Ting å gjøre i Nagano

What to bring: Drinks and snacks, waterproof shoes, waterproof jacket, umbrella, hat, phone cross-body strap, backpack, wet wipes. We went on a small tour with our Alpan guide, just 11 of us. It started at 8:00 AM and ended at 1:30 PM. First, don't go to the snow wall; go to the pond first and walk as far as you can. You can see everything at the snow wall in about 25 minutes round trip. You can see the pond with melted ice, the hot springs in the distance, and if you're lucky, even the mascot bird. The bird poses well, so you can comfortably take photos. Although it was a very quick tour, I'm satisfied. I'm thinking of going again personally during the upcoming winter season. Alpan guides are the best! If you get an Alpan guide, your trip will be much easier.

Turen var superfin. Den ble gjennomført selv om vi bare var 5 i gruppen. Tempoet føltes helt riktig for både snøapene og helligdommene. Helen, reiselederen vår, var også veldig imøtekommende og vennlig.

the most beautiful place I have been to in Japan. the beginner/first time visitor trek allotted 1.5hrs is more than enough time to take photos/videos along the ways and reach the Bridge where restaurants are. you can have lunch here. try the apple pie and apple ice cream.

Vi likte denne turen veldig godt, og kirsebærblomstringen i Takato var fantastisk. Guiden vår, Carp Feng, var utmerket og tålmodig, og gjorde turen enda mer minneverdig. Vi anbefaler denne turen på det sterkeste til alle under kirsebærblomstringssesongen.

We had a great time on this tour and are so glad we booked it! If we could give extra stars, we would. Carp was such a great tour guide — so engaging, friendly, and informative. We appreciated how kind and considerate she was with pointing out where the stamps were when she saw we were collecting them + making sure we were on time but also giving us a lot of grace and space to take in everything. There were clear instructions and communication on how to meet, what the schedule was going to be, and they even provided us food at the end of our long day. Moreover, the Tateyama-Kurobe Alpine Route was BEAUTIFUL. We were in awe of everything and truly believe we had such a great time thanks to Carp. She even helped us get into another tour with her last minute for a few days later to Hitachi Seaside Park! The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route tour was definitely one of the highlights of our Japan trip. Thank you Carp!

Møtestedet på Nagano stasjon var veldig praktisk. Guiden vår var veldig vennlig og ansvarlig. Ved hvert stopp sørget de for at alle deltakerne var til stede. Vakker natur. Vi byttet til forskjellige transportmidler for å nå Alpene. Anbefales på det sterkeste.

Dette var en fantastisk trio av landsbyer å besøke, spesielt om vinteren. Gokayama er stille og overjordisk! Papir-washi-lagingen var supermorsom, guiden og sjåføren vår var konsekvente og pålitelige, bilen i seg selv var komfortabel, og naturen mellom stedene var helt fantastisk. Absolutt verdt å betale for å oppleve den enorme skjønnheten i denne regionen uten bryet med å kjøre eller komme seg rundt på andre måter.
