Posted on Kit HansonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hugo is the man! He is so accommodating, so lovely to deal with, and adaptive to your individual needs. We were staying in Nozawa, and had to travel to Hakuba, Hugo organized us to picked up from our accommodation's doorstep, transported to the most beautiful mountain range I have ever seen at Togakushi, so we could make the most of the wonderful weather and enjoy a day snowboarding with the family. Way better than catching the bus I'll say that much! We were then dropped off at our Hakuba accommodation's doorstep and our amazing driver and tour guide Golcalo helped up load and unload all of our bags. He even returned my daughter's hire boots to Nozawa! Golcalo was a professional ski instructor to boot, and had so much knowledge of the local area, made the entire journey entertaining with his stories. Honestly would have been a bargain at twice the price! Hugo is an absolute legend of a bloke, seems like a "the guy that knows everyone" in Nozawa and can always point you in the right direction. Highly recommend, I'll definitely be utilizing his services when I'm back in Japan! Picture is of the mountain range Togakushi looks out upon, honestly going to be a core memory of this trip.Posted on KvSTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience with Nagano Ski Tours. They organized two ski classes for us and a trip to a neighboring ski resort, and everything was seamless. The team was incredibly helpful and attentive throughout, and the instruction was top notch, clear, patient, and very effective. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a well-organized and enjoyable ski adventure in Nagano!Posted on Sam KeallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We did a tour to Shiga Kogen with Marcus and we loved it. Marcus was fun, flexible, relaxed and super helpful. He even gave some snowboarding tips to my wife and me. The kids had a great day. Highly recommended.Posted on Danielle Royall-WestTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Marcus was a legend, having not snowboarded for over 30 years my anxiety was at an all time high. Marcus made me feel at ease and even accomplished…. Haha! He’s a great coach, trainer and all round confidence builder. I would recommend to anyone who needs to gain skill, confidence and have fun while learning to snowboard. Thank you 🙏Dealing through Hugo was simple and easy. Thanks for arranging everything.
