Kyoto Gion & Fushimi E-Bike Tour with Hotel Transfer
Overview
Eastern Kyoto is the most tourist-dense area, and is also known as hell. However, that is only the famous spots. Just 500m away, there are quiet, historical paths. Unlike the "commercial" Kyoto where 99% of the people gather, the real history of Kyoto remains there.
The only tool to access it is an E-Bike.
Of course, we will visit the famous spots. But the real value of this tour is to experience with all five senses the beautiful roads that many foreigners don't know about, but really want to see.
The tour includes hotel pick-up and drop-off by car, so you can ride only the most enjoyable roads.
