Yuki knows! Follow him! - Yuki San did an incredible tour! We biked on the country area and the road less traveled. He explained the culture of Kameoka, its local history and went to visit 7 shrines/temples to get the blessings from their deities. He was also very good in answering my questions and made the tour a very pleasant experience. It didnt felt tiring and was an easy rise bike all the way. He went above and beyond in helping me get my goushin for the temples. Its a tour I would highly recommend to escape the hustle of the cities and really see the country side of japan.

Awesome bike tour. Fun and educational. Relaxing but also active. - This was for real the best tour I've ever had. It was just the two of us and we really got to see both kyoto in a different way. Yuki has a great perspnality and loves to intro people to his hometown. Such a welcoming and practical guide. His English is near native. Super friendly and fu. To be around. We even decided to do a second tour with him the next day. Defienetly the best way to get to know kyoto!!

Must do tour when visiting kyoto - Yuki is born and raised in the area and speaks fluent English. The tour was the perfect blend of exercise, nature and seeing historic temples where there are ZERO crowds. If you want to explore the Japanese country side and get out in nature, this is a must do.

Chill cycling in Kyoto Eco-friendly guided tour with a full sense of majestic nature - This was my first visit to Kameoka. I am involved in the management of this tour with this tour guide Yuki. This time I experienced a full-fledged cycling tour of Kameoka! I came as a guest and it was a great tour. You can feel the magnificence of "Kyoto in the forest" and the agricultural culture of Kyoto, and you can experience Kyoto which is not a tourist destination in the morning feeling relaxed. If you are visiting from overseas, I recommend you to try something like this Kameoka tour instead of Kyoto full of crowds! The concept of visiting the temples of Kameoka's "Seven Lucky Gods" was also very good. You'll come across a lot of narrow roads that can't be passed by car! It was easy to drive as there were almost no people or cars passing through, so I could experience the tour with peace of mind!
