I could use some advice on trip planning. I'm planning a trip to Niseko for the first week of January 2024 for my wife and I. It's our 10 year anniversary. Ten years ago we did our honeymoon at St. Anton and this time we want to experience some of that famous Japow!
Here's our rough plan...
Thanks in advance!
Here's our rough plan...
- Fly in from Tokyo and arrive in Niseko in the late afternoon.
- Stay a few nights in Hirafu?
- Stay 5 nights in Hanazono (staying on points, so can't beat the free stay).
- Fly out and see more of Japan
- Hirafu: How many days should we stay in Hirafu? Any recommendations on where to stay? I'm considering the Midtown Niseko, but open to any suggestions.
- Guide/instructor: We plan on hiring a guide/instructor for a day or two. We'd love to do some slackcountry. Any recommendations on a guide/instructor? Anyone have experience with White Room Tours or Hokkaido Ski Club?
- Food: Any restaurant/bar/après/onsen recommendations?
- Anything else I should consider? The only thing we're locked into is the stay in Hanazono. Other than that, I'm open to checking other resorts as well, so we don't have to be in Hirafu.
Thanks in advance!
