yfc1 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Hi, I was wondering if there's any local packages for ski trips in Niseko, departing from Tokyo. If so, could you please tell me where I can obtain such info. Many thanks Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 many, many, many... Look up JTB website. ANA website, or any local Japanese travel agent website. Of course you'll have to sort through the Japanese... Link to post Share on other sites

SKI 15 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 There are other places based in Niseko that will look after things for you - contact some of these http://www.snowjapan.com/e/hotel/index-hokkaido.html Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Yes thats what we are saying Thursday, and you know that. Id book my trip through here rather than package it up. A package might be cheaper but if you do it through here youll know what you are getting 100%. If you plan on going during the busy times,,, start to think about asking at least if the places have space. some places might have sold lots to travel companies. You dont have to fly to hokkaido to get good snow though. Nigata and Nagano are very close as well. Link to post Share on other sites
misorano 1 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Beginner: Go to a travel agent that displays a ANA or JAL logo. Cheapest option is to book a flight + 1 night hotel deal in Sapporo. Use the night in Sapporo either on the first or last night. Then book accommodation at either one of the hotels listed on this site or by other means. You have can have up to 14 days between flights. The flight and hotel deals starts at about 23,000yen, more of course in holiday season. Link to post Share on other sites
