4/540代Posted in June 2026As a one-day package that lets you experience both the Kinzakuhara trek and mangrove canoeing, I think it offers great value for the price, especially with the included transportation and lunch. The expert commentary from the certified guide was also very informative. However, since the activities take place outdoors, it would have been perfect if they had emphasized the importance of insect repellent even more in their pre-trip instructions. Overall, it was a satisfying and fulfilling experience.

4/560代Month of posting: 2025/07I participated in the canoeing by myself, and in the Kanezakuhara Wilderness Forest I was accompanied by a couple, so there were three of us. It was my first time to ride a canoe and I was not confident in my oar operation, so I chose to ride alone with a staff member. It was low tide in the mangrove forest, but we were able to observe crabs, flying gobies, and other creatures, which was enjoyable. In the Kinsakuen primeval forest, we were able to enjoy walking along a thick forest road with many plants that looked like dinosaurs might appear, with careful explanations by the staff. I recommend both of these tours.
