SUP downriver tour at Niyodo river

DONT miss this activity.

Totally fantastic morning on the water. Absolutely beautiful. The guide is super friendly, speaks great English, and is very accommodating. He takes a ton of photos for you as well, so no need to worry about bringing your phone onto the water. He'll pick you up from the nearby train station if you aren't planning on having a car. Was great for beginners (like me) but I think you can do more advanced stuff if you ask. He also has sunscreen if you need it (you will). Lastly, he recommended a great spot for lunch and an onsen after that, and both were great as well.

We loved this experience!

River SUPing with Rangi is such a unique experience in Japan… beautiful scenery, turquoise waters, friendly and knowledgeable guide. One of our big highlights of a month long trip in Japan. (We recommend you get in touch with him to customize the trip and stay at his great accommodation).

Paddle Boarding - Niyodo River,Kochi, Japan

An amazing 3 hr adventure down the river. Weather was fantastic. The owner and guide , Rangi, was very welcoming and knowledgeable and has a lifetime of experience of water sports . He was totally beginner friendly and taught us basic skills very quickly. We were given all equipment and at the end of the trip ,facilities for a shower . Photos and videos of the trip were also included. Highly recommended.

Superb Experience

We had a superb day with Rangi on the Nyodo river yesterday. We are a family of four and my daughter (who’s 12) was quite nervous but our host stayed with her, reassuring her all the way. His instructions were faultless, delivered in a friendly, relaxed manner. He took wonderful pictures and videos to remind us of what was certainly the best experience of our two-week holiday in Japan. I cannot recommend this activity highly enough. If you’re visiting Kochi…do it!

Family SUP

We had an excellent family trip on the river with clear water and fish swimming under us. Our daughter of 5 loved jumping off Dadys board and making dad work abit harder than everyone else! We will definately come again for the fun trip and recommend it for any family.. Thanks Sugoi sports team!
