The guide's talk wasn't very interesting, and since we were moving in a group, I felt like I had to take many breaks and wanted to proceed at my own pace. I was also disappointed because the price was high. It was a course that could have easily been done without a guide, which made me feel even more that way.
ガイドさんの話があまり面白くなかったのと複数で動くのでしょうがないですが休みが多くて自分のペースで進みたいと思ってしまいました。値段も高いのでがっかりです。ガイド無しでも全然行けるコースだったので尚更そう思いました。

This time it was a challenge for the whole family! As the rain continued and a typhoon approached, our veteran guide said, "The rain-soaked Jomon Sugi and the snow-covered Jomon Sugi are equally mystical, so you are very lucky." With that remark, our trekking began. We walked endlessly along the trolley path, and once we finally finished it, the real mountain trail started!
I wondered if my youngest daughter, who is in elementary school, would be okay as we started walking, and after a tough three hours, we finally arrived at Jomon Sugi! Considering the well-maintained path we took, I couldn't help but think about how the first person to discover Jomon Sugi made it here. The mountain trail was truly thought-provoking. I was simply amazed by the scale of it all. The guide said, "Next time, please come on a snowy day! It's better than a sunny day!" With that, our descent began. The return trip was harder than the way up! Everyone's knees were shaking. (laughs) Next time, I definitely want to go on a snowy day.
今回家族全員でのチャレンジでした!雨が降り続き、台風が近づく中でベテランのガイドさんが一言…「雨の縄文杉と雪の縄文杉が甲乙付けがたいくらい神秘的なんで非常にラッキーですよ」と。その一言からトレッキングがスタートしました。トロッコ道を延々と歩き、やっとトロッコ道が終わったらそこからが本当の山道でした!
小学生の三女でも大丈夫かなと思いながら歩き始めて、やっとの思い3時間強で遂に縄文杉に到着!整備された道を上ってきたことを考えると初めて縄文杉を見つけた人は此処までどうやってきたのかな?と考えさせられるほどの山道でした。とにかくスケールの大きさにただただ感動でした。ガイドさんは「次は雪の日に来て下さい!晴れてる日よりも雪の日です!」この一言をスタートに下山が始まりました。行きよりも帰りの方がハード!全員膝がガクガクでした。(笑)今度は、是非雪の日に行きたいと思います。
Dear Mayu Papa,
Thank you for your hard work during the Jomon Sugi trekking the other day. It was tough in the rain, but the weather improved a bit on the way back, and we were able to enjoy a wonderful day. It was truly amazing to hike with such a close-knit family!
Please don't let this discourage you, and do come to Yakushima again! Next time, let's stay in the Anbo area and have a drink together!

My 61-year-old self and my daughter, both lacking in exercise, participated in our long-awaited Jomon Sugi trekking. We were worried about our stamina and pacing over the long route, so we didn't hesitate to request a private guide. Our guide, Mr. Yabuta, provided meticulous support from early morning until evening, allowing us to enjoy the trekking without any anxiety. You carried a much larger backpack than us, and I’m sure it contained warm miso soup, a pot for coffee, and various equipment to prepare for any unexpected situations we might encounter! Thanks to you, we were able to descend safely without any issues, and that sense of security was invaluable! Thank you!!
61歳のワタシと娘、運動不足二人組で念願の縄文杉トレッキングに参加しました。体力はもちろん、長い行程のペース配分が心配で、迷わずプライベートガイドをお願いしました。ガイドさんは早朝から夕方まで常に段取り良くきめ細かくサポートして下さったので、不安無くトレッキングを楽しむことが出来ました。私達よりずっと大きなリュックを背負ったスレンダーな籔田さん、貴女のリュックには温かい味噌汁とコーヒーの為のポットと、きっと私達の不測の事態に備えた数々の装備品が入っていたんですよね!おかげさまで何事もなく下山出来ましたが、その安心感は大きかったです!ありがとー‼
This is Yabuta, your guide for the day. Thank you for participating in the Jomon Sugi trekking the other day. Despite the rain due to the typhoon, I'm glad we were able to descend safely. Thank you for your review; it is encouraging. I will continue to do my best. Please come visit Yakushima again.

