Nara Sake Tour - I took part in a sake tour of Nara.The first place we visited was a standing bar where we were able to try some popular local sake. The atmosphere in the store was very nice and the staff were very friendly. At Harushika Brewery,I compared the taste of five different types of sake.It was a very delicious sake with depth of flavor. I was able to learn about the history of sake and breweries, and gain a deeper understanding of the appeal of sake.The smoked Narazuke snack was also very delicious.Here you can buy sake and souvenirs. The tour guide gave us a detailed explanation of Nara's history and sake.I had a friendly chat with the guide.The streets of Nara had a historic feel to them. I also had the chance to stop by many different stores and enjoy eating and shopping around the streets of Nara. Thank you for a very enjoyable tour!

A great tour intro into NARA and Sake! - I really enjoyed this tour! Our tour guide provided a lot of great information in Nara and took me to the brewery and local bar that would have been hard to find otherwise. All the sake I drank was really good!

Amazing experience in Nara - We had an amazing experience on the sake tasting tour in Nara with the lovely Tam-san. She was the very kind, knowledgeable, and friendly guide. She took us very local places with plenty of sake and snacks at each one. We enjoyed very much drinking many kinds of sake, and also talking with local people. She also showed us a few sights in-between stops and shared historical stories about each of them. What a fantastic day and I will never forget. I highly recommend this tour.

Great sake tour, excellent afternoon activity - This is a fantastic experience for me. I have learned a lot from TAM, and become more interested in Sake. What was especially wonderful was that our guide had a friendly relationship with the people at the bars and breweries we visited, and they welcomed us warml. And the local food was delicious!
