ANA Blue Base 見学ツアー　各回15名＜東京・大田区＞

Is ANA's training center a theme park for airplane lovers?! ANAの訓練センターは飛行機好きのテーマパーク？！

Reviewed by: やっばりANAが好き

The ANA Blue Base tour I participated in felt like a theme park for airplane enthusiasts (is it a serious training facility for people working at ANA?).

We were able to observe the training facilities for ground staff, cabin attendants, cargo staff, mechanics, and pilots through glass, and there were displays introducing each job. There were plenty of trivia, such as the differences between the uniforms of ground staff and cabin attendants, and the clever ways mechanics keep track of their tools. I learned that the maintenance manual number does not start from No. 1; when I asked why, I was told that No. 1 is reserved for the helicopter manual. I felt a sense of awe knowing that ANA started as a company with two helicopters.

That day, I saw peach cabin attendants seriously training with a mock-up, ANA cabin attendants desperately performing CPR during a lifesaving training session, and pilots undergoing intense simulator training where the machines shook violently, showcasing their high awareness of safety.

At the end of the tour, we enjoyed a fun corner with photo opportunities and inspiring videos, making it a delightful experience until the very end.

Next time, I definitely want to try the ground staff experience and the simulator experience.

To everyone who organized this tour and to those who read this humble writing, good luck!

　今回参加した、ANAブルーベースの見学ツアーは飛行機好きにとってのテーマパークみたいでした（ANAで働く人たちのための真面目な研修施設なのですか）。
　グランドスタッフ、CA、貨物スタッフ、整備士、パイロットの研修施設をガラス越しに見学でき、また各職種のお仕事紹介の展示がありました。グランドスタッフとCAの制服のちがいとか、整備士の工具を無くさない工夫とか、トリビアもいっぱいでした。整備士のもつ整備マニュアルのNo.が1から始まっていないので、理由をきいたらNo.1からはヘリコプターのマニュアルとのこと。ANAはヘリコプター2機から始まった会社ならではだと思い畏敬の念を覚えました。
　その日はpeachのCAさんがモックアップで真剣に研修をしている所、ANAのCAさんの救命講習で心臓マッサージを必死にやっている姿、パイロットのシミュレーターでは機械が激しく揺れるほどの操縦訓練をしており、安全に対する意識の高さも見ることができました。
　ツアーの最後にお楽しみコーナー？で写真撮影や感動的な映像を拝見して、最後まで楽しませていただきました。
　次は、ぜひグランドスタッフの体験とシミュレータの体験をしたいと思いました。

　今回のツアーを期間していただいたみなさん、また、この拙い文章を読んでいただいたみなさんにgood luck

I think the small group tour was a good response to COVID-19. It was great to learn about the efforts and training of ANA staff through the tour.

It was a fun tour that made me want to see and know more. I would like to participate in this tour again in the future.

少人数での見学ツアーは、コロナ対応として良かったと思います。

This tour provides a great explanation of the various training activities from active cabin crew members, and it's clear that they are making efforts to improve their skills every day. I definitely want to participate again. Next time, I would like to go at an earlier time. Since it was a later tour, there wasn't much training happening.

現役のCAさんの説明で各種業務の訓練内容を教えてくれ、日々スキルアップのために努力しているのが良く分かるツアーです。また是非とも参加したいです。

I want to ride a plane. 飛行機乗りたい。

Reviewed by: おかっぱ

I really appreciate being able to tour the actual training facility for just 1,000 yen. I realized how difficult it is to become a pilot and how high the awareness of safety is—it's more stringent than I imagined. I've always thought everyone looked so cool, and I have great respect for them. Although photography is not allowed in the viewing area, it's nice that they have prepared some great spots for photos. One thing to note is that souvenirs cannot be purchased with cash. I was also able to stop by Anamori Inari Shrine, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, making it a great day.

