東京下町自転車ツアー Tokyo Backstreets Bike Tour
説明
●観光地だけじゃない！ 東京の路地裏の魅力！ ツアーの出発点は、東京の下町、曳舟。浅草や東京スカイツリーからも近く、アクセスも便利です。 3月から4月にかけて、コースの周辺は桜が満開。ツアーでも、その桜の下を走るポイントがいくつもあります。 また、各立ち寄りスポットの間は、大きなメインストリートではなく、あえて路地裏を走ります。ほかの都市に比べて複雑でわかりにくいといわれている東京の道ですが、このエリアをよく知るガイドの案内で、下町ならではの「迷宮」に迷い込んでみてください。 ●江戸の町並みを感じるサイクリング 江戸散策や街歩きは数あれど、自転車を使ったツアーは、それほど多くはありません。 江戸時代の町並みを思い浮かべながらゆっくりとコースを楽しむもよし、風を感じながら軽快な自転車のスピードを満喫するもよし、参加者さまのペースに合わせて東京のツアーを巡ります。 ご希望があれば、2人乗りのタンデム自転車も利用できます。事前にお申し込みください。

Sakuramochi, a Cherry Cake, is one of the most famous Japanese traditional sweets, which is wrapped in a salt-pickled cherry leaf, filled with red bean paste. They say, this shop founded the first Sakuramochi in Edo era. Why it is wrapped with salt-pickled leaf? Probably, somebody looked to a lot of leaves on ground, fallen from cherry blossom trees, and thought to use them for some food. ※On Monday, we visit another Japanese sweet shop.
This temple is a part of Sensoji, founded in 595. There are many images of a “daikon (Japanese radish)”and a pouch in the temple.The daikon represents our minds trapped in deep ignorance, emanating poison of anger，but by offering a daikon to temple, that poison will be purged from our body and soul. The pouch is a symbol of treasure, and it represents the gift of prosperity in business . There is a beautiful garden, which is authentic Japanese style, in the temple. You can ride a small transportation (like a train) to go to the main building instead of walking up stairs.
Founded in 1063, this shrine is now a “Power spot”, that is popular for persons who want lovers or marriage partners. (Power Spot=Sacred place) ・Beckoning Cat, Fortune Cat They say, the first beckoning image was found in this shrine. We Japanese believe that beckoning cats brings great fortune, Such as business prosperity, family happiness. Cat’s left paw brings many customers. Right paw brings money.

Takeshi was a very nice guide. He took pictures along the way and explained the significance of each of the places we stopped. It was quite fun to see Tokyo from a bike and get to ride through residential neighborhoods alongside locals.
Wow! Thank you for your great comments! It is so appreciated! I had a great time to cycle with you, too. See you again some time! Takeshi
Excellent bike tour of Tokyo! More interesting to go through back streets like locals to appreciate their lived experiences, & learn of unique spots that tourists would not discover on their own. Our guide was fabulous, knowledgeable & friendly!
Thank you for your great comments! It is so appreciated! I hope you had a nice time during the tour. See you again some time! Takeshi
We could make this tour. The Meeting Point was not correct. Provider gave us a second meeting place. This was not correct. Talked to provider. His English was not good. Tour was meant to be of Tokyo. Meeting place was in distance suburb. Strange that tour had 120 reviews, all but one 5 out of 5. Only one rating is 4.9. Reviews have similar wording. Have doubts.
The reason the tour was a no-show is that you didn’t arrive at the designated meeting point by the agreed time. It seems you went to a completely different location, but that is your responsibility—I am not at fault. I waited for you at the tour office for over an hour, but you never showed up. It’s completely unacceptable for you to ignore your own responsibility and leave a negative review.
It is a great way to see a nice part of tokyo. We have spencer about 4,5 hours with a personal guide
Thank you for your great comments! Have a nice stay in Japan, and see you again some time! Takeshi
We loved touring around the back streets of Tokyo and learning about the different sites of worship. For non- cyclist in our group, 4 hours was a bit long… maybe cut it down to 3 hours + include a lite meal towards the end. Were we all pretty hungry when we finished. Our guide was super knowledgeable.
Thank you for your great comments. It would be so appreciated. I also apologize the tour was bit too long for you. I will try to accomodate the contents for future customers. I hope you had a nice time during staying in Japan. See you again some time. Takeshi
Very knowledgeable guide, you literally take the back streets to get to a good few landmarks. Would absolutely recommend! Bonus points if you can do this on the first few days of your Tokyo visit!
Thank you for your wonderful review! I was so happy to cycle with you, too. I hope you enjoyed my bike tour. See you again some time! Takeshi
Great way to see the city and get some understanding of Tokyo. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable.
Thank you for your great comments. It is so appreciated. I was so happy to cycle with you, too. I hope you and your friends had a nice time during my tour. See you again some time! Takeshi

Thank you for your great comments. It is so appreciated. I am so happy to hear you had a nice time during my tour. I hope you enjoy travel in Japan! Takeshi
Nicola was a very knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed all of the stops along the tour and used the bikes afterwards to continue to explore.
Thank you for your great comments! It is so appreciated. I was so happy to cycle with you, too. Enjoy your satay in Japan! Takeshi
It was a nice trip. We cycled about 15 km and we saw quite a lot. Not so much all ‘must sees’, but that also made it surprising and fun. The very friendly guide also took a lot of pictures.
Thank you for your nice comments! It is so appreciated. I hope you have nice days during your travel. Takeshi
