    Thank you Amanico Guide Service for responding to our many questions. It was very helpful. The guide, it was my first time to canoe in the mangrove, but I was able to enjoy it as much as I wanted because of the lecture and support before entering the canoe. I learned about the history of Amami Oshima and learned about the amazing mangroves. It was a great experience for me to feel the power of nature that I could not believe it was in Japan. Thank you very much for the enjoyable and healing tour.

    The tour was cancelled due to a typhoon, so I asked the tour guide to pick me up from my hotel, which was far away. He also told me about the origin of the towns along the way, which helped me to get to know Amami better. She also took us to places that we had not requested, and I thought she was very kind. I highly recommend this tour to those who do not have a car and who want to know more about Amami! Thank you very much.
