Kyoto Cycle Tours with RBRJ
As far as Kyoto Cycle Tours go, RBRJ like to cycle around the edge of Kyoto rather than in the thick of it, escaping the crowds and heading into the stunning coutryside.
Tour Kyoto and beyond with RBRJ to fully embrace all that Kyoto has to offer, such as Takao and Nakagawa, on our Northern Hills tour, or visit Wazuka, one of Japan’s most beautiful villages on a Custom Tour.
Road Bike Rental Japan will provide an experienced Kansai cyclist to accompany you and lead you (and your group) on a memorable adventure.
Kyoto Cycling Tour – Discover the Stunning North Hills


For any road cyclist visiting Kyoto, the lure of the luscious green mountains that surround Kyoto will be inescapable. The backdrop to the ancient capital, pure and simple just makes for great cycling. The North Hills of Kyoto provides some of our favorite cycling around.
There are many great routes around but we’ve put this 72km route together give cyclists a chance to escape the crowded tourist spots and find a little bit of isolation on these wonderful roads and paths through rolling hills, secluded forests and small rural villages when time almost stands still.
Kyoto East Half-Day Tour


Kyoto has a certain image to first time travels that often does not align with the reality of the situation on the ground. The hotspots in Kyoto are always fantastic, but they tend toward the overcrowded. Experience the peaceful side of Kyoto and get lost in some of the older neighborhoods by venturing out on a bicycle on RBRJs East Kyoto Half day tour.
This tour is a leisurely 30km loop that takes 2 hours (even if you take plenty of photo stops). Depending on how many of the sites you would like to visit it could be extended into a day long ride. If you choose to go on a guided half day tour you will have up to four hours with an RBRJ cyclist. After that, you can adventure out for the rest of the day on your own if you’d like!
Private & Customized Kyoto Cycle Tour


Escape the Kyoto crowds and see more of Kansai in the best way. This tour can be customized for 70km+ loops from RBRJ (Kyoto) to some of the more scenic locations in Kansai and back.
Kyoto Cycle Tours Testimonials
Mayu, my guide, was fantastic! She’s a native Japanese speaker with excellent English, making the experience seamless and enjoyable. We had an absolute blast cruising along winding roads, passing towering cedar trees over 100 meters tall, and stopping for lunch at a charming local spot atop the mountain. It was an incredible adventure and the highlight of my trip to Japan!!
I will be recommending this Company / activity to anyone I know travelling to Japan. Thank you Aaron and Mayu for everything!
