Coisas para fazer em Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park

We had a brilliant time on the tour. Taketo was a fantastic tour guide who was knowledgeable, engaging and spoke great English. He really made the day for us. The monkey park and vineyard were highlights of the day although all the locations we visited were stunning. I would absolutely recommend this tour to any other visitors!

This is a great way to see Nagano and the snow monkeys. The tour is often self-directed as you are brought to a place, told a little about the history and architecture, and then given the rest of the time to wander. My tour guide seemed a little nervous, but he did a great job. Definitely worth the money.

It was a long drive, but totally worth it to see the snow monkeys. Our driver Atif was very accommodating. Overall it was an excellent experience. Just know that you're in for about 8hrs in the car and 2-3hrs of activity.

It's totally worth the effort to see the Snow Monkeys (Japanese Macaques) at Jigokudani Monkey Park, Nagano. These macaques (happily bathing in the steaming onsen) don't mind the presence of humans around them. But be ready to walk the ascending unpaved trail (approximately 1.2km to 1.5km, one way). Also, the visit to Togakushi Shrine gives us a feeling of serenity with very tall/old cedar trees lining both sides of the trail.

This was a great outing. It was a long bus ride, but the bus did stop regularly to allow us to stretch our legs and use the facilities. The tour guide was kind and did a lot of information sharing on the bus sound system (although it was very difficult to make out a lot of what he was saying - but he was making his best effort). The lunch stop for sukiyake was so delicious!! And the visit to the snow was great! It was a long walk uphill and up lots of stairs - but well worth the effort. We had sufficient amount of time to explore the ground and see the monkeys in this environment: both along the stream's edge and in the hot springs. There was staff around who would feed the monkey's regularly. It was fun to sit and watch the monkeys walk past us and move around all the people freely. A great experience (albeit a long one!) I would recommend.

We have had a really enjoyable afternoon to see the snow monkeys. We were met by Tommy who is an absolute font of knowledge and information to not just the Monkey park but to everything on the surrounding areas we passed on our short journey. There was not a single thing that he could not answer. He was extremely friendly . We were in the minibus that provided a good standard of comfort . Tommy was a good driver in which we felt extremely safe. Thankyou 👍
