5.00My Daughter and I had booked this tour and we actually ended up having a tour with just us and the tour guide. Im not sure what her name was but the email female name states Yuki? She was very nice and knowledgeable. She even had historic photos of the places we visited from the past. I loved being on the bike and riding around the city. The rose gardens were beautiful and the castle was breathtaking. The time went by so quickly. She also told us they do bike tours in Kyoto too. We just didn't have enough time. The bikes worked great, they gave us water and sunscreen. Loved this activity. Very very fun. Highly recommend Cycle Osaka!

5.00Such a fun half day exploring the city with a local guide!! We loved Mayco and could’ve spent the whole day with her! It was the best way to see some of the highlights of Osaka. I’d love to do the full day if I’m back!

5.00Great way to orientate yourself with the city. Bikes are super easy to use so you don’t have to be a biking pro and plenty of mini stops to take in the sites. Lee was a super knowledgeable host. Highly recommend

5.00Good tour with Matt. He was an excellent guide and very friendly. The only thing I wished we could’ve done was ride the bike a bit more and stopped at the locations a little quicker!
