Nara Prefecture Day trips

The tour was well-organized and enjoyable from start to finish. The itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to experience the highlights without feeling rushed. Our guide was knowledgeable, approachable, and always willing to assist, which made the experience even more meaningful. Transportation was comfortable and punctual, and the accommodations and stops were thoughtfully selected. Overall, it was a memorable and worthwhile experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable tour.

This tour efficiently allowed me to experience Japan's most representative attractions in one day, with an itinerary that included Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Fushimi Inari Shrine, Nara Park, and Todai-ji Temple. At Kiyomizu-dera Temple, the view overlooking Kyoto and the magnificence of the wooden architecture were impressive. At Fushimi Inari Shrine, walking along the endless path of torii gates allowed me to feel Japan's unique and mystical atmosphere. In Nara Park, the scenery of naturally blending with the deer was memorable, and the Great Buddha of Todai-ji Temple was overwhelming in scale and presence when I actually saw it. The tour guide, Songran Lee, provided very natural Korean explanations that were easy to understand, and she highlighted the key points of each location, allowing me to learn a lot in a short amount of time. In particular, the restaurant information she recommended during transit was practical and detailed, which was a great help during the trip. Overall schedule management, guidance, customer service, and other basic qualities as a guide were well-equipped, allowing me to enjoy the tour comfortably and with confidence! Overall, it was a stable and satisfactory tour, and I would especially recommend it to those visiting Kyoto and Nara for the first time!

I recommend this trip for those with limited time during their Osaka visit. It’s a wonderful way to see three popular tourist spots in just one day. We started from Dotonburi at 8am and returned around 6:30pm. You’ll get about 2 hours to explore the Arashiyama area, 1 hour in Nara, and over an hour at Fushimi Inari Shrine. Just a heads-up: be punctual so you don’t miss the tour, which leaves without you if you're late. Be sure to plan your day wisely. We managed to squeeze in a quick lunch in Arashiyama since there wouldn’t be time to eat at the other spots.

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.

I really enjoyed this day tour. It’s such a stress free activity since you have a guide who will bring you to beautiful places and sceneries. Our guide was Harry and he did an awesome job. We got to see so many places that me and my family ould not have gone too. ai would recommend doing this tour and requesting Harry as your guide.

Very happy! There weren't many people at Rokko Snow Park that day. I wish we had more time. We played for a full four hours and skipped lunch to play some more. The deer in Nara are a bit mean; they bit our jackets as we walked by.

This trip was amazing. Fionna, our guide for this trip, was a phenomenol guide to the expedition. She is expressive with her words, face, and arms; moreover, she gets along with the vibes of the group. She is informative as she gives the background and history of each important landmark in our trip, laid out some important rules and precaution on what to do and not to do during the trip for each important milestone we reached on a trip, and looks out for the wellbeing of us tourist. Additionally, she gives quizzes after the trip which really makes us appreciate the insights we gained from the trip more - she even gave us chocolate candies for answering it correctly! Overall, I say the value was worth it as it as my family of five really had a positive experience of her.

Absolutely loved our Day 3 tour from Osaka to Nara & Uji! 🦌✨ Visiting Nara Park, Tōdaiji Temple, and Byōdōin Temple was breathtaking — the temples are stunning, and the deer in Nara Park are so adorable and friendly. 🏯💛 The Uji matcha food tour was a highlight — every treat was delicious, and the matcha desserts were unforgettable! 🍵💚 The day was perfectly balanced with sightseeing, culture, and foodie adventures. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a mix of history, nature, and yummy Japanese treats — we had so much fun and made memories to last a lifetime! 🌟

We took a day trip to Arashiyama, Nara Park, and a shrine, with Eric as our guide, and it was an unforgettable experience! Eric is knowledgeable and shared the history and culture of each place in a very interesting and engaging way. He led us smoothly through the day, making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the trip. His recommendations for photo spots and local insights made the trip even more special. Thanks to Eric, we experienced the beauty of Arashiyama, the charm of Kyoto, and the adorable deer in Nara Park in the best possible way. He also gave us deer crackers to feed the deer. Thanks, KLOOK.
