What you can expect

Koka is a quiet, peaceful and beautiful rural town, and the best to go with a bike.
You will feel the atmosphere of Ninja while riding through the heartland of Ninja.
Why don't you make a one-day trip from Kyoto to Ninja's hometown Koka City?

Koka City is home of Ninja.There is no tour to visit real Ninja places guided by a Ninja/local Samurai descendant who can speak English.
You can experience a very unique tour from this.

Meet up at JR Konan station in Koka City, Shiga prefecture at 9:35am.
Ride electric bikes to go.

Koka Ninja House
—The only existing real Ninja House with many tricks inside such as revolving door, hidden second floor, escape tunnel, too heavy sliding door, etc. You can throw Shuriken there if you want.
