A fun and easy way to see the city - A great way to see the city. The E-bikes made it really easy and Mayco was an excellent tour guide. Bring gloves if it's cold weather!

Great way to spend 1/2 a day - Our guide Peter was fantastic, lots of information. Its an easy cycle, just under 14km, pretty flat - the slopes up to Osaka Castle are as steep as it gets

Great Family Bike Tour - We had a fantastic half-day bike tour in Osaka with Peter. He is extremely knowledgeable about the city and shared lots of interesting history including Osaka castle and local insights along the way. Peter was also very patient and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the ride. The pace was relaxed, well organised, and a great way to see parts of Osaka we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Highly recommend this tour and Peter as a guide!

Sunny Osaka in winter, fantastic on a bike - We did the half day Cycle Osaka tour (3 hours), a Mum (60) and my son (21). I booked an e-bike for myself but didn’t need it at all and in hindsight would have preferred a regular bike. The route is largely very flat and easy, picturesque riding. It was a sunny mid-December 13 degree day but riding I got cold hands and definitely needed a puffer jacket. The Castle and Rose Garden were my favourite parts of the route. Fantastic way to explore the city on only our first full day in Japan, Maurice our guide was very informative and rode at a very leisurely pace. Thanks

Highlight of my Osaka trip - This bike tour has been the highlight of my trip to Osaka. Our guide, Matt, is hands down the best guide I've ever had in any tour. His style is the the perfect balance between interesting historical information, and light-hearted humour. He is very knowledgable and patiently answered my countless questions. I'm definitely doing the full day tour in the future when I come back to Osaka again and I'll make sure to book it with him.
