Matsumoto Tours

Whole Experience to Kamikochi The trip to Kamikochi was truly wonderful, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. Traveling from Nagoya took about 3.5 hours, and it was absolutely worth it. Along the way, our tour guide explained the entire itinerary in detail and even shared some great food recommendations that we must try while in Nagoya.

About 3.5h journey to reach with 2 toilet stop so still ok. Beautiful place. Unfortunately we went on the last day before the park closure for the season and the shrine decided to close a day earlier. Hiked for 1h for nothing but at least the view there was therapeutic.

We enjoyed our kamikochi experience. It was cloudy that day but there were times that it would fade away revealing a really beautiful scenery- I highly recommend it esp for nature lovers. Our tour guide Ms Amy was very helpful. Overall our experience was just amazing. thank you Klook 😊

I really enjoyed this one, even though it unfortunately rained during my trip. I will definitely do this again next time and hopefully it won’t be raining next time. Views are still immaculate even though it was raining, the japanese alps still peaked through. I did this tour on November 9, 2025 for anyone looking for ideas how Kamikochi looked like during this time. It was really cold and there were even blocks of ice/snow on the ground! (i think it snowed a few days before our trip).

Our tour guide, Mr. Zheng, provided excellent service 👍. He thoroughly explained the highlights and unique features of each attraction and clearly communicated even small details, such as where we would have lunch. I hope I have the opportunity to tour with Mr. Zheng again in the future. Thank you 🙏.

Kamikochi – often called "the homeland of the gods" by the Japanese, and a place you should visit once in your lifetime. When planning this trip to Japan, I specifically started the journey from Nagoya to visit Kamikochi, taking a day trip via Klook to reach Kamikochi in Nagano Prefecture. The day before in Nagoya, it was raining, and I was worried that the weather in the mountains today wouldn't be great. But as soon as I got off the bus, I was shocked and moved by the beautiful scenery before my eyes. A cool breeze and comfortable sunshine poured down, with the Hotaka mountain range standing majestically in front of me. The waters of Taisho Pond and the Azusa River sparkled in the sunlight. While hiking towards Kappa Bridge, it felt like time had slowed down at this moment— leaving only my heartbeat, breathing, and the distant chirping of birds. The meaning of travel, perhaps, lies in moments like these, where you can relax and empty your mind, and remember yourself. #Kamikochi #SlowTravel #JapanTravels #🇯🇵Travelogue

At first, I was hesitant to join this tour. But, when I finally made up my mind, this tour became one of my most memorable trips here in Japan. Our tour guide Leonardo/Leo was very accommodating. He explained us very well about the routes 1 & 2. You can choose on either of it. We chose route 1, so we could have more time to take pictures on the way. I also commend the bus driver for the safe ride back & forth. 3.5 hours of free stroll around kamikochi was enough to view, take pictures, and enjoy the beauty of the nature. The weather was sunny and the mountains were visible. The rivers are clean and clear. Before we head to the bus terminal at 3pm for the departure going back to Nagoya, we were able to buy gifts and souvenirs near Kappa bridge. Just make sure to always check the time when buying as there are many people in the stores queueing to pay. Overall, this tour is worthy of price and experience.

Distance between both sites is not short, and having this tour helps a lot for those who may not have a short time in Nagano. Our guide was Shuhei. He was very pleasant and spoke good English, and was patient to accommodate our family in the Snow Monkey Park due to the unexpected heavy snowfall and slippery surface. we were rewarded with a beautiful experience with the monkeys, the photos speak for themselves. He brought us to a soba shop for lunch that served really good soba and tea, followed by a tour to the Tokagushi Shrine. The snowfall made the trees really magical and there was even enough snow for the kids to play. Shuhei brought us to the relevant spots and highlighted the photo points. He accommodated changes to the schedule and we were grateful for this. All in all happy with the tour

Matsumoto castle and kamikochi both were wonderful. The tour was really good. pick up and drop was smooth too.
