This is a private rural e-bike tour with local lunch at the Maze Village and the Hagiwara Town in the Hida region. Because it has no businesses specifically catering to tourists, the area is largely unknown and overlooked in the main guidebooks, though it’s close to the tourist towns like Takayama or Gero. Please do not worry about uphills because our e-bike helps you a lot so that you can easily enjoy seeing the nature of Hida Mountains. In the area of the Maze Village, there are 10 small hamlets that located along the beautiful Maze River. Each has only 50-300 people and these many small communities are together referred to as the Maze Area Villages. Our friendly and knowledgeable English-speaking guide will take you to picturesque spots and offer you some local stories about history, culture and lifestyle. Seeing the tranquil views and tasting the special meal with local ingredients, you can fully enjoy the authentic rural Japan.

This bike tour was amazing! It was a great chance to get outside of the major cities of Japan and see what the countryside has to offer. Seeing Japan’s beautiful mountains and rivers via bike was the way to go. The e-bikes made it super easy to get around and up hills and make this tour doable for a lot of people. Dai is also an amazing guide! He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is having a good experience and is very knowledgeable and open to sharing Japanese culture. I’d recommend this tour to any and everyone looking to get outdoors and be in nature. It’s an experience I won’t forget.

This bike tour was a great break from the busy cities of Japan! It was a great experience getting to see the mountains and rivers of Japan via bike. Dai was very knowledgeable and really cares about sharing the Japanese culture. The e-bikes make it very easy to get around. We also had one of the best meals I’ve had while in Japan on this trip. It felt like they were cooking for family. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a different and fun way to see Japan’s countryside.

My family and I were very impressed with this trip. It was an important experience riding a bike with family and friends. On a cool day and has a beautiful view It might be far and quite difficult for me. But it was so worth doing. Once in a lifetime. Thank you guide Daisuke, you were very friendly to us.

We had a great time on the 6-hour Maze e-bike tour with Dai in early November. Our route took us through the Hida-Hagiwara town centre, then up the mountains towards Maze village, and the pedal-assist function on the Panasonic e-bikes used on this tour made the uphill portions a breeze and super fun. We really appreciated Dai’s many conversations with our small group throughout the tour, especially his candid sharing about how he moved on from busy Tokyo city life to the countryside. Tour highlights for us were: our bento lunches, thoughtfully prepared using local ingredients by one of the ladies from the village (she even handwrote a menu so that Dai could explain to us what we were having that day); getting to see and touch the crystal blue waters of the Maze River; stopping by a roadside mountain spring to refill our water bottles; seeing pockets of autumn colours on the surrounding hills and mountainsides. We would recommend this to anyone who enjoys cycling!

We had a great time on this tour and Dai was an excellent guide. After visiting all of the city hotspots, visiting Takayama and cruising through the countryside on this cycle tour was a really relaxing way to end our trip. We got to see see the contrast between the city and rural areas, and the packed lunch was one of the best we had!

We had the most wonderful time with our guide Dai, discovering the Hida mountainous countryside, local shires and enjoyed a beautiful prepared Japanese lunch. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for showing us breathtaking scenery off the tourist track with vibrant autumn colours. One of our favourite days on our honeymoon🍁

We had a great time biking the rural villages surrounding Hida with Dai. The scenery, lunch (bento box made by a friend of Dai) and exercise made for a day we will cherish for a long time. Thank you Dai and we wish you every success with your biking tours.

We had an excellent time on the ebike tour on November 1st in Hida Hagiwara and the town of Waze. Dai was an excellent guide & provide great insights on the countryside and his move from Tokyo. We learned about the origins of the Shinto temple in the village and about the Ayu fish found in the river during the summer. The lunch at the local eatery was excellent and we enjoyed the short riverside picnic as well with the Fall colors. I highly recommend this ebike tour.
