WHY CHOOSE YABAI TOURS

Discover the Difference

At Yabai Tours, we turn Hokkaido’s snow into unforgettable experiences. When you join our tours, you’re not just booking a day in the mountains — you’re unlocking hidden powder lines, expert local knowledge, and real adventure.

🏔️ 1. Local Experts, All Year Round

We live and ride here — based in Asahikawa, surrounded by legendary mountains like Furano, Asahidake, and Kurodake.
Our guides explore these slopes year-round, so we know where the snow is deepest, the crowds are fewest, and the conditions are best.

🚡 2. More Riding, Less Hiking

We use lift-assisted access on most tours, so you spend your time carving fresh lines — not climbing with heavy gear.

💰 3. Transparent, All-Inclusive Pricing

Our tours are simple and honest — no hidden fees, no upselling.
What you see on our website is what you pay.
Included: guide, transport, lift passes, snacks, and safety gear.
Extras: lunch and optional backcountry equipment rental.

🧭 4. Safety First — Always

Every guide is experienced in avalanche safety and first aid.
If you need a pack with beacon, shovel, and probe, we can supply you for an extra ¥5,000 yen per day.
Our goal: maximize fun while keeping you safe in Japan’s unique snow conditions.

🏂 5. Custom Tours for Every Rider

Whether you’re after mellow tree runs, deep powder lines, or steep chutes — we build each day around your style and skill level.
Solo traveler, couple, or group — we’ll match you with the right terrain and pace.

🕒 6. Flexible and Rider-Friendly

Short trip? Tight schedule?
No worries. We offer single-day and multi-day options.
You can ride Furano one day, Asahidake the next, or mix resorts as conditions change.

📸 7. Free Photos & Videos

Every tour includes free digital media.
Your guide will capture GoPro or 360° clips during the day, so you can relive your best lines — no extra charge.
