Fun cycling tour - My daughter and I wanted to try something different to experience Japan so we booked this cycling tour. Our tour guide, Yassan, is easy to work with and friendly. The weather was hot and humid but biking along the riverbank and visiting the historical town and Katori Shrine was quite fun. Thank you for treating us to the tasty fruity popsicles from a local shop. It was a great idea in a hot day!!

Great way to see local sites - I highly recommend this bike tour with Yassan. I had a 12 hour layover between international flights and the bike tour was a great way to stretch my legs and see local sites. Yassan was an incredibly kind, hospitable and well organized guide, making for a smooth tour. The bicycle was good quality and Yassan took the ride at the pace I asked for. I saw a quaint historic town and a shrine in the forest, built around a sacred power spot. Beautiful to get out into nature with a local guide. Yassan recommended a place for lunch with yummy local food which was a good experience. I had a great time, so glad I went!

Custom Bike Ride! - custom made bike ride! We had a great bike ride before our long flight! Yassan was very accommodating - we wanted to skip the temples as we had already seen many, wanted more trees/nature instead and asked for a shorter ride (20km instead of 40km). He created a different route for us and it was lovely! We cycled around a beautiful lake, with a side stop to a tree-filled park and another stop for a delicious lunch at a local cafe. The kids loved cycling through the rice paddies and seeing turtles on the bike trail. What a perfect way to end our trip to Japan! Thank you, Yassan!

Highly recommended for road cycling enthusiasts! - It was really a unique experience to cycle with Yassan! As a passionate road cyclist myself, I have always been looking for 1-day road biking tours in whichever country I visit, so that I can get to explore the less touristy areas and learn more about the local nature/culture. And this tour definitely met my expectations, since Yassan not only took us to see the natural landscapes in Chiba, a lovely countryside 1 hour by train from downtown Tokyo, but also showed us several shrines, the Lake Inba-numa, and the Dutch Windmill Liefde. The vibe is totally different from the Japan I have seen. Plus, Yassan also had a VERY diverse and interesting professional background, so I enjoyed our chat as well. Kudos to Yassan! 😀

Bike Riding through Narita with Yassan - We had the best time with Yassan riding through country roads, past farmland and small neighborhoods, stopping to eat strawberries along the way, and topping it off with a delicious lunch at a local Japanese restaurant. If you want to enjoy local flavor with a wonderful, friendly, and knowledgeable guide, you couldn’t do any better than Yassan!

Highly recommended - Great ride. Our guide was very helpful. He adapted the ride so we could do a shorter ride of 40km. We have a lovely lunch in a traditional restaurant. Very nice flat riding though the rice fields. It was the perfect way to spend a day of stopover.

Padi field and villages cycle tour - I would recommend the transit traveller which are avid cycler. Guide are friendly and the food is like a home cook and reasonably cheap around the route.
