All Reviews for Stargazing

I wanted to take photos both with two people and a solo version, and they kindly agreed to my requests. They took a lot of pictures and suggested poses that worked well, making it easy for me. They also carefully filmed multiple times to create a story for the video, and the finished photos were sent to me later. They were so beautiful that I was extremely satisfied. Thank you! 😊

2人でも撮りたいし、1人バージョンも取りたいとわがままを言ったところ快く引き受けてくださりました。沢山写真も撮って頂いて、ポーズもこういうのがいいんじゃないかなと言っていただいてやりやすかったです♡動画もストーリーができるように何回も丁寧に撮って頂いて完成した写真が後日送られてきたのですが綺麗すぎて大満足でした。ありがとうございます☺️

We came to Miyako Island for our honeymoon, and I thought it would be nice to have some memorable photos, so we joined this optional tour. The night sky in Miyako Island was very beautiful, and we were able to take wonderful night photos with the stars and the moon! My wife was also very happy, which was great!

新婚旅行で宮古島に来たので、何か思い出に残る写真があれば良いなと思い、このオプションツアーに参加しました。宮古島の夜空はとても綺麗で、星や月とともに素敵なナイトフォトを撮ってもらいました！
妻も大変喜んでくれて、良かったです！

Just before the typhoon, ocean activities were uncertain... I made a reservation, thinking I could still make it even if I signed up in the evening! On the day of the event, they kindly explained that the weather might make it difficult to see the stars and confirmed whether I still wanted to participate.

To be honest, due to the timing, the moon was too bright, so it wasn't a perfect starry sky! However, I was satisfied as I could enjoy moonbathing and saw some stars when the clouds cleared. It was also my first time seeing the moon's patterns clearly through binoculars, which I personally found enjoyable! I was worried about mosquitoes and bugs, but it turns out there weren't many at all. I definitely want to participate again on a clear day!

台風直前で海のアクティビティが危うい…夕方申込でも間に合う！と予約をしました。
当日は到着して天候や星空が見えにくい可能性があることも丁寧に説明していただき、その上で参加されるかどうか確認がありました。
結果から言うと時期的に月が眩し過ぎて満点の星空！ではありませんでしたが月光浴が出来たり、雲がはけたタイミングで星が見えたりと満足でした。双眼鏡でくっきりと月の模様を見たのも初めてだったので個人的には楽しかったです！蚊や虫が不安でした意外といないそうです。次は快晴の時にぜひ参加したいです。

I had wanted to try this for a long time, and it was even more beautiful and fun than I had imagined! The LED lights were cute too! I really appreciated the precise posing instructions. Thank you! ✨

以前から１度してみたかったのですが、想像していた以上に綺麗で楽しく、LEDも可愛かったです！
ポージングも的確に指示して頂き助かりました。ありがとうございました✨

I was moved by the starry sky! The stories about the stars and constellations were fascinating, and I wanted to hear more and more. It's fun to recognize the shapes of the constellations! Thank you for a wonderful time!

満天の星空に感動しました❗️星や星座のお話も興味深く、もっともっと聞きたかったです。星座の形がわかると楽しいですね！素敵な時間をありがとうございました❗

I was lucky to see many stars! I was also moved by seeing the Milky Way for the first time in my life! I got to see many coconut crabs too! During the journey, we talked about various things, and I really enjoyed Iriomote Island! Thank you very much!

運良く星も沢山見れて！人生初の天の川にも感動しました！
ヤシガニも沢山見れました！
移動中も色々な話をしてくださり、西表島楽しめました！ありがとうございました

There were a few clouds, and cancellations were possible, but we headed to the site. Upon arrival, the guide explained, "There are clouds in that direction, and given the current situation, there is a possibility that clouds may come from there." They kindly confirmed with us, "Will you participate?"

During our stay in Ishigaki Island, we experienced the rapidly changing weather, so we decided to go ahead with the tour. The children's cheers when they sat in the reclining chairs (one in middle school and one in fourth grade) were amazing! They were so excited!

