    I joined this tour with my 5 year old son to experience the great outdoors. We were very happy to see ferns that we had never seen before, a nanafushi even in winter, and an insect that may have served as a model for the character Kamaji in "Spirited Away. My son was so happy to see mushrooms that he had only seen in books that he wanted to come back again in a different season. The guide was kind and knowledgeable, and his explanation of the plants was fascinating. Thank you very much.

    I was traveling alone in the off-season, so I desperately searched for a tour I could join and found Slow Guide Amami. The guide was very attentive, the conversation was fun, the atmosphere was great, and I was happy to have my photos and videos taken. (I was really grateful to Slow Guide Amami because I had been having trouble with other tour companies that suddenly cancelled the tour without any notice even though my application had been completed, etc.) The next day, we were really grateful for your help with the mangrove canoe tour. It was a precious and wonderful experience to be able to luxuriate in the vast mangroves during the first morning when there were no people around! It was a precious and wonderful experience! It was a great memory of my time in Amami.

    I really appreciated the hotel pick up and drop off. We enjoyed the tour very much, and the driver guided us along the way. We canoed in the morning and walked in the afternoon. My friend had a hard time paddling the canoe, but he said it was fun because he waited for me even though I was going slowly. On the other hand, I was worried about walking because I have a chronic foot disease, but we walked slowly with the guide and it was no problem at all. My friend said it was cold and it was difficult to choose the right clothes even though it was December. It was difficult to choose the clothes to wear, but they guided us in advance. For lunch, we were guided to a lunch at a hotel, and the chicken rice we had there was delicious.

    I participated in this tour alone at the end of the year. I was picked up and dropped off at my lodgings, and the stories I heard in the car were very enjoyable and valuable. The mangrove canoeing took me through narrow tunnels in the green jungle that only a guide could know, and the trekking in Kanasakubaru gave me a deeper understanding of the nature of Amami Oshima thanks to the knowledgeable and experienced guide's explanations. Thank you very much for a very fulfilling one-day tour!

    We had a great time walking while learning more about the nature of Amami. On the way, we found eggs and tadpoles of Amami tip-nosed frogs in a small puddle, and a nanafushi, which made us feel closer to the rich nature. Thank you very much for the guide, Mr. Tomioka.
