All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

This isn't my first time, but I chose to spend 40 minutes on the glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay. You can clearly see the boundary line between the freshwater coral reef and the seawater. The pilot asked, "Shall we go a little ahead?" and immediately a guest exclaimed, "There it is! It was swimming!" The pilot was surprised and said, "Really?" We were able to see several sea turtles slowly walking by. In Hawaiian superstition, turtles bring good luck... It turned out to be a fun trip. I'm glad I could share enjoyable moments with everyone on board. I've sent the videos I took to my friends and I'm reminiscing about it myself.

初めてではないですが40分の時間を費やすには川平湾でのグラスボード乗ったほうが良いを選択しました。淡水のサンゴ礁と海水との境界緯線がはっきりと分かる。「操縦士がちょっと先に行ってみましょうか？」するとすぐに客「いたいた❣泳いでたよ❣」操縦士驚き「まじかー」のっそのっそと歩いているウミガメが順に数匹見れた。亀はハワイの迷信で幸運が訪れると……楽しい旅になりました。同乗した皆さんとも楽しい時間が共有できて良かったです。撮った動画を友達に送信したり自分でも思い出してます。

I participated in a morning canoeing session and an afternoon sea turtle snorkeling tour.

The day before, I received a call regarding the meeting place, what to bring, and important notes for the day.

On the day of the tour, we gathered at 10:30 at Imugya Marine Garden! The instructor was a cheerful and lively person named Kuma-kun. I was nervous since it was my first time canoeing, but I was grateful for the thorough explanations he provided. It was the middle of the rainy season, and unfortunately, the sea was murky due to heavy rain the day before, but luckily, the weather was calm on the day of the tour, allowing us to paddle smoothly to our favorite spots. I was so excited to discover how much fun canoeing can be! Along the way, we peeked into the water, navigated through narrow gaps between rocks, and even saw an eagle carrying a large fish (Kuma-kun mentioned it was his first time seeing that too). Chatting with Kuma-kun made the 1.5 hours fly by.

After that, we had a lunch break from 12:00 to 14:00, during which we could freely explore, eat at nearby shops, or visit souvenir stores.

In the afternoon, we gathered at Shigira Beach at 14:00, and the instructor was Mao-kun! He provided detailed explanations with great effort. I had done snorkeling a few times before, but I felt that he was the most thorough instructor I had encountered. In the sea, he took us to a spot where we could see clownfish, and then to a location where sea turtles were present for my long-awaited sea turtle snorkeling! I had seen sea turtles from above the water several times, but this time, they were so close that I could reach out and touch them (they stayed about 1 meter in front of me) while they were eating! I was able to witness the turtles coming up for air three times, every five minutes, and it was truly a lot of fun.

About an hour after the tour ended, they sent us many photos of the canoeing and snorkeling via LINE! This was amazing! Also, it's often difficult to take good photos while in the water, so receiving the data was really appreciated.

It was a thoroughly satisfying day. Thank you very much!

午前カヌー、午後ウミガメシュノーケリンツアーに参加しました。

前日に、当日の集合場所や持ち物、注意点についてお電話をもらいました。

当日は、10:30にイムギャーマリンガーデンに集合！
インストラクターは明るくてノリのいい、くまくんでした。
はじめてのカヌーで緊張していましたが、すごく丁寧に説明してくれたので、ありがたかったです。
梅雨真っただ中で、前日は大雨だったので残念ながら海は濁っていましたが、幸運なことに当日は凪だったので、自分の好きな場所にスイスイ移動できて、カヌーってこんなに楽しいんだ！と大興奮でした。
途中で海の中を覗いてみたり、狭い岩の間を移動してみたり、鷲が大きな魚を重そうに運ぶところをみたり（くまくんも初めて見たそうです。）、くまくんとのおしゃべりも楽しく、あっという間の1.5時間でした。

