All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

The elementary school children and their parents were also beginners at snorkeling, but they were very kind and accommodating. It was amazing to see a sea turtle, which was a long-held dream! We're talking about wanting to go to Miyako Island again!

小学生の子供達、親もシュノーケリング初心者でしたが、とっても優しい対応でした。
念願の海ガメを見れて、最高でした！
また宮古島に行きたいね！と話してます。

It seems that the wind direction is important, and although it was sunny, we experienced stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the river.

The advantages of the river include enjoying changing scenery and the ease of paddling due to the lack of waves. Compared to a surfboard, it's easier to maintain balance, and even the upper-grade elementary school children who participated were able to operate it easily. The shade of the mangrove trees was cool, and the dappled sunlight created an indescribable atmosphere.

Of course, sunscreen is essential, but it's also a good idea to wear clothes that can get wet. I think having sunglasses would be beneficial as well.

風向きが重要のようで、晴天でしたが川でのSUP体験に。
川のメリットは景色の変化を楽しめること、波がないため漕ぎやすいこと。
サーフボードと比べてもバランスが取りやすく、一緒に参加した小学校高学年の子どもでも簡単に操作できていました。マングローブの木陰は涼しく、木漏れ日が差してなんとも言えない空間です。
日焼け止めはもちろんですが、上には濡れていもいい服を着ましょう。サングラスもあった方がよいと思います。

It was raining on the morning of the event. I hesitated about whether to participate, but I went to the meeting place and decided to join since it was a special opportunity.

By the time we were ready to start, the rain was pouring down. I wondered if it would be okay, but once I got on the kayak, the kids were super excited.

The guide was very attentive, and before I knew it, the tour was over. It would have been even better if it had been sunny, but it was still a very memorable tour. I would love to participate again when I visit Okinawa.

当日の朝は雨。参加しようか迷いながらも集合場所に行き、やはりせっかくだし参加する事に。
準備をしてはじまる頃には大粒の雨。大丈夫かな、、、と思いながらもカヤックに乗ってスタートしてみると、子供たちも大興奮。笑
ガイドさんの案内も丁寧であっという間に終わってしまいました。
晴れていたらもっと最高でしたが、それでもとても記念に残るツアーでした。
また沖縄に行った際には参加したいです。

On the day I arrived in Yakushima, I picked up my rental items at the port and then returned them to the hotel front the next day after the tour. It was very helpful since I had little luggage and it didn't take much time to go pick up the rentals. I think the prices are reasonable too! The guide was very knowledgeable, and I was able to enjoy climbing even the tough paths. They also taught us how to take secret photos... Although I participated alone, it was nice that they made an effort to help everyone get along.

It would be even more helpful if the preparation for the lunch boxes could be clearly stated. I apologize for any inconvenience caused by the different accommodations for departure and return, but thank you for your kind assistance.

屋久島到着日に港にレンタル品を受け取り、
ツアー翌日ホテルフロントに預ける流れです。
荷物も少なく、レンタルしに行く手前もかからず、大変助かりました。
お値段的にも良心的だと思います！
ガイドさんも知識が豊富で、しんどい道も楽しく登れました。
秘密の写真の撮り方も教えてくれたり…
1人参加でしたが、みんなが仲良くなるよう工夫してくださったのもよかったです。

お弁当の準備について分かり易く明記頂けるとなお助かります。
出発の宿と帰着の宿が異なることでご迷惑をおかけしてしまいましたが
快く御対応頂きありがとうございました。

Unfortunately, it rained while I was trekking at Oishi Forest Park, but there were free umbrellas available in various spots, allowing me to fully enjoy the power spot without any inconvenience. I think it would have been even better if the weather had been nice...

あいにくの天気で大石林山をトレッキングする時に雨に降られましたが、無料の貸し傘がところどころに置かれていて、不自由することなくパワースポットを満喫できた。
天気が良ければなお良いとは思いますが・・・。

Due to strong winds, we couldn't experience the Kawahe Bay, and instead went to the Miyara River mangroves, which was disappointing... However, the cheerful staff member, Ike-chan, was very kind and ended up helping my husband in the end! It became an unforgettable and fun memory of Ishigaki Island.

