The sagaribana was blooming just a little. It seems it fell due to the typhoon, but it was still the long-awaited sagaribana. Staff member Kameyama's explanation was wonderful and kept me engaged. After that, I enjoyed the night view, and I received helpful recommendations for Ishigaki and information about other tours. Thank you very much.ほんの少しだけ咲いていたサガリバナ。
台風で落下したらしくそれでも念願のサガリバナ。スタッフの亀山さんの解説が素晴らしく退屈しませんでした。その後夜景を観て石垣のオススメや他のツアー情報も教えてくださいまして役立ちました。ありがとうございました。

First of all, thank you for accommodating our situation when I inquired about the pickup location in advance.

I have participated in many activities so far. Generally, I don't write low-rated reviews, but honestly, this was the most disappointing tour I've experienced.

First of all, thank you for accommodating our situation when I inquired about the pickup location in advance.

I have participated in many activities so far. Generally, I don't write low-rated reviews, but honestly, this was the most disappointing tour I've experienced.

The schedule indicated that the activity would last 55 minutes from start to finish, but in reality, it was only about 15 to 20 minutes. The sagaribana was beautiful, but the viewing area was a field that could be walked across in one minute, and we just looked at the sagaribana and took photos before it was over.

Since I received a message the day before asking for the sizes of everyone's rubber boots, I thought we would be moving to another location, but instead, they confirmed the hotel we were being taken to, leaving me with the feeling of "Is this it?" It was also painful to be left there for what felt like many more minutes (laughs). I wonder what the rubber boot sizes were for? Another family that participated with us was also having a conversation like, "Isn't this enough? Don't we want to go home?!"

The sightseeing taxi we used the day before (for 4 hours) was very fulfilling, and since the cost was exactly the same for our family of four, I might have felt even more disappointed. It might be good for those who are studying sagaribana or are very interested and could watch it for a long time, but perhaps our expectations were too high. This was the only part of our trip to Ishigaki Island that I regretted booking.

サガリバナを見て写真を撮って終了。

前日に、家族全員の長靴のサイズを確認する連絡が入っていたため
場所を変えて次の地点に移動するのかと思えば、送り先のホテルを確認されたので
「これで終了?」という思いが拭いきれませんでした。
あの場で、あと何十分も放置されるのも苦痛でしたが(笑)
長靴のサイズは何だったのかな?
一緒に参加していた別のご家族も、「もういいよね?帰りたいよね?!」という
会話をされていました。

前日に利用した観光タクシー(4時間)がとても充実していて
家族4人で、料金がまったく同じだったこともあり余計に残念に感じたのかもしれません。
サガリバナを研究していたり、すごく興味があってずっと見ていられる人には
良いかもしれませんが、私たちは期待値が高すぎたのかもしれませんね。
今回の石垣島旅行で、唯一、申し込みを後悔しました。

The sagaribana was wonderful.

The Sagarihana is a flower that blooms during this season in the Okinawa and Yaeyama region, and it opens at night. I thought it would be tough to go alone since it moves at night, so I joined a tour.

After gathering, the tour adjusted the timing and took us to the Tanbuku Farm's garden, where we stayed for about an hour before being transported back. The site was beautifully lit up, and even though it was small, it was enjoyable, so I’m glad I participated. Moreover, since there are hardly any …
The Sagarihana is a flower that blooms during this season in the Okinawa and Yaeyama region, and it opens at night. I thought it would be tough to go alone since it moves at night, so I joined a tour.

After gathering, the tour adjusted the timing and took us to the Tanbuku Farm's garden, where we stayed for about an hour before being transported back. The site was beautifully lit up, and even though it was small, it was enjoyable, so I’m glad I participated. Moreover, since there are hardly any streetlights along the way, I think it’s safer to have someone take you there.

Looking at the Sagarihana, it seemed that about half of the flowers had already finished blooming at Tanbuku Farm, and it appears to be a limited period from late June to early July, so if your schedule allows, it might be a good idea to go see the Sagarihana.

When the Sagarihana blooms, it emits a sweet and unique fragrance, creating a mysterious atmosphere upon arrival, including the sight of the flowers. I definitely recommend experiencing this in person.
サガリバナは、沖縄・八重山地方において、この時期に咲く花で、しかも夜に花が開く花。夜に移動するので、一人で行くのはしんどいと思い、ツアーに参加しました。
ツアーは、集合後に時間調整をしてから、今回は田福農園さんの庭へと連れて行ってもらい、1時間ほど滞在した後に、送迎してもらうという流れでした。現地はライトアップされていて、小さいながらも楽しめまして、参加してよかったです。しかも、道中はほとんど街灯もない場所ですので、連れて行ってもらった方が安心だと思います。

また、サガリバナの状況をみると、田福農園さんの方は半分ぐらい花が咲き終わった感じでして、6月後半から7月前半までの期間限定のようですので、予定が合えばサガリバナを見に行くのもよいのではないでしょうか。

サガリバナは、咲くと甘いような独特の匂いを発するので、現地に到着すると、花の様子も含めて不思議な感じになります。これは是非とも実際に現地で体験して欲しいです。
