Excellent day in Nara with Mika - Mika was excellent! I would have been lost in Nara without her. She did a great job explaining all the highlights and history. I was the only one that showed up due to weather but she still provided the full tour!

Excellent tour! - Excellent tour! I felt that I was able to see all the must-see spots in Nara in one day, without feeling rushed. Our guide, Mikki, was extremely knowledgeable, and her insights added real depth to the experience of visiting the historical sites. We also had the chance to enjoy a traditional meal and learn furoshiki, which made the day even more special. I would definitely recommend this tour!

An insight discovery on Ancient Nara Historical Path ! - An interesting discovery walking tour, Hiroki San, my guide was friendly and knowledgeable on the history of ancient Nara shrines/temples where past connected to present times. Not forgetting those adorable deers roaming wild coexisting with people. Simple yet delicious Tendon lunch within a relaxing atmosphere and a hand on the multipurpose Furoshiki such as gift wrapping, carry bag and water bottle holder was amazing. We ended our tour strolling along the Naramachi thru’ souvenir shops, traditional houses and shrines. Overall it was a great day talking n listening. I highly recommend to give this 6hrs tour a go ! Thank you Hiroki San, the Furoshiki experience & delicious lunch !!
