This is the best value and most meaningful experience if you’re really into Japanese culture. The beautiful nature of Hokkaido, the blend of the essence of warm spring and human longing to be in the nature, and the great Japanese and Indian food are all within inches reach… plus the tour guide Jun San speaks good English which helps a lot in the communication. He pick us up from the hotel and send us back safely in his spacious and clean van… the most important is the bike riding. The route is well and articulate planned, it was never boring and repetitive. We saw so much on the ride feeling and smelling the fresh sweet air and wind… it’s a wonderful experience if you’re with your family and your children… don’t miss the wonderful experience ♥️

What a great experience! We ride bikes at home so this tour sounded like so much fun. Jun picked us up from our hotel and drove us about 45 min to the onsen (the starting point) from there we rode our bikes through the woods, along a river, and then all around the town. We crossed many scenic bridges. The town Jozankei is BEAUTIFUL and there was so much to look at. We rode our bikes for almost 2 hours. We were able to stop for pictures & water many times throughout the tour. There was a lot of incline but it's not too difficult. Jun was patient when we got tired. We finished the trip with curry & over an hour at the onsen. The onsen is traditional and separated men/female. It was so relaxing and one of the most amazing experiences. Jun dropped us off afterwards. He was such a friendly & knowledgeable person. 10/10 highly recommend while in Sapporo.

I found the cycling very very poor. I looked at the pictures and thought that I'd be cycling through a woodland path following the river. In reality it was along run down roads following a river where the area around was neglected. The picturesque suspension bridge and enjoy sublime views of the river canyon below is a joke. In reality it was a bridge of a river literally metres below. The tour started at the Onsen where you got onto the bike. The bike tour is a round trip and so ended at the Onsen where you got the bike. The hot springonsen was very good and so was the meal. This doesn't warrant the huge price though.

Lovely tour. Jun was a gentleman. He tries his best to speak English and for explaining things related to the tour, he is more than adequate. Excellent mountain bikes in top condition made going up or down hill very manageable. The Curry lunch is authentic Indian, not Japanese style curry, with an enormous piece of freshly baked naan bread. The onsen at the end was a perfect way to stop the muscles stiffening up the next day. As much as I enjoyed the experience, up in the hills it was very cold 4C and this early in the season many of the preferred off-road cycling paths were still snowed in. Doing the tour in May or later would be advisable.
