These are the two vehicles listed on the official page. Choose HIACE LEAD if you travel with a dog, or LAND CRUISER BAMBA if looks matter most.
The Obihiro branch staple for traveling with dogs. It sleeps about 4, making it an easy first pick for Tokachi trips of 2-4 people.
For those who want a vehicle that still looks like a Land Cruiser but lets you sleep in it. The clearest choice for two-person trips.
The same company also runs a base at New Chitose Airport. Most of the fleet is kept there, so that base has the wider choice of vehicles.
Obihiro and New Chitose are roughly 200 km apart. Starting from the right airport can save a full day of driving. Obihiro for Tokachi and the east; New Chitose for Sapporo, Niseko and Furano.
Sam and Victor drove Hokkaido for eight days in winter and filmed the trip. It shows the roads, the snow and how early it gets dark better than any description we could write.
The YouTube channel ちょぴこ北の暮らしch rents a HIACE campervan from MOVING INN and films the first drive: from Sarabetsu in Tokachi through Hidaka, with a café stop, to an RV park in Chitose.