そのあと、12:00～14:00は昼休憩ですが、自由に行動できるので、近所のお店で食べたり、お土産物屋さんにいったりできます。

午後は14:00にシギラビーチに集合で、インストラクターはまおくんです！
一生懸命、丁寧に説明してくださりました。シュノーケリングはこれまで何度かしたことがありますが、今までで一番丁寧に説明してくださるインストラクターさんだな、と感じました。
海では、ニモのいるスポットに連れてってくれて、その後はウミガメがいる場所に連れてってくれて念願のウミガメシュノーケリング！！
ウミガメはこれまで海の上からは何度か見ることはありましたが、手を伸ばせば触れる近距離（目の前1mくらいのところにずっといます。）で、食事をしているところをずっと観察！！ウミガメの5分おきの息継ぎを3回も見ることができて、本当にとても楽しかったです。

ツアーが終了して約1時間後には、LINEを通してカヌーとシュノーケリングの写真をたくさん送ってくれました！これはすごい！また、海で自分で写真を撮ってもなかなかうまくは撮れませんし、データでいただけるのはすごくうれしかったです。

大満足な一日でした。
ありがとうございました！

At first, there were concerns about whether we could go snorkeling due to the bad weather, but on the day of the tour, the weather was fantastic, and we were able to go kayaking and snorkeling in the Blue Cave as planned.
Kayaking allowed us to paddle upstream through the mangrove forest, connecting with nature.
The snorkeling took us further out than expected, where we encountered a variety of colorful fish and witnessed the mystery of the coral.
During the car ride, we had a great time chatting with the instructor, and we ended up having a fun tour.
If the opportunity arises, I would definitely like to participate again.

最初、天気が良くないため、シュノーケリングもできるかどうかと言われていましたが、当日はめちゃくちゃ天気も良く、予定通りカヤックと青の洞窟シュノーケリングがすることができました。
カヤックは川を遡上しマングローブの森の中を行き、自然に触れ合えました。
シュノーケリングは思っていたより沖に出てくれたため、色とりどりの種類の魚達と出会うことができ、また珊瑚の神秘性も見ることができました。
車中はインストラクターと色々な話をして大盛り上がりで、楽しいツアーを終えることが出来ました。
機会があれば、是非また参加したいと思います。

The rainy season has begun in Okinawa. I was worried about the rain, but the mountains drenched in rain looked beautiful, and the plants appeared vibrant. Since there are slippery areas, I recommend wearing sneakers or other athletic shoes.

梅雨入りした沖縄。雨が心配でしたが、雨に濡れた山々が美しく、植物が生き生きして見えました。滑りやすい所もあるので、スニーカーなどの運動靴がおすすめです。

From Naha, the Churaumi Aquarium is far away, and you have the option to either rent a car or join a bus tour to get there. Since we had a larger group this time, we opted for the bus tour.
The Churaumi Aquarium is located within a marine park, and the time allocated for visiting is not very long. Moreover, we were instructed to have lunch in the park and return to the bus. However, while there are a café inside the aquarium and a food court in the park, all the options are overpriced, unappetizing, and lack local flavor, making them not worth eating. When we returned to the bus parking lot, we found several diverse local restaurants around the parking area that looked very delicious. In other words, after the bus arrives and you visit the Churaumi Aquarium (which is located near the coast, down a slope from the bus parking lot), it’s recommended to skip lunch in the park, quickly head back up the slope to the parking lot, enjoy lunch at one of the diverse local restaurants nearby, and wait for the bus departure time. However, this recommended pattern of behavior is not mentioned by the guide, so be cautious.
After the aquarium, Kouri Island and Manzamo are good natural sightseeing spots, but places like the Okashi Goten and American Village are just souvenir shops, and I don't see the point in spending more time than necessary there.

