Circumference of Yakushima Island

I was grateful that they picked me up near my accommodation and took me to the airport on the way back. I could easily take a bus around Yakushima, visit the main tourist spots, and the guide provided continuous commentary throughout the trip! Plus, there was a flying fish tempura lunch included! It was great to easily see the ancient cedar trees at Yakusugi Land and to experience the nature of Yakushima! I even got to see Yakushima deer and Yakushima monkeys!宿近くでピックアップしてくれて、帰りは、空港まで送っていただき、ありがたかったです
バスに乗って楽々屋久島を一周できる、主な観光地も行ける、しかもガイドさんがずっーとガイドしてくださる!
しかも飛び魚唐揚げランチ付き!
ヤクスギランドも、簡単に紀元杉が見られるのも、楽々屋久島の自然に触れられるのもよかった!屋久鹿&屋久猿にも会えましたよ!

屋久島観光、レンタカーと迷ったけどツアーにして大正解でした!

特に西部林道や紀元杉のあたりは、運転に慣れていないとかなりタフな道だと思います。

The cost performance was good. Although the weather was bad, they were able to adapt flexibly. At Yakusugi Land, even the 30-minute course can be difficult under poor weather conditions, so I think it's better for elderly people not to push themselves (one person dropped out midway).コスパ良かったです、天気悪かったのですが、臨機応変に対応して貰えました。ヤクスギランドは、30分コースでも天候悪いと足元が悪く、年配の方は無理されない方が良いと思いました(1名途中離脱)

The guide was skilled both in driving and storytelling, and their explanations were easy to understand. Since it was my first time in Yakushima, I learned a lot from them, and it was very educational.

This tour offers the best cost-performance for a one-day sightseeing trip, including hotel pick-up and lunch, making it better than renting a car! Especially on the way to the Seibu Forest Road and Yakusugi Land, there are extremely narrow roads where only one car can barely fit, so it's better to avoid it unless you're very confident in your driving skills. I was impressed by the driver's technique. The guide was also knowledgeable and a great speaker, so the day flew by!1日観光で、ホテル送迎、昼付きなので、レンタカー借りるよりコスパ最高のツアーです!特に、西部林道やヤクスギランドに向かう道は、車一台がやっとの超狭い道あるので、よほど運転に自信のある人以外はやめたほうが良いです。ドライバーさんのテクニックには脱帽でした。ガイドさんも、知識豊富で話し上手な方でしたので、1日があっという間でした!

The weather was a mix of rain and sunshine, but I was able to see many yakuzaru (Japanese macaques) and yakushika (Japanese deer) on the Western Forest Road. At Inakahama, there were traces of sea turtle nesting, allowing me to experience the island's charm beyond just the Yakusugi (Japanese cedar).雨が降ったりやんだりの天候でしたが、西部林道でヤクザルやヤクシカをたくさん見れたり、いなか浜ではウミガメの産卵跡があったり、屋久杉だけじゃない島の魅力に触れられました。

We set off and circled Yakushima in a clockwise direction. The tour covers all the essential spots, so I recommend it for beginners to Yakushima. Around the western forest road, the road is narrow, just enough for one car to pass. I think this area could be challenging for those considering a rental car. From here, you can encounter wild deer and monkeys. After passing through, we reached Inakahama, where the beautiful sandy beach and the crashing waves created a stunning view.

For lunch, we stopped in Miyanoura. The fried flying fish was exquisite. The bus then traveled through Anbo, passing the airport, and headed to Yakusugi Land and the Jomon Sugi. The guide accompanied us while we explored Yakusugi Land, providing insights. It was moving to be able to touch the Jomon Sugi. After descending the mountain, we got off the bus, and a taxi took us to our hotel. It was very accommodating. You can enjoy the experience fully even without a rental car.

Additionally, the guide took photos at scenic spots and showed great consideration for the participants. The stories were interesting, so I never got bored for a minute. Thank you very much!

I don't have the physical strength, energy, or stamina to just go see Jomon Sugi, but this tour was more than enough for me. Even though it was a small bus, navigating the narrow one-lane roads of the western forest trail was quite thrilling. It was challenging to pass by oncoming vehicles. If you’re not confident in your driving, it would be very difficult.

I had heard that many women from Yakushima have a straightforward personality, and it was refreshing to hear them speak without using any cushion phrases (like "I apologize for the trouble..." or "I'm sorry, but..."). They would simply state, "I can't do it!" or "It doesn't exist!" This direct way of speaking inspired me to incorporate it into my daily life as well (laughs).

I used this service the day after trekking to Jomon Sugi as a way to rest. I recommend it because you can enjoy seeing various sights by bus.

One point of dissatisfaction is that as a solo traveler, I had to pay for two seats due to the pricing policy. However, I noticed that there were several people who were not traveling alone but were using multiple seats because there were empty seats available. I would like to see this policy enforced more strictly.
縄文杉トレッキングした次の日に休養がてら利用しました。バスで色々見られて楽しめるのでおすすめです。
不満点として1人だと2座席分な為に割り増し料金ですが空席があるために1人で来てないのに席を複数使ってる方が何人かいましたのでそこは徹底してもらいたい。

I had a wonderful time. The female driver was lovely, and I felt safe during the ride. The guide was also great and kind, providing a clear and informative tour. I'm really glad I participated in this bus tour. Traveling alone as a woman can be a bit anxiety-inducing, but I really wanted to do some sightseeing, and it turned out to be the perfect choice.とても良い時間を過ごさせていただきました。女性の運転手さんで、素敵な方、安心して乗車することができました。
ガイドさんも素敵で親切、よくわかるガイドをしてくださいました。このバスツアーに参加できて、本当に良かったです。
女性一人旅…何かと不安…でもガッツリ観光がしたい…大正解でした。
