The Resort
 Niseko, located on the western coast of the island of Hokkaido in northern Japan, is Japan's premium ski and snow-board resort and is renowned for some of the best powder conditions to be found anywhere in the world. It is the largest of Hokkaido's ski areas with 3 inter-linked world-class resorts, Annapuri, Hirafu and Higashiyama, and some 47 kilometres of slopes with many kilometre plus runs.
Niseko offers spectacular skiing and snow boarding opportunities to the novice, intermediate or expert, all backed up by an English speaking support team based at the resort.
Boasting uncrowded conditions and a great village atmosphere to rival that of any European resort, Niseko provides the perfect base for your Japanese winter adventure. And of course, after a hard day on the slopes you'll be able to relax in one of the open-air hot spring baths and gaze up at the stars!
The three resorts are serviced by 38 lifts, all with one common lift pass. Lifts are open daily from 8.30am to 8.30pm offering incredible value including night skiing.
Onward...
Why bring your holiday to a close as soon as your time at the resort is over? There are all manner of different options available and a huge variety of destinations to explore. Transfer by plane back to either Tokyo or Osaka is included but first you might like to stop off in Sapporo, Hokaido's cosmopolitan regional capital. We can provide you with accommodation and our info-pack which is full of sightseeing hints and ideas.
Perhaps you would like to spend time in the Tokyo area, or fly to Osaka to visit Kyoto and the Kansai region. Just let us know what you'd like to do and see and we can organise value for money accommodation and transport for you anywhere in Japan.
