All Nara Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 2

My husband and I did the full day tour with Den and loved seeing all the sites in Nara Park and Uji. Den was lovely, kind and knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and was very patient with us. The temples, the shrine, feeding the deer, the delicious traditional Japanese lunch and the matcha tea ceremony were highlights of our time in Japan. I do have some recommendations to make the tour smoother: the coordinates on the app lead us to the back of the building. Just Google the Tully coffee house location for a less confusing map. Den was very good about giving an overview of our day, however, the map she used was not to scale and Nara Park is quite large and the crowds made it hard to navigate at times. We missed our meeting point and were lost for about an hour. The phone number provided for support did not work, but we were able to quickly communicate with the company via text messages on the app. It would have helped if we had specific pre-arranged ranged meeting times and locations so when we did get separated, we knew where next to be. Also, when we were walking next to Den, we got great information, but it was otherwise hard to hear her in the crowded streets. On the bus, she gave great explanations. Overall, we would recommend this full day tour!
