About

Niseko


Niseko- Hirafu is a mountain resort village which has become world renown for is huge winter snowfalls. While the international focus for Niseko has been winter,what the Japanese have always known is the attractions of Niseko and Hokkaido in summer. With mild temperatures, wide open spaces, great food, clean air and rivers add to this almost unlimited miles of hot mix on uncrowded roads through farms and over mountains and you have a road cycling paradise.

HT Holidays

Located in Niseko, Japan. HT Holidays is the largest independent property management company in Hokkaido, boasting a comprehensive portfolio of over 200 luxury condominiums and resort houses. HT Holidays also offers a range of concierge services to ensure a seamless holiday experience as well as a comprehensive groups and incentive product.

Hokkaido Tracks was established in 2003 by three Australians from diverse backgrounds who shared a passion for skiing, a fascination with Niseko and its abundant powder snow, and a vision to introduce a hospitality and accommodation model based on a common concept in the ski resorts they had visited internationally. These individuals were Matt Dening, and Simon and Joasia Robinson. The business has since grown into a significant stakeholder in the region and operates year round.

Bikestyle Tours

Specialising in cycling holidays to France, Italy and Spain, Lawrie and Natalie Cranley started organising cycle trips in 1996 and still own and run the company with the same passion and values as the day they started. The philosophy has always been to cater for everyone who has an interest in cycling – both cyclist and non-cyclist. We create interesting and challenging rides while our vehicles travel to strategic locations along the course and frequently make visits to top tourist spots – not forgetting to enjoy what our destinations have to offer.

In 2006 Bikestyle Tours were very proud to announce that they had been appointed as Official Tour Operators to the Tour de France, and joined a very select group of only 5 companies worldwide who were able to boast this accreditation.
