Ranked by number of reviews on Viator as of 28 Oct 2026
Viator files products under cities as well as prefectures, so this site fetched the first 50 products in Viator's default order for “Nara Prefecture” and for each Viator destination in it (Nara) (for Nara, all the products fetched for this site's city ranking instead): 131 distinct products, ranked by review count. Some products start in the prefecture and travel elsewhere (or the other way round); the product page on Viator gives the meeting point.
“Popular” on this page means the number of reviews Viator shows for the product (Viator's combined count of reviews left on Viator and Tripadvisor); when two products have the same count, the higher rating comes first. It is not a recommendation by Japan Trip Math. Prices are Viator's lowest “from” price in US dollars on the fetch date; the price for your date, group size and option can be higher. Check the current price and the cancellation terms on viator.com before you pay.
