Located in the northeastern area of Japan’s largest island of Honshu, the Tohoku area is as beautiful as it is sprawling. And it is especially lovely in the winter season. That is the reason for this half-day snowboarding trip with a freeride world qualifier snowboarder.
While the Tohoku area is very tourist friendly, the slopes are not very crowded. As a result, you will get to enjoy the fullness of the rich slopes, and on powder days, you can enjoy their ungroomed snow.
Together, we will snowboard on different slopes. And my goal is not so much about teaching you about snowboarding. Instead, I intend to show you how the professionals do it, in hopes you pick up the subtle gestures that are often tough to explain and even tougher to understand when heard. However, I will gladly give you tips whenever you would like. Or, if you prefer to just enjoy riding the slopes with me, that would be great, too. In the end, this trip can be whatever you want it to be.
The only real criteria for this trip is that you must be able to snowboard at a minimum intermediate level. You should also be aware of your limitations and not try to overextend yourself. Instead, just focus on having a great time.
The Tohoku area is a great place for snowboarding. Large and beautiful, the scenery is great. So if you would like to join me on this half-day trip, just send a request. I look forward to riding with you!
You can also join me on a half-day riding trip in Nozawa Onsen.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
