1. Bicycle is by far the best way to get around Kyoto’s crowded streets.

Kyoto has a great geography for two wheels. Why wait for crowded buses or be stuck in traffic with an expensive taxi when you have the freedom to move around at will like the locals do.

2. We take you on scenic routes which are chosen with your safety in mind.

Riding a bike alone you might get lost or end up on very narrow streets. We know the best way to get around and give you tips on staying safe. We also know quiet side streets with lots of character and charm.

3.We tell you stories of the city’s past and give you background knowledge along the way.

​Learn about the world of the shogun and samurai, the geisha house and even get a background on the shinto and buddhist beliefs. Learning about the cultural legacy of old Kyoto is a great insight to Japanese customs and culture.

My two daughters (17 & 21) and I had a lovely trip and Philipe was an amazing tour guide! We toured the east side of Kyoto and hiked up a beautiful mountain trail to an amazing city view! The hike was peaceful and serene but a bit challenging if you dont hike much but if you go at a slower pace its manageable and worth the beautiful view! We had a lovely picnic lunch on the philosophers pathway. It was such a wonderful and memorable day and we’re so grateful for the insight and information Philipe provided during the tour. We highly recommend this tour! Thank you so much!

This was the highlight of our stay in Kyoto! After spending the previous day being hot, sweaty, and miserable navigating through dense crowds at the most popular sights, this tour was the complete opposite. Philippe took us off the heavily beaten path to areas that weren’t as popular but just as amazing (if not better) because they weren’t teeming with tourists. My favorite parts were riding along the Kamo River and taking routes through Gion that I wouldn’t have thought of going down had we been on our own. We initially thought it was going to be a long day, but the tour went by in a flash and I wish we could've booked another with him. We also chose to rent e-bikes which was a big help if you’re hesitant about the physical aspect of cycling. 10/10!

Excellent tour with Philippe.
I highly recommend it. Chilling on the bikes with fresh air during a hot day was the perfect way to stroll through the city.
Merci

We had an awesome day out, maybe our favourite in Kyoto. Kevin was a great guide, knowledgeable, passionate and fun. We went to all the spots we had on our list and Kevin gave us great insight into the historical significance of each. The bikes were comfy and well maintained, and Kyoto is the perfect city to explore by bicycle because of how flat most of the roads are. 10/10 recommend! If we had more time we would definitely book the West Kyoto tour too!

This was the BEST thing we did on our Japan trip. My son and I had such an amazing time. We were lucky to have Phillipe as our guide and a great bunch of fellow travellers along for the ride. He was so knowledgeable and patient. I look forward to doing this again in the future and highly recommend this experience!

Responsive, easy to book this bike tour for my family (two athletic teens and two moderately-active adults). We had a blast, it was definitely a highlight of our time in Kyoto. E-bikes weren’t a necessity for the Eastern loop we did, but made for an easy, and really fun ride around town. Highly recommend!

We biked around East Kyoto which I ended up being so happy about less people amazing temples and gardens and different cool areas our French guide was extremely knowledgeable so he was very interesting to listen to. For us 3-4 hours would have been perfect 5-6 is a little long but that is a personal thing. My daughter (22) and I took off and biked all around after. I would highly recommend this tour and this company.
