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.

Have a nice electric bike ride with Dai very friendly guide. The weather was not there but the circuit is cool near the river.

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.

We were a family of four, including two teenage boys, and the family consensus was that this a highlight of our Japan trip. The short trip from Takayama on the train was easy and scenic, and Dai met us at the station. We hadn’t ridden e-bikes before but they were no problem, and made getting up the hills a breeze. Dai was a wonderful guide and was happy to share his experiences and insights into Japanese life and culture. We really enjoyed his company and riding through the beautiful hamlets. Highly recommended.

Dai was amazing! He was so easy to talk to and get along with - it felt like going for a bike ride with a friend. We learned a lot about the area and Japanese culture in general. The route was also well thought out. Although it was a very hot day, the cycling wasn't too difficult due to the e-bikes. We would happily do this again if we ever came back.

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

Wow!! What an absolutely spectacular day with Dai. This is definitely a highlight of our trip and a nice balance to our urban days in Tokyo and Kyoto. We are a family of four with two kids ages 12 and 14, and two adults. Between the four of us, we have very different levels of physical fitness but with the E bikes everyone was happy! The scenery is spectacular but most of all Dai was such an incredible guide and answered many of our questions about Japan. If you’re on the fence, I highly recommend you book this trip!

Our charming and knowledgeable host Dai gave us a real insight into the town and its environs. He first ensured that we were familiar with the E-bikes and their controls, then explained briefly where we were going and why. It was the first time I'd used an electric bike, but it's easy to master, and makes even fairly steep inclines a breeze! Dairy went at our pace, and we were quickly moving along the Hida River and then exploring further afield. It's a beautiful area, well worth a visit. Don't expect castles, cities and crowds; do look forward to a slower pace, lovely scenery and company as well as an insight into rural Japanese life. Thank you Dai!

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.

An excellent tour with a great host, Dai. A must do if you want to get away from the main tourist area and experience real rural Japan. Easy to use e- bikes, small group and guide made this tour a pleasure. Tip from tour guide led us to a great lunch in town at a nice little Italian- Japanese place.

I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Whether you're an avid cyclist, a Japanese culture enthusiast, or simply someone in search of beauty and authenticity outside of the traditional big touristy cities, this experience will undoubtedly surpass your expectations. The landscapes we biked through were like living paintings, each turn revealing vistas that took our breath away. From verdant rice fields that seemed to glow under the sun, to quaint villages that whispered stories of yesteryears, every scene was a testament to Japan’s natural beauty and its meticulous care for harmony. Thank you, Dai, for your hospitality and for a truly unforgettable day and adventure. Mata ne!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
