We went to shibazakura and it was supposed to be rainy. The weather gods were with us and we are able to see Fuji clearly with the beautiful flowers and the lake. The onsen was amazing and the wineries were great. The second winery you paid ¥1500 to taste 180 wines and best part is you pour it yourself. I had a great time.

Was a fun snowboarding trip. Met a lot of good people, & instructors + other students made it all a fun experience. Only cautionary point, you cannot buy any food after 6 pm or something & it's not known in advance, so buy food/drinks from combini by 6, if you want to enjoy the night later on.

I had a great time on the the Shiga Kogen Snow Monkey Trip. We stayed at a cozy place and were so close to the mountains. The onsen in the hotel was nice to visit and everyone was super friendly.

I had a really nice time at the summer season party! It was great to see some people from previous trips and meet a lot of new people. It was also nice to see the trip leaders from the trips we had been on previously. The location in Shibuya was great, it was at a bar I had past many times and had been meaning to check out. There was a singer who was really great and the DJ was good. There were also many raffle giveaways of various prizes ranging from small trinkets to t-shirts to free trips. The fee to attend the party included one drink. The only thing I would say is that their bar could have had higher quality drinks- it felt very cheap and low quality. Overall it was a nice time and I am looking forward to going on trips in this summer season such as kayaking, winery tours, rafting and hiking.

If I had to summarize the trip in one sentence: "Ride the bus, enjoy the people, make GREAT memories, have TONS of fun, ride the bus back home". If I had to write more I'd say: great accommodation (we were literally 80 meters from the piste), attentive trip leaders, everything was spelled out clearly: both on paper and digitally, we had a chat group to organize ourselves and there has not been a second where I didn't know what would we do next. It really felt like a group of friends skiing rather than an organized tour with total strangers: definitely going again!

I had a great time on my first trip with Tokyo Snow Club! Tokyo Snow Club made the entire trip extremely easy, especially for a non-experienced skier. The beginner lesson was really fantastic and the equipment rentals were very easy. I also really enjoyed seeing the Snow Monkeys! The hotel was pretty bare-bones but it did the job of serving as a place to sleep and had a nice onsen. The food was okay, but I'm glad it was accommodating to my vegan friend who had a specially prepared dinner just to meet her eating restrictions. Though the party was cancelled due to covid, we still had a really nice time meeting people. I do think it would be nice if dinner wasn't assigned tables by room so that people could mingle and meet each other during that time instead of only sitting with the people they already know. Overall, I had a really great time and I am excited to go on more trips with Tokyo Snow Club in the future. Happy skiing!

The visit to the sake tasting area was the icing on the cake. By that time, it has stopped raining, and we were free to spend a leisurely time sipping sake and enjoying the beautiful outdoors.
