What you can expect

  • Start your day with a 6:30 or 7:00am pickup from your hotel in Kyoto City by private car. Travel comfortably to Nara and enjoy a relaxed, crowd-free morning at Nara’s most famous landmarks in the peaceful morning light.

    Begin at Todai-ji Temple, founded over 1,300 years ago, and see the Great Buddha inside the world’s largest existing wooden building. Continue to Nara Park, home to over 1,000 sacred deer believed to be messengers of the gods, and enjoy the special experience of feeding them deer crackers. Visit the atmospheric Kasuga Taisha Shrine, famous for its 3,000 lanterns and deep ties to aristocracy and the imperial family. Finish at Mount Wakakusa, where you can enjoy sweeping views over Nara City and capture stunning photos of deer against the cityscape before returning comfortably to your hotel in Kyoto.
