Very well organized trip We saw very impressive Buddha Temple and Shinto Shrine in Nara. We were fascinated with Bamboo forest. Guide was very attentive, took lots of pictures and even when we had extra time left took us to Kyoto to explore Nijo castle which was not on itinerary that we are very appreciative that otherwise we would not have a chance to see it. Guide also helped us to make dinner reservation for after the trip We were very happy how we spent our time

wow I have to say my family and I had an amazing time!!!!! this is my second time ever writing any kind of review. my first experience with viator was a miserable one. thanks to my stars I didn't cancel this tour based off of my first experience. this tour cost a bit but it was worth every penny. we got picked up at our hotel. greeted so nicely . doors opened for us, water was offered right away. our tour guide Mike was AMAZING!!! it's our first time in japan so we didn't know anything. mike was very polite, bubbly and funny. mike told us step by step where we were going and as we got to each location he explained about the history and little facts about that location. persons in our group had a bit of a ruff time with walking to quickly but Mike made sure he asked Frequently it we are ok and if we needed to rest for a min. Mike was the best!!! he was like our personal photographer lol . he took pictures in every little spot and at every angle lol that was so sweet of him to do. he also gave use a picture foulder of every place we visited. he also saved every entry ticket we got that day and gave them to us after every stop . he also sent all of the photos to me at the end of the tour . if anyone is looking for a GREAT tour guide ask for Mike on this tour . he seems to love his job so that made the tour more memorable for my family and I. this experience makes me want to come back to Japan to learn more . 100% satisfied