This time, I participated in a half-day trekking tour of Shiratani Unsuikyo, which was highly recommended. I almost had to cancel the tour due to a misunderstanding about the ferry schedule, but since we were the only participants, they adjusted the schedule and we were able to leave early.
The guide seemed to be conversing with the trees, leaves, moss, rocks, and water as we walked, which allowed us to naturally blend in and made the challenging journey feel pleasant. I learned a lot about geography and history, and the guide was very considerate, giving us space to enjoy nature while also taking great photos at the scenic spots. It was a wonderful experience that made me reflect deeply on living in harmony with nature. I am very satisfied! I would love to participate in this tour again. Thank you!
今回は半日白谷雲水峡〜太鼓判のトレッキングツアーに参加しました。
フェリーの時間を勘違いしておりツアーを泣く泣くキャンセルするところでしたが、たまたま参加者が私たちだけだったため早く出発するなど調整していただけました。
ガイドさんは樹、葉、苔、岩、水と会話しながら歩いているようでこちらも自然と溶け込めて険しい道のりも心地よく感じました。
地理や歴史などたくさん勉強できましたし、私たちが自然に癒されている時間はそっとしてくださったり、写真スポットではバッチリ映えるような写真を撮ってくださるなどすごく出来たガイドさんでした。自然と共に生きていくという深いことを自然と考えさせられたいい時間でした。大満足です!またこちらのツアー参加したいです。ありがとうございました。

I participated with my fifth-grade child.
The round trip of 22 kilometers was indeed long.
I don't think we could have completed it without the guide.
Along the way, we took many photos and received explanations about the history,
which made the trekking enjoyable even amidst the challenges.
The miso soup during lunch warmed my heart.
Since it was early in the morning, it was convenient to reach the Arakawa Trailhead without transfers.
小5の子どもと2人で参加しました。
往復22キロの道のりはやっぱり長い。
ガイドさんがいなければ完歩はできなかったと思います。
道すがら、写真をたくさん撮ってもらい歴史も説明してもらい、
つらい中にも楽しくトレッキングできました。
昼食時の味噌汁は心までほっこり温まりました。
早朝なので荒川登山口まで乗り換えなしも便利でした。

We participated as a couple in our 50s. Since we have some hiking experience, we were unsure whether to hire a guide, but we decided to request a private guide to enhance our trekking experience. Our guide, Mr. Osawa, was very knowledgeable and explained a lot about the history of the cedar industry in Yakushima, as well as the plants and animals, making the monotonous trolley path enjoyable to walk. On the mountain trail afterward, he maintained a pace that was just right for us, allowing us to reach Jomon Sugi without feeling exhausted. We were moved when we encountered Jomon Sugi. For lunch, he chose a quiet spot and even provided miso soup, allowing us to enjoy our meal at a leisurely pace. On the way back, my husband started to feel pain in his feet, but the guide frequently checked on him as he walked behind us. This time, we had a very fulfilling trekking experience by using the guided tour. Thank you very much.
50代夫婦での参加でした。登山経験があるのでガイドさんを頼むか迷いましたが、トレッキングをより楽しむためにプライベートガイドをお願いしました。ガイドの大沢様は知識が豊富で屋久島の杉産業の歴史、植物、動物などたくさん説明してくださり単調なトロッコ道を楽しく歩くことができました。その後の山道でも私たちにちょうどいいペース配分で、ぐったりすることもなく縄文杉に着くことができました。縄文杉に出会えた時は感動しました。昼食は静かなスペースを選んでくれ、さらにお味噌汁も提供していただき、ゆっくりと食事をとることができました。帰路に主人の足が痛くなってしまったのですが、頻繁に後ろを歩いている主人の様子を気にかけてくれていました。今回、ガイドツアーを利用して大変充実したトレッキングを楽しむことができました。ありがとうございました。
Thank you for your hard work on the Jomon Sugi trekking.
It was a long journey, but we were blessed with good weather, and trekking with such a lovely couple made for an enjoyable day as a guide. Thank you very much. Yakushima has many attractions besides Jomon Sugi, so if you have the opportunity, please consider visiting again in a different season.
P.S. I ended up buying a peeler for peeling carrots after all (laughs).

