Does anyone know if there is any direct coach from Kutchan / Niseko to Hakodate? Or only by JR train?

Yes, there is.

Been there before.

If it’s a weekday, have to go early morning to get the tickets for the Chicken Noodle & cup noodle activity.

I have a Japanese Lawson account that allows me to book in advance.
Let me know if u need me to help.

Went last Dec. we only did the cup noodle activity and got the tickets when we went in the morning. But if you want to do the chicken noodle activity, I suggest you pre-book. We were there quite early and most of the sloes were taken. The only slots available was late afternoon. We were interested to do that so it was ok. But if u go specifically for that, then better book the slot you want. We just did the cup noodles. That has little to no queue.

Thanks Dimitri_can for going the extra mile to buy the Ghibli Museum tickets for me at no extra cost. Very much appreciated. My family of 5 enjoyed the museum visit very much.


Japan is indeed a nice place for holiday!

Hi happy to be mum,
I went to Yokohama Cup Noodle Museum in November, it was a Monday and I was there at about 10.30 - 10.45am, they open at 10am! I thought I was actually quite early, but I was wrong!!! There are SO MANY People, and majority are not tourist, they are japanese! Oh my...
For the chicken noodle which you will make the noodle from dough yourself, its already FULLY BOOKED for that day... so i believed might have to buy the tickets in advance, as for the normal cup noodle activity which you design the cup and chose the ingredients, they have slot for that too, we have to go to the counter to get the available time slot ticket, we got the 11.45am time slot! So i believe its always wise to go there early as the Japanese are really punctual!
You can also go to Yokohama Chinatown to walk around after that which we did after that, the wang fu jing shui jian bao is really good!!!

Among the various chinatowns in Japan, Yokohama seems the most established and crowded with shoppers. I like it the best.
