A kayak tour of the hanging flower on Iriomote Island only available to guests staying the night before! You can take photos with a professional camera for free! Waterproof bags are also included in the price during the tour. Seasonal One-Night Flower Hanging Flower Tour The tour period is from 6/20 to 7/25 (excluding 7/1 to 12 due to camping tours). Hanging flowers are widely distributed throughout the Nansei Islands, but on Iriomote Island, they are very rare because they grow in colonies along the river. At dawn in the middle of the night, we float our kayaks on the quietly flowing river and row along the river while listening to the voices of the waking ruddy kingfisher and other birds. Looking up, the starry sky shines...the morning glow of the beginning of the day shines in the eastern sky. The scent of the hanging flower reaches us as we row, and then the figure of the hanging flower floating on the river appears. Looking up at the hanging flower that has not yet fallen...the sight of it quietly falling into the river is very fantastical. On the way back, the sunrise makes us and the hanging flowers shine, and we return feeling the wonderful day. We will spend precious time with you and have a special time that can only be enjoyed on a private tour.

It's August, and it's an hour away from the scorching hot city. Just by descending from the highway into the river behind Akigawa, the last clear stream in Tokyo, you will find yourself in another world with a surprising sense of secludedness and coolness. This summer, why not try a waterfall tour and a dip in the clear stream recommended by a guide, where you can feel the overwhelming coolness with your whole body at a special valley spot in Hinode Village that you wouldn't think is in the same Tokyo? This summer, enjoy the best "summer vacation for adults" that you can only experience here! Hinode Village, a village in Tokyo that is currently a hot topic. The area where the north and south Akigawa Rivers join (where the Hinode Village Office is located) is the center of Hinode Village, so to speak, but there are many hidden spots where you can enjoy the beauty of several waterfalls and valleys just in the area not far from there. A way to enjoy the charm of Hinode Village to the fullest is to "tour around the waterfalls". It is the most luxurious way to enjoy visiting several "waterfalls" that are pleasant even if you just visit one. However, it is easier said than done. There are few buses, few parking lots, and the directions to each waterfall are complicated, so even if you just look at a map and try to get around, it can be quite difficult... So! We have planned a special tour where you can use the village's rental bicycles (electric) to go around selected waterfalls and valley spots at a good pace, accompanied by a guide who knows the charms of the village well. This is a special tour available only in the summer, guided by a guide (Jinken) who lives in Hinode Village!