I never expected the trek to Jomon Sugi to be that tough… Anyway, it was just four girls being a bit naive (ー ー;)

All thanks to Jennifer.
In the pouring rain, she set up a tarp for our lunch while getting completely soaked herself, and even treated us to miso soup… it warmed our chilled bodies.
With Jennifer's support and encouragement, we were able to see Jomon Sugi safely!\(^o^)/

It seems that the availability of rental items depends on the area where you stay, and since I didn't know which area of Yakushima my hotel was in, I submitted the hotel name for the request. I thought I would receive a response via email about whether I could rent the items, but I never heard back. I also wanted a different route than the one listed, but there was no response to that either. A few days ago, I decided to call, and they told me that I couldn't rent from my accommodation. When I asked what I should do, they said, "Find it yourself." I had made the reservation a month in advance... When I asked why there was no reply, they said, "It's written on the website, so there's no need to contact you." I thought they could at least introduce me to somewhere else. When I inquired about the reverse route, I was told, "We still don't know. It might not be implemented." I was planning to switch to another tour if the reverse route was not available, but the response a few days ago that they didn't know was very troubling.
In the end, they said, "We will implement the reverse route," but there was another issue on the day of the tour. Due to the location of the hotel I was staying at, I was placed in the regular route team instead of the reverse route team. Moreover, this guide had absolutely no hospitality. There was no time to take photos, and even when I stumbled and was crouching down, they didn't come back to help. They were just a mere guide who only cared about time and went ahead without waiting for anyone. They did provide explanations as a guide, but their voice was too quiet, and they spoke without waiting for the last person, making it almost impossible to hear.
Additionally, due to the rain, we ended up not going to Shiratani Unsuikyo and instead had the regular Jomon Sugi tour, but the price remained the same. It was truly the worst tour. I strongly recommend avoiding this company.
レンタル品が泊まる地域によって借りれたり、借りれなかったりするようで、今回泊まるホテルが、屋久島のどの地域かわからないので、ホテル名を入れて申請。メールでレンタル品が借りれるかどうか返事がくるかと思えば一切来ない。また、記載のルートととは別ルートを希望していたが、その返事も来ない。仕方がないので数日前にこちらから電話をしてみたところ、今回の宿泊先では貸してもらえないとの返事。ではどうしたら?と聞けば「自分で探してくれ」とのこと。1ヶ月も前に予約しているのに・・。なぜ返信が無いのかと聞くと「HPに書いているから連絡する必要なし」という言い方だった。せめてどこか紹介してくれればいいのにと思った。また、逆ルート希望についても問い合わせしたところ、「まだわからない。実施されないかもしれない」との返事。逆ルートがダメなら他のツアーにするつもりだったが、数日前にどちらかわからないとの返事には非常に困った。
最終的には「逆ルート実施します」となったが、当日またひと悶着。泊っているホテルの場所の加減で、逆ルートチームではなく、通常ルートチームに組み込まれた。しかもこのガイドにホスピタリティー全くなし。写真を撮る時間は無いは、コケてうずくまっていても助けに戻ってくることもない。時間だけを気にして自分だけが先に行ってしまう単なる道案内人。一応ガイドとして説明するが、歯が抜けていることと声が小さいことと、一番最後の人を待たないで話しするので殆ど聞き取れない。
しかも雨で結局、白谷雲水峡には行かず、通常の縄文杉ツアーとなり、価格はそのまま。
本当に最悪なツアーでした。
この会社は絶対やめた方が良い。
Dear Nakai,
Thank you for sharing your experience.
First, regarding the rental, we are currently improving our system to clearly indicate which areas are available for rental and which are not at the time of request.
As for the reverse route request, please note that Shiratani Unsuikyo may become inaccessible due to heavy rain and rising water levels, so we can only determine this on the day of the tour, based on the guide's judgment. This information is also clearly stated on our website.
We will investigate and provide guidance on the hospitality of our guides. Additionally, please be aware that due to weather conditions, it may not be possible to visit Jomon Sugi or Shiratani Unsuikyo. This is also mentioned on our website.
Finally, we sincerely appreciate your feedback and aim to transform from "definitely not recommended" to "a company you can recommend."
中井 様
体験談の投稿、ありがとうございます。
まずレンタルの件ですが、現在依頼する時に、借りれる地域・借りれない地域が分かるように改善しております。
逆ルートの希望についてですが、白谷雲水峡が大雨が降ると増水で渡れない場合があるので、当日にならないと分からないので、当日ガイドの判断になります。
これもホームページにしっかり記載しております。
ガイドのホスピタリティについては、ガイドに調査の上、指導致します。
そしてこのコースは、天候により、縄文杉か白谷雲水峡に行けない場合があります。このこともホームページに記載しております。
最後に、お客様のご意見を真摯に受け止め、「絶対やめた方が良い」から「お勧めな会社」を目指していきたいと思っております。

