All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

When it comes to sightseeing in Yakushima, I had the image of a "morning trekking tour," but this tour was perfect for someone like me, who usually prefers indoor activities. They picked me up at my accommodation at 8 AM, and we spent the day visiting the highlights of Yakushima by bus, returning to my accommodation in the evening. The guide and driver provided detailed and interesting information, and their love for Yakushima was evident. I definitely want to visit again in a different season.

屋久島観光といえば、「早朝からのトレッキングツアー」のイメージでしたが、このツアーは朝８時に宿泊先まで迎えに来ていただけ、バスで行ける屋久島の見所を１日かけて回り、夕方にはまた宿泊先まで送っていただけるという、私のような普段はインドア派の人に特にピッタリのツアーです。
ガイド兼運転手さんの丁寧で詳しいお話は興味深く、また屋久島への愛があふれていました。また、違う季節に是非訪れたいと思いました。

I had high expectations because the guide mentioned having nearly 20 years of experience, but when I asked questions about Yakushima or the plants, they often didn't know the answers and mostly just read what was written on the signs. The walking pace was slow, which made me even more tired. I wished they would listen to the customers' needs and adjust the speed accordingly. I felt like I could have gone on my own without a guide.

The day before, when I went to Jomon Sugi with another tour company, the guide was knowledgeable and had an interesting way of speaking, which made me feel this way even more. However, Shiratani Unsuikyo was very nice, so I'm glad I went. The path is easy as well.

ガイドさんがガイド歴が20年近くあると言っていたので期待しましたが、なにか屋久島の事や植物について質問しても分からないと答える事が多く、ほとんど看板に書いてあることをさらっと読むだけでした。歩くペースも遅く余計に疲れました。もっとお客さんのニーズを聞いてスピード調整をして欲しかったです。これならガイドなしで自分一人で行けば良かったかなと感じました。

前日に他のツアー会社で縄文杉に行った時は、知識も豊富で話も面白い素晴らしいガイドさんだったので、余計そう感じてしまいました。
ですが白谷雲水峡はとても良かったので行って良かったです。道も簡単です。

Guide Taniyama made accurate judgments at key points, such as pacing and where to leave our luggage, which eased my anxiety about the long tour and allowed me to follow along with confidence. It was clear that the guide was very knowledgeable, and he answered all my questions in detail, which was very educational.

He also treated us to miso soup using the gas he brought for our lunch. What thoughtful consideration! It was so nice of him to carry something heavy just for us. I was truly moved to enjoy warm miso soup in the middle of the forest.

The plan to go from Taiko Rock to Yakusugi in one day was the perfect way for me to spend my remaining time meaningfully, especially since I wanted to relax on Yakushima. I am grateful that he willingly accepted to arrange such a plan, which is not easy to find. Thank you so much! ✨

ガイドの谷山さんが、ペース配分やここでは荷物を置いていく、など要所で的確な判断をしてくださり、長時間のツアーに不安でしたが安心してついていくことが出来ました。
とても勉強をされているのが分かるガイドさんで、何を聞いても答えてくださり、詳しいので勉強になりました。
またお昼ご飯に持参してくださったガスを使ってお味噌汁をご馳走してくださいました。なんという心配り！重いのにわざわざ持ってきてくださるお心遣いが嬉しいですよね。まさか森の中で温かいお味噌汁をいただけるなんて、感動でした。
１日で太鼓岩〜屋久杉までを行くプランは、屋久島でゆっくり過ごしたい私にとっては残りの時間を有意義に過ごすことが出来る最高のプランで、そういったプランがなかなかない中で、それを快く引き受けてくださることに感謝です。
本当にありがとうございます✨

Day 1
The trekking to Jomon Sugi was enriched by the tour experience. Among the various sightseeing spots, I was able to hear enjoyable stories and truly feel the nature around me. The weather was favorable from the morning, and I could see the mountains of Yakushima clearly. Since there were fewer tourists at this time, I didn't have to worry about the restrooms being crowded, and they were conveniently located for breaks, so it was not a problem. I did bring a portable toilet just in case.

