“BRILLIANT***** I had the pleasure of dealing with Adam via email (back and fourth) and I can honestly say I had the best experience! He made booking my holiday easy and pain free, always prompt with answers and pleasant. My family were impressed and loved it. Every question I had he answered without any issue (poor guy had many!) I would absolutely recommend Mountain Watch Travel and Adam as your go to guy! Adam, thank you so much and sorry I will be dealing with you again! :) Let's talk Canada, Japan.........”

“We had a stellar experience booking our trip to Whistler with Mountain Watch, we started our journey with Vicky and ended with Anna, their service was incredible with competitive pricing! They answered our many questions with great attentiveness! The service we received made the entire experience all the more enjoyable, everything ran like clockwork, all of the bookings they handled for us went without a hitch. We'll definitely look to book through Mountain Watch again for our next trip :)”

“I had an awesome time on the Snowmads tour. Definitely one of the best travel experiences I’ve had and no doubt the best in the last 6 years! Colin and Steve were great guides. They were able to easily adapt and change the tour to suit the group’s needs when curve balls were thrown. And every decision was made with consideration of the whole group. They are both really top blokes as well. I’d be more than happy to travel on a tour they are leading again.”

“2nd trip top Japow, this time Hokkaido. A roadtrip that took us from Nisekko, to Otaru all the way up to Furano. Everything went as smooth as the ice cream Hokkaido is so well known for, except maybe that there were two vans in stead of one, with an extra driver needed. Push comes to shove our guid Bart solved the issue and we where on the road! Speaking of Bart, he is a great guy, that knows the spots. We skied deep pow every run. Be it tree runs with lift access, or short hikes, the pow was endless. He also took us skinning up Asahidake. He knows how to value the group and find the terrain and snow they are looking for. He is chill, and has a great sense of humor. Wouldn't wanna ride in Japow with anyone else!”

“Thanks Maddie for facilitating a fabulous first trip to Myoko for us. Everything from the transfers, hotel, passes were spot on and enabled us to focus on enjoying the moments - the snow, the village the food the bars. Looking forward to your support again next time😀”

“This was our 3rd ski trip to Hakuba Japan & 3rd time booking through MountainWatch (& previously LiquidTours). A thoroughly professional experience considering we needed to change the number of people & our need for more rooms. Wasn't a problem for the staff. Accommodation was as described & our lift tickets etc were waiting for us on arrival. Would have no hesitation in booking through MountainWatch a 4th time.”

“My first ski holiday in Myoko Japan was fantastic thanks to Tullia and Justine. I had a nice stay in a friendly Japanese family-run hotel... I chose a Japanese style room (futon on a mat) and it was really comfortable and clean. When my flight out of Auckland was cancelled due to cyclone Gabrielle Justine was great communicating and coordinating changes with my bus transfer and accommodation. Thanks again.... See you next year!”

“Overall a good trip, though a few things that could improve for future ones. The choice of Hotels really needs to be far more pragmatic. For a Golden Snowmads guided tour, 3 flights of steep stairs & no lift for some clients Over 70 & their luggage was incredibly inappropriate. The trip is not cheap & the choice of hotels often reflected little value for money outlaid. Alexys, Steve & Colin were all instrumental though with their guiding & group management”

“Anna was super helpful with helping us out with various options on our ski trip to Japan in January 2023, then booking the preferred choices and confirming all booked details on our recent trip to Japan. Made the holiday so much fun! Thanks heaps!”

“Gulmarg in January with Bart. WOW!!!! What a trip!!! It’s my 16th snow trip and right up there with the best trip I’ve done anywhere in the world. Massive thankyou to Bart, total pro from start to finish. He really did make our trip. So easy to deal with, he was engaging, fun and most importantly made the trip as safe for all of us as possible. He was particularly awesome with the girls, his patience and encouragement towards them really helped them step up their riding this season. The hotel was great and all his contacts in Kashmir were awesome. We can’t wait to get back there and will definitely use MW travel again!!! Thankyou for making it an unforgettable trip of a lifetime.”

“This was our third ski trip that was organised by Mountain Watch Travel and we were very happy with the service we received. Our agent, Justine was always prompt with communication and answered all of our questions in a very friendly and timely manner. She was very professional, super organised and I would highly recommend her. We did have some issues with Jetstar cancelling flights but Justine always kept us informed and helped with finding alternatives. Thanks so much Justine you are a true asset. Booking through Mountain Watch Travel has made our skiing trips hassle free. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Unfortunately this time round it seemed to be drama after drama. Not Mountain Watches fault. But the flights were changed, firstly from direct to outbound with stopover, adding 5hrs to journey ( no food added or anything). The return flight changed by a whole day, which didn't get picked up. So additional holiday day required and accommodation in Tokyo, which we couldn't really use arrive Sunday afternoon leave for airport Monday afternoon ( everything shut on Monday in Tokyo), more cost with airport transfers, more cost in airport carpark. Review of Hakuba, 12 years ago it was great, people couldn't do enough for you. Today, not the same atmosphere at all, if you want to drink with drunk Aussies it's for you. Has a Bali feel to it now. Good luck finding decent food now, restaurants are poor, terrible pizzas etc. You have to book, but often they are full, oddly Japanese options are limited. I would keep looking for a different ski experience and give Hakaba a miss.”

“Anna's recommendations were exactly what I asked for - I had tried 2 previous agents at other companies that kept providing options that didn't align to our needs or our budget. The trip was seamless, our stay at the Rosenheim Hakuba was awesome - boutique japanese style , friendly staff, excellent service. Pick up & drop off to the station. Even our ski instructor ( who was also outstanding) commented on how great the ski locker room was: boot drying rack , lockers for skis & helmets, dryers . The restaurant was great for after happy hour when we were too tired to go out - heated blankets at the tables! Our lift passes covered everything, our instructor took us to 4 resorts. It was our first time skiing & we had the best time. We will be back!”
