Starting at the Hida-Hagiwara station, we will directly head for a cluster of ten small Maze Riverside hamlets, each with a population of approximately 50 to 300 people, together collectively known as the “Maze Village”, which are regarded as some of the most beautiful authentic set of rural villages in Japan. 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. Same as the full day tour, we need to go up the mountain road but please do not worry. We use Panasonic’s cool electric bikes. If you are capable of a normal bike, it is also easy to handle this e-bike. Getting away from tourist crowds, you will fully enjoy the authentic countryside of Japan in this private e-bike tour. If you visit Hida Takayama area to see the beauty of nature in the rural Japan, this tour must be the best option for you.

Dai was a great quide - it was wonderful to get out into the countryside and explore an area of Japan that others may not venture to. We would definitely recomment this experience to others.

This is a lovely part of the world and makes for a very nice trip. The countryside is beautiful and the guide speaks good English and is patient and helpful. The main reason for rating the trip 3 stars is the pricing is very expensive. At over 200 Australian dollars per person for 3 hours (and you need a train trip to get there from Takayama), it’s over priced. If it were closer to $100 I would thoroughly re on end it for a lovely day away from crowds in the mountains and rivers

We saw a beautiful part of Japan off the beaten track. The electric bicycles were easy to ride and even an out-of-shape person like me was able to climb hills like a pro. The guide was informative and friendly, and he spoke good English. A unique experience.

The bikes are esy to use and the tour leader met us on time. It is worth knowing in advance that Hida is quite far out of Takayama and there is a significant train journey both ways, although Dai did advise of how to get there after we booked, The route we rode was along a path beside the main highways, there were some good views but I had imagined a more rural experience.

We were met quickly after arrival at the train station. He took us to a garage where the bikes are stored. The bikes looked like being built primarily for male riders whereas we have 2 middle aged ladies. There was not a discussion about the suggested route before we left. Also he tended to ride on ahead of the group. It turned out he was planning for us to ride over to the next valley. We indicated that would be too difficult based on our experience. He quickly changed the plan and we had a super ride on quiet roads and paths, in wooded areas and farming country. The electric element helped greatly. The scenery is spectacular and we got many great photos. We returned to the meeting point on time. We had planned to get the train back straight away but it turned out there was a local fete with music, dancing and stalls- so we ended up spending 2 hours watching the local event before getting the train back to Takayama. Overall a good day but better planning of the trip before we started would have improved the overall experience.
