Cycling through Japan is a great way to travel. You discover the country, meet new people, learn about Japanese culture, experience different landscapes and most all have a lot of fun. Cycling is a major part of our trips – they are cycle tours after all. We have designed them so that they are accessible to people with a reasonable level of fitness. Different trips have different riding levels and will require varying degrees of physical ability. Each itinerary has specific details on terrain, cycling conditions, daily distances and an altitude profile. Our trips are also designed to allow you the opportunities and time to appreciate the environment, scenery and culture around you, and to participate in any activities that may be on offer.
Japan Biking offers you an unforgettable cycling holiday in Japan, completely tailored to your needs.