After that, there were indeed times when clouds obscured the stars, but the guide provided explanations about the visible stars, and before we knew it, time flew by. In the end, we were able to see a perfectly clear starry sky without a single cloud. I highly recommend the stargazing tour!

雲が少しあり、キャンセルも可能の中、現地へと向かいました。現地に着いてからもガイドの方から、「雲が向こうの方向にあって、今の状況だとあそこから雲が来る可能性があります。」との説明があり、「参加されますか？」と優しく最終確認をしていただきました。
石垣島に滞在している間、天気がコロコロ変わるのを体感していたので、そのままツアーに参加することにしました。リクライニングチェアに座った時の子供たち（中1，小4）の歓声はすごかったです！大興奮でした笑
その後、やはり雲で星が隠れることもありましたが、見えている部分の星の説明をしていただいたりと、あっという間に時間は過ぎ、最後の方は、雲一つない満点の星空を見ることができました。星空ツアーかなりおすすめです！！

The guide was very enjoyable, sharing various stories during the car ride. I was extremely satisfied to see many creatures, including several coconut crabs, crabs, hermit crabs, firefly larvae, and frogs! And above all, I was moved by the breathtaking starry sky and the Milky Way!

行きの車の中でも色々なお話をしてくださって、とっても楽しいガイドさんでした。生き物も、ヤシガニが何匹も見れて、カニ、ヤドカリ、ホタルの幼虫やカエルなどもたくさん見れて、大満足です！あとはなんと言っても満天の星空、天の川が見れて感動しました！

It was very good!
The story about the constellations was informative and interesting.
I just thought it would be nice if the reclining feature could lean back a bit more, and if it's not too difficult, having something like a yoga mat to make it completely flat would be even better.
It was a bit disappointing that it rained heavily at one point, but overall, it was great.
Thank you!

とても良かったです！
星座のお話もためになり、興味深かったです。
ただ、リクライニングがもう少し倒れるといーかなぁと言うのと、もし難しければヨガマット的なものでも良いので完全フラットになれば更に最高かもでした。
途中雨がひどくそれがやや残念でしたが、いずれにしても良かったです。
ありがとうございました！

I had a wonderful time with our tour guide, Mr. Kimura. I was able to see creatures that I normally wouldn't see, and at night on the beach, I could gaze at the starry sky, which was a precious experience! If I come to Ishigaki Island again, I definitely want to participate!

ツアーガイドの木村さんのガイドで楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
普段見ることはできない生物も見見ることができ、また、夜のビーチでは満天の星空を眺めることもでき、貴重な体験をすることできました!また、石垣島に来たら、ぜひ参加したいです!

I had a great time seeing various creatures like coconut crabs, firefly larvae, and hermit crabs! The weather was beautifully clear, and the starry sky was very visible, making it a wonderful memory.

ヤシガニやホタルの幼虫、ヤドカリなど様々な生き物が見れて楽しかったです！ちょうどきれいに晴れて星空もよく見え、良い思い出になりました。

On the first day of our trip, we had planned for a starry sky photo shoot, but we received a call saying that it was going to be difficult due to the clouds, so we decided to reschedule for the next day. However, when we went to the shooting location the next day, we were told that it was also going to be difficult because the clouds had returned, leaving us feeling hopeless as we realized that our only chance was the last night of our trip.

On the final day, just a few hours before the shoot, we received another call saying that it might also be difficult today, but should we give it a try? We decided to head to the shooting location anyway. To our surprise, it seemed that our prayers were answered, as the clouds had moved far away, and the starry sky was visible! A miracle happened on the last day. We were able to take the poses we wanted, and they also made great suggestions, resulting in wonderful photos and the best time. We even captured a shooting star, which was amazing. I would love to request their services again when I come back to Miyako Island. Thank you very much!

