kinda every man style Alex had. Glad to see this video had more of his personality and humor back. And also, I love the Rundown !! Sounds silly, but wanna know how much a Big Mac costs on the other side of the world, lol.
Thanks Michael, that's valuable feedback. We try to balance the travel porn with the practical info. Some cities lend themselves to a specific format so we have to tinker as we go.
In love with this place💥
Awesome as always. One question though. I thought you had a video on Taiwan but I haven't been able to locate it. I was sure it was you. Saw it a couple of years ago while we were planning our first visit and we are going back in April and I wanted to see it again. Sorry if I'm wrong and it was someone else.
Thanks John. We haven't done an episode in Taiwan yet although it's very high on the list.
Love this video! Might visit Sapporo next year. ^_^
3:30 - 3:40. Well said, my man. . . .
Tipping is not offensive. But many companies tell their employees to refuse it. Because we think that providing customers with good services is our honor. At a traditional place like RYO-TEI, tipping is acceptable. It's called "KOKORO ZUKE". You should do it when having a party or ceremony at RYO-TEI. You need to put bills into an envelope which is available at stationery shops.
Ultimate intro !
Love your guy's vids! give me a ton of ideas on where i want to travel to!
Thanks!
Another beautiful episode.. I really want to know how annoyed the people were when you were filming and speaking in the public trains and metros..
It went against every fibre of my being as a protocol-centric traveller. But people laughed with us afterwards, they were good sports. It's definitely not something I'd make a habit of though, especially in Japan. We're usually very self-aware and unobtrusive on our shoots - I can't imagine changing that.
Love the part about the temperamental ATMs 😂
I'll be here soon
heartwarming
Thanks!
Great video 🙏🏻
Thanks!
Hi. I'll be travelling to Vladivostock with the Trans-Siberian train next winter. Before going back to France I plan a side trip to Japan where I've never been before. For a 3 day trip would you recommend going to Tokyo or Sapporo?
Beautiful, smartly narrated video. Very enjoyable. By the way, my bank advised me to change my PIN before visiting Japan because their machines only support 4 digits. Maybe that was your issue at Lawson?
Love Hokkaido! Can't wait to go back! Good video, but as with previous videos you have to do a better job on the audio. Way too much background noise.
Agreed, we definitely had some audio issues on this ep. Apologies.
The best service I’ve ever received was from no tipping restaurants. Restaurants should simply pay their workers fairly and include the cost in the price of the food.
Your video is very helpfull and very good. But I'm having difficulties with the sound of the video or maybe my tv is not fully functional or your voice maybe quite tone down. But hey, great video
im going to sapporo in february...smack in the dead of winter....by train...alone.....pray for me lol
Do come back and tell us how it goes!
ando1135 You’re going to have a great time 👍
very nice movie!
Sapporo, the mountainous northern city of Japan (on the island of Hokkaido) is not just a destination in the winter time. Summer time offers visitors with loads of seafood (crab fans should rejoice) and comfortable weather to walk in as they visit the Sapporo brewery, Nijo Market and Tanukikoji Shopping Street that spans a few blocks long. Let me take you on a tour with me this week in the latest "8 Countries in 6 Weeks" episode.

Please do a guide on edinburgh, Scotland during the festival
I'm very interested in this too, looks like an awesome city.
Great idea, we'll see what we can do.
What do you want to know? Crowd, crowd, crowd.
I was lucky enough to spend 2 months in Edinburgh this year. I absolutely fell in love with this city. Also, got a glimpse of the Fringe festival which I highly recommend. 😄
札幌も外国人が多く来るようになったよな。
Please do a travel guide for Manila and/or Cebu :)
Is japan only about food and some temples and tall buildings ??
we have to cancel our family trip as the earthquake happen 3 days before our flight. hope we can meet Sapporo next time.
It's incredible how quickly the region recovered. I hope the wind eventually takes you back to Hokkaido.
Nice video^^ ! after 15 years here is in the tourism industry, seeing the evolution of the business, I may say that sightseeing taxi driver or guide (Japanese) do now accept tips, of course they may refuse at first but it became really commun, specially since the Boum of NISEKO hahahah which spoiled and destroy the beauty of Niseko in less than 10 years...
OMG!!! I was just thinking of you!!
Ha, I know, Lee. I know.
Interesting choice of location, hope to be there this coming February
Should have been pointed out to the fantastic nature in Hakkaido and the value of renting a car and travel the beautiful island.
I love your Vlogs, man. Very informative and upbeat. You should have a one-hour weekly travel show on CNN (or Fox News if you're conservative). That said, I can't wait to hear your 2-cents on Bali.
That's very kind, thank you!
thanks!
You should come to the Finger Lakes, or Rochester.
We know the considerable quality gap between the sushi sold at the prepared food section of the grocery stores versus those served by sushi restaurants in the US , but what about those in Japan, where making a bad piece of sushi is almost sacrilegious? Let me take you on a food tour in Sapporo as I devour sushi in a traditional market and at a supermarket and compare the quality gap between the two channels.

Great video . What's the name of the rap esque song used in the video ?
A great movie !!
Could you please add a "See and Do" section to your videos?
It dosent take 12h today... you can take the shinkansen to shin hakodate and then take the normal train from there...
Requesting Kyoto and Toronto guides.
Is there Uber or ridesharing in Japan?
Nevermind! The video answered my question.
(They don’t.)
Nice vid!!! 👌
11:20 song??
明日はどっちだ RYO the Skywalker
Japan 😊
Love the video..is Japan mostly a cash society or are major credit cards widely accepted?
It is ABSOLUTELY a cash society. I've never been, but this is something that is often stated. The japanese have an aversion to credit cards.
Very cash based. Despite the massive amount of automation you'll encounter (restaurants, transit, etc...) many of those machines will be cash only and cash will be the preferred way of paying almost everywhere.
It’s changing as we get closer to the 2020 Olympics, but cash is still very much preferred.
As people have said, it's still pretty cash centric BUT I've noticed a marked increase in the number of outlets that accept credit cards and the variety of cards they accept. You'll have no problem using any type of card at any of the major convenience stores.
@@TheMrJourneyer let's hope there's no terrorist attacks just to enact a scene from Akira.
Now you have to go to Okinawa! Thank you for this amazing video :)
We loved Okinawa which we still have a few videos from there to upload on our channel, but we have uploaded Shuri Castle from Okinawa on our channel😁
I love Okinawa, I'm there often. We really should do an episode there.
Please do Warsaw Poland
