3 amazing merits of this bike tour!
#1. Start/end at your hotel
This cycling tour starts and ends at your hotel! Hard to tell the taxi driver to go to the meeting point in Japanese? sweaty after the tour? No worries! (If your hotel is out of the range, let's discuss the starting point. Additional charges to be applied.)
#2. e-bikes
We use e-bikes, so the motor will assist you when you pedal. It's a relaxing activity. You don’t have to worry about the hill any more!
#3. Private
We will propose a route but this is a private tour, so you can go wherever you want with your own pace. You can also make requests such as changes of starting time, extension of the tour duration, or visits to certain spots. Tell your requests when you sign up. (Additional charges to be applied for each request)
Our tours range from 15-20km, from skyscrapers to back streets in Tokyo, with multiple short stops along the way to give commentaries and let you drink up. Let's enjoy the breeze while cycling.