那覇から美ら海水族館は遠く、水族館に行くにはレンタカーで行くかパスツアーに入るかの選択肢となる。今回は人数も多かったのでバスツアーにした。
美ら海水族館は海洋公園の中にあり、見学に与えられた時間はそれほど長くない。しかも、公園内で昼食を取ってバスに戻る様に指示あり。しかし公園内には水族館内のカフェ、公園内のフードコート、などがあるもののどこも不味くて高くてローカル色もなく、全く食べる価値がない。ところがバス駐車場に戻ってみれば、駐車場周辺に多彩な地元のレストランがいくつもあり、とてもおいしそう。つまり、バスが着いて美ら海水族館を見たら（バス駐車場からずっと降りて行った海岸近くにある）公園内で昼食を取らずに、サッサとスロープを上って駐車場に戻って来て、周辺の多彩なレストランで昼食を楽しんで、バスの出発時間を待つ、と言うのがお勧めの行動パターンと言える。但し、決してこの行動パターンはガイドさんからは語られないので注意、
水族館以降の古宇利島や万座毛は自然の観光スポットとして良いが、お菓子御殿やアメリカンビレッジは単なる土産物屋であり、ここに必要以上の滞在時間を掛ける意味を感じない。

Iriomote Island during Golden Week. The weather was not great with light rain. They mentioned that same-day cancellations were possible, and I debated until the evening, but I thought it would be better than lounging around at the hotel, so I decided to go after all. The guide helped us find coconut crabs, hermit crabs, and snakes, making it a fun experience. Thank you!

GWの西表島。お天気はイマイチで小雨。
当日キャンセルも可能と言って頂き、夕方まで悩みましたが、ホテルでダラダラするよりはと思い、折角なので行ってみました。
ガイドさんが、ヤシガニ、ヤドカリ、ヘビを見つけたくれて、楽しませてくれました。ありがとうございます

There's nothing particularly surprising, but when you go to Ishigaki Island, it's best to start with this bus tour to get an overall feel of the island. After that, you can visit the city, surrounding areas, and any specific spots that interest you. So, if you're going to Ishigaki Island for 2-3 days, I think it's efficient to participate in this bus tour on the first day.

何が特にどうと驚くほどのことはないが、石垣島に行ったら先ずはこのバスツアーで島を一周して全体感を掴んだ上で、その後は市街・周辺や興味のある個別スポットを訪問すれば良い。という事で2-3日石垣島に行くなら、初日にこのバスツアーに参加するのが効率的と思う。

I was very satisfied with the sightseeing experience I had in a limited amount of time. I don't think I could have had this experience on my own in such a short time. Also, the lunch was very delicious and excellent. The tour guide was very efficient and did a great job.

I would love to go again.

限られた時間で、最大限の観光をさせていただき、大満足でした。
個人では、この時間でこの体験はできないと思います。
また、昼食も大変美味しく最高でした。
ツアコンの方も、てきぱきと行動され大変良くしていただきました。

もう一度行ってみたいです。

I was very satisfied with the packed tour. Unfortunately, lunch was set to be eaten individually at the aquarium, but since my visit was right in the middle of Golden Week, both the restaurant and snack stands were extremely crowded, and I couldn't eat anything. I wish they had told us, "Please bring your own lunch."

盛りだくさんのツアーで大変満足しました。
残念だったのは、昼食は水族館で各自が食べる設定でしたが、参加日がゴールデンウィーク真っただ中だったためレストラン、軽食売店ともに大混雑で何も食べることができませんでした。
こんなことなら、「昼食は持参してください」と言ってくれたらよかったのに、と思います。

The course and fees were reasonable. However, the tour guide from Saitama had a low, fast-paced voice and was not good at explaining things, which was the worst part. Also, using the audio guide on the bus was unnecessary, and it was only used for that purpose. There was no explanation of what it was for, and when I filed a complaint, I was met with anger, claiming they had explained it!

コースも料金もまとも。ただ、埼玉から移住の添乗員が、低音早口、説明下手で、最悪でした。また、バス内で、音声ガイド使用は不用だし、しかもそれに使用するだけ。何に使うか？の説明無いから、クレーム入れたら、説明した❗️と、逆ギレされました。

I was prepared for the rainy season, but the guide explained various things and helped distract me. It was lucky that the rain stopped just where we were walking.

