All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

It looked like it might rain on the day of our visit, and I was unsure if we would be able to land (I heard that if the waves are over 50 cm, landing is not possible), but we managed to get ashore! Our guide was someone who actually lived on Gunkanjima, and his stories had a real sense of presence. The ruins of Gunkanjima were impressive, and the atmosphere was indescribably amazing! I definitely want to go back.

当日は雨が降りそうで上陸できるかどうか、でしたが（波が50cm以上あると上陸できないそうです）何とか上陸できました！ガイドの方は実際に軍艦島に住んでいた方で話にも臨場感がありました。廃墟と化した軍艦島は迫力がありなんとも言えない雰囲気がサイコーでした！また行きたいと思っています。

The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and kind, allowing us to fully enjoy and experience Iriomote Island! Thank you very much.

ガイドさんがとても知識豊富で人当たりもよく、親切で西表島を満喫し楽しむ事ができました！ありがとうございました。

I am 58 years old, my wife is 56, and we participated with our 25-year-old daughter. I was worried about whether we could reach Jomon Sugi, but in addition to the breaks at the rest areas, we received explanations about various types of cedar trees, as well as plants and moss, while considering our fatigue. Thank you for leading us so well.

私　58歳、妻56歳　娘25歳と参加しました。
縄文杉迄　行けるかどうか　不安でしたが
休憩所の休憩に加え　各種の杉は勿論、私達の疲労度を観て　草木やコケの説明とかも入れて　戴き上手くリードして戴きました。ありがとうございました

Fun captain! Kind staff!
They stopped at the points of interest, and it was a very pleasant cruise!

楽しい船長さん！優しいスタッフ！
ポイント地点では止まってもらえたり、とても心地よいクルーズでした！

I participated in a stargazing and night safari tour. Just before the tour started, it began to rain, which made me worried, but I was informed that the tour would go ahead as planned. They picked me up from the hotel, and it rained during the drive. However, when we arrived at the viewing point and stepped outside, it was clear, and we were able to enjoy it at the perfect timing. At Bunna Mountain, I was able to see the night view, fireflies, and even the stars, which I thought would be impossible due to the rain (﹡ˆ﹀ˆ﹡)♡

There was an owl on the power line along the way, but it flew away when I tried to see it... I also searched for a coconut crab for a while, but unfortunately, I couldn't find one (´•̥ ̯ •̥`). However, the guide kindly continued to search until the end (^^). I was satisfied because I got to see a hermit crab and a bat. Among the many types of fireflies, I was a bit surprised to identify them, but it turned out to be a fun night safari. The stories from the friendly guide were enjoyable as well (^ - ^). If I have the opportunity again, I would like to go back and try to see a coconut crab. Thank you very much (^ - ^)/

星空鑑賞＆ナイトサファリツアーに参加しました。
ツアー出発直前になって雨になってしまい心配しましたが、予定通りツアー開催との事でホテルまで迎えに来てもらい、車中移動中は雨。鑑賞ポイントに到着し、外に出ると晴れてとタイミング良く楽しめました。バンナ岳では夜景と蛍、そして雨では絶対無理と思っていた星空まで見れました(﹡ˆ﹀ˆ﹡)♡
フクロウは途中電線にいましたが、見ようとしたら飛んでしまい…
ヤシガニもしばらく探しましたが、残念ながら会えませんでした(´•̥  ̯ •̥`)
でも、ガイドさんは親切に最後まで探してくださいました(^^)
ヤドカリやコウモリには会えたので満足です。
蛍の種類が沢山いる中、正体が分かり少し驚きでしたが楽しいナイトサファリになりました。
親切なガイドさんのお話も楽しかったです(^-^)
また、機会がありましたらリベンジ、ヤシガニに会いに行きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました(^-^)/

The guide was knowledgeable and made it easy to climb quickly. Additionally, they were well-versed in various topics, making the conversation enjoyable and never boring. I want to go again.

ガイドさんが知識豊富で早々と楽々登ることができた。また、登山だけでなく、様々なことについて熟知していたため、話していても飽きないものでした。また行きたいです。

I participated alone! I was nervous until the day before, wondering if it would be canceled due to COVID, so I was glad it was held. There was space between the seats, possibly for COVID measures. The staff and the driver were kind.

