JR have released their winter ski packages brochure which is an awesome resource if you are looking for a great value getaway in the snow.
The have some amazingly priced day return trips that include your bullet train tickets from Tokyo and back as well as the lift ticket (and often rental as well.)
There are also deals with train, lift tickets and accommodation if you fancy a longer break. There are offers for GALA Yuzawa, Kandatsu, Naeba, Maiko, Yuzawa Park, Joetsu Kokusai, Iwappara and Nakazato all of which are ideal for the family ski vacation.
We offer lessons in all the above resorts (as well as resorts in Minakami and Nozawa Onsen) so have you covered for quality English language ski and snowboard instruction.
We're playing the waiting game now to see when the snow arrives but it is a great idea to get that first lesson in early in the season to set you up for a long winter of enjoyment on the snow.
