Buffalo cart, glass boat, and bus tour courses.
The explanations from the guides on each course were great.
The most memorable part of my trip to Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Island was Taketomi Island.
水牛車、グラスボート、バスによる周遊コース
各コースでガイドさんの説明が良かった。
石垣島、西表島の旅行で一番印象に残ったのが竹富島です。

It happened to be low tide on the day I participated, so during the mangrove tour, there were many shallow areas and sandbars, allowing us to see the roots of the mangroves very well. I sat on the left side of the boat, but if there’s space, I recommend sitting on the right side. Since it’s a round trip, you’ll see the same scenery, but I think the first half offers more explanations and insights.
I had been looking forward to riding the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island for a long time, so I was very excited to participate this time. Once I actually rode it, I started to worry a bit about the burden on the water buffalo, but listening to the guide, it was clear that they are raised with a lot of love, and I felt reassured to hear that their lifespan is longer than that of water buffalo in other regions.
We moved at a leisurely pace with the water buffalo, and depending on the cart, our arrival times varied. On Yubu Island, I interacted with Louis, who was in charge of taking photos, and he took some pictures for us. The small photos are free, while the larger size costs 2,500 yen for one or 3,500 yen for a set of two (I bought the set of two). Of course, it’s perfectly fine to decline. However, please note that you can only take photos with your own camera (phone) with Louis.
I thought 90 minutes on the island might be a bit long, but after having lunch and spending some time playing on the beach, it turned out to be just the right amount of time. Since I had other plans in the afternoon, I highly recommend the half-day course.
参加した日がたまたま干潮の時だったそうで、マングローブ遊覧の時浅瀬や中洲が多くマングローブの根もとても良く見れました。
私は船の左側に座ったのですが席に余裕があれば右側に座られる事をお勧めします。往復するので同じ景色を観れるのですが前半の方がいろいろな解説と共に観れるかなって思います。
由布島の水牛車は以前から乗りたかったので今回はとても楽しみにして参加しました。
実際に乗ってみると水牛にかかる負担とかもちょっと気になってしまいましたが、ガイドさんの話を聞いてるととても愛情深く育てられているのが伝わり寿命も他の地域の水牛よりも長いと聞いて安心して楽しめました。
ゆっくり水牛のペースで進み、乗る車によって到着もまちまちでした。
由布島では写真担当のルイ君と触れあったり写真の撮影もしてもらえて小さい写真は無料でもらえます。大きなサイズは有料で1枚2,500円2枚セットで3,500円出した。(私は2枚セットでを買いました)もちろんお断りでも全然大丈夫よのうです。ただし自分のカメラ(携帯)での撮影はルイ君のみしか出来ないので気をつけてくださいね。
島での90分は少し長いかなっと思いましたが、ランチのお弁当をたべて少しゆっくり海岸で遊んだらいい時間になってました。
午後から他の予定もいられるので半日のコースはとてもお勧めです。

I was worried about how cold the nights in December would be, but there was no need to worry. It was warm enough that I was sweating while walking.
Even though it's December, I saw summer constellations. The Milky Way was beautifully visible.
The jungle in complete darkness was a bit scary, but I felt reassured as we moved forward led by our guide.
I also encountered the highlight, the coconut crab, which made for a satisfying experience.
12月の夜は寒いか?と心配していましたが心配ご無用。歩いていると汗をかくくらい暖かいです。
12月なのに夏の星座。天の川も綺麗に見られました。

