Hello. Setsuko here. I specialize in tours of Nagano and Tokyo, but I can actually take you...

I love Nagano, not only because it's my home prefecture, but also because it really does have it all. I love its beautiful alpine scenery, Edo-era post-towns, famous castle, modern art museums, ancient temples, and snow-monkey wildlife park. It's also a place for all seasons. There's skiing in winter, hiking in summer, viewing the leaves in autumn, and having a picnic under the blossom trees in spring. I'm a skier myself, as well as a hiker, mountain climber, and rider. I enjoy every environment, which is why I look forward to showing all of it to you. This tour can be custom-made. You can, for example, do a couple of the highlight activities in one day, though It takes two days, or preferably three, to see them all. Please refer to the list in the itinerary below for suggestions. All of these sights are world-class, and they're by no means the only ones. I'm very happy to recommend what works as I've had a lot of experience meeting travelers needs and making suitable itineraries for them.
Among Nagano's scenic highlights, I'd like to list a few of my favorites: . the Snow Monkey Wildlife Park (the only one in the world where wild macaques bathe in a hot spring) . Zenko-ji (a 7th-century Buddhist temple and one of the few places in Japan that pilgrims still visit) . Obuse (a charming village where Hokusai lived and painted towards the end of his life) . Matsumoto Castle (the oldest castle in Japan - over 400 years and a National Treasure) . Azumino Wasabi Farm (the biggest producer in Japan, both scenic in itself and set at the foot of the Northern Alps) . Kamikochi (a beautiful mountain valley at the foot of the Alps and a top hiking spot) . Tsumago-juku (an Edo-era post town, now restored to its original state, and part of the Nakasendo Trail; the 3-4 hour walk from here to Magome is very famous) . Hakuba (a world-standard ski resort in the Northern Alps) . Okushiga (another skiing spot, famous for its powder snow) . Karuizawa (a lovely resort town at the foot of a live volcano)
