    What date is the best chance to see the snow monkey? how far from Kyoto to Osaka international airport?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid PremiumOperatorWritten July 2025

      The best chance to see the snow monkeys is when you visit Jigokudani Monkey Park, especially during the winter months when they're often seen soaking in the hot springs. Also, the distance from Kyoto to Osaka International Airport (KIX) is around 49 km.

    Asked on December 7th, 2023

    Do you stay in hotels on this tour? If so, what grade hotels? 3 star? 4 star? I am a solo traveler. Do you have a single room option? If so, how much extra does that cost? I am a vegetarian? Can you accommodate that if I indicate this when I book the tour?

    Meals
    Single supplement
    • Intrepid PremiumOperatorWritten December 2023

      The hotels used for the trip accommodations would be between 3-4 star hotels. The single supplement is subjected to availability and the cost for the single supplement would be USD 1340. We can arrange the food as per your dietary requirements. Once you make the booking do let us know on the dietary details.
