All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

We arrived earlier than our scheduled time, so it was helpful that we could depart early without any loss of time. I was worried about it being crowded during this season, but we had the place to ourselves, and the enjoyable conversation along with the wonderful scenery was truly soothing for the heart! I was moved to discover that there are such lovely places in Japan. Thank you very much.

予約時間より早く到着したので早めに出発して頂き時間のロスもなく助かりました。
この時期だから密にならないか心配してましたが私達だけの貸切で楽しいトークと素晴らしい景色に心癒されました！
日本にもこの様な素敵な場所があったとは感動です。ありがとうございました。

This was my first trekking experience in life, and I usually don't exercise much. It was a challenging journey with heavy rain due to an approaching typhoon, but thanks to the guide's instructions on adjusting our clothing and teaching us how to walk without straining our legs and back, we were able to reach the goal safely!

When I saw the Jomon cedar at the summit, I was so moved that I almost cried! There were many highlights besides the named Jomon cedar and the couple's cedar, and I was glad to receive detailed explanations.

It turned out that there were only the two of us in the tour group, and with only about 50 climbers that day, it was great that there was no crowd, allowing us to take plenty of photos!

Since the weather can change quickly, I recommend preparing waterproof gear and shoes. It was reassuring that masks were required in the shuttle bus and that social distancing was maintained.

Our guide, Mr. Shinmura, was very knowledgeable and answered our questions thoroughly. He also provided recommendations for shops in Yakushima, which was very helpful! Thank you so much for your support.

普段あまり運動をしていない中の人生初トレッキングでした。
台風接近中で途中激しい雨に遭い険しい道のりでしたが、ガイドさんの指示で服装を調節したり、足腰を痛めない歩き方を教えていただいたおかげで無事ゴールできました！
頂上で縄文杉を見たときは感動して涙が出そうになりました・・！名前がついている縄文杉や夫婦杉以外にも見どころがたくさんあり、詳しく説明していただけてよかったです。
ツアー参加者はたまたま私たち夫婦2名のみで、その日全体の登山者が50人程度ということもあり、混雑がなく写真をたくさん撮れたことも良かったです！
天候が変わりやすいので雨具や靴は防水性が高いものを用意することをお勧めいたします。
送迎の車やシャトルバス内ではマスク必須でソーシャルディスタンスが保たれており、安心でした。
ご担当いただいたガイドの新村さんは知識豊富でこちらの質問にも丁寧に答えていただきました。屋久島のお勧めのお店等も教えていただき、とても助かりました！お世話になり本当にありがとうございました。

Due to the impact of COVID-19, there were fewer tourists than usual, so the walking paths were less crowded, allowing me to fully enjoy the forest bathing. The guide shared various interesting facts about the animals and plants of Shiretoko, as well as information about the lakes and weather, making even the ordinary paths enjoyable to walk. This time it was summer, but I would love to visit again in another season!

コロナの影響もあり、例年より観光客が少ないとのこと、散策道は人が少なめで存分に森林浴を楽しめました。
ガイドさんは知床の動物や植物、湖やお天気のことなど、様々な豆知識を話ししてくださるので、普通の歩道も楽しく歩けました。
今回は夏でしたが、別の季節ももう一度訪問したいです！

The Jomon Sugi tour that I had always wanted to go on! I was worried about the weather, my stamina, and the temperature, but it was so much fun and I could really feel nature all around me. Above all, the sense of accomplishment was incredible (laughs). Our guide, Mr. Yabuta, was adorable (*´꒳`*). It was easy to understand and enjoyable as we walked while he explained about the flowers, moss, leaves, the different types of cedar trees, the mountains, and the history! The spring water was cold and delicious. There were some mishaps along the way, like my shoes breaking and dropping my drink, but I was grateful for how quickly they handled everything! The information beyond just the Jomon Sugi tour was also very helpful. Thank you very much. It became a wonderful memory!

