Fabulous ebike trip- really takes the weight off your feet. Lovely guide Matheus showed us all around the park, the deer, various shrines temples and knife shop. E bikes were really easy to use, and we explored much further than had we been on foot! Highly recommend!

4 hour ebike tour around Nara was the perfect late morning/ early afternoon activity to see all the sights. Christoph was a friendly and knowledgeable guide and I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone looking to see the temple, deer and check out some Japanese knives.

What a great way to see Nara! We had the ability to see more of the park that would have been hard to do by walking. It was a nice mix of guided tour, where we learned about the history, and free time to explore the sights on our own. I highly recommend it!

I had such a great time on this bike tour of Nara Park! The entire experience was well-organized, fun, and full of beautiful sights. Our guide was incredibly kind and knowledgeable—sharing fascinating facts about the history, culture, and local landmarks in a way that was easy to understand and engaging.
Biking through the park was such a peaceful and enjoyable way to see the area. We got to explore hidden paths, visit ancient temples, and of course, meet the famous deer! The pace was just right, and our guide made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the tour.
I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nara. It’s a great way to experience the natural beauty and rich history of the area with someone who clearly loves what they do. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
