Narita airport

Hakuba Transfers

There are 2 main choices if you want to avoid public transport and be taken direcly from the airport to Hakuba.

Option 1. The Nagano Snow Shuttle.

This is the best option for getting to or from either Narita or Haneda airports. You just make your way to their counter inside the arrivals lobby and they will put you on one of their very comfortable buses (pre-booking required). NOTE • Outside of these dates you will need to either book "Chuo Taxi" (below) or make your own way by public transport to Hakuba. • There is a fixed meeting point inside Terminal 2 for the aiport pick up. • Meeting point for return transfer is at the Hakuba Base terminal in Echoland. • For the transfer from Narita add ¥1,000 if you would like a drop off in front of your accommodation. For the 3pm and 8.30 pm departures this is compulsory due to the late arrival time in Hakuba. o For other times the drop off point will be at the Hakuba Base terminal at the bottom of Echoland

Option 2. Chuo Taxi

This option is best used only if your dates/times do not work in with the Nagano snow shuttle schedules. It is far more expensive than the latter, and the buses in general are not as comfortable either. They do a name signboard meet at the arrivals lobby which does make things easy, and the drop off/pick up is at your accommodation. • Door to door including a name signboard meet at the arrivals lobby. • Costs ¥15,900/person each way + ¥1,000 per group fee for the name signboard meet. • They normally require 7 days notice for bookings.
