Description

Leave Tokyo for a day and head north to Nagano Prefecture! The departure from the Shinjuku area (LOVE OBJECT) is scheduled for 08:00. Please ensure you are gathered within 07:45. Please note that the bus journey to Jigoku Valley takes up to three and a half hours, with two to three stops at service areas en route. Upon arrival, enjoy a delicious Japanese-style set meal of beef sukiyaki for lunch! Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to see the famous monkeys of Jigoku Valley! They are accustomed to human presence, so you will be able to take some incredible photos. However, remember that touching, staring directly at them or feeding them is prohibited in order to ensure their safety and well-being. If you travel between late January and late February , your tour will also include a visit to the magical Kamakura snow huts. We are scheduled to arrive back in Tokyo's Shinjuku district at around 8 pm (9 pm during the period when we will stop by the Kamakura snow huts).