At Pineapple Park, I didn't have much time to relax and look at souvenirs, and I was in a rush and couldn't try the pineapple samples. For some reason, there were dinosaurs, and it was surprising like Jurassic Park.

I was worried about not having enough time at Churaumi Aquarium, but I ended up having a little extra time and was able to eat while looking at the ocean at the restaurant! I was able to see the dolphin show from the front row and was healed by the dolphins' intelligence and cuteness.

Even though I couldn't drive, they took me along, and I appreciated the freedom to explore. The admission fee was included, which I thought was a good deal. I bought some juice, but I also received a bottle of water.

1人参加でした！
コロナで中止にならないか前日までドキドキだったので開催されて良かったです。コロナ対策のためか座席、空間もありました★
スタッフさんも運転手さんも親切でした。
パイナップルパークではゆっくりしていたお土産みる暇があまりなくて、焦ってパイン試食できませんでした(>人<；)笑なぜか恐竜もいて、ジュラシックパークのようで驚きました笑。
美ら海水族館は時間足りなかったらどうしようと思ってましたが、少しあまり、レストランで海を見ながらご飯も食べられました！
イルカショーも最前列で見ることができ、イルカの賢さと可愛らしさに癒されました★
車が運転できなくても連れて行ってくれ、自由行動だし、入場料もついていてお得だと思いました。
ジュース買って行ったんですが、ペットボトルのお水をもらえました。

This is a wonderful tour that allows you to fully enjoy the great outdoors for an entire day! Since we were going to Iriomote Island, we wanted to enjoy both the sea and the mountains, so we signed up for the tour as a couple.

In the morning, we did mangrove SUP. Although I was a beginner, the difficulty wasn't too high, and we were able to see a beautiful waterfall as we paddled down the river.

In the afternoon, we went snorkeling near Barasu Island. Our guide took us to a spot where we could enjoy the fish and beautiful coral, and I was amazed by the clear sea. Throughout the day, our guide took many photos for us and sent them after the tour, and they were all fantastic! The location and angles were perfect, and we got photos that we couldn't have taken ourselves, so we were very satisfied!

The café where we had lunch had a great atmosphere and was very delicious. They also communicated well about what to bring and the meeting place in advance, so we were well prepared.

If I have the opportunity to travel to Iriomote Island again, I would definitely like to use the same PiPi tour company. Thank you!

大自然を丸一日かけて大満喫できる、すばらしいツアーでお勧めです！
せっかく西表島へ行くなら海も山も両方楽しみたいと思い、カップルでツアーを申し込みました。
午前中はマングローブＳＵＰで、初心者でしたが難易度はそこまで高くなく、川を進んだ先には美しい滝を見ることができました。
午後はバラス島付近でのシュノーケルをしました。魚や美しいサンゴが楽しめるポイントまでガイドさんが連れて行ってくださり、きれいな海に感動しました。
1日を通してガイドさんが写真をたくさん撮ってくださり、ツアー後に送ってくださったのですが、最高にいい写真ばかりでした！抜群のロケーションとナイスアングルで、自分たちでは撮れないような写真ばかりで、大満足です！
ランチで連れて行って頂いたカフェも雰囲気がよく、大変美味しかったです。
事前に持ち物や集合場所についてきちんとご連絡いただき、しっかり準備もできました。
西表島へまた旅行する機会があれば、同じＰｉＰｉさんをぜひ利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

The tour was incredibly satisfying both in the morning and afternoon.

We took a boat from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island at 8:30 AM. As soon as we arrived, we met our guide who provided an overview of the tour in the car, and then we headed to the mangrove canoe/SUP experience location.

While paddling through the mangrove forest on the SUP and at Kura Falls, the guide took photos for us, which we received that same day, making it a fun experience for couples!

Additionally, during the snorkeling experience around Barasu Island, we were able to see many fish that can only be found at this spot.

The guide also took photos while we were swimming, diving underwater to capture shots, resulting in a unique keepsake that we could only get here.

The morning mangrove tour with the guide's explanations allowed us to learn about the creatures and plants living in the forest, and the snorkeling experience in the beautiful sea in the afternoon made for an unforgettable day that we couldn't have gotten anywhere else.

