5.00We had a lovely tour with George. We learned a great deal about Nara and saw a lot in a short time period. We would not have had as good experience if we had visited Nara Park on our own and Il am very glad we booked this private tour to take us to all the top spots in Nara Park.
Kimu is a good guide

4.00Go early to avoid the crowd and use a personal guide that can guide you through the park and let history speaks for itself.

4.00Thoughtful insights into the history of the park and temples from a Nara native. And 3 hours is about the right amount of time for a tour of this area - once it gives you the lay of the land, you can easily find anything else that interests you on your own.
