穏やかな川を進みながら、西表島ならではの雄大な自然やマングローブの景色を間近で見ることができ、とても感動しました。ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、動植物の話を聞きながらのツアーはとても勉強になりました。

写真もたくさん撮っていただき、素敵な思い出になりました。初心者でも安心して楽しめるので、西表島を訪れる方にはぜひおすすめしたいツアーです。また西表島に来た際は参加したいと思います！

On Yubu Island, the experience of crossing over in a water buffalo cart was refreshing, and we were soothed by the buffalo's pace. The island was filled with tropical plants, making for a very pleasant and leisurely stroll.

Our guide was also kind and took many photos, creating wonderful memories. I think this tour is perfect for those visiting Iriomote Island for the first time! 西表島らしい自然を1日で満喫できる、とても充実したツアーでした！

マングローブでは、ガイドさんが植物や生き物について楽しく説明してくださり、景色を楽しみながらゆったり過ごすことができました。普段見ることのできないジャングルの景色はとても感動的でした。

由布島では水牛車に乗って島へ渡る体験が新鮮で、水牛さんのペースに癒されました。島内は南国らしい植物がたくさんあり、のんびり散策できてとても気持ちよかったです。

Canoeing while looking at the greenery and the sea was fantastic. The water buffalo cart on Yubu Island and the botanical garden were truly enjoyable. I also visited Taketomi Island, but the experiences and sightseeing on Iriomote Island were outstanding. Iriomote Island is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and it's difficult to explore on your own, so it's efficient to go with a guide. I appreciate the transportation to the port as well. 西表島、サイコーでした！前日からご連絡も頂き、当日のガイドやカヌーのレクチャー、マングローブ等の生態の説明もあり楽しく貴重な時間でした。緑や海を見ながら カヌーは、サイコーでした。由布島の水牛車、植物園と本当に楽しかったです。竹富島も行きましたが、西表島の体験や観光が素晴らしかったです。西表島は世界自然遺産で、個人では難しくガイドさんの案内で回るのが効率的です。港までも送迎、感謝です

I experienced mangroves, SUP, and a water buffalo cart on Yubu Island. The staff were polite and cheerful, providing great guidance, which was very nice. It felt like time flowed slowly, and I was very relaxed. There are also stylish restaurants on Iriomote Island, and I enjoyed a delicious lunch there.

There was about an hour of waiting time until the return ferry, so I hope there will be a smoother ferry option available in the future.マングローブ、SUP.由布島観光、水牛車　の体験しました。スタッフさんは丁寧で元気よく案内してくれてとてもよかったです。のんびりと時間が流れるようでとても癒されました。西表島におしゃれなレストランもあり、美味しいランチもいただけました。

Moreover, our instructor, Shabi, provided various interesting facts about Iriomote Island while guiding us, which made the experience even more enjoyable than the activities themselves!

I also joined the tour as a day trip from Ishigaki Island. After the tour ended, there was a bit of time before the return ferry, but I highly recommend Maruma Beach 🏖, which is about a 10-minute walk from the ferry terminal! It was the most beautiful sea I've ever seen, and since I happened to have clothes that I didn't mind getting wet, I changed and played in the sea. The time until the ferry arrived flew by! マングローブカヌー🛶＆由布島水牛観光🐮のツアーを体験しました。

My elementary school daughter experienced the ocean and snorkeling for the first time in her life. At first, she was nervous, but the guide, Ok-kun, and all the staff at Pipi were truly friendly and supportive, and by the end, she was saying, "This is so much fun!"

Having her first experience in such a beautiful sea was truly a luxurious experience. The time spent gently swaying in the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island was also fantastic, making it a day where we could fully enjoy the charms of Iriomote.

Thank you very much! 前日・当日と快晴で、バラス島の海は吸い込まれそうな透明度！たくさんのサンゴと魚たちに癒され、なんとハナミノカサゴにも出会えるという幸運に恵まれました。
小学生の娘は今回が人生初の海＆シュノーケリング。最初はドキドキでしたが、

We were guided by Komachan during the kayaking. I appreciated that even though I couldn't take photos with my own smartphone, he took plenty of pictures for us. Since there were quite a few participants, it was challenging to paddle without bumping into others.

At Yufu Island, we had about an hour of free time, which allowed us to explore the area, so that was nice.

On the day of the tour, the ferry to Uehara Port was canceled, so we had to go to Ohara Port and then take a bus to gather at Uehara Port. However, I was grateful that we were taken back to Ohara Port afterward. Overall, it was a fun experience that you can only have on a tour. 夫婦での参加、午前はマングローブカヤック、午後に水牛車に乗り由布島へ行く体験をしました。
