Taxi / hire car tour Muroran / Sappora Japan
We will be cruising Diamond Princess in May with a day visit to Muroran / Sappora. Interested in information on local tours with a taxi / hire car rather than the organised bus tours or the train to Sappora.
Has anyone had a recent similar experience and details that may assist us.

I would stick around Muroran. It's about 2 hours by train each way to Sapporo, not counting the time from ship to station, about 20 minutes. A taxi charter to Sapporo I've seen priced at ¥50,000 ~.

Just noticed that your stop is 1 day. I think that means that you are getting off the boat in the morning and returning to it that night.
I would take the train and bus to Noboribetsu Onsen and go to Daiichi Takimotokan and enjoy the hot springs baths and the view. Then stroll around the town. Then head back to Muroran with time to see whatever they have there to entertain the tourists from the boat (or maybe there is more to Muroran than what I am thinking - I have not visited there or researched the place).
