You’ve probably seen Shibuya Crossing, but Tokyo’s backstreets tell a very different story.

On this private bike tour, you’ll explore hidden alleyways in central Tokyo and get a glimpse of everyday local life.

With your guide, you’ll wind through narrow streets, visit small mom-and-pop shops, and taste traditional Japanese foods that are hard to find in typical restaurants.

Highlights include sakuramochi, a pink mochi filled with sweet bean paste and wrapped in a salted cherry blossom leaf, from one of the first shops to sell it in the area (on Mondays, a different shop is visited).

Other favorites include takoyaki, grilled octopus dumplings, and seasonal street treats chosen by you and your host.

If you visit between late March and early April, you may cycle under cherry blossom trees, creating a truly unforgettable memory. The tour also includes off-the-beaten-path shopping streets and local markets, letting you experience Tokyo beyond the usual tourist spots.

This private tour is tailored to your interests. Your host is passionate about sharing the city’s hidden gems and giving you a fresh perspective on Tokyo’s neighborhoods, flavors, and daily life.
