    Great private tour of Nara

    Paul_M, Mar 2026
    We did a half day private tour of Nara with our guide, Teppei. The tour was very interesting hitting all of the high points and did not feel rushed at all. Teppei was amazing. He was an excellent communicator before during and after the tour. He was very knowledgeable about the subject matter. Above all he was very caring and conscientious in his approach, going out of the way to do little things that are very important – like sharing His cough lollies with my wife who had a cough – above and beyond! Thanks, Teppei for a great tour

    Nara has many beautiful sites. Be aware that the deer are not confined, and they are very charming but can be aggressive.