旅行初日に予定していた星空フォトでしたが、雲が多く、今日は厳しいとお電話を頂き、次の日にすることに。ところが次の日撮影の場所に行くと、また雲がかかってきてしまい、今日も厳しいと言われて、旅行ラストナイトの明日しかチャンスが無いことに絶望しました。
最終日も数時間前に電話を頂き、今日も厳しいかもしれないが、粘ってみますか？と連絡が。私たちはとりあえず撮影場所に向かいました。するとなんと、祈りが通じたのか、雲はどこか遠くへ行き、星空が見えているではありませんか！！最終日に奇跡が起きました。撮りたいポーズも撮っていただき、また、提案もして頂いて素敵な写真が撮れて最高の
時間でした。流れ星も写って、素敵ですね。また宮古島に来る際はお願いしたいです。ありがとうございました！！

With the guidance of a lively guide, I had a truly valuable experience. I encountered coconut crabs and fireflies, which are experiences you usually can't have. I highly recommend it!

元気なガイドさんの案内のもと、本当に貴重な体験が出来ました。ヤシガニや蛍との出会いなど、普段は経験出来ない体験が出来ます。オススメですよ〜！

I was glad to see many creatures that are not usually seen, such as coconut crabs, scorpions, and the natural monument hermit crabs!

ヤシガニやサソリモドキ、天然記念物のヤドカリとか普段見られない生き物をたくさん見れたのでよかったです！

I participated with my 1-year-old child, and they took many kind and wonderful parent-child photos. Since it was a night with the moon out, we could only see one star, but we got some memorable photos from our trip to Miyako Island. Next time, I want to try again when the starry sky is beautiful! Thank you very much!

1歳の子供と参加しましたが、とても優しく様々な親子ショットを撮影していただきました。月が出ている日だったので星は1つしか見えませんでしたが、宮古島旅行の記念になる写真を撮っていただきました。次は星空が綺麗なタイミングでリベンジしたいと思います☆ありがとうございました！

We participated with six elementary school students and one middle school student. It seems they had a great time actually seeing the stars they learned about in school. The guide provided a detailed and interesting explanation while showing us the state of the sky as the stars became visible. Thank you for kindly answering the children's questions even after the event.

小学生6人中学生1人と参加しました。
学校で習った星を実際に見ることができ、とても楽しかったようです。ガイドの方は、この星が丁度見えるようになったので等空の状態を見ながら詳しくおもしろく説明してくれました。終わった後も子ども達の質問に丁寧に答えて頂きありがとうございました。

I took my 3-year-old and 5-year-old children with me. During the car ride to and from the tour, the guide shared various stories that kept the atmosphere lively, but my younger child fell into a deep sleep due to the late hour and slept through half of the tour (laughs). My timid older child was scared of the night jungle but still went on the exploration. The guide found two coconut crabs for us and showed us various insects and the beautiful starry sky. Although the children were frightened, I think experiencing the vitality and intensity of the night jungle was a valuable experience.

3歳と5歳の子どもを連れて行きました。行き帰りの車ではガイドさんが色んなお話をしてくれて盛り上げてくれましたが、下の子は時間が遅いのもあって爆睡してしまい、ツアー半ばまで寝てしまいました（苦笑）
ビビりの上の子は夜のジャングルに怖いと言いながら探検。ガイドさんがヤシガニを二匹も見つけてくれたり、色んな虫や綺麗な星空をみせてくれました。子どもは怖がってましたが、夜のジャングルの生命力や迫力を肌で感じるのも良い経験だったと思います。

I searched for and booked a night tour to enjoy my trip to Ishigaki without wasting time. Since I had never experienced entering a jungle before, the night jungle experience and stargazing made for a satisfying tour!

無駄無く石垣旅行を楽しむために夜のツアーを探して申し込みしました。
ジャングルに入ること自体経験ない所、夜のジャングル体験、星空観測もあったので満足なツアーでした！

I heard that the temperature has dropped, making it a day when you're less likely to encounter insects, but the mountain path at night, the dark sea, and the starry sky were all new experiences for a city kid like me. I was lucky to see a coconut crab up close enough to touch!