いつか行きたいと思ってた縄文杉ツアー！天気も心配、体力も心配、気温も心配と心配だらけでしたが凄く楽しかったし自然を全身で感じれました。なにより達成感が半端ない（笑）ガイドの藪田さんが可愛いかった(*´꒳`*)花や苔や葉の説明や杉の木にも色々な種類がある事や、山や歴史の話などお話ししながら歩けたんでわかりやすかったし楽しめました！！湧水冷たくて美味しかったー。道中、靴が壊れたり飲み物を落としたりとハプニングがありましたが素早く対処してくれてありがたかったです！縄文杉ツアー以外の情報もとても助かりました。ありがとうございました。とても良い思い出になりました！！

We participated as a couple. Although we were both beginners in mountain climbing, thanks to our guide, we were able to spend two enjoyable days with peace of mind.

First, after arriving in Yakushima, we received a call from the tour company the day before, and that evening, our guide called us with details about the pickup time, which made us feel at ease for the morning of the tour. On the first day, we had an early departure and walked for a long time, but fortunately, the weather was great, and we were able to see the magnificent Jomon Sugi, which left us very satisfied! We walked for about 10 hours round trip, but our guide was very kind and adjusted the pace to accommodate those who needed it, so if anyone feels anxious, I believe the guide will adjust the pace if you communicate that. I think it would be good to convey that in advance.

It was said to be a small group tour, but there were three other participants besides us, so on the first day, we walked with five people plus the guide.

On the second day, we chose the Shiratani Unsuikyo early morning course. We opted for the early morning course because we wanted to take it easy in the afternoon, and since we departed early, there were fewer climbers, allowing us to enjoy a private experience at the summit, Taiko Rock, where we could take photos at our leisure, making it the right choice to go early. We had lunch after returning to our accommodation, and in the afternoon, we had a leisurely sightseeing time, so I recommend the early morning course. On this day, there were four other participants, making a total of six people plus the guide.

Perhaps due to the impact of COVID-19, there were fewer tourists and climbers, allowing us to take our time at popular photo spots, which was really nice! As a COVID-19 precaution, our guide took photos of us with their smartphone, which we received after the tour, ensuring proper measures were in place. Additionally, masks were required in the shuttle vehicle and on the bus.

I found this experience very helpful when considering the tour, and I hope it can be of some reference to those who participate next. It was the best tour to fully enjoy the charm of Yakushima, including Jomon Sugi, the moss-covered forest, and Taiko Rock!

夫婦で参加しました。登山初心者の2人でしたが、ガイドさんのおかげで安心して楽しい2日間を過ごすことができました。

まず、屋久島に到着してから(前日に)観光会社から電話があり、その日の夜には担当ガイドさんから詳細の迎え時間の電話があり、安心して当日朝を迎えました。
1日目は朝とても早い出発で長い時間歩きましたが、幸いお天気にも恵まれて素晴らしい縄文杉を見ることができ大満足でした！
往復約10時間と長い時間と距離を歩きましたが、ゆっくりのペースの方に合わせてくださるとても優しいガイドさんだったので、不安な方もガイドさんに伝えたらペースを合わせてくれると思います。その点は、事前に伝えることができればいいなと思いました。
少人数ツアーとのことでしたが、私たち以外に3名参加だったので1日目は5名＋ガイドさんで歩きました。

2日目は白谷雲水峡早朝コースを選びました。午後ゆっくりしたいと思い早朝コースにしましたが、朝早く出発するので登山者も少なく、頂上の太鼓岩に着いたときも貸し切り状態でゆっくり写真を撮れたので、早い時間にして正解でした。
お昼は宿に戻ってきてから摂れ、午後はゆっくり観光の時間にできたので早朝コースをオススメします。
この日は私たち以外に4名参加で計6名＋ガイドさんでした。

コロナも影響してか、観光客、登山している人も少なく、人気の写真スポットでもゆっくり写真を撮ることができ、すごく良かったです！
コロナ対策ということで、自分たちが写る写真はガイドさんのスマホで撮っていただき、ツアー後にいただくという形で、しっかり対策をとっていました。また、送迎の車、バス内ではマスク着用でした。

ツアーを検討する際に、こちらの体験談がとても参考になったので、次に参加される方の参考に少しでもなれば嬉しいです。
縄文杉、苔むす森、太鼓岩…魅力いっぱいの屋久島を満喫できる最高のツアーでした！

The foreign captain entertained us in various ways, so the round trip to the Blue Cave was enjoyable without getting bored. The driving is acrobatic, so those who are prone to motion sickness should not forget to take motion sickness medication!

