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.

  • Go river rafting in an inflatable kayak, commonly known as a Ducky! Paddle your own kayak down the Toki River, which runs through Arashiyama Town and Higashimatsuyama City in Saitama Prefecture! Enjoy the scenery, spot underwater creatures, and fully appreciate nature! Paddles are fun to use, with blades on both ends. The inflatable hull offers excellent maneuverability and portability. When deflated, it becomes smaller than a tent, making it easy to transport in a passenger car. Of course, the hull, which acts as a buoyant body, has a multi-chamber structure. If one chamber fails to provide sufficient buoyancy, the others will back it up, allowing you to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. Experienced instructors will accompany you on the tour, and the river is gentle enough for beginners, so even families and couples new to kayaking can enjoy a safe and secure journey. You'll receive lessons on how to hold the paddle, paddle, and ride the kayak. There's plenty of time to practice at the beginning, so you won't have to jump straight in. Once you're comfortable with maneuvering the kayak, you can start! The river is so gentle that you can control your kayak and get a feel for how to maneuver! Whether you paddle solo or with a partner, you'll feel a sense of accomplishment! Plus, after the tour, you can enjoy a soak in Tamagawa Onsen! Tamagawa Onsen is a retro Showa-era hot spring bathhouse, and the interior will transport you back to the Showa era! Enjoy a meal together in a nostalgic atmosphere, and choose from a wide variety of ciders and snacks. Experience the Showa era for yourself! The hot spring boasts a pH value of 10, making it one of the most alkaline simple hot springs in Japan. It's known for leaving your skin feeling so smooth you'll notice the difference immediately after stepping into the bath! After enjoying your kayak to the fullest, you can relax in the hot spring and enjoy a delicious beer! Of course, if you request transportation, we will pick you up from the nearest station. After the tour, we will also provide transportation to Tamagawa Onsen. Because transportation from Tamagawa Onsen to the nearest station is limited, please decide on a time for bathing, and we will pick you up at that time and provide transportation to the nearest station! Sherpa is easily accessible! It's 1.5 hours from Ikebukuro on the Tobu Tojo Line, and about 20 minutes from Higashimatsuyama IC on the Kanetsu Expressway. It's about 30 minutes from Nerima IC to Higashimatsuyama IC! Come and enjoy an extraordinary experience!
