Descripción completa

El borde oriental de Kyoto es donde la ciudad esta en su mejor momento y mas dispersa. Ginkaku-ji se encuentra en el extremo norte, el camino del filosofo recorre dos kilometros al sur junto a un canal bajo cerezos, y los templos y jardines estan dispuestos a distancias que hacen de caminar todo el recorrido un trabajo de un dia entero y de un tour en autobus una serie de visitas a aparcamientos.

Una bicicleta electrica resuelve la geometria. La asistencia allana las colinas al pie de la cadena de Higashiyama, las bicicletas se ajustan a ciclistas de hasta dos metros, y recorre todo el lado oriental comodamente en cuatro horas con tiempo para detenerse adecuadamente.

Ese ultimo punto es el verdadero argumento del tour. Las tarifas de entrada a los jardines estan incluidas y el guia le lleva dentro, muchos tours en bicicleta de Kyoto pasan junto a los muros famosos y fotografian la puerta. Ginkaku-ji, el pabellon de plata, nunca fue plateado; el shogun que lo construyo como villa de retiro murio antes de ejecutar el plan, y la contencion resultante es precisamente por que el jardin y su cono de arena rastrillada se consideran el logro mas fino.

El camino del filosofo lleva el nombre de Nishida Kitaro, quien lo recorria diariamente en su camino a la Universidad de Kyoto, y funciona mejor exactamente como lo usa este tour, como un hilo conductor entre templos en lugar de un destino.

Los grupos estan limitados a ocho personas. Los cascos y la bicicleta electrica estan incluidos; el almuerzo y los traslados al hotel no lo estan. El punto de encuentro es la propia base de alquiler del operador en Koyamacho, Kita-ku, localizable en mapas por su nombre.

Tour gives a fantastic geographical and historical perspective to your Kyoto visit .. while still allowing you to visit a number of must see shrines/temples. Surprisingly beautiful/peaceful streets and river cycleways to travel along (as well as some smaller urban roads/footpaths and pedestrian crossings to pick your way respectfully through whilst sharing the morning with Kyotos local residents). Ben was a highly knowledgeable and interesting guide… perhaps content was most appropriate for adults or a keen history teen! For me though it was excellent and still provided great historical and cultural content for us even after a couple of weeks touring in Japan.

Ben was a great tour guide. Knowledgeable, patient and fun to guide us around. We are a family of 4 with 12 and 14yo. They loved seeing the sights on an e-bike it made sightseeing more enjoyable for them.

This was a fabulous experience that brought our entire family joy. My 15 year old son spoke of how beautiful the journey was, my 13 year old son proclaimed the speedy bikes were very fun, my husband spoke about how knowledgeable our guide was and I appreciated the simple route and pace having rather rusty biking skills. It was a great experience for all.

Quite relaxed bike tour with a nice guide who show a lot of knowledge. I was kind if concerned about the duration first, but after 4 hours I could have gone on another 2.

The price does not cover hotel pickup and drop-off, lunch and additional temple admissions off the route. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
You can usually ride as a passenger behind a local driver, which is what most guests do and needs no licence. Driving yourself needs a licence valid in that country, and your travel insurance will normally only cover you if you hold one.
Kyoto Fun. We book with them directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can confirm your place with the operator before taking it as final.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice outside India. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or mid-to-late November for peak autumn foliage. Kyoto sits in a basin and runs hotter in summer and colder in winter than Tokyo, even at a similar latitude. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Kyoto guide.
Kyoto never built an extensive subway — just two lines (Karasuma and Tozai) — so the city bus network does most of the work, especially for Higashiyama, Kinkaku-ji and Ginkakuji. Fushimi Inari and Arashiyama are best reached by JR rail instead. See getting around Kyoto.
Three days covers the essentials well: a day for Higashiyama and Gion, a day for Arashiyama and Kinkaku-ji, and a day for Fushimi Inari plus a Nara or Uji day trip. Our 3-day Kyoto itinerary has the full route with timing.
Arrive by 6:30-7am — the shrine is open 24/7 and free, and most visitors only walk the first 20-30 minutes anyway. Past that point the crowds thin out fast. Full hike details in our Fushimi Inari guide.
Yes — it's a public path with no entrance fee and no set hours. The trade-off is that it gets shoulder-to-shoulder by mid-morning; arrive before 8am for a nearly empty walk. See the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest guide.
Kyoto restricts photography on certain private alleys in Gion after complaints about tourists chasing and blocking geiko and maiko, with fines for violators. Public streets like Hanamikoji-dori remain open, but never chase, touch or block a real geiko/maiko anywhere. Full etiquette in our Gion geisha district guide.
Yudofu (simmered tofu, best near Nanzen-ji or Arashiyama), kaiseki and shojin ryori temple cuisine, and Nishiki Market's stalls of tako tamago and fresh yuba. Uji, just south of the city, is one of Japan's top matcha-growing regions. See the Kyoto food guide.
