Wandering through the forests of Yakushima is certainly a pleasant experience, but without knowledge of the plants, fauna, ecology and the history of the forest then it becomes a blur of green. Wandering through the forest with a YES guide brings it all to life with detailed explanations from the smallest moss to the largest tree.
A YES forest tour makes for a very rewarding experience.
Guests wishing to book a fully informative forest tour should consider the Shiratani Unsuikyo Tour and the Yakusugi Land & Yamato Sugi Tour.
Please check the YES hiking gear recommendations. If you do not have the correct gear and don`t wish to carry heavy hiking boots on an international flight then YES can arrange hiking gear rental on Yakushima.
If you book a Yakushima tour with YES we will also be happy to RESERVE your Toppy & Rocket hydro-foil tickets to Yakushima.
