What you can expect

❑ A Special Day in Nagano

Enjoy a full-day journey through two of Nagano’s most iconic highlights. Begin with a forest walk to observe wild snow monkeys swimming in hot springs. For lunch, avoid crowded tourist eateries and instead let your local guide recommend handmade soba, mountain-view cafés, or hidden favourites tailored to your taste. In the afternoon, visit a historic sake brewery dating back to the Meiji era for a guided tasting, then stroll through the charming streets nearby. Conclude your day at Zenkoji, one of Japan’s oldest and most sacred temples, exploring at a relaxed pace.

❑ Why Private?

Because it’s private, your tour can be flexibly tailored to your pace and interests. Reaching the Snow Monkey Park by public transport requires long transfers and time-consuming connections. With your own private car and English-speaking guide, travel and dining are smooth and stress-free. You’ll also be guided to lunch spots that avoid crowds, ensuring comfort and authenticity.

❑ A Personalised Journey

Our tours go beyond simply visiting famous sites. With careful planning, we avoid crowded places and curate unique local experiences that only insiders can share. Special moments from your journey are captured with a dedicated camera, and photos are gifted to you after the tour as lasting memories.