I will participate again! Thank you very much.

午前/午後ともに大満足のツアー内容でした。

朝8時30分の船で、石垣島から西表島に向かいました。到着してすぐ、ガイドの方と合流して車の中でツアー概要をお話頂き、マングローブカヌー/SUPの体験場所まで向かいます。

SUPでマングローブの森を進む間やクーラの滝ではガイドさんが写真を撮って下さり、その日に写真を頂けるので、カップルで参加すると盛り上がります！

また、クルーザーで向かうバラス島周辺でのシュノーケリング体験では、このスポットでしか見られないお魚を沢山見ることができます。

遊泳中にも写真を撮って頂けるのですが、ガイドのお兄さんが水中に潜って撮影してくれるので、ここでしか手に入れる事のできない記念の一枚となりました。

午前のガイドさんの解説つきマングローブツアーでは、森の中に生息する生物や植物の話を聞く事ができ、午後からの綺麗な海でのシュノーケリング体験は、他では得る事のできない最高の1日となりました。

また参加します！ありがとうございました。

As the title suggests, I encountered unique wildlife that can only be found in Ishigaki. Specifically, I saw the following: coconut crab, purple land hermit crab, Yaeyama flying fox, owl (possibly a brown hawk owl?), habu snake, large frogs, and Yaeyama fireflies.

Regarding the coconut crab, it was said to be a giant size that the guide encounters only about once every six months, making it quite impressive. I was surprised to see many hermit crabs at my feet, and there were also some large hermit crabs scuttling around, which were equally striking. I took a photo, and it was about the same size as my smartphone. As a side note, there were also cockroaches wandering around. It seems that there are many cockroaches in Ishigaki during the summer, so those who are not fond of them should be prepared.

Additionally, since the originally planned stargazing spot was covered by clouds, we changed to stargazing in a sugarcane field along the way. Thanks to their flexibility, we were able to see a sky full of stars.

However, the pickup on the day was disappointing. I waited at the designated meeting spot 15 minutes early, but no one came to pick us up, and even 10 minutes past the meeting time, there was still no sign of them. When I called the tour company, it seemed they had forgotten about us. About 15 minutes after the call, someone came to pick us up in a different vehicle from the main group. We then joined the main group, but it seemed we had kept the other participants waiting, which made me feel a bit guilty. The guide and the person who came to pick us up apologized, but I hope they can improve their internal communication to prevent this from happening again.

That said, the guide was friendly and engaging, and I was able to encounter many fascinating creatures, making it a great memory. I think this is a recommended tour.

タイトル通り、石垣ならではの生物と出会えました。
具体的には
ヤシガニ、ムラサキオカヤドカリ、ヤエヤマオオコウモリ、フクロウ(コノハズク？)、ハブ、大きいカエル、ヤエヤマホタル
と出会えました。

ヤシガニに関してはガイドさんでも半年に1回出会えるか出会えないかくらいの特大サイズだったらしく、インパクト大でした。
足元にたくさんのヤドカリがいて驚きましたが、特大サイズのヤドカリもウロチョロしており、こちらもインパクト大です。写真を載せましたが、スマホと同じような大きさでした。
余談ですが、ゴキブリもウロチョロしていました。
夏の石垣ではゴキブリがたくさんいるようですので
苦手な方は覚悟が必要かと思います。

また、本来予定していた星空鑑賞スポットに雲が掛かってしまったため、途中のサトウキビ畑での星空鑑賞に変更となりましたが、臨機応変に対応して頂けたおかげで満点の星空を見ることが出来ました。

ただ、当日のピックアップが残念でした。
指定された集合場所で15分前から待機していましたが
お迎えが来ず、集合時間から10分過ぎても来なかったため催行会社に電話したところ、私達の事を忘れていたようでした。
電話から15分後くらいに本隊とは別の車で迎えに来て頂けました。
そこから本隊へと合流しましたが、他参加メンバーを待たせてしまっていたようで何だか申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
ガイドさんや迎えに来て頂いた方から謝罪がありましたが、社内でキッチリと連携を取って再発防止して頂ければと思います。

とはいえ、ガイドさんも気さくに話して頂き、たくさんの生物とも出会うことが出来たので、良い思い出となりました。おすすめのツアーだと思います。

I visited Ishigaki Island for the first time, and since I was able to explore some of the surrounding islands, I had a fulfilling day. If you're feeling anxious about visiting individual islands, it might be a good idea to do a preliminary visit through a tour.

