Taxi tours

by Nichola1

This seems to be a new thing - there are these little bike taxis that will take you around. The guys look like spunky bike couriers from home which is better than the normal taxi drivers here. I saw it said something about Y300 on the side, but I`m not sure how long or how far that was for. It would be a cool way to see the city (since the driver has to pedal you aren`t going to be going too fast!).They seem to be waiting on the north side of the Dotonbori bridge (just by Kirin Plaza)
