Take a deep dive into the history of this temple city. A pilgrimage site for over 1000 years, Nagano city has hosted emperors, samurai lords, famous monks, artists and hundreds of thousands of devoted pilgrims. More recently, it hosted the 1998 Olympic Games. Join me in visiting ancient temples and battle sites, enjoy delicious soba and sake, and really get a feel for what this city has to offer.

Important

I can guide you in the central-northern part of Nagano, particularly around Nagano city, Matsumoto, and Ueda. Depending on the date and your request, I may be able to guide in other areas.

As we will be spending a lot of time outside, please dress appropriately for the weather, including rain, snow or sun. The tour may be cancelled for safety if there is extreme weather such as a typhoon or snowstorm. Please let me know if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions. While the described tour has a long walk up to the temple, we can also skip some of the places on the way to Zenkoji and take the bus instead.

Cancellation Policy

Free cancellation - 30 days prior to meeting time
50% Refund - 15 to 29 days prior to meeting time
