What you can expect

Explore a quieter side of Hiroshima on a guided e-bike ride through scenic countryside rarely visited by travellers. Led by a local guide, this relaxed experience takes you beyond the city into peaceful rural landscapes, where rice fields, family farms, and traditional homes shape the rhythm of everyday life. Ride at a comfortable pace with time to pause, take in the surroundings, and enjoy the slower pace of the countryside.

Each day is shaped by the season and the atmosphere of the area, allowing you to experience the countryside in a natural and unhurried way. Along the route, there may be opportunities to stop by local spots, enjoy regional flavours, or spend time in small community spaces that offer a glimpse into life outside the city.
