Excellent tour with Take! - September 2024: Our guide, Takeshi, led my husband and me through the vibrant streets of Oshiage and Asakusa, as well as along the beautiful Sumida River. The experience was truly wonderful! We also made a quick stop at some temples and shrines, where Takeshi provided insightful explanations about Japanese culture and religion, which we greatly appreciated. He took plenty of photos during the tour and shared them with us via email within just two hours. A tip for those taking the summer morning tour: don’t forget to apply a generous amount of sunblock! Takeshi also provided us with bottled water before the trip. Overall, this was a fun and memorable way to explore Tokyo. I would rate it 10/10!

Thank you Takeshi - This was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Takeshi was a wonderful guide and explained so much to us about Japanese culture, Tokyo's history as we rode through, and the trees and flowers we saw. It was on New Years Day but he still showed up and gave us a wonderful tour. We are so grateful for the experience and for his knowledge and skills. Thank you Takeshi from Kat and Lewis!

Amazing start to my journey in Japan - Fantastic way of exploring and learning a little bit more about Japan. The ride through the narrow streets, visiting some of the shrines and temples while learning a little bit about them and interacting with some of the locals at the traditional and original shopping mall was all bliss and very fun. This is definitely a good start to your journey of Japan! The tour guide was also very accommodating and he also takes good pictures and teaches you about Japanese culture. Highly recommend!

Excellent introduction to Tokyo highly recommend - As first-time visitors to Tokyo, we couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the city. Takeshi's passion for sharing his hometown with others was palpable, and it left us feeling inspired to explore even more of what Tokyo has to offer. If you're looking for a unique and immersive way to discover Tokyo, I can't recommend Takeshi's bike tour highly enough. It's the perfect blend of adventure, culture, and expert guidance—a must-do for anyone visiting the city.

Great personal/local bike tour - My wife and I had a great private tour with Takeshi. We saw both a Shinto temple and Budhist temple, candy factory, and plenty of beautiful sights. Great 2 1/2 hour tour of a part of Tokyo neighborhood that we wouldn’t have seen on our own. It was also great to have the personal/local knowledge of Takeshi. We highly recommend him and the tour.

Great short bike tour of Tokyo! - We had an amazing tour of Tokyo with Takeshii as our family’s guide. Not too strenuous of a ride, just right for recreational bike riders with our 13 and 16 year old kids. Saw a ton including 2 temple and a shrine which Takeshi took the time to educate us about (great to get a sense of the traditions associated with each). Could not recommend this tour enough. So wonderful!

A glimpse behind the scenes - A fantastic glimpse of the real Tokyo behind the neon and the crowds. This trip down neighbourhood streets showed me a side of this mega city that I would never have seen.
