On the first day, we will pitch our tents next to the Noh stage, a symbol of Sado's culture, and enjoy a BBQ of Sado ingredients, Japan's first World Agricultural Heritage site, and a bonfire under the stars. On the second day, we will take a private car to the terraced rice paddies overlooking the sea in search of ibis, which can only be seen on this island. Sweat it out in a rice planting experience taught directly by a farmer, and then dust off your rice balls of Sado rice, an experience that is sure to be delicious.
