My group of 6pax have enjoyed our 2D1N tour of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, we were especially fortunate to have such an excellent guide in Ms Zhang, 张静娟. Our itinerary was well scheduled and Ms Zhang's detailed explanation of the places that we're visiting is clear and precise. She has also advised us of the nice local food that we should try. The 6 different transportation is an experience as we crossed the Alps and the mountains to reach the snow walls. The highest point of the wall was 11m, unfortunately, it was raining when we reached the snow wall, our photos was alittle blurry and wet but our excitement has compensated for the weather 😂

My experience at Hakuba skiing was perfect from the moment I made the reservation. I booked the lessons well in advance, and the email communication was extremely efficient. They even created a group chat to confirm everything before we left, which made me feel very reassured.
We originally booked the Tsugaike lessons, but the instructor suggested switching to Iwatake because we were complete beginners and the slopes are more suitable for beginners. This decision proved to be very wise! The terrain at Iwatake is very beginner-friendly.
This 6-hour course was like a "crash course":
We not only learned how to do front and back edge sliding, edge changes, and falling leaf, but we even unlocked straight running! The instructor was very patient and explained the theory in a simple and easy-to-understand way, making the potentially dull movements easy to grasp.
Most touchingly, when we went down the mountain, we realized we had left our backpack at the top. After leaving, the instructor returned to help us contact the ski resort staff to find it and even drove us back to the hotel. We are so grateful!
I would definitely give it a 10/10. If you want to learn to ski in Hakuba, you can book with confidence.

Our tour was on a Monday and we had Dave as our guide. The tour itself was great. We started the tour at monkey park. I do wish we had the option to arrive there earlier to beat the crowd, and enjoy walk to the park. But if you’re patient enough, you can get a good spot to see the monkeys in the hot springs. Before heading to the shrine, we stopped for lunch and let Dave picked. So glad he picked, it was delicious soba. Then we arrived at shrine. The walk along the tree lines felt ethereal and majestic, especially with the snow. Now about our tour guide, Dave really made the whole day super enjoyable. He arrived promptly and warmly. Dave was a wonderful tour guide. He lives locally, and pointed out fun local spots. At each location, he was very patient with us. Went above and beyond when taking our photos. Loved this tour.

this was a fantastic trio of villages to visit, especially in winter. Gokayama is quiet and otherworldly! The paper washi making was super fun, our guide and driver were consistent and reliable, the car itself was comfy, and the scenery between places was absolutely breathtaking. definitely worth paying the money to get to experience the immense beauty of this region without the hassle of driving or getting around via other methods.

I was very impressed with Next Tour's service for a 10-hour private Fuji tour. The team's coordination was excellent; they created a chat group in advance to confirm the itinerary and contact numbers. Our driver, Mr. Shrestha, arrived before the scheduled time, was very polite, and drove smoothly and safely. Even though it rained on the day of our tour and the weather wasn't ideal, making it difficult to see Mount Fuji clearly, Mr. Shrestha made an effort to take care of us and helped us check in at various spots. He communicated well in English, which made the trip very smooth. I highly recommend this service for anyone traveling to Japan with family or friends.

Quick facts about Kitaadumi
General info
What to know before visiting Kitaadumi
What to expect in Kitaadumi County
Kitaadumi County is a destination where outdoor & sports activities, parks & gardens and guided tours dominate visitor choices, and demand spikes strongly at certain times of year. Klook booking data shows a pronounced seasonal rhythm, with a clear busy spell and a long quieter stretch through late summer and early autumn.
When to visit and how prices move
Demand peaks in January, while the quietest months are in August and September according to Klook booking data. Prices, however, don’t follow demand exactly: the priciest month by Klook bookings is August, while prices fall steadily after that and reach their lowest typical level in March. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for March or the late-winter window; for big-event atmosphere and the busiest vibe, travel in January when demand is highest.
Tips for travellers from Singapore
Most visitors here book around five days in advance on average, with many purchases still possible at short notice, so a flexible, short-notice plan works well. If you’re travelling in January’s peak, consider locking in key outdoor activities a couple of weeks earlier to secure spots. Use Klook to compare typical options for outdoor activities and parks so you can pick the best fit for your schedule.