強風で川平湾での体験出来ず、宮良川マングローブのグレーズになり、残念…でも明るいスタッフの池ちゃんが、とっても人柄が良くて、最後は主人を引っ張って下さいました！忘れられない石垣島の楽しい思い出になりました。

We participated with five people aged 3 to 60, and the staff were kind. They mentioned that the children would be looked after by the staff, so the adults could enjoy themselves, and indeed, the parents were having a great time while the kids were taken care of. Even though we were just off the coast, we were amazed by the beautiful blue and black-and-white tropical fish swimming around. The children were also delighted to see the blue fish through the box glasses. Unfortunately, the experience ended just as the kids were getting used to it. I would definitely like to participate again if the opportunity arises.

3歳～60歳の5人で参加、スタッフの方は親切で、子供はスタッフが見ていますので、大人の方も楽しんでくださいとの言葉、親は子供そっちのけで楽しんでいました。海岸からすくそこなのに、きれいな青色や、黒白の熱帯魚が泳いでいる姿に感動していました。子供も箱眼鏡を使って青い魚が見えたと喜んでいました。残念なのは、子供が慣れてきたころに終了となってしまったことです。また、機会があればぜひ参加したいと思っています。

I had a very enjoyable time!
It was a windy day, but the weather was nice, and I was able to paddleboard comfortably.
It was fun not only to paddle but also to see some tricks and learn them!
I was able to have wonderful conversations with the other participants as well!
There was a little mishap when my camera ran out of battery, but they took plenty of photos with their smartphones!
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much, Kuri-chan! (＾_＾)

とても楽しい時間を過ごせました！
風が強かった日でしたが、お天気にも恵まれ、気持ちよくSUPをすることができました♪
漕ぐだけではなく、技を見せてもらったり、それを教えてもらったり、面白かったです！
一緒に体験した方々ともお話できて素敵な時間を過ごすことができました！
カメラの充電が切れてしまったハプニングもありましたが、スマホでも写真をたくさん撮ってくださいました！
ありがとうございました！
くりちゃん本当にありがとう〜（＾_＾）

The instructor who guided us was working very hard. However, perhaps due to being overwhelmed, I didn't feel much consideration for the children. Even after returning to the store, there was an unclear atmosphere about when we could leave, and we ended up having to speak up to indicate we were leaving... I thought it was normal for someone in charge to thank us or say something as we left, but it felt more like we were leaving on our own, which didn't leave a very good impression.

引率してくださったインストラクターさんは一生懸命お仕事されてました。
ただ、余裕がないのか、子供への気遣いがあまり感じられませんでした。
お店に帰ってからも、いつ帰っていいのかよく分からない雰囲気で
こちらから声を掛けて帰る始末…
今日はありがとうございました、とか、担当の方からの声がけで帰るのが当たり前だと思っていたんですが、
勝手に帰って感が強くてあんまり良い印象は残せませんでした。

We participated in a tour to Jomon Sugi on April 27 and Taiko Rock on April 28 as a couple aged 61 and 58. We have experience in trekking and climbing, but this time, due to the long distance of 22 km round trip and our desire to hear various stories, we booked a private guide for the first day. However, there was not much explanation along the way, and when I fell and injured myself at a stream, the guide only mentioned that they had disinfectant but did not provide any treatment on the spot. We continued walking for another 20 minutes and finally arrived at the next rest area, where we had to take care of the wound ourselves. The guide had 26 years of experience, but I wished for a bit more consideration.

61歳と58歳の夫婦で4/27縄文杉+4/28太鼓岩までのツアーに参加しました。トレッキングや登山は夫婦で何度も経験がありますが、今回は往復22kmと長丁場なのと色々な話を聞きたくて初日のみプライベートガイドを申し込みました。しかし道中大した説明もなく、また私が沢場で転んで怪我をした際にも「消毒薬を持ってる」と言ったきりその場で処置する事もなく更に20分歩き続け、漸く次の休憩場所に着いたところで自分達で傷の手当てをしました。
経験26年の熟練ガイドさんでしたが、もう少し気遣いが欲しかったです。

It was my first time rafting, and I had a great time! The time flew by, and I wanted to play more.

I was also happy to be able to take powerful photos and videos up close while playing with the boat and kayaking!

