Moved!

みっちゃん

I was surprised to see sea turtles so close...
It was my first time snorkeling, and I was a bit anxious, but the underwater world was beautiful, and I was moved to encounter so many fish and sea turtles.

It was a shame that I couldn't take pictures during the sunset SUP because the sun was hidden.
I would like to try it again.
Thank you, guide Mr. Shimaji! 😊こんなに近くでウミガメが見れるなんて…
びっくりしました。
初めてのシュノーケリングで、少し不安でしたが、海の中は綺麗でたくさんの魚やウミガメに会うことができ感動しました。

サンセットSUPは夕日が隠れて写真を撮ることができず残念でした。
また、チャレンジしたいです。
ガイドの下地さんありがとうございました😊

Disappointing sunset.

I participated with two other groups. One group had three children, and they left their youngest, about 4 years old, with the guide to play. Because the guide was focused on that child, the other members were left unattended and didn't receive any instruction, and we couldn't get any sunset photos taken. It was disappointing since our time in Miyako Island was limited. 😢他に2組のグループの方と参加しました。
1組の方はお子さん３人連れで、1番小さい4歳くらいのお子さんをガイドさんに任せて遊んでいました。そのためガイドさんがつきっきりで面倒見ていた為、他のメンバーは放置プレイで何も教えてもらえない、サンセットの写真も撮ってもらえませんでした。
限られた宮古島での時間だったので残念でした😢

It was my first snorkeling experience after turning 60. The guide was kind, and it was the best experience. Meeting a sea turtle was truly moving.還暦過ぎての人生初のシュノーケリング。ガイドさんも親切で、最高の経験でした。ウミガメに出会えたことは、感激のひとこと

Due to the rain and wind, I couldn't do stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It seems that other companies had already assessed the weather and proceeded with refunds, while I was the only one who showed up on-site.

I appreciated that they considered rescheduling or offering other tours based on the weather, and that they were willing to let me decide on the day itself.

I appreciated that they considered rescheduling or offering other tours based on the weather, and that they were willing to let me decide on the day itself. However, I wish they had informed me of this over the phone beforehand. If I had received a call in advance, I would have definitely canceled without going there.

Initially, I was told there would be no refund since it was a discounted tour, but the guide checked on-site for me. It didn't make sense that I wouldn't receive a refund while other companies were processing payments.

I ended up waiting, and honestly, it felt like a huge waste of time. I was satisfied with the snorkeling experience and was able to see turtles. Both guides were very kind, but it was really disappointing that the administrative communication was so slow.

I was told afterward that I would receive a refund, but there has been no contact, and I had to initiate the communication myself. It's been a month and a half, and I still haven't received the refund. If they had communicated smoothly, I wouldn't have intended to leave this review, but due to the lack of coordination, I have decided to give this rating. 雨と風の影響でsupは出来ず。
他の会社は先にその天候を判断して返金対応を進めいたらしく、現地に来たのは私のみでした。

天候によって日程変更や他のツアーを進めてくれたり、当日来てもらって判断してもらうというギリギリまで考えてくださっているのは嬉しかったですがそうなることを先に電話で教えて欲しかったです。先に連絡頂ければ出向かず間違いなくキャンセルしていました。

また返金対応も最初は値引きしてるツアーなので無いと言われ、ガイドさんがその場で確認してくれました。流石に他の会社はお支払いしてるのに自分だけ貰え… 雨と風の影響でsupは出来ず。

待機する状況となり正直時間がとてももったいなかったです。
シュノーケルは無事に行けて亀も見れて満足しました。
どちらもガイドの方はすごく優しかったのに事務の連絡だけが遅く凄く残念でした。

その後も返金しますと言われましたが一向に連絡なく自分からやり取りする形に。
1ヶ月半たちましたがまだ返金されていません。
スムーズは話をしてくれていたら評価はするつもりありませんでしたがあまりに連帯が取れていないためこの評価とさせて頂きます。

I participated with my elementary school daughter. It was her first experience with snorkeling and SUP. The instructors were all very kind, and thanks to them, she was smiling and saying how much fun she was having the whole time! It was amazing to see a sea turtle up close, and even though it started to rain during the SUP, they kept the energy up, and we made great memories. Thank you very much!小学生の娘とふたり参加しました。シュノーケル、SUPともに初めての体験の娘。インストラクターさん皆さん優しく、おかげさまでずっと楽しい！楽しい！とニコニコしっぱなしでした。あんなに間近にウミガメが見られるなんて感動でしたし、SUPも雨が降ってきて大変でしたが、盛り上げていただき、良い思い出ができました。ありがとうございました。

Two Miracles with Sea Turtles! Safe Snorkeling in Miyako Island for Beginners

On the day of the event, I was a bit worried because of the rain, but the underwater scenery was more beautiful than I expected. I had the rare experience of seeing sea turtles up close, and I encountered them not once, but twice!

I was nervous since it was my first time snorkeling, but thanks to Shuri, who explained everything clearly and kindly, I was able to relax and enjoy myself right away. Even as a beginner, I felt at ease in nature.

I was also moved by the wonderful photos that Shuri took.… On the day of the event, I was a bit worried because of the rain, but the underwater scenery was more beautiful than I expected. I had the rare experience of seeing sea turtles up close, and I encountered them not once, but twice!

I was also moved by the wonderful photos that Shuri took. They captured beautiful moments that felt like a photo book, and I am truly grateful for that.

The special encounters with the sea turtles and the beautiful underwater scenery have become unforgettable memories. I would love to request this experience again the next time I visit Miyako Island. Thank you for a wonderful time! 参加当日はあいにくの雨で少し心配していましたが、海の中は予想以上に美しく、ウミガメをとても近くで見ることができ、なんと2回もウミガメに出会えるという貴重な体験ができました！

I was taken care of by Ken! During snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle! He taught us carefully, allowing us to enjoy it with peace of mind!

I was filled with anxiety during my first stand-up paddleboarding experience, but he made it fun and lively, and my husband and I were able to create wonderful memories together. Ken was easy to talk to, a great conversationalist, and made us laugh, so the time flew by.

Thank you for allowing me to participate in the snorkeling tour this time!
It was my first time, but Ken explained everything carefully from the beginning, and Riku provided solid support!

They guided us to see sea turtles, and we were able to see many fish.
It was truly a fun time!

Due to the typhoon, I couldn't do other activities, but I was able to go snorkeling and create wonderful memories!
Even as a beginner, I felt safe and secure!今回はシュノーケリングツアーに参加させていただきありがとうございました！