実際の訓練施設を千円で見学出来るなんて、本当ありがとうございます。
機長になるのがとても大変な事だとか、安全への意識が想像以上に高くて厳しいものだとか、実感出来ました。
みなさんいつもカッコいーなんてみてましたが、尊敬です。
見学エリアは撮影出来ませんが、映えスポットを用意してくれてるところも良いですね。
注意点としては、お土産は現金不可です。
こちらに来るついでに以前から行きたかった穴守稲荷神社にも寄ることが出来て、良い一日になりました。

Reviewed by: ジャスミン

It took about 5 minutes to arrive from the nearest station along a flat path. There were lockers with locks at the entrance, allowing us to store our bags and explore freely. Since there were only five groups for the tour, it felt like a small group experience where we could take our time. Photography was not allowed inside the training facility, so there was a locker to store smartphones during the tour, which we locked with a four-digit code. At the simulation area with the pilots, one of the pilots waved at us, and the kids were thrilled. In the photo-taking area, because of the small group size, we were able to take plenty of pictures. Finally, in the souvenir area, shopping was smooth with credit card or QR code payments. We were able to enter an area that is usually not accessible, and both adults and children returned very satisfied.

最寄り駅からは平坦な道で5分くらいで到着しました。
入り口に鍵つきロッカーがあり、荷物を預けられるので身軽な状況で見学できました。
見学は5組だったので、少人数でたっぷり見学できた印象です。
訓練施設内の撮影は不可だったので、見学途中でスマホを預けるロッカーがあり、4桁の数字でロックしました。
パイロットの方のシュミレーションをされる所で、パイロットの方が手を振ってくれて、こどもは喜んでました。
写真撮影可能エリアでは、少人数の見学ということもあり、存分に写真を撮ることができました。
最後におみやげエリアで買い物はクレジットカードか、QRコード決済でスムーズに買い物できました。
訓練施設という普段みることができないエリアに入ることができて、大人もこどもも大満足で帰ってきました。

The current staff member (flight attendant) provided a very detailed and helpful explanation, including their past experiences, which was extremely informative. Additionally, I found ANA's corporate spirit to be very resonant, and I felt a bit envious to be able to work in such a workplace. The only disappointment was that I couldn't observe the actual training, but aside from that, I was very satisfied. If there is another opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much.

　現役職員(客室乗務員)のナビゲーターさんが、ご自分のこれまでの経験を含め、懇切丁寧に説明いただき、大変参考になりました。
　また、ANAの社内精神も、とても共鳴できるもので、こんな職場で働けて羨ましいと少し嫉妬してしまいました。
　残念だったのは、実際の訓練を拝見できなかったことで、それ以外は大満足でした。
　また、機会があったら、是非参加したいと思います。

I was so excited to finally go on the Blue Base Tour that I had wanted to attend for a long time. As soon as I entered Blue Base, I was grateful for the kind cabin attendants who answered my questions and assisted me. Unfortunately, we couldn't take photos during the tour, but I was moved to see the pilot simulator I had seen on TV actually in operation. The captain and co-pilot waved to us after finishing with the simulator, and I became even more of a fan of ANA because of their warm hospitality! Starting next year, my daughter will also become an ANA employee, and I hope she can work hard to become a part of this wonderful ANA team and be someone who can inspire others. Thank you for the enjoyable tour this time!

ずーっと行きたかったブルーベースツアーがやっと行く事が出来ワクワクしていました。
ブルーベースに入った途端優しいCAの方に色々聞いて対応して頂き感謝しております。
中でのツアーは残念ながら写真は撮れませんが、テレビで見たパイロットのシュミレーターが実際に動いていて感動しました。シュミレーターを終えた機長と副操縦士の方が私達に手を振ってくれたりと温かなANAの社員の心遣いに益々ファンになりました！

Thank you very much!!! ありがとうございました！！！

Reviewed by: ☆☆☆

We spent two nights and three days on Yakushima with my sister and mother for our first visit! On the second day, we went trekking to Jomon Sugi, and on the third day, we were taken to Shiratani Unsuikyo! Both days were sunny, and our guides were truly wonderful people. My sister and mother felt more than just tired; we all thought, "I'm so glad we came!!" It was a very satisfying two days. They took many photos for us and shared recommendations and stories about Yakushima that you can't find in guidebooks! I had heard that the experience can vary greatly depending on the guide, but it's no exaggeration to say that our first trip to Yakushima became an unforgettable memory thanks to our guides!!! Thank you so much!!! We will definitely come back!!!