初めて石垣島に訪れましたが離島にも足が伸ばせたので、充実した1日を過ごせました。最初に個々の島を訪れるのが不安であれば、ツアーを通して下見するのもいいかもしれません。

During my stay in the Yaeyama Islands over the Golden Week, I had a short one-night visit to Iriomote Island, but I was able to fully enjoy the sea, mountains, rivers, and waterfalls. I felt reassured to participate since we communicated in advance about the meeting place and what to bring.

【Kura Falls】
We leisurely explored the mangroves by canoe and walked to the waterfall from a certain point. Along the way, our guide Diego shared insights about the ecosystem of Iriomote and the local flora and fauna, which deepened my knowledge and made for a wonderful experience. I was completely satisfied with my time in the Galapagos of the East.

【Barasu Island Snorkeling】
In the water depths of about 7-15 meters, there were colorful corals and fish in blue and yellow, and the sea was so clear that it was almost intimidating. Although the temperature was close to 30°C, the water wasn't too warm, so I recommend renting a wetsuit.

Despite it being high season, I received the photos via LINE on the same day, which became a great memory. Our guide Diego and everyone else were kind and friendly, making it a heartwarming trip. Thank you very much.

ＧＷ期間中の八重山滞在で、西表島には一泊と短い滞在期間でしたが、海も山も川も滝も満喫することができました。
集合場所や持ち物など、事前にコミュニケーションがとれたので安心して参加することができました。

【クーラの滝】
マングローブをカヌーでゆっくり散策し、途中から歩いて滝に到着。道中では、ガイドのジエゴさんから西表の生態系や、動植物について話を伺えたので知識が深まり、素晴らしい体験ができました。東洋のガラパゴスを満喫できて大満足です。

【バラス島シュノーケリング】
水深7-15m程のところに青や黄色の色とりどりの珊瑚礁や魚がいて、透明度が高すぎて怖くなるほどに綺麗な海でした。気温は30℃近くありましたが、水温が高くないので、ウェットスーツのレンタルがおすすめです。

ハイシーズンにもかかわらず、写真は当日中にLINEで送っていただき、大変良い思い出になりました。ガイドのジエゴさんはじめ、皆さま優しく気さくな人柄で、心も温まる旅行になりました。ありがとうございました。

It was a tour where I could truly experience the dynamism of Shodoshima. This was my first visit to Shodoshima, and thanks to the thorough explanations from our veteran guide, who knows the area well, and the safe driving of our driver, I was able to see all the must-visit spots on the island.

We had elderly family members with us, but we were informed in advance about places with stairs, which allowed us to move around with peace of mind.

The tour was set up so that people of various ages could enjoy it, leaving no time to get bored. The scenery I saw in Shodoshima is still etched in my heart.

I strongly wish to visit again. Thank you!

小豆島のダイナミズムを実感できるツアーでした。初めて小豆島を訪れましたが、地元を知り尽くしている、ベテランのガイドさんの丁寧な説明と、運転手さんの安全運転で、小豆島のここぞという名所をくまなく見ることができました。
家族に高齢者がいましたが、事前に階段どがある場所では教えて頂けたので、安心して移動することができました。
様々な年代が、それぞれ楽しめるように設定されていて、飽きる暇などありません。
小豆島で見た景色が今なお心に焼きついて離れません。
また訪ねてみたいと強く思いました。
ありがとうございました!

It was a very fulfilling day. I had a great time.

とても充実した一日でした。楽しかったです　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

I went snorkeling and canoeing for the first time, and I felt very safe and enjoyed it! The snorkeling was at Balas Island, and it was uncertain whether we could go due to the weather, but I received a call the day before, and they proposed alternatives in case we couldn't go. I appreciated the communication the day before; it was very courteous, and I felt reassured and enjoyed myself.

I had some experience with snorkeling before, but this was the first time I encountered such deep and beautiful coral spots. They took a lot of photos and sent them to me on the same day. I highly recommend this tour!!

