Sample Itinerary

Day 1

It’s go time! When you land at New Chitose Airport your private transfer will be waiting to take you to Niseko. 

Take some time to get settled into your hotel before making your way to Rhythm Hirafu for your gear fitting. If you're lucky, it might even be happy hour at our Rhythm & Beans Cafe -- the perfect time to grab your first Sapporo Classic of the trip.

Day 2

It's Monday! Get ready for an epic first day. The kids are up first to begin their week-long program at 9:00am. They’ll meet their coach and the other children before heading out onto the mountain for the day. 

Parents you are free to spend the day as you want before picking up the kids at 3:30pm. This can include exploring Niseko United independently at your own pace or upgrading your booking to add a lesson to develop your own riding skills and build your confidence on the slopes with one of our expert coaches!

Day 3

The kids will be out enjoying day two of their week-long program.

Parents, you've got the day to yourself! If you're looking to spend a bit more time working on your technique, you can upgrade your booking by adding on another lesson or you can book a day of guiding and have one of our experienced guides show you the best spots Niseko has to offer!

Day 4

On day three of riding, the kids will be out exploring more of the resort and building off the riding skills they've learned the first two days of the program. Parents, you're welcome to add a lesson or a day of guiding, or just take a day off the slopes to relax. There is a lot to do around Niseko off the mountain, including dining at any of Niseko's renowned restaurants, shopping or even spending an afternoon soaking in one of Niseko's mineral rich onsen before the children finish their lesson in the afternoon.

Day 5

It’s already day four of the Kids' Week program and today the children will likely be off to explore Annupuri or Niseko Village. Parents are free to enjoy a full-day of self guided exploration.

Day 7

It’s your final day on the mountain and to make the most of it, you’ll be experiencing it as a family!
