Carolann· October 30th, 2024Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Just needed more hill climbing training. Being on the older side of things I would have been better off using an e bike but find they are too bulky. I preferred the lighter non electric bikes for maneuvering.Show more

- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written April 2024
This adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm on Day 1 at Kyoto where you'll meet your tour leader and fellow travellers. You can arrive at any time during the day as there are no activities planned until this important meeting. Afterwards, head out on an evening walk before enjoying a welcome dinner. Joining point is Hotel Resol Kyoto Kawaramachi Sanjo, 59-1 Daikokucho, Sanjo-sagaru, Kawaramachi-dori, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto, JAPAN.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written April 2024
While the cycling distances may vary from 10 to 80km (6-50 miles) each day, it's important to note that the terrain of the Gifu Prefecture can be naturally hilly, and the climate can vary significantly. Most individuals with a reasonable level of fitness will enjoy the trip, but we always have a support vehicle available if you need to take a break, whether it's for an hour or a day. An e-bike option (at additional cost) is also an option on this tour. We have limited numbers of these bikes available, and they are an 'on request' basis only.