気温が下がり、虫に遭遇しずらい日だと聞きましたが、夜の山道と暗い海、星空、街育ちの子供には目新しいものばかりでした。
ヤシガニも触れるくらいすぐ近くで見られてラッキーでした！

I used this service during my 3-night, 4-day trip to Miyako Island.

From the morning of the first day, the weather looked suspicious, and as expected, we had to postpone the shooting at night due to difficult conditions. The next day, the clouds spread again, and we had to postpone once more. On the final day, the staff suggested, "If we push back the shooting time, we might be able to capture it. Please let us try," and we headed to the location.

As a result, after waiting about 10 minutes for the clouds to clear, a stunning starry sky unfolded before us, and we were able to shoot under the vast night sky and the Milky Way! The photographer also gave us advice on posing, making it a fun and unforgettable experience!

3泊4日の宮古島旅行で利用させて頂きました。
初日の朝から雲行きが怪しく、案の定、夜は撮影困難ということで延期。
次の日も雲が広がり、この日も延期。最終日はスタッフさんに「撮影時間を後ろ倒しにしたら撮れるかも。チャレンジさせてほしい」と言って頂き、現場に向かいました。
その結果、10分程度雲待ちすると満開の星空が広がり、視界いっぱいの夜空と天の川の下で撮影することができました！
ポージングもカメラマンさんにアドバイスして頂き、楽しく最高の体験になりました！

I was worried it might be cloudy, but fortunately, it was clear on the day, and I was able to see a perfect starry sky. I've been to several places with beautiful starry skies, but this might be the best. It was really great.
The jungle exploration was also very satisfying, as I encountered several coconut crabs and purple land hermit crabs.

曇らないか心配でしたが、当日は運良く晴れて、満点の星空を見ることができました。星空が綺麗なところにいくつか行ったことがありますが、ここが一番かもしれません。すごく良かったです。
ジャングル探索もヤシガニや紫オカヤドカリに何匹も会えて、大満足です。

I participated in the Stargazing Jungle Night Tour this time. First of all, the staff who guided us were bright and approachable, and they were very kind, allowing us to have a truly fulfilling time! As for the tour, both the starry sky and the jungle wildlife were in the best condition. We not only saw a sky full of stars but also shooting stars and the Milky Way for the first time in my life. The wildlife included a big hermit crab, sea snakes, and island-specific insects, all of which I saw for the first time! If I have the opportunity to visit Ishigaki Island again, I would definitely like to sign up!

今回、星空ジャングルナイトツアーに参加させてもらいました。まず案内していただいたスタッフさんが、明るく接しやすい方で、非常に親切に接していただき、非常に充実した時間を過ごすことが出来ました！ツアーに関しても、星空もジャングルの野生動物もベストなコンディションで、満点の星空はもちろんのこと、流れ星や人生初の天の川まで見れ、野生動物ではビッグサイズなヤドカリ、ウミヘビ、島特有サイズの虫など人生初で見れたものばかりでした！また石垣島へ訪れる機会がありましたら、ぜひ申し込みたいと思います！

We participated with two adults and a 4-year-old child. We were very satisfied as we could see not only the coconut crabs but also many other creatures, along with a beautiful starry sky. The guide was very curious and considerate of our lively child, which was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful time. This tour is highly recommended. Thank you very much.

夫婦2名と4歳の子連れで参加しました。
ヤシガニのほか多くの生き物のほか、綺麗な星空も見ることができて大変満足しています。
ガイドさんは好奇心旺盛でやんちゃな子供にも気遣ってくれて非常に助かりました。
とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。おすすめのツアーです。
ありがとうございました。

The guidance was smooth, and the person in charge was also from Kansai, making it easy to talk. The tour content was great, with beautiful stars, good weather, and an excellent guide!

案内もスムーズで担当の方が同じ関西出身の方で話がしやすかったです。
ツアー内容も、星がきれいで天気もよくガイドも最高でした！

There was no shuttle service, so we took a taxi to the location. We arrived about 10 minutes before the meeting time, but had to wait about 15 minutes longer than scheduled because the previous group’s shoot was running late. Once the shoot started, they gave clear instructions, and we were able to enjoy the session. The photos taken with great attention to detail turned out to be excellent.

