Upgrades available:

This promotion is designed to encourage beginner skiers and snowboarders, and to promote group guiding. If these products are not suitable for your needs, you may upgrade your applicable free offer to a different product with Imagine Japan (the ski school).

The following value will be credited towards a different product -

4 hour beginner lesson -> ¥20,000 credit towards another product

Full day group guided tour -> ¥15,000 credit towards another product

For example if you book accommodation at Trailside Apartments Niseko for 3 nights and are not a beginner, we will credit ¥20,000 per eligible 4 hr beginner lesson towards a higher level product - such as a high level private lesson or private backcountry guide. Or if you book 5 nights and want to book a private guide to be able to go into the backcountry with your own exclusive group (1-4 people max, no strangers), we will credit ¥15,000 per eligible group guided tour towards a private backcountry guide.

 

All offers are subject to Imagine Japan's instructor and guide availability, and favourable weather conditions (for safety reasons). Exact lesson times may be subject to change at late notice in the event of unforseen circumstances.

 

Access to genuine backcountry (going outside resort boundaries into the backcountry) is not available on group guided tours. Please inquire about private guided tours for this product. Backcountry safety gear and training is mandatory to depart resort gates, guests must be aware of an inherent risk of avalanche - group activities are not suitable in this environment.