初めてシュノーケリングやカヌーをしましたが、非常に安心して楽しめました！
シュノーケリングはバラス島であり、天候により行けるかどうか怪しかったですが、前日に電話があり、もし行けなかった場合のことも考え、代替案を提案してくれました。前日から連絡をいただけ、非常に丁寧で、安心して楽しめました。
また、シュノーケリングは何度か経験がありましたが、あんなに深くて綺麗な珊瑚のあるスポットは初めてでした。
写真もたくさん撮って頂いて、当日中に送信していただけました。とてもおすすめのツアーです！！

We participated as a couple because we wanted to see nocturnal animals. We gathered at the remote island terminal at 8 o'clock, and our guide came to pick us up, and off we went! It was a group tour with about seven people in a van. As we gradually left the city, the lights diminished, and we saw frogs and snakes on the road... we stopped briefly to observe them. Although we didn't see it this time, it's said that owls often perch on power lines, targeting frogs that have been run over. I wanted to see that... maybe next time!

We also stopped at a high point where we could enjoy a beautiful night view of Ishigaki City. After about 20 minutes, we moved to the beach, and finally, it was time for the night safari! Each of us held a flashlight, and while searching, a large coconut crab appeared from a gap between the rocks. It was huge, blue, and shy. It quickly hid as soon as it sensed our presence, so we couldn't observe it closely, but it was truly big. We also saw other natural monuments like hermit crabs and crabs living in the tide pools, as well as a mini hermit crab housing battle, making it a valuable experience. I highly recommend this night tour for a thrilling and different kind of adventure!

夜行性の動物を見てみたくて夫婦で参加しました。8時に離島ターミナルに集合し、ガイドさんがお迎えにきてくれいざ出発！バンにのって7名ほどのグループツアーです。だんだん市街を離れていくと明かりが減り、道にはカエルやヘビが…すこしとまって観察させてくれました。今回は見えませんでしたが、電線にフクロウがとまって轢かれたカエルを狙っていることも多いそうです。見たかった…次回！途中には夜景がきれいに見える高台にも寄ってくれ、石垣市街を楽しめました。その後、20分ほどでビーチへ移動し、ついにナイトサファリ！一人ずつ懐中電灯を持って垂らしながら探していると、大きな岩の隙間からヤシガニが現れてくれました。大きい〜青い〜シャイ〜。人の気配を感じるとすぐに隠れてしまったのでじっくり観察はできませんでしたが、本当に大きかったです。他にも天然記念物のヤドカリや磯に住むカニ、ミニヤドカリの宿取り合戦などが見れたので貴重な経験でした。一味違ったドキドキが味わえる夜の暗闇ツアー、オススメです！

There were no other participants, so I was guided by taxi. The guide worked hard to find monkeys and deer, and I was able to take pictures up close. The monkeys were fluffy and cute, especially the baby monkeys, which were small and different in color from the adults, being black and adorable. The guide was very knowledgeable about the plants, and it was very educational. The lunch was also delicious. Luckily, I was able to see a sea turtle. The guide was very kind and shared interesting stories from their childhood.

他に参加者がおらず、タクシーで案内してもらいました。ガイドさんが一生懸命猿と鹿を探してくださり、近くで写真に収めることができました。猿はモコモコして可愛く、特に子供の猿が小さくて大人と色が異なり黒くて可愛かったです。植物についてとても詳しく、非常に勉強になりました。昼食も美味しかったです。運良くウミガメを見ることもできました。ガイドさんがとても優しく、子供の頃のお話をしてくださり面白かったです。

This time, I was lucky enough to observe various creatures such as coconut crabs, purple land hermit crabs, and Yaeyama flying foxes! Regarding the starry sky, I was able to move away from the city to a place with fewer streetlights and enjoy stargazing! The guide was also very entertaining, and I had a wonderful time! This was my first visit to Ishigaki Island, and it became an unforgettable memory. While the beautiful sea is great, I believe observing the unique creatures of Ishigaki Island and gazing at the starry sky are also special attractions. I highly recommend it!

