Why Choose Us?
Here are some of the things we think make HappyRaft the best rafting experience in Japan.
1. Friendly, helpful staff.
Our staff are all licensed, and trained to an international level. We have english and Japanese speakers on every trip.
2. The mighty Yoshino River.
The Koboke section is a world-class one-day rafting tour. With Big powerful rapids interspersed with crystal-clear pools and a great playspot.
3. Fresh-cooked bagels for lunch.
Fresh out of the oven , baked daily, the Happy Bagel picnic lunch on the side of the river is a rafters delight. We cut and butter the fresh bagels, and you fill them up with the meats and salads you like. Find a great spot to eat your lunch and soak up the best view on the river looking up the Koboke canyon.
4. Great Spring/Fall and Weekday Prices.
We have great specials off-peak starting from ¥5500 for Half-day Rafting Trips.
¥100 00 for One-day trips with the awesome lunch!
5. The Best Guest-house in Japan.
And maybe the cheapest… From ¥3000 for rafters. Its got a great kitchen with everything you need. Also barbeques and charcoal available (and popular).
Private rooms for groups and singles.
best season!
