Highly Recommend - I highly recommend this bicycling tour. It was definitely the highlight of our trip! The town we rode through is absolutely beautiful, and Jonah was an excellent guide. His English is perfect, and we learned so much from him. He gave information and told stories about the different places and landmarks along the way, and it was a great way to learn more about Japanese culture outside the touristy areas. We met several people from the community along the tour, and they were all so interesting and fun to get to know. The lunch in the middle was amazing as well! The chef put so much love into her food, and she was able to accommodate my food allergies. It was the best meal we had in Japan! Thanks so much, Jonah, for an amazing day!

Great tour guide and beautiful countryside - Great time with Jonah, (he's actually Japanese!) who speaks perfect English. e-bikes were adequate for getting up the big hills. Great scenery and lucky enough to meet some of the residents and businesses in Oasa. Lunch was one the highlights. Next time we will visit in the fall when we can see some color. It would be amazing. Their shuttle van came and got us at the bus top from Hiroshima and took us directly to the bike shop. Bikes were easy to operate. Hardly any cars around so navigating the streets was safe. There were multiple outings we could have done, and Jonah noted, after describing all of the things you can see, that we could alter our tour to see something else if we wanted. Would recommend this biking tour of Oasa and the surrounding area. It was also nice to be able to support local operators who personally have a stake in the business.

A must do! - A real highlight of my two week holiday in Japan! So pleased we got to experience this really beautiful part of Japan, outside of the city and away from the crowds. The scenery is incredible! The e-bikes were great and made our adventure much easier. Jonah was a brilliant guide and is rightly very proud of this beautiful place. We loved it and would strongly recommend it!

Cycling through rice fields, forests, old farmhouses, mountain views, loved it! - This is a lovely way to experience the Japanese countryside and rice farming traditions far from the crowds. This excursion was a highlight of our trip, and Jonah our guide (fluent English) made it fun and memorable. The al fresco farm to table lunch was an added treat with views of snow capped mountains and the tastiest tempura of the trip. Johah has lots of itinerary options depending on your interests. You can easily day-trip it from Hiroshima city.

Wonderful bike tour - It was a beautiful and interesting bike ride through the lonely and breathtaking hinterland. The guide spoke perfect English and was super likable. All in all, we can only recommend this tour, especially if you want to have a break from the overflowing cities.

A great day in the country with an experienced guide. - Our cycling tour of Owasa with Jonah was 100% the highlight of our trip to Japan. It was so easy to get to the meeting spot via one bus from Hiroshima and Jonah was there to meet us. The bikes provided were excellent and it wasn’t long before we were off to see the fall colours outside of town. After the fall colours we biked to the top of a mountain and enjoyed incredible views and some classic 80’s songs on Jonah’s portable speaker. A highlight of the day was a visit with a rice farmer. We received a generous tour of his farm and were shown how they harvest and dry the rice for next years planting. The farmer is 90 years old and seems like he has another 90 years in him yet. We stopped at a rural property for lunch - the food was fantastic and they were able to address our food restrictions. If you like tempura, you’ll want to visit this restaurant! Jonah was well prepared with local history and is clearly passionate about the Owasa area. If you are thinking of including a day in the country on your trip to Japan, put this outing at the top of your list.

Highlight of our holiday! - One of the best cycling trip i have done. Cycled through the hue of autumn, saw waygu cattles, cycled up and hill for a splendid view of oasa, had a delicious local lunch embellish with local edible flowers, visited a yogi for massage and even a local sake brewery. All in 4 hours. The ebikes made cycling a breeze. Our guide Jonas is funny and kept us entertained throughout. Highly recommended!

Perfect trip in Oasa - This trip is just amazing and it is a must for anybody who wish to see a different side of Japan! We had a fantastic time. Jonah is very friendly and he provided loads of information about Oasa, Hiroshima and Japan. We felt cared for and looked after the whole time. The lunch was just delicious and the place was breathtaking and very relaxing. Cycling in Oasa was one of our high-lights on our trip in Japan. Jonah offered two different tours according to our preferrences and abilities. The e-bike just made the day easier even for people who have not cycled for some time. I would highly recommend this trip!

The best guided tour ever! - What a great experience this was! We booked this trip while staying in Hiroshima. It was only 1 hours drive with the JR express bus. At arrival we were warmy welcomed by the owner and the guides. After a short introduction from the guide Jonah, we went off for a 4 hours trip through the beautifull countryside. Jonah showed us around while feeding us with interesting info about this region. It was good to have electric bikes, for there were some pretty challenging hills to climb😉 At top of one hill there was a special tree, the only one left of his kind, where we took some pictures. We had lunch in a litlle restaurant with a beautifull herb and flower garden. The lunch looked like a picasso painting with all these beautifull flowers and tasten Lively. We also went to a place where they practised foot-massage. We were invited to join and ofcourse we couldn't say no to that. It was a very enjoyfull experience. At the end of our tour, we also visited a sake brewery. The owner gave us a tour through his brewery and were invited to taste the different tasts of sake. Actually, they all tasted for more😁 but unfortunatly our tour had come to an end and we needed to get back to the bus station. It was the best day of our 5 weeks holiday tour and I would like to thank the guides, Jonah and Tak, for their warm and friendly guiding during this day.
