    Since it was a private tour, I was able to fully enjoy everything I wanted to do without worrying about my surroundings! We were able to fully enjoy activities in the great outdoors, such as canyoning down a waterfall and exploring a mysterious limestone cave. The guide was very friendly and flexible to our requests. We felt like VIPs and had the best memories!

    Since it was a private tour, we could enjoy Iriomote Island at our own pace! We chose SUP and snorkeling, both of which were carefully supported by the guide, so even beginners could enjoy them without worries. The free photo data was also a nice touch! It was a luxurious tour where we could monopolize the great nature without worrying about the crowds. I think this tour is perfect for a family trip or a group trip!

    It seems this is a new plan that is being held from this year! When I joined the daytime tour, the guide recommended it to me! I had never heard of a flower called "Sagaribana", so it was a very heartwarming experience for me. I will be back to reality tomorrow, but I will do my best! LOL!

    We used this tour for a family trip, and since we had a 3 and 4 year old, we discussed with them from what we could do, and on the day of the tour, we experienced canoeing. The friendly guide supported us well, so we could enjoy ourselves to the fullest without any worries. He also taught us about the plants of Iriomote Island, and we were able to enjoy Iriomote Island! We will use this tour again.

    We used this site for our college graduation trip. The guide was great, not only during the canyoning, but also along the way, he was a great conversationalist! He took a lot of funny pictures and the service was excellent. The guide was about the same age as us, so we felt like we came together. It was great to have a flippant and funny guide! Thank you very much!
