Prefeitura de Hokkaido

We had a wonderful experience. The guide was very enthusiastic and happy to teach us how to ski, experience different slopes, and was very professional in ski instruction, ensuring the safety of the players. This is a truly professional tour in all organizational stages, from reception, guiding us to choose shoes and skis, transportation, and ski lessons. This tour is well worth experiencing. We are very satisfied.

The coach is very friendly and patient. She carefully observes how we snowboard and gives each of us advice on how to improve, even with five people in the group. She also pays extra attention to those who learn at a slower pace to ensure we don’t get injured.

Easy to find location for pick up. Only transportation, but when you get to the resort, it’s easy to get the equipment for snowboarding or ski. Resort staff were helpful.

Instructor Lemon came to pick us up from the hotel and take us to the ski area. All ski gear was provided, except for socks and face masks. He was patient and explained the basics to us in detail. He also helped us by taking photos and videos. Overall, it was a great and memorable experience, even though I kept falling 😆

My colleague warned me that I must hire an instructor for my first skiing experience. I initially thought it would be expensive, but I'm glad I did. Skiing is really not something you can learn just by watching YouTube tutorials. The package I booked included all equipment except gloves and a helmet. I recommend renting a helmet for an additional 1500 JPY. I found booking this Klook tour very convenient. The organizer is a ski rental shop, and they drive you directly to the ski resort in an SUV and guide you through putting on the equipment. The key point is that the skiing instruction is very detailed. The instructor provides one-on-one guidance in multiple languages, explaining each movement and helping you get on track. After practicing in the beginner area, the instructor assesses whether you can ski down from the top. I booked the double-board (ski) group, which had fewer people, unlike the snowboard group which was very crowded. The advantage of having fewer people is that the instructor can quickly block you if there's danger and ski down the mountain with you. Although I took the beginner green run at Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort, some parts were still very steep. If you can't make S-turns, you'll go straight down like a roller coaster, which is terrifying. It was 45 minutes of learning while falling. I think the experience was great, and I highly recommend booking this tour, regardless of whether you plan to pursue skiing as a hobby afterward.

Our instructor Yik was patient and knowledgable! he taught us the basics required to snowboard safely. we even manage to do 2 runs during the course of the lesson. it was a 1-to-4 class setting but he manage to teach all of us different things based on our skills level and learning speed. he even took some photos and videos of us without us asking.

最初はスタッフ全員が英語を話せるわけではないので、少し戸惑いました。しかし、夫と私はインストラクターのSOSO（はい、彼女の名前はSOSOです）とのプライベートセッションで素晴らしい時間を過ごしました。彼女は忍耐強く教えてくれ、一秒も無駄にすることなく、私たちは彼女と一緒に簡単な長い坂を2回滑ることができました（その後、自信を持って自分たちでさらに2回滑りました）。（グループセッションは私たちよりも少なかったと思います） 設備：5点中4点 インストラクター：最高。5点中1000点 体験：5点中5点 ロケーション：札幌市から最も近いスキーリゾート（だと思います） 安全性：バウチャーには保険が含まれており、インストラクターが本当に私たちの面倒を見てくれました。リゾート自体も適切な安全対策が施されています。

1. Regarding the meeting point: The bus station was cordoned off in February, so it took us a long time to find it after exiting the JR station. Luckily, we left early. Since we didn't have a line to contact anyone, we had to wander around until we found it. 2. Regarding equipment: Protective gear can be rented on-site, including helmets, full sets of ski suits, ski boots, and snowboards. They will also help guide you with the boots. 3. Regarding safety: Upon arrival, in the morning, the group will be divided into two coaches for 16 people, and in the afternoon, one coach for 8 people. Even if you fall, don't rush; the more you rush, the harder it will be to get up. The coach will assist you. 4. Since it's just an introductory lesson, don't expect to learn a lot in one day. Lunch is self-provided. 5. Summary: The beginner's lesson offers good value for money (and there's a photographer to help take pictures).

Experience is amazing. Package comes with a buffet lunch with hotpot. Bought snowmobiling and buggy ride, snow tubing and snow rafting come free.