梅雨で覚悟はしてたけどガイドさんが色々説明してくれて気をまぎらわしてくれました
歩くところだけ雨があがったのでラッキーでした

I participated in snorkeling and SUP!
In the morning, we gathered at Shigira Beach at 10:00 and started with snorkeling.
It was my first experience, but they explained how to use the equipment carefully, so I was able to enjoy it without any problems.
As soon as we got into the water, I was surprised to see so many fish!
By the way, even if you're not confident in swimming, you can hold on while swimming, so it's okay.

In the afternoon, the SUP experience was enjoyable as we felt the pleasant breeze under the blue sky!
We participated as two beginners, but they taught us how to handle the paddle and gave us advice, so we were able to maneuver freely in no time. It was great that we could ask questions easily and felt safe during the experience.
We also had photos taken at various points. I've been enjoying looking back at them since I got home!

I would love to participate again if I have the chance.
Thank you!

シュノーケリングとSUPで参加しました！
午前中は10:00にシギラビーチ集合でまずシュノーケリングをしました。
初体験だったのですが、道具の使い方も丁寧に説明してくれたので、問題なく楽しむことができました。
海に出るとすぐにお魚が沢山いてびっくり！！
ちなみに泳ぎに自信がない人も、捕まりながら泳ぐことができるので大丈夫です。

午後からのSUP体験は、青空のもとで心地よい風を感じながら楽しむことができました！
初体験の2人で参加しましたが、パドルの扱い方を教えていただいたり、アドバイスをいただいたりしてすぐに自由に操作できるようになりました。気軽に質問もできて、安心して体験できたのがよかったです。
写真も色んなポイントで撮っていただけました。帰ってきてからも見返して楽しんでいます！

また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました！

On the mangrove kayak tour, we explored the mangroves of Miyara River. It was the rainy season in May, but we were fortunate with the weather, and there were very few people, making it feel almost like a private tour. The instructor was also very friendly, allowing even beginners to enjoy the experience with ease.

Unfortunately, the blue cave snorkeling tour was canceled due to strong winds and high waves on consecutive days. As an alternative, we were offered a landing on "Phantom Island" Hamajima and snorkeling nearby, which we experienced. The water was crystal clear, and we were able to see beautiful coral reefs and many tropical fish that we had only seen in aquariums. Hamajima was also wonderful, with the sandy beach creating beautiful striped patterns due to the waves. The instructor took photos of us in various poses, which greatly increased our satisfaction. I would love to participate again if given the opportunity.

マングローブカヤックツアーでは宮良川のマングローブをまわりました。5月の梅雨の時期でしたが、天候にも恵まれて人がとても少なくほぼ貸切状態でした。また、インストラクターの方の愛想もよく、カヌー初心者でも安心して楽しむことができました。

残念ながら、青の洞窟シュノーケリングツアーは連日風が強く波が高かったため中止となってしまいました。代替として「幻の島」浜島の上陸と付近でのシュノーケリングを提案して頂いたのでそちらを体験しました。海の水は透き通っており、美しい珊瑚礁と水族館でしか見たことのないような熱帯魚がたくさん泳いでいる光景を見ることが出来ました。浜島もとても素晴らしくで砂浜が波によってにキレイな縞模様を描いていました。インストラクターの方に様々なポーズで写真も取っていただきとても満足度が高かったです。機会があればまたぜひ参加したいです。

First, the final confirmation email only mentioned that the meeting place was the Hilton in Chatan, and when I called to confirm, I was told it was a location with parking. It would be better to provide more details since there are several parking areas. I was quite anxious in the morning. Everything else was very good! The stories explained by the guide along the way were also educational!

まず、最後の確認のメールに集合場所が北谷ヒルトンとしか記載がなく電話で確認すると駐車場がある場所と言われましたが駐車場も何箇所があるので詳しく書いた方がいいです。朝から焦りました。それ以外はとてもよかったです！途中でガイドさんが説明してくれる話も勉強になりました！

It was great that there was a shuttle service at the hotel. The weather was perfect, and it was adorable to ride the water buffalo twice. It was a tour that kept me entertained from start to finish.

