It is quite difficult to make reservations and arrangements for cross-regional journey.
We are also familiar with local information which enables us to organize runs tours that crosses each region.
Walk the seven islands of TOKARA Archipelago: from north to south: Kuchino Shima, Nakano Shima, Taira Shima, Suwanose Shima, Akuseki Shima, Kodakara Shima, Takara Shima.
The TOKARA Archipelago is a chain of islands off southwestern Kyushu.
The archipelago has a total length of 160 km.
The islands belong to Kagoshima Prefecture and are part of the greater Ryukyu Islands chain that includes Okinawa.
This is the ultimate island trip to the Tokara archipelago.
Only twice regular weekly ferries connect the seven islands.
It is difficult to move smoothly from island to island, and it is difficult to travel individually in a short period of term.
In this tour, we chartered a high-speed boat and realized a compact and reasonable schedule.
Tokara Archipelago belong to a volcanic belt called Kirishima.
Unique nature beauty are created by volcanic activity such as Mount Otake(979m) on Nakano shima, which is also known as “Tokara Fuji”, and Otake(796m) on Suwanose jima island,
Takara jima island which is considered a treasure island, and Kotakara Jima Island are formed by uplifting corals.
You can walk around each island and explore the nature beauty.
You also can enjoy primitive hot spring bathing.
At the border between the temperate zone and the subtropical zone, the Tokara Islands have a long tradition of traditional food culture and cuisine.
Also, because it is an intersection between the mainland and the Ryukyu region, unique traditional culture is one of the highlights.
Meet the unique flora and fauna of Tokara
The Tokara Archipelago is also a biogeographical boundary, and constitutes a diverse ecosystem not found elsewhere.
