Asuka was the ancient political center of Japan about 1400 years ago. Unlike other parts of Japan, there are neither high-rise buildings nor large commercial complex. Instead, historical remains, rice paddy field, traditional village houses, mountains and streams welcome us as they used to be. You will visit an organic farm and enjoy seasonal activities. This will be happy experience not only for adults but also kids.

Reviews

Asuka Tour - Nara Prefecture

Michiko was an outstanding guide from the get go. Her communication was warm and professional. She shared much of her local knowledge and took us to many interesting places in Asuka. We had a fun, relaxed time with her and would give her service more than five stars if we could. We would definitely engage her as a guide again, and will be recommending her in the future.

Thanks to your wonderful review! It was my great pleasure to introduce my favorite places and people in Asuka. You and Oliver have such relaxing and generous personalities, so I felt as if I hang around with my old friends. Thanks again for choosing Japan for your honeymoon destination, and I hope you will come back sometime in the future. I wish you all the best!

Nara Para & Wazuka

We had a very memorable day with Michiko yesterday that included Nara and visiting the green tea region. Prior to the visit Michiko was timely with information and planning for the day. On the day Michiko was very adaptable changing the itinerary due to weather conditions and also including sake tasting remembering we were interested in this option from our initial booking. It was a pleasure to spend time together and the day will be a major highlight in our Japan itinerary.

Thank you for your wonderful review and I am delighted to have been able to show you around Wazuka Village, where the highest quality green tea has been produced for over 800 years. We were lucky to escape the temporary rain, enjoy e-bikes, and discover the idyllic scenery. It was also interesting to hear your and Michael's insights about Japan, and the stories you shared about your life and your country were fascinating! On the way home, I kept listening to the Oasis songs, which Michael was talking about. I hope this day trip left a deep impression on you and that you will enjoy green tea and sake at home.

Thanks for your wonderful review. I also had a pleasant time visiting the highlights of Nara with such a sweet couple like you. I was impressed that you enjoyed yourself experiencing different places and cultures, and that both of you walked hand in hand, supporting each other throughout the tour. I hope you'll take care of yourself and have wonderful travels from now on, too!