The instructors were cheerful and made it fun. I would definitely like to do it again if I have the chance!

初めてのラフティングでしたが、凄く楽しめましたー！時間があっという間に過ぎ、もっと遊びたいと思いました。

ボートを使って遊んだり、カヤックで近くから迫力ある写真やビデオを残して頂けるのも嬉しかったです！

インストラクターさん達も明るく楽しかったっす。また機会があれば是非お願いしたいです！

It was my first time diving, and the staff were kind and it was fun.

The weather was cloudy and the water visibility was low, which was disappointing. I felt very secure with the number of staff present. Since it was my first time diving and I couldn't equalize my ears very well, I ended up not being able to concentrate on the dive, and before I knew it, the 20 minutes were over. There were two customers for each instructor, which made me feel at ease.

Also, it was nice that there was a slide on the water to enjoy during the waiting time.

What was disappointing were the restrooms and shower rooms. As soon as I entered the restroom, there was detergent on the toilet bowl.

What I really disliked was the shower room. I was told in a strong tone by a female staff member that I must take off my wetsuit when showering. There were no doors or partitions in the shower, which made me very hesitant. There are people who are used to wearing swimsuits and those who are not. I would appreciate it if more consideration could be given to this. Unless this is improved, I don't think I will participate again.

I was satisfied with the snorkeling itself.

初めてのダイビングでしたが、スタッフの方が優しくて楽しかったです。

天気が曇りで海の透明度が低くて、残念でした。
スタッフの方の数が多くてとても安心できました。
ダイビングが初めてで、耳抜きがあまりできなくて、そのまま、ダイビングに行ったので、ダイビングに集中出来ずにあっという間に20分が終わってしまいました。
インストラクター1人に対してお客さんが2人でダイビングだったので安心できました。

また、待ち時間も海の上の滑り台もあってよかったです。

残念だったのは、トイレとシャワールームです。
トイレが入った瞬間に便器に洗剤がついていました。

本当に嫌だったのはシャワールームです。
シャワーを浴びる際には、必ずスウェットスーツを脱ぐようにと女性のスタッフから強い口調で言われました。
シャワーにはドアも仕切りもなく、とても躊躇しました。
水着に慣れている方もそうでない方もいらっしゃいます。
もう少し考慮して頂けたら嬉しいです。
そこが改善されない限り、もう参加しないと思います。

シュノーケリング自体は満足です。

I participated in a tour during Golden Week, and despite the large number of people, the staff provided attentive service, which made it very enjoyable. Even with so many people, they took a lot of photos for us, which was great! At the Blue Cave, we entered the cave and then went to a point where we could see beautiful fish. The fish were stunning. The saltwater rinse after snorkeling was also a lot of fun! I almost lost my balance on the SUP at first, but later I got the hang of it. My first SUP experience was so much fun! Thank you very much! (^^)

ゴールデンウィークにツアーに参加し、人数多い中でも 丁寧な対応をしていただき、とても楽しめることができました。人数が多くても写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、嬉しかったです!!青の洞窟では洞窟の中に入り、そのあとは美しい魚が見れるポイントまで行きました。魚が美しかったです。シュノーケル後の滝で塩水流しもとても楽しかったです!!SUPは最初は少しバランスを崩しそうになりましたが後に乗り方を掴めるようになりました。初SUP楽しすぎました!!ありがとうございました(^^)

I was nervous about trying SUP for the first time, but it was so much fun. The waves were calm, and the instructor was very thorough in teaching us, so I’m glad I took on the challenge.

In one day, we could do SUP, snorkeling, and waterfall climbing, which was really interesting. However, since the tour includes people who participate only in the morning or afternoon, along with those like us who joined for the whole day, I felt that the lunch break was too long and the waiting time was a bit of a waste. I recommend it for those who want to enjoy a full day at a leisurely pace.

