Nikko Highlights Tour from Tokyo

If you want to visit a popular sightseeing area in beautiful nature, this tour is perfect for you! I'm an experienced national government licensed guide familiar with the popular destination, Nikko. Two hours away from Tokyo by train, Nikko mesmerizes visitors with beautiful nature and fantastic structures placed on the World Heritage list. We will visit Nikko by public transportation and walk around the sacred area, appreciating the natural beauty and traditional sites that have been religious centers of Buddhism and Shintoism, Japan's indigenous religion. The main highlight is the Toshogu Shrine, which is dedicated to the deified spirit of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of Tokugawa Shogunate. The shrine has a lot of traditional structures featuring lavish and exquisite carvings in colors. The combination of its natural and human-made beauties is Nikko's attraction. There is an old proverb: Never say wonderful without seeing Nikko. I'm looking forward to touring with you!