Day 2
We started under a cloudy sky. By the time we reached Taiko Rock, the sun peeked through, and I was able to enjoy the scenery. There were several impressive landmarks along the way, making for a fun hike.

This was my first time in Yakushima. I participated as a solo female traveler, and it was a tour that I could fully enjoy even alone. I was able to ask the guide all the questions I wanted, and the time flew by.

１日目
縄文杉までのトレッキングは、ツアーだからこその内容が充実していました。観光名所のポイントがいくつもある中で、より楽しめる話が聞けたり、自然を肌で感じることができました♪
朝から天候に恵まれ、屋久島の山々もよく見えました。
この時期観光客も少なかったこともあり、心配していたトイレは混むこともなく、休憩とりながら、ちょうどいい場所にあったので問題なかったです。一応、簡易トイレは持っていってました。

2日目
曇り空の中スタート。太鼓岩に着く頃には晴れ間が見え、こちらも景色を満喫できました。見応えのある名所も所々あり、楽しいハイキングとなりました。

今回、初屋久島。女性一人参加しましたが、一人参加でも充分楽しめるツアーでした。ガイドさんに聞きたい話も聞けて、あっという間でした。

On the first day, I arrived on a direct flight from Itami and was picked up for the afternoon tour, which then dropped me off at my accommodation.

On the final day, I participated in the morning tour and returned home on an afternoon flight. A taxi picked me up from the accommodation in the morning, and I joined the bus for a round trip around Yakushima, stopping at the Furusato Market to buy souvenirs before taking a direct flight back to Itami. It was truly an efficient sightseeing experience without any wasted time.

I was able to see two impressive waterfalls and encountered adorable Yakuzaru and Yakushika up close. Above all, the guide's stories were interesting, and I had a great time. Plus, the price was very reasonable, which was a bonus.

Since I can't drive, I really appreciated this kind of tour.

初日は、伊丹からの直行便を降りてすぐに午後コースに拾ってもらい、最後は宿まで送ってもらいました。

最終日は、逆に、午前コースに参加してから午後の飛行機で帰りました。朝宿までタクシーで迎えに来てもらい、バスと合流して屋久島一周、ふるさと市場で降りて土産物を買って直行便で伊丹までと、ホント無駄なく効率的な観光ができました。
迫力ある二つの滝が見られ、可愛いヤクザル、ヤクシカにも至近距離で出会えたし、何よりもガイドさんのお話が面白く、楽しい時間が過ごせました。しかも、お値段が安いのでいうことなしです。

私は運転ができないので、こういうツアーはほんとにありがたかったです。

Mr. Takahashi, our guide, was very knowledgeable and experienced. Throughout the 10-hour round trip, he shared fascinating stories about Yakushima, making it a very enjoyable time. An exciting and thrilling experience awaits that goes beyond your imagination. This is a must-see adventure you may want to experience in your lifetime!

ガイドの高橋さんは、知識経験が豊富で、往復10時間の工程の中、終始、屋久島に関わるあらゆることについて興味深いお話をしてくださいましたので、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。想像を超えたワクワクドキドキ体験が待っています。一生に一度は、体験すべきですよ！This is a must-see adventure you may want to experience in your life time!

My first time in Yakushima.
A few minutes after arriving, I boarded the shuttle bus and joined the group participating in the morning tour.
Unfortunately, it was raining, but that was expected, and I was captivated by the scenery from the bus window.
The Yakusugi Land was a 30-minute course, and the guide's stories were fascinating; it went by in no time.
And then there was the Jomon Sugi. Its size was overwhelming and had a dignified presence. It's amazing that you can park the car right next to it.
Due to my flight schedule, I only had half a day this time, but next time I definitely want to do a full-day course and explore all around Yakushima. Thank you for your hospitality.

