We had another excellent guide. She was super sweet and throughout the ride to Nara she talked about Kyoto and all the towns we were passing by. I thought it was cool that she didn't just leave the talking for when we actually got to each sites, she was really enthusiastic and passionate about what she told us. It was extremely cold that day and it snowed a little but she made sure to get us through all the spots and everything she talked about was really fascinating. She gave us time to play with the deer and she gave some recommendations on the bus ride back of places to eat and entertainment.

Excellent guide, she had much information, answered many questions and allowed you to also enjoy. She was quiet and strong and informative--did not talk to hear herself talk

The tours were excellent, my only criticism was that the link between them at the Kyoto handicraft centre was not well organised and we were given wrong information nearly resulting in our missing the afternoon bus

this was a perfect way to spend the afternoon--short but sweet. our guide was very well-informed, giving us enough information on the way to nara to keep us occupied, and then giving us a lot of very useful tips about where to spend the rest of our day in kyoto on the way back. all 3 stops wer4e well worth the visit. i wish we had had an opportunity to do some souvenir shopping in nara.

Trip was very good, but I would prefer to spend more time in Kasuga Shrine.

It was summer 40 degrees and the bus air con wasn't working! There were about 40 ppl in this tour and the Operator should have limited the number of people in one tour. With so many people, we couldn't hear what the tour guide said clearly... Anyway, Todaiji temple in Nara was huge and amazing, the deer was adorable. Would recommend the tour if the air con is fixed and number of ppl is limited

This tour is worth every penny. Todaiji temple, deer park and the Shrine were simly amazing. The statue of Buddha was empowering. The deers were cute. We absolutely enjoyed the tour inspite of the heat.

The tour was very well planned, comprehensive and with very good guides. It is a great way to start the visit to Kyoto and get more familiarized with the city, its history and surroundings.