外国人船長がいろいろ楽しませてくれたので、青の洞窟までの往復も飽きずに楽しめました。運転がアクロバティックなので酔いやすい人は酔い止めを忘れずに！

The reservation for the day after arriving in Ishigaki was made on short notice, but they responded quickly. There was no additional charge for the shuttle service, and we could enjoy the canoeing hands-free.

We participated as a family of three with our 10-year-old child. It's often difficult to take pictures of the whole family during activities, but thanks to the photo service, we were able to enjoy canoeing without any hassle and received more than enough family photos.

We spent a relaxing time canoeing on the crystal-clear waters of Kabira Bay.

On the way to the point, the instructor kindly answered our family's questions about sightseeing spots, for which we are grateful. Thanks to their advice, the remaining days were fulfilling.

石垣に到着してからの翌日の予約
急な予約でしたが素早く対応していただきました
送迎付きの手ぶら追加料金なし

10歳の子供を連れて家族3人で参加
なかなか家族揃ってアクティビティ中写真を撮る事が出来ませんが、こちらは写真サービス付のおかげで手ぶらでカヌーを楽しめておまけに家族揃った写真を充分過ぎるほど頂けました

川平湾の透き通る美しさと、穏やかな水面の上をカヌーでゆったりと過ごせました

ポイント地までの道中もインストラクターの方が私達家族の観光スポットの質問に応えて下さり感謝
アドバイスのおかげで残りの日数も充実したものになりました

The canoeing was very pleasant, blessed with good weather. There's no need to worry at all, even for beginners. All you can hear is the sound of the water and the chirping of birds, with the occasional sound of a train. It's a popular activity on summer Saturdays. They adjusted the departure time for us, allowing us to fully enjoy the Kushiro Wetlands without feeling the hustle and bustle of the busy season. The only disappointment was that we didn't see many animals. It seems that it's quite difficult during the hot summer months. I would like to experience it again in another season.

好天に恵まれて、とても気持ち良かったカヌー。初心者でも全く心配いりません。聞こえてくるのは水の音と鳥のさえずり。時々電車の音が。夏の土曜日で人気のアクティビティ。出発時間を工夫してもらい、繁昌シーズンを全く感じることなく釧路湿原も満喫しました。残念だったのが動物があまり見られなかったこと。夏の暑い時期ななかなか難しいとのことです。また、別の季節に体験したいと思いました。

It was the only day I could visit Jomon Sugi during the four-day holiday. Due to the impact of COVID-19, there were fewer international visitors, allowing me to fully enjoy Japan (the only language spoken around me was Japanese).

Thanks to my application last November, I had the best trekking experience with a friendly, beautiful, and attentive young female guide. I was often greeted by the other guides, who were older men and brothers. During lunchtime, I was served miso soup, and when we took shelter from the rain, I was offered coffee, which warmed me up and boosted my energy.

Since it was a private guide, I could walk at my own pace without worry, which I believe was the key to reaching Jomon Sugi. Good shoes are essential!!

4連休で唯一縄文杉に会いに行けた日でした。
新型コロナの影響もあり、海外の方が少ないので日本を満喫できました。（周囲の言語が日本語だけです。）
昨年の11月に申し込んだおかげか、話しやすく綺麗で気の利く若い女性のガイドさんで最高のトレッキングでした。他のガイド仲間のおじさんお兄さん達からもよく声を掛けられてました。お弁当の時にはみそ汁や、雨宿りの時にはコーヒーも入れて頂き体が温まり元気になれました。
プライベートガイドさんなので、安心して自分のペースで歩けたのが、縄文杉まで行けた秘訣だと思います。靴は、大事!!