初めてのSUPでドキドキしていましたが、とても楽しかったです。波もおだやかでインストラクターの方はていねいに教えて頂けるのでチャレンジしてよかったです。
１日でSUP、シュノーケリングや滝クライミングもできるしおもしろかったです。
ただ、ツアーは午前だけの人と午後だけの人、私たちのように終日参加の人が一緒にやるので、昼食時間が長く待ち時間がもったいないと思いました。１日ゆっくり楽しもうと思っている人にはオススメです。

Before participating, I was worried about encountering brown bears, as they can be scary. During the morning tour, a brown bear appeared during the lecture, so the afternoon tour was moved up, and I was able to see a black woodpecker. There were also Ezo deer. I was concerned about whether the tour would proceed, but since the brown bear left, the tour went ahead, and we were able to see a mother and cub brown bear by the lakeshore after progressing to the second lake. Just before that, the crows started cawing, which was a sign. We turned back without seeing the first lake, but the tour went ahead, and it was fantastic.

参加前は、ヒグマは怖いので会わないようにしたいと思っていました。午前中のツアーがレクチャー中にヒグマが出たため、午後のツアーが先になりクマゲラを見ることができました。蝦夷鹿もいました。催行できるか心配でしたがヒグマがいなくなったため催行になり二湖まで進んだところで湖岸にヒグマの親子を見ることができました。直前にカラスが鳴きだしたため兆しがありました。一湖は見ずに引き返しましたがツアーが催行されて最高でした。

I had always wanted to see Jomon Sugi. Thanks to our veteran guide, Mr. Sueno, we were able to enjoy a safe and fun trip. He provided detailed and enjoyable explanations, and he also considered our pacing, allowing us to return full of energy. The rental gear was a bit worn, but it was great that they made sure to fit the shoes beforehand. It was also helpful that the bus went directly to the trailhead. I truly felt that choosing this plan was the right decision.

ずっと行きたかった縄文杉。ベテランガイドの末野さんのお陰で楽しく安全に行くことができました。色々な説明も詳しく楽しくまたペース配分も考えてくれて最後まで元気に戻ることができました。レンタルの品は、少々年気が入ってはいましたが、靴のサイズ合わせを事前にしてくれるなどきちっとしてくれてよかったです。
バスが登山口まで直行で行けるのも助かりました。このプランを頼んで良かったと心から思いました。

Since it was my first trekking experience to Jomon Sugi, I hired a guide. It took about 10 hours round trip, and thanks to the guide, I had a great time (even though I felt my physical limits, haha). They recommended lunch spots and shared information about Yakushima, plants, and climbing experiences abroad. The miso soup was delicious too!

初縄文杉トレッキングだったので、ガイドさんを頼みました。往復10時間、ガイドさんのおかげで(体力の限界を感じましたが笑)大変楽しかったです。おススメのランチや屋久島の事、植物や海外での登山のお話などなど。お味噌汁も美味しかったです！！

Flying in the sky is really great... The weather was nice, and I had a lot of fun! I definitely want to do it again. Next time, I want to try jumping off a mountain. Thank you!

やっぱり空飛びはいいですね…天気も良くて、楽しかった！絶対またやりたいと思います。今度は山から飛び降りるやつやりたいです。ありがとうございました！

I participated in the afternoon tour. We took a boat for about 30 minutes to the snorkeling point. The weather wasn't great, but I was impressed by the beautiful sea. The snorkeling was amazing, and I thought I would like to try diving next time. There was plenty of time, and all the staff were fun people, making it a highly recommended tour. If I have the opportunity again, I would love to join!

午後からのツアーに参加。船で30分程かけシュノーケリングのポイントに向かいました。天気はイマイチでしたがキレイな海に感動。シュノーケリングも最高でしたが、次はダイビングをしたいなと思いました。時間もたっぷりあり、スタッフの皆さんも楽しい人ばかりでおすすめのツアーです。また機会がありましたら宜しくお願いします！

Great experience and friendly staff highly recommended for beginners to scuba and diving. Would do again in a heartbeat.

We participated as a family of four. Although we were not very strong, thanks to Kazuya's support, we were able to complete it successfully. In the end, I, as the dad, might have been the weakest one (laughs).

家族4人で参加しました。非力な我が家でしたが、カズヤさんのサポートあり無事完遂出来ました。最後はオヤジの私が一番非力だったかもしれません（笑）。

The explanation using a pointer and the distribution of binoculars to individuals were great. I got lost because I couldn't find the meeting place. Since it was held at night and it was dark, I couldn't see anything even when they mentioned a blue container. Being in a field in Ishigaki Island at night, I was honestly scared when they said that there might be habu snakes or other poisonous creatures, but that it was okay because they had set up nets. I was worried if someone was keeping watch. Also, when I arrived at the meeting place, I carelessly got out of the car, but later I thought it was reckless since I could have been bitten by a habu. I would like them to inform everyone not to get out of the car after explaining the dangers, even if they are the first to arrive.

