Excellent cycling tour of temples, shrines and Gion district. - Our super guide Indra took us on a perfect tour of temples, shrines and the Gion district. The cycling was easy and Indra kept us engaged with plenty of information and fun facts along the way. He also showed us all the right spots for great photos. Highly recommend.

A pleasant day in Kyoto - Had an excellent time cycling through Kyoto with Akira. We had 5 people in our party and another couple joined us so the size was intimate and we were able to spend lots of time learning from our guide.

A great start in Kyoto. - We had a really good morning sightseeing. A gentle bike ride and even at 32DegC it was still easy enough and no real hills to cycle up. Knowledgeable staff and very friendly. A great way to start in Kyoto. Thanks Juan.

Just do it - Jamie was amazing. He took us to places that weren’t on the itinerary, gave us a wonderful insider view on the city and even taught us our numbers in Japanese in a way you’ll never forget. A great way to see the city.
