Reaching Niseko In Japan - Flights As Well As Ground Transfer
The Japanese island of Hokkaido is serviced by the major urban center of Sapporo. Sapporo's New Chitose International Airport receives flights from many foreign destinations . In addition, all the key domestic Japanese airlines operate numerous daily domestic flights to and from New Chitose.

From Australia you can either fly into Narita airport on an international flight and then take a domestic flight from Tokyo to Sapporo or you can fly to Sapporo via Hong Kong or Singapore.

In-country flights from Tokyo to Sapporo's New Chitose Airport leave from both the Tokyo Narita International Airport and the Tokyo Haneda airport. You will have to take a 1.5 hour coach ride from Narita to Haneda if there are no flights available direct from Narita. The same bus ride applies from Haneda back to Narita on the return route if you can't get a flight directly from New Chitose to Narita.

You can then make your way from New Chitose Airport to Niseko by ground shuttle, car or train.

New Chitose Airport to Niseko

Coach

There are three coach companies Chuo, Donan and Goodsports Whiteliner. You can purchase tickets when you arrive at the bus information counter in the arrivals hall. All signage is in English and easily found on arrival. The coach journey to the accommodation in Niseko is about 2.5 hours in length and costs ¥2,300 per person one way or ¥3850 return. You can book and pay for spots in advance or buy seats in the airport. From the airport most people take the bus to Niseko, as it is direct and the cheapest option. Visit the main Niseko website for coach timetables to Niseko.

You can also book a private vehicle to take you from the airport to your Niseko lodging. This makes sense for groupings of between 5 and fourteen people (visit the Skybus website for current prices).

Train

If you are arriving straight to Niseko from Sapporo's Chitose Airport the train works out to be more expensive and it takes a little bit longer. You will want to lug your gear a lot more too and also have to change trains at either Sapporo or Otaru. Once at the Kutchan Train Station you will need to use a taxicab or bus to complete your journey. The cab ride can be in the area of ¥ 2000, adding to the cost quite considerably. However most tour operators will pick you up and drop you off.

Car

If you are voyaging around Hokkaido, then you may want to hire an automobile to make the most of you trip. Notethat in winter the driving conditions are extremely dangerous in Hokkaido due to the amount of snow that Hokkaido gets and therefore if you intend to spend the majority of your time in Niseko then there is not any real demand for a vehicle. Vehicle charter is upwards of ¥15,000 per day and the travel time from New Chitose to Niseko is 2 to 3 hours. All vehicles have navigation and an English interface is available on inquiry. Car rental businesses will want an International Drivers License and a credit card with passport ID.

On Arrival

When you get to Niseko you will be able to get the keys to your Niseko accommodation from the management company that managed your property. If you arrive by shuttle you will need to get a taxi or shuttle bus from the destination area to the management business offices. There is a taxi rank at the drop off area. Sometimes management company staff can pick arrivals up from the bus destination and take you to your Niseko chalet.
