A ticket will cost around 5,000 JPY per way, this is the most economical way of transport and you may expect wide comfortable seats and a bathroom stop within the 3-hour ride. Buses run every hour during high season, starting at 9:30am up until 9:30pm. Advance online reservation is required. To book a ticket, please visit the shuttle bus companies website from the link below. We provide a free pick-up/drop-off service to/from Hirafu Welcome Center and Midtown Niseko by appointment only.

Travelers will be dropped at the “Hirafu Welcome Center”, and the Midtown Niseko Shuttle Bus will pick you up in front of Welcome Center building.

Car Hire

Rental cars are strongly recommended during the Summer.

Hiring your own car means having the freedom to explore the different areas of Niseko and beyond, including Rusutsu, Toya and more. Please note that your International Driving Permission will be required as you drive. Hiring a GPS might be useless unless you understand Japanese language to input a destination, phone numbers instead of address. Downloading Google Maps to your smartphones and making the necessary arrangements prior your trip would be more helpful. Book your wheels online, pick you ride up a the airport, and expect a two – three hour drive to reach Midtown Niseko.

TOYOTA Rent a Car

Experience is advised if you are not used to icy roads and occasional blizzard conditions. Snowy roads are very slippery during winter. As always please be careful when you drive.

Car Hire

Train

The Japan train system is reliable and fast. From both Sapporo and New Chitose Airport, although this will take longer than the airport shuttle bus, you need to transfer once at Otaru Station to change a line which makes this option less convenient and more time-consuming. From New Chitose Airport station take “the JR Rapid Airport line” to Otaru Station, from Sapporo Station take line to get to Otaru Station, where you will change to “Hakodate Honsen line” to reach Kutchan Station. Please be aware that the nearest Station is “Kutchan Station”, not “Niseko”. A one way ticket will cost around 3,500 JPY (the seats reservation will cost more) and the whole journey is likely take three and a half hours depending on the snow conditions and how long you have to wait for the connection. Please visit the website from the link below to get more information.
