Fun and walking filled day - This was a fun tour that I took with my daughter, from Osaka we met our bus guide at 8:30 in the morning and then we drove to the first sight in Kyoto and were there for 2 1/2 hours then we went to our next location and were there for an hour and a half and then we finished off our tour at the amazing Deer filled Park in the city of Nara . Everything was lots of fun, our tour guide was cheerful and explained a lot of things to us and gave us very clear directions.

She gave us a lot of information on the history of each location while we were on the bus - a lot of entertaining anecdotes as well, and always willing to answer any questions! The tour covered many interesting sights and we liked having our own time to walk around, shop, and eat. The temples were beautiful and the deer at Nara were so cute!

The itinerary was well-planned, making it easy to avoid the hassle of navigating the subway; we could simply relax, enjoy the beautiful scenery, and take photos. The highlight was definitely feeding the deer in Nara Park. Five stars—highly recommend GOGODAY’s day tours!
