We had an amazing day with Kei! Due to rainy season we were lucky enough to enjoy snorkeling all alone. Kei gave us all the information we needed and helped us practice and get extra confident with snorkeling. Even though it was cloudy and rainy, we were lucky enough to have no rain during our swimming time, and we could still see the fish and corals very clearly. Right at the beginning we saw a sea turtle and swam with it, it was amazing! We also saw many other fish, such as puffer fish, clownfish and sea snakes. Out of all the snorkeling we have done, this was by far the best! Kei was also recording it for us and edited the video for us, so now we will forever have a cool video souvenir! Amazing service. We finished the day in a public onsen bath, we had it all to ourselves when we were there, the perfect way to end the snorkeling trip!Thank you so much for an amazing memory Kei!

Kei-san was so friendly and welcoming. He showed us around his beautiful home island, giving us plenty of interesting information about it's plants and animals. He kept us comfortable and safe throughout, offered us tea and snacks, and we had a great day from start to finish. Massively recommend this tour.

Great snorkeling experience with Kei, although the conditions on Isso Beach are calm it was great to have a guide to point out fish species and turtles. Kei was friendly, professional and well organised. You even get video of your snorkeling trip.

Had a wonderful time river kayaking and snorkelling! The guide Kei-san was really friendly and even shared some facts about the island. Would definitely book with them again 🙂

We just enjoyed a wonderful 3 hours with Kei kajaking in the Mianoura river. It was very nice to learn about the clean water, Japanese culture, Princess Mononoke. We also enjoyed the coffee/tea break and wild berries at the riverbank. In the end, he also sent us a really cool video he made from us and our trip. We can highly recommend booking a tour with Kei.

We just enjoyed an amazing kajaking tour with Kei. He told us a lot about Yakushima, japanese tradition, language and food. We had a nice tea/coffee break on a sand bank where we could try some wild berries and collect smelling wood (teatreeoil).Thank you very much!

The best experience of my life! We were lucky enough to see 2 beautiful sea turtles. You got pick up from the hostel, drive to the beach, you wear a wetsuit and then the adventure begins! We were devided into 2 groups to extend the possibility to see hhe turtle, when the second group found the turtle our guide got a notification so we start swimming to them to see the turtles as well. Our guide was amazing, patient, trust-worthy, funny, her english was good and you could tell that she really loves and knows the ocean. You made my dream come true. Thank you for unforgettable memory!!
