Apologies for my tardy response. Getting back into the swing of things after holidays is always difficult! We had an amazing time and loved the Resort Inn Chitose. The owner was magnificent, food was fantastic and the room and location was great. Exactly what we needed after 2 busy weeks travelling in Japan. Thank you for organising this skiing part of our holiday. It was all very seamless and your communication was great!
So great in fact that once we know our daughter’s schedule with Uni we’re looking to book again for next year. I’ll be in touch.
Hi Hiro,
Once again we had a fabulous time in Shiga Kogen. Everything went very smoothly and we are very happy.
Thank you for your service.
Next year we are considering going to Hokkaido.
Do you have any packages for Furano or Tomamu?
We are also looking into doing a 5-7 day ” Ski/ snowboard small group tour”
Do you have anything that would fit this ?
We are truly grateful to Powder Ski Japan for arranging such a wonderful ski trip for us, our friends, and our family.
Staying at Naeba Prince Hotel was extremely convenient. The facilities were excellent, and the ski-in ski-out access made everything so easy. We could return to our room anytime for a short break or to grab anything we needed. The hotel staff were also very kind and welcoming.
Snow conditions this year were fantastic, with soft, powdery snow. Even our 2-year-old was able to enjoy learning how to ski, which made the experience especially memorable for us as a family.
We also loved the little surprises along the way ? seeing a fox on the ski slopes, spotting a wild wolf from the gondola on our way back from Kagura, and enjoying the beautiful fireworks at the resort. These moments made our trip incredibly exciting and unforgettable for the children.
We highly recommend Powder Ski Japan to families looking for a truly special ski holiday.
Thank you again for all your wonderful arrangements. We truly appreciate your support and hope to travel with you again in the future.
Thank you again for your expertise in planning our 2025 snowboarding trip. My wife and I had a great time, and we particularly appreciated your help getting our lift passes sorted while we were in Japan and your patience with the various date changes during the planning process. We look forward to working with you again for our next trip.
We had a wonderful time! The weather and snow conditions were absolutely perfect!
It was very nice to have the opportunity to walk with Yoshi Wada San & company, they were welcoming and great!
Hello Hiro!
We just got back and had an amazing time! Nozawa is such a great little town for a snow holiday.
My two girls had a ball skiing. It was excellent to stay at Chitosekan again too. The lady owner is so lovely and just as I remember.
We will definitely return and I will recommend you to anyone looking to book a snow holiday.
Thank you for looking after us Hiro you did a great job!
From O
We really enjoyed Zao Onsen. The hotel location is great and the deal good value. There is a lot of snow this year.
We’re thinking of going to Appi kogen in 2026. One week at Appi and one week at Zao, around the first two weeks of February (dates to be confirmed).
It would be great if you can recommend any good value deals closer to the time.
Hi Hiro,
We returned to NZ on Monday thanks.
We had an incredible time as we always do when we go to Japan.
The snowboarding at Alts and Shizukuishi was fantastic.
We didn’t get much new snow at Alts but we were still able to find plenty of nice untracked snow in the tree areas off the top/side of the lifts.
Alts was definitely our favorite of the 3 resorts we visited.
The ski terrain, lack of westerners and quality of food and facilities was significantly better than Shizukuishi and Aomori.
The food and rooms etc at Aomori were all good thanks.
We were unfortunately caught in that most recent storm system which meant the high winds affected the Gondola operating and also the pair lift which accessed steeper terrain.
The backcountry looked interesting, but we weren’t equipped well enough to venture too far. It seems that it is a drawcard for the area because there were lots of groups of people heading off piste up into the hills behind.
All in all, it was a great 3 weeks and I’m quite sure we will be returning next year.
I will definitely be in touch with you again if I return!
Once again, thanks very much for all your help and patience putting together the package for us.
