5.00We had an amazing tour with Takashi. He was a great guide! We enjoyed visiting museum and then seeing both historical and scenic sites in Uji. Our stop for lunch was delicious (vegan restaurant & gluten free). After lunch more cycling. We ended the tour with matcha drink. Fabulous day. Would highly recommend AWA-RE Inc!

5.00Takashi was an amazing guide! We did a private tour (just me and my wife) and he did an excellent job guiding us around, explaining the history, showing us the most scenic spots, and generally ensuring we had a great time. For English speakers, this tour is especially recommend as he took us through places and explained things very well. Tour started at 1000 and we finished at about 1500.
Uji by bike is the best

5.00My wife and I were in Uji for only a couple of days and wanted a way to get some exercise and see more of the city and its amazing sights. This bike tour was the perfect fit! Our tour group was small and intimate which made the stops fun. Our guide was excellent. He knew so much about the area and answered all of our questions to help us understand this beautiful city better. Highly recommend this tour for your next trip to Uji. Don’t miss it!
Fun tour with Takashi

5.00The tour with Takashi was fun and interesting. He’s an excellent tour guide and is fun to be with. The Uji Matcha Museum gave insight as to Uji’s significance in all things tea. Takashi took me to several temples and provided understanding of how Shinto and Buddhist beliefs infuse the lives of Japanese people. I was the only one on the tour which was lucky for me since I felt a bit wobbly on the bike so we could switch to walking. After we were done I wanted to try a matcha drink. Takashi took me to a lovely tea shop off the main street that I never would have found on my own.
A Highlight of our Trip

5.00If you are looking for something unique to do tour wise on your Japan Trip, then this is highly recommended. What a wonderful time it was to bike around Uji with our guide Takashi, who would inform us of all the areas we stopped at. UNESCO world heritage sights, museums, and even give insight on places to get great souvenirs and treats! It's definitely a welcomed break from walking around as well, while still being able to get a full day in!
Great bike trip in Uji!

My favourite tour in Japan!

5.00I’m coming to the end of my travels in Japan (Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto) and this was my favourite tour of the whole trip! As a big matcha fan, I was very excited to visit the famous Uji. It was so much fun riding the Brompton bike - we cycled at a relaxed pace, down quiet streets and along the river, amid the backdrop of lush green mountains. The scenery was stunning and Takashi introduced some beautiful spots (river views, temples, shrines and matcha cafe) that I would never have discovered by myself. Takashi shared lots of history about the area, and answered all my questions - especially in the Tea and Byodo-in museums where some of the exhibitions were only in Japanese. The day absolutely whizzed by and I was sad when it ended, as I was having such a wonderful time. Takashi recommended a great matcha shop for me to visit afterwards, where I bought some authentic matcha goodies. Thanks Takashi, and I hope to take another Brompton tour when I next visit Japan!
Enjoy the beauty of Uji on this slow cycling tour!

5.00This off-the-beaten path tour was delightful, even in hot summer weather! Riding along the river on shady paths, learning about tea cultivation, visiting peaceful temples and shrines (not overcrowded with visitors!) made for a wonderful way to experience Uji. Takashi was a very kind, knowledgable and patient guide, whose background in history enriched our trip! He took the time to answer all of our questions as he took us around each site- we appreciate how he shared his passion for biking and Japanese culture. I highly recommend this bike tour!
Extraordinary experience

5.00Absolute MUST-DO! An unforgettable experience with Takashi who is the kindest guide. We loved visiting the tea museum together and had such a beautiful day spent touring Uji and experiencing the magic of hidden temples and breathtaking landscape. We were there during cherry blossom season and it was marvelous. Takashi took his time to introduce us to a number of historic sites and precious viewpoints. Thank you so much, Takashi-san, you are a treasure and so is your tour.
