Thank you to RICO, our kind and attentive tour leader, for his patient explanations and clear English pronunciation, which made for a wonderful experience. The two drivers were also very professional and friendly, with excellent driving skills, making the journey smooth. Thank you also to the man who speaks Chinese and was very helpful at the meeting point. It was a fantastic trip; the snow monkeys were adorable. Although the journey was a bit long, the snow hut scenery was beautiful. It's a pity we only had a 30-minute stop. We made it back to Shinjuku safely before 8:30 PM. If we could have stayed an extra 10-15 minutes, the activity time would have been more ample. Overall, highly recommended!
Suddenly changed the one-day tour, can be changed to see the fireworks tour, to the suburbs of the trip 10 minutes convenient, their own car may take two hours or find the way to waste a lot of time, following the tour is a good choice, Xiao Zhan guide explained 10 points clearly, kind, the overall arrangement can. Next time you Japan will join other tours. Feel the different landscapes.
The place is women-friendly with tattoos. Although the staff will tell you before you enter that you can't have tattoos, the instructions say that some women with tattoos up to 30*30 cm are allowed in. There are women-only sleeping areas, and the restaurant food is delicious. Checking in at 1:30 am and staying until 12:30 pm the next day, including meals, for less than 5000 yen is a great deal. Soaking in the outdoor hot spring at midnight while watching the snowflakes fall was incredibly relaxing.