2泊３日で姉妹、母で初屋久島！！２日目に縄文杉トレッキング、３日目に白谷雲水峡に連れてっていただきました！！両日とも晴れ、またガイドさんが本当におふたりとも素敵な方で妹、母ともに疲労感以上に「来てよかったね〜！！」と大満足な2日間でした。写真をたくさん撮っていただいたり屋久島のおすすめスポットやお話などガイドブックだけでは拾えない情報までたくさん教えていただきました！！ガイドさんによって楽しめるかが全然変わってくるとは聞いていましたが、初めての屋久島旅行が最高な思い出になったのはガイドさんのおかげと言っても過言ではありません！！！本当にありがとうございました！！！絶対またいきます！！！

I usually don't exercise and wasn't confident in my physical fitness, so I honestly participated with some anxiety about whether I could really enjoy it. However, thanks to the guide, it became a very memorable trekking experience. Along the way, I enjoyed beautiful scenery, and the guide took some wonderful photos and played games with us, allowing us to have fun the entire time (though my legs felt like sticks from lack of exercise...).

At first, I was hesitant about whether to request a guide, but I think if I hadn't had one, I would have given up along the way.

Thank you for a fun and valuable time.

日頃運動をしておらず、体力に自信がなかったので、正直ちゃんと楽しめるか不安な状況で参加したのですが、ガイドさんのお陰でとても思い出に残るトレッキングになりました。道中は美しい景色を楽しめた他、とても素敵な写真を撮影してくださったり、ゲームをしてくださったりと、終始楽しむことができました（運動不足で足は棒のようになりましたが…）。
最初は、ガイドさんをお願いするかも迷っていたのですが、恐らくガイドさんがいなかったら、途中で心が折れてたと思います。

The photo time and the time allocation were just right. 写真タイムも時間配分もちょうどよかった

Reviewed by: いつみ

My friends warned me that if I wasn't confident in my physical stamina, I should consider an overnight stay in the mountains instead of a day trip. Feeling a bit nervous, I decided to challenge myself with the day trip.

Once we started, I was overtaken by those who came later, and since I was in a group with women who took longer photo breaks, we progressed at a leisurely pace overall. In the end, I wasn't out of breath and could walk while chatting at a comfortable speed.

Everyone in the group was able to take photos at each spot (there was no need for only those in the front to take pictures while those in the back had to stop before the spot), making photo time a nice break.

Aside from the compatibility with the guide, the group's dynamics also matter. With a larger group, explanations while walking are hardly audible to those in the back, so I think it would be better to request a dedicated guide if possible. However, walking with people I met for the first time also allowed us to share a sense of accomplishment, which I think is a great aspect of travel encounters.

友人からは、体力に自信がなければ、日帰りではなく山中泊も検討すべきと脅され緊張しつつも日帰りにチャレンジささました。
スタートすると後から来る方に追い抜かされ、写真タイムが長めの女性たちと同じグループだったこともあり、全体的にゆっくりと進みました。
結果的には息が上がって喋れないという事はなく、会話しながら歩けるくらいの程よいスピードでした。
各スポットもグループ全員が写真を撮ることができ（前の方だけ撮って、後ろの人はスポット手前で撮らないと行けないなどなく）、写真タイムが程よい休憩になりました。
ガイドさんとの相性とは別に、グループの相性もあること、人数が多いと、歩きながらの説明は後列にはほぼ聞こえないことから、出来れば専属ガイドをお願いした方がよいかと思います。
ただ、初めましての方と一緒に歩くのも、達成感を共有できて、旅の出会いとしてよいとも思います。

It was great to be able to tour the training facility and feel the work firsthand. I thought it was amazing to see the flight simulator in action. If they could have played some videos during the downtime, it would have been even more exciting. Since it was a special occasion, I wish they could have played "Another Sky" at the entrance—it turned out to be a wonderful day that renewed my longing for the sky.

訓練施設を見学できて仕事が肌感覚で感じられて良かったです。フライトシミュレータが動いていたわのが見れてスゴいなと思いました。訓練がない時は映像を少し流してもらうともっと興奮したかも。折角なのでエントランスでは思い切りアナザスカイを流してもらえればなぁ～空への憧れを新たにした素敵な1日になりました。

Especially the way we spent time on the long trolley path (with games and quizzes) was skillful, making the difficulty feel much less intense—truly a testament to the guide's abilities. I'm really glad I took this tour!

I mainly just watched the panel explanations from a glass-enclosed corridor. I couldn't hear any voices or the atmosphere of the training. The sense of realism didn't come through just from the atmosphere of the training. The merchandise was also better at the factory tour, which was disappointing. The initial luggage locker and boarding gate raised my expectations, but the final situation was also lacking in explanation, and the rules regarding camera use were only explained after it had started.

