Snow Monkeys, Obuse & Sake: En perfekt dag i Nagano

Gå en rolig skov sti for at se vilde macaques slappe af i naturlige varme kilder - en af Naganos mest ikoniske seværdigheder. Næste, besøg Obuse for en lokal frokost og en historisk bryggeri sake smagning. Så nyd lidt fritid i denne charmerende by, der længe har været forbundet med kunstneren Hokusai, hvis senere år i Obuse hjalp med at forme sin kulturelle identitet - gå rundt i de naturskønne gader, gennemse lokale butikker og smage nogle lokale delikatesser i dit eget tempo. Ved 8:45 afganger er der også tid til et valgfrit besøg i Zenkoji-templet - et af Naganos vigtigste historiske vartegn (ikke tilgængeligt ved 9:35 afganger). Med smukke landskaber, autentiske smag og et strejf af kunst og historie, denne tur fanger det bedste af Nagano - komfortabelt, effektivt og i en ægte personlig lille gruppe.

Vores team vil stadig give et komfortabelt køretøj, en velkendt guide og en velstruktureret rejseplan for at gøre dit besøg meningsfuldt.

This was a small tour and Masa was superb! Great directions on meeting point and check in. Gave some history and pointed out sites aling the way. Since this was a moderate hike to see the monkey's he was clear on what to expect and kept the group moving but not rushed so everyone could keep their own pace. Pretty muddy in spots but the hike was well worth it. Lots of time for pics and enjoying this amazing bit of nature. After the hike, stopped for lunch (loved the pork over the chicken). Might let them know of any allergies since this a preset meal. Then off to sako tasting...loved the Shu! 30 minutes to tour and then back to Nagano. Masa took great care of us and highly recommend him as a guide. Just awesome, encouraging us to take the time need to enjoy the mountain on our way!
Thank you very much for your thoughtful review. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the day and felt well supported throughout the tour. The walk to see the monkeys can be a bit muddy and active at times, so it means a lot to know that Masa helped everyone feel comfortable while still giving you time to enjoy the scenery and experience at your own pace. We are also very glad you enjoyed the lunch and the sake tasting — and especially that you found a favorite sake. Thank you as well for mentioning the preset meal, as that is very helpful for future guests. We truly appreciate your kind recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Nagano again someday. Warm regards, o8Experience
Our guide Masa was wonderful and gave us a great experience. Despite the long walk it was well worth it to see the monkeys. Masa took us to a beautiful restaurant where we had an authentic lunch which we all really enjoyed. Afterwards we had a Sake tasting which was brilliant, it renewed my faith in Sake !!!! We were by far the eldest in the group, but Masa kept a watchful eye over us. All in all a great day, thank you Masa.
Thank you very much for your kind review. We are so pleased to hear that you had such a positive day with Masa. Seeing the snow monkeys is always special, and we are very happy to know the walk felt worthwhile and that you enjoyed the authentic lunch and sake tasting as well. It also means a lot to hear that you felt well looked after throughout the day. We always hope every guest can enjoy the experience comfortably, and your words are truly appreciated. Thank you again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back to Nagano in the future. Warm regards, o8Experience
We had a lovely day out with Kei our guide. She was very friendly and her English was excellent. She took the time to chat to everyone and made us all feel comfortable. She even surprised me by saying Thank you to me in Welsh. Unfortunately there was not much snow around but it was a beautiful sunny day and we saw loads of monkeys. Lunch was in a beautiful restaurant in Obuse. The Japanese fried chicken was delicious. The meal was followed by a sake tasting session. We were able to choose 2 types of sake each to taste so managed to taste 4 between us. We had time to wander around the lovely little town after lunch and we enjoyed the local chestnut flavoured ice cream for dessert. The driver dropped us off at the Zenkoji temple so we had plenty of time for a bit of culture to round off the day,
Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful review. We are very happy to hear that you had such a lovely day with Kei. It is wonderful to know that her friendly manner, strong English, and warm communication helped everyone feel comfortable throughout the day. We are also so pleased that her Welsh “thank you” made the experience even more memorable. Although there was not much snow, we are glad you had beautiful weather and were still able to see so many monkeys. It is also great to hear that you enjoyed your time in Obuse — from lunch and the sake tasting to walking around the town and trying the chestnut ice cream. Finishing the day at Zenkoji Temple sounds like a very nice way to round off the experience. Thank you again for joining us. We truly appreciate your lovely feedback and hope to welcome you again in Nagano. Warm regards, o8Experience
