I used this service with a friend. In the morning, they came to pick us up near the hotel. At the tourist spots, they were able to park in taxi-only parking areas, which made it close to our destinations, and it was fun with the driver's guidance. While it's enjoyable to go sightseeing on our own, having someone explain the history and geography deepened our understanding. It had been since my school trip as a child that I visited Nara, so I really enjoyed this adult version of a school trip. Ad… I used this service with a friend.

Additionally, they responded to our sudden requests and kept us entertained until the last minute, creating great memories. At first, I thought, "Isn't this a bit expensive?" but it was worth every penny! Thank you very much. 友人と2人で利用しました。
朝、ホテル近くまで迎えに来ていただきました。
観光地ではタクシー専用の駐車場に停めていただけるので、目的地まで近く、運転手さんのガイド付きで楽しかったです。
自分たちで観光地へ行くのも楽しいですが、歴史や地理を説明してもらうことで理解が深まりました。
子供の頃修学旅行で奈良に行った以来の訪問でしたので、大人の修学旅行を満喫しました。

I apologize for the inconvenience caused at the pickup location, but the person on the phone was very flexible and helpful. Additionally, the driver was aware of the heavy traffic and the difficulty of covering all the places, so they listened to my desired destinations and took me around. Since they explained the history and highlights along the way, I was able to enjoy the sightseeing experience. Thank you very much.ピックアップの場所からご迷惑をかけてしまいましたが、電話対応の方には臨機応変に対応して下さり、助かりました。また、ドライバーの方も、とても混雑しており、全てを回るのは難しいこと、私の行きたい場所をヒアリングして下さり、回っていただきました。歴史や見どころなどを説明してもらいながらだったので、楽しく観光が出来ました。ありがとうございました。

I used it on September 7. It was still hot, and I think walking would have been tough. The taxi tour was great because we could go directly to the places we wanted to visit! The driver was also very kind.9月7日に利用しました。まだ暑くて歩いたら大変だったと思います。

It was my first time visiting Nara, so I used a sightseeing taxi. The driver was kind, lending me an umbrella and providing salt tablets, and he kept the car engine running during the tour, which was very considerate. The explanations at the sightseeing spots were thorough, and I learned a lot! I had an experience that I wouldn't have been able to have on my own. I really appreciated how he took care of my child; I’m so glad I used this service! Thank you very much!初めての奈良観光でしたので、観光タクシーを利用させて頂きました。運転手さんは親切で日傘を貸してくれたり、塩分タブレットを用意してくれたり、観光中も車のエンジンをかけっぱなしにしてくれて、至れり尽くせりでした。観光地での説明も丁寧で、とても勉強になりました!個人では中々出来ない体験をさせて頂きました。子供にを気を使ってもらい本当に利用して良かったです!ありがとうございました!

It was a bit early for the autumn leaves, but it was great to be able to sightsee without walking too much by taking a taxi. The Jōruri-ji Temple, which we visited on short notice, was quiet and a very nice place. I would like to request the same driver next time.紅葉には 少し早かったけれど、タクシーで あまり歩かないで 観光できて良かったです。

We went on a 2-night, 3-day trip to Nara from Ibaraki Prefecture. We are a couple approaching late senior age. The main attraction was the cherry blossoms at Yoshinoyama. We had planned this trip in 2019, but it was canceled due to COVID-19. We really wanted to go, but after five years, we had lost confidence in our ability to walk, and we were about to give up when we discovered the taxi tour advertisement from Veltra and quickly made a reservation.

We went on a 2-night, 3-day trip to Nara from Ibaraki Prefecture. We are a couple approaching late senior age. The main attraction was the cherry blossoms at Yoshinoyama. We had planned this trip in 2019, but it was canceled due to COVID-19. We really wanted to go, but after five years, we had lost confidence in our ability to walk, and we were about to give up when we discovered the taxi tour advertisement from Veltra and quickly made a reservation.

On the first day, we were guided to Todai-ji and Kasuga-taisha. There are roads where only taxis and commercial vehicles are allowed, and regular cars cannot enter. We smoothly ascended steep slopes and were able to visit Nigatsu-do, which we thought might be impossible. Our driver provided excellent guidance, sharing rich knowledge and interesting stories that you wouldn't find in online resources or guidebooks, which was very educational. They were also great at entertaining us as a couple, and we were able to enjoy a fun tour of most of the vast Todai-ji and Kasuga-taisha in just three hours.

On the second day, we toured Yoshinoyama, and the support was meticulous, allowing us to walk very little, making it accessible even for seniors. A somewhat miraculous event occurred at Kinpusen-ji, which was moving. Perhaps it was due to our driver's efforts. This is what they mean by "going above and beyond." If there was a little extra time, they would take us anywhere based on our requests and also recommend temples and shrines. They made excellent use of our time, with no waste. They also considered parking fees, ensuring we incurred almost none.

On the third day, they adjusted the schedule to fit our return time and took us to a wonderful temple that is hard to reach by train or bus but still worth visiting. The explanations were exquisite, and I found myself wanting to visit all the temples and shrines in Nara. I absolutely want to go again while I'm still alive. My impression of Nara has changed. Driver M from Hattori Taxi, I look forward to your assistance next time.
