Plan introduction (Only for family! Private Canoe Tour)
This tour is the perfect plan to make memories with the family, and take a canoe ride on the Bibi River that flows from Tomakomai to Chitose.
Bibi river, the venue of this tour, is only about 10 minutes by car from New Chitose Airport, and has excellent access from New Chitose Airport!
The river is very calm and it is the perfect river to go down by canoe.
In addition, you can see many wild birds and fish such as swans during the tour because of the rich nature of Hokkaido!
From late July to autumn, you can see the sockeye salmon from the top of a canoe.
It’s the only tour like this in Japan!
This tour is available for ages from 1 year old, and the price is special for families including junior high and high school students and their parents.
Dad and mom, brother and sister, grandpa and grandma, everyone is welcome to join us.
The tour starts at 6:30 am, which is the earliest time for parents and children, so if you want to do some activities in the morning, we recommend it.
There’s nothing like a morning coffee on a canoe!
This tour is especially recommended for families with children because you can go down the river by canoe along the flow of Bibi river in a relaxed manner and make more memories with your family!
