Whether you’re cruising along the waterfront, sailing past the canals or exploring the quieter corners, the guide will keep you informed every wheel-turn of the way. You can choose from Japanese or English-speaking guides at no extra cost and learn all there is to know about Tokyo’s biggest neighbour.
Important: Riders require a driving license that is valid in Japan (i.e. an International Drivers Permit or a domestic Japan license.) Participants will also need to wear sensible shoes and ensure they use a rucksack or strap bag that doesn’t require holding. If participants cancel the tour within two days of the date, a 50% fee will be retained, and 100% if you cancel the day before. If the event is cancelled by the operator, no percentage will be taken.
