The Frontier Explorer 8-Days, up to 6 ski hills including 1 day CAT Ski ¥310,000+tax (approx US$2,900) Trying to get away from the crowds? This is how you do it.
We went out and found the most untracked, uncrowded and unknown ski hills in Japan and put them on a platter right here, on the 8-day Frontier Explorer Trip. Staying true to our mission of incorporating cultural experiences, authentic restaurants, and trip-hosting, this is the next level trip for finding that hidden side of Japow you know exists, but can't seem to find. |
"One of the best tours I have been on. These guys take you to the best spots, both on and off the slopes. A truly great ski and cultural experience!"
