★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,020 reviews · from $151Our pick

See Nagano’s Zenko-ji Temple, taste local sake, enjoy hot pot, and meet wild snow monkeys on this well-planned full-day tour.

“Fantastic Snow Monkey experience. The visit to the temple and sake tasting were a bonus. Lunch was really good and enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Definitely bring comfortable shoes with good traction. The path is super icy so definitely buy the crampon spikes they sell at the gift shop. The bonus of going with this tour is that they provide tickets and you can bypass the long ticket line. The hike up to see the monkeys is a hike so be prepared. Overall a great experience and the guides were great and knowledgeable. Definitely will recommend to friends and family.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews

Review of Nagano’s private Snow Monkey Park, Zenkoji Temple, Shibu Onsen, Obuse, and Matsushiro tour from Tokyo or Nagano.

“Amazing Snow Monkey Tour with Sikandar! Our private tour from Tokyo to the Snow Monkey Park was fantastic! Our driver, Sikandar, was incredibly friendly, professional, and accommodating.
