Endo and the other guide were excellent. It was the second day the Snow Wall was open, so there were many people, and taking the tram, electric bus, and cable car felt like being packed in like sardines. However, the scenery was beautiful and well worth it.

A big thank you to Teddy for his exceptional responsibility and strong dedication to keeping the tour group on schedule at every stop.

The tour was great. Everthing went according to the plan. The modes of transportation were timed perfectly. The guide was very nice and had a lot of information about the places as well as tips what to do and where to go during free time. He also gave great recommendations what to do and eat in Nagano. The landscape is just beautiful. The snow wall was 13m high.

Finally got to witness the Tateyama Kurobe snow wall although not as expected due to global warming. Pictures depicted in brochures was from more than a decade ago as informed by our guide Teddy. Teddy was informative and knowledgeable being a native of Nagano. He is meticulous and helpful and at times humourous. Enjoyed the experience going up to Murodo plateau and having fun in the snow although its already June. Kurobe dam was spectacular. A definite must and thank you Snow monkey tours and Teddy for an enjoyable experience.

The snow wall in Tateyama Kurobe is really worth seeing. It is still 15 meters high at the end of May and it is not too cold. The tour group arranged the transportation and meeting times at each stop, which was very convenient, and the tour guide gave us enough time.

Despite the huge crowds and the weather, my family and I had a great time. Seeing the 16 m-tall snow wall has been something that we wanted to see for a long time, and it was fun to ride the different modes of transportation to each Murodo station. Our guides were fluent in English and took care of the group well. They ensured no one was left behind and gave us lots of information and necessary safety precautions due to the weather.
