Great walking tour of Nara - This walking tour is definitely worth it. Nara is huge and to have a guide was really helpful. It also included entrance to the Great Temple which was one of the most impressive things I’ve seen. Seiko our guide was so helpful, knowledgeable and curious, funny too! Couldn’t recommend this tour and Seiko more!

Nara park feedback - This was a wonderful experience! Kazu was fantastic at explaining the history and did so very professionally! You can choose to do this on your own, I think it’s nice to do a guided tour to learn more of the culture/ religion. I have already thanked Kazu, our guide personally, she was truly the best!!! The park in general was amazing!!! This is an absolute must when visiting Japan!!

Narvana - We had a great day visiting Nara , the guide and her assistant were very informative and friendly and did a fabulous job . The deer are everywhere, they even go in the shops but be careful as the males can get a bit frisky

A compact but perfectly paced tour of Nara park with a very knowledgeable guide. - Our tour of Nara was fabulous and our guide was very knowledgeable. He took the time to explain things to us and take us to parts of the park that were less busy but equally wonderful. The tour was at a great pace with plenty of time to take everything in.

Nara Walking Tour (Highly Recommended) - Love this tour! The walk includes a bus ride to Nara Park and visits to the temple. You get to see many deers throughout the entire park which is the most attractive activity for many tourists! Go feed the deers but be watchful of the male ones with the antler as they can attack if felt threaten although they look demure. The tour also includes a visit to the Great Buddha Hall! A must visit attraction! Make an attempt to squeeze through the pillar’s hole of 37cm X 30cm X 110cm for good health and for protection against bad luck!
