Masaki Takahashi(Representative)

After enjoying an exciting rafting trip on the Tokachi River, which has an abundant amount of water even during the drought season in midsummer, return to the base for a yakiniku lunch! Since it's outdoors, you don't have to worry about making a lot of smoke. Enjoy grilling and sizzling delicious food. The set includes yakiniku (Yezo venison, lamb Jingisukan, etc.), rice balls, vegetables (for grilling), and tea. Please feel free to bring other drinks with you.

  • Summer in Hokkaido is an adventure

    The other day, I had the opportunity to try rafting with a friend at TOM. The beautiful Tokachi River, with water that is crystal clear all the way to the bottom, is the perfect location for a riverboat trip in early summer. I was fascinated by everything - the rough waves, the wind blowing across the calm water, the soothing bird calls heard from the surrounding trees, and the fish that occasionally jumped out of the water. And the guides, who were extremely familiar with the conditions of the river, showed great control with great sincerity, and the humorous attractions provided the best entertainment, which I truly enjoyed. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
  • It's the best!

    〇It was our first time rafting as a couple, and we were very excited. 〇We are very, very satisfied with everything! Our guide, Dai-chan, is the best!! The first time, we all worked together to do normal rafting, but there were rocks, waves, branches, and in the rough parts, we were told to "go in!" and so on, and we had a lot of fun! The second time... We went down the river and surfed right away! Thanks to Dai-chan's hard work, we had a lot of fun! We got on the shore and started picking "Gyoja garlic" for the first time, and we were absorbed in it! We did waterfall training at a small waterfall! We used a paddle to enjoy the powerful waterfall training! I wonder if my heart was a little purer? When we jumped off the rocks, I remembered that I couldn't swim after jumping, but Dai-chan quickly pulled me with his paddle and pulled me up into the boat! This is also a fond memory! There were lots of fun things to do, such as floating around! After the event, we all enjoyed watching the video while enjoying some hot drinks! With the yakiniku plan, we were able to slowly eat on one grill per group. The venison was surprisingly delicious! The portions were generous, and the staff were very considerate, so we were very satisfied! They also taught us very carefully how to put on and take off our dry suits, and the explanation before getting on the boat was easy to understand, so overall we were able to participate with peace of mind. We came from Sapporo, so it's a bit far, but... if we participate again, we'll do it with Tom! It was still a little cold (the water was cold too...), so we'd like to experience it in the summer! ! We're looking forward to it, as the water level in the summer is said to be the same! We had our dog with us (left in the car), but when we asked them to "park in the shade" and "bring asthma medicine with us," they lent us a life jacket with pockets, and we're very grateful for their thoughtfulness and encouragement in every way. Thank you for the wonderful memories! !   (This review has been machine translated)
  • First time rafting

    I participated in rafting for the first time with a colleague from work! I was excited, but when we arrived, the kind staff helped us and the flow was smooth. We enjoyed the natural scenery and the flow of the river! We enjoyed the dynamic flow of nature, and the kind staff tried hard to entertain us, and the staff almost fell into the river on the way ^_^ I didn't know rafting could be so much fun! I was very satisfied with jumping into the river and enjoying the natural flow of the river! There was a safety lecture, so I was able to participate with peace of mind! Also, the staff was so kind that I wish I could meet them! The yakiniku was so delicious, and I would love everyone to try the venison! They gave us so much, and I can't say anything other than I was very, very satisfied. I would definitely recommend everyone to try it at least once! (This review has been machine translated)
