It is our first time going Nara and we decided to book a half day trip with a guide. We were glad to be assigned to Masako as our English guide. We learnt more than just reading signs and our session was interactive and informative. For our deer feeding experience, she was also considerate to give us the deer crackers at the base of Mt Wakakusa so that we are not against too many hungry deers 😂. We will definitely consider other tours when we are visiting Japan again.
