7,700 JPY Ski Tour

Let me explain about reasonable Ski Tour for JPY 7,700 this time.Take the Bullet Train which called Joetsu Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to EchigoYuzawa Station.Then,Go on a free shuttle Bus which running every 20 minutes from Echigo Yuzawa Station to Kandatsu Snow Resort that famous for heavy snow fall.
Enjoy Skiing or Snowboarding during a day time,Return to Tokyo the same day  along the same way.The package tour combined with round trip train fare and Lift ticket.

I applied its tour on the Internet.

However, There is no English page prepared so you gonna be struggle online booking.But there are View Plaza びゅうプラザ you can see near the JR Stations are same organization with online travel agency which I shown above.I'm not sure that  the travel agency suggest 7,700 JPY for you or not. but I guarantee you will be offered sufficient price.so please ask for its Ski Tour at View Plaza if you are interested.

Take the Joetsu-Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to EchigoYuzawa Station. No matter heavy snow fall,the Shinkansen always running on time.It takes approximately 80 minutes from Tokyo to EchigoYuzawa.

When you arrived at EchigoYuzawa Station,go through the ticket gate at West Exit
and take a look at 10 o'clock direction.Free shuttle bus to Kandatsu Snow Resort leaves from here every 20 minutes.I guess it's going to be cold outside so you should better go into a waiting room until comes the bus.

The Bus will be arrive at Kandatsu Snow Resort about 10 minutes.

Go into the building and get in line at the booths to give voucher for lift ticket.
Please return the lift ticket in the return box when you go home.

Change into ski wear in the locker room.You can use the locker for 500 JPY. Usable repeatedly without charge as long as the finish button is not pushed.The restaurants in the ski resort are expensive so I had bring my own lunch and drink put it in the locker until got hungry.

A building kept clean inside has any restaurants and gift shops.
