今回、知床の原生林のツアーと、知床五湖ツアーに参加しました。高齢の母を連れての参加でしたが、ペース配分などの気配りをしていただきました。参加者の方々も皆さん優しい方で、本当に楽しい時間を過ごしました。 ガイドのケケさん、加藤さん、わかりやすい優しいガイドで、ありがとうございました。 次もまた参加したいです。 スノーシューや、流氷、ナイトツアーなど豊富なラインナップのようで、また訪れたい知床。私たち親子にとってかけがえのない地となりました。感謝しています。 双眼鏡のレンタル良かったです!!

Recommended for those who are confident in their physical strength, this course runs through the Kushiro Wetlands, starting from Lake Toro and leisurely descending down the wide, calm river to Iwahoki Sluice while feeling the breeze blowing through the wetlands. Basically, you won't get wet, so it's okay if you come in clothes that are suitable for the climate and easy to move in. For those who are short on time, we recommend the short course from Hosooka Station to Iwahogi Water Gate. *This is a long course.
当日予約は私だけだったため貸し切りツアーになりました。ガイドさんはドレッドヘアーのお兄さん。湿原の成り立ち、動物や植物のことを沢山 親切に教えてくれました。鷲とは出会えませんでしたが丹頂鶴とは出会えました。もちろん鹿も。中間地点でトイレ休憩あります。今度はもっともっと上流から乗ってみたいと思いました。
