We do not have good public transportation system in Sado like JR.
Until quite recently, We were not allowed to drive cars when we were the tour guides.
The government revised laws and ordinances lately. We, tour guides, can drive our own cars and rental cars for tourists, now.
Taxi is safe and comfortable but it's fare is expensive,7000 yen an hour.
Rental car fare is approximately 10000 yen including full car insurance for 8 hours. If you are afraid of driving a car in Sado, I will drive it.

“Excellent guide and respect towards his dedication! ”
Kei-san is an experienced and excellent guide that led us to beautiful places in Sado Island. His strong command of English led us to a deeper appreciation of the Tokis on the island, which I would have completely missed if I had gone to the conservatory on my own. He also strongly recommended us to witness a local festival at a shrine which was such a treat! Lastly, at his old age, he continues to attend English lessons on a weekly basis to enjoy what he does best - to show to the world what Sado has to offer! Highly recommend!

“Above and Beyond”
Cannot begin to recommend Keiichi-san highly enough! I came to the island with the a fairly narrow range of interests and he went out of the way, not only to meet all of my needs, but also to enlist others on the island who had direct knowledge of my field. We spent two amazing days together, exploring some rarely looked at aspects of Sado Island culture. He was prompt, friendly, organized, enthusiastic, and a general delight to be with the entire time! I am hoping to come back to the island in a year or so, and will certainly request his services again. Arigatou gozaimashitta, Keiichi-san!

“Informative and friendly guided tour ”
Kei is a very kind man born and raised in Sado island and very happy to share his information about the island with visitors. He took us to the proposed places for the half day tour and shared a lot of interesting information about the sites, beyond what you could get from the available information displays. Sado is a very special place and I would recommend Kei as a guide.