My husband and I had such an amazing time on this tour! It turned out that we were the only two who had booked the experience that day and so it felt very luxurious. At Nagano Station, we were whisked away in a comfortable vehicle to see the incredible snow monkeys. It's a bit of a drive, then a bit of a hike to get to the actual park, but it was our first time in Nagano and we marveled over the scenery and learned a lot about the area. After plenty of time with the monkeys, we went to the charming Obuse area where we had a delicious lunch, followed by a fun and informative sake tasting. During some free time, we chose to visit the Hokusai Museum and sample some chestnut ice cream. We elected to visit Zenkoji on our way back to Nagano Station, which also included some time for grabbing local snacks and souvenirs on the street leading to the temple. It really was a well-paced, informative, and super entertaining day that I would recommend to anyone!
Thank you so much for your wonderful and thoughtful review. We are truly delighted to hear that you and your husband had such an amazing day with us. It is especially nice to know that the tour felt comfortable, well-paced, and personal from start to finish. Nagano offers such a special mix of nature, local culture, food, and history, so we are very happy to hear that you enjoyed not only the Snow Monkeys and the beautiful scenery, but also your time in Obuse, the sake tasting, Hokusai Museum, chestnut ice cream, and Zenkoji Temple as well. It sounds like you made the most of the day, and that is exactly the kind of experience we hope to create. Thank you again for choosing o8Experience and for recommending the tour so warmly. We would be very happy to welcome you back to Nagano in the future. Warm regards, o8Experience
Cannot recommend enough! My husband and I had the most wonderful day. We started with a hike to the snow monkey park/onsen. The monkeys were so cool to look at, and it was up close and personal. The hike there and back was filled with gorgeous views. The town we had lunch in was picturesque, and the Hokusai museum had so many pieces to admire. We learned a lot at the sake tasting. It was a perfect, well rounded tour with the most amazing guide!
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review. We are truly delighted to hear that you and your husband had such a memorable day with us. It is great to know you enjoyed the walk to the Snow Monkey Park, the close-up moments with the monkeys, and the beautiful scenery along the way. We are also pleased that lunch in town, the Hokusai Museum, and the sake tasting all came together to create a well-balanced and enriching experience. We sincerely appreciate your kind words, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Nagano again in the future. Warm regards, o8Experience
We beat the crowds which made it possible to get close to the onsen where the monkeys bathe. We enjoyed the sake tasting and lunch in the town was delicious. Masa-san was an excellent tour guide. We highly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your wonderful feedback. We are delighted to hear that beating the crowds made it possible for you to get close to the onsen where the monkeys bathe—and that you also enjoyed the sake tasting and a delicious lunch in town. It also means a great deal to hear that Masa-san provided excellent guiding and helped make your day special. Thank you again for your kind recommendation. Warm regards, o8Experience
A terrific tour! I highly recommend Masa-san and this tour. Being a smaller tour, masa-san can beat the busloads of tourists to the Jigokudani Yaen-koen snow monkey park and give you some insights into the history of the park. This was followed by a lovely lunch in Obuse, a small town in the Nagano region. We toured the Hokusai Museum and enjoyed the area and its treats and snacks. The sake tasting was fun, and we even bought a bottle of our favorite. Masa-san is super-friendly and can adapt the tour as-needed. Thank you, Masa-san!
Thank you so much for sharing your kind feedback — we truly appreciate it. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the pace of the day, the early arrival at Jigokudani Yaen-koen, and the local stories along the way. Obuse is a wonderful little town to explore, so we’re glad the lunch, Hokusai Museum visit, and street snacks were highlights for you. And it’s great to know the sake tasting was a fun experience (even better that you found a favorite bottle to take home!). It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Nagano again in the future. Warm regards, o8Experience
