It was a very enjoyable and content-rich two hours.
I could hear the cries of the black rabbits among the animals that appeared in the pitch black, and the sky was filled with stars with few clouds.
On the forest road chosen by Mr. Kawashima, many black rabbits and Amami woodcocks welcomed us, and I was also able to see the rare Amami ishi-kawa frog.
While it can be affected by the weather and other night tours, I highly recommend this tour guided by Mr. Kawashima for 1 to 2 people.
非常に楽しく内容濃い2時間でした。
漆黒の中に現れる動物達、黒ウサギの鳴き声も聞け
雲も少なく満点の星空付きでした。
川島さんの選んだ林道で多くの黒ウサギとアマミヤマシギが出迎えてくれ、
珍しいアマミイシカワガエルも見ることができました。
天候や他のナイトツアーに影響を受けますが
是非、川島さんガイドで1~2名向きのツアーです。

I have always wanted to see Jomon Sugi, which is said to be visible only to those who are called. This time, that opportunity finally came! The round trip trek to Jomon Sugi took 10 hours. Walking through the rugged forest with its uniquely resilient cedar trees in a world of exceptional environment, I was occasionally hit by rain that felt like a waterfall, accompanied by thunder. However, thanks to our guide's careful and precise guidance, I was able to meet the long-awaited Jomon Sugi. When we arrived, the rain had temporarily stopped, and the magnificent and robust sight of the cedar was breathtaking. A sense of camaraderie developed among the members of the tour, and I felt a great sense of accomplishment.
The next day, at Shiratani Unsuikyo and Taiko Rock, the rain I had worried about had cleared up, and since the distance was shorter, I was able to thoroughly enjoy the forest while listening to the guide's stories. The mystical moss-covered forest truly felt like the model for Princess Mononoke. The last 10 minutes heading to Taiko Rock reminded me of the hellish trek from the previous day, but the spectacular view from Taiko Rock, along with the miraculous appearance of a double rainbow, doubled my excitement. The guide's detailed explanations and the fun stories that made me forget my fatigue made the tour fly by.
I walked more in these two days than I ever have before, but I was able to spend an unforgettable time filled with memories that I will cherish for a lifetime. I definitely want to recommend this experience to my friends and acquaintances when I return.
呼ばれた人しか見られないとも言われている縄文杉をいつか見に行きたくて…今回その機会が訪れました!縄文杉まで往復10時間のトレッキング。世界でも特異な環境にあって逞しく植生した杉や険しい森を歩く中、時折雷が鳴り滝行?かと思うほど雨に打たれましたが、ガイドさんの丁寧且つ的確な案内のお陰で念願の縄文杉に会うことが出来ました。着いた時には一時的に雨も上がり壮大でたくましい杉の姿は圧巻でした。同じツアーの方達とも戦友愛みたいなものが生まれ(笑)達成感でいっぱいです。
翌日の白谷雲水峡〜太鼓岩は、心配していた雨も上がり距離も短いことから、ガイドさんの話を聞きながら森の中をじっくり堪能することが出来ました。幻想的な苔むす森は、もののけ姫のモデルになった場所というのも納得です。太鼓岩へ向かう最後の10分間は、前日の地獄○丁目を思い出しましたが、太鼓岩から眺める絶景に加え、奇跡的にダブルレインボーも現れ感激も倍増しました。ガイドさんの詳しい説明やポイント事に写真を撮って頂く等、また疲れを忘れさせる楽しいお話のお陰でアッという間のツアーでした。
この2日間で過去にないくらい歩きましたが、一生忘れることのない思い出深い時間を過ごす事ができました。帰ってから友人、知人にも是非勧めたいと思います。