今回幸運にもヤシガニ、ムラサキオカヤドカリ、ヤエヤマオオコウモリや他にも様々な生物を観察できました！
星空に関しても市街地から離れて街灯の少ない場所へ移動して星空観察をすることができました！
ガイドさんもトークが面白くて非常に楽しい時間を過ごせました！今回ははじめての石垣島でしたが一生忘れられない思い出になりました。綺麗な海もいいですが、石垣島固有の生物を観察したり星空を眺めてみるのもならではの魅力だと思います、オススメです！！

I searched and signed up for a tour just with "Toyama Station departure, Snow Wall Walk, Golden Week," and it was a great decision! I never expected to have such a fun day.

The itinerary involved tracing the theme of water and snow along the Joganji River, and I thoroughly enjoyed the deepened experience of the Snow Wall Walk. It excites me to think that there is still so much to learn in the world.

Tours with a theme are really interesting. I hope to see more of these kinds of tours.

I had various anxieties, being a first-time solo traveler and participating during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the tour guide, Otsuka, provided a lot of support, allowing me to feel at ease. Thank you very much.

I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

富山駅発着、雪の大谷ウォーク、ゴールデンウィーク、ただこれだけで検索し申し込んだツアーでしたが、大正解！こんなに楽しい一日をすごせるとは。

水と雪をテーマに常願寺川という一本の川を遡りながら富山を読み解いていく行程。一段深まった雪の大谷ウォークを楽しめました。まだまだ世の中には学ぶことがたくさんあると思うとワクワクします。

テーマを持ったツアーって本当に面白い。
こういうツアーがたくさん増えるといいな。

初めてのお一人様、コロナ禍中の参加などいろいろ不安がありましたがツアーガイドの大塚さんにたくさんサポートしていただいて安心して過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

またチャンスがあれば参加したいです。

The snow depth is 14 meters! It's more impressive than I imagined. The weather was rough, but I was captivated by the guide's knowledgeable stories.

積雪の高さは14m！
想像以上に迫力があります。
天気は荒れてましたが、ガイドさんの知識話に圧巻されました。

Which island should I visit? Where is interesting? I had so many questions that I decided to sign up for a tour. The tour around the islands was very fulfilling, with introductions to sights while riding a water buffalo cart and singing with a sanshin.

If I had to mention a downside, each itinerary was packed tightly, making it feel a bit rushed, and it wasn't a leisurely sightseeing experience. (If possible, I would have preferred more free exploration time on Taketomi Island instead of Yubu Island.)

However, I was able to feel the charm of the islands and the relaxed flow of time, which was very nice. Next, I want to visit each island one by one.

どの島に行ったらいいの？どこがおもしろい？見所は？？など、本当にわからないことばかりだったので思い切ってツアーを申込みました。三島めぐって水牛車では見所紹介や三線で歌を歌ってくれたりととても充実してました。
難を挙げるなら、ひとつひとつの行程がぎゅっとつまっていて慌ただしく、ゆっくりと観光……という感じではありませんでした。
（できれば由布島ではなく竹富で自由探索の時間を長く設けて欲しかったです。。）
ただ、島の良さやゆったりとした時間の流れを感じることができたのでとてもよかったです。
次はひとつひとつの島を訪ねたいと思います。

On the day of arrival at New Ishigaki Airport, you can head straight to the Yaeyama Ferry Terminal and take a ferry to Taketomi Island. They will also hold your luggage, so you can travel light. The maximum stay, including the water buffalo cart, is about 3.5 hours.

新石垣空港到着当日　そのまま離島ターミナルから竹富島へ
荷物も預かって頂けるので　身軽で行けます。
水牛車含めての滞在時間　最大で3.5時間ほどです。

I had a fun trip to Jomon Sugi and back, but I was told that the shuttle bus wouldn't depart until everyone was gathered, and I ended up waiting for an hour and a half. If this had been explained from the start, I could have taken my time more, and I think there could have been options for those who were late to take a taxi down the mountain. In the end, it became less enjoyable.

縄文杉まで楽しく行って帰ってきたのですが、送迎バスが全員揃わないと出発しないと言われ、1時間半も待たされました。
最初から説明されていればもっとゆっくり出来たし、目標時間に遅れた人はタクシーで下山とかやりようはあると思います。
最後に楽しく無くなった。

The bus had a system for circulating air, and the air conditioning was just right. Additionally, the seating arrangement allowed for distance from other participants, which made me feel safe.

