A 2-hour guided bike tour through Nara’s Heijyo Palace UNESCO grounds, with photo stops, museums, and Tenpyo costume photos.

“This tour with Kay was excellent. It was the perfect length of time for us and our 6 year old. He enjoyed collecting stamps and seeing the local sites. We have visited Nara before and enjoyed this tour as a great way to spend time away from the more touristy area. Afterwards Kay very kindly called us a taxi so we could head towards the town for lunch. We highly recommend this tour to all families and cannot rate Kay highly enough. Amazing value for money!”
