          Hakuba  Transfers

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

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).

Schedule

• Leaves    Narita    daily    09.15    am,    12.00    pm,    15.00    and 20.30pm . o Takes 6 hrs to get to Hakuba • Leaves   Hakuba   daily   at   08.00am,   09.30   am,   10.30   am, and 15.30pm o Takes 6 hrs to get to the airport • Times   in   red   run   daily   from   December   21st   till   March 11th,   other   times   only   26th   Dec-25   Feb.      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.

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/peson   each   way   +   ¥1,000   per   group   fee for the name signboard meet. • They normally require 7 days notice for bookings.
