You can land deep in the intricate jungle and on vast tidal flats that you cannot go on group tours!・Schedule ① Meet at Roadside Station Mangrove Park ② Arrival at the canoe boarding area, preparation lecture (15 minutes) We will explain how to row and precautions. ③Canoe tour (100 minutes) Let's row a canoe and explore the mangroves!

This is a tour where you can row a canoe at both high and low tides. However, when the tide is high, the canoe travels through the channels inside the mangroves, and when the tide is low, the tidal flats appear, so they land on the tidal flats. If you have a preference, please let us know when making your reservation.・About tour safety The guide for this tour will be an instructor who has taken a kayak training program. We will provide appropriate lectures and advice to customers who are new to kayaking, and conduct tours in accordance with safety standards.・Others: This tour is not a private tour, and in some cases we may guide two groups at the same time.

Reservations are for 3 people or more, and are recommended for those who come to play with friends during spring break or summer vacation! We will meet and disperse at Naze, so it will be smooth to return to the hotel after the event! This plan was created because we wanted students coming to Amami to learn as much as possible about the creatures on the island. Amami Oshima is an island rich in biodiversity. Amami rabbits, Amami Ishikawa frogs, Amami woodcocks, etc. can only be seen in this place on earth. Most of the rare animals on Amami Oshima are nocturnal.

If you would like to have a private tour, you can choose this as an option.・Regarding consideration for animals We use lights to observe animals at night, but on our tours we use red lights, which are said to be difficult for animals to see, with the aim of reducing stress on animals. Some participants have commented that red is difficult to see, so during observation, please switch to white light only for the minimum amount of time necessary to take photos.

Amami Oshima was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site in 2021. As the reason for its registration is ``biodiversity,'' this island has many unique flora and fauna. Yuwandake is the most important place where many endemic species live. There are two routes to climb Mt. Yuwandake, but on this tour, you will walk up the wooden stairs from the 9th parking lot to the observation deck and shrine near the top. It's not a mountain trail, so it's easy to walk, and you can observe plants unique to Mt. Yuwandake along the way. (Anyone who has no problem walking or going up and down stairs in daily life can participate. The walk will take about 30 minutes each way.) On a clear day, you can see a wide view of Amami Oshima from the observation deck. However, as the name ``cloud forest'' suggests, Mt. Yuwandake has a unique environment where clouds and fog gather throughout the year, and there is a lot of rain. Therefore, if you're lucky you can see the view from the observation deck, but for me (the guide), the real view is on rainy days. We want you to enjoy this natural environment! After Mt. Yuwandake, we will stop at Materia Falls to take commemorative photos and have tea time. Date: Meet at Naze Sports Park in Amami City or pick up at hotel ↓ Transfer to Mt. Yuwandake (travel time varies depending on the pick-up location) Arrival at Mt. Yuwandake parking lot ↓ Arrive at Nature Walk Observation Deck/Shrine while observing flora and fauna ↓ Arrival at Shimoyama parking lot ↓ Transfer 15 minutes Materia Falls ↓ Arrive at hotel on the way back

An Amami Oshima certified eco-tour guide will guide you. ☆Our commitment...We are committed to providing a private tour just for you! With group tours, we have heard many people say things like, "It was awkward being with strangers," "I felt sorry for the people around me because my child was fussy," "I wanted to talk more with the guide," and "I didn't get along with the other customers, so I couldn't enjoy it." With a private tour, you can relax and enjoy the tour without having to worry about other customers. Small children, babies, grandparents, and energetic young people! Everyone can enjoy it!
