I want to personally thank Keiji for teaching me how to do tricks and giving genuinely helpful advice on how to improve! Also the vibes from the organizers were the best <3 (as always)

Amazing trip. The vibes were so good and the guides made it so much fun. Evening party on Saturday with the fireworks, torch skiing, live band, and nightclub was a huge highlight. Even without great snow, this was the best TSC trip I’ve been on yet!

Amazing Night Event with the traditional Taiko Performance. The scenery of Hakuba is amazing from the top. Local are friendly and they even have a night life here in the mountain. Able to meet a lot of new friend and good vibe people. Nice note to end the Ski season.

A well organized trip! The Japanese-style hotel was exclusively (I think) for the TSC and within walking distance to bars, restaurants and the lifts. There's a regular shuttle to the lifts for anyone who wanted it, too. Goryu and 47 offered several longer runs for beginners and some fun places to play for more advanced people, too. The resort is small enough you'll definitely run into TSC friends on the slopes or when eating. The timing couldn't have been better, aligning with both the Snow Machine music festival during the weekend days and Hakuba snow festival which brought Saturday night fun: free night skiing, Taiko drums, fireworks, a dragon dance, and live music!

This trip was so much fun! I met a lot of cool, new people and finally got back out to some gorgeous powder snow, after ages away. It was the perfect re-introduction to get my 'snow-legs' back, and actually be social. The guides were awesome; very informative, and super supportive, even, and maybe especially, when we were being dumb. My friend left her snowboard at the hotel, and I didn't notice until we got to the slopes. It was a whole ridiculous thing of sharing my board during the lesson. But, our instructors, Robin and Diane were super helpful, though hilariously flabbergasted by the situation. Hakuba was really gorgeous! And the festival, with the multiple taiko performances and fire dancing were quite the treat! Also, though we weren't there most of the time, the hotel staff catered to our needs brilliantly. They were so careful about everyone's dietary restrictions. It was admirable. All the staff, including the bus staff were really great, including long after the trip had passed. I lost something valuable on the way back, and everyone pitched in to search for it. It wasn't found, but I'm super appreciative of the effort anyway. Looking forward to another excursion with the lovely folks of TSC! I'll definitely be more mindful of my accoutrements next time! Cheers guys! Dani_T

My time at Hakuba with Tokyo Snow Club was absolutely wonderful! They truly go above and beyond in providing attentive service, making them stand out from the rest. Plus, the organizers are proficient in basic Japanese, making it accessible for Japanese speakers with basic English skills to join TSC activities. If you're looking for a fun-filled experience, TSC is the way to go!
