On this day trip, you'll join a knowledgeable driver-guide to explore various attractions between Nara and Kyoto. You'll set out from Osaka for Nara, where your first stop will be Nara Park. Here, you can go for a stroll, feed crackers to the free-roaming deer or visit one of the many tea houses.
Your next stop will be the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Todaiji Temple, a Buddhist complex where you'll find a treasure trove of history and culture and a 49-ft bronze Buddha. You'll also visit Kasuga Taisha, an ancient Shinto shrine. In the small city of Uji, just south of Kyoto, you'll visit the 'Matcha Street', a popular location that spotlights the powdered green tea, from ice cream and cakes to noodles. Your trip will end with a relaxing soak at Uji's traditional hot springs.