Our tour included seven people, including my spouse and me. Even though it was a tour during this season, the number of empty seats made me think about the travel agency's profitability. We boarded the bus at the prefectural office in our departure area. The plan was to pick up tour guests from several hotels, but it turned out to be a tour with only the guests who boarded at the prefectural office, allowing us to reach our destination earlier than scheduled without stopping at hotels.
Although it wasn't my first visit to Manzamo or the Churaumi Aquarium, the lack of crowds made the experience feel very fresh. We were able to enjoy it leisurely. The guide, who seemed to have been on a break for a while, provided accurate explanations and allowed us to touch on Okinawa's history.
We had a very fulfilling day. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
私たち夫婦を含めて7名でのツアーでした。
この時期でのツアーとはいえ、空席の多さを見て旅行社の採算のことを考えさせられました・・・。
私たちは出発地の県庁前から乗り込みました。予定ではいくつかのホテルからツアー客をピックアップするはずでした。が、県庁前から乗り込んだツアー客だけのツアーとなり、ホテルへ寄ることなく予定より早い時刻に目的地へ行くことができました。
万座毛も美ら海水族館も含めて初めての訪問ではないのですが、人の少なさからとても新鮮でした。ゆったりと楽しめました。
ガイドさんもお休みが続いていて、久しぶりのガイドだったようですが、説明も的確で沖縄の歴史に触れることができました。
とても充実した一日を過ごすことができました。
みなさんにおすすめのツアーです。

Since I traveled with my mother in her 60s during the winter, we couldn't include activities at the beach, so I opted for this plan that had a monitor tour in the middle of our 2-night, 3-day trip. Initially, I planned to spend a day on Taketomi Island by taking a ferry, but participating in this tour turned out to be a great decision.
After arriving at Iriomote Island, we quickly transferred from Ohara Port to a boat for the Nakama River cruise and headed upstream. The guide provided explanations about the plants and creatures while steering the boat, making it very easy to understand and enjoyable, especially learning that there are several types of mangroves that look similar.
The cruise turned around in the middle stream, and after getting off at a stop, we took a bus to Yufu Island. The road was surrounded by rivers, forests, and fields, but the driver and guide was very entertaining, sharing trivia about Iriomote Island as he took us to Yufu Island.
After getting off, we crossed to Yufu Island by water buffalo cart, enjoyed a delicious lunch, and relaxed on the beach while eating gelato (if you want to explore thoroughly, you need to hurry as time may not be enough). It truly is a beautiful island that feels like paradise.
On the way back, we returned to Ohara Port while listening to the guide's interesting stories, and the sightseeing concluded. We took a ferry back to Ishigaki Island via Taketomi Island. Since we had places we wanted to visit on Taketomi Island, we disembarked from the tour there, but I regret not participating in a course that included Taketomi Island because we couldn't explore it efficiently.
Also, (there might have been some explanation written somewhere), there was no tour conductor for this tour, and there was no gathering of customers at the remote island terminal. We received tickets at the terminal's reception counter and handed them to the guide at each destination, who would then tear them off (so it seemed there were people from other courses on the same boat or bus).
Overall, it was very efficient, and I highly recommend it for beginners to remote islands or those who are not very confident in their physical strength. If you're planning a free trip to Ishigaki Island, you might want to consider this.
P.S. Thank you to all the staff for allowing me to participate in the monitor tour this time. I created wonderful memories on my first trip to the Yaeyama Islands.
冬季に60代の母との旅行であったため、海でのアクティビティ等を組み込めず、2泊3日の中日にモニターツアーが出ていたこちらのプランをお願いしました。
当初、定期船で竹富島に渡って1日過ごすつもりでいましたが、このツアーに参加して大正解でした。
西表島到着後、大原港からすぐに仲間川クルーズの船に乗り換え、上流へ向かいました。ガイドさんが操船しながら植物や生き物について説明してくださり、同じように見えるマングローブも何種類も生育していること等とてもわかりやすく楽しいクルーズでした。
中流でクルーズは折り返し、途中の乗り場で下車後はバスに乗って由布島へ向かいます。
川と森と畑に囲まれた一本道でしたが、運転手兼ガイドさんがとても面白い方で、西表島のトリビアを盛り込んだ解説をしながら由布島に連れて行ってくださいました。
下車後、水牛車で由布島へ渡り、美味しい昼食をいただいたり、ジェラートを食べながらビーチでのんびりすごしました(じっくり見ながら全部まわりたい、という人は急がないと時間が足りないです)。正に楽園のようなのんびりとした綺麗な島です。
帰りもガイドさんの面白い話を聴きながら大原港に戻り、観光は終了。あとは竹富島を経由する便で石垣島に帰ります。
私達は竹富島で行きたい所があったため、ツアーを離脱して竹富島で下船しましたが、竹富島であまり効率よく観光できなかったため、竹富島を含んだコースに参加すればよかったと後悔しています。
また、(どこかに説明が書いてあったかもしれませんが、)このツアーに添乗員さんはおらず、離島ターミナルでのお客さんの集合もありません。
ターミナルの受付カウンターでいただいたチケットを各目的地でガイドさんにお渡しして、その都度切り取っていく形です(なので、同じ船やバスに他のコースの方もいたようです)。
とにかく効率がよく、離島初心者や体力にあまり自信のない方にもとてもおすすめです。
フリープランで石垣島に旅行される方は検討されてはいかがでしょうか。
追伸。スタッフの皆様、今回はモニターに参加させていただきありがとうございました。初の八重山で素敵な思い出ができました。

