Hida Private E-Bike Tour with Premium Lunch and Farm Experience
Things to know
About the Activity
This is the premium version of 1-Day Rural E-Bike Tour in Hida. Same as the regular one, the tour concept is exploring the hidden part of Takayama by cool electric bikes to see and understand the authentic rural Japan. There are 2 key differences from the standard tour. First, it is one group only for a day. Second, lunch is Kaiseki (traditional multi-course Japanese meal) and farm experience included. You pick some fruit or vegetable with people living in the village, and the local ryokan or restaurant makes the beautiful Japanese meal with local produce. No exaggeration to say, it must be the most memorable moment of your trip in Japan. Please do not miss the opportunity! *It depend on the day whether the farm experience is offered for a small group (2-3 people). If not, we can arrange to visit a local fish farm or interact with locals as alternative.7 hours 30 minutes

UMESEKO TOUR
1-65 Oshinmachi, Takayama, Japan, 506-0851This is a private e-bike tour held at the less travelled part of Takayama, heading for the hidden valley village to see lots of scenic views and taste the authentic Japanese cuisine made with only local produce. The tour starts from JR Hida-Hagiwara station. After some instructions, you will cycle around the historical town first. You need to go up the hill to visit the beautiful valley village but do not worry about it. E-bikes we will offer you are the special machines, so easy to use and make steep hills seem flat! At some points during the tour, you will take super nice pictures in the countryside and hear a lot of local stories such as history, culture and lifestyle that you would never know without a guide. The tour highlight is lunch time combined with a farm experience. You will visit a local farm to get ingredients for your lunch, then the local ryokan magically serves the kaiseki (traditional multi-course Japanese meal), which will surpass anything else you had in Japan. Through 7.5h-28km leisurely cycling, local farm experience and the luxurious lunch, you will enjoy the authentic rural Japan to your heart's content.7 hours 30 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView LocationMeeting and Pickup