【Tour Guide and Meeting Place】
I waited at the meeting place, Kenmin Plaza, but the tour guide did not come to call us. There was a person who seemed to be from a tour company in front of the adjacent Diet Member Hall, but there were no placards or bus signs. Since various tour companies use Kenmin Plaza, I couldn't identify which one was ours and waited until the time. Then, I was called via phone, which made me feel uncomfortable. The guide should have come to call us in advance, asking, "Is anyone from XX Tour here?" Other companies were announcing their groups. I spent the day with a tour guide who offered no apology or smile.
【Oishi Forest Park】
There are four courses: red, yellow, blue, and green, but I was told I couldn't go to the green Gajumaru Forest course. I wanted to go there, but I gave up. I wish the tour details had been written more clearly.
【添乗員と集合場所】
集合場所の県民広場で待つも添乗員は呼びに来ず。
隣の議員会館前にプラカードもバスの表示も無いツアー会社らしき人物あり。
県民広場は様々なツアー会社が利用されてるので判別出来ず時間まで待つ。
すると電話で呼び出され気分が悪い。
本来の集合場所に事前に『〇〇ツアーの方はいませんか?』と呼びに来るべきだろう。
他の会社は声出しされていた。
お詫びも笑顔もない添乗員と1日過ごす。
【大石林山】
赤黄青緑の4コース有るが、緑のガジュマル森林コースに行けないと言われた。
そこに行きたかったのにと思いつつ諦める。

One of my favorite idol group's members saw the Jomon Sugi and said it became a turning point for them, and I've always wanted to visit this place. After getting permission from my family and taking time off work, I set out on a solo trip. I chose this place because it mentioned that solo participants were welcome. The shuttle service to the accommodation was truly appreciated. I had quite a bit of confidence in my physical strength since I exercise regularly, but the round trip of about 10 hours was really tough. However, the guide and other participants were kind enough to talk to me, which made me very happy. I felt a sense of camaraderie that motivated me to keep going. The guide even gave us miso soup for lunch, and I was really touched by their kindness. The moment I saw the Jomon Sugi at the summit was truly a happy time. It was the best trip, blessed with good weather. I'm sore all over, but I really feel like this could be a turning point for me.
推しのアイドルグループの1人が縄文杉を見て「変わるきっかけになった」と言っていて以前からずっと行きたいと考えていた場所でした。家族に許可をもらい仕事も休みを貰えたので1人旅に出ました。1人参加歓迎と書いてあったのでここにしました。宿までの送迎は本当にありがたかったです。日頃から運動をしていたので体力にはけっこう自信があったのですが、往復約10時間はとてもきつかったです。ですが1人参加の私にガイドさんや他の参加者さんが心優しく話かけてくれてとても嬉しかったです。仲間意識が芽生えて頑張れます。ガイドさんがお昼にはお味噌汁をくれて本当に人の優しさに感激しました。頂上で縄文杉を見た瞬間は本当に幸せな時間でした。天候にも恵まれた最高の旅でした。全身筋肉痛ですが、本当に何か変わるきっかけになりそうな気がします。

The weather was great and the conditions were perfect. The guide was very kind and attentive, making the journey feel very quick. Since the equipment was mostly rental, there was nothing lacking. I brought a portable toilet just in case, but since I didn't use it, I think it might be fine even if you're not on the Jomon Sugi course. The guide took a lot of photos, and I really appreciated them, so I would love to try a different course again!

Thanks to the local veteran guide, I was able to participate with peace of mind and have fun. After the trolley path, the mountain trail was tougher than I imagined, but seeing Jomon Sugi was incredibly moving and gave me a great sense of achievement! It was clear weather in early July, and I hardly noticed any bugs, plus there were no bears, so the nature was truly beautiful and a wonderful space that made me want to lie down anywhere! There were so many highlights, so it was definitely the right choice to hire a guide. It's a lifelong memory!