I participated in the jungle tour with high expectations. However, since it was winter, it seems that the animals were hibernating, and I couldn't see the palm crab I was hoping for... which was a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, the experience of searching for animals with flashlights alongside the other participants was interesting.
The starry sky was incredibly beautiful, and I really enjoyed it! I was able to see shooting stars live, and combined with the sound of the waves, it was a blissful time just gazing at the sky. The guide also shared stories about Ishigaki Island while driving, which made it enjoyable! I would like to go again in the summer next time.
ジャングルツアーに期待して参加させて頂きました。ただ冬だと動物たちは冬眠しているらしく、お目当てのヤシガニは見られず…それが少々残念でした。ですが参加者皆さんで懐中電灯を使いながら動物を探す体験は面白かったです。
そして星空はとてもキレイで、楽しめました!流れ星なども生で見られて波の音も相まってボーッと眺めている時間が幸せでした。ガイドさんも運転しながら石垣島あるあるをお話ししてくださったり楽しめました!
今度は夏に行きたいと思います。
Thank you for participating in the tour with Ishigaki Island ADVENTURE PiPi.
It felt like a treasure hunt as everyone searched for creatures and found seashells in the darkness! We were also able to see a perfect starry sky without a single cloud!

The COVID-19 measures were excellent, and despite my concerns about my legs, I decided to take a bus trip. I usually travel alone, but I reevaluated the experience of touring with a guide! I stayed on Kokusai Street, which was close to the meeting point in front of the prefectural office, and even while moving with a suitcase full of souvenirs, I was able to enjoy sightseeing comfortably. The service was very attentive, ensuring I was sent off to the airport on time. I will use this service again. My mother was also very satisfied. Thank you very much.

I participated in November. It goes quite deep into the mountains, more than I expected, but with a guide, we were able to spot animals, insects, and palm trees faster than anyone else, and they provided fun explanations, making it an incredibly valuable experience! Above all, there's no way I would have gone into such a dark mountain alone!
One slight disappointment was that there were no binoculars available for stargazing. I couldn't see much due to my poor eyesight. However, it was a very enjoyable time, completely out of the ordinary!

I wanted to join the tour of the Valley of Gangala, but there were no available slots, so I participated in the tour of Okinawa World instead.
I arrived at the Sefa Utaki before it opened and spent the waiting time taking photos of the "Bridge of Happiness" and the beautiful ocean scenery of Okinawa.
Since I entered Sefa Utaki as soon as it opened, it wasn't crowded, and I was able to worship at my own pace.
At Okinawa World, there was a lot to enjoy, including the Eisa show and Gyokusendo Cave, and even though the time was short, I had a great time.
During the bus ride, they ensured thorough COVID-19 measures, such as alcohol disinfection and ventilation on the bus while sightseeing!
Although it was the last day of my trip, it was a recommended tour for fully enjoying the southern part of Okinawa.

