Superb 5hr tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Mayco was an excellent tour guide for our cycle trip. She has a wealth of knowledge that she shared and was happy to answer all of our questions. Mayco comes from Osaka and speak excellent English and has a wonderful sense of humour. Lunch was included and she encouraged us to try various food and drink. Would definitely recommend this tour. Great way to see Osaka.

Most Amazing Bike Tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

Matt was our tour guide today on 11/4 at 10:00. One word to describe the tour. AMAZING. I’ve gone on many bike tours around the world and this is easily in my top two. Not only did Matt exemplify an experienced tour guide with how he managed the group, he also was able to share with us effectively his vast knowledge of Japanese history that was easy to listen to and digest. Biking all day felt like only a couple seconds and it was all over. I CANNOT recommend this tour enough, especially with Matt! Keep up the great work!

Fun experience

I thought the tour was very informative engaging and interesting bringing our guides personal experiences and historical knowledge. It also showed a lot of the city in a way you would not travel on foot.