I appreciated that this tour allows solo participants and provides transportation to and from the hotel, which is a rarity among many tours where participants must make their own way to the meeting point. Our guide, Mr. Kawashima, drove slowly while pointing out various creatures. During the tour, we encountered 5 to 6 Amami rabbits, observing them eating grass and fallen leaves, as well as climbing the slopes into the forest. We also saw the Ryukyu scops owl, the Ryukyu rat, the Ryukyu wild boar, and two types of frogs.
We learned about animal communication through the sounds of the rabbits and the different calls of the Ryukyu scops owl, as individuals responded to each other from a distance. Additionally, we were moved by the breathtaking starry sky when we got out of the car! Under the stars, a few fireflies were also dancing around.
Mr. Kawashima explained everything in a calm and pleasant manner, making for a very valuable and luxurious experience. It seems that reports of rabbits being killed by cars are not uncommon. I believe that the creatures and scenery we encounter can vary depending on the weather and the day's circumstances, but this tour not only allows us to be amazed by precious wildlife and beautiful starry skies but also encourages thoughts on the importance of protecting wildlife, ecosystems, and nature, while hoping for a harmonious balance with tourism and development. It’s a tour that also provides insight into the background of the area being designated as a World Heritage site!
ひとり参加ができること、集合場所に各自で向かうツアーが多いなか、宿泊しているホテルへの送迎があることが有り難かったです。
ガイドの川島さんが車をゆっくり走らせながら生き物を見つけて教えてくださいます。ツアー中、本命のアマミノクロウサギは5〜6羽に出会うことができ、草や落葉を食べる様子や山の斜面を登り森に入って行く姿、他にもリュウキュウコノハズク、ケナガネズミ、リュウキュウイノシシ、2種類のカエルも見ることができました。
ウサギの鳴き声、リュウキュウコノハズクの種類の違う鳴き声に離れた場所にいる個体同士が鳴き声に呼応し合う様子など耳からも生き物のコミュニケーションを知ることができました。
また、途中で車を降りて満天の星空にも感動!星空の下、数匹のホタルも舞っていました。
ガイドの川島さんは心地よい穏やかな語り口で丁寧に説明してくださり、そのお話も含めてとても貴重で贅沢な時間が過ごせました。ウサギが車に轢かれて死亡する報告も少なくないようです。天候やその日の縁で出会う生き物や景色も異なると思いますが、貴重な生き物やきれいな星空に感動するだけでなく、生き物や生態系・自然を守ることと、観光や開発が上手く調和してほしいなと感じたり、世界遺産に登録された背景も知ることができるツアーです!

Upon arriving at Yakushima, they helped me adjust the shoe size during the rental item handover at the airport, and even though my hotel was different, they assisted with luggage storage and transportation to another hotel, which was very helpful.
However, the guide was quite unresponsive, and the rental raincoat did not protect against the rain at all, leaving my T-shirt completely soaked. It was at a level where I couldn't understand why I even rented it.
屋久島到着日の空港でレンタル品の受け渡しで靴のサイズを合わせてくれたり、送り迎えでホテルが違うにも関わらず、荷物の預かりと別ホテルへの送迎もしていただけてとても助かった。

It was my first time seeing Jomon Sugi. I had heard that the round trip distance was 22 kilometers horizontally and 750 meters vertically, which sounded quite challenging, so I trained to build my stamina. If you have the stamina to comfortably run about 10 kilometers in an hour, you should have no problem climbing. There were five people in my party besides the guide and myself, but unfortunately, one person had to retire midway due to a cramp (possibly a muscle strain?), so I recommend preparing yourself physically to some extent.
I brought my own clothes and towels, but I rented a backpack, hiking boots, and a raincoat from the tour, which was sufficient. If you prepare everything yourself, light gear should probably be fine, but the ground is very slippery, so hiking boots are a must. I also requested a lunch box from the tour, and while I think it was just ordinary in taste, the scenery made it taste better. I prepared for cold and insect protection, but those might not have been necessary. I climbed at the end of June, and the raincoat was sufficient for warmth; there were hardly any bugs, and there were no leeches (I was quite worried about that...).
Considering the time of year, it was miraculous to have good weather, and it was truly an emotional experience. (The guide and the party were great too!) Seeing it with my own eyes and feeling the impact of the experience is irreplaceable compared to images online. I highly recommend it!
初の縄文杉でした。水平距離往復22キロ、垂直距離750メートル、結構過酷な行程と聞いていたので、走り込みで体力つけて備えました。1時間で10キロ程度を楽に走れる程度の体力なら問題なく登れます。同行のパーティーはガイドさんと自分を除いて5人居ましたが、そのうち1人は残念ながら足が攣って(肉離れかも?)途中リタイアだったので、折角ならある程度体力つけて備える事をオススメします。
装備は服とかタオルだけ自分で持っていき、レンタルでリュックと登山靴とレインコートをツアーで借りましたが十分でした。全て自前で用意する場合も軽装で多分大丈夫ですが、足元は非常に滑るので、登山靴はマストです。お弁当もツアーでお願いしましたが、本当は普通の味だと思うのですが景色の分美味しく感じました。他にも防寒や防虫等備えましたが、要らなかったかも。6月末に登りましたが、防寒はレインコートで十分、虫もほとんど居らず、ヒルは出てきませんでした。(大分、心配してたんだけど。。。)
天気に恵まれたのは時期を考えると奇跡的でしたが、本当に感動的な体験でした。(ガイドさんもパーティーも良かった!)ネットの画像ではなく、自分の目で見て、迫力を感じる経験は他に代えがたいと感じました。是非オススメします!

