Hiro is a hero! I had a fantastic day tour and this was a shore excursion from the cruise terminal in Kochi. Hiro was patient in teaching this beginner at the SUP experience. I was successful in the first exercises, and I ended up standing up on the paddleboard successfully floating through the river currents. What a blast! The one activity itself would have been perfect, but wait....there's more. We ventured out to Nakatsukeikoku Park which boasts rock formations dating bak 300 million years. Really gorgeous hike to a waterfall and "Indiana Jones" pathways. So much fun. Well lastly, we chose to get some lunch rather than bathing in the Japanese hot spring. Smart move! We went to a very local fish restaurant where the husband cooked the Bonita on a can filled with straw, charring the fish. Yum. Hiro was very responsive, and this was one fun day!
Superb Experience

We had a superb day with Rangi on the Nyodo river yesterday. We are a family of four and my daughter (who’s 12) was quite nervous but our host stayed with her, reassuring her all the way. His instructions were faultless, delivered in a friendly, relaxed manner. He took wonderful pictures and videos to remind us of what was certainly the best experience of our two-week holiday in Japan. I cannot recommend this activity highly enough. If you’re visiting Kochi…do it!