The water clarity around Balas Island is incredibly beautiful! The coral reefs are also amazing, making it feel like a dream world. I encountered sea turtles and clownfish while enjoying snorkeling. During our lunch break, we were introduced to a café called "Iriomote no Shonen," the only place on Iriomote Island where you can enter in swimwear, and I really loved both the food and the atmosphere! We also experienced an incredible downpour during that time. In the afternoon, we went on a mangrove tour by stand-up paddleboard. The instructor, Nakamura, who stayed with us from the very beginning, provided a warm and enjoyable experience, making it fun until the very end.

バラス島の海の透明度はもう半端ない綺麗さ！！
サンゴ礁も素晴らしく夢の世界にいる様でした。
ウミガメ、クマノミなども出会えシュノーケルを堪能しました。お昼の休憩では唯一西表島で水着で入れるカフェ「西表の少年」を紹介され、食事も雰囲気もとても気に入りました！その間ものすごいスコールも経験できました。
午後からマングローブツアーをsupにて行いました。朝イチからずっと付いて下さったインストラクターの中村さんの案内もアットホームで楽しく面白く最後の最後まで楽しめました。

I had a reservation for two with a friend, but I heard that a warm low-pressure system developed the day before, and on the day itself, the rain and wind were incredibly intense from the morning. They managed to go ahead with the tour, but due to high waves and strong winds, we could only do the mangrove SUP and the cave exploration.

Exploring the cave was quite an adventure, as it was so dark that without the helmet lights, we couldn't see anything at all—it felt like we were exploring a jungle. There were detailed and fun explanations along the way, and I learned a lot about nature.

The mangrove SUP in the strong rain and wind, which felt like a typhoon, offered a different atmosphere compared to sunny days. I got completely soaked, but once we entered the mangroves, I didn't feel the wind at all, and it felt like we were on another jungle adventure. The destination we reached on the SUP was the Kura Falls, which is said to bring good luck. Because of the heavy rainfall, we experienced a more dynamic atmosphere than usual, which was very moving.

I was anxious about participating in such strong rain and wind, but thanks to the rain, I had an experience that I wouldn't normally get to have. Rain is nice, but I also want to join on a sunny day next time!

友達と2人で予約していましたが前日に温帯低気圧が発生したとのことで当日は朝から雨風共に凄まじい状態でした。なんとか催行していただけるとのことですが、バラス島上陸は波が高く風も強いとのことで、マングローブSUPと鍾乳洞のみになってしまいました。
鍾乳洞散策は、本格的でヘルメットの灯りがないと全く何も見えないくらいまるでジャングルを探検するような楽しみがありました。途中途中で詳しく楽しい説明もあり、自然のこともよく学ぶことができました。
台風レベルに雨風強い中でやったマングローブSUPも晴れている時とはまた違った雰囲気を楽しめました。全身ずぶ濡れになりましたがマングローブに入ると風も感じることなくこれまたジャングルを探検しているような楽しい気持ちになりました。SUPで辿り着いた先は幸運を呼ぶといわれているクーラの滝でした。雨量が多かったこともあり普段の滝の様子よりダイナミックな雰囲気を体験する事ができとても感動しました。
雨風強い中で参加することになりどうなることかと不安でしたが、雨のおかげで普段体験することができないような経験ができました。
雨も良いですが、次は晴れの日にも参加したいと思います！

It was a tour in the rain, but it wasn't too hot, and since it was raining, there were also fewer bugs, which was nice. The tour guide shared fun stories about bears, deer, and plants, and kept everyone entertained with quizzes throughout the tour. In the second half of the Shiretoko Five Lakes tour, the rain stopped, and the mountains reflected beautifully in the second lake, which was wonderful. In the afternoon tour, I was also able to see a mother deer and her fawn up close, which was moving. I definitely want to participate again next time.