主にパネルの説明に訓練をガラス張りの通路から眺めるだけ。訓練の雰囲気等の声も聞こえず。訓練の雰囲気だけで、臨場感が伝わらなかった。グッズも工場見学の方が品揃えは良くて残念。最初の荷物預けロッカーと搭乗ゲートは良く期待を持たされたが、一番最後のシチュエーションも説明不足でカメラの使用の可否も始まってから説明だった。

Trekking to Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi. 太鼓岩と縄文杉のトレッキング

Reviewed by: やくちゃん

I participated in a course that takes you from Taiko Rock to Jomon Sugi in one day! I'm glad I was able to visit both spots. However, the guide's pace was very fast, and I struggled to keep up. I couldn't enjoy the scenery and ended up looking down the whole time. The guide's pace was so quick that even tying my shoelaces or stopping briefly to look at the view made me lose sight of the group. There were many conversations about it being the fifth consecutive workday and wanting to catch the bus back at a certain time, which made it feel like everyone was just eager to get back quickly. I had imagined a trekking experience where I could enjoy nature, but it turned out to be a very exhausting trek, which was quite disappointing.

太鼓岩から縄文杉を1日で回るコースに参加しました！2つのスポットを回れてよかったです。しかし、ガイドさんのペースがとても早く、着いて行くのに必死でした。景色を堪能できず最後まで下ばかりを向いて終わってしまいました。ガイドさんのペースは靴紐を結んでいたり、少し止まって景色を見るだけでも見失ってしまうほど早かったです。始めの時点で今日で5連勤目だとか、帰りのバスは何時のには乗りたいといった会話が多く、自分が早く帰ることに必死でした。
自然を堪能しながらのトレッキングを想像していましたが、ただただ疲れ果てたトレッキングになってしまったのがとても残念です。

ANA Blue Base 見学ツアー　各回15名＜東京・大田区＞

The staff members are very friendly! スタッフの皆さんがとてもフレンドリーです！

Reviewed by: のりだぁ～

It was great to be able to talk closely with the staff from the reception. The guide was a current cabin attendant, and I was able to discuss questions I had about flying, which was very nice. The explanations about the work in each department were easy to understand, and I realized the vast amount of manuals one must go through to become a cabin attendant, as well as the years of training required to become a pilot. It was a much more educational experience than a typical factory tour! The tour was well organized, and the 90 minutes felt very short. There were places to take photos, and I took many pictures, even having the cabin attendant take some for me.

Last month I visited the ground staff, and this month I visited the training facility. I feel a deeper connection to ANA and appreciate their commitment to safety and security. I will continue to support the blue team.

With the travel support program starting this month, I believe there will be more opportunities to fly domestically, and I will board with gratitude for the work of all the staff. Thank you for a wonderful time!

受付からスタッフの皆さんと親しくお話し出来て案内役が現役のCAさんで日頃飛行機搭乗時に疑問に思っていた事などお話し出来て大変良かったです。各部門のお仕事内容の案内も分かりやすくCAさんになるまでのマニュアルの膨大さやパイロットになるまでの養成経過年数なども伺えて大変さを痛感しました。企業工場見学などとは比べ物にならないくらい大変勉強になりました！見学工程も工夫されていて 90分間が大変短く感じました。写真も撮れる所で一杯撮ってCAさんにもシャッター押して頂きました
先月はグランドスタッフ今月は訓練施設
ANAさんに対しより一層の親しみと安全安心に対する取り組みこれからも青組応援します。
今月旅行支援も始まり期間中は、国内移動で搭乗機会も増えると思いますが、スタッフの皆様のお仕事に感謝の気持ちを持って搭乗します。
楽しい一時を過ごせてありがとうございました

Behind the scenes 舞台裏

Reviewed by: taka

I participated in the tour starting at 4 PM. Although it was in the evening, I was able to see the training scenes of the ground staff, cabin attendants, and pilots.

It was a great tour where I could see behind the scenes that I usually don't get to experience.

16時からのツアーに参加しました。
当日は夕方ではありましたがGS、CA、パイロットの訓練風景を見ることができました。

普段目にすることのない裏側を見学できるいいツアーでした。

縄文杉日帰りトレッキングツアー　屋久島で唯一環境省のエコツーリズム研修を受講認定済み by 屋久島の輪

The guide was amazing! It was a tireless trekking experience! 大当たりのガイドさん‼︎ 疲れ知らずのトレッキングでした♪

Reviewed by: やまがたより

We were blessed with good weather and were able to see the slightly misty Jomon Sugi. I participated alone and was quite anxious about whether I could make it to the top based on the experiences I heard. I usually don't exercise much, only going hiking once a year. I prepared my stamina with an hour of running for a month beforehand.

