So far, we have booked flights from Tokyo to Chitose on the 3rd May. After a bit research, we found that there may not be direct bus from CTS to Niseko. (there are one on the weekend of 4th May... but the website of cho bus mentioned they only run on weekends from 31st March to 6th May...)

There are the train option from CTS to Otaru to Kutchan then a taxi ride to Niseko (Hilton)... but it seems a bit complicated...

Does anyone have any experience about getting to Niseko during off-peak season? The private car transfer and taxi are too expensive... and we can't drive in Japan either...

Thanks in advance!!

The Chuo Bus website (in Japanese) says the service from CTS to Niseko runs at weekends and on public holidays between 30 March and 6 May. As 3 May is a public holiday in Japan there is a bus to Niseko leaving CTS at 13：30.
