Please enjoy an elegant time surrounded by flowers. Even those who are new to flower arrangements can participate with peace of mind. Anyone who likes flowers and is interested is welcome The finished arrangement is On the day You can take it home. The Flower Arrangement is a field of flower design that was introduced in Japan along with lifestyle changes in the early Meiji era. In a broad sense, it is a collective term for flower modeling excluding Kosurge and Bouquet. Many say that they are put on water-absorbing foams and decorated on containers. Unlike Ikebana, it can be used for various purposes such as interiors and gifts because it does not matter where and where it is. In Japan, where the seasons are clear, it was customary to enjoy seasonal flowers. As it becomes modern and there are fewer opportunities to feel the four seasons in daily life, you can enjoy the rich season through flowers.

Reservations are for 3 people or more, and are recommended for those who come to play with friends during spring break or summer vacation! We will meet and disperse at Naze, so it will be smooth to return to the hotel after the event! This plan was created because we wanted students coming to Amami to learn as much as possible about the creatures on the island. Amami Oshima is an island rich in biodiversity. Amami rabbits, Amami Ishikawa frogs, Amami woodcocks, etc. can only be seen in this place on earth. Most of the rare animals on Amami Oshima are nocturnal. Let's drive slowly through the forest roads and look for various animals! A certified guide will happily introduce you to Amami's animals!・Schedule ① Meet at Naze (Nagahama Minato Park) ② Arrival at the forest. Pre-departure briefing The guide will explain precautions and how to look for animals. ③Tour starts! Let's look for living things! I get so excited when I find a creature by myself! ④Experience the Amami Forest See the stars and moon on a sunny day, fireflies in the summer, and on a rainy day...? There is a way to enjoy each! ⑤ Disband at Naze I hope you have the best memories of your trip.・Tour start and end times The tour takes 2 hours, and the meeting time varies depending on the season. Pick-up and drop-off is available only for those staying in Naze. Please let us know if you are interested.・Others: This tour is not a private tour, and in some cases we may guide two groups at the same time. If you would like to have a private tour, you can choose this as an option.・Regarding consideration for animals We use lights to observe animals at night, but on our tours we use red lights, which are said to be difficult for animals to see, with the aim of reducing stress on animals. Some participants have commented that red is difficult to see, so during observation, please switch to white light only for the minimum amount of time necessary to take photos.

Amami Oshima was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site in 2021. As the reason for its registration is ``biodiversity,'' this island has many unique flora and fauna. Yuwandake is the most important place where many endemic species live. There are two routes to climb Mt. Yuwandake, but on this tour, you will walk up the wooden stairs from the 9th parking lot to the observation deck and shrine near the top. It's not a mountain trail, so it's easy to walk, and you can observe plants unique to Mt. Yuwandake along the way. (Anyone who has no problem walking or going up and down stairs in daily life can participate. The walk will take about 30 minutes each way.) On a clear day, you can see a wide view of Amami Oshima from the observation deck. However, as the name ``cloud forest'' suggests, Mt. Yuwandake has a unique environment where clouds and fog gather throughout the year, and there is a lot of rain. Therefore, if you're lucky you can see the view from the observation deck, but for me (the guide), the real view is on rainy days. We want you to enjoy this natural environment! After Mt. Yuwandake, we will stop at Materia Falls to take commemorative photos and have tea time. Date: Meet at Naze Sports Park in Amami City or pick up at hotel ↓ Transfer to Mt. Yuwandake (travel time varies depending on the pick-up location) Arrival at Mt. Yuwandake parking lot ↓ Arrive at Nature Walk Observation Deck/Shrine while observing flora and fauna ↓ Arrival at Shimoyama parking lot ↓ Transfer 15 minutes Materia Falls ↓ Arrive at hotel on the way back
