Overview

This short Tokyo ride strings together three stops in the city, all from the seat of an electric bike. The operator, bikeTKgardens, runs the tour with a guide described as a garden artisan, and the whole loop runs between 2 and 3 hours. Groups are capped at 8 travellers.

The route starts near Hitotsubashi in Chiyoda City, though the exact gathering point is not fixed. The operator sends a Google Maps link by email before the ride. From there the tour rolls into Kitanomarukoen for a stop of 40 minutes, continues to Koishikawa Korakuen Garden for an hour, and finishes with 30 minutes at Kanda Shrine. The ride ends near Takebashi Station, or the guide can bring riders to the station closest to the final garden.

Entrance fees, the e-bike and helmet, bottled water, liability insurance, and public transportation are covered. Personal injury insurance and personal expenses are not. The tour is wheelchair and pushchair accessible, service animals are allowed, and infants must sit on laps.