During my 2-night, 3-day trip to Yakushima, I participated in an early morning tour to make the most of my time. We departed at 5:30 AM, and it was cool while climbing, with few people around, making it easier to ascend. The sunrise illuminated the scenery beautifully. The weather was clear, and the view from Taiko Rock was stunning. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and we enjoyed fun quizzes along the way. I had watched the movie "Princess Mononoke," but my memory was vague, so I want to watch it again carefully when I get back.
今回2泊3日の屋久島旅行で、時間を有効的に使いたいというのもあって早朝ツアーに参加しました。朝5時半出発でしたが、登るときは涼しくて、人も少なくかったので登りやすく、朝日が差して景色もきれいでした。晴天で太鼓岩からの景色も絶景でした。ガイドさんの説明はわかりやすくて、登りの途中クイズなどして楽しく登ることができました。もののけ姫の映画は観ていましたが記憶が曖昧だったので帰ってもう一度じっくり観たいと思います。

I wanted to try trekking for the first time in Yakushima, so I signed up for the early morning trek at Shiratani Unsuikyo. Although it was early, with a pickup from the hotel just after 5 AM, there were few people around, and the air was clear, allowing me to fully enjoy nature. Additionally, our guide walked slowly while explaining various things, including plants and trees that are believed to have inspired Studio Ghibli films, which made the trekking experience enjoyable. We finished before noon, so I was able to make good use of the afternoon as well, and I am very satisfied.

We, who usually do not exercise at all, felt unsure about our physical strength and worried that we wouldn't be able to keep up with others, so we were looking for a tour that offered a private guide and a unique experience with a one-night, two-day stay in a cabin or tent when we discovered this tour and signed up immediately.
As we had feared, we were about two hours late, but we entered the Shiratani Unsuikyo and were able to reach Jomon Sugi safely. Even though we were late, there was no reduction in break times, explanations, or photo opportunities, and along the way, our guide shared various stories about Yakushima's history. It was definitely the right choice to have a dedicated guide!
It seems that whether we stayed in a cabin or a tent was on a first-come, first-served basis, and since we couldn't get into the cabin, we ended up camping in a tent. However, they set everything up for us, including the tent in the heavy rain and dinner, which was incredibly attentive service.
The meals we had in the mountains, which we were looking forward to, were so authentic and delicious that we almost forgot we were in the mountains. They were hearty and truly comforting for our tired bodies.
If you are considering participating in the tour, I highly recommend it. While it is possible to climb individually, you might only end up with the fact that you climbed to Taiko Rock and saw Yakusugi, without noticing the various plants and animals native to Yakushima. We also got excited when we discovered a bright red mushroom that looked like it came out of a picture book, and we were surprised by the small cicada shells. There are many fun things hidden in the mountains besides Jomon Sugi. Since you are making the effort to travel such a long distance, I think you will enjoy it even more by climbing with a knowledgeable guide.
Thank you very much, Mr. Fujiyama (Yukki) and Mr. Shiramizu. It was a long hike in the rain, but I feel like we laughed a lot. When we visited the shop you recommended, we had new encounters, and our trip to Yakushima became a wonderful memory, not just the climbing. Yakushima in the rain was fun, but I want to climb Yakushima in the sunshine next time. (laughs) I would like to ask for your help again then.
Also, if possible, could I please get the data for the photos you took? I couldn't use my digital camera much due to the rain, and the smartphone photos turned out blurry. There's no rush, so thank you in advance!

