[@Celinelikedion]

every stop of your trip has felt so magical, I’m loving these vlogs 💗 those monkeys are adorable!!

[@WesleyAnna]

wow I'm so happy you've been following along! ☺ and yes that baby monkey in particular changed me i swear 😭

[@nateshf9303]

Went there last winter and did all 9 public baths. What an experience.

[@WesleyAnna]

We didn't get to do the public paths (my partner has a full body suit of tattoos lol) but I'm glad to hear you experienced them all :)

The building you passed with the onsen baths on the hike up to the Monkey Park is a Ryokan that you can stay at and actually bathe with the monkeys.

[@WesleyAnna]

Yes!! Would’ve also been a great experience but we wanted to stay closer to town :)

Trying hard to be the next Michelle Choi. You go girl.

[@Samplers]

So good, thank you!

[@LucyWu-f1y]

Those monkeys look like daruma dolls 🥹 (so cute!!!) Are they there all year round?

[@WesleyAnna]

The baby ones had me screaming 🥺 and yes they are! But I highly recommend going in snow season, way more magical than trudging through mud

[@bettylim6914]

Hi the Ryokan looks awesome, could you please let me know the name of the Ryokan in Shibu Onsen? Thanks.

[@IrenesWorld2024]

Love watching your vlog❤

[@RosariaBriffa]

Hello 😊love your video, thank you. I was just wondering if you could share how much it cost to stay for the weekend please. I’m super excited to visit👏

[@WesleyAnna]

Our ryokan was on the nicer side and cost about $400/day? Including food and room and bath access

[@RosariaBriffa]

@@WesleyAnna Thank you 🙏

[@andrewsaghini8918]

What was the name of the Ryokan you stayed at? We are heading there next week.

[@WesleyAnna]

Kokuya! It's one of the biggest and oldest ryokans in town :)

Hi! I will be in Shibu Onsen in February. Mostly to snowboard. How is transportation like around the area? Im a bit nervous having to haul our snowboards around. Any tips would be so appreciated!

[@WesleyAnna]

It's very remote and transportation can be difficult unscheduled (there's specific shuttle busses that run infrequently and a train outside of town). If you're planning on walking places or taking cabs, you'll have a tough time.

[@jennifercampbell8939]

I understand they have high standards for hygiene, for example no tattoos. Was that a problem when visiting public onsens?

[@lordgrf]

what is the name of this place you staid in please?

[@WesleyAnna]
