2025 Tomakomai Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in February)

When in Hokkaido, my husband brought me to Loghouse Bibi Wagyu Restaurant for dinner. It was the perfect place for couples as it offers a unique dining experience in a place made of wood logs. I mean how often do we get to dine in a log house, back home in Singapore? The restaurant was quite near the airport, making it convenient to navigate and self drive to the place. The ambience was warm, cozy and somewhat romantic. Food wise, Log house Bibi restaurant offers amazingly good beef platters. The meat was juicy and melted in our mouths. Servers would also help to grill our meat, using the charcoal grill, which helped to add more flavour to the meat. Price is a little steep but definitely worth it for the quality of our wagyu beef. It's definitely an unforgettable meal for us both at Loghouse Bibi and much needed quality time over a meal! #valentinescape

During our last trip to Hokkaido, we decided to rent a car to get around in Japan since we had a 18 month kid in tow. After we picked up our rental car at Chitose Airport branch, we drove about 10 mins to the Log House Wagyu Bibi Restaurant to have our first meal in Hokkaido. Known for their juicy, tender wagyu beef and more, this Japanese barbeque restaurant is one of the must tries once you touch down in Hokkaido. The interior is warm and cosy and it resembles a log cabin! The prices are not cheap but given the quality of the beef, it was well worth it! Go during lunch as it will be more friendly on your pockets. This place is accessible only by car so do take note of this. Its located next to a river where you can take nice photos as well.

Depending on the season, the pony show held at Palazzo Vega Pony House is open to the public for practice. Unlike regular pony shows, it is just practice, so the horses mainly perform repetitive movements, but the performance is cute in a way that is different from regular shows. #Themepark #NorthernHorsePark #SnowScenery

Cape Chikyu at the End of the World and Tomakomai at Dusk On the fifth day, I took the Hokuto Limited Express and got off at Higashi-Muroran Station, then took the Muroran Main Line to Bokoi Station. The road to Cape Chikyu was long, and it was snowing heavily. I was the only one on the mountain road. When I arrived at Cape Chikyu, it was still snowing heavily, and visibility was poor. Fortunately, the sky cleared up after a while. On Cape Chikyu, you can see the curvature of the earth. A cruise ship in the distance slowly sails on the water, looking so small compared to the sea. Muroran is an industrial city. On the other side of Cape Chikyu, you can see the industrial area with thick smoke. Tomakomai is a quiet city with few tourists. It is also an industrial city with a very developed shipping industry. Standing on the breakwater, you can see the whole city, the huge red chimneys, the port full of fishing boats, and the quiet seagulls. I regret not waiting for nightfall. I could only wait for the night of Tomakomai at the station, the train illuminated by the sunset, and the lonely chimney under the blue tone.

This city in Hokkaido is really very niche! So niche that maybe no one knows about it! On the way back from Noboribetsu to Sapporo, I passed by here and got off the bus for a stroll! No one! There really is no one here! You can walk for a long time without seeing a person! It's really a very desolate city! There's a feeling of being forgotten! It's very suitable for people with social phobia to check in here! I ate at a popular online restaurant, the specialty here is Arctic shell! This is not the same species as the red Arctic shell we often eat! I feel that the Arctic shell here is more delicious! Very crispy and refreshing taste! Highly recommended!
