A new bike tour of Japan offers a fresh perspective on a country often wrongly dismissed as a dense mass of cars and concrete. The self-guided adventure launched by InsideJapan Tours offers visitors a refreshingly different perspective on some of Japan’s best-known cultural icons. It also gives travellers access to areas not easily reached by car or train.
As well as guided cycling around Tokyo and Kyoto, the bike tour includes rural Shikoku Island. With rides of between 40km and 60km a day, highlights include a challenging ascent of Mount Tsurugi, a night at a traditional inn (ryokan), a swim in the scenic Iya River, a ride along the coast and a visit to Hiroshima, plus rides on the famous Bullet Train.
