Reviews
very convenient way of moving to/from niseko especially during winter. we're glad this offer is available now because it's quite difficult to commute with all the snow. highly recommended and thanks klook for making it so convenient to book and redeem.
The bus was very on time , it was a roundtrip bus ride and we enjoyed the scenery along the way, got to be dropped off at the Visitor center, and there’s a free shuttle for which hotel or area you want to visit. However we decided to ride the gondola with a fee at the Grand Hirafu Ski Resort , Niseko. Though we did not ski but it was fun taking pictures and playing the snow.
the shuttle bus services from New Chitose Airport to Niseko, and the destination is Welcome Centre (Hirafutei), it takes two hours safely travel from icy road surface. in the mid ways will have a toilet break 15 minutes. in the peak season, you should book your bus tickets as earlier as you could. a safe and effective transportation. I will book again and recommend to my snowboard fans.
a trustable booking system, all information given to the website and the seats of designated dates will be allocated. you should make sure all given information are clear and exact correct, for such don't worry about the bus provided booking services.
it was a little unclear on what our buss looked like and when we would leave exactly however the stop in the middle for a tolitet break is a fantastic idea I highly recommend this to someone else
Easily found the pick up point and driver was very helpful with the luggages. Bus was comfortable and the ride was smooth! love it :) beautiful views along the journey
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:
very safe and convenient! wish this service works any time of the month. we were able to go to Niseko in just 1 bus ride on a very reasonable price!