雨の中のツアーでしたが、暑すぎず、また雨なのでか虫も少なく良かったです。ツアーガイドの方が熊や鹿、植物につい楽しい話をしていただいたのはもちろん、参加者みんなにクイズをしていただくなど、終始楽しませてきただけました。知床五湖ツアーの後半では雨も止み、二湖にキレイに山が映ってとても良かったです。また午後のツアーでは間近で野生の鹿の親子をみることもでき、感動しました。次回も是非参加したいです。

As a measure against COVID-19, equipment is disinfected regularly. The staff was also very attentive, and as a beginner, I felt safe while diving. I would like to use this service again.

コロナ対策として器材の随時消毒は実施されます。
スタッフさんも丁寧で、初心者の僕が安心で潜れました。
また利用したいです。

This was my third time snorkeling in the Kerama Islands, and this time I participated alone, but the staff were kind and it was a lot of fun. I even encountered a sea turtle, and I want to join again. I wanted to participate again the next day as well.

今回3回目の慶良間諸島シュノーケリング、今回は1人で参加しましたがスタッフの方も優しくて楽しかったです。
ウミガメにもであえたし、また参加したいと思います。

次の日も参加したかった位でした。

This time, I participated with my 60-year-old father. He usually doesn't exercise at all, but thanks to the walking speed and frequent breaks, we were able to reach Taiko Rock safely! The explanations about the trees along the way were easy to understand, and I'm glad we chose this tour. Next time, I want to bring my sister who couldn't come this time. Thank you very much!

今回、60歳の父と2人で参加させていただきました。普段全く運動しない父でしたが、歩くスピードやこまめな休憩を入れてくださったので無事に太鼓岩まで登り切ることができました！道中の木花の説明もわかりやすく、こちらでツアーをお願いしてよかったです。次は今回来れなかった妹も連れてきたいと思います。ありがとうございました！

On August 19th, I enjoyed dolphin watching in Amakusa. The weather was nice and the waves were calm. Shortly after departure, we encountered dolphins. I was with my grandchild, and they were very satisfied as well.

8月19日天草でイルカウォッチングを楽しみましたよ。天気良く波も穏やか。出発するとまもなくイルカに遭遇しました。孫と一緒でしたが孫も大満足でした。

The waters of Kerama are incredibly beautiful, and several turtles appeared. The boat was very comfortable. Although the shower couldn't use shampoo for environmental protection reasons, it was still pleasant to have a fresh water shower and bath towel on board.

慶良間の海が非常に綺麗で亀も数匹現れた。
船も非常に快適。シャワーはシャンプー使えないが環境保護上やむをえない。
それでも船内で真水シャワー＋バスタオルは快適でした。

If it's your first time, I think you would get lost without a tour guide. I participated in the tour and was able to safely reach Jomon Sugi. During the trekking, we shared laughs, which made it enjoyable even when I was physically exhausted and found the return journey tough. The guide was very attentive, teaching us how to take photos and showing us great photo spots.

Fortunately, we were blessed with good weather and didn't have any rain, so we didn't need to use rain gear. Bringing two 500 ml water bottles is sufficient, as you can drink cold water from streams at several points along the way. If you're lucky, you might even see deer!

The hike was challenging, but it became a memorable experience of a lifetime.

初めてならツアーガイドさんがいなければ迷うと思います。ツアーに参加し、安全に縄文杉まで到着することができました。トレッキング中笑いを交えながらだったので、体力が辛くなったとき、復路が辛かった時にも楽しみながら歩くことができました。写真の撮り方やフォトスポットまで教えて下さりとても細部まで丁寧にご対応して頂きました。
幸い天候に恵まれ雨もなく、雨具を使うことはありませんでした。水分は500 mlのペットボトルを2本持っていけば途中で沢の水が何箇所かで冷たい水を飲む事ができます。ダイビングが合えば鹿に会えます！
登山は大変でしたが、一生に残る思い出となりました。

The private Yakushima guided tour was great. They took a lot of photos and provided various explanations, making it the best memory.

