Reviews
My experience taking the Niseko Ski Resort - New Chitose Airport - Sapporo shuttle bus was very smooth. The meeting time and location provided by Klook before departure were clear, and the driver arrived on time that day. Luggage placement and headcount confirmation were efficient and very friendly for skiers. The ride was stable, and even on snowy roads, the driver seemed experienced, allowing for a restful nap. For first-timers to Niseko who don't want to transfer via JR or move with ski equipment, this shuttle option is really time-saving and effortless. Overall, it's a great value, and I would choose it again for future ski trips and recommend it to friends. Price: Pass Coverage:
The bus was very punctual, and it was a round trip. We enjoyed the scenery along the way and got off at the visitor center. It was still fun to take photos and play in the snow! 👍
The driver picks you up directly outside the hotel and drops you off point-to-point back at your Sapporo hotel. You absolutely need to book this kind of service when it snows in the winter.
Coach bus pick us righton time at pick up place. It was snowing heavily on the way up to Niseko and the bus driver was totally unfazed with his superp driving skill. It was definitely safe and comfortable travelling up from Sapporo to niseko on the coach bus to Hirafu welcome centre
The staff was organised and professional in handling our departure from the Hilton Niseko to New Chitose Airport. Bus was punctual and clean and the journey was relaxing. The driver stopped for 20 mins for toilet break and for us to purchase lunch. Excellent service!
VERY GOOD TO USE KLOOK TO BOOK THIS RESORT LINER BUS, WELL CONNECTED FROM AIRPORT TO NISEKO, WILL BOOK AGAIN NEXT TIME!!
ride was comfortable, driver seems experienced, view is very nice and aesthetic, charging USB ports available at each seat
Good easy way for transport. They were very very punctual, just need to ask if confused but was super simple, easy and convenient.
Instructions were easy to follow and the driver arrived on time. We had one suitcase each. The bus wasn’t overly packed at this time of year. The views to Niseko were very pretty. No issues at all. Highly recommend.
Everything went smoothly and the trip was very easy with Klook. The driver was very good, and the bus only stopped once for a break, which was perfect for me. I didn’t have to spend much time outside just relax on the bus, sleep, and enjoy the view. Everything was great. Thanks, Klook!