When you go to the reception, you will receive a combined ticket for the ferry and other tickets to be used after arriving at the remote islands. There is no tour guide, but local staff will be waiting at the ports of each island. It was a bit confusing with so many people from various travel companies, but I recommend it for those who want to efficiently explore the remote islands.
On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed viewing the mangroves while on the boat. The commentary during the ride was interesting. When crossing to Yubu Island, we used a water buffalo cart. It was a relaxing and enjoyable experience while listening to shamisen music.
On the final stop, Taketomi Island, we toured by bus and water buffalo. The red brick streets were very beautiful. After the water buffalo ride, there was no specific guidance for the return, and for a moment, I wasn't sure what to do. However, when I asked a nearby staff member, they were very helpful. The islanders and staff were all very kind. Overall, it was a very satisfying tour.
受付に行くとフェリー乗船券や離島到着後に使うチケット類が一つになったものを貰います。
添乗員は無く、各離島の港に現地係員の人が待ってくれています。
色んな旅行会社の人でごった返しているので少し戸惑いましたが、とにかく離島を効率的に周りたい方にはおすすめです。
西表島では船に乗りながらマングローブを見てまわりました。乗船中の解説が面白かったです。
由布島に渡る際には水牛車を使います。
三味線を聴きながら、のんびりと楽しい経験が出来ました。
最後の竹富島は、バスツアーと水牛で周りました。赤煉瓦の街並みがとても綺麗でした。
水牛車が終わった後、特に帰りの案内が無く
一瞬どうしたらいいか分からなくなりましたが
近くのスタッフさんに声をかけたら教えてくれました。島の人達、関係者の方が皆さん親切です。

I had given up on visiting multiple places in one day since I didn't have a car, but I found this bus tour.
It was great to easily visit the places listed in the guidebook. The time spent at each location was just right, allowing us to enjoy without any waste.
It was also nice that I didn't have to carry souvenirs around since it was a bus tour.
Since I wasn't driving, I was able to enjoy some drinks at Pineapple Park. I ended up buying some delicious wine after a tasting. The staff at Pineapple Park were also very courteous, which was a plus.
At the aquarium, there were fewer people, so I was able to enjoy it without stress. I especially loved being able to witness the feeding time of the manatee mother and baby and see their adorable appearance.
Next time I come to Okinawa, I would like to participate in a different course.
車がないので、1日で複数ヵ所を回るのをあきらめていたところ今回のバスツアーを見つけました。
ガイドブックに載っている場所を楽に見て回れてよかったです。それぞれの場所の滞在時間も調度よくて無駄なく楽しめました。

自分で運転しないので、パイナップルパークでお酒も楽しめました。試飲がきっかけで美味しいワインを購入しました。パイナップルパークでの係りの方の対応が丁寧なところもよかったです。

