Reviews: [Cherry Blossom Season] One-Day Tour of Ancient Temples in Kyoto, Japan + Nara Park with Adorable Deer + Fushimi Inari Shrine
Guest User2026-04-22
Since we were traveling with a large family, we wanted to visit both Kyoto and Nara, so after some deliberation, we chose a one-day tour. The itinerary allowed us to efficiently tour Kiyomizu-dera (Sannenzaka, Ninenzaka), Fushimi Inari Shrine, and Nara Park all in one day, which was great for saving time. I think this course is excellent for first-time visitors or families because it allows you to comfortably look around just by taking the bus! The guide is fluent in three languages ​​(Japanese, Chinese, and Korean), so there was absolutely no difficulty communicating in Korean, and they were so kind that it left a lasting impression. During transits and at each tourist spot, they meticulously explained the history of each location, recommended restaurants, things to do, and precautions, making it a trip where we understood and enjoyed the experience rather than just looking around. On the morning of the tour, I recommend arriving on time as instructed by the guide rather than going too early. The bus arrives around that time as well, so there is no need to arrive too early just in case. Although our group was large as my grandmother and young nieces and nephews were with us, everyone was satisfied because the transportation was convenient and the itinerary was well-planned. Since Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka in Kyoto were crowded, we ate snacks at restaurants instead of having a meal and enjoyed sightseeing a bit more, which allowed us to enjoy Kyoto without feeling rushed! The most memorable part of the course was the time we spent interacting with the deer at Nara Park. I was worried that we might not be able to do the feeding experience since we went in the afternoon, but luckily, there was someone selling food at just the right time, so we were able to feed the deer even though we arrived in the afternoon. Feeding the deer roaming freely was a special memory for both the children and the adults~ The photos turned out especially well near the lake! Overall, this tour was well-balanced in terms of transportation, explanations, and itinerary, so I recommend it to families or those visiting Kyoto/Nara for the first time 👍

A big thumbs up to Uncle Big Head on WeChat on February 24th! He provided clear information, location, and photos in advance, and was very enthusiastic and meticulous in replying to questions and offering helpful reminders. His driving was very smooth and safe, and the itinerary and arrangement of the three attractions were well-planned. His descriptions of the attractions and restaurants were concise. All three attractions are traditional and representative, rich in local culture and history. Uncle Big Head deserves high praise for his itinerary planning.
Reviews: 1-day tour to Nara Park + Kyoto ancient temples + Fushimi Inari Taisha in Japan, feeding adorable deer and visiting historic temples

First of all, our top priority was having Kiyomizu Temple as the first stop. Since it was also affordable, we booked this tour. Our guide was Mr. Seo Geum-bong, who was kind and explained the course very well, which was great. There weren't too many people at Kiyomizu Temple when we went, so we were able to enjoy our visit. Since this tour takes you to Nara late in the season, there might not be any senbei available, and we couldn't find any. However, there was an elderly man near the parking lot handing out acorns, so we were able to do the feeding experience. If you don't find any senbei, try looking for that old man.

I felt this was a truly heartwarming trip to Kyoto! From the magnificent golden splendor of Kinkaku-ji to the thousand torii gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine, every stop was breathtaking and thought-provoking. The tour guide was knowledgeable, articulate, and incredibly attentive, patiently answering all our questions.

What a wonderful day! The tour guide was enthusiastic and professional, providing detailed explanations and leading us to experience Kyoto, Nara, and Uji in depth. The itinerary was well-planned; we fed the deer in Nara and enjoyed authentic matcha sweets. The whole trip was stress-free. The tour guide service was excellent, and I would definitely choose them again next time!
