The weather was wonderful, warm, and with little wind, making it very enjoyable!

My 4-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter skillfully used their children's paddles and paddled along!

We started paddling from the Chitose River, so we were able to see fish, and the kids were very satisfied.

Ido, who taught us how to paddle and guided us, was very kind, took many photos, and was great with the kids. Plus, he recommended a delicious pork bowl restaurant! It was really tasty♡

The only thing I found disappointing was that the weather was too nice, and the glare on the lake's surface was strong, so we couldn't see the scenery reflected on the water. Still, since we were in a clear kayak, I could see well through the bottom, even though the reflections and waves made it hard to see outside!

If I have the chance again, I hope to see the scenery as if floating in the sky!

(For reference, I think the kids were fine in long-sleeved, long-pants rash guards. I put a windbreaker over them. Their sleeves and pants got a little wet. The kids felt cold after getting back to shore, so I think it would have been better to bring their shoes and outerwear in waterproof bags.)

天気に恵まれ暖かく、風も少なく、とても楽しめました!

4歳の息子と6歳の娘も子供用のパドルを上手に使い、漕いでいました!

千歳川から漕ぎ始めたので、魚も見れて子供達は大満足でした。

漕ぎ方を教えてくれ、案内してくれるイドさんは、とても親切で、たくさん写真も撮ってくれ、子供の扱いも上手でした。
それに、美味しい豚丼のお店も教えてくれました!とっても美味しかったです♡

私が唯一残念だったのは、天気が良すぎて湖面の照り返しが強く、湖面に景色が映る感じではなかったことです。
それでもクリアカヤックだったので、カヤックの外だと光の反射や波でよく見えない湖の中も、股の間からよく見えて楽しめました!

また、機会があれば、空に浮いているかのような景色が見れればと思います!

(参考までに、服装は子供も長袖長ズボンのラッシュガードにして問題なかったと思います。子供にはその上にウィンドブレーカーを着せました。

袖やズボンが少し濡れた程度でした。子供たちは、岸に上がってから寒がったので、靴と羽織り物は防水袋(防水袋)に入れて持って行けばよかったかも、と思います。
5/14 最高気温21℃くらい)

Thank you for participating! This is Yamamoto, who was in charge. Thanks to the kids for their hard work in paddling until the end, we were able to visit various points. In the summer, you can enjoy the water without worrying about the cold, so please join us again. We’re looking forward to it!

ご参加ありがとうございました!担当させていただいた山本です

Horseback Riding Experience for Riders of All Levels near Sapporo
Beautiful Scenery and Wonderful Friendly Instructors
Activity Date: 2016/02/01 | Posted on: 2016/02/04

The entire experience is in Japanese Language only so you will need to have some command of Japanese Language to fully understand what is going on. This was my second experience and I am able to comprehend Japanese. Unless you already have prior riding experience, this may not be suitable for first timer foreigner language visitors.
I love Risa, our instructor. She has a bubbly and friendly personality. She guides really well and the entire experience was memorable. They will help to take pictures. For safety reasons, they will not bring your camera along but you can bring your handphones and request them to stop at any point to help you with photo taking.
You will be provided with the leather coat, boots, gloves and cowboy hat, again for safety reasons.
The winter view was awesome and we got to experience jogging on the horses for a couple of rounds. I opted for the 80 minutes package and I highly recommend this experience.

Lift Off with a Powered Paragliding Adventure in Furano
Unusual way to enjoy Furano!
Activity Date: 2015/07/21 | Posted on: 2015/08/18

Awesome! Great fly & wonderful view!
Recommended for those who haven't try/don't dare to try skydiving, it's a much milder version.
For those who 've tried skydiving, join too. It's wonderful to enjoy the sky, enjoy the freedom, and enjoy this mini adrenaline rush activity.

The instructor speaks very little English (almost none). His assistant speaks better than him (not very fluent tho), but I have no problem understanding their sign/body language.
Suggest that they can print a simple "English instruction" with some photos on it. They can give it to the participants, while demonstrating in person to the locals. It would be easier for the foreigners tho.

Anyhow, I had a great time!
