Trip Overview
Our journey from Hiroshima to Kyoto will be an unforgettable experience, allowing us to explore some of Japan’s most fascinating and historic landscapes. Starting from Hiroshima, we will go through the history of this beautiful country and soon after, we’ll cycle through the Shimanami Kaido cycling network where the famous suspension bridges are located, including the renowned Kurushima-Kaikyō Bridge, which is one of the longest suspension bridges in the world at over 4 kilometers long. We will then cross the island of Tokushima, renowned for its natural beauty, with breathtaking mountains, rivers, and fishing villages. Leaving Tokushima Island, we will then set our wheels on solid ground towards Nara, famous for being Japan’s first permanent capital, renowned for its ancient historical sites, parks, temples, and wild deer that roam freely through the streets. Finally, Kyoto awaits us for our last leg, where on bikes and in Kimono attire, we will try to spot the famous “Geishas.”
