Highlights

This is a limited-time spring day tour starting from Osaka that conquers the key cherry blossom spots of Southern Nara in a single day. Travel comfortably by private vehicle to hidden gems that are difficult to reach by public transport! You will be able to experience the authentic Japanese spring deeply, going beyond the typical cherry blossom viewing.

Our journey begins at the symbol of Nara tourism, Nara Park. It is famous for the unique scenery of "deer and cherry blossoms in harmony," a sight found only in Nara. It is an essential stop for any trip to this region. Soak in the spring vibes of Japan while watching deer roam peacefully amidst the serene atmosphere of Kasuga Taisha and Todai-ji Temple, located right next to the park.

Next, we visit Matabee Sakura (Hongo no Takizakura), a premier photography spot beloved by countless photographers. The overwhelming sight of this 300-year-old giant weeping cherry tree cascading over a stone wall like a waterfall offers a majestic emotion that cannot be felt in ordinary cherry blossom streets.

The next stop, Tsubosaka-dera, has recently emerged as one of the hottest spots on social media. The unique scenery of the giant Buddha rising above clouds of cherry blossoms filling the temple grounds is a must-see highlight exclusive to this tour. Beyond the Great Buddha, there are plenty of other sights to see and numerous photo spots to capture.

The finale of our journey is decorated by Takada Senbonzakura. We visit here last because of the sheer scale of the 1,000-tree cherry blossom tunnel stretching endlessly along the riverside. Walking along the path under a shower of falling cherry blossom petals will create the most romantic moment of your day.

From historical sites to breathtaking natural landscapes, join this tour to enjoy everything from Nara's charming highlights to its stunning cherry blossoms all at once!
