Wildlife Viewing Weekend in Nagano - A chance to see Asiatic Black Bears, Japanese Serow and other wildlife in their natural habitat!

Join Nature Guide Richard Pearce and local experts for a special weekend of wildlife viewing in the Karuizawa area, just over one hour by bullet train from Tokyo!
We are teaming up for a special wildlife weekend extravaganza with Picchio Wildlife Research Center, a leading group of Asiatic Black Bear conservationists, researchers and nature guides for a great chance to observe some of Japan’s most fascinating and charismatic animals in their natural environment.
Our special partnerships mean that the cost of the tour is actually cheaper than if you book everything by yourself. So why not join up with fellow nature lovers for a wild(life) weekend?!

Price: 75,000 yen, including tours and accommodation
Places: 7
When: September 28th - 29th 2024
PLEASE NOTE: Sightings are not 100 percent guaranteed. The animals we are trying to see are completely wild. However, we are maximising our chances by visiting areas they have frequently been seen before with leading experts.

Archery is Bhutan’s national sport and competitions can often be observed around the country. Did you know that hunting is illegal (as is the killing of any animal by any method) in the kingdom? This is because of the Bhutanese people’s deeply Buddhist beliefs. In fact, more than half of the kingdom is protected for the good of nature.
