Enjoy Nara easily by using a sightseeing bus!
This is a sightseeing bus tour departing from Nara. There are many tourist attractions relatively close to the station, but if you walk there, it will be a long distance. The sightseeing bus tour is recommended because there are parking lots in convenient locations for sightseeing and the walking distances are short. Whether you are visiting Nara for the first time or have been there many times, you will enjoy the tour more than usual with an English guide.