ホテルに送迎があるのがとても良かった。
お天気も最高で、水牛に2回も乗って可愛かった。
次から次へと飽きないツアーでした。

Thank you for allowing me to participate in the tour!

The tour started before sunset, and by the time the sun set, the river was beautifully dyed red, creating a stunning view. Although the sky was cloudy and not filled with stars, it was the best natural experience to listen to the sounds of nature while seeing the stars peeking through the clouds.

The guide was knowledgeable and explained everything in detail, which made me feel comfortable participating in the tour. On the way back, we walked through a forest where fireflies were dancing, creating a very magical atmosphere. I had an experience unique to the island that I can't see in the city. When I visit again, I would love to experience the changing of the day and the starry sky.

ツアーに参加させて頂いて、ありがとうございました！

夕日が沈む前からツアーが始まって、夕日が落ちる時には、河が赤く染まってとっても素敵な景色でした。
曇り空で、星空が一面なわけではなかったのですが、雲の間から見える星々と自然の音を聞きながら、最高の自然体験でした。

ガイドさんは博識で、何でも丁寧に教えて頂いて安心してツアーに参加することができました。
帰りは蛍が飛び交う林の中を歩いて、とても幻想的です。
街では見られない、島ならではの体験をさせて頂きました。また訪れた時には、日の移り変わりと星空を体験したいです。

I participated in a tour to swim with sea turtles and kayak, as I wanted to swim with sea turtles on my first trip to Miyako Island. Since it was the rainy season, the snorkeling at the first location, Shinjo Beach, started with rain. However, as soon as we entered the water, the instructor found a sea turtle, and we were able to swim together. At the end, a large turtle appeared, which was quite impressive. We took a lot of photos, and they sent them to me later via LINE. We then moved to Imugya Marine Garden, where I was taught how to paddle, and even as a beginner, I was able to paddle smoothly. I want to see the sunlit sea of Miyako Island, so I plan to try again.

初めての宮古島旅行でウミガメと泳いでみたく
カヌーとウミガメと泳ぐツアーに参加しました。
梅雨ということもあり最初の新城海岸でのシュノーケルは雨から始まりました。でも海に入ってすぐに
インストラクターの方がウミガメを見つけてくれて
一緒に泳ぐことができました。最後に大きな亀さんが現れてくれて迫力ありました。
写真もいっぱい撮って頂き後でLINEで送ってもらいました。
場所を移動しイムギャーマリンガーデンに移動して漕ぎ方を教えてもらい初めてでもスムーズに漕ぐことが出来ました。太陽でいっぱいの宮古島の海が見てみたいので
またリベンジしたいと思います。

They efficiently took us around the sightseeing spots. The weather was rainy, but I've heard that Kabira Bay looks beautiful on both sunny and rainy days. (It's said that it doesn't look as beautiful on cloudy days.) So, I'm glad I participated even though it was raining. The lunch was also delicious.

観光名所を効率よく巡ってくれます。天気は雨でしたが、川平湾は晴れの日と雨の日が綺麗に見えるそうです。(曇り空が1番綺麗に見えないそうです。)なので、雨だけど参加してよかったです。お昼ご飯もおいしかったです。

Due to the rain that fell from the night before, the river swelled! The original plan was quickly revised to include cave exploration and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). The cave exploration was as thrilling as what you see on TV! It was my first experience wading into the river up to my chin. As for SUP, I struggled a bit during practice, but once I tried it, it was easy and fun! The water submersion after the battle was also a memorable experience, haha. I'm grateful to the staff who worked hard to make the unpredictable weather enjoyable! I had a great time.

夜から降った雨のため、川増水！当初の計画は急遽組み直され、洞窟探検とsupに。洞窟探検はテレビで見るような迫力！顎まで川に浸かっての探索は初体験です。supは、練習はおぼつかなかったけど、やってみたら簡単で楽しかった！
闘いの末の水没も記念です笑
天候なんていう予測不可能な問題を一生懸命楽しませようと尽力してくれたスタッフに感謝です！とても楽しかったです

I didn't realize we had arrived, and then we started the dark tour by turning the car around in a narrow passageway. I was taken down a path that made me think, "Are we really going this way?!" and right from the start, I got to see a coconut crab.

