Tateyama Kurobe Snow Wall 2026 Festival 1 Day Bus Tour from Nagoya
2026/05/08
We departed from Nagoya at 8:00 AM by tour bus to Murodo. There were two rest stops along the way where you could buy snacks and drinks and use the restrooms. Lunch boxes were provided. Although the journey was long, this day trip was the most convenient if you didn't want to arrange your own transportation and still wanted to visit Murodo. There were also two rest stops on the return trip, and we arrived back at Nagoya Station at approximately 8:30 PM. Thank you to the tour leader and the two drivers!