ポインタ使っての説明や個人に双眼鏡を配布いただいての説明がありよかった。
現地集合場所がわからず迷ってしまった。
夜の開催で暗くて見えないので青いコンテナとか言われても見えない。
石垣島の畑で晩なので、ハブとか有毒生物が出てくる可能性がありネットを張ってるから大丈夫と現地で言われても正直怖かった。誰か見張ってくれてるか心配だった。また、現地集合で到着した際に安易に車の外に出てしまったが後で考えればハブに噛まれていたかもしれず軽率だったと思った。最初に到着しても危険性を説明した上で車外に出ないように周知して欲しい。

It was a luxurious tour that fulfilled my desire to play with a SUP and see the beautiful ocean while snorkeling. Although the weather was a concern, our guide checked the weather forecast right up until the last moment, allowing us to do SUP at Kabira Bay. There were no other groups at the spot, creating a private beach atmosphere. We enjoyed riding together and taking photos in various poses. The view while standing on the board was also amazing. Kabira Bay truly looked like something out of a guidebook. Snorkeling felt like swimming inside an aquarium. It was the best day to fully enjoy Ishigaki Island. I will definitely come back again!

SUPで遊びたいし、シュノーケルで綺麗な海も見たい。
そんな要望に応えてくれる贅沢なツアーでした。天候が不安視されましたが、ガイドさんが直前まで天気予報を見ながら検討してくださり川平湾でSUPが出来ました。ポイントは我々の集団しかおらずプライベートビーチのような雰囲気。
二人乗りしてみたり、色々なポーズで写真撮ってみたりと楽しめました。ボードに立ちながらの眺めも最高です。川平湾は、本当にガイドブックのような景色でした。シュノーケルも、水族館の中を泳いでるかのようでした。石垣島を満喫できた最高の一日です。また絶対来ます！

It was my first experience with canoeing and snorkeling!!
During the canoeing, there were moments when the wind was strong, and I thought I might fall in and get swept away, but those incidents turned into funny memories!!
The instructors were all very kind, and my 5-year-old daughter had a great time!
They also recommended a great izakaya and we stopped by a juice shop that makes juice from sugarcane, which was delicious!
In the Blue Cave, my daughter found a heart-shaped coral, and the instructor kept it for her until we finished snorkeling, saying, "It's rare to find something like this!"
They took a ton of photos and sent all of them via LINE, creating the best memories!!
In the car on the way back, my daughter was snoring and fast asleep... haha.
But the next day, she kept saying, "It was so much fun! I want to go again!"
It was really enjoyable!!
I definitely want to use this service again when I come back to Okinawa!!
Thank you very much!

初めてのカヌー&シュノーケリング体験でした！！
カヌーでは途中で風が強かったりして
落ちてSAPが流される〜とか
ハプニングもあったけど
それも笑えていい思い出になりました！！
インストラクターのお兄さん達も
みんな優しくて5歳の娘も楽しんでました！
おすすめの居酒屋さんも紹介してくれたり
サトウキビで作ったジュース屋さんにも
みんなで寄ってジュースも美味しかったー！
青の洞窟では娘がハートの珊瑚を
見つけて「ありそうでないんですよ」
とお兄さんがシュノーケリング終わるまで持っといてくれました！！
写真もめちゃくちゃ撮ってくれて
全てLINEで送ってくれて
最高の思い出です！！
最後送迎の車の中で娘は
イビキかいて爆睡……笑
でも次の日も「めっちゃ楽しかった〜また行きたい」とずっと言うてました！！
ほんとに楽しかったです！！
また、沖縄来た時はぜひ利用したいです！！
ありがとうございました！

I participated the day after making a round trip to Jomon Sugi. My legs were still fatigued, and I joined while feeling exhausted. Since I had anticipated this, I chose to go only to the Mononoke Forest instead of the Taiko Rock course, but I was very satisfied with the healing scenery.

