[One-Day Tour of Three Ancient Capitals in Kansai, Japan] World Heritage Sites Todai-ji Temple & Byodo-in Temple & Fushimi Inari Shrine's Thousand Torii Gates & Adorable Deer in Nara Park & Uji Matcha Gourmet Street (Departing from Osaka/Kyoto)

fiona was very good she explained the whole trip in details. The trip was well planned and we managed to complete all the three attractions that was carried out

It was a last minute booking just a night before and got picked on time at our hotel. The tour was full of interesting information of the different sites we're about to visit and thanks to our charming and friendly guide CC who even sang for us as we're heading back to Osaka. The interaction with the deer's at Nara park is one of the unforgettable experience with the dear bowing down their heads along with you. I just love it. Till next time Japan.

We'll arrive in Nara around 10 AM. I recommend having breakfast before we meet. Don't worry about not having enough time; this activity provides plenty of time to experience feeding the deer and exploring Todai-ji Temple's Great Buddha Hall (as long as you don't get stuck with the deer for too long, haha!). If you're quick, you can also visit the nearby Himuro Shrine to try the ice water fortune-telling. We'll arrive in Uji around noon. Our guide, Noa, is very thoughtful and always recommends famous local restaurants. You can have lunch first, then explore Byodo-in Temple, and afterwards, head to the Matcha Street for afternoon tea. If you still have energy, you can even make a quick trip to Uji Shrine to get the rabbit Goshuin stamp. The afternoon to early evening itinerary is at Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine. You can first visit and take photos at the Senbon Torii (Thousand Torii Gates), then grab some food and drinks nearby. What's more, the best part of this trip is that the tour bus offers a drop-off and pick-up service, so if you want to visit Nara or Uji and need to travel between different areas, you might want to consider this itinerary. That's all!

The itinerary was smooth, it's just a shame that there were too many people signed up today and the seats were too full. The tour guide, CC, was very friendly.

Our tour guide, CC, was excellent and very knowledgeable! The information and stories were captivating, but it would have been even better if the tour fee included admission to attractions and guided tours. I feel like we missed out on a lot, as we didn't even have time to visit Kasuga Grand Shrine or Uji Shrine. It's a shame we spent so much time at Fushimi Inari-taisha and still couldn't see everything.😔🐾

This itinerary has a moderate pace, allowing even seniors to enjoy a leisurely tour. (You can choose your drop-off point freely.) This time, we boarded in Kyoto and disembarked in Osaka. Since the initial meeting point was in Osaka, there was a bit of traffic on the way to Kyoto. No need to worry, just stay in touch with the tour guide. Many thanks to our kind tour guide, Sam (Xiao Wang), and driver Mr. Kiso Taiji! Although the start was slightly delayed due to traffic, they did not cut short any of our free time. We appreciate both of them! Our tour guide provided commentary on the attractions while we were on the bus. After getting off, you could either follow the guide to learn more or explore on your own. For the first attraction, if you want to visit Todai-ji Temple, you'll need to quickly buy tickets and do a speedy tour. Alternatively, you can choose to leisurely enjoy breakfast, feed the deer, and browse souvenir shops in Nara. For the three attractions in Uji (Byodo-in Temple, Uji Snack Street, and Uji Shrine), we recommend visiting just two to have more ample time. Near Uji Shrine, there's also a charming little rabbit shrine where you might encounter a friendly local guide who can help you find three little rabbits for good luck! By the time we reached Fushimi Inari Shrine, it was getting late. You can head straight to the Senbon Torii (Thousand Torii Gates) for photos (the lighting is better then). Afterwards, you'll still have some time to browse the shopping street (most shops close around 5:00 PM). There's a Chiikawa specialty store that stays open until 5:30 PM, offering local exclusive Chiikawa merchandise, so it's worth a visit. On the return trip to Osaka, if you sit on the right side of the bus by the window, you might even catch a glimpse of Osaka Castle lit up in the distance! While all these attractions are accessible by train, travelers moving from Kyoto to Osaka can take advantage of this guided tour to conveniently transfer their luggage directly on the bus.

We booked this 1 day tour last minute thru Klook and it was amazing! Our tour guide, Joy was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. It was also nice to relax on the bus after each stop.

Thanks Klook for this package that allowed us to be able to visit 3 attractions with no worries at all. An arrangement was made to fetch us from the hotel at Namba, 1 checked luggage allowed for each person and drop off at Kyoto station after the 1 day trip from Osaka-Nara-Uji-Fushimi Inari. Truly value for money and travel with ease of worries for the transfer between Osaka and Kyoto. Sufficient time are given for each visits. The young guide seemed inexperienced but he tried hard to provide some good advice and shared some links for food recommendation and spots. A fulfilling day!

Our tour guide, John, was incredibly professional, attentive to the group's needs, and provided very detailed explanations of all the attractions. He was also friendly and humorous. The tour itinerary offered great value for money, and I highly recommend it.

My brother and I had a lot of fun! Thank you Scarlett our amazing guide. She is very funny and very knowledgeable about the sites and the places we went. The bus was very comfortable and we napped every chance we got to have energy for each place we went too. Would definitely take this tour again.
