Great tour with great stops
The one day tour is a great way to see a lot in a short period of time. All 5 stops were spectacular and the guide (KC) did a fantastic job of explaining everything. Of course, at each site you could spend many hours, but this was a great way to see a lot and learn a lot in Kyoto and Nara.

Very enjoyable
KC was hands down the best tour guide we had during our two-week stay in Japan—and that's saying a lot because we had several excellent guides. He was incredibly knowledgeable and informative, sharing insights with the perfect balance of politeness and humor. We were laughing all day long while learning so much. KC's genuine personality and warmth made the experience unforgettable. We absolutely loved him and can’t recommend him highly enough!

Kyoto and Nara Park Tour
We had a great tour with KC. He was friendly, funny and had a wealth of knowledge regarding the several temples and Shrines and historical information.
Thank you to the lady who brought us back to Osaka and helped us navigate our way back to our Hotel. Im sorry we didn't know your name.

More free time at Nara...
More free time at Nara would have been good. Long walk at the end of the day from and to the bus station

Nara
Our tour of Nara was as promised. Relaxing pace with beautiful sights to see. Our guide was great. She was very engaging and provided a lot of information at each location. Of course, feeding the deer was fun.

Best of Kyoto!
This is a wonderful tour, we got to see so many great parts of Kyoto and Nara. Our tour guide Casey was hilarious and informative, we learned so much and he had us laughing the entire trip. Traveling from place to place on your own can be quite expensive and exhausting, especially in Kyoto where many of the points of interest are spread-out. Booking this tour was very simple and convenient, and our tour guide Casey make the trip fabulous
Thanks Casey!