At the end of June, I went trekking in the middle of the rainy season. Due to rain and thunder, we had to stop because it was deemed unsafe. Other trekking groups continued, so I felt that who the guide was would be quite important.
I also heard that there have been recent fatal accidents, which has made everyone more cautious. If you really want to go trekking, it's better to set aside an extra couple of days as a backup.
I was really disappointed because I went there with this purpose in mind. If they had informed us in advance that there was a possibility of postponing to the next day, I could have adjusted my itinerary accordingly.
It may be a cynical view, but I couldn't help but feel that the guide might not want to go out in bad weather.
6月末、梅雨の最中のトレッキングでした。途中雨と雷のため継続不能との判断で中止に。他のトレッキンググループは決行していたので、誰がガイドになるかがかなり重要だと思いました。
また最近死亡事故があって慎重になってるらしいです。絶対トレッキングしたいなら2日程度予備日を設けた方がいいです。
これを目的に行ったのに本当に残念です。事前に翌日に延期になる可能性を伝えてくれてたらそれ用に旅程を組んだのに。
うがった見方ですが、ガイドさんが悪天候の中行きたくないのかなってこちらは感じる程でした。

A few years ago, I had been planning to challenge myself with trekking to "Jomon Sugi" in Yakushima. Since I was traveling alone, I requested a guide. At first, I was filled with anxiety about whether I could complete the approximately 10-hour journey, but miraculously, the weather was good, and as I walked, I became excited and enjoyed myself. The guide was truly wonderful. Thanks to the guide, I was able to walk with peace of mind, and they provided timely guidance while maintaining a good balance of pace and rest. Along the way, the guide shared stories that added value to my life, allowing me to enjoy the trekking for 10 hours without getting bored. On the way back, my feet started to hurt quite a bit, but every time I overcame a challenge, the guide genuinely celebrated with me, which was so moving it almost brought me to tears. Yakushima is an incredible place. It offers emotions and joys (and challenges) that you can never experience in everyday life. Although it's said that you should visit Yakushima at least once in your lifetime, it's a place I want to visit again and again. I became more curious about Yakushima. I can't mention names, but I would like to take this opportunity to thank the guide who took such good care of me. Additionally, I appreciated the consideration of receiving phone calls to confirm my belongings a few days and the day before the trek. It made me feel at ease. I think it's a very good tour company. I look forward to working with you again when I visit Yakushima.
数年前から屋久島『縄文杉』のトレッキングに挑戦したいと思い、計画を立てていました。一人旅だったのでガイドさんをお願いしました。最初は約10時間の道のりを完歩出来るのか不安でいっぱいでしたが、奇跡的に天候も良く歩いているうちにワクワク楽しくなりました。なんと言ってもガイドさんが素晴らしい。ガイドさんのお陰で安心して歩めたのと適度な加速と休息をとりながらタイミングよくガイドしてくださいました。道中にもこれからの人生にプラスになるお話しもしてくださったりと10時間退屈せずにトレッキングを楽しむことが出来ました。帰り道は、流石に足の痛みが強くなりましたが、ガイドさんが一つ一つクリアする度に本当に一緒に喜んでくれて涙が出そうになるくらい感動しました。屋久島はとても素晴らしい場所です。日常では絶対に味わえない感動と喜び(辛さも)があります。一生に一度は訪れたいと言われる屋久島ですが、何度でも訪れたい場所です。屋久島のことをもっと知りたくなりました。お名前は出せませんが、本当にお世話になったガイドさんにこの場を借りてお礼を申し上げます。
あと、3日前や前日にもしっかりと持ち物の確認などの電話をくださるなどご配慮も有難いです。安心できました。
とても良いツアー会社だと思います。また、屋久島に行った際はどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

