highly recommend this experience. had a great guide. the temple was beautiful and the sake tasting was great. and the monkeys were well worth the hike. it was raining so advise to not wear white sneakers like I did. but the monkeys were awesome to see.

My group and I loved this tour, it was very complete, the guides were very friendly and helpful, I would definitely book with them again, we will carry the experience in our hearts! 🫶🏻 After the snow monkeys we stayed in Yudanaka and our guide was kind enough to show us where we could find the bus, he even gave us prices and schedules, they really made us feel very safe, thank you very much Hiroshi San for the experience✨🙏🏻
