Best monkey attraction

Published on Dec, 2023

Close up voews of monkeys playing, preening each other, bathing in onsen. While you have to stay 1 meter away, they are not afraid of you and freely roam around you. We went in nov when the 2 day snow monkey pass was npt available. Can still ride the snow monkey express bus no.23 from outside nagano station whoch takes about 50 min- 1 way 1800 yen by visa or cash. Then 800 yen for admission to park. Takes about 30 min to walk from bus stop to park. Snow monkey park was the biggest highlight for our trip to japan/ nagano

Great experience

Published on Apr, 2023

This was a great trip - long travel time though. Tour guide was professional even when we were stuff at the traffic at night, she still organized our stop for rest room. I would recommend this tour.

Great value for money

Published on Feb, 2023

It was a whole day event. Check in was efficient. Ride was comfortable. Lunch was great. The drive to the snow monkey park was far and the walk could not tricky with the snow especially walking down hill - could be very slippery - Suggested to buy the spikes for the shoes which the guide would offer to you. The snow park was not big but it was cute to see the monkeys and if you are luck and patient, you might see them in the onsen. Ride back was long as we got into the traffic so suggest you do not plan anything in the evening. Overall, it was a great experience. Worth the money.

Day trip to see the Snow Monkeys

Published on Jan, 2019

When I think of Japan, Mt. Fuji, sumo wrestlers, sushi, kabuki, and of course snow monkeys! So I had to see before I left this beautiful country. It was well organized, stops along the way, lunch, and a walk through the forest. On your way back to the bus I recommend getting a muffin from the cafe, they were delicious.. they have other things such as chicken and fries, etc. All in all it was a long day but worth it and the tour guide was very nice. Also, bring something to entertain yourself because the bus ride is about 4 hours there and then you come back, so you'll be on the bus quite a bit.

Lots of cute monkeys

Published on Dec, 2018

The long bus trip was definitely worth seeing all the cute monkeys. The lunch was great and the views going to the monkey park were amazing. Our tour guide KITAZAWA Kenji was very friendly and accommodating