Before sharing my thoughts, I want to mention one thing. The website and online presence of Jumbo Tours, the organizer here, are quite poor and confusing, making it easy to make mistakes. The main tour itself was great, but if the company doesn't improve the application screen and how information is displayed on the website, users will continue to feel frustrated.
Despite this, I was really satisfied with the experience. Although there weren't many places that were difficult to reach by rental car or public transportation, it was truly enjoyable to relax and sightsee while being gently rocked by the bus.
As advice, when walking the route at Oishi Forest, the paths outside of the barrier-free course can be quite muddy, and some mountain trails are a bit steep, with stairs that are not completely well-maintained. It's best to wear non-slip shoes like sneakers that you don't mind getting dirty. Additionally, even in summer, long sleeves and long pants are advisable. While there weren't many bugs, there were some flying around, so it would be wise to take precautions against getting bitten.
For lunch, the meal consisted entirely of fish dishes: sashimi, grilled fish, miso soup, and rice, so if you're not fond of fish, it might be a good idea to consult in advance. On the day of the tour, the tour guide confirmed this point before boarding the bus.
The Kuina Forest is a facility where you can see artificially hatched Yanbaru Kuina up close, and this bus tour is scheduled to arrive in time for the feeding at 3 PM, so you should be able to observe them without fail.
After hearing the historical story of Henoko Cape's return to Japan, looking towards Yoronjima may prompt thoughts about the feelings of the Okinawan people towards Japan.
The bus makes stops at various places, including roadside stations and service areas for restroom breaks, so it's best to take advantage of these opportunities as much as possible.
The only regret I have is that due to the rainy season, the weather wasn't great, so I couldn't see the blue sea from Henoko Cape as vividly as during the high season.
Lastly, for the return trip, you can choose from two drop-off locations, so if it seems like there will be traffic in Naha City on weekends or holidays, it might be better to get off at Omoromachi DFS. We arrived about 30 minutes later than scheduled due to heavy traffic, so those with subsequent plans should be cautious.
感想の前にひとつ。ここの主催しているジャンボツアーズのホームページやweb関係が貧弱かつ間違えやすく分かりにくい。ツアー本編は良かったので、会社として申し込み画面や、ホームページ上の表示の仕方を改善しないと利用者はイライラし続けることになる。
集合場所の写真や地図が、いくらボタンを押しても表示されず、結果として私自身が悪いのだが、集合時間ギリギリに県民広場にやっと辿り着け、添乗員さん、バスの運転手さん、他の参加者の皆さんに多大なご迷惑をお掛けしてしまった。
それ以外は、本当に満足している。レンタカーや公共交通機関で行くにしても行きにくい場所に訪れた場所自体はそんなに多くなかったにせよ、バスに揺られてのんびり観光できて本当に良かった。
アドバイスとしては、大石林山のルートを歩く際、バリアフリーコース以外は結構道がぬかるんでいたり、山道がちょっと急だったり、階段も完全に整備されていないところもあるので、汚れても良いスニーカーなどの滑りにくい靴で行くと良い。かつ、服装も夏でも長袖・長ズボンの方が良い。虫なども多くはなかったものの飛んでいたので刺されたりするとやっかいかと思うので、注意された方が良いと思った。
昼食は刺身、焼き魚、味噌汁とご飯という完全に魚料理なので苦手な方は事前に相談されると良いかもしれない。当日、バス乗車前に添乗員さんからその点には確認をされた。
クイナの森は人工孵化したヤンバルクイナを間近で見られる施設で、このバスツアーは午後3時の餌の時間に合わせてここに来るので、確実に観察できるかと思う。
辺戸岬も日本復帰への歴史の話を聞いてから与論島の方面を見やると沖縄の人々の日本への思いとは、ふと考えられるかもしれない。
トイレ休憩も道の駅やサービスエリアも含め、各所に停まってくれるので、できる限りこまめに用は済ませた方が良いかと思う。
唯一の心残りは、梅雨だったので天候がイマイチだったので、ハイシーズンほど辺戸岬からの海の青さを見ることができなかったことぐらいか。
最後に、帰りのバスの降車場所は行きの二箇所から選べるので、那覇市内が渋滞していそうな土休日はおもろまちDFSで降りてしまった方が良いかもしれない。渋滞がひどくて予定時刻より30分程度遅くついたので、その後の予定がある方は注意された方が良い。

