Enjoy a half-day cycling tour through Shizuoka’s peaceful countryside with views of Mt. Fuji, the ocean, and historic villages. Ride safely with a local English-speaking guide and explore scenic spots and cultural landmarks along the way.
This half-day bike tour is a great way to enjoy the quiet countryside of Shizuoka with amazing views of Mt. Fuji. You’ll ride about 30 kilometers on peaceful roads, passing by the deep blue Suruga Bay, the calm Abe River, and the local Mochimune Fishing Port. There, you can see where locals catch tiny fish called shirasu, and take in a special Mt. Fuji view from a seaside bridge. With a kind English-speaking guide and safe paths, this tour is relaxing and easy to join.
Along the way, you’ll also visit old towns that still hold the charm of Japan’s past. You’ll ride on part of the old Tokaido Road, which once connected Tokyo and Kyoto. Stop at Mariko-shuku, where a restaurant from 1596 still serves food, and explore Utsunoya Village with its stone streets, mud-built bakery from the 1500s, and Japan’s first toll tunnel, built in the Meiji era.
