Free Bus Tours in Nara

In a move that makes us wonder whether Nara has a bit of a chip on its shoulder about its more popular neighbour Kyoto, the Nara Prefectural Government is bringing back its free bus tours for a limited time. This isn’t the first time that Nara’s government has provided free entertainment either. Are they trying to drive tourist traffic away from Kyoto and into Nara? Maybe! But, who cares? You can’t get much more cheapo than free!
