Combo Tour

Rafting and canyoning, you can do both! There is a combo set for those of you who love the outdoors!
If you love the outdoors and want to have fun to your heart's content in nature, the combo tour is for you.
Since you are going to Shikoku's unexplored regions, you can enjoy not only Japan's greatest rapids, of which the Shikoku Saburo Yoshino River is proud, but also the great outdoors.
Why don't you try canyoning, a popular adventure in Japan, at the same time?
Groups with children of junior high school age or older can also participate!

Combo Tour Recommendations!

Combo Tour

You can combine them as you like.

Combo tours are a great way to save money. There are three different combinations to choose from!
You can experience both Oboke short rafting and canyoning in one day. The most popular Combo 2 tour combines the No.1 and No.2 recommended tours (Oboke long rafting and canyoning) in 2 days, and the adrenaline-pumping Combo 3 tour lets you experience all 3 activities in 2 days.

Course Introduction

On the Oboke Short Rafting Tour, the main rapids are 4 big ones and 10 small ones combined. The Koboke Long Rafting Tour has 8 big rapids and 10 small ones for the main rapids. In addition to experiencing world-class full-scale whitewater rafting, there are many other events such as leisurely body rafting in calmer currents, diving from large rocks (free to join), and more! Canyoning tours include waterfall dives with ropes, natural water slides on monolithic rocks, swimming in emerald green waterfall pools, and river trekking on your own through huge rock tunnels and beautiful moss carpets.

A special package you can't experience anywhere else!

Full-scale canyoning, one of the few in Japan, and rafting down Japan's largest rapids. You can also enjoy all-you-can-eat HappyRaft's famous homemade bagel sandwiches in between the tours. This is a great package plan.
The tour comes with one lunch time (two for Combo 3). After you've eaten a lot and rested your stomach and body a bit, your energy charge is complete! Let's start the second half of the tour☆!
It is possible to split the Combo 1 tour into two days. In that case, please let us know in advance whether you would like to have lunch on the first day or the second day.

I'm coming from far away and I don't know if I should go on a day trip or stay overnight.

I recommend staying here!
The inn is a renovated old house in the mountains, where you can spend time in nature that is completely different from your daily life.
After rafting, you can have a barbecue at the guesthouse and have a beer and a Kanpai!
The next day after a day of fun and drinking, wake up to the sound of birds chirping, take a walk around the inn, try the trekking course, or play in the nearby river.
You can meditate or read in the great outdoors. If you have come all this way, rafting is not the only thing you should do. Please enjoy the surrounding wilderness as well!
HappyRaft's guesthouse can be booked together with the tour.
Of course you can stay the day before the tour!
