What to expect
【Todai-ji Temple】 As one of Japan’s most iconic temples, Todai-ji Temple attracts numerous tourists from overseas every year. It is also famous for housing the world’s largest bronze Buddha statue, known as the “Great Buddha of Nara.” Said to have been built to ward off a widespread epidemic 1300 years ago, the Great Buddha successfully brought the epidemic to an end, bringing peaceful days to the people and has been at the heart of Japanese faith to this day.
【Imanishi Seibei Shoten】 We offer a sake tasting set at a sake shop run by the brewery of “Harushika,” a brand famous for its dry sake. Try tasting the subtle differences in flavor that even Japanese people find difficult to distinguish.
【Nara Beer Naramachi Brewery】 Nara Prefecture is also famous as a region of sake, with temples that were the first in Japan to obtain sake brewing licenses and shrines that enshrine the gods of sake brewing. You can enjoy beer tasting at a craft beer brewery. (The tasting set fee is included in the tour price.)

My guide George was a very nice person. He not only showed me factual details of all the sites we visited, but also the livelihood of locals. I learned a lot about Nara because of him.
An excellent experience! There was great communication starting a few days beforehand. I went with a friend, and the three places we visited were almost empty, creating a calm atmosphere, and the area felt more local. I definitely learned a lot. I highly recommend this tour, especially for small groups. The communication was fantastic. Thank you very much :)
wonder guide and wonderful walking tour… our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly… took lots of pictures for memories and we learned so much about everything on the tour… he recommended a wonderful beer that I enjoyed greatly at a beautiful brewery… the entire day was amazing and will definitely recommend this tour.

George was a great guide and really gave us a wonderful Nar
It was great to be able to listen to and understand the explanation well. It was even better to be able to receive a guide like this just for our family trip.
The service is good. Although I may not be so fluent in Chinese, I am very enthusiastic about telling everything about the scenic spots. It is a great travel experience.