Due to heavy rain the day before, we were unsure if the bus would run, but we managed to get to the location, and by the time we departed, the rain had mostly stopped and it turned sunny. We were lucky.
I was really happy to see the Jomon Sugi after walking and walking. The water was incredibly delicious.
The guide shared a lot of information about the mountains, Jomon Sugi, and Yakushima, which was very helpful. It was a long tour, but I enjoyed it. Thank you very much.
前日からの大雨でバスが出るかどうかの状況でしたがなんとか現地入り出来、出発前にはほぼ止んでいてその後晴れに。ラッキーでした。
歩いて歩いて歩いて目指した縄文杉を見る事が出来てうれしかったです。
水がすごく美味しかった
ガイドさんは山や縄文杉の事、屋久島についてなど色々お話しして下さり、為になりましたし長いツアーでしたが楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

Once we entered the safe zone, we encountered a bear! It was almost about to be canceled, but we were able to complete the tour. Thanks to the guide's careful explanations, we felt at ease throughout the experience.
We visited the Sakura Falls, which the guide introduced to us, and we were able to see the cherry salmon swimming upstream, which was fantastic. On the way back, we had Ezo deer.
Thank you very much!
安全地帯に入ったところで.熊ちゃん出現!
危うく中止になるところでしたが.最後までツアーできました。ガイドの方の丁寧なご案内で安心して過ごせました。
ガイドさんに紹介いただいた、桜の滝に
足を運び.サクラマスの遡上を見ることも出来て最高です。
帰りに、エゾシカ食べました

Thank you for taking me, a 68-year-old, on the tour to Pinai Sara Falls, which mostly caters to those around 60 years old. I had a great time swimming and jumping in the waterfall basin. The lunch with rice balls, pickles, and fried chicken was delicious. Above all, I was very happy to have my photos taken and receive the data. Thank you to the young male and female tour guides.
ピナイサーラの滝までのツアーは、ほとんどが60歳位までですが、68歳の私を連れて行って頂きありがとうございました。特に滝壺で泳いだりジャンプしたりととっても楽しかったです。お昼のおにぎり漬物、唐揚げとっても美味しかったです。なんと言っても写真を撮ってもらってデータを頂けるのは大変嬉しいです。若い男女のツアーガイドさんありがとうございました。

This was my third visit to Yakushima, and my first time at Yakusugi Land. Our guide was Mr. Ichikawa from YNAC Classic. I was moved by his wealth of knowledge and love for Yakushima's nature, making for an inspiring half-day experience. He not only provided thorough explanations at a relaxed pace but also ensured that participants could fully immerse themselves in nature by being mindful of the surroundings. Although the weather was unfortunately poor all day, it added to the mystical atmosphere of Yakushima's forest, creating an extraordinary experience of walking in the rain while wearing rain gear. The YNAC Classic tour is not just about sharing knowledge of nature; it conveys the "messages" that nature holds, truly making it an "interpretation" tour. The bento wrapped in bamboo leaves from Kamogawa, which included fried chicken and fish paste made from flying fish, was also fantastic!
3回目の屋久島にして初のヤクスギランド。ガイドはYNACクラシックの市川さん。屋久島博士を呼びたくなるほどの知識量と屋久島の自然への愛に感動の半日でした。じっくりゆっくり、1つ1つ丁寧に解説してくれるだけではなく、ツアー参加者がプライベート空間でどっぷり自然に浸れるように、周囲の動きまで意識して案内されていらっしゃるのが印象的でした。終日あいにくのお天気でしたが、それもまた屋久島の森の雰囲気をより幻想的にし、雨の中をレインウェアを着て歩く非日常な体験でした。YNACクラシックのツアーは、自然についての知識を伝えるだけではなく、その自然が持つ「メッセージ」を伝えてくれる、まさに”インタープリテーション”ツアーですね。唐揚げやトビウオを使ったすり身などが入った「かもがわ」さんの竹の皮で包まれたお弁当も最高でした!

Thanks to the guide's consideration in pacing, I was able to walk without any strain. The grandeur of Jomon Sugi is completely different from what you see in photos; it's a must-see. However, the rental did not include sticks, which I felt were necessary.
ガイドさんの配慮によるペース配分のお陰で、無理なく歩けました。縄文杉の迫力は写真とは全く異なり、これは必見です。ただ、レンタルにはスティックは含まれておらず、これは必要と感じました。
