    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Amami Oshima Night Tour

    Q. Do you offer night tours even if it rains?

    Please check your preferred plan for details, as they vary depending on the guide in charge.

    If the tour is cancelled at the discretion of the guide due to weather conditions such as typhoons, you will be notified in advance.

    Some creatures prefer to be active on rainy days. The Amami rabbit is active even in the rain.

    Q. Is there a recommended time and date for night tours?
    There is no such thing as an ideal time to observe the creatures, as the time depends on natural conditions and environmental timing. The time of year varies depending on the creatures you wish to observe.
    Q. Can I observe the Amami rabbit in winter?
    The Amami rabbit can be observed throughout the year. Winter is the season when the Amami rabbit leaves its nest, so you are more likely to encounter the less cautious young animals.
    Q. Is it possible to take pictures with a camera flash during the night tour?
    In order to avoid stressing the wild animals as much as possible, we ask that you take pictures with your camera without flash.
    Q. Do you provide transportation for night tours on Amami Oshima?
    Pick-up and drop-off service is available for some tours. Please see below for details.
    Q. Can I go on a night tour of Amami Oshima by myself?
    We basically do not recommend mountain roads at night because there are few streetlights and many places where the path is difficult to find.
    A night tour with a professional guide is recommended, as he or she is familiar with the ecology of the animals and how to find them, not to mention safety management.
    Q. Is there any way to take a night tour of Amami Oshima at a reasonable price?
    If you choose the right conditions, you can participate at a relatively reasonable price.
    Select a Group Tour
    Avoid peak season (summer vacation and consecutive holidays)
    and it will be easier to find relatively inexpensive tours.
    However, it is recommended that you also check the guide's track record and safety measures rather than choosing on the basis of cheapness alone.
    Q. Where are the night tours held on Amami Oshima?
    It is mainly held in the nature-rich areas of northern to central Amami Oshima.
    Specific observation spots are determined by the guides based on animal appearances and weather conditions, so in most cases detailed locations are not disclosed.
    Q. Can I participate in the Amami Oshima night tour by myself?
    Single participants are welcome.

    The tour was guided, so we could participate safely even at night. I had hoped to see the Great Horned Owl, but I was able to see it several times without incident, and I was also able to see a Ryukyu long-eared owl. We were also able to hear the hoots of the Hooded Owl and the Himalayan Hare. It was a very enjoyable time and I am glad I joined the tour, as I was excited not knowing what I would see. It was also nice that they lent us flashlights.