In Shirakawa-go, we parked in a lot designated for authorized vehicles, so unlike the general parking area, we didn't have to walk much, making for a comfortable and smooth transition. I think this is unique to this tour.

At various points inside and outside the bus, the guide explained the photo spots and interesting buildings, and even though it was a full-day tour, I was able to participate without getting bored! The food was delicious too!

バス内は空気が循環する仕組みとなっているとのことで、空調もちょうどよく、また他の参加者の方とは距離のある座席設定となっており安心でした。
白川郷は、許可車専用の駐車場に停まったので一般用の駐車場と違ってたくさんあるく必要もなく快適かつスムーズな移動ができました。このツアーならではだと思います。
バス内外の各ポイントで、ガイドさんが撮影ポイントや面白い建物の説明をしてくださり、丸一日のツアーでしたが飽きずに参加することができました！ごはんも美味しかったです！

I participated in this bus tour starting from Kanazawa Station, aiming to visit the morning market and the Sacred Area of Cape. It was my first bus tour, and I was a bit anxious, but on the day of the tour, we were blessed with clear skies and great weather. We were able to visit all the places I wanted to see and enjoyed many beautiful views in perfect conditions. The places I visited (after getting off the bus for sightseeing) were: Chirihama Nagisa Highway → Wajima Morning Market → Shiroyone Senmaida → Sodegahama Beach (lunch) → Madoiwa (bonus) → Rokkozaki Lighthouse → Sacred Area of Cape (Blue Cave) → Mitsuke Island (bonus). Although Madoiwa and Mitsuke Island were not part of the bus tour itinerary, we made a brief stop there because of the good weather and ample time, which I thought was a nice service. For lunch, I had a seafood bowl at a restaurant with a great view of the sea at Sodegahama Beach, and it was rich in ingredients, luxurious, and very delicious. I didn't go, as I wanted to relax after my meal, but there is also the Tarumi Waterfall nearby, which you could visit before the departure time.

The driving was taken care of, allowing us to relax without worrying about getting lost, and the tour guide occasionally provided explanations about places we didn't get off at, which made it enjoyable. The cost of 14,000 yen per person, including lunch and the entrance fee for the Blue Cave, is quite a bargain. Since the tour has limited time, you can't stay at each location for long, but it's recommended for those who want to visit many sightseeing spots in one day. As long as the weather is good, it will undoubtedly be a fantastic trip. In my case, I participated with another person, but there were also individuals who joined alone, making it a tour that anyone can enjoy easily. The only complaint I have is that we could only stay at Chirihama Nagisa Highway for about five minutes before departing, and I wished we could have driven a bit longer along the sandy beach by the sea. However, the scenery was still very beautiful, and it was worth seeing. I participated in the tour in May, but I think different seasons offer different views, so I would like to go again if I have the chance.

金沢駅が出発地点ということと、朝市と聖域の岬が目当てでこのバスツアーに参加しました。バスツアーは初めてで不安でしたが、ツアー当日は雲一つない晴天で天候に恵まれ、観たかった場所に全て行けて、最高のコンディションの景色をたくさん観ることができました。私が行った(バスから降りて観光した)場所は、千里浜なぎさハイウェイ→輪島朝市→白米千枚田→曽々木海岸(昼食)→窓岩(おまけ)→禄剛崎灯台→聖域の岬(青の洞窟)→見附島(おまけ)でした。窓岩や見附島に関してはバスツアーの予定にはなかったのですが、天候が良く時間に余裕があるからということで少し寄ってくれたりなどもしてくれてサービスが良いなと思いました。お昼は曽々木海岸の海の見える景色の良い食事処で海鮮丼を食べましたが、具が豊富で豪華でとても美味しかったです。私はご飯を食べてその後ゆっくりしたかったので行きませんでしたが、近くに垂水の滝があり、ご飯後は出発時間まで観に行くこともできました。
運転はおまかせでゆっくりできるし道に迷うことはなく、降りなかった場所も走行中に添乗員さんが時折説明してくれたので楽しめました。
お昼代や青の洞窟の入場料も込みで一人1万4千円はかなりお得です。ツアーは時間は限られているので、一つ一つの場所に自由に長く滞在はできませんが、一日で観光名所をたくさん回りたいという人にはオススメです。天候さえ恵まれれば最高の旅になることには間違いないです。私の場合は二人で参加しましたが、一人で参加されてる人もいて、気軽に誰でも楽しめるツアーでした。ただ一つ不満があるとしたら、千里浜なぎさハイウェイは5分ほどしか滞在できず、すぐ出発したのでもう少し海沿いに砂浜を走って欲しかったなというところだけが心残りでした。しかし、それでも景色はとても良く観た甲斐はありました。5月にツアーに参加しましたが、他の季節はまた違った景色が楽しめると思うので、機会があればもう一度また行きたいと思っています。