心配していた通り、予定より2時間ほど遅れていましたが、白谷雲水峡から入山し、無事縄文杉までたどり着くことができました。遅れているからといって休憩や説明の時間、写真を撮る時間を削るといったことは無く、道中には屋久島の歴史等いろいろな話をしてくださいました。やはり専属ガイドにして正解でした‼
小屋泊になるかテント泊になるかは先着順のようで、私たちは小屋に入れずにテント泊になりましたが、大雨の中のテント設営や夕ご飯など全て整えてくださり、かなり至れり尽くせりです。
楽しみにしていた山中でのご飯も、山の中にいるのを忘れるくらい本格的でおいしく、ボリュームもあり、疲れた身体に沁みわたる美味しいご飯でした。
もし、ツアーに参加するか迷っているのであれば、是非参加をおすすめします。個人で登ることも可能ですが、太鼓岩まで登った、屋久杉を見たという事実だけになってしまい、屋久島に自生している動植物等に気づけなかったりすると思います。私たちも、絵本で出てきそうな真っ赤な笠のキノコを発見してテンション上がったり、セミの抜け殻が小さくてびっくりしたり、縄文杉以外にも山には楽しい事が隠れていたりします。せっかく遠路はるばる行くのであれば、山に精通しているガイドさんと登ると一層楽しめるかと思います。
藤山さん(ゆっきーさん)、白水さん、大変お世話になりました。雨の中の長時間の登山となりましたが、たくさん笑った気がします。紹介していただいたお店に行ってみたら、新たな出会いがあったり、登山だけでなく屋久島旅行が素敵な思い出となりました。雨の屋久島も楽しかったですが、次は晴れの屋久島に登りたいです。笑 その際はまたお願いしたいです。
あと、可能でしたら撮っていただいた写真のデータを頂けませんでしょうか。雨であまりデジカメを使えなかった&スマホの写真はブレブレだったりで…。急ぎませんのでどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
Dear AYU,
Thank you for your feedback.
Although the morning of the day was cloudy, the weather turned into a storm in the afternoon... It was quite an exhilarating experience camping in the tent, to be honest, that storm was tough (laughs).
Including that, it was the best two days enjoying the nature of Yakushima! Next time, let's tackle Mount Miyanoura! It should be an even more enjoyable mountain journey than this time!!!
I apologize for the delay in sending the photos, I will send them to you! Please wait for me!
AYU様
ご評価いただきありがとうございます。
当日朝は曇り空だったのに、午後からは嵐の様な天気。。。
かなり刺激的なテント泊でしたね、正直いってあの嵐はしんどかった(笑)
それも含めて屋久島の自然を満喫できた最高の二日間でした!
次回は宮之浦岳いっちゃいましょう!
今回よりももっともっと楽しい山旅になるはず!!!
写真遅くなって申し訳ありません、送りますね!
待っててくださーい!

It was a three-day trip to Yakushima starting from Marine Day in July! On the second day, I wanted to fully enjoy the nature of Yakushima and considered joining the Jomon Sugi tour, but I wasn't confident in my physical strength or stamina, so I participated in the shorter Shiratani Unsuikyo and Taiko Rock tour.
The tour we joined started early in the morning, so we were able to return by lunchtime and could even participate in activities on the final day. We were very satisfied as we could effectively use our time in the afternoon.
Taiko Rock was our final destination, but there were many attractions along the way, and the guide made regular stops for breaks, allowing us to enjoy the tour even though we usually lack exercise. The guide was a local born in Yakushima, with extensive knowledge of the mountains and plants, and also shared information about delicious local restaurants. They were well-versed in Studio Ghibli as well and pointed out various spots that reminded us of anime characters.
I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to visit both Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo, or for those who want to make the most of their final day! It was a fantastic tour with a great guide, and we were very satisfied!
7月の海の日から3日間の屋久島旅行でした!
2日目に屋久島の自然を満喫することをしようと思い、縄文杉ツアーを検討していたのですが体力、気力ともに自信がなく、歩く時間の短い白谷雲水峡・太鼓岩ツアーに参加。
私達が参加したツアーは、早朝スタートだったのでお昼には帰ってこれて、最終日に参加することもできるとのこと…
私達も午後からの時間を有効に使うことが出来て大満足^ ^
太鼓岩が最終目的地ですが、途中沢山の見所があり、定期的に休憩も取ってくださるので普段運動不足の私達でも楽しんで参加することができました。
ガイドの方は、屋久島生まれの方で山や植物の知識も豊富ですが地元の美味しいお店などについても詳しく教えてくださいます。
ジブリについても詳しく、色々な場所でアニメのキャラクターを彷彿とさせるポイントを教えて下さいます(*⁰▿⁰*)
縄文杉と白谷雲水峡どちらも行ってみたい方や、最終日まで満喫したい方などに大変オススメのツアーです!
とっても良いガイドさんで、大満足のツアーでした!

