Day 02: Osaka
The morning in Osaka begins with an exploration of the five-story Osaka Castle. Here, discover one of Japan's most well-known sites while admiring the beautiful and intricately designed architecture. Then, head on to the well-known Umeda Sky Building, from which you can get a panoramic bird's-eye perspective of the city. Then, continue on to the Kuromon Market to have a taste of the best and most authentic seafood and Japanese street food.
Then, experience the cruise of a lifetime as you board the Tombori River Cruise and see the lively atmosphere of the streets of Minami, including Shinsaibashi and Namba, from the boat. The rest of the day is free for you to enjoy shopping upon arrival in the Umeda district.
Day 03: Osaka – Kyoto – Nara – Osaka
The day begins as you travel to Todaiji Temple, the historical landmark of Nara that is home to one of the biggest bronze Buddha statues in Japan. Then, the journey continues to Nara Park, a 1,250-acre reserve that’s home to more than 1,000 free-roaming deer. In Japan, deer are considered messengers of the gods, so what could be more meaningful than seeing and feeding them in real life? We will not let you miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Then, after an interactive experience at the park, we will head to Kyoto to visit the Fushimi Inari Shrine, famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates. Then, continue to the 400-year-old UNESCO World Heritage Site of Nijo Castle, the Kyoto residence of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the Edo Period. If time permits, you may proceed to the Geisha district of Gion before heading back to the hotel in Osaka.