After that, we discovered various sizes of coconut crabs, and it was a continuous cycle of touching them and being surprised. We also found many other creatures. Although the starry sky was faint due to the clouds, we strolled along the beach, and honestly, it was more fun than I expected.

Watch out for the beetles that rush towards the light!

到着したと気づかずにいたら、暗闇の狭い通路で車を回転させ、感心からの暗闇ツアー開始。ここいくの？！という道を連れられ、開始早々ヤシガニを見せてもらえました。
その後も大小様々なヤシガニを発見してもらい、触ったり、驚いたりの連続。他にも様々な生き物を発見。雲が多かったため星空は薄かったですがビーチで散策もして、正直、思いの外楽しかったです。
ライトに突進してくるカナブンにはご注意を！

Unfortunately, due to the rain, the glass-bottom boat tour was canceled, and we switched to a bus tour and a water buffalo cart, but I had a great time. The bus tour guide and the water buffalo cart guide explained everything very clearly, and during the water buffalo cart ride, they sang "Naiyuu Soosoo" with the Okinawan shamisen, which was very moving. The scenery was exactly what I had seen in photos and knew to be Okinawa, and I was truly impressed.

あいにく雨で、グラスボートは中止になってしまいバス観光と水牛車になりましたが十分楽しめました。バス観光のガイドさん、水牛車のガイドの方もとてもわかりやすく説明してくれ、水牛車では沖縄三味線で“涙そうそう〟を唄ってくれたのがグッときました。
景色が私が写真とかで見て知ってるこれぞ沖縄‼︎で感動しました。

On the day of the shoot, there were many clouds, but we persevered until they moved, and I was able to take some really wonderful photos. Additionally, the waiting time while the clouds shifted was enjoyable as I got to hear various interesting stories. If you have any requests for poses, you can shoot in your preferred style, so I think it's a good idea to consider any requests in advance. The shooting location was at a golf course, and the parking area was a bit hard to find, but if you're unsure, you can call the staff, and they will kindly guide you. Also, since the shoot took place in a completely dark area without streetlights, it was convenient to bring a flashlight or something similar.

I highly recommend this tour.

当日は雲が多かったのですが、
雲が移動するまで粘って撮影して頂き、
とても素敵な写真を撮影していただけました。
また、雲が移動するまでの待ち時間も
色々と面白い話が聞けて楽しかったです。
また、撮影ポーズなどもリクエストがあれば、
好みのポーズで撮影することが出来るため
何かリクエストがあれば事前に検討しておくのもいいと思いました。
撮影場所がゴルフ場となっており
駐車場所か少し分かりにくかったのですが、
わからなければスタッフの方に電話をすれば
丁寧に教えて頂けます。
また、街灯がない真っ暗な場所で撮影をするため
懐中電灯など持って行くと便利でした。

とてもおすすめのツアーです。

I have participated in similar tours several times, but this was my first experience visiting the Churaumi Aquarium first. However, this course is more efficient. It's a classic, but seeing the whale shark always brings a sense of calm. For lunch, I had yakisoba at the aquarium, but it was almost like "yakiudon." Manza Beach had a nice parking lot, but the old cluttered souvenir shops are gone, and it feels like the Okinawan charm that reminded me of Asia has disappeared, which made me a bit sad. Like everywhere else, it's unfortunate that due to COVID-19, we can't sample products at the souvenir shops. American Village is geared towards young people, so I found myself with too much free time. Overall, I think the cost performance of the tour is good.

I boarded from in front of the Okinawa Prefectural Office, but since there was no staff, it seems that the meeting place is difficult to find for first-timers.

