Турове с Nagano Station

Пет звезди за нашия австралийски приятел, екскурзоводът Киърън. Той пристигна на сборния пункт по-рано. Днес бяхме само аз и моето семейство, така че може да се каже, че бяхме VIP група. Семейството ми не говори много добре английски, така че днес беше ден за платена практика на говорене 😂 (Киърън каза, че основната му работа е учител по английски език в гимназия). Той е много приказлив и успя да разбере нашия не толкова добър английски. Тъй като не бяхме много хора, по пътя ни заведе до няколко допълнителни забележителности/гледни точки. Днес времето беше малко облачно, но за щастие не валеше силен дъжд, така че беше доста комфортно. По пътя той също така ни разказа за японската история, култура, архитектура и растения.

This is a great way to see Nagano and the snow monkeys. The tour is often self directed as you get brought to a place, told a little about the history and architecture, and get the rest of the time to wander. My tour guide seemed a little nervous but he did a great job. Definitely worth my money.

What to bring: Drinks and snacks, waterproof shoes, waterproof jacket, umbrella, hat, phone cross-body strap, backpack, wet wipes. We went on a small tour with our Alpan guide, just 11 of us. It started at 8:00 AM and ended at 1:30 PM. First, don't go to the snow wall; go to the pond first and walk as far as you can. You can see everything at the snow wall in about 25 minutes round trip. You can see the pond with melted ice, the hot springs in the distance, and if you're lucky, even the mascot bird. The bird poses well, so you can comfortably take photos. Although it was a very quick tour, I'm satisfied. I'm thinking of going again personally during the upcoming winter season. Alpan guides are the best! If you get an Alpan guide, your trip will be much easier.

Hassle free travelling. Have your own transport for pick up and drop off. Do not expect too much commentary from the guide. Only essential information. Just one additional piece of information. Food purchase is by cash. Card is acceptable for purchase of souvenirs.

Meeting point at Nagano Station very convenient. Our guide very friendly and responsible. At each stop, they ensure every participants are present. Beautiful scenery. We transferred onto different transportation to reach the Alpine. Highly recommended.