貸し切りの屋久島ガイドツアーで良かった。写真をたくさん撮ってくれたり、いろいろな説明してもらえて、最高の思い出になりました。

I experienced marine sports. I was able to try almost all of the marine sports. It was very fun.

マリンスポーツを体験しました。ほぼ全部のマリンスポーツに乗ることができました。とても楽しかったです。

I chose this plan because of the good reviews. They picked us up at the hotel, and everyone on the shuttle bus wore masks as a COVID-19 precaution. The weather was perfect for my first visit to the Kerama Islands, and the scenery was amazing. It was my first time diving, and I had so much fun that I decided to do a second dive. I really appreciated the staff who attended to us.

口コミが良かったのでこちらのプランを選びました。
ホテルまでピックアップしてくれ、送迎バスでも参加者は全員マスクを着用し、コロナ対策をしていました。
初めての慶良間諸島は快晴に恵まれ、最高の景色でした。
ダイビングは初めてだったのですが、とても楽しく、追加で2ダイブ目をしました。
アテンドしてくれたスタッフの方々、大変お世話になりました。

I always wanted to go, but I was worried about my physical stamina... As time passed and my physical abilities declined, I decided to participate. It became the best memory of this summer.

This tour is all-inclusive.

When renting trekking gear, there is a fitting for shoes upon arrival at the airport. The rental shop provides advice. As a result, I returned without any blisters.

A major feature of the tour is the dedicated shuttle service to the trailhead. Using a regular bus has a set schedule, which means you have to stick to that for departures and arrivals at the trailhead. However, we arrived early before other tours, enjoyed a leisurely breakfast, and started at our own pace without being rushed by the bus departure on the way back.

We were fortunate with the weather and our guide. While the rain-soaked cedar forests of Yakushima are said to be mystical, as a beginner, I hoped it wouldn't rain... and my wish was granted with clear skies all day. Our guide, Ryo Takahashi from the Yakushima Guide Association, provided detailed explanations of key locations and kept us engaged with information about Yakushima and personal stories. Thanks to Takahashi's engaging talk, our walking pace increased, allowing us extra time to stop by a special place on the way back.

Meeting the Jomon Cedar was an emotional experience, and I felt it was worth coming. This tour taught me that travel is not just about going to see a specific destination and returning.

一度は行ってみたいけど、体力的に心配…
と思っていて年月が経って、ますます運動機能が低下していたので、思いきって参加してみました。
今夏の最高の想い出になりました。

このツアーは至れり尽くせりです。

トレッキング用具のレンタルでは、空港に着いた時にシューズの試着があります。
レンタル用具屋さんがアドバイスしてくれます。
結果、全く靴ずれせず帰ってこれました。

登山口までツアー専用送迎も大きな特徴です。
定期バス利用ではスケジュールが決まっているので、それに合わせて登山口発着になりますが、
他のツアーが来る前に早く着いて、ゆっくり朝ご飯食べてスタートして、帰りもバスの出発に追われる事なく参加者のペースで歩けます。

今回恵まれたのはお天気とガイドさん。
雨の屋久杉の森も幻想的だそうですが、初心者としては降ってほしくない…その願いが届いて、終日晴天でした。
ガイドは、屋久島ガイド協会から高橋亮さんにご担当いただきました。
ポイントとなる場所の詳しい解説はもちろん、屋久島の情報からプライベートのお話まで、参加者を飽きさせません。
高橋さんのトークライブに私達の歩行ペースも上がったのか、時間に余裕ができて、帰りに特別な場所に寄り道してくださいました。

縄文杉との対面は感動的で、来て良かったと感じた時間でした。
ただそれ以外にも、
目的のものを見に行って帰ってくるだけが旅ではないことを教えてくれたツアーでした。

All the instructors were kind, and it became a very good memory! Our family made the best memories together! Thank you very much.
"Look at me!" "Look over here!" I will never forget this!

