Depart from Osaka to uncover the wonders of Kyoto and Nara on our cultural day tour. Begin in Kyoto at the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, where towering stalks will make for the perfect photos. Continue to Kinkaku-ji Temple, where the Golden Pavilion reflects across the surrounding pond. At the Fushimi Inari Shrine, walk through iconic red torii gates before traveling onward to Nara to visit Todai-ji Temple, home to the Great Buddha, and walk through Nara Park, where freely roaming deer can be seen throughout the grounds, before heading back to Osaka via train.
