Hello! I'm arriving at Tokyo January 1 from the US, and are looking for help on what to do the next days.
I had planned taking my 8 year old to see snow for the first time. I was wondering which option would be better for playing with the snow/sledding:
–Option A: Stay at Nagano and head to hakuba, snow monkeys, Matsumoto, shinhotaka ropeway
–Option B: Stay at Karuizawa and head one day to see snow monkeys, play in the snow the rest
The dates are Jan 2-6; I was planning on getting the Hokuriku arch pass to get from there to Osaka/Kyoto on the 6 or 7 after a trip to Takayama.
What do you think is the best option?
