Kochi Mysterious Gorges of Niyodo River&Crystal Kayak

Kochi
9 hours

The Niyodo River has been evaluated as the cleanest river in Japan eight times for these nine years. Especially, three gorges are the top spots to enjoy the purity of the river. They are Nakatsu Gorge, Yasui Gorge and Nikobuchi. But, I’m sorry to say that you are supposed to choose only one of them, because they are located far from each other. After you enjoy a hike through one gorge, you can experience one of the best river activities, “Crystal Kayak”.

Izakaya and Sake!

Maki is an engaging guide; friendly and interesting. She took us to a local Izakaya, smoothing the way to explore various food and drink choices. As a sommelier, she was well placed to advise and instruct on Sake which we knew very little about. After our delicious dinner we went on to a beer hall which had many offerings. We concluded the evening with a walk in the beautiful and peaceful gardens atop Ginza 6. Lovely evening Maki. Thank you

Maki K.

Thank you for your wonderful review. The two of you are best friends who can speak their minds to each other, and it was a really fun night, as I felt like I was included in your group. Thank you very much.

Amazing introduction to Japan's culture and Tokyo tour

Yumi was lovely. She organised our day trip according to our wishes and made us feel very welcome. It was very hot so made perfect suggestions where to first so we don’t caught up in the sun too much. She told us a bit about Shinto and Buddhism religion to make us understand more when visiting shrines and temples. We also learnt a great deal about Shogunate period. We can’t recommend Yumi enough!

Yumi I.

Eliza san, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I think you and your husband enjoyed the journey in Japan and have many wonderful memories. Japan has many kinds of landscape according to seasons, so please come back again to Japan in the future. I also enjoyed the tour with you and learned many things by chatting with you . Thank you so much.

Most memorable tour of Kyoto

Kazuhiko was lovely. He organised our day trip according to our demands and made us feel very welcome. He also took the time to tell us about the history of Japan and its traditions. It was extremely hot in Kyoto but yet we still manage to visit a lot of places. We can’t recommend Kazu enough.

Kazuhiko G.

Thank you for your kind review. I apologize for making you walk in the very hot weather and for not being able to provide you with sufficient guidance due to the heat. Did you get rid of your fatigue? I hope this tour will be a memorable experience for you in Japan. Please come back to Japan again. Thank you!!
