The visit requires a forest walk of more than 30 minutes each way from the parking area to the park entrance. The path may be snowy or icy, so a moderate level of fitness and suitable footwear are required.
Guests must not touch, feed, or approach the monkeys closely. Staring directly at them is also discouraged, as it may provoke aggressive behavior. Photography is allowed from a safe distance.

In case of heavy traffic, poor weather, or road closures, the tour operator may adjust the itinerary or timing for safety reasons. Any changes will be communicated on the day of the tour.
The trip was fun. The tour bus was full. The food was well prepared and delicious. Ken, our tour guide was friendly and proactive. He had extra shoes pads for the tour members which helped us tremendously to walk on the icy and muddy trail up and down the mountain to see the snow monkeys. Thank you, Ken!

Nature and animal lovers - this is a must do tour
This tour was well worth it. Although a long drive from Tokyo to Nagano, we had 2 stops on the way (rest stop and lunch).
Adequate time was given at each stop, and lunch was very enjoyable and authentic. The snow monkey park was definitely a highlight and thoroughly enjoyed watching the monkeys interact with each other, grooming or playing. Plenty of opportunities to take photos or videos and all visitors that I observed were respectful. The walk up the mountain to the hot springs took approximately 30minutes and there was plenty of snow and ice, as well as sloshy mud during our visit.
Highly recommend this tour if you'd like to experience seeing snow monkeys in their natural habitat.