前日に縄文杉往復した翌日に参加。
足の疲労が抜け切れておらず、ひーひー言いながらの参加でした。
事前に予想していた事だったので、太鼓岩コースではなくもののけの森までにしましたが、とても癒される風景に大満足でした。

Since I was participating with elderly family members, I booked a private guided tour to avoid causing any inconvenience with our pace. The guide adjusted to our speed and provided precise advice at key points, such as, "If we keep this pace, we can avoid getting stuck in traffic at Jomon Sugi, so let's keep going." As a result, my companions were able to reach Jomon Sugi, and we are very satisfied. Thank you.

高齢の家族との参加だったため、ペースで迷惑をかけてはいけないと貸切ガイドツアーを申し込みました。
こちらのペースに合わせて頂きつつ、ポイントポイントで「このペースだと○○杉では渋滞に巻き込まれないで済むので頑張りましょう」など、的確なアドバイスを頂きました。
結果として、同伴者も縄文杉までたどり着くことができ、非常に満足しております。ありがとうございます。

This was my first experience with SAP! It was helpful that they came to pick me up near my accommodation. The guide during the transfer to Ishigaki Island was also interesting and left a strong impression on me.

Even though it was my first time with SAP, the explanations were clear, and once I got used to it, I could move around freely on my own. There were staff members nearby, so I felt secure and was able to enjoy myself.

It was raining this time, but the waves were not too strong, making it suitable for beginners. Also, since there are no changing rooms, it might be good to have something easy to throw on for the return trip!

I made some wonderful memories! Thank you!

今回初めてのSAP体験でした！
滞在先の近くまで迎えに来てくれて助かりました。移動中の石垣島ガイドも面白くて印象に残っています
初めてのSAPでしたが分かりやすく説明してくれて慣れてきたら一人で自由に移動し、近くにスタッフの方がいるので安心して楽しむことができました
今回は雨が降っていましたが、波もあまりなく初心者向けでした 。また 更衣室がないので帰りは簡単に羽織れるものがあるといいかもしれないです！
楽しい思い出ができました！ありがとうございます

We were really lucky to have beautiful weather for our hike, with clear skies. Although we couldn't see the sparkling moss because it hadn't rained, the view from Taiko Rock was breathtaking. Our guide was like a master of iPhone photography, skillfully using the panorama feature to take various photos, which we really appreciated. We enjoyed seeing many Yakusugi trees, starting with Jomon Sugi. Since we descended about two and a half hours earlier than planned, we took a break by the Anbo River, took off our hiking boots and socks, and splashed our tired feet in the water, which was a lovely experience. It was an 11-hour journey, but there wasn't a moment when we felt exhausted, and we were able to enjoy the entire route. I think this is a tour I would recommend to everyone.

天気に恵まれ、快晴のハイキング日和だったのは、本当にラッキーでした。
雨が降ってなかった分、キラキラの苔は見れませんでしたが、太鼓岩からの眺めは絶景でした。
ガイドさんが、iPhoneカメラの達人のような方で、パノラマ機能を駆使して色々な写真を撮ってくださったのがとてもありがたかったです。
縄文杉をはじめ、色々な屋久杉を満喫できました。
下山が予定より2時間半ほど早かったので、途中安房川の沢に降りて、登山靴と靴下を脱いで川の水でちゃぷちゃぷしながら、疲れた足を癒したのもステキな時間でした。
11時間の行程でしたが、しんどくなる時間帯もなく、全ての道のりを楽しむことができました。
皆さんにオススメしたいツアーだと思いました。

The weather was nice, and the day after the full moon made the moon very beautiful! Although there were fewer visible stars, I was able to see many stars using binoculars. The explanations were also easy to understand! It became a great memory. Thank you!

天気もよく、満月の次の日ということで月がとてもきれいでした！その分みえる星の数は少なかったですが、双眼鏡も使いながら沢山星をみられました。解説もわかりやすかったです！
よい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

This was an great experience. From start to finish, the staff and especially Mayu took the time to inform us of safety procedures and other important details. The colors inside the cave were majestic! The fish were bright and plentiful. Your in good hands with the team they put together here. Would recommend! Thanks!
