Nara Prefecture

We just completed the full-day tour with Willa, and it was an absolute blast! The highlights of the day were definitely Nara Park with the adorable deer, the serene bamboo forest complex, and the stunning Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. Willa was an amazing guide - trilingual in Chinese, English, and Japanese - making sure everyone felt included and informed. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious! A few suggestions for the company: consider trimming down the time spent at the bamboo forest and focusing on specific attractions within the complex. Having Willa guide us through and share insights would've made it even more special. On the flip side, we felt a bit rushed at the shrine - maybe allocate a bit more time there? The deer at Nara Park were a highlight, and feeding them was a thrill (just be prepared for them to get a bit pushy!). We brought our lunch, which worked out great - we'd definitely suggest others do the same to make the most of your time. Highly recommend!

I usually don't use tour but I'm so glad that I signed up for this tour. This is a very well run tour and go to many beautiful sites and giving you enough time to enjoy the places. Our tour guide is wonderful and helpful. Before we arrive to each site, our tour guide will give us history a d high light of each place. Give us time to explore ourselves and let us know when to go back to the bus. My wife and I really liked this tour and highly recommended to anyone who might be interested to go to those beautiful Temple.

I arrived at Kani Doraku (5 mins walk from Starbucks/Glico sign) around 7:30am. Just an observation, the "easy go vest staff" does not know what tour is held on that day as they will say it's not my tour when you show your email from Klook and they manually check the guest rather showing the QR code. The trip was smooth - Zizi gave us details of each stop. 1st stop was - Bamboo Forest, Tenoji shrine & Togetsukyō Bridge KYOTO (2hours free time + lunch) since it's so busy/crowded not enough time to squeeze for a seat in lunch. 2nd stop - Nara Deer Park for one hour (since the parking was far, roughly 20mins walk both ways depending on your pacing) 3rd stop - back in Kyoto, Fushimi Inari Taisha for one hour. Since it was traffic, we got back in Osaka around 7pm. I will highly recommend this tour since it's hassle-free, you just need to sit back, enjoy and relax. The only disadvantage is if you want to spend more time in each locations then book a tour for each. Thanks Zizi! Sayonara 😘

I had a really memorable day thanks to our guide. We visited Nara, Uji, and Fushimi Inari, and the whole trip was smooth and comfortable from start to finish. She has a very cool and confident vibe — short hair, a relaxed style, and a calm, clear way of speaking. She can switch between Japanese, Mandarin, and English effortlessly, which made everything so easy and natural. Her explanations were simple and vivid, not boring at all, and she shared small details that made each place feel alive. I also really appreciated her respectful and open personality. She didn’t try to perform or push anything — she just let the experience breathe, which made the day feel genuine and relaxed. If you’re looking for someone who’s professional, chill, and really knows how to guide without being overbearing, I’d definitely recommend her. Great energy, great pace, great company.

We enjoyed our Nara & Kyoto day tour so much. The shabu shabu was delicious and the spots they bring us to visit are all fantastic spots, not just great for photo taking but also to enjoy as a family. We had 2 guides in he bus which is great. Both Paulo and Mr Liu are great guides and explained the history of each places well. Overall is great and highly recommend.

This was an amazing tour! Tina communicated so well before hand and on the tour. She suggested spots to visit, restaurants and shopping with google locations so it was super easy to follow. I am traveling with 2 adults and 2 kids (12 & 8) and they also enjoyed it. 😃

Had such a great time on the Nara & Kyoto day trip! The timing was really good and didn’t feel rushed at all. Jack explained everything clearly in both English and Mandarin. Loved the cute deers in Nara and the beautiful temples in Kyoto. Really fun, relaxing, and definitely worth it!

Joana our tour guide was very communicative of the whole experience. she shared her number and messaged us the day before to confirm the meeting point. Even though we were late we were able to join the group at Nara Park where she met us and gave us the crackers for the park and sending us the location of the meeting point. the tour is child friendly and allowed us to be able to see places we wouldn’t have been able to on our own. we had a 3 year old in our group who enjoyed all the stops and Nara park being his favourite. Being able to visit Uji freely was also nice and Joana sent us the location of where we had to be. as a group travelling with a child this was suitable and easy enough for us to make the most of our time in Japan😊

It was a wonderful visit. The meeting point was easy to reach, the driver drove safely, and the guide was very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The Christmas park is beautiful, but the Great Buddha is even more so.