Among the various island tours offered, I believe this tour is a recommended course that efficiently visits three islands with a variety of transportation options including cruises, buses, and water buffalo carts. The Nakama River cruise on Iriomote Island was guided by a female captain who provided clear explanations about the mangroves as we slowly made our way. The bus driver provided a fun island guide while taking us to the water buffalo cart boarding area for Yubu Island. After transferring to the water buffalo cart and listening to the sound of the sanshin, we arrived in no time.
There was a lunch and free time on Yubu Island, but as noted in other reviews, there was no explanation about when to eat lunch. Since we arrived at 11:00, I thought it was a bit early, and while I was wandering around, others had already started their meals. I think it would have been better to have a more detailed explanation upon arrival.
We then took the boat to Taketomi Island. First, we went by bus to Kaiji Beach for about 15 minutes of star sand searching, but we only got a brief view of Kondoi Beach from the car. At the tourist center, we boarded the water buffalo cart, but even though it wasn't crowded, we had to wait nearly 20 minutes here, which felt like a significant time loss. We took the eastern course, but the water buffalo today seemed quite leisurely, moving at a rather slow pace, which was amusing.
We were pressed for time on the return boat, and although I wanted to look at souvenirs at the Taketomi Island boarding area, there was no time to enter the building, and we hurriedly left the island. Throughout the day, I felt that there was no break time, so even if you wanted to use the restroom or take a moment before getting on the next vehicle, it was just move, move, move. I think consideration is needed for elderly people and those with small children. Overall, I believe this is an ideal course for touring the islands in one day.
各社の離島ツアーを検討した中、このツアーは効率的に3島を巡りクルーズ、バス、水牛と乗り物も充実したお薦めのコースだと思います。西表島での仲間川クルーズは女性の船長さんがマングローブなど分かりやすく解説しながらゆっくり進んでくれました。由布島行きの水牛車乗り場まではバスの運転手さんが楽しく島内ガイドをしながら案内してくれます。水牛車へ移り三線の音色を聞きながらアッという間に到着。由布島でランチと自由時間があるのですが他の方の投稿にもあったようにいつランチを食べるのか説明がなく島に到着したのが11時だったので少し早いと思いブラブラしていたら他の方は既に食事を開始されていたので到着時にもう少し丁寧な説明があれば良かったかと思います。再び船に乗って竹富島に行きます。最初にバスでカイジ浜に行き15分ほど星砂探し、コンドイビーチは車の中から少し見るだけでした。観光センターに行き水牛車に乗るのですが、混んでも無いのにここで20分近く待たされかなり時間ロスを感じました。東コースを周りましたが今日の牛さんはのんびり屋さんのようでかなりスピードが遅かったのはご愛嬌でしょうか。帰りの船の時間がギリギリで竹富島の船乗り場でお土産を見たかったけど建物に入る時間も無くあわただしく島を後にしました。1日を通して感じたのは乗り物に乗る前とかトイレに行きたいなーと思っても休憩時間が無く直ぐに移動、移動、移動なのでお年寄りや小さなお子様連れの方には配慮が必要かと感じました。全然的には1日で離島を巡るには理想のコースだと思います。

I was hoping there wouldn't be too many people, but when I arrived on the day, there were only three participants!! It was almost like a private event.
Manzamo: It was my first visit in five years, and I was surprised at how much it had changed! It's a shame they started charging 100 yen, but I think it was worth more than that.
Nago Pineapple Park: First visit. You can ride a cart or walk, and I chose to walk and explore. The route explanation was a bit unhelpful, but overall it was good. I found it a bit strange that the dinosaur section appeared suddenly, but it wasn't bad. The pineapple juice and wine were delicious!
Kouri Island: Second visit. The sea was incredibly beautiful! If it had been summer, I would have jumped into the water.
Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium: Second visit. You can see dolphin shows and explore various attractions inside, so I'd like to visit again.
Okashi Goten: The music was addictive and really stuck in my head (laughs).
I want to visit with my family!
人数あまり、多くないようにと祈ってましたが、当日行って見るとまさか参加者3名!!

万座毛:5年ぶりの再訪問 かなり変わってびっくりした!
そして、100円取るようになったのは残念だけど100円以上の価値があったと思う。

The Yanbaru area is quite challenging to visit on your own, so I joined this tour. Before getting on the bus, we sanitized our hands, and inside the bus, we were seated with space between each group, which made me feel safe while sightseeing.
Although the time spent at each location felt short, I was able to experience the richness of nature through my senses. In particular, I was very satisfied with being able to walk at my own pace and connect with the nature of Yanbaru at the Oishi Forest Mountain!
Additionally, the seafood for lunch and the souvenir snacks were both very delicious.
やんばるエリアは自力で行くには大変なので、こちらのツアーに参加しました。バスに入る前に手指消毒をし、バス内もグループ毎に間隔を空けて座っていたので安心して観光することができました。
各所を巡るため、それぞれの滞在時間は短く感じたものの、五感を通して自然の豊かさを知ることができました。特に、大石林山は自分のペースで歩きながらやんばるの自然に触れることができて大満足です!
また、昼食の海鮮もお土産のお菓子もとても美味しかったです。

