Our guide Aoi and our driver were amazing and made our excursion so enjoyable! It‘s really perfectly planned from pick up to the drop off. First we visited the snow monkey park. It‘s a bit of a hike, but so worth it! The forest is beautiful with brooks of water and hanging mist in the air. Of course the snow monkeys are a sight to behold and very entertaining to watch. We now have fabulous photographs and memories. The other stops of our excursion were the icing on the cake. I‘m not going to spoil the surprise of discovering it all on your own! Don’t miss the temple! It‘s a pity we only came for the day from Tokyo, because the o8experience Tour company offers other amazing excursions. Thank-you so much!

Amazing day, what an adventure
Amazing day, our guide Masa was brilliant. Highly recommend. Best lunch we’ve had in Japan. Didn’t realise that Sake could taste so nice until Masa took us to a Sake distillery. Absolutely beautiful.

Adapting a tour for diverse ages and fitness-,Masa rocked!
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.

Brilliant day including seeing the monkeys.
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.

Amazing trip to see the snow monkeys in Nagano
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.

One of the best tour experiences I've booked on this site!
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!

Cannot recommend enough!...
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!
