Back to our favorite Tsugaike with Tokyo Snow was again my pleasure. It gave me goosebumps to surf on the powder snow. I liked a new serving meal style. Foods were all warm. Loved all you can drink including a local sake during dinner surely added more enjoyment to overall arrangement. Thank you, Tokyo Snow! We will continue our adventure with you guys!

I had a lot of fun at Tsugaike! I got a private lesson with one of the TSC teachers and was really able to up my confidence and start moving faster. The location of the hotel was right in front of the lift which was super convenient. My roommates were super friendly and nice too. Amazing trip!

Great place to meet new friends & learning snowboard with other members! Nagano is quite far from Tokyo so I am grateful that there's finally a chance to go to Nagano and I'm happy about the memories.

It was a comfortable and fun trip. The leader's contacts were friendly and easy to understand, and the frequent communication made us feel at ease. The hotel was simple, but we were able to enjoy the hot springs at the ski resort, which was very satisfying.

Despite rain it was again an epic trip! Thanks to the guides for making it easy and TSC organizing it and all the new friends we made! Even with a kid (7) it was most epic.

Great trip! Better than what I expected considering it was the last one of the season, ski park is cool and also nice off piste. Totally recommended.

The trip leaders were great and friendly. The schedule was well-organized and the group chat for announcements was very efficient/helpful in passing along announcements/info during the trip. The Tsugaike resort has many wide open long runs.

TSC continues to give the best experience possible in any given circumstance. Even though the weather conditions were very unlucky for this particular weekend, the hosts did such a great job at keeping us satisfied with amazing meals, room accommodations, and service. Will definitely return for this trip next season.
