Green surroundings of Kyoto

Sep. 2023 • Couples

We spontaneously booked this tour and we are happy we did! Even though we had 33°C, it was an amazing tour! Our guide Phillippe knew a lot of historical things to tell and showed us very nice nature areas along the river, beautiful zen gardens at the silver pavilion as well as at Heian Shrine but also the Gion district where he told us of Geisha's life. Due to the temperature we arrived very exhausted but happy! We highly recommend this tour to every tourist!

Enjoyable ride through Kyoto with a local.

Sep. 2023 • Family

Phillip was a great tour leader. He was very laid back and he demonstrated a true love for the city and its history and culture. He lead us along paths and laneways would not have otherwise seen. I went with my husband and two teens 13, and 14 years. We rode in a group totalling 8 people. We really enjoyed the day. We also enjoyed hopping off the bikes and exploring shrines and gardens on foot in particular Ginkakuji Precinct.

Very knowledgeable tour guide, passionate about Kyoto, Japan and Japanese culture in general. Explanations were great both about Geishas and all the shrines we saw during the walk. Overall a great and worth tour.

Great experience, saw a few geishas and the whole area. Our guide was great and showed us very special places. For instance a stone used to crawl through in order to get rid of a bad habit and afterwards make a commitment to yourself what you want to do instead.

Kyoto day tour for family of 6

Jul. 2023 • Family

We were met at the train station by Niall who guided us through to the van. We went to the markets, ate some amazing food, bought some personalised chopsticks, then did a tour of the ninja museum. After this we went to a shrine, then a zen garden before a quick stop off in a historical area of Kyoto. In one day we saw so much!

Very friendly and very competent tour guide. The tour was very well prepared and organized. Everything was perfect.
We could see Geishas and the sunset at the Pagoda was very beautiful. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Hi. We are coming in mid/late July - will it be too hot for a bike tour? Thanks for any insight.

It’s a great way to see Kyoto. Haven’t been in July but a personal choice. However you see the city you’ll be hot and sweaty! I believe this company does tours that are not cycling too. They were excellent
