Mangrove Kayaking and Trekking with Outdoor Cooking in Iriomote Island

We had a fantastic private tour with Takashi. He was a super great guide. We went kayaking down a small mangrove river, then he made us lunch at great location with a fantastic view. After that we went on a small trek on a jungle path where we went swimming near a small waterfall in the jungle. Superb experience all of it.

Highly recommend this tour. Takashi is an wonderful and passionate guide. The mangroves were absolutely beautiful to explore at high tide. We had a lovely meal cooked for us by the ocean and finished the day on a short juggle trek to Kura Falls which was stunning and a great spot to have a swim to cool off. We barely saw anyone else all day. Iriomote is a hidden natural gem. Would definitely spend more time here in the future!

our tour guide was very welcoming and friendly and spoke very good English! he was almost as excited about seeing everything as we were. He took a bunch of pictures the whole day and was accommodating for dietary needs. The food was delicious as was the tea at the waterfall. Highly recommend!

The tour was simply delightful and Takeshi was a wonderful guide plus an excellent cook as the lunch was delicious!! During the tour he brought us to the best sceneries, which were pretty secret, because no one else was there! Highly recommend!!!

The locations were beautiful and we enjoyed what we did manage to do. The guide was very friendly and polite. However the tour finished at 14:00 instead of 16:00, we did not go to a farm or have a lesson in cooking as described and the kayaking finished faster than described. Told this was because there was only two of us but it does not seem fair that we are penalised because we are not a large group. It should state in the description if tour will be shorter as we are now left with nothing to do for the rest of today.