初めての屋久島。
到着して数分後に迎えのバスに乗り、午前中から参加の皆さまに加わり、ツアースタートです。
残念ながら雨でしたが、それも想定内で、車窓からの景色にくぎづけ。
ヤクスギランドは30分コースで、ガイドさんの話が興味深く、あっと言う間でした。
そして紀元杉。圧倒される大きさで、凛々しい感じ。間近に車を横付けできるのはすごいですね。
飛行機の関係で今回は半日でしたが、次回はぜひ一日コースで、屋久島一周したいと思います。お世話になりました。

I joined the tour as a solo traveler. January and February are completely off-season, so there were very few people, which was great. Perhaps due to the mild winter, I was able to enjoy it without being hindered by snow!

The Jomon Sugi tour was guided by a guide named Kyoku, and there were just three of us, including another female university student, making for a very enjoyable trekking experience. The explanations were very detailed, and I learned a lot about Yakushima and Jomon Sugi. The guide was always attentive to our pace and would warn us in advance about slippery areas, which provided an overwhelming sense of security!♡ I heard that during the summer season, there are long lines at Wilson's stump, but since there were no crowds, I was happy to be able to try taking pictures multiple times until I got the ones I liked.

On the second day, we went to Shiratani Unsuikyo. The guide was the oldest in Yakushima, but he moved lightly and initially planned to take us only to the mossy forest, yet he ended up taking us all the way to Taiko Rock. He has been guiding for 30 years and mentioned that the early morning is the best time for Shiratani Unsuikyo. We reached Taiko Rock before anyone else and enjoyed the view. By the time we started descending, fog rolled in, and I thought to myself how impressive it was to have such an experienced guide.

While Jomon Sugi is a must-see, in terms of simply beautiful scenery, Shiratani Unsuikyo was incredibly stunning as well. It became the best memory of Yakushima. Thank you very much!

女1人で参加したのでツアーに申し込みました。1月2月は完全にオフシーズンで、人も少なくて非常に良かったです。暖冬の影響からか雪で足場を取られることもなく楽しめました！

縄文杉ツアーは局さんというガイドさんで、もう1人大学四年生の女の子と一緒で合計3人で非常に楽しいトレッキングでした。解説が非常にきめ細やかだったのと、屋久島に関して、縄文杉に関しての情報を色々と教えて下さりました。またペース配分が問題ないか常に気にかけてくださったり、滑りやすそうなところでは事前に注意を呼びかけたりしてくださって圧倒的安心感がございました！！♡ウィルソン株等は夏のシーズンは長蛇の列ができるみたいですが、人がいなかったので何回も何回も気にいる写真が撮れるまでトライできたのも嬉しかったです。

2日目は白谷雲水峡に行きました。屋久島のガイドさんで最高齢というガイドさんでしたが、足取りは軽く、当初は苔むすの森までだったはずが、太鼓岩まで連れてっていって下さりました。既にガイドを30年やられているということで、白谷雲水峡は朝一が一番良いと言われ、誰よりも早く太鼓岩に到達し眺めを堪能できました。下山する頃になると、霧が出てきてさすがベテランガイドさんだなと思いました。


縄文杉も外せないですが、単純な綺麗な景色！という意味では白谷雲水峡もとてつもなく綺麗でした。。最高の屋久島の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！！

Since it happened to be a small group day, I was able to listen closely to the guide's explanations. I was glad to learn in detail about Yakushima's geology, vegetation, and history. There was also plenty of time at each sightseeing point, which was satisfying. The food was delicious as well. It was convenient and appreciated that they provided transportation close to my accommodation.

たまたま少人数の日だったので、ガイドさんの解説をしっかり聞くことができました。屋久島の地質・植生・歴史について詳しく聞けてよかったです。
各見学ポイントでの時間も十分とられており、満足でした。ごはんもおいしかったです。
宿の近くまで送迎してもらえるのも便利でありがたかったです。

On the first day in Yakushima, I used a half-day plan in the afternoon. After landing on a direct flight from Osaka, I was able to start sightseeing in Yakushima right away, making the most of my time. Additionally, I was picked up at the airport and dropped off at my hotel at the end, which helped save on transportation costs.

Since it was an off-season weekday, I was the only participant, and a taxi came to pick me up. The fact that the tour operates even for just one person is impressive. The taxi driver accompanied me on the 50-minute course at Yakusugi Land and provided a thorough guide.

