5.00The perfect activity for those looking for an adventure with movement. It was a great way to see multiple temples, shrines, and historical city locations. Michael, our guide, was an amazing historian. Since the bikes are semi electric, you could make the riding as easy or difficult as you chose.
Well worth it.

5.00Very good tour. Our guide (Henry) was very knowledgeable regarding Japanese history and culture. He made the tour very interesting and enjoyable. We got to see temples off the beaten track, which is just what we needed after experiencing crowds at the more popular temples.
Fantastic

5.00Great experience! A fantastic way to get to know Kyoto without being on your feet for hours. Mike was an excellent guide who was clearly well versed on Kyoto, a great communicator and lovely humor! Highly recommended.
