I had an absolutely fantastic time white water rafting with TSC! The experience was thrilling from start to finish. The weather was perfect—hot and sunny, which made it an ideal day for water activities. We started with an exhilarating rafting adventure, navigating exciting rapids and enjoying the cool splash of the river. One of the highlights was jumping off the rocks into the water, which was a thrilling challenge and a lot of fun, even for me, who isn’t a swimmer. I also made some great new friends during the trip, and the camaraderie added to the enjoyment. At the end of the day, Keiji led us to a beautiful spot by the river where he generously shared some Japanese sake with us. It was the perfect way to wrap up an amazing adventure. I’m already looking forward to more TSC outdoor trips in the future. If you’re seeking excitement and new experiences, I highly recommend white water rafting with TSC!

It was great fun. The river, staff, and fellow participants were great. The course is perfect for entry-level rapids beginners.

I just enjoyed another amazing trip with TSC. Our guide was very helpful and he injected some real positive energy into the experience. The whitewater rafting was really just beginner level stuff but we had some fun little stops along the way. The location alone makes the trip so worthwhile. Beautiful scenery.

The rafting trip was very very cool ! Accessible to beginner but with lots of sensation, it was really pleasant. We also had the opportunity to play into the water, jump from rocks and belly slide. It was very funny. The guides were nice and I really loved this trip. Worth the money.

Joining this trip was a last minute decision and I'm so glad I did! It was an amazing way to spend my Sunday, just an hour and half outside of Tokyo. Keiji was a a great tour guide/host - friendly, accommodating and engaging. White Water Rafting at this river was a good mix of exciting and chill. The tour size was just right - small enough to get a change to talk with everyone. The lunch and sake brewery was the perfect way to end the day. I would definitely do this again and/or try their other trips :)

It was an amazing trip which started in the morning at 9 AM. We did water rafting in Okatuma for about 2 hours. The rapids were not difficult but it's a good experience for beginners. The planning of trip was great as well as its execution. The instructors werer very nice and helpful. We had a good time meeting new people.
