Nara Walking Tour

We'll meet at the Gyoki Bosatsu Statue to set off on our guided tour of Nara.

On our tour, we'll explore Nara's historic centre and discover a Buddhist pyramid that has similarities to the Mayan temples. We will also visit the house of a local merchant for insights into Japanese culture.

We will enjoy panoramic views of the city from the viewpoints on its hills and visit Nara Park to meet its famous inhabitants: the deer, considered sacred divine messengers in Japan.

We will connect with the spiritual side of Japan at the Kasuga Taisha Shrine and the Todaiji Temple, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Lastly, we will have a traditional three-course Japanese meal and a drink.

Our guided tour will conclude back at the meeting point, approximately 5 hours after we begin.