これまで何度か同様のツアーに参加していますが、最初に美ら海水族館を訪れるパターンは初めてでした。でもこのコースのほうが効率的です。定番ですがジンベイザメはいつ見ても気持ちがおだやかになります。昼食は水族館内で焼きそばをいただきましたが、ほとんど「焼うどん」でした。万座毛は駐車場がきれいになっていましたが、昔のごちゃごちゃした土産物店がなくなり、アジアを連想させる沖縄らしさが消えてしまったようで、少し寂しく感じました。どこでもそうですが、コロナの影響で、土産物売り場で試食ができないのはやはり残念です。アメリカンビレッジは若者向けですので、じいさんは時間を持て余しました。ツアー全体としてはコスパはよいと思います。
なお沖縄県庁前から乗車しましたが、係員がいないため、初めての人には集合場所がわかりにくいようです。

I signed up for a snorkeling tour at the Blue Cave and a mangrove SUP tour, but we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to bad weather. However, the day before, they suggested snorkeling at a different location, and I decided to experience that instead. On the day of the tour, it was cloudy with some light rain, but I was able to enjoy both snorkeling and SUP thoroughly.

They took over 100 photos during the experience, and I was happy to receive the data for free. I didn't have to worry about taking my own photos, which allowed me to focus on the activities. The guides were really cheerful, and I had a great time throughout the experience. They also shared many recommendations for Ishigaki Island, which allowed me to enjoy my time even after the tour ended.

青の洞窟シュノーケリングとマングローブSUPのツアーに申し込みましたが、天候不良により青の洞窟には行けませんでした。…が、前日に別の場所でのシュノーケリングをご提案いただき、そちらで体験することにしました。当日は曇りでポツポツと雨が降っていましたがシュノーケリングもSUPも十分楽しむことができました。
体験中の写真も100枚を超えるくらい撮っていただき、しかもデータを無料で貰うことができて嬉しかったです。体験中に自分で写真を撮らなくていいので集中して取り組むことができました。
ガイドのみなさん、ほんとに明るくて終始楽しく体験することができました。石垣島のおススメもたくさん教えて頂いてツアー終了後も楽しく過ごすことができました。

I was picked up at the airport by a cute Hello Kitty taxi (there are only a few of them), which really boosted my spirits (^o^).

The five-hour course included the airport → Kyoda Road Station → Kouri Island → supermarket → hotel in Motobu. The kind female driver was very accommodating, even responding politely to my request to take a picture of the white flowers I saw earlier. She took me to a large local supermarket where I was able to buy unique Okinawan ingredients, allowing me to enjoy Okinawan cuisine every day (since it was a self-catering accommodation).

Why didn't I give it the highest rating? It was because of the downpour during the rainy season, which forced us to give up on visiting Nakijin Castle ruins ^^; I will definitely ask for this service again next time and seek a do-over!

かわいいキティちゃんのタクシー(数台しかない)で空港に迎えに来てくれて、テンションアップ(^o^)

５時間コースで、空港→許田道の駅→古宇利島→スーパー→本部のホテル。
親切な女性ドライバーさんで、「さっき見た白い花の写真を撮りたい」なんていう要望にも丁寧に対応してくれました。
スーパーも地元の大きな店に連れて行ってくれて、沖縄独特の食材を買うことができたので、毎日沖縄料理を楽しめました(基本自炊の宿なので)。

なぜ最高の評価にならなかったか?
それは梅雨のスコールのような雨で、今帰仁城跡観光を断念したから^^;
次の機会にはまたお願いして、リベンジします❢

"Gangala Valley" is a mystical tourist spot where you can feel the ancient history created by nature! Walking while imagining the connection between human history and oneself was a very meaningful experience. The extraordinary atmosphere was truly wonderful.

