So fantastic!! - It was such lovely country and tranquil, until we came to the rapids! Beautiful!! It's challenging but very doable going up/down the falls. Ryota is a wealth of info and love for his job and mountains. Nono is so helpful and lovely. Both guides were fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyed the time which went super fast. Absolutely give it a go!!!

I had a great time climbing the Oku-Yuki shower❤️ - It was a lot of fun. We went by car, but the destination was easy to find, there was a parking lot, shower climbing equipment was provided, the guide was kind and supported us well, we were able to take photos and videos, and after the tour we were able to enjoy the hot springs with the bathing ticket we were given. It was a very satisfying tour with everything we could ask for. It's great that adults can enjoy it too. The Minauchi River was beautiful and pleasant.

Emotional - We were able to do activities that we normally can't do in the wonderful, unexplored area of Oku-Yuki, just an hour from the city! The friendly and kind instructors took us to various spots where we could enjoy activities that we couldn't do anywhere else! We'll definitely go again!!

Highly recommended even for first timers! Enjoy nature to the fullest! - I was worried about what I needed to prepare for my first experience, but all I needed was a swimsuit and a towel. Socks, shoes, gloves, wetsuit, rash guard (long sleeves), and helmet were all provided. On the way back, I was able to relax even more by taking a dip in the hot springs. The instructors, both male and female, were friendly, accurate, and reassuring. I was able to experience both the stillness of floating in the water like yoga meditation and the thrill of diving in the middle of nature! I recommend it!

Shower climbing is the best! - It was my first time trying shower climbing and it was awesome.
The weather was great, I was able to enjoy nature to the fullest, and thanks to my fun friends and kind instructor, I was able to enjoy this extraordinary experience to the fullest.
It was my first time, but I think once you try it you'll be hooked.