I'm so happy that I was able to ride a water buffalo cart and fulfill my dream!! Since I have a one-year-old child, I was unsure whether to go on my own considering the time, but I'm glad I chose the tour! First of all, we could get on right away without waiting for tickets, so the timing was smooth, which was the best part. The buffalo was super cute!!

水牛車に乗れて、夢を叶えることが出来て幸せです!!
1歳の子供がいるので、時間の事を考えると個人で行こうか迷ったけど、、ツアーで良かったと思います！まずは次々とチケットを待たずにすぐ乗れるので、時間がスムーズだったのが1番です。
牛、めちゃ可愛かった〜!!

First, I was picked up at the hotel and we started searching for coconut crabs on the beach! Right from the beginning, we found a coconut crab on a coral rock!! Unfortunately, it quickly hid back into the rock, but we were able to see it clearly! On the beach, we were able to see coconut crabs and the natural monument, hermit crabs! We then moved from the beach to Mount Bannna and were able to see the Ryukyu Scops Owl as well! At the observation deck, we enjoyed a panoramic view of the night scenery of Ishigaki Island, making for a satisfying night safari! It was a very fulfilling experience that you can't have in the city!

まずは、ホテルまで迎えに来てもらい海岸でヤシガニ探しから始まりました！
開始早々に、珊瑚の岩にいたヤシガニを見つけました！！
残念ながらすぐに岩の中に隠れてしまいましたがはっきりと見ることができました！
海岸ではヤシガニ、天然記念物のヤドカリを見ることができました！
海岸からバンナ山に移動しリュウキュウコノハズクも見ることができました！
展望台では石垣島の夜景を一望でき満足したナイトサファリでした！
都会では体験できない内容で大変満足できる内容でした！

I'm glad I was able to participate in the special course with the captain's experienced guidance and a longer cruise than planned. However, I felt it was a bit crowded, and given the ongoing pandemic, it was challenging to maintain distance from others while taking photos.

船長さんの経験豊富なガイドと予定より長いクルーズでスペシャルコースとなり、参加できてよかったです　ただ思っていたよりお客さんが多くコロナ禍でもあるので写真を撮りながらも人との距離がとり辛いなと感じました

A few days ago, I thought I needed a rental car, so I searched for one but found none available. I was planning to go to Yakusugi Land by bus when I found this tour and signed up immediately. I received confirmation the day before departure and participated. The half-day tour was fully booked along with the one-day tour participants. My husband had forgotten his wallet at the pension where we stayed the night before, and when I consulted the guide, they said it was fine to stop by there in the afternoon, which was a great help. The tour was also rich in content, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

何日か前にやはりレンタカーがないと、、と思い検索しましたが空きがなくバスで屋久杉ランドだけ行こうと思ってたらこのツアーを見つけ直ぐに申し込みました。出発前の日にOKの連絡が来て参加じした。半日ツアーの方々と１日ツアーの方々とで満席でした。主人が前日泊まったペンションに財布を忘れて困ったと思いガイドさんに相談したら昼過ぎにそこを通るので寄って良いとの事で助かりました。ツアーも内容か濃く満喫しました。

I had been interested for a while, but the other day, I suddenly came across this tour and made a reservation right away. It was a wonderful cruise, even better than I imagined. The captain provided detailed explanations, making it a valuable 90 minutes. I hope to create another opportunity to go again.

以前から、気にはしてましたが、先日、ふっと、このツアーが、出て来て
即予約しました。　想像以上に素敵なクルーズでした。船長さんの丁寧な説明が、有り、貴重な、90分でした。
また、機会を作って行きたいと思います。
