I visited many famous spots, such as the banyan trees and waterfalls. I was surprised to see many deer and monkeys along the roadside on the Western Forest Road. The abundance of nature was very healing. I would like to participate again when I visit Yakushima.ガジュマルや滝など多くの名所を見て回りました。西部林道では、鹿や猿が道端にたくさんいて驚きました。自然が多くて癒されました。また屋久島に行った時には参加したいです。

Yakushima tour of a lifetime

We came to Yakushima for a 3-night, 4-day trip with 7 members who had previously gone mountain climbing together. The group consists of members in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and the eldest is 79 years old. There was a strong desire among the members to visit Yakushima for the last time in their lives, which led to the planning of this tour. With both first-timers and those who had visited 2 or 3 times, we struggled to decide on a destination and ended up signing up for a one-day island tour of Yakushi… We came to Yakushima for a 3-night, 4-day trip with 7 members who had previously gone mountain climbing together.

We were surprised when the guide came to pick us up at the guesthouse. A foreign guide in Japan?? However, they provided attentive service and offered fascinating explanations about the mangrove trees that grow in seawater, the rare species, the beach where sea turtles lay their eggs, and we walked through the woods in light rain to see the thousand-year-old cedar at Shiratani Unsuikyo, where we had lunch. The Yakushima macaques, which are not afraid of humans, and the slightly smaller Yakushima deer were also introduced to us. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their first experience in Yakushima. Finally, we soaked in the ocean hot spring, creating wonderful memories. 私たちは以前に山登りをやっていたメンバー7名3泊4日で屋久島へ来ました。

The guide's explanations were accurate and fascinating, and we could change our destinations based on our preferences.

We saw the couple Aokou trees, whose roots are intertwined, and visited the Yakushima Lighthouse, which is inaccessible by bus. We also enjoyed the Hirauchi Seacoast Onsen, where bathing is allowed without underwear, as it springs from the sea. I was very satisfied with the experience. 専属のガイドさんの運転で、反時計回りで、島内観光をしました。ガイドさんの説明が的確で興味深く、行く場所も希望で変更出来ました。地理的に一番早く「新茶」が出荷できる屋久島の茶畑に立ち寄ったり、平家の落人が祀られている盛久神社、境内に２本のアコウの根と根が絡み合い合体している夫婦アコウを観光したり、バスでは行けない屋久島灯台、下着厳禁で入浴可能な、海の中から湧き出ている平内海中温泉も観光しました、大満足でした。
