Yakusugi Land was included in the course. I assumed the entrance fee was included in the tour price, but it turned out to be an additional personal expense. I was surprised because the tour price itself didn't seem very reasonable.コースに入っていた屋久杉ランド。当然入場料はツアー料金に含まれていると思っていたのですが、まさかの個人負担。ツアー料金の設定も決してお得感は高くないのに、ビックリしました。

It was a tour with 11 people, so it felt like a regular sightseeing bus tour. Lunch included a set meal with fried flying fish. Since it was a trip without a rental car, it was good that we were able to circle Yakushima and visit the main tourist spots.11名でのツアーでしたので、普通の観光バスのツアーという感じでした。昼食はトビウオの唐揚げがついた定食でした。レンタカー無しの旅行だったので、とりあえずは屋久島を一周できて、主な観光スポットを廻れたので良かったです。

それぞれ案内される名所では必ず歩く。
坂道や山道も多いので足の悪い方や体力に自信のない方は要注意。
平日だったので参加人数が少数の為、お一人でもグループでも
バス内は全員が1人2席づつ座っていた。
添乗員からの説明や断りも一切無く、いつのまにか全員が1人2席。
お一人とグループでは金額が違うので、それが気にいらないという方は
やめたほうが良い。
ツアー自体は楽しかったし、トビウオ料理もとても美味しかった。

During my business trip to Kagoshima, I took advantage of the "one-day course." Thanks to the guide's thoughtful and flexible support, I was able to enjoy my time. I was also satisfied with the cost performance.鹿児島への出張の合間をみて「1日コース」を利用しました。ガイドさんが気を効かして臨機応変にご対応頂いた事もあって、楽しく時間を過ごせました。コスパ的にも満足です。

The guide was very nice, and we had a fun day. Since there were four participants this time, we traveled by taxi. I honestly thought it would be tough for three people to sit in the back seat all day, so I gave it four stars, but I was satisfied with the content of the tour. I think it would be difficult to visit everything on our own in one day, and the price was reasonable, so it was helpful to have someone take us around to various places.ガイドさんはとても良い方で、一日楽しく過ごせました。今回は参加人数が４人ということでタクシーでの移動でした。一日中、車での移動なので、後ろの席に３人座るのは正直、厳しいかなと思ったので星４つにしましたが、ツアーの中身については満足しています。自分たちで全部回ろうとしたら一日ではきついと思うくらい、料金もお手頃で色々連れて行ってもらえて助かりました。

My mother participated alone with a walker, and although it caused some trouble, it seems that the driver and the guide were very considerate, allowing us to complete the tour safely. Since Yakushima sightseeing mainly involves trekking and climbing, I consulted with VELTRA about whether my mother could participate, as she is unable to walk around. Thanks to their communication with the local team and the arrangements made in advance, we were able to join without any worries.

It was a course where I could enjoy Yakushima for a whole day, both in the morning and afternoon. However, it was a bit rushed, so I couldn't enjoy lunch leisurely, and I also couldn't take my time looking at souvenirs. I wished I had more time.午前、午後１日屋久島楽しめるコースでした。
ただ、バタバタ過ぎて、お昼ご飯はゆっくり頂けず、お土産もゆっくり見れず。

The guide provided information about island life, the land, and the mountains throughout our tour of the island, and they also helped us with taking photos, making for a fulfilling day. I regret that we couldn't complete a full circle around the island due to construction and missed visiting Inakahama.島内を回っている間ずっと島の生活についてや土地や山のことなどガイドがあり、写真撮影も協力していただき、充実した1日を過ごせました。

I was feeling unwell, but I was helped by being picked up right in front of the guesthouse. I was able to circle Yakushima in one day and see monkeys and deer, visit waterfalls, the banyan tree, Inakahama Beach, and the Jomon Sugi. Considering the meals included at this price, the cost performance is so good that I was worried if it was worth it. The meals were like a lunch set from a restaurant that also had a souvenir shop.

I finally got to take my long-awaited trip to Yakushima and participated in a bus tour to circle the island. Unfortunately, the western forest road was blocked, so the bus couldn't pass, which was disappointing. The driver and guide were both excellent. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful day.念願だった屋久島旅行　島一周がしたくてバスツアーに参加させていただきました。あいにく西部林道が崩れてバスが通れなくてざんねんでした。運転手さん件ガイドさん大変よかったです。おかげで楽しく一日すごせました。

It seems that the mode of transportation varies depending on the number of participants. This time, I was with one person for the whole day and two others in the afternoon, so we traveled by taxi. In the morning, we went around the island, and in the afternoon, we visited Yakusugi Land. The driver and guide shared a lot of information about the island, making it a day that exceeded my expectations and was truly enjoyable.

It was raining at Yakusugi Land, and the footing was poor, making it a bit challenging to walk. However, the path wasn't too steep, so sneakers or similar footwear were sufficient. Although I participated alone, the guide was kind, friendly, and humorous, taking photos for me here and there. Yakushima has not only forests but also many famous spots, and I had a wonderful time sightseeing in a relaxed manner throughout the day! Thank you very much. 参加人数によって移動手段が異なるようです。

The only disappointing thing was getting stuck in traffic due to the relay marathon.島のことが解りとても良かったです。

I was able to see the ancient cedar trees up close, and I could listen to a detailed explanation at Yakusugi Land. It was a bit cold at first because of the high altitude, but I stopped noticing it after walking for a while. We had to go up a narrow mountain path, but our experienced driver made me feel safe. I might have had trouble if I had rented a car!紀元杉も間近で見れたし、やくすぎランドでもゆっくり説明が聞けました。
標高が高いから最初は少し寒かったけど、ずーと歩いていたら感じなくなりました。

I was very grateful for the tour that covered places I wanted to visit but thought would be difficult to get to as a paper driver! During the travel, the guide talked about Yakushima in a fun and detailed way, so I never got bored. On the Seibu Forest Road, when we encountered Yakuzaru monkeys and deer, the driver slowed down or stopped, allowing us to take great photos! Thank you!ペーパードライバーで、行ってみたいけど回りにくいなと思ってた場所を網羅してくれるツアーでとても有り難かったです！

I was able to efficiently explore Yakushima, and the driver's guidance was great. The Yakusugi Land course was 30 minutes instead of the 50-minute course, which worked out better for me since I don't have much stamina. However, I would like to see improvements regarding the guide speaking without a mask and not addressing passengers who weren't wearing masks.効率よく屋久島を回れ、ドライバーさんのガイドもよかったです。
ヤクスギランドが50分コースでなく３０分コースでしたが、体力がないのでかえってよかったです。