There were four of us: one female student and two other women. The guide kept us engaged with quizzes and explanations about the spots, which helped us focus less on the walking, so it felt like we arrived much quicker than I expected! (The quizzes were difficult, and my brain was tired.)

The guide took a lot of photos, using wonderful angles and techniques, and thanks to that, we were able to capture some great shots with the trees. Honestly, watching other guides, I thought, "We really hit the jackpot." So, I believe it depends on luck. Each guide must have their own unique qualities!

It’s truly impressive how the guides can keep talking while carrying heavy loads! For lunch, we were treated to pork miso soup, which was so delicious that it could be said the guide fee was worth it just for that!

As mentioned in the reviews, it was indeed at a fast pace, but thanks to that, we didn’t have to wait for the restroom, could take our time for photos at Jomon Sugi, and boarded the return bus without waiting. If you push yourself, you will definitely get your money's worth!

I also think the number of participants, their stamina differences, and personalities were just right this time. (Most of the quizzes were answered by the excellent members.)

I had heard of Jomon Sugi, but it still felt far away (≡ε≡；). I wished I could get closer to truly appreciate its size. However, the guide mentioned that even they rarely get to touch it, so I guess it can’t be helped (tears). Therefore, the most moving part was at the place of the deity, Okotojin.

I debated whether to rent trekking poles, but I think not many people were using them. It seemed more practical to use my hands for a lot of four-legged walking, so they might actually be a hindrance. Gloves were much more useful.

I usually wear high-cut trekking shoes, but this time I rented mid-cut ones in Yakushima, which made me anxious. However, since the Jomon Sugi trek has many trolley paths, it seems that high-cuts can cause blisters due to the edges. I realized that it’s best to learn from those who know the mountain well and adjust accordingly.

天気にも恵まれ少し霧掛かった縄文杉を見る事ができました。
1人参加で体験談を聞いた限り、ちゃんと登り切れるかかなり不安で挑みました。
普段運動はせず、年に1回山登りをする程度。
1ヶ月前から1時間のランニングで体力の準備はしました。
女子学生さん1人と、女性2人組との4人メンバでした。
ガイドさんは終始、クイズを出したり、スポットの説明をしてくださり、歩くことに集中しすぎず進む事ができたので、思っていたよりもあっという間に着いちゃったなと言う印象でした！(※クイズは難しくて頭は疲れました)
写真もいっぱい撮ってくださって、しかも素敵なアングルや撮影技術を駆使して撮ってくださり、お陰で木霊も出て来てくれて一緒に写真を撮る事が出来ました(*´︶`*)♡
正直、自分達以外のガイドを見てると、「自分達は大当たりだったんだな」と思いました。なのでやはりそこは運次第だと思います。きっとそれぞれのガイドさんにそれぞれの持ち味があるんだと思います！
でもあんなにずっと喋り続けながら重い荷物を持って歩けるガイドさん達は本当にすごいです！
ランチでは豚汁をご馳走してもらいました！この為のガイド料と言っても過言でないぐらい美味しかったです！
口コミにあるように確かにハイペースではありましたが、お陰でトイレは並ばずに入れたし、縄文杉のところでゆっくり写真は撮れたし、帰りのバスも待つ事なく乗れたし。頑張ればちゃんとお釣りが来ます！
あとはツアーメンバーの参加人数や体力差やキャラクターも今回は丁度良かったんだろうなと思いました。(クイズはほとんど優秀なメンバーさん達に答えてもらいました)

縄文杉は知ってはいましたが、やっぱり遠かったぁ(≡ε≡；)
もっと近くに行って大きさを実感したかったなぁと思っちゃいます。
でもガイドさんでも触れる事は滅多にないとの事なので、仕方がないんだろうなー(涙
なので、1番の感動は乙事主様のところでしたね！

ストックをレンタルした方がいいか悩みましたが、使ってる人はあまりいなかったと思います。それよりも手を使って四足歩行になる事が多いので、逆に邪魔かな。グローブの方が重宝しました。

トレッキングシューズはいつもハイカットを履いているのですが、今回は屋久島でレンタルしたところミドルカットが来て不安になりました。でも縄文杉トレッキングはトロッコ道が多いのでむしろハイカットだと縁で靴擦れを起こしてしまう人がいるそうです。やはりその山を知り尽くしている人に教えてもらって合わせるのが良いんだなと思いました。

I really enjoyed the comfortable storytelling from the active flight attendants and the valuable experiences unique to the field. It was also nice to feel as if I were on an airplane. The exhibits were precious and all very interesting. I hope to show them to my nieces and nephews as a reference for their future.

