14 rate this tour with 4.9 stars

My advise to the company is: offer all the participants the choise of an e-bike directly in your programma without an extra fee. It s a tough ride. We liked it. The tour gives a lot of good views and Cas is a very good papperazi.

First of all, we had a very good guide, and the route was beautiful with many highlights and excellent explanations from our guide. That being said, we do have a comment for Baja Bikes. In an email, Baja Bikes clearly explained that it wasn't possible to rent electric bikes, but this isn't true; electric bikes are indeed available for rent.

We had a great time. The guide was very considerate of the heat, made sure we had enough to drink and eat. He gave us lots of interesting background info and showed us great spots to take pictures. The lunch was excellent. It was a well-filled and rewarding cycling day that gave us the opportunity to explore and appreciate the many highlights of Kyoto, from its historic temples and serene gardens to its vibrant streets and rich cultural heritage.
