Highly recommend tour - This was a great tour. We visited in August when it was HOT and humid, but the bike ride made it possible for us to see a lot and endure the heat. I highly recommend this tour to get a little glimpse of Osaka.

Great cycle tour around the city. - We had a great time on this tour, the route was relaxed and we felt very safe cycling around Osaka. Our tour guide Matt was very friendly and knew a lot about the city. We got to see some unique spots and learned about the history of the city. I would definitely recommend seeing Osaka this way!

Great bike tour in Osaka - One of our highlights during our stay in Osaka was the half-day bike tour (3-4 hours) with inkansai (Cycle Osaka) through the city. We (family with 9-year-old child) were private with great bikes, a great guide and comfortable on the road. Once again it was enriching to see a big city by bike from a different perspective. Great organized, beautiful places and exciting insights. Right back.

100% recommended - I really liked it, but my 15-year-old son loved it. It is a good option to take a city tour without the children getting bored. She's guided by a charm. The bikes are very good, with very comfortable chairs. 100% recommended

Great morning tour - Had a wonderful morning tour with Matt. At the stops we learned about Osaka’s history and we enjoyed seeing places we just wouldn’t have had time to see on our short stay. Matt was friendly and interesting. We went on a Sunday morning so the streets weren’t too busy- I’m sure it would be trickier to navigate on a weekday. The Cycle Osaka office is a short walk from the metro so very easy to get to and the 3 hour tour was the perfect length for us.

A fun way to explore Osaka’s history and culture. - Had a fabulous time biking in Osaka with our tourist-guide Matt. His tour was both educational and entertaining. We particularly enjoyed his quirky & up-beat way. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is relatively fit.

Easy way to cycle around Osaka - Great bike tour of Osaka led by Peter. Easy flat cycling. Bikes hybrid and really light to ride. Great overview of the city. Small amount of road cycling - mostly cycle paths.

A wonderful way to get a snapshot of Osaka, when you have limited time. - We had a great guide, and a small group. Only 5 riders. Peter was very knowledgeable and friendly and made the bike ride very enjoyable. It gave us a great overview of Osaka especially the castle.
