Searching for creatures in the quiet atmosphere of the night was exciting. They also took photos for us, creating very good memories.

This is a recommended night tour that I hope everyone will experience when they come to Iriomote Island! I would love to participate again if I have the chance. 昼間とはまったく違う西表島の魅力を体験できる、とても素敵なツアーでした！

街明かりがほとんどないので星空が本当にきれいで、見上げるたびに感動しました。ガイドさんが星座や西表島ならではの夜の生き物について詳しく説明してくださり、ただ見るだけではなく学びながら楽しめたのも良かったです。

夜ならではの静かな雰囲気の中で、生き物探しもワクワクしました。写真も撮っていただき、とても良い思い出になりました。

西表島に来たらぜひ体験してほしい、おすすめのナイトツアーです！また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

I heard that there are times when you can't see the coconut crabs, but I was able to find more than 10 of them while climbing trees (it's a shame I couldn't take proper photos). The sky was clear, and I was able to see the beautiful starry sky!ヤシガニが見れない時もあるとのことでしたが、車のハンドル級（写真ちゃんと取れず残念）木登り中など10匹以上発見できました。

On the day I participated, I was very lucky to discover many coconut crabs in the forest. It was said that days like this are rare. Also, since it was a new moon, the starry sky was very clear, and I was able to see artificial satellites and shooting stars, making it a valuable experience.私が参加した日はとてもラッキーなことに、森の中でヤシガニさんを沢山発見することができました。こんなに見られる日は珍しいとのことでした。

The guide was bright and friendly. It was a very fulfilling tour that was worth more than the price, and we thoroughly explored the jungle. We visited at the beginning of May during the Golden Week, just after the start of the rainy season, but fortunately, we were blessed with good weather. In fact, thanks to the rain just before our visit, we encountered many creatures that thrive in humidity!明るく、親切なガイドさんでした。価格以上にとても充実したツアーで、ジャングルの中をしっかり散策します。訪問は5月頭のGWで梅雨入り直後でしたが、運良く天気にも恵まれ、むしろ直前の雨のおかげで湿気を好む生物に沢山出会えました！

When I applied, I was expecting a sky full of stars, but on the day of the event, it was cloudy and I couldn't see any stars, so it turned into a jungle exploration. I ventured into unmarked areas, and as a man over 60, I returned to my childhood, immersing myself in searching for creatures in tree holes and grass. I was delighted to encounter a natural monument, the coconut crab, which I will probably never see again in my lifetime.申し込んだ時は満天の星空を期待したが、当日は曇り星はまったくみれずジャングル探検となった

The starry night tour on Iriomote Island was an enchanting experience that made me forget about everyday life. The nights on the island, with almost no streetlights, are darker than I imagined, which makes the brilliance of the stars in the sky stand out even more.

As I gradually got used to the darkness with the guidance of our tour guide, countless stars that I initially didn't notice began to emerge one after another.西表島の星空ナイトツアーは、日常を忘れるほど幻想的な体験でした。街灯がほとんどない島の夜は想像以上に暗く、そのぶん空いっぱいに広がる星の輝きが際立って見えます。
