Reviews
The tour was excellent, especially with our guide, Mai. Mai made the tour perfect and was very funny and friendly. Very informative. Nice air-conditioned bus. Good value as temple access paid for, tea ceremony (with match, cookie & chocolate). Flexible, allowing people to choose half day, lunch or not, guided or more free time. Due to it being summer, it was 36 degrees (feeling like 41), so the only thing I would change is including more sit-down breaks, shade & less walking for tours during summer.
Very pleasant guide, present when needed. Practical for visiting Nara in a day and seeing the essentials, we would have just liked to spend a little more time in certain places (deer/temple).
An extraordinary experience, our guide Den is the best in the world, every site is wonderful, you get to see everything, you make the most of the day and it's not too tiring for children and seniors. I definitely recommend it.
We had a wonderful time with our tour guide Ciel! She shared lots of interesting trivia about the places we were visiting. We enjoyed feeding the deer at Nara and learning about matcha tea. Ciel was very friendly and approachable. It was such a fun and memorable day! Highly recommend this tour!
we are a group of 3 friends and wanted to visit Nara while in Kyoto. this tour is perfect as it also took us to Uji where matcha first begun and saw the original store that started selling matcha 16 generations ago! it was cool that it includes a tea ceremony and our English-speaking tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable
Great tour would recommend it was very interesting and entertaining even between the sights
Hiriko, the tour guide, was such a sweetheart: prepared, gentle, available to our requests and needs. We had a lovely day in Nara and Uji city with an elegant Japanise lunch. Thanks for all the turism advice and the tea ceremony experience.
Ciel was Amazing!! so friendly, informative and helpful. Great Day for the whole family
