Snow on Snow Monkeys

Published on Dec, 2024

Bhatti did an awesome tour, nice and relaxed. Gave me plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the walks. He also was a good chatter on the drives between locations.

Great way to do it!

Bhatti was great and personable and communicated arrangements very well. He was incredibly flexible with the itinerary and accommodated our requests. We loved the whole day.

Excellent service

Published on Apr, 2024

Our driver was extremely kind and helpful. He helped our younger son navigate the walk up to the snow monkeys and was extremely patient. He let us set the pace and gave us flexibility for how we wanted to schedule the activities throughout the day. He also allowed us to stop as often as we wanted during the travel to and from Nagano. He provided background information and was just wonderful to deal with. We would highly recommend this private tour as it provides flexibility for the family and the service was excellent.
