Hidden Kyoto E-Biking tour - NORU Kyoto Bike Tours: timing, place, and how the day runs

1.Hidden Kyoto E-Biking tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,843 reviews · from $116Our pick

Small-group Hidden Kyoto e-biking with foldable e-bikes, helmet, and an English guide visiting Kinkakuji and quiet Zen back streets.

“Our guide Yuta (pronounced Utah) was amazing. First off his English was the best of any Japanese guide we’ve experienced. Most interestingly, he went to a depth in explaining Japanese culture and tradition that we were not expecting; from historic facts and figures, to explaining the details of the tea ceremony, to educating us on cultural dos and don’ts, to a most interesting smattering of Zen Buddhist teachings, Yuta really took a simple bike tour to a whole new and unexpected level. I highly recommend this tour with Yuta!”

“We had an awesome day out, maybe our favourite in Kyoto. Kevin was a great guide, knowledgeable, passionate and fun. We went to all the spots we had on our list and Kevin gave us great insight into the historical significance of each. The bikes were comfy and well maintained, and Kyoto is the perfect city to explore by bicycle because of how flat most of the roads are. 10/10 recommend! If we had more time we would definitely book the West Kyoto tour too!”

“We loved this tour! I had not used an e bike before so was a bit unsure how it would go but it was such an easy and relaxing way to get around (even uphill)! Aska is a lovely guide and just a delightful person in general... we really enjoyed talking to her about various things throughout the morning. She is very welcoming and friendly and the sights we went to were beautiful, not crowded, and not places we would have picked out on our own to see so it felt very unique and intimate with our tiny group of 5 travelers. This was the perfect way to spend a…”

“Great E bike tour around the historic areas of Kyoto. We received a lot of information and history of the shrines, temples and Geisha. It was especially nice to go to some lesser traveled spots to be able to enjoy without the huge crowds that seem to be everywhere in Kyoto. And of course the E bike and the ride along the river was icing on the cake. Two thumbs up!”
