Monkey and bamboo forest bike tour - The tour was great! Beautiful places and really fun to do with kids. Our guide Peter was awesome. Bikes are new and easy to ride.

The only way to see Arashiyama - I can’t think of a better way to see the sites around Arashiyama than on this bike tour. From meandering the rice paddies to cycling down the Main Street - it was amazing. We had two younger kids with us but the way Ray worked with all members of the family was excellent. Local knowledge and the ease of not sticking to tight deadlines like a bus tour would have was well received. Highly recommend this tour to anybody.

Highlight of our vacation! - We did the family bike tour. Our guide, Ray was really good with our kids and compassionate towards them when they fell a couple times. He was also very informative about Kyoto and spoke English. We all had a great time and it was the highlight of our Japan trip! We highly recommend this experience and would do it again if we had opportunity.

Great Guide! Great bike tour! - RAY was an amazing guide for our family bike tour around Kyoto. With 2 children (8 and 5) and 5 adults in tow, Ray skillfully led us through the streets of Kyoto, constantly keeping a watchful eye to ensure we were able to safely stay together. He provided interesting and engaging insights as he led us to a quaint playground for the kids, through the awe-inspiring bamboo forest, through fields of rice (where we had a rice cake snack, of course!), and to the fabulous Monkey Park. The children thoroughly enjoyed Ray who asked them questions to get them involved and provided each with a special book for stamps they gathered along our journey. Our Kyoto Bike Tours was definitely the highlight of our visit to Kyoto. Thank you, Ray, for a memory we will not forget…especially our last stop and the best donut I’ve ever eaten!

Best way to see Kyoto! - Bike tour was amazing. Ray stuck with us even though it was rainy and cold, and could not have been a better guide! Very knowledgeable and kind person. He made the tour efficient but also took plenty of time to take some awesome photos for us, which he carefully edited and sent to us the same day. The best pics of our trip! Also extremely patient and accommodating to the kids on our tour. Overall, I would recommend to anyone who wants to see Kyoto by bike.
