E-Bike 奈良のハイライト - 東大寺、刃物、鹿、神社、宝石

We had such a wonderful time exploring Nara Park via electric bike. There’s no way we would’ve been able to see everything in one day by foot. This gave us the opportunity to really see and experience the entire park and more! Our guide, Christophe, was excellent!!!

The meeting point was easy to find and once you know the amount of acres the park entails, you thank whatever deity you believe in for eBikes. You could walk and wonder for miles without the bike. Christophe, set us up for our visit in Japan. The tour was full of wonderfully presented information that created respect and a basic understanding of what the Deer park, Temples and Shrines stood for and continue to represent. I would, and have already, recommended this tour.

A lovely afternoon out, though quite heavy on the Nara Park experience and lighter on the temples/knife aspect. We were a large-ish group in a crowd and it was sometimes hard to get a real history background on the locality (the deer were also a distraction) and the knife store visit was just that -- not a special event per se.

Best way to see Nara! The e-bikes were fantastic. But the tour guide was even better. Matthew was kind, knowledgeable and very informative. Would definitely recommend taking this tour.

One of the things we really appreciated about Christophe was his kindness We were running late and he patiently waited for us to join the group. He explained in great detail why things were the way that they were with historical accuracy. He provided snacks for us as well as the deer. We highly recommend Christophe as a guide.

I thought about taking a bike tour of Nara because I thought it would be nicer to move around and see more things in the time that we had! And I was right! Not to mention, our guide gave us wonderful information along the way. It was informative as well as fun.

Fabulous experience hitting the best of Nara. Very enjoyable afternoon. Our guide was knowledgeable and gracious. Highly recommend.

The tour path was simple riding, and saved my feet a ton of steps. I went in the early AM group and there were far more tourists at these places as we were leaving than when we began. This made for a more calm tour. The group tour guide, Matheus, was absolutely wonderful. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and made me feel very safe riding the ebike for the first time in Japan. I think this is the absolute best way to see Nara. Go shop at the market and grab a bite at any of the wonderful small restaurants on the old side of Nara. They have so much local items made in Nara. Id give them 10 stars if I could!

Matheus was a great guide in that he was able to answer our questions as we traveled around the sites. We were lucky enough to be the only ones on the ride so got lots of opportunities to discover what was there. I recommend going on the 9:00 tour before Nara gets busy.

I was disappointed by this tour. The guide either knew fairly little about the history of the sites or chose not to share. I tried asking for more information a few times and got only surface-level answers. His attitude toward the spirituality of the sites also felt flippant at times. I felt rushed at the Great Buddha Hall and in Kasuga Taisha, but we also spent a while just riding in circles over the grass of the park. Much of the tour had us riding through densely crowded areas, which was frustrating and seemed disrespectful to the pedestrians trying to walk. I appreciated going to the knife shop. I was able to purchase a nice gift at a reasonable price.
