Overview

Ideal for first-time visitors to Nara, this 3-hour fully private walking tour introduces you to both must-see landmarks and hidden gems with a local guide.

5.00We booked a private tour and this was one of the best tours ever. Our local Japanese guide was gracious and super polite and had planned our itinerary so efficiently that we didn’t feel burnt out despite all the walking and the crowds. For first-timers that might feel a bit overwhelmed or confused about seeing the area or if you’re suffering from analysis paralysis about choosing the “perfect” Nara tour, this is absolutely the one.
