This tour is conducted by an English-speaking guide only. Let's explore the traditional areas of Nara, which include Todaiji Temple, Nara Park, and Kasuga Taisha Shrine. The Great Buddha at Todaiji Temple is one of the most famous and historically significant landmarks in Nara. It stands at a height of around 15 meters. Todaiji Temple boasts the title of having the largest wooden structure in the world. In Nara Park, you can enjoy the sight of friendly and charming deer. Kasuga Taisha Shrine is an important historical site in ancient Nara. We can visit the main sanctuary for general worship. (Please note that the special worship of the main sanctuary, Kasugataisha Museum, and Botanical Garden are not included.) Let's have a delicious Japanese-style lunch. The restaurant also has a shop where you can buy local souvenirs. After lunch, you can do a little shopping to bring back some mementos or souvenirs to remember your visit!

(Ceci est une visite à pied) Idéalement conçu pour les voyageurs ayant un emploi du temps chargé et un temps limité à Kyoto. Nous vous proposons non seulement de découvrir les sites touristiques et l'histoire du lieu, mais aussi de mieux comprendre le Japon, les Japonais, leur culture, leur philosophie de vie et leur mentalité. Après la visite, vous comprendrez pourquoi il est si difficile de trouver des poubelles, pourquoi les routes japonaises sont si calmes et la philosophie qui les sous-tend. Même les plus petites choses peuvent devenir compréhensibles si vous nous rejoignez.