Choosing this course on the first day was the right decision, as it allowed me to gain some background knowledge about Yakushima. With a dedicated private guide for 2,500 yen, the cost performance is remarkable.

屋久島１日目に午後半日プランを利用しました。大阪からの直行便を降りてすぐに屋久島観光に入れるので、時間を無駄なくすごせます。さらに空港で拾ってもらい、最後はホテルまで送ってもらえるので、移動のための費用も節約できます。
オフシーズンの平日だったので、利用者は私だけで、タクシーが迎えにきていました。一人でも催行というのが、このツアーの凄いところです。タクシーの運転手さんが、屋久杉ランドの５０分コースを一緒に回ってくれ、丁寧にガイドしてくださいました。
屋久島の予備知識を仕入れるという意味でも初日にこのコースを選択して正解でした。
貸し切り専属ガイドがついて２５００円ですから、脅威のコストパフォーマンスですね。

We participated on January 2nd. Although it was the New Year, we were the only participants. There were probably only about 20 people on the mountain, so it felt like we had the place to ourselves. We could walk at our own pace and really appreciated the guide's explanations. I think winter is recommended since the hiking trails can get congested in the summer. I haven't done much hiking, but I had prepared to some extent, so I didn't experience any muscle soreness. It might be tough for those who don't exercise at all. It's better to have rain gear because you never know when it might rain.

1/2に参加。年始でしたが参加者は私たちのみ。山自体もおそらく20人ほどしかおらず、貸切状態。ゆっくり自分たちのペースで歩け、しっかり説明も聞けてやはりガイドさんのありがたみを感じました。夏は登山道も渋滞するらしいので冬、おすすめだと思いました。登山ほとんどしたことないですがある程度事前準備をしていたので筋肉痛とかもなし。全く運動しない方にはしんどいかもです。雨具はあった方がいいです。雨はいつ降るかわからないです。

I received very polite guidance, and I learned a lot. I see, that's why Yakushima is amazing! The more I learn, the more I love the profound Yakushima. I'm glad to have been guided by a man full of love for Yakushima! Thank you very much! ☆

とても丁寧にガイドしていただき
なるほど、だから屋久島ってすごいんだ！
と沢山学びがありました。
知れば知るほど奥深い屋久島がますます好きになりました。
屋久島愛に溢れたおじさんにガイドしていただきよかったです！ありがとうございました☆

I was able to get there relatively easily. It was tough because it started to rain, but the forest, wet from the rain, was very beautiful.

比較的簡単にたどり着きました。
雨が降ってきて大変だったけど、雨で濡れた森はとても美しかったです。

It was tough walking the whole way, but I was able to see deer and monkeys, and I was moved by the large trees along the path, so I enjoyed it without getting bored. The fog was so thick that I couldn't see Jomon Sugi clearly, but it was divine and amazing.

ひたすら歩いて大変だったけど、鹿や猿を見つけたり、道中にある大木に感動したり、飽きることなく楽しめました。
霧がすごくて縄文杉をはっきり見ることはできなかったけど、神々しくて最高でした。

I went trekking in early January. The weather was clear. Since it was right after the winter break, the area was very quiet, and I was able to climb at a leisurely pace, almost having the place to myself. I had previously climbed to the Forest of the Mononoke in September, and this time I climbed to Taiko Rock. The guide was very knowledgeable and shared stories from the locals, making for a very enjoyable experience. The mossy forest was beautiful, with sunlight filtering through in places due to the clear weather.

When I reached Taiko Rock, the clear weather provided a fantastic view, and I couldn't help but shout "Yahoo!" It was great to learn that there are certain directions where the echo comes back easily. The guide even showed me poses for taking recommended photos and listened to me as if it were a life consultation. Thank you so much for that! I would love to climb again someday during the cherry blossom season.