「ガンガラーの谷」 は、大自然が造りあげた太古の歴史を感じる神秘的な観光スポットです！人類の歴史と自分との繋がりを想像しながら歩くのはとても有意義な時間でした。非日常な感じがとてもよかったです。

I decided to join on short notice when I came to Miyako Island for work! Since I participated alone, I was a bit embarrassed at first, but the staff were easy to talk to and very nice, which helped me relax before the shoot, and I was able to take beautiful photos! I think there are people who want to see the stunning views but feel hesitant about going alone, but if you're unsure, definitely give it a try! I don't think you'll regret it! 😊

仕事で宮古島に来た際に急遽参加を決めました！一人で参加したので最初はちょっと恥ずかしかったのですが、スタッフの方が話しやすく良い方で、撮影前からとてもリラックスして綺麗な写真を撮れました！絶景は見たいけど1人はちょっと、、と思ってる方もいると思いますが、まよってるならぜひ参加してみてください！後悔しないと思います(^^)

I received a message the day before departure that landing on Barasu Island might be difficult due to tide conditions, and since the weather forecast predicted rain, I honestly felt a bit disappointed about participating. On the day of the trip, it started to rain while we were on the ferry heading to Iriomote Island. We listened to the explanation in the welcoming car, and then we started canoeing in the rain. There were three women in their 50s on this trip, and we were in a three-person canoe. Everyone was a beginner and felt anxious, but our guide, Ryusei, provided thorough explanations, and we gradually got the hang of it, making our way through the mangrove forest. The trekking to the waterfall was thrilling as we crossed a river that had risen due to the rain, and we arrived at the waterfall. We took photos in front of a rare waterfall that looked different from usual ones. We also enjoyed paddling back in the canoe. In the afternoon, we were able to land on Barasu Island, which we had given up on, and at two snorkeling spots, we saw wonderful coral reefs and tropical fish. Ryusei was cheerful and attentive throughout, which made us feel really safe and able to enjoy ourselves. For those worried about the weather, I highly recommend this tour as you can have a great time even in the rain!

出発前日に潮位の関係でバラス島上陸が難しいかもしれないとのご連絡を頂き、また、天気予報も雨だったので正直、少しがっかりした気持ちでの参加でした。当日はフェリーで西表島へ向かう途中から雨。お迎えの車内で説明を聞き、雨の中カヌーがスタート。50代女3人旅で、カヌーも3人乗り。皆初体験で不安がありましたが、ガイドのりゅうせい君が丁寧に説明して下さり、次第にコツを掴み、マングローブの森の中を進む事が出来ました。滝までのトレッキングは、雨で増水した川を横切ったりとスリル満点の中滝に到着。普段の滝とは様子が違うレアな滝の前で写真撮影。帰りのカヌーも楽しく漕ぎました。午後のシュノーケリングは、諦めていたバラス島にも上陸出来、2カ所のポイントで、素晴らしい珊瑚礁と熱帯魚を見ることが出来ました。りゅうせい君が終始明るく細かく声をかけてくれたので、本当に安心して楽しむ事が出来ました。天候で悩んでる方には雨でも全く心配なく楽しめるツアーなので、オススメしたいです！

First of all, the tour price is attractive.
With the airport transfer included, this price is a great deal.

Sefa Utaki, being a World Heritage site, had a majestic atmosphere.
The explanations from the veteran bus guide were easy to understand, and I thought, "This is professionalism."

I wanted to take more time at Okinawa World.
I felt a bit unsatisfied, and it was disappointing that we arrived at the airport more than 30 minutes earlier than scheduled.

まずは　ツアー料金が魅力的です
空港までの送迎も入って　この料金はお得です

斎場御獄は　さすが世界遺産だけあり
荘厳な雰囲気でした
ベテランバスガイドさんの説明も　わかりやすくて
これぞ　プロフェッショナルだなと思いました

おきなわワールドは　もっとゆっくり見たかったです
物足りないな　と思っているのに
空港到着が　30分以上も予定より早かったのが
残念だな　と思いました

I was guided to a special hidden spot and was able to find the long-awaited coconut crab! Although I couldn't see the stars, both the jungle exploration and the search for the coconut crab were things I couldn't do on my own, so I was very satisfied! Also, the habu snakes are scary. (I found two of them.)

とっておきの穴場スポットに案内いただき、念願のヤシガニを見つけることができました！星は見えなかったけど、ジャングル探検もヤシガニ探しも個人ではできないことなので、大満足でした！あとハブは怖い。(2匹みつけました