It was a long, long journey to Yakusugi, but the people in my group were all very nice, and we were able to encourage each other to reach our destination. The guide was a good person, but... he didn't wait for people and just kept moving ahead. He didn't seem to care about participants who were struggling to walk due to cramps, while other group guides were offering advice and support. It's disappointing because ensuring safety should be part of a guide's job. Other than that, it was very good.
屋久杉まで長い長い道のりでしたが一緒のグループの方々がとてもよい人ばかりで励ましながら到着できました。
ガイドさんはいい人でしたが、、、あまり人を待たずどんどん行ってしまうし、足をつって歩けない担当の参加者もお構いなしで声をかけることなくどんどん行ってしまいました。(他のグループのガイドさんが足を伸ばしたり、アドバイスをくれていました)
安全にガイドすることが仕事であるはずなのに残念でした。
それ以外はとてもよかったです。

I participated in the morning course. We went around the island in a clockwise direction, visiting beautiful spots like waterfalls and beaches that are hard to reach without a car, and we encountered wild monkeys and deer on the west side of the island.
On Yakushima, the roads on the east side seem wide and easy to drive, but the west side has challenging routes for beginner drivers (there's not enough width for two cars to pass, so one has to pull over to the side). This tour was extremely helpful for us since we couldn't drive.
午前中のコースで参加しました。
島をぐるりと時計周りで一周し、美しい滝な浜など、車が無いとなかなか行けない観光スポットをまわってくれ、島の西側では野生の猿や鹿にも遭遇します。
屋久島は島の東側は道も広く運転しやすそうですが、西側は運転初心者には厳しいコース(すれ違いできる幅がなく、どちらかが道の端に避ける必要あり)のため、車の運転ができない私達にとっては非常に助かったツアーでした。

The trekking guided by the old man to the Forest of Mononoke was amazing. The healing forest with Yakusugi trees, the lush plants like ferns and moss, and the sight of monkeys, deer, snakes, and small birds right in front of me were all incredible. I filled my water bottle with cold stream water and spring water—what a refreshing experience! Everything I saw felt like a different world. It turned out to be a very satisfying trip to Yakushima. By the way, I’m also an old man (laughs). The next day, I was left with the pleasant aftereffects of muscle soreness all over my body, making it a memorable journey.
もののけの森までガイドのじっちゃんに案内されて最高のトレッキングでした。屋久杉をはじめとする癒される森林、シダ、コケなどの植物群生、サル、シカ、ヘビ、小鳥などを目の前に見たり、冷たい沢水、湧き水を水筒に汲んでゴクリ!見るものすべて別世界でした。大満足の屋久島になりました。ちなみに私もじいさんです(笑)、次の日は全身の筋肉痛の余韻!?で気持ちいい思い出の旅になりました。

The tour guide's explanations and responses were very polite, and they paid great attention to all the participants, making for an excellent guide. I participated alone as a woman, but I had a lot of fun trekking from departure to return. I would like to go again soon, and I thought I would like to use this service again.
ツアーガイドさんの説明や対応がとても丁寧で参加者全員の様子をとても良く見ていて凄くいいガイドさんでした。
女1人での参加でしたが出発から帰りまでとても楽しくトレッキングできました。
また近々行きたいです。その際はまた利用したいとおもいました。

They picked me up in the morning and took me to the trailhead to start the hike! Since a typhoon was approaching and there was fog, I wasn't sure if I would be able to see Jomon Sugi, so I decided to head straight to Jomon Sugi without taking photos at other spots first! Thanks to that decision, I was able to see Jomon Sugi clearly, and I thought it was great that I made a reservation because I wouldn't have been able to see it without the guide. The guide was also very kind, and I am grateful from start to finish!
朝迎えにきてくれて登山口まで行き登山開始!台風が来ていて霧が出て縄文杉が観れるかわからないということだったので、まず初めに他の場所では写真は撮らずに縄文杉まで向かいました!その判断のおかげで縄文杉をしっかり見ることができ、ガイドさんと一緒じゃ無かったら見れなかったと思うと予約してよかったなと思いました。またガイドさんもとても優しく最初から最後まで感謝しかないです!

