We had such a blast with Darren and were part of an awesome group which made for a super fun night. Darren was very knowledgeable spilling interesting facts and information, took us to some great eateries, we stopped at an old school gaming arcade in between, and then ended the night at a karaoke bar where we even got to hear Darren’s great voice - unfortunately the same couldn’t be said about ours 😂 This tour was a highlight of our 12 night stay. Thanks Darren you’re the man!
Great tour!

An absolutely wonderful time and I highly recommend. The weather was perfect. Our guide Mike did a wonderful job showing us around to some amazing sites including a museum, beautiful Okasa castle, cherry blossoms at the many parks, we stopped for a delicious lunch and then went to a cute cafe for Matcha and a snack. We really got to see Osaka nature and the wonderful charm and energy. I had the best time. And love a great bike tour. The time went by so fast!
Good Ride for a Good Cause

We enjoyed our ride with Remi K and it was her first time as a guide. It is a good way to see the Osaka Castle area and some temples, not to mention a close up view of Osaka traffic. Bicycles were dated but as they are reconditioned to support the homeless they were acceptable.