1月上旬にトレッキングしました。天気は晴れ。冬休み明けだったこともあり、非常にすいていてほとんど独占状態でゆっくり登ることができました。白谷雲水峡は９月に一度もののけの森まで登っており、今回は太鼓岩まで登りました。ガイドの方が非常に詳しく、地元の方の話まで交えながら教えてくださり、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。晴れていたことで、苔むす森も所々光が射していてとても美しかったです。
たどり着いた太鼓岩は天気が晴れだったこともあり、非常に見晴らしがよく、思わず「やっほー！」と叫んでしまいました。やまびこが返ってきやすい方向があるようなので教えてもらえて良かったです✨あちこちでおすすめの写真を撮るポーズまで教えてくださったり、半ば人生相談のようなことまで聞いてくださったり本当にありがとうございました。またいつか桜の咲く季節に是非のぼってみたいと思います。

I was a bit anxious the day before the full day of mountain climbing, but once we started, thanks to our guide Kodama's thorough explanations and appropriate breaks, everything went smoothly! Despite the unfortunate weather, we were able to visit Jomon Sugi and Taiko Rock, which became wonderful memories! I was very happy to take a lot of photos at the photo spots! The next day I had muscle soreness, so I really think it was good to do it all in one day!

丸一日の山登りということで前日は少し不安もありましたが、いざ始まってみるとガイドのこだまさんの丁寧な説明と適度な休憩でスムーズに進むことができました！！あいにくのお天気でしたが縄文杉も太鼓岩にも行くことができいい思い出になりました！写真スポットでたくさん写真をたくさん撮っていただけたのがとても嬉しかったです！翌日は筋肉痛になったのでやはり1日にまとめて良かったと思いました！

I participated in a day trip to Jomon Sugi and a day trip to Shiratani Unsuikyo (Taiko Rock).

The guide was very kind and friendly, making it easy for me to join even though it was my first time trekking. Not only did they teach me a lot about Yakushima, but they also provided thoughtful snacks along the way, which I truly appreciated!

In early January, there were no other people around (I only encountered a total of 9 people), and I was able to spend time surrounded by nature, creating unforgettable memories. I highly recommend visiting Yakushima during the off-season!

縄文杉1日→白谷雲水峡1日(太鼓岩)に参加しました。

ガイドさんがとても優しく親切な方で
トレッキングがはじめてでも安心して参加できました。
屋久島のことをたくさん教えてくださるのはもちろんのこと
道中の軽食の気遣いなどもたくさんいただき、本当にありがたかったです!!

1月上旬で人が誰もいなくて(すれ違った人はなんと全部で9人)
自然だけに囲まれて過ごすことができ、忘れられない思い出になりました。
オフシーズンの屋久島、とってもお勧めです!!

I went on a solo trip to Yakushima for 3 nights and 4 days.
- I wanted to make the most of my arrival day in the afternoon.
- I wanted to fully experience the natural beauty of Yakushima.
- Since I was going to Jomon Sugi on the second day, I wanted to conserve my energy and go to bed early on the first day.
- I didn't rent a car, so I wanted round-trip transportation.

I was pondering what could fulfill these four wishes when this tour solved everything for me!
Even though I was the only participant during the off-season, the guide took me around in a taxi and provided detailed and careful explanations about Yakushima one-on-one! I felt lucky to have a private experience.
Not only did I have a great time at Yakusugi Land, but thanks to the wealth of knowledge I gained about Yakushima before going to Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo on the second and third days, the enjoyment of trekking was multiplied many times over.
I highly recommend participating on the first day!

3泊4日の屋久島一人旅に行きました。
・到着日の午後を有意義に過ごしたい
・屋久島の自然の魅力をたっぷり知りたい
・2日目に縄文杉に行くので、初日は体力温存して早く寝たい
・レンタカーはしないので往復送迎してもらいたい

この4つを叶えられることは何かないかなぁと悩ましく思っていたところ、このツアーが全てを解決してくれました！
オフシーズンで参加者が自分1人でしたが、ガイドさんがタクシーで全て案内してくださり
マンツーマンで屋久島のことを詳しく丁寧にお話ししてくださいました！貸切気分でラッキーでした。
ヤクスギランドで楽しい時間を過ごせたのはもちろんのこと、
2日目〜3日目の縄文杉・白谷雲水峡に行くときに屋久島に関する事前知識がたくさん入っていたおかげで、トレッキングの楽しさが何倍にも増しました。
ぜひ初日の参加をお勧めします‼︎

I was a bit anxious about the all-day tour starting early in the morning, but thanks to our guide, Mr. Takahashi, I was able to enjoy trekking at a comfortable pace with my fellow tour members while listening to information about Yakushima and an iPhone workshop!
The miso soup and coffee during our breaks were also very delicious!

