Visit the Snow Monkeys of Jigokudani, named after the plumes of steam shooting out of the ground. Not as scary as it sounds, however, it is a truly memorable experience safe for all ages.
After visiting the Monkeys we offer you an exclusive look into the historic Onsen Village of Shibu. This village was frequented by Samurai, poets, and travellers alike. Good fortune is said to come to those who bathe in each of the Onsens in town.
As you stroll through the narrow streets lined with traditional buildings, some hundreds of years old, you might just get to see some more wild monkeys as they try to scavenge food!
Our professional, experienced, English-speaking staff can offer a bilingual service that ensures peace of mind and an unforgettable day tour to your already memorable holiday in Japan!

5.00Despite some rain, my husband and I had a fantastic afternoon tour with Tommy. We were the only two participants which made it even better. We started off at the Monkey Park and were able to see a few monkeys right away, which was awesome. We stopped at the cafe for some apple pie and ice cream on the way down, highly recommend. Our stop at Tamamura Honten was a nice bonus. Tried some great beer and sake. And the walk through Shibu Onsen was perfect. It’s definitely worth a visit. Tommy was our guide and he was great. He was waiting for us at the train station ready to go. Super knowledgeable and gave us great tips and great info throughout the day. Highly recommend booking this tour. Despite the weather we had a fantastic time.
Awesome adventure with the Snow Monkeys

5.00What a magical day we had visiting the snow monkeys. It exceeded my expectations. Our tour guide was awesome. We enjoyed an apple ice cream on the way down from the monkeys and then a delicious well deserved beer at a local brewery. The tour was well-rounded and I would highly suggest you check it out. Keep in mind that the monkeys don’t come down to the hot pools everyday until mid November when the weather gets colder. We were there November 6th.
Wonderful tour

5.00Tommy provided a wonderfully informative tour along a forest path lined with Japanese cedars to the snow Monkey park. He took us on a stroll through the Ossen village where he delighted us with stories and facts. Along the drive he described the abundant regional fruit, vegetation and wildlife. Wonderful tour.
There is a lot of walking...

5.00Tommy was a great tour guide! So fortunate to have someone who was willing to take the time to go into great detail about tour stops but also answer all of the questions of our two young boys! Since it happened that it was only our family of four, we were able spend more or less time at spots based on our interests. Very accommodating. It was nice to spend some time in the more rural and agricultural parts of Japan after we started our trip in Tokyo and Kyoto. Met Tommy at Iilwaya station after taking train from Nagano station. Pickup and dropoff at station were seamless!
Excellent tour and tour guide

5.00It’s breathtakingly beautiful. You can’t imagine the landscapes you’ll see. And the monkeys are really fun too. Very nice experience with a very kind guide who know a lot!

5.00Well worth it! Our guide, Tommy, was the best. He was very knowledgeable and provided great information throughout the tour. Most importantly, he was so easy to chat with. He was also funny, patient, and great with our toddler. Oh, and of course the highlight, the snow monkeys, were incredible to see. I underestimated how unique and awe inspiring seeing these monkeys in their hot spring valley would be. I would recommend this tour to everybody. It was also very easy to take the 10 minute Shinkansen from Nagano to the meeting point at Iiyama Station.

4.00I was disappointed that I had to take a train to the nearest city to Nagano. Both parties were staying in Nagano. I would have paid more for a pick up at Nagano Station.
Wonderful Excursion to the Snow Monkeys.
