The most convenient way to get here from Narita Airport / Haneda Airport is to catch the Nagano Shuttle Bus. Many flights arrive late into Narita and usually people tend to spend the night in Tokyo. But if you take the Nagano Shuttle Bus, then you can be on the slopes by the next the morning!
The shuttle bus finished operating for the 23-24 season. We will update the information for next season and can start bookings in July.
We offer a daily shuttle bus to get you from Narita Airport / Haneda Airport to Nozawa Onsen, and from Nozawa Onsen to Tokyo, Narita and Haneda. We also offer an inner-resort shuttle, to and from a number of other ski locations.
Please Note: Some shuttle times only run on certain dates outside of Peak Season. Please see each the information below for departures and dates / times.
For bookings within 1week of departure, please contact us direct on +819096696026 (either phone or whatsapp)
Note: The bookings less than 72hours is unlikely to be able to accommodate.
