Beat way to experience Kyoto - This was by far the best experience I’ve had in Kyoto. We loved going through the neighborhoods that we normally wouldn’t see. Julian had great knowledge of the area and made everyone feel comfortable.

Fantastic day out. Cannot recommend this tour enough. Will be telling all my family and friends. - Full day biking around Kyoto. Lots of things did not go to plan: the weather, changes to some of the attractions and my party arriving late due to getting lost. However Quin made sure the day was as enjoyable as possible. The sites we unfortunately could not visit were changed for other sites of a similar vibe and historic value, and overall we had a fantastic time. Quin had lots of anecdotes and stories, and was very knowledgeable. We were all friends by the end of the day. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to see tourist attractions and back streets alike.

Kyoto bike tour - We had a fantastic day seeing so many great places all around Kyoto by bike with Jay. It was a lot of fun and extremely informative. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, possibly the highlight of our trip.

A little bit of Zen - Great Day. Our guide Jay had been living in Kyoto for 14 years and provided an excellent social, spiritual commentary on Kyoto as he guided us safely around the narrow streets. If you like seeing things by bike, Jay and Cycle Kyoto will take great care of you.
