Interesting tour in Nagano.. - Outstanding day! Malik, our driver/guide, was excellent. His English was very good and he was attentive & always ready to help to what we wanted to see and do.The Zenjoki Temple has different five types of shrines also have alot of different number of buddahs. We went to many temples in Kyoto however we had not encountered a temple as large and interesting as this one. We also enjoyed the local Japanese festival during the trip at the temple which was a rare experience for us to visualize the authentic Japanese culture. All in all an outstanding day. We are really happy with the service as it is value of money doing this tour.

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.
