About Japan Kyoto Kiyomizu Temple Fushimi Inari Shrine Nara Park Todaiji Temple 13 people small group one-day tour Day Tours

Embark on a seamless small-group journey from Osaka to explore the iconic highlights of Kyoto and Nara in just one day. Wander through the mesmerizing torii gates of Fushimi Inari, marvel at the giant Buddha in Todaiji Temple, and interact with friendly deer in Nara Park, all while enjoying the comfort of a 13-person max group and round-trip transport.

Local Legends & Stories

Legend says that if you can successfully walk the 18 meters between the two love stones at Jishu Shrine near Kiyomizu Temple with your eyes closed, you will find true love. Meanwhile, the deer of Nara are considered sacred messengers of the Shinto gods, a status they have held since the founding of the Kasuga Grand Shrine over a thousand years ago.

Must Do Experiences

  • Stroll through the thousands of vibrant vermilion torii gates winding up the forested slopes of Fushimi Inari Shrine.

  • Interact with the famous bowing deer and feed them special deer crackers in the expansive grounds of Nara Park.

  • Stand on the wooden stage of Kiyomizu Temple for breathtaking panoramic views of Kyoto's cityscape and surrounding hills.

  • Gaze up at the awe-inspiring 15-meter-tall bronze Great Buddha statue housed within the massive wooden structure of Todaiji Temple.

Hidden Gems

  • Visit the Jishu Shrine located just behind Kiyomizu Temple's main hall, dedicated to the deity of love and matchmaking, where you can try walking between the love stones with your eyes closed.

  • Look out for the clever deer in Nara Park that have learned to bow politely when they spot tourists holding deer crackers, a unique behavior not seen in wild deer elsewhere.

  • Explore the quieter, moss-covered sub-temples and serene pathways tucked away just off the main bustling streets of the Higashiyama district near Kiyomizu.

What Makes it Special

  • Enjoy an intimate and personalized experience with a strict maximum of 13 travellers, avoiding the crowds of standard large coach tours.

  • Benefit from the ultimate convenience of hassle-free round-trip transportation and hotel pick-up and drop-off directly from Osaka.

  • Guaranteed daily departures even for solo travellers, making it incredibly easy to fit this comprehensive Kansai highlights tour into any itinerary.

Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

Early morning is the best time to explore Fushimi Inari to capture the torii gates without the heavy crowds, while late afternoon offers beautiful golden hour lighting at Kiyomizu Temple. Spring and autumn are the most spectacular and popular times to visit due to the cherry blossoms and fall foliage, though you should expect larger crowds and book well in advance.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

  • For the best photos at Fushimi Inari, hike about 15 to 20 minutes up the main path to escape the dense crowds and capture the winding gates in peaceful solitude.

  • Capture the iconic stage of Kiyomizu Temple from the viewing platforms across the ravine to get the entire wooden structure framed by seasonal foliage.

  • When photographing the deer in Nara Park, get down to their eye level and use a fast shutter speed to capture their playful movements and bowing antics.

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

When visiting Shinto shrines like Fushimi Inari and Buddhist temples like Todaiji, bow slightly before passing through the main gates and avoid walking directly in the center of the path, which is reserved for the deities. Remember to speak softly, refrain from eating while walking in sacred areas, and always ask for permission before taking close-up photographs of monks or locals.

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

  • Experience the magical Kiyomizu Temple Special Night Illumination during spring and autumn, where the temple and surrounding trees are beautifully lit up after dark.

  • Witness the spectacular Nara Tokae Lantern Festival in August, where thousands of candles light up the pathways of Nara Park and create a romantic, ethereal atmosphere.

  • Enjoy the vibrant autumn foliage season from mid-November to early December, which transforms the hillsides of Kyoto and Nara into a stunning canvas of red, orange, and gold.

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

  • Keep a safe distance from the deer in Nara Park and do not tease them with food, as they can become aggressive and nip if they feel provoked.

  • Watch your step on the uneven stone paths and steep staircases at Kiyomizu Temple and Fushimi Inari, especially during rainy weather when the surfaces can be slippery.

  • Stay hydrated and carry a small towel or cooling wipes during the hot and humid Japanese summer months to prevent heat exhaustion while walking outdoors.

Nara Park is located on the east side of Nara City, at the foot of Mount Kasuga. The park has beautiful and picturesque scenery all year round. Hundreds of wild sika deer live in the open meadows. Around the park are Todaiji Temple and Kasuga Taisha Shrine. Close to the lovely sika deer park, the scenery is pleasant, with twigs sprouting in spring, maple leaves in autumn, and it is also suitable for leisurely strolls in other seasons. It is easy to see deer in Nara, and Nara Park is a place where deer herds are more concentrated, so some people call it "Sika Deer Park". In the park, flocks of sika deer can be seen everywhere, and it is a great pleasure for tourists to come into close contact with them. The deer are either silently foraging on the grass, or play with each other, or come to you and bend their heads to rub against you, which is very lovable. There are quite a few stalls selling deer cakes here, you can buy some to feed the deer. The clever little deer will follow you as soon as it smells the deer cake in your hand. Visiting quaint temples and shrines In addition to the lovely herds of deer, the temples and shrines around the park are also attractive places for tourists. The babbling waters, ponds and creeks also add color to the park, and the large roofs and towers of the temple can be seen looming in the woods. To the north is Todaiji Temple. Its majestic Great Buddha Hall is the largest wooden ancient building in the world. In the hall, you can see a huge bronze Buddha statue. You can also overlook the scenery of Nara when you walk to Ergakudo. At the foot of Kasuga Mountain in the southeast, there is Kasuga Taisha Shrine, surrounded by lush and beautiful vegetation, which looks ancient and natural. Thousands of lanterns are lit on both sides of the stone road leading to the main hall during the Wan Lantern Festival in February and August every year, creating a wonderful sacred scene that is very unforgettable. In addition, attractions such as Nara National Museum, Yisui Garden, and Kofukuji Temple are also nearby.