While looking at various tour reviews, I participated again with Veltra. The actual guide was a person named W from Kumage Transport, which is commissioned by Michi no Eki Kankou. When we arrived on the island, we were supposed to make a confirmation call, and the guide was supposed to call us the day before, but I was in the mountains until late in the evening the day before, so I couldn't connect. Just when I was worried about what to do, the guide kindly called the accommodation directly and connected us.
The guide W who came on the day was quite elderly, which made me a bit anxious, but that worry was unfounded. He had incredible leg strength, knowledge about plants, endurance, a wonderful personality, and a wealth of information about nature and the culture of Yakushima, making it feel like I was walking with a "sage." He patiently taught us, city dwellers who usually don't hike (in our 30s and 60s), how to walk, how to exert ourselves, and how to use trekking poles. (I apologize for thinking he was elderly! We were lacking in every aspect compared to him...)
His personality was very flexible and warm, and his laughter, "ho ho ho," truly resembled that of a "sage."
Now that I'm back and writing this, I want to go into the mountains with W again. I had never done trekking before, but I truly had an amazing experience. I am sincerely grateful.
様々なツアーの評価を見ながら今回もveltraさんで参加しました。実際のガイドさんは道の駅観光さん(が委託している熊毛運輸さん?)のWさんという方でした。島についたら確認電話をし、前日にガイドから確認電話がくるというものでしたが、前日夕方遅くまで山にいたため、電話は繋がらず。どうしようと困っていたらガイドさんが宿に直接電話をかけて繋いでくださり助かりました。
当日いらしたガイドのWさんはかなりご高齢の方で少し不安になりましたが、そんな不安なんのその。とんでもない脚力、植物の情報力、持久力、お人柄、自然への情報量、そして屋久島という島の文化などまるで「仙人」と歩いているような感覚でした。普段山を歩かない都会っ子の我々(30代と60代)にも丁寧に歩き方や力の入れ方、ストックの使い方を教えてくださいました。(ご高齢!なんて思って申し訳ありません!私たちの方が全てにおいて劣りすぎていました。。)
お人柄も非常に柔軟で温かく、「ほっほっほ」と笑う笑い方はまさに「仙人様」でした笑。
今、帰ってきて、これを書いていますが、またWさんと山に入りたいです。トレッキングなんてしたことのない私でしたが、本当に本当に素晴らしい経験をさせていただきました。心から感謝します。

I participated while a typhoon was approaching. I think it's quite rare to experience walking in the rain, but once you get used to it, it's no big deal. I seriously recommend Gore-Tex products. Even in heavy rain, the inside was only damp from sweat.
Thanks to the guide's extensive knowledge, I received interesting information throughout the tour. Thank you!
台風が迫ってきている最中に参加しました。
雨に打たれて歩く経験はなかなか無いと思いますが、慣れればへっちゃらでした。
Gore-Tex製品を本気で推奨します。土砂降りでも中は汗で湿ってるだけでした。
ガイドさんの豊富な知識で、常に面白い案内をいただきました。ありがとうございます!
Dear Daegu,
Thank you for participating in the Jomon Sugi trekking yesterday.
It was truly a tremendous rain on the day of the tour; I don't think many people have the experience of walking in such heavy rain. Let's walk the mountains of Yakushima together under clear skies next time!
We look forward to seeing you again!

昨日は縄文杉トレッキングへのご参加ありがとうございました。
ツアー当日は本当にすごい雨でしたね、あの大雨の中歩くなんてなかなか経験出来ないと思います。

I participated in the Yakuzaru tour in the afternoon. I was worried about joining alone, but the guide and the other participants were all nice people, and I had a great time! It was recommended for me since I had little knowledge about Yakusugi, as I could learn while being guided. During my tour, I was also able to see Yakushima deer and Yakuzaru from the vehicle. I'm glad I participated!
やくざる号、午後ツアーに参加しました。ひとりでの参加で心配してましたが、ガイドさんや他のツアー参加者の方達も良い人達で楽しかったです!
ガイドしてもらいながら、まわれるので屋久杉について知識が少なかった自分にとってオススメでした。私が巡った時は、ヤクシカやヤクザルも車中から見ることが出来ました。参加してよかったです!

The rain from the previous day had nourished the plants thoroughly, and the sunlight shining through the water droplets resting on the moss was a beauty like a miracle.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Ultimately, the decision to have a guide or not is up to the customer. If you prefer to walk at your own pace, I recommend climbing all the mountains without a guide next time. On Yakushima, half of the climbers go with a guide while the other half do not.
体験談の投稿、ありがとうございます。
ガイドを付ける付けないは最終的にはお客様の判断になります。
自分のペースで歩きたい場合は、次回から全ての山をガイド無しで登ることをお勧めします。
屋久島も登山者の半分はガイド付きで半分はガイド無しです。
