    To be honest, I thought the three-island tour would be hard, but the staff was well organized and the trip went smoothly. However, if you are not confident in your physical strength, the second half of the tour may be a little tough. The scenery was outstanding.

    I was attracted by the nature of Iriomote Island. I was healed by the elegance of the buffalo cart, and SUP gave me a good balance of moderate physical exercise and not too much activity. The pictures taken by the photographer were also wonderful.