I visited Miyako Island for the first time. I wanted to enjoy the beauty of the ocean, so I joined a tour that offered both canoeing and snorkeling!
The water's clarity is incredible!! Even while riding in the canoe, it feels like I'm flying in the sky.
Diving into the ocean was even more moving...
Within just five minutes of starting snorkeling, I encountered a turtle! I was able to get close enough to reach out my hand!
I was healed by the vibrant fish and had the best time!!
初めて訪れて宮古島。海のキレイさを楽しみたく、カヌーとシュノーケーリングが両方できるツアーに参加しました!
海の水の透明度がハンパない!!
カヌーに乗っているのに、まるで空を飛んでいるかのように感じます。
海に潜ると更に感動・・・・
シュノーケリング開始5分でカメにも遭遇!
手が届くほどの距離まで近付くことが出来ましたーー
鮮やかな魚に癒され、最高の時間を過ごす事が出来ました!!

On the day of the trip, we took a boat to Taketomi Island at 1:00 PM, and we were guided around the village in a water buffalo cart for just under 30 minutes. We had free time until our return boat, so we strolled around the village. Walking around the streets is manageable in about an hour.
As a suggestion for improvement, I would like to be guided to the boarding boat. When it was time to board the return boat, I didn’t realize that the schedule posted at the boarding area was different from the boarding time for this tour, and despite being in the waiting room, I ended up missing the boat. The weather suddenly turned rough, and there was a risk that the 4:50 PM boat would be canceled, so I had to negotiate to get on a completely different boat to make it back to Ishigaki Island.
I feel that important details, such as discrepancies in the schedule, should be announced in advance.
当日は13:00発の船で竹富島へ向かい、30分弱水牛車で竹富島の集落を案内してもらいました。帰りの船便までの残り時間は自由に過ごせるので、集落を歩いて散策していました。街並みを歩いて見て周るのも、1時間あれば十分です。
今後の改善要求として、乗船する船へ誘導してもらいたい。帰りの便に乗る際、乗船場に掲示されている時刻表と、このツアーの乗船時刻が異なることに気が付かず、待合室にいたにも関わらず船に乗り遅れてしまいました。天候も突如として荒れてきて、16:50の船が欠航になる恐れがあった為、急遽全く別の船に乗せてもらえるよう交渉して何とか石垣島まで帰ってきました。
時刻表と異なる点など、事前に注意事項をアナウンスすべきだと感じました。

I participated with a bit of anxiety because it was cloudy, but I was moved by the starry sky I had never seen before!! When the guide desperately searched for and found a coconut crab, I was at my maximum excitement! I was really happy because I was about to give up! Listening to the guide's fun stories, I was able to feel excited and thrilled like I haven't in a long time, and it was truly enjoyable. Thank you! I think I'll also try to visit the recommended shops.
曇っていたので少し不安ながら参加しましたが、見た事のない星空に感動!!
さらにヤシガニを必死に探してガイドさんが見つけてくれた時にはテンションMAX!諦めかけていたのでめちゃくちゃ嬉しかった!ガイドさんの楽しいお話を聞きながら久しぶりに年甲斐もなくワクワクドキドキできて本当に楽しかったです。ありがとうございました!おすすめのお店にも行ってみようと思いまーす

I think it would be great to wrap up at Mount Ontake early and also see Chinen Cape. The roadside station's sata andagi is available early in the morning, so you can enjoy it fresh. I think it might be tough for wheelchair users at Mount Ontake! The observation area at Chinen Cape has a bit of a steep slope, so an electric rental bicycle would be a good option. It was 300 yen for an hour. Unfortunately, I couldn't enter the stone area inside Mount Ontake due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was my third time on this bus tour, and it was really nice that there were no disappointing bus guides!
御嶽を早めに切り上げて、知念岬も見るととても良いと思います。道の駅のサアータアンダギーも朝早いので出来立てが食べられます。御嶽は車椅子はきついと思う!知念岬の展望広場は少し坂がきついので電動レンタサイクルも良いと思います。一時間300円だったです~まだ御嶽のなかの石の中はコロナ禍の影響で入ることは出来ませんでした今回のバスツアーは3回目でしたが本当にハズレのバスガイドさんはいなかったのはとても良かったです!

