Overview

Step back in time with a journey to Nara, Japan’s first permanent capital and a city rich in history, nature, and spirituality. This tour takes you to the heart of ancient Japan, where you’ll visit Todai-ji Temple, home to the Great Buddha (Daibutsu), one of the largest bronze statues in the world. Stroll through Nara Park, where over a thousand friendly, free-roaming deer await to greet you, considered messengers of the gods in Shinto tradition. Enjoy the peaceful beauty of Kasuga Taisha Shrine, known for its hundreds of bronze and stone lanterns, and immerse yourself in the tranquil atmosphere of traditional gardens and old streets.

Along the way, your guide will share fascinating insights into Japan’s rich religious heritage, its imperial history, and local customs. There will be time for local snacks, photo opportunities, and souvenir shopping. This tour is ideal for history enthusiasts, nature lovers, and families alike.

Whether it’s your first time in Japan or you're a repeat traveler, Nara offers a unique blend of sacred heritage and natural wonder, all in a peaceful setting just a short ride from Kyoto or Osaka.
