Onomichi Beer Bike Tour Is Coolest Way to Explore Japan
"A 16-passenger, specialty-built bike that is the only one of its kind street-legal in Japan, offering guided, pedaled group rides through eastern downtown Onomichi. The chic black-and-white vehicle with tan leather seats requires guests to pedal together as it visits lesser-known attractions, including the Edo-period entertainment district Shingai. Guests can choose from three tour options: the Past and Present tour (from ¥3,300 / about $22.50), which visits historic sites like a 1582 vinegar distillery and includes one drink and a croissant; the Beer tour (from ¥3,300 / about $22.50), which features a brewery tour and tasting plus a to-go cup for sipping while riding; and the Experience tour (from ¥1,650 / about $11), a multi-stop outing that provides the most exercise. Tours require a minimum of four people to book and should be reserved early so the operator can craft the right experience." - Stacey Leasca
