Thank you for choosing our tour at Meiji Jingu and Harajuku on January 28. We welcomed 4 guests from Netherland and UK. I hope all of you enjoyed and shared interesting conversations with us during the tour. As promised, group photos and snapshots are attached to remember the fun times we had.
It was cloudy and so cold due to cold air from Siberia. However, one of our guests had no Jacket just T-shut and shorts. We were so surprised by his patience and strength!
I often hear from my guests that they go to see the snow monkeys. Snow monkeys live in the Jigokudani yaen kohen (Snow Monkeys Park) close to Shiga-Kogen Ski-area in Nagano Prefecture. It takes about 5 hours from Tokyo by car. The road to the Shiga-Kogen is very icy and deep snow. If you go there by car rental, you must rent a 4wd vehicles equipped with snow tires. Then, visit website of Nexco East and check the road conditions. Even though Japanese are frequently involved in traffic accidents. In addition, the way from the park entrance to the snow monkeys place is very narrow and icy cliff. You need a snow shoes. Sneakers are not allowed, so please rent shoes from the shop near the park entrance. Then let’s go to the snow monkey’s place! The Monkeys are waiting for you at the hot springs. It is so lovely!