Before participating in the tour, it was noted that the duration would be 1.5 hours, so I imagined we would be walking quite a bit through the jungle. However, in reality, it was just a short round trip between the park entrance and Taco Park. Nevertheless, I was able to see an unexpectedly large number of creatures along the way, and the guide provided plenty of explanations. Before I knew it, a considerable amount of time had passed, and I really enjoyed it. There was another person with us, but it was unclear whether they were a customer or an apprentice of the guide. I thought it would create a greater sense of unity if there was a brief time for everyone to greet each other at the beginning of the tour. If I were to give one piece of advice to future participants, it would be, "The meeting place is more difficult to find than expected, and it is also much darker than you might think."
ツアーに参加する前は所要時間1.5時間と記載されていた為相当ジャングルの中を歩き回るのかなと想像していましたが、実際は公園の入口とタコ公園の間の短い距離の往復だけでした。しかしながら途中想像以上の数の生き物を見る事が出来、ガイドさんの説明も沢山あり、気付いたらかなり時間が経っていたという感じで楽しめました。ツアーにはもうお一人お客さんなのかガイドさんの見習いなのか不明な方がいらっしゃったので、ツアーの始まりにみんなで簡単な挨拶する時間があると更にツアーの一体感が生まれるかなと思いました。今後参加される方に一つアドバイスをするなら、「集合場所は想像以上にわかりにくいのと、想像以上に真っ暗です。」とお伝えしておきたいです。
Thank you for participating in the tour!
On the day of the tour, we encountered various creatures, including coconut crabs, insects, and bats. Although the walking area wasn't very large, time flew by as we were engrossed in searching for wildlife. I was relieved that we were able to show you the coconut crabs safely.
Please feel free to contact us again when you visit the islands!

I participated at the beginning of December! I originally planned to do SUP in the mangroves of Iriomote Island and snorkeling at Balas Island, but I had to give up because the waves were rough and there were many ferry cancellations during that time. After researching, I found out that I could also do SUP in the mangroves of Ishigaki Island, so I made a request. I was also interested in the Blue Cave, so when I looked for a tour that included snorkeling at the Blue Cave, I ended up at this shop. However, in December, the Blue Cave snorkeling point was dangerous due to rough waves, so we snorkeled at a different point in the southern part of Ishigaki Island. I had the impression that a full-day tour would have a fixed lunch location and not much freedom, but here we disbanded once at lunchtime and could eat wherever we liked, which was great. I was happy that they took about 200 photos and even videos. They suggested photo-worthy poses, and it became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.
12月のはじめに参加いたしました!
本当は西表島のマングローブでSUPプラスバラス島でシュノーケルを予定していたのですが波が荒く、フェリーの欠航が多い時期だったため断念しました。
調べたところ石垣島にもマングローブでSUPが出来ることを知りお願いしました。
青の洞窟も気になっていたので青の洞窟シュノーケルとセットになっているツアーを探したところこちらのショップさんに辿り着きました。
ですが12月は青の洞窟のポイントは、波が荒くて危険なため石垣島南部の別のポイントでシュノーケルをしました。
丸1日ツアーでは、昼食場所が決まっていたり自由が無いイメージでしたがこちらは昼時に一度解散し好きな所で食事出来たり自由で良かったです。
写真200枚ほど+動画まで撮っていただいて嬉しかったです。写真映えするポーズを提案して頂けたりとても良い思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
Thank you for participating in the tour with Ishigaki Island ADVENTURE PiPi!
The weather was perfect for SUP and snorkeling that day! I was amazed at how well both of you handled the SUP!
I'm glad we could show you the beautiful fish and corals of Ishigaki Island!
There are many more attractions on the island, so we look forward to your next visit!