I think it's possible to go on your own, but having a guide is definitely safer, and you can learn a lot about Yakushima. Next time I go, I want to visit Mount Miyanoura, so I hope to book again then!

早朝から丸一日掛けてのツアーに不安がありましたが、アクティブ高橋さん(笑）のガイドのおかげで、屋久島の事やi-Phone講座に耳を傾けながら同じツアー仲間の方々と程よいペースでのトレッキングを楽しむ事ができました！
(´▽｀)
あ！休憩時の味噌汁とコーヒー等はとっても美味しかったです！

個人で行く事もできると思いましたが、やはりガイドさんがいた方が安全ですし、屋久島の事をたくさん学べると思います。
今度行く時は宮之浦岳に行きたいので、その時はまたお願いします( ^^)

I was grateful to be taken back to the hotel after sightseeing. Since we were a small group, it was fun to get to know everyone.

観光の後は宿泊先のホテルまで送っていただき助かりました。少人数で観光するので皆さんと仲良くなれて楽しかったです。

On New Year's Day, we visited Jomon Sugi, and the following day, we went to Taiko Rock. Both days were blessed with sunny weather, and the guide's explanations were thorough and very easy to understand. I believe they were also very considerate of the participants' health and well-being.

Jomon Sugi:
Thanks to the guide's quick thinking, we were able to see the first sunrise from the bridge. Even though it was sunny, being January, the miso soup provided by the guide during lunch was a comforting warmth.

Taiko Rock:
The day before, there were three groups with seven people, but on this day, it was just our family, making it essentially a private tour. We were able to bond over topics other than trekking, and having the same guide for two consecutive days made the long journey feel quick.

If I have the opportunity to visit Yakushima again, I would definitely like to request the same guide. For example, I think it would be great if there was a guide selection system for repeat participants. Yakushima Tourist Station, please consider this!

元旦初日が縄文杉　翌日太鼓岩　でした。
両日ともに晴れの天気に恵まれ、ガイドさんの説明は丁寧でとても解り易く、ツアー参加者への体調等の配慮も充分だったと思います。

縄文杉：
ガイドさんの機転で橋から初日の出を見れました。晴れてはいても流石に１月なので、お昼のお弁当の時にガイドさんが提供してくださったお味噌汁はほっとする温かさでした。

太鼓岩：
前日は３グループ７名でしたが、この日は我が家だけで、実質プライベートツアーになりました。トレッキング以外の話題で盛り上がったりと、２日連続でガイドをしていただけると打ち解けて長い道のりもあっという間でした。

また屋久島にくる機会があったなら、是非同じガイドさんにお願いしたいです。例えば、２回目以降の参加者にはガイドさん指名システムがあったらいいなと思いますが、、。屋久島道の駅観光さん検討して下さい！

It was a sightseeing tour by taxi, and the driver's explanations were easy to understand, which made my wife satisfied. The fare was reasonable, and we were able to fully enjoy Yakushima. We will use this service again when we visit Yakushima next time.

タクシ－での観光でした、ドライバ－さんの説明が分かりやすく妻も満足していました、料金も手ごろで屋久島を堪能出来ました、、再度、屋久島に行く時は利用します。

It was quite physically challenging for someone like me who lacks exercise, but the sense of accomplishment was amazing! The guide and the staff were also wonderful, and I had a fantastic time. Thank you very much.

