Easy booking through Klook. Super easy redemption at the airport. Seat reservation: No problem at the machine. But not always necessary, sometimes we just rode in the unreserved car. Staff always very friendly. We used it in Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Hiroshima. Everything worked out great.

Price: Very worth it. The value is 30,000 yen, but I actually used 69,000 yen. Having a pass makes me not worry. Plus, I got a discounted price from Klook.

Using the JR East Nagano-Niigata Area Pass this time was super convenient, with unlimited Shinkansen rides for 5 days. You can use it to travel all the way from Tokyo to Karuizawa, Nagano, and Niigata, which saved a lot on transportation costs. The best part is being able to reserve seats, making it easy to travel with luggage. It's perfect for people who enjoy in-depth travel or exploring north from Tokyo. The pass is very cost-effective, and I'd like to use it again next time!

A good option for red-eye flights or those traveling with elderly or young children. Narita Airport Bus Stop 16 is located just a short walk to the left from the exit. Show the QR code to the staff, then line up and wait. The driver will help load your luggage, and passengers can take any available seat. The bus ride is about 2.5 hours to a rest stop, where there's a 30-minute break. You can use the restroom or buy something to eat for the ride. After that, it's about another hour's drive to the Prince Hotel West Wing lobby. 👍🏻

This Nagano day trip was incredibly packed and complete, offering a perfect blend of nature, culture, and local experiences. Visiting the serene Togakushi Shrine and seeing the snow monkeys up close at Jigokudani Monkey Park were absolute highlights. What truly made the tour exceptional was our guide’s consistently positive attitude, professionalism, and clear time management, which kept the day enjoyable and stress-free.
Because all participants were respectful of the designated meetup times, we avoided unnecessary waiting and were able to fit in the sake culture experience, which added even more value to an already full itinerary. Overall, it was a well-organized, smooth, and rewarding tour that made the most out of a single day in Nagano.

It was an excellent and fun experience going on the tour. The guides (Dillon and Brett) were very warm and welcoming, always looking out for everyone, making sure that everyone is having an amazing time. Have to give a big thumbs up to Dillon for making the stops very interesting with all the details and stories behind the places, like the sake brewing and temples

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

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!
