About this tour

  • After receiving your Shinkansen ticket and travel guide from the staff at the meeting point in Tokyo Station, you can start your trip freely.
  • Experience riding on Japan's proud high-speed train, the JR Shinkansen! There's no need to worry about traffic jams and it's punctual, so you'll have plenty of time for skiing.
  • This is a great value plan that includes a round-trip unreserved seat ticket on the Joetsu Shinkansen and a lift ticket to GALA Yuzawa.
  • The Joetsu Shinkansen is a round-trip unreserved seat plan, so once you receive your ticket from the attendant, you can leave and return at any time you like. This plan offers a high degree of freedom, allowing you to move around on your own schedule.
  • GALA Yuzawa Station is super convenient as it is directly connected to the ski center once you exit the ticket gate!
  • The Shinkansen bound for GALA Yuzawa leaves Tokyo Station about once an hour.
  • If you take the Joetsu Shinkansen, it takes just 71 minutes from Tokyo! The travel time is so short that you can enjoy dinner in Tokyo after a long day of skiing!
  • Please purchase your own Joetsu Shinkansen ticket and lift ticket exchange coupon on the day of your visit.
  • GALA Yuzawa has a hot spring and pool facility called "SPA Gala no Yu." You can enjoy the hot spring and pool after skiing! (Additional charge)
