Things to do in Nagano

excellent. visiting the anow monkey is a must when in Nagano. its a long walk, but worrh it. Kevin and Teddy, our tour guides were very good. the included lunch, shabushabu was likewise very good. a choice of beef, or seafood or vegetarian. its easier when joining a tour for this activulities. no stress aa compared to do it yourself trip.

The organization is excellent, punctual, and respectful. Our guide gave us explanations in English (we were traveling from Mexico 🇲🇽) and also in Mandarin. The transportation is comfortable and clean, so you can rest a bit between transfers. The tour is demanding, lots of walking, but that's specified from the beginning. The places we visited were wonderful.

was initially only looking forward to the Nagano Snow Monkeys portion of the trip but the visit to the shrine was enjoyable too! took many photos.. and loved the walk with surrounding snow. The guide prepared crampons for all of us so the walk was very lovely!

Had a fantastic day tour with our friendly tour guide Jens. He was very informative with clear instructions throughout the day which made everything go smoothly. The itinerary wasn't too rushed and the pace suited us well. Bus was large and comfortable. We were able to borrow snow gear prior to 1.5hrs of snow fun at Shiga Kogen. Lunch was great and tasty aswell. The walk to see the snow monkeys was challenging due to the icy track - crampons are a must in winter! Would thoroughly recommend this day tour overall!

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

easy to enter the skiing area for sight viewing. just go to direct to the cashier and show the voucher and you will get the pass. need to deposit 1000 yen per person. tips: dont forget to get the free lunch at the counter.

redemption of tickets and gear was fuss free and staff were very nice. ski resort was relatively not crowded.

We were so lucky to have Feng Liang, a Chinese instructor from Taiwan, who took us on different cable car routes, encouraged us to try different slopes, and helped us successfully learn to turn smoothly this time. We are also very grateful to the instructor for taking many photos and videos for us, leaving us with many memories of this skiing trip. We are really very happy!

my instructor Jake was amazing. He spent the day helping me develop my skiing and gave very helpful advice. we chatted all day and got along well. the over the waist powder skiing was the best of my life and im thankful he was there to assist me navigate it.
