Overview

The best part isn't the destination. It's everything in between.
Ride through towering bamboo groves, peaceful riverside paths, quiet farmland, and iconic temples as you discover western Kyoto on a guided e-bike adventure.
Join a small group of no more than 8 guests and explore Kyoto at a relaxed pace on a premium electric bike.
Cycle through the famous Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, follow the scenic Katsura River, and ride quiet backstreets that most visitors never see. Along the way, discover a slower side of Kyoto before visiting the peaceful Ryoan-ji Temple and its world-famous Zen rock garden.
Finish at the spectacular Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), one of Japan's most iconic landmarks, where shimmering gold leaf reflects across a tranquil pond.
With all fees included, you'll experience more than just the highlights. Your local guide shares stories of Kyoto's history, culture, and daily life, making the journey between each destination just as memorable as the landmarks themselves.