インストラクターの方皆んなが親切でとても良い思い出になりました‼︎家族皆んなでサイコーの思い出が出来ました！ありがとうございました。
目を見てぇ〜！こっち見てぇ〜！ずーっと忘れません！

Iriomote Island was my first experience, and I was completely satisfied with the day after participating in this tour!
I enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding in the mangroves, the negative ions at the Lucky Falls, landing on Barasu Island, and exploring the limestone caves, all while having a childlike sense of fun!
Mr. Komatsu, who was in charge, was very unique and made the experience even more interesting!
He took photos with the camera at various spots, allowing me to enjoy the tour with peace of mind!
When I visit Iriomote Island again, I would love to join a tour with ADVENTURE PiPi!
Thank you for the wonderful time!!!

西表島は初めてでしたが、このツアーに参加して大満足の1日でした！！
マングローブの中のSUPや幸運の滝でのマイナスイオン、バラス島上陸から鍾乳洞探検、久しぶりに子供心満載で遊ぶことができました！
担当していただいた小松さんがとてもユニークで、体験以外も面白くしてくださいました！
カメラでの撮影も至る所で撮影してくださり、安心してツアーを楽しめました！
次また西表島に訪れた際は、ADVENTURE PiPiさんのツアーに参加したいと思いました！
楽しい時間をありがとうございました！！！

I was planning to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, but since it was closed, I took my sons, who love turtles, to this place where we could use the Goto Travel discount coupon.

There was a news report overseas stating that children with autism are often drawn to marine life, and it might be true. In the shallow waters where you can stand, a child with autism swam with us for about an hour.

We were able to take great photos, so I think I'll make my summer vacation research project about sea turtles. The kids were thrilled, and it turned out to be the best trip. Thank you very much!

美ら海水族館へ行くつもりだったのですが、休館になってしまったのでGotoトラベルの割引クーポンが使えるこちらで、カメが好きな息子たちを連れて行きました。
海外のニュースで自閉症児は海洋生物に好かれるというものがありましたが、本当かもしれません。　
足の付く浅瀬で、自閉症持ちの子に寄ってきて小一時間一緒に泳いでくれました。
写真もバッチリ撮れたので、夏休みの自由研究の宿題はウミガメの研究にしようと思います。
子供たちも大喜びで、最高の旅になりました。　
ありがとうございました！

Two days prior, I participated in a Pipi adventure tour on Iriomote Island, and while the content was excellent, the guide's personality and knowledge were outstanding. So, I was looking forward to seeing what kind of guide I would have this day as I waited for the pickup in front of the hotel.

Then, a somewhat youthful and charming 22-year-old young man appeared! I got to ride in the front seat, and on the way to Kabira Bay, being chatty myself, I bombarded him with questions to gather information. It turns out this guide (let's call him Kubocchi) came on a company trip, fell in love with Ishigaki, and decided to move here. He has already obtained his boating license, and he’s a promising talent for the future.

Upon arriving at Kabira Bay, we quickly hopped on the stand-up paddleboard! I had thought it looked difficult when I saw it from the side on Iriomote Island, but thanks to Kubocchi's great advice, I surprisingly managed to stand up! (Well, I did fall over about five times, though. Haha.)

I left my phone in the car to avoid it getting wet, but taking photos was not an issue. Despite the experience lasting about two hours, Kubocchi unknowingly took over 100 photos of my family of four with his digital camera! (I received the data later.) Being good at your job has nothing to do with age. Even those who lack confidence in their balance can quickly get used to it and have fun. Plus, since you tend to overeat while traveling, it serves as a nice full-body workout.

In travel, those with many memories come out on top. I think this is a highly recommended experience. Thank you very much for this opportunity!

