Hot Spring Bathing Monkeys - One of the must visit place in Nagano region. Best experience. As my wife & I participated in this trip we had amazing experience . Our driver Malik had fluent English skills was also accommodating & friendly. Lunch meal was great. Trail up to the mountain is quite lengthy but amazing views. Finally Monkeys amazing & visualising them closely was best part of the tour. We Highly recommend Smile tours as they delivered their best to make our trip comfortable and relaxed.

Great tour - The tour is definitely pricey but you get what you pay for. I was contacted by the tour company and the driver one day before the tour. They were professional and efficient. Our driver Sajid was personable and accommodating. We would recommend friends to book this tour in the future.

Highly recommended - We took one day trip to snow Monkey from Hakuba with Malik as our driver. Malik was really fantastic! accommodating with changes to the time at each itinerary. He was also aware of BEST photo spots at each attraction ! Apart from this he is really good photographer too, so we have amazing memories to with us. Snow monely is very awesome and it was fun to see Monkeys closely though it was a long walk to the park. Also the lunch was really delicious and location of the restaurant was great. Highly recommend this to everyone visiting Nagano or Hakuba!!!

Exciting tour! - Sajid was an excellent driver & professional driver as guide. He arrived bit early while picking us up and took us to Snow monkey park initially. Visualizing monkeys so closely was amazing & exciting after that we had lunch, at Monzen terrace that served excellent healthy lunch. We ended up with Zenko-ji Temple which was also wonderful and have amazing shopping street as well. Overall, Sajid was respectful, accomodating & professional driver. Arigato gozaimashita to Smile team. Hope to see you soon again.
