Reviews
one of the highlights of my trip to Hokkaido. nature tour as its best. the 2 staff were awesome. from eagles flying over our heads to Salmons swimming and floating underneath. it is a 10/10 for our family.
The river water is clear and you can see the bottom. The guide is friendly and humorous. It's a good experience. Unfortunately, the weather is a bit hot. There is no snow on the trees, but it won't be too cold.
Guide was Kiysoe. A tough ride for him as the raft was unusually full that day. He jumped into the water a couple of times so that we avoided the low hanging tree branches. Saw deer, ducks, eagles and dead salmon bodies along the stream.
The weather was very good that day, but it was still very cold on the water. At first, I went to the wrong gathering place and couldn't find it. I was in a panic and didn't know how to contact the receptionist. Fortunately, the person who arrived at the location was still there, so I successfully completed the trip.
A very special experience. The water of the Chitose River is calm and clear, and salmon carcasses can be seen underneath.
