FAQ
We meet near Kyoto Station. The tour ends in Nara. You can return to Kyoto after the tour (the guide usually returns after the tour) or stay and get lunch and explore Nara on your own.
I have a JR Pass, can I use it instead of the Kintentsu train ticket that the guide will buy for me?
No, the JR Pass trains will take you to a further (and different) station, extending unnecessarily the tour duration and disrupting the tight schedule. The Kintetsu train instead is a lot more convenient for reaching the places that you visit on the tour. By booking our walks all clients must adhere to our procedures to ensure the success of the tour. As this is a walking-intensive tour, using the Kintetsu train line is the best solution.
What train ticket is included in the price of the tour?
A one-way train ticket from Kyoto and Nara is included in the price of the tour, which will be bought for you by your guide on-site. Our intention is to allow you to have the opportunity to stay and explore Nara on your own after the tour ends.
Is it okay to tip my guide in Japan?
