Reviews
Wonderful tour. Our guide had a great sense of humor and gave us tons of insight into Nara's history. Feeding the deer, Todai-ji, lunch spot, all perfect. We would book again in a heartbeat.
Loved this tour! Feeding the little deer at Nara Park was so therapeutic, and the tour guide even took lots of pictures for us. The pace of the itinerary was just right, and for lunch, they recommended a popular local restaurant. I was completely satisfied the whole day.
Kasuga Shrine was my favorite stop. All those stone and bronze lanterns along the forested path felt magical, and our guide explained the traditions beautifully. Totally worth the day trip from Osaka.
Very good private tour. Nara Park is beautiful and the guide shared lots of history. Timing was just nice for 8 hours, and the deer were so cute. Good value.
The hike up Mount Wakakusa was a wonderful surprise: a view over the entirety of Nara and so much peace and quiet. The guide, extremely kind and knowledgeable, shared many interesting trivia with us. Highly recommended!
Climbing Mount Wakakusa was the highlight of the day, offering gorgeous views of Nara and very few crowds. The guide was extremely kind and knew every nook and cranny. Highly recommended.
The deer at Nara Park bowed to us for crackers and my kids loved it. Our licensed guide was fantastic, picked us up in Osaka and kept everything running smoothly. Highly recommend for families.
Great day out from Osaka. The licensed guide was very knowledgeable and we did not need to rush at Nara Park. The deer were so cute and the weather was nice. Highly recommend.
The Great Buddha Hall at Todai-ji Temple is truly breathtaking. The licensed tour guide explained the historical background very clearly and even showed us how to crawl through the hole in the pillar, which was a lot of fun. Departing from Osaka is very convenient, eight hours is just right, and it offers great value for the money!
The Great Buddha at Todai-ji Temple is truly magnificent! Our tour guide explained the history of its construction before taking us inside, which made the experience completely different. A private tour allows you to decide your own stay duration, making it super flexible and totally worth it!
