Tour en bicicleta lenta en los campos de té verde Matcha de Uji y Heritage

Beautiful experience! The guide was very professional and friendly and we enjoyed the city and its culture at its fullest by bike!

My guide today, Takashi, was an absolute prince, with expert area knowledge, chill vibe, and true kindness. I was the only person on the tour and loved every minute and learned so much (tea culture and histories of the shrines and temples on the route, even down to the growing seasons of the various flowers in this lovely landscape). Cycling along the river and through the colorful small streets of Uji made amazing memories for me and I was grateful at how accommodating Takashi was for my many requests to stop and photograph every beautiful thing along the way. He also kept safety in mind throughout our journey, alert to cars and pedestrians. Tried my first Matcha beverage at our lunch stop and I know I'll never taste anything as delicious as that again (I've already tried at 2 different Kyoto places and nope, not even close). Do this tour. You will have a really good day!

One of the highlights of our 13 day Japan trip. Exploring and touring the quaint town on bike was the way to go and Takashi was a great guide! He took us along a beautiful river trail, a serene temple up in the hill (amazingly with no other tourist or ppl at that time) and all the other must see/do in Uji. He was great at explaining about the culture, religion, tea. Thanks Takashi!

We very much enjoyed this slow cycling tour of Uji. The pacing worked well, with plenty of stops at various places of interest (museum, temples, shrines, and scenic photo spots). The tour guide was knowledgeable about the history and making of tea, and we had a beautiful view of the river on our ride. Not to mention the lovely cafe we stopped at for lunch! Highly recommend this tour.

Takashi was on time and clear with where to meet up I’m not particularly confident on a bike so I signed up with some concern All my concerns were unfounded because the brampton bike is so easy to ride A lot less intimidating than a normal bike We were taken to quiet streets and explored the whole area quiet easily with the bike and takashi’s guidance We enjoyed our time thoroughly It just means that it isn’t just a shopping trip You really do get a higher appreciation of the making of the tea

Very informative guide. Cycling was comfortable and absolutely loved the quiet temples which I wouldn’t have thought to visit.

Incredible bike trip through all of the sites of Uji. Fantastic, very knowledgeable guide who took lots of photos for us during our trip! He took us to a lot of sites we wouldn’t have known to go to. The bikes were so easy to ride and so fun — this was the best part of our time in Kyoto and helped make our honeymoon so special.

I went to Uji many times, but it was a very educational tour with so many places I didn’t know!

★★★★★ From 10am to 3pm, we joined a tour of about 12km by bike. It was a very fulfilling time because I was able to travel around a lot of places efficiently even in a short time because I was on a bicycle. I was able to visit the usual spots such as Uji Shrine and Byodo-in Temple Phoenix Hall, and enjoyed the city of Uji with the ease of a bicycle. One of the most impressive exhibits was the history and production method of tea in Chazunade. Our guide Takashi explained in great detail, and I was able to get to the background which I couldn't understand just by looking at it. Lunch was served at a restaurant along the river, with a nice view and a very pleasant time. At teatime, I also had a soft serve ice cream made with specially selected roasted matcha tea, which smelled really good and was excellent. I went to Amagase Dam on the way, but it was a very quiet and pleasant place with very few tourists. It was comfortable in the right climate for cycling, with lots of shade along the way. Brompton's stylish bicycles are also very nice and photogenic. This tour is highly recommended so that you can fully enjoy the charms of Uji in a short time.

Uji was beautiful and I couldn’t think of a better way to explore it than slowly biking through the city!
