Actually Tails should be fine: once Tor has bootstrapped Tails syncs the time using htpdate which should also fix v3 onion service access. So I believe intrigeri's questions were only for bootstrapping + creating a circuit to a non-onion end-point -- once Tails succeeds with those it *can* sync the time accurately.
