VELTRA tours & activities, fun things to do

Hard to find meeting place

Tour is great but getting to meeting place requires 1hr ...if you miss it, good luck. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and fun. Overnight, it was great experience.

Wonderful experience !

It was really outstanding to go and see the temple with the giant Buddha. It is really impressive and the explanation the guide made of the casting processs and to see the deers it was really fun!

Very good tour, good amount of time in each place. Decent lunch and great guide.

A very well organised tour, covering a few of the most important places to see in both Kyoto and Nara. In the end, it is only so much that you can fit in one day...

Great Tour for the time concious traveller, only had 1 day to spend in Kyoto, and was able to visit all the sites we wanted to see!

Morning tour guide was a bit soft spoken/hard to hear unless you stood very near.Gold Palace was WAY TOO RUSHED!! Maybe a change of order would be better. Afternoon guide was AMAZING!! He was so INFORMATIVE and funny!! Overall we would highly recommend this tour. The only way to see and learn about the top spots in such an efficient way.

The one-day trip to Kyoto & Nara was definitely worth it. The highlights in Kyoto gave a first idea of the city, which was interesting, and lunch in the handycraft center was actually better than I had expected for a tourist group treat. But I particularly liked the afternoon in Nara - the space and green surroundings of the sights are perfectly relaxing and you really get into holiday mood while visiting magnificent historical places.
While I preferred the afternoon on the programme side, it was the opposite for our guides: the morning guide was great (perfect English & a very good mix of historical and country information), the guide in the afternoon was less helpful (not so good English, less information...)
Overall, definitely a good tour.
