Nara has a fair claim to being the birthplace of refined sake, with the monks of Shoryaku-ji credited with early brewing methods, and it’s well under an hour from Kyoto by train. These tours pair its old brewers with Nara’s newer craft beer bars.
Discover Nara's highlights on a private guided tour from Kyoto or Nara, including temples, deer, and sake tasting, with expert insights and flexible timing.
