A very easy trip where we got to see a lot of Nara, and got a lot of history by the guide.
We were lucky and were the only ones on the trip that day, so we felt extra well taken care of.
There was a little cycling, so the trip is recommended to those who have some experience with cycling from before.

Not to be missed.
Matheus was an excellent guide. Bikes were ready for us. In good condition. The route was well thought out and very manageable (we are in our 70's). Our guide supplied rice crackers to feed the lovely deer. Communication before meeting was excellent & helpful thank you.
