Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • The Toyonaga course, a full 4km long, is packed with rapids and is one of Japan's best half-day rafting courses. This tour is extremely popular with adult groups of rafting beginners, as well as families with children in junior high school and above! One river attraction after another! Experience authentic whitewater rafting. Everyone on the boat works together as a team, paddling to overcome the rapids. A sense of accomplishment for a team made up of people of all ages and genders who happen to be together at the same time. Let's all enjoy the rapids of the Yoshino River!
  • We will go down 10 rapids!
  • During the roughly two and a half hour journey, you'll encounter four large rapids, and a total of ten smaller rapids. Other activities include diving from a four-meter-high rock (optional participation) and relaxing body rafting in calmer waters, making this a packed half-day experience!
  • Let's have fun and forget about time!
  • The goal is to land at the Happy Raft base. There is no need to travel back, so it's smooth.
  • Highly experienced! All guides are RAJ River Guide certified!
  • All guides are RAJ (Japan Rafting Association) certified. In addition, some guides are also certified with the world-class NZRA (New Zealand Rafting Association) Grade 4.5 and Grade 4.5 Senior (one rank higher than the regular qualification). Happy Raft is unique in that many of our guides have experience traveling around the world in search of rapids!

Purchase Notice

Questions about booking:

  • Question 1: If you have minors, please let us know their grade level.
  • Question 2: If you are a minor and cannot come with your guardian on the day, please let us know in advance as we will need your guardian to sign the participation consent form.

Regarding cancellation of the event:

  • We will operate unless there is a heavy rain or flood warning or the water level exceeds the upper limit set by safety standards. If a typhoon is approaching, Happy Raft will contact customers 2-3 days in advance to monitor the typhoon's progress. If Happy Raft cancels the tour due to a warning or bad weather, we will refund the full tour fee by bank transfer.

Please note the following when participating in this course:

  • *The course may be changed or canceled depending on weather, river water level, and other conditions. The tour will only be canceled in the event of heavy rain that triggers a heavy rain warning, such as a major typhoon, or if the water level exceeds a certain level. The tour will not be canceled due to normal rain. Depending on the water level, the family tour may be canceled. If there is a high possibility of cancellation due to weather such as a typhoon, we will contact you as early as 2-3 days in advance. We will contact you at the latest the day before the tour, but please feel free to contact us if you would like to know the situation. We may also cancel the tour on the day of the tour. Thank you for your understanding. *Please note that we do not allow people under the influence of alcohol or with a hangover to participate in the tour due to the high risk of this danger. In such cases, a 100% cancellation fee will be charged.

Other important points:

  • *Please be sure to contact us in advance if you have minors with you. If you show up on the day without contacting us, you may not be able to participate in the tour. Also, if you are a minor and cannot bring a parent or guardian with you on the day, we will need a parent's signature on the participation agreement, so please let us know in advance. *We will take special care to ensure that children are not in any danger, but we also ask that accompanying parents follow the guide's instructions to ensure their children do not get injured. ■There are no shower facilities, but bathing is available with an outdoor hose. *If you have children not participating in the tour, you can wait in the Happy Raft reception area. You can relax on the sofa, splash around in the hose, or take a guided tour of nearby trekking courses (1-2 hour courses). [Boat Information] The boat can accommodate a maximum of 7 people plus 1 guide. If you book with a group smaller than 7, you may be sharing the boat with other guests. *Private boat rentals are available (additional fees apply). Private rentals may not be available depending on the reservation situation. If you would like to rent a boat exclusively, please contact us as soon as possible. [About Tour Photos] During the tour, your guide will take photos and videos with a waterproof digital camera. If there are many boats, we may also take photos from land using a telephoto camera. All photo and video data is available for purchase for 1,000 yen for a half-day tour and 2,000 yen for a full-day tour. You can download the photos to your smartphone or computer. (If downloading is not possible, we will provide you with a DVD or other format.) *We do not recommend bringing your own waterproof camera or cell phone to the river, as they are prone to loss or damage and can result in injury. There is no property damage insurance, and you are responsible for all actions. If you bring a GoPro, we have several helmets with attachments available, but please understand that there are limited numbers and we may not be able to find the right size. (Helmets cannot be reserved for you.) +*+*+*+*++*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+* ★The tour meeting time may change depending on weather and river conditions.
