Things to do in Tōdai-ji

I was really looking forward to the guide! Our guide, Oh Seok-bong! He was incredibly knowledgeable and witty, making the bus ride enjoyable and informative with his insights into Japanese culture. He guided us with such passion, and I highly recommend GOGODAY Tour. I used them in Fukuoka and was satisfied, so I plan to use them again for my next trip. My father and son both had a great time. Thank you for helping us create wonderful memories on our family trip ❤️

The rental store’s location is very convenient, just 4 mins by walk from Nara Kintetsu station. The staffs are professional and friendly. They have various kind of beautiful kimono and accessories. I booked kimono rental for couple plus 30 mins’ photograph shoot via Klook. The stylist is pretty efficient and kind. The photographer is good at guiding us to make nice postures. I’m satisfied with the service and pictures. The price is fair. It’s really worth for the money! I highly recommend people to experience the beauty of Nara with them ☺️❤️

Here's an honest and straightforward review of three major attractions in Shiga Prefecture: Shirahige Shrine, Biwako Terrace, and La Collina Omihachiman. 1. Shirahige Shrine Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I left feeling a bit disappointed. The torii gate in the water is located across the road, making it dangerous to cross and difficult to appreciate properly from a distance. The shrine itself doesn't offer much to see, so it's best suited as a quick stop. 2. Biwako Terrace This was definitely the highlight of my trip. The panoramic view of Lake Biwa from the terrace cafe was truly spectacular, and I was most satisfied with being able to relax amidst the expansive scenery. 3. La Collina Omihachiman It was so crowded that it was hard to leisurely soak in the unique atmosphere. The signature dessert, the confectionery, also tends to be a hit or miss in terms of taste. However, the grass-roofed buildings and the garden views were beautiful, making it an excellent spot for taking photos.

Absolutely loved this tour! Such a fun and well-organised day exploring Nara, Uji and Kyoto. Our guide, Lee, was friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole experience so enjoyable. We saw beautiful places, ate great food and made amazing memories. Highly recommend this tour—definitely worth it! 🇯🇵✨

Today we had the pleasure of having Ms. Yurika as our guide, and the experience was truly wonderful from start to finish. From the moment we boarded the bus, she provided clear and engaging explanations about the history of the places we visited. Throughout the day, Ms. Yurika demonstrated outstanding professionalism, kindness, and dedication. She remained attentive to the group at all times, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and well-informed. Her detailed explanations of the customs and traditions of each temple made the experience even more meaningful and enriching. She was always willing to help and made sure all our needs were met, which made us feel truly cared for. Thanks to her enthusiasm and knowledge, the tour was not only informative but also very enjoyable. My family and I had an amazing time, and this experience will remain unforgettable for us. We sincerely appreciate Ms. Yurika for her time and dedication in making this day so special. Thank you very much, Ms. Yurika

The tour was convenient because transportation and the itinerary were already organized for us. We were able to see many places without worrying about navigating trains and buses ourselves. The only downside was that the schedule felt a little rushed, so I would have loved more time at each location.

Richard the tour guide was helpful and responsive. The tour included beautiful views in Amanohashidate. Chairlift and Sky Cycle were a surreal experience at Amanohashidate Viewland. Boat ride was a fun experience feeding the Seagulls and Kites at Ine Bay.

I had so much fun, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish! Since it’s a self-guided tour, there was plenty of room for exploring on our own while still having the flexibility to enjoy the trip at our own pace. Our guide, HaoWen, was also very thoughtful and gave us souvenirs at the end of the trip. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Our guide was Lully. She was like an gurdian angel who took good care of us by sharing the history & culture and showed us all the beautiful places patiently and gladly. Our driver was fantastic too! We truly had a wonderful time and appreciated the tour very much! Wouldn’t be able to see so much pleasantly on our own. Even my 19 year-old daughter who is not fond with tours said this one was great!