運動不足の私には体力的にはかなりキツかったですが、達成感は最高でした！
またガイドさんや関係者の方々も良い方で素晴らしい時を過ごすことができました。ありがとうございました。

Thanks to the veteran guide, I was able to reach Jomon Sugi with peace of mind!! Thank you very much＾＾

ベテランのガイドさんによるガイドで、安心して縄文杉までたどり着けました！！
ありがとうございました＾＾

I experienced trekking in Shiratani Unsuikyo during my first visit to Yakushima, and thanks to the guide accompanying us, we were able to hike at a comfortable pace. The guide also provided explanations about the highlights at each point, which made the trekking even more enjoyable.

初めての屋久島観光で白谷雲水峡トレッキングを体験しましたが、ガイド同行のおかげで余裕あるペースで登山できました。またガイドさんから各ポイントで見所について説明があり、よりトレッキングを楽しめました。

I was anxious that this might be my last year to take on the challenge due to my age, but the weather was clear, the guide was attentive, and the people in the group I went with were kind. It was great that I could walk all the way to Jomon Sugi without any issues. It was also fantastic to see Mount Miyanoura along the way. The hotel had delicious food, and I enjoyed the local dishes.

年齢から言って挑戦するのは今年が最後かなと不安でしたが、天気は快晴、ガイドさんも丁寧、一緒に行ったグループの人たちも親切、縄文杉まで、無事歩き続けられたのは良かったです。途中宮之浦岳も見られたのも最高でした。ホテルも料理がとても美味しく、地の物を楽しみました。

I was able to learn a lot about Yakushima! Since I don't have a driver's license, I was really grateful for the guided tour that showed us around Yakushima. It seemed to be a time when there were not many people, so I could take photos of the waterfalls and the Jomon Sugi without any worries. I was moved to be able to view the waterfall from such a close distance that I got splashed with water. The Yakuzaru and Yakushima deer were also very cute. The stories about why the Yakusugi trees are so large were really interesting too. Thank you very much!

屋久島についてたくさん知ることができました！運転免許を持っていないため、ガイド付きで屋久島を案内していただけるツアーは本当にありがたかったです。ちょうど人が少ない時期だったようで、滝や紀元杉の写真も心置きなく撮ることができました。水しぶきがかかるほどの距離で滝を眺めることができて感動しました。ヤクザル、ヤクシカもとても可愛かったです。屋久杉がなぜ大きいのかなどのお話もとっても面白かったです✨ありがとうございました！

At first, I thought about going without a guide, but I believe it was the right decision to have one! The guide informed us about pacing, restroom breaks, and rest times in advance, which motivated us with "just a little more to go!" 😊 It was also great that, even when traveling in a group, the guide could take photos of all of us together. The bus was direct, so there was no hassle of transfers, allowing us to relax both going and coming back! I slipped on a rock and injured myself right after we started heading back from seeing Jomon Sugi, but the guide quickly rushed over to help, and even in moments when I felt my spirits dropping, they encouraged me multiple times, making the descent enjoyable!

始めはガイドさんをつけないで行こうかと思っていましたがガイドつけて正解だったと思ってます！
ペース配分、トイレや休憩のタイミングを事前に教えてくれるのであともうちょっと！と励みになりました(^^)
複数で行ってもガイドさんがいたら全員で写真も撮ってもらえるのも良かったです☆
バスも直行だったので乗り換える手間もなく行きも帰りも車内でゆっくり出来ました！
縄文杉を見て折り返しが始まってすぐに岩で足を滑らせて怪我をしてしまいましたが、ガイドさんがすぐに駆け寄ってきてくれたし、テーション下がってしまいそうな場面で何度も声をかけてくれて楽しく下山することが出来ました！

I participated alone, but the guide was kind, and I made friends from Shanghai, so I had a great time! I highly recommend the Jomon Sugi tour!

一人での参加だったのですが、ガイドさんも親切で、上海からのお友達もでき、とても楽しめました！
縄文杉ツアーおすすめです♪

It was a tour that allowed me to experience the diverse nature of Yakushima in just one day. The guide was very knowledgeable, and I enjoyed interesting discussions ranging from the composition of the forests to the island's way of life.

屋久島をぐるりと一周して、多彩な自然を1日で感じることができたツアーでした。ガイドして下さった方の知識も豊富で、森林の構成の話から島の生活の話まで興味深く、楽しめました。
