Great day out! - What a wonderful day! Mayco was a great guide. She kept us moving without rushing and had a really good knowledge of Osaka and its history. The bike riding was fun and easy as mostly flat and a good pace all day. Highly recommend!

Book now - you won't regret it! - Matt was an awesome guide- super knowledgeable and friendly with a touch of greatly appreciated snark ;) The bikes were in great shape - I opted to upgrade to the ebike. Osaka is mostly flat and easily bike-able but I found the ebike super helpful with my janky knee. I highly recommend this tour on your first day in Osaka - you will see so much more of the city including off the beaten path spots than you would on a walking tour. It was a really nice place with plenty of stops to take a break and take some photos. The lunch towards the end was delicious - it was a local spot away from all of the tourists. This tour was one of the highlights of our 2 week visit to Japan.

Nice bike tour through Osaka - This tour gave us a very interesting bike ride through Osaka. We saw many things including Osaka Castle grounds, shrines and rose garden. Our group decided on soba for lunch and our guide took us to a local restaurant that we would never have found on our own. They made their own noodles on site and they were delicious. The biking through the city was intimidating at first, but the people and bikers coexist so well here, we were able to navigate it without too much difficulty. I would recommend this tour. Easier than walking, you see a lot with a lot of information from the guide. For older folks, the difficulty is mild to moderate.

A wonderful experience - This excursion on a bicycle was the highlight of my time in Osaka, I got to discover back alleys, serene environments (I did not expect that from a big city), historical places and modern ones. The pace is great.

Absolutely worth it - It was a wonderful experience with Akira! He definitely made it fun and enjoyable while making sure we are comfortable. He made sure we are hydrated on a hot summer day and gave us tips on how to combat the heat. We recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see Osaka in a nutshell while having fun going around in a bike.

Well worth it, highly recommend - Excellent day out, Matt was great, he told us lots about Japan that we didn’t know. The riding is easy. You don’t need an electric bike as everything is pretty flat. I felt completely safe throughout the day and would highly recommend for anyone wanting to see Osaka from a different angle.

Great way to see the neighborhoods of Osaka! - Touring the city with Osaka Cycle was such a fun experience, and a great way to tour the local neighborhoods and to plan what else to see in more detail later. The bikes were in good condition, the pace was very relaxed and our guide, Mayco, kept things fun the whole day. A really well-run little company.