現役CAさんの心地よい語りや、現場ならではの貴重な体験談がとても楽しかったです。
飛行機内にいるかのような気分に浸れるのもまたよかったです。
展示物も貴重で、興味深いものばかりでした。
姪っ子甥っ子に見せ、将来の参考にしてほしいなぁって感じます。

縄文杉と白谷雲水峡（苔むす森 & 太鼓岩）2日間トレッキングツアー by 屋久島の輪

Rainy Jomon Sugi & Rainy Shiratani Unsuikyo 雨の縄文杉＆雨の白谷雲水峡

Reviewed by: lechat

Day 1 (Jomon Sugi): The forecast predicted rain starting at noon, but it actually began to rain from the pickup at 4:30 PM. I put on the rental rain gear and attached the rain cover to my backpack before setting off. Some people were walking with umbrellas, but I went without one. There was someone in our group who walked at a leisurely pace, which helped me keep up despite my initial anxiety. My shoes broke along the way, but I borrowed a rubber stopper from the guide and managed to continue. Overall, I think it was a slow-paced group.

Physically, I surprisingly managed well even in the rain. If the weather had been good, I might have been completely fine. (The return trip on the tramway was a bit boring and tiring, though.) I love taking lots of photos, so I was disappointed that I couldn't do that. The photo the guide took at the last tunnel ended up blurry, which was also unfortunate. However, this rain trekking experience, which I would never do on my usual mountain walks from home, was a good experience.

Day 2 (Shiratani Unsuikyo): When we left the accommodation, it was cloudy, and I thought we could go today... but as we got closer, it started to rain. We found out about the course restrictions, but we decided to go as far as we could, even if it meant slightly exceeding the limits. I was very disappointed that we couldn't go to the mossy forest or Taiko Rock, but I still enjoyed the atmosphere.

On the way back, I received advice about sightseeing for the afternoon and the next day. The weather was nice on the western side of the island in the evening, which was both enjoyable and disappointing.

The ability to rent gear was a great help for a mountain trip where you already have a lot of luggage. My first trip to Yakushima was very enjoyable.

初日（縄文杉）：12時～の雨予報でしたが、実際には4時半のピックアップ時から雨…歩き出し前にレンタルのレインウェア上下着用、レインカバーをザックに付けての出発でした。傘をさして歩いている方もいらっしゃいましたが、私は傘無しで。おひとりゆっくりペースの方がいらしたので、おかげで不安だった私も着いていけました。途中で靴が壊れまして、ガイドさんにゴムのストッパーをお借りして乗り切りましたが、それでも着いていけたので全体的にはゆっくりペースのグループだったと思います。
体力的には雨でも意外と行けました。お天気良かったら全然大丈夫だったかもです。(帰りのトロッコ道はちょっと飽きちゃって　笑　しんどかったですが)
写真を撮りまくりたいタイプなのでそれが叶わず残念でした(最後のトンネルでせっかくガイドさんが撮ってくださった写真がブレていてそれも残念でした…)が、いつもの、家からの山歩きなら絶対やらない雨トレッキング、いい経験でした。

2日目（白谷雲水峡）：宿を出る時は曇りで、今日は行ける…！と思ったのですが、近づくにつれ雨が…そしてコース制限が判明しましたが、それでも行ける限り行こう、という事で少しだけ制限を超えてのんびり回っていただきました。
苔むす森も、太鼓岩も行けずにとても残念でしたが、雰囲気は感じられて楽しかったです。
帰りの車で、午後と翌日の観光のアドバイスもいただきました。夕方の島の西側と翌日はお天気良くて、楽しくもあり残念でもあり。

グッズレンタル出来るのは、ただでさえ荷物の多い山行きの旅行にとても助かりました。初の屋久島、とても楽しかったです。

I had seen differences in uniforms, but there were many things I realized for the first time after being taught. It was also great that there were goods available for purchase only for tour participants.
