    We spent a whole day with a very kind guide (Mr. Sato) from Amanico! He took care of our interests, stamina, time, weather, etc. and attended to us in a flexible and wonderful manner. We were very satisfied with the shochu factory tour because we were picked up and dropped off at the factory, where we could enjoy tasting shochu to our heart's content! We also had a very enjoyable time in the car as we learned a lot about the charms of Amami that we could not find in the guidebooks.

    I really enjoyed both the Kinsaku primeval forest walk and the mangrove canoeing. So I really give it a perfect score, but there was one disappointment. It was a defective hull of the canoe. I was very happy with both canoeing and mangrove canoeing. The canoe I was in was missing the stoppers on the front legs, even though there are rails on both sides of the front legs for the stoppers. My wife's and other people's canoes had stoppers. As a result, when I paddled the oars, I could not stand on my feet, and every time I paddled, my body sank down, and I repeatedly tried to stand up and then sink back down, so I had to operate the oars with the power of my upper body. When I returned to the hotel after the tour, I noticed that my upper arms and back were very tense. I checked with the guide and he said, "This kind of canoeing is also available," but I thought it might be a little hard for elderly people and women. I think we need to be a little more considerate....
