Cycle Kyoto

In early 2015, we started Cycle Kyoto as a micro-business founded on friendship, cycling, and a shared love for the beautiful city of Kyoto. Eight years later, with countless memories made, many new bicycles added to our fleet, and more than 20,000 satisfied customers under our belt, Cycle Kyoto has become one of Japan's most beloved bicycle tour operators. Now entering our ninth year, we still hit the road each day, discovering interesting sights, experiences, and entertainment throughout this wonderful city where we now call home. Kyoto stands out among other destinations due to its thoughtful residents, distinctive neighborhoods, and mouthwatering cuisine—making it an ideal place to experience firsthand through pedaling along its roads. Our guided tours ensure your safety while providing informative commentary about Japan's historic capital, keeping both body and mind engaged during your journey. While visiting popular attractions should definitely be part of anyone's itinerary, relying solely on buses, trains, or taxis might prevent travelers from experiencing authentic local culture. With us at the helm, however, cyclists get access not only to famous landmarks but also hidden alleyways, scenic riverbanks, roadside snack stalls selling fresh produce, and numerous spontaneous photography sessions - making sure no detail goes unnoticed. Trust me when I say – You'll absolutely adore exploring Kyoto like this! (X)
