What impressed me was the view point overlooking the town and the pleasant cycling. I fell in love with this town because I saw the story of the town connected with it.^^
I'd love to join another season!

I highly recommend this bicycling tour. It was definitely the highlight of our trip! The town we rode through is absolutely beautiful, and Jonah was an excellent guide. His English is perfect, and we learned so much from him. He gave information and told stories about the different places and landmarks along the way, and it was a great way to learn more about Japanese culture outside the touristy areas. We met several people from the community along the tour, and they were all so interesting and fun to get to know. The lunch in the middle was amazing as well! The chef put so much love into her food, and she was able to accommodate my food allergies. It was the best meal we had in Japan! Thanks so much, Jonah, for an amazing day!
