This was a fun and informative tour and a great way to see Osaka in a few hours. It was all the better because our tour guide Ko was super friendly and knew a lot about the city but also Japanese history. He was funny and took care of all our needs. Very highly recommended if you get to go with Ko!).
A brilliant way to see the city and learn so much from Co, our amazing guide. Great mixture of the grand and the everyday Ōsaka. Easy cycling.
I wanted to do something different, and as a cyclist at home I found this cycling tour, and thought it would be a great thing to do. I really enjoyed it! KO was a local lad, and very knowledgeable. He gave an excellent tour with just the right level of history and fun facts for the group. I was worried about the heat, but Osaka is basically flat, and the e bike made it a very easy ride. Plenty of stops on the way, and Ko took us to all of the best places to take pictures! Thoroughly recommend.
This was our first time using an electric bike and it was a lovely experience. Ko was a great guide. Being a local he knew the history, best areas and was obviously very proud of this lovely City- and he was so easygoing and friendly. A really nice way to spend a few hours. Highly recommended.
Great day out on the bikes in Osaka. Ko was an incredible leader, knowledgeable, funny, and full of great information. Definitely recommend if you want a great way to see several key spots in Osaka! 5 plus stars for me!
This is a really great tour. Ko is a briilant guide telling you loads of interesting things about Osaka.
Best way to get an orientation of Osaka. This is a well run bike tour covering Isaja from Nth / Sth & East /west . Ko knows the best photo points too!
Ko was a great tour guide who shared lots of history and humour with us. There were 3 couples in our group. The eBikes made it very easy to get around a large chunk of Osaka on a hot day. We would thoroughly recommend this tour!
Ko is an excellent guide and we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. It gives a really great oversight of Osaka, especially as the tour takes in both the north and south areas. Even on a warm sunny day, cycling around helped us to keep cool and the e-bikes do most of the work for you. The vast majority of the route is flat anyway, but even still not much pedalling is required! Definitely a great way to see the city, get a feel for the different neighbourhoods, and figure out where you’d like to spend more time afterwards.
Very good tour, with Ko and he certainly knew the area and the local history. I highly reccomend this tour. The bike are all highly maintained and fairly new and up to date bikes. We saw so much more of Osaka city on tbis tour.
