About us

We are Kyoto ECO Trip, a bicycle rental and tour operator with two shops located in the heart of Kyoto, Japan. Our mission is to share the joy of cycling through this beautiful, historic city. Exploring Kyoto by bike allows you to discover hidden gems that most tourists overlook. We hope our tours show you a side of the city that simply can’t be seen from a subway, bus, or taxi.

Five main reasons people choose our tours:

1. Guided by born-and-raised locals (Kyotoites).
2. Electric pedal-assist bikes to help you cruise around the city smoothly.
3. Carefully selected routes curated by experienced staff from Kyoto’s largest bike rental shop.
4. Flexible booking: Reservations and cancellations accepted until 5:00 PM the day before.
5. Same-day cancellations receive a 50% refund.

Our tours follow routes meticulously designed by the experienced staff at Kyoto’s largest bicycle rental company, which serves around 30,000 customers a year. We look forward to helping you experience the authentic charm and local vibes of Kyoto!
