We utilize scenic backstreets to avoid traffic and maximize your sightseeing experience. You may think this 3 hours bike ride is too long for you,, but we will guide you with a lot of descriptions of Japanese and Kyoto cultures so you will not become bored with us.Also visiting a real temple and trying real Green tea will be one of the most memorable experiences in Kyoto! Jump on a bicycle and enjoy the unique sights of Kyoto. Pedal through temples, stroll among shrines, and sip green tea while viewing exquisite hidden gardens.

About Kyoto

Kyoto, Japan's imperial capital for over a thousand years, is a city of temples, gardens, wooden townhouses and refined traditions.

The city holds many of Japan's most treasured sites. Fushimi Inari Taisha's thousands of vermilion torii gates climb a wooded mountain, Kinkaku-ji's Golden Pavilion shimmers over its pond, and Kiyomizu-dera's wooden stage juts from the hillside above the city. The rock garden of Ryoan-ji and the mossy grounds of Ginkaku-ji invite quiet contemplation.

Top-ranked sights in Kyoto: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