特に送迎などはなく、タクシーで現地へ向かいました。集合時間の10分前くらいに着くと、前の組の撮影が押していたため、予定時刻より15分ほど待つことになりました。撮影がはじまると、スムーズに指示を出してくれて、楽しく撮影できました。拘りを持って撮影してもらった写真はとても良い写真ばかりでした。

There are no special facilities, but the beautiful starry sky with no lights around is the ultimate luxury. The explanation was enjoyable too. I thought the time would be short when I participated, but it was just the right length for families with children.

特別な施設は無いが、周囲に何も明かりがないきれいな星空が最高の贅沢。解説も楽しかった。時間は短いのかなと思って参加したが、子連れには丁度良い長さだった。

The instructions for the meeting place were unclear, yet they showed displeasure for not arriving on time. There were no other tour participants, so it wasn't a situation where anyone would be inconvenienced. I didn't feel any hospitality. I didn't see a single animal. I would have been better off relaxing in my room. I cannot recommend this at all.

待ち合わせ場所の指示が不明確なのが悪いのに、時間通りにつかなかったことに不機嫌をあらわにしてくる。他のツアー参加者もおらず、誰に迷惑かかる状況でもないのに。ホスピタリティを感じない。1匹も動物も見れなかった。これなら部屋でゆっくりしてたほうがマシだった。全くお勧めできない。

We had a wonderful family photo session for four. I was worried because it wasn't a sunny day, but perhaps it was because of the great location that we were able to see a beautiful starry sky, which was amazing!

The photos captured many stars that we couldn't see with the naked eye, making them even more stunning. The pictures taken with the illumination were also very cute.

I highly recommend it because the photographer leads the session in a great way!

家族4人でとても素敵に撮っていただきました。晴天ではなかったので心配でしたが、撮影場所がよいからでしょうかキレイな星空が見え最高でした！

写真は肉眼で捉えきれなかった星もたくさんあり、より映えます。イルミネーションを使っての写真もとても可愛かったです。

カメラマンの方が良い感じにリードしてくれるのでオススメです！

This time, I went to Ishigaki Island for a 2-night, 3-day trip and did various things. The best experience for my 6-year-old daughter, myself, and my mother was the stargazing tour. The weather was perfect, and we could see the Milky Way beautifully. The explanations of the stars using a laser pointer were incredibly easy to understand, making it feel like a real planetarium for an hour that flew by. I would love to come back in a different season to see other stars. Thank you very much.

今回、２泊３日で石垣島へ行き色々な事をしました。6年の娘も私、母親も一番良かったのが星空鑑賞ツアーです。
最高のお天気で天の川も綺麗に見えました。レーザーポイントを使って星の説明は凄く分かりやすく本当の星でのプラネタリウムであっという間の１時間でした。また、違う星の見える季節にも来たいです。ありがとうございました。

Thanks to the detailed explanations from staff member Nakamura, I was able to enjoy a wonderful night tour! They vividly explained interesting facts about spiders, insects, and constellations, which revived my childhood curiosity. I also finally spotted the long-awaited coconut crab! I was able to observe both a large coconut crab and a baby coconut crab. Although it was a tour, I was also shown beautiful beaches with stunning starry skies, allowing me to have a great time even after the tour. At the same time, I was able to appreciate the vastness and mystery of Miyako Island, and the hour and a half flew by. Thank you very much for this experience!

スタッフの中村さんの丁寧な解説のおかけで、楽しいナイトツアーを堪能することができました！蜘蛛や虫、星座の豆知識を生き生きと説明してくださり、子供の時の好奇心が蘇ってきました。そして念願のヤシガニもついに発見！大きいヤシガニと赤ちゃんヤシガニを観察することができました。ツアー街ですが、星空が綺麗なビーチも教えていただき、ツアー後にも楽しい時間を過ごす方ができました。同時に宮古島の広大さや神秘性も堪能でき、あっという間の1時間半でした。この度はありがとうございました！