この2日前にも西表島でピピのアドベンチャーツアーに参加しており、内容自体もちろんですがガイドさんの人柄＆知識が申し分なかったのでこの日もどんなガイドさんかなーと期待してホテル前でピックアップを待つことに。

そして現れたのはまだあどけなさが残る若干22歳の好青年！
さて助手席に乗せてもらい川平湾へ向かう道中、話し好きの自分は色々情報を集めるべく質問攻めへ。笑
なんとこのガイドさん（以下くぼっち）は、社員旅行に来て石垣の魅力に取り憑かれ移住を決めたとのこと^_^
早くも船舶免許も取得したらしく、将来が楽しみな逸材です。

てなわけで川平湾に到着。さっそくサップボートにライドオン！西表島ではサップを横目で見ていて難しそうかなーと思いきや、くぼっちのナイスなアドバイスにより意外にも立てるではないですか！（まあ5回程度転覆しましたが。笑）

携帯は間違いなく水没するので車内に置いて行きましたが、写真撮影は問題無しです。
2時間程度の体験にも拘わらず、くぼっちが知らないうちに家族４人をデジカメで100枚以上撮影してくれていました！（後でデータをいただきました）仕事が出来る出来ないは年齢関係ないですね。
バランス感覚に自信のない方でもすぐに慣れて楽しめるし、旅行ではどうしても食べ過ぎがちになるので程よい全身運動にもなるかと思います。
旅行は思い出が多い人の勝ちですね。
おすすめの体験かと思います。この度はありがとうございました！

We participated as a family.
The exploration began in a tense state in the pitch-black nature without any streetlights.
We encountered large coconut crabs and various insects, and our children's questions were answered kindly.
We also met many rare creatures unique to Okinawa.
The starry sky was in such good condition that we could see the Milky Way, just like in a planetarium.
It became a wonderful memory of our trip.
If there is another opportunity, we would appreciate it.

親子で参加させていただきました。
街頭もなく、真っ暗な自然の中で緊張した状態で散策が始まりました。
大きなヤシガニや様々な昆虫、子供の質問にも丁寧に答えていただきました。
沖縄固有の珍しい生き物にもたくさん出会いました。
星空はプラネタリウムほどの良いコンディションで天の川まで観ることができました。
旅の良い思い出となりました。
また機会がありましたらよろしくお願いいたします。

The guide was rich in local color, kind, and enjoyable. We were able to see many eagles, red-crowned cranes, and Ezo deer. I was impressed by the grandeur of nature.

ガイドさんがローカル色豊かで又、親切で楽しかったです。
鷲、タンチョウ鶴、エゾ鹿もたくさん見れました。
自然の雄大さに感銘しました。

The Blue Cave beach was closed, but they contacted us in detail beforehand, and we still had a great time on the day. Actually, I requested this because I saw reviews saying the president was a nice person, and it was true; the staff were also refreshing and cheerful, and we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

青の洞窟のビーチは閉鎖でしたが、事前に細かく連絡をくださり、当日も楽しめました。
実は、社長さんの人柄が良いとの口コミをみてお願いしたのですが、口コミどおりでスタッフさんも同じく爽やかで明るい方で、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ありがとうございました！

We gathered at 9 o'clock and participated as a family of four (with children in 6th and 4th grades). We started with a thorough explanation and then moved to the Shiribetsu River by bus. (All the staff wore masks, and the bus was ventilated with open windows.) After preparing, we enjoyed rafting for a full hour and a half! The various points of interest were a lot of fun, and the children were thrilled. Above all, the staff were very friendly and wonderful. They also took many photos and videos, and I think this price is a great deal. I hope to participate again in the spring! Thank you, Take-san, Seiya-kun, and TK-san!

9時集合で家族4人(子どもは6年生と4年生)で参加しました。丁寧な説明からスタートし、尻別川へバスで移動。
(スタッフの皆さんはマスク着用、バスは窓を開けて換気してます)
準備をしてラフティングをたっぷり1時間半！
様々なポイントで楽しませてくれ子どもたちも大喜びでした。何よりもスタッフの皆さんがとてもフレンドリーで素晴らしかったです。
そして写真も動画も沢山撮ってくれて、この値段は安いと思います。次回は春に参加出来たら良いかな！タケさん、せいやくん、TKさん、ありがとうございました！
