We were three generations in our 80's, 50's, and 20's. It was a great tour that all generations could enjoy. My mother, who is in her 80s, was taken very carefully on the kayak and was able to enjoy the tour to the fullest, and she is very happy that it was a great memory for her. The guide, Ei-chan, was very interesting and we had a great time with everyone who joined us. It was a great experience for me to enjoy the blue water and to enter the precious cave!
