I found Yuki's Instagram account by chance and contact him to guide me in Yakushima. He responded very promptly and recommended two amazing hikes that I'm very grateful for. He took care of me during the hikes, ensuring my safety, and even "rescued" my broken boot! He was also very encouraging the whole way when I was clearly struggling after ascending Tachudake. We had really nice chats while walking through the beautiful forests together. Please support Yuki when you visit Yakushima!

I did hike Mount Tachu with Yuki and I must say I was amazed by the beauty of the forest and blown away by the summit view! Yuki picked me up at my guest house and we saw deer and monkeys on the way up to the trail entrance. The hike was intense and fun, incredible trees on every corner. Hiking with Yuki was fun, he’s an experienced climber and will take the best photo of you as souvenir. He offered some matcha drink and coffee on top of the mountain, that was very comforting before heading...

ガイドが村松さんで良かった。 屋久島町観光協会に村松さんを紹介して頂きました。 77歳でしたが、快くガイドを受けてくださいました。 人の居ない静かで美しい苔の森を、ゆっくり案内してもらえて、とてもよかった。 私の体調の事も気遣って頂き、感謝しております。 ジビエ王国、本坊酒造さんやけい水産、地元の方しか分からないような鮮魚店にも連れていって頂き、屋久島ならではのお土産も沢山買えました。 一日を通して 色々な気配りをしてくださり、安心して 楽しく 過ごせました。 貸切のガイドさんにして本当に良かった。 このガイドさんなら、またお願いしたいと思いました。村松さん、ありがとう！
