Japan

Kyoto is so much more than its temples. On this 7-day Brompton tour, we take you through three very different sides of this ancient region, places most visitors never get to see. We start in the rolling green hills of Tea of Kyoto, where Wazuka's quiet tea fields stretch as far as the eye can see. Then we weave through the ancient cedar forests of Forest of Kyoto, on roads that feel wonderfully remote and unhurried. We finish at the Sea of Kyoto, pedalling along the stunning Miyazu Bay coastline, a stretch of coastline that is as local as it gets. Every evening, we gather over kaiseki dinners and other local restaurants, the kind of warm, intimate meals you only find when you venture off the tourist trail. This is slow travel at its finest. No crowds, no commercialised hotspots. Just 250km of beautiful roads, great company, and a Japan that very few people get to experience. We have mapped out flat river paths and paved streets that are perfect for the Brompton bicycle; however, it is helpful to practice slow-speed handling in Singapore to prepare for the narrow lanes on this journey. With friendly leaders, hotel stays, and full support throughout, all you need to do is unfold your Brompton and enjoy the ride. Join us in November 2026, we await your confirmation.