This was my first time exploring the remote islands. I wanted to ride a water buffalo cart, see mangroves, and enjoy the beautiful sea... and this tour was full of highlights that fulfilled those hopes! Riding the water buffalo cart was my main goal, and I rode it three times during the tour. I was surprised to find that the ride comfort and speed varied greatly depending on the personality of the water buffalo.
During the journey, the guide shared interesting facts about the island, and I felt a connection to the way of life of the islanders, who cherish their nature and culture. Since only Yubu Island had free time, it might feel a bit lacking for those who want to explore freely, but I think this tour is perfect for anyone looking to efficiently explore the remote islands.
今回が初めての離島巡り。水牛車も乗りたいし、マングローブや綺麗な海も見てみたい…そんな希望を叶えてくれる見どころ満載なツアーでした!
水牛車に乗ることが一番の目的で、このツアーでは3回水牛車に乗りましたが、水牛の性格によって乗り心地やスピードが全然違うことには驚きました。
移動中にはガイドさんが島の豆知識を教えてくださり、自然や文化を大切にされている島の方々の暮らしぶりを感じることができたような気がします。
フリータイムがあるのが由布島のみだったため、自由に散策するには少し物足りなく感じるかもしれませんが、効率的に離島巡りをしたい方にはぴったりのツアーだと思います。

The weather was bad in the morning, but I managed to enjoy sightseeing without encountering rain. I had a great time with the guide's humor-filled explanations.
The water buffalo cart ride to Yufu Island was disappointing due to low tide, as I wanted to cross through the water. On Taketomi Island, it was unfortunate that we couldn't do the glass-bottom boat tour because of the bad weather. The bus tour felt a bit lacking.
The white sandy path lined with bougainvillea was impressive.
朝は天気が悪かったのですが、何とか雨にも遇わず観光できました。ガイドさんのユーモアあふれる解説を満喫しながらの楽しい観光が出来ました。
由布島への水牛車による渡りは引き潮で水がなく残念、水の中を渡ってみたかった。
武富島では天候が悪くグラスボート観光が出来なかったのが残念。バス観光はチョット物足りないかな。
ブーゲンビレアの咲く白い砂の道が印象的。

This was my second time in Okinawa, and I participated with my daughter.
We gathered at the square in front of the prefectural office in the morning. The guide was standing there to welcome us, which was reassuring and easy to understand.
After picking up a few hotels, we headed to Manza Beach. There was a bit of wind, but the view was very pleasant.
Next, we visited Nago Pineapple Park. Since it was a bus tour, I felt safe enjoying the pineapple wine tasting. I ended up buying some, which made the return trip heavy, but I was satisfied.
We passed over the Warumi Bridge and headed to Kouri Island. From the coast, we could enjoy photogenic scenery. We had light sandwiches here, which were delivered fresh by the vendor and were very delicious.
Then we went to the main attraction, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Although there was only one whale shark instead of two, it swam majestically alongside a large manta ray.
Finally, we enjoyed dessert at the Okinawa Sweets Castle. By this time, I was full and had thoroughly enjoyed Okinawa.
We were dropped off at the last location, and then we parted ways.
There were some effects from the pumice stone here and there, but overall it wasn't a problem for sightseeing. Those doing marine sports should be careful.
I would like to participate in this tour again in a few years.
今回は2回目の沖縄。娘と二人で参加でした。
朝は県庁前の広場に集合。ガイドさんが立って、お出迎えわかりやすくて安心しました。
何件かのホテルピックアップを経由し、万座毛へ。少し風がありましたがとても気持ちの良い見晴らしでした。
続いてナゴパイナップルパーク。バスツアーということもあり、安心してパイナップルワインの試飲を堪能。思わず買ってしまって帰り重たかったですが満足です。
ワルミ大橋を通過し、古宇利島へ。海岸からはフォトジェニックな風景が堪能できます。ここで軽食のサンドイッチ。業者さんがここまで届けてくれて作り立てだったのかとてもおいしかったです。
そしてメインの美ら海水族館へ。二匹のジンベイザメは一匹になっていましたが、大きなマンタとともに雄大な泳ぎを見せてくれました。
最後にお菓子御殿でデザートを堪能。このころには沖縄堪能で満腹です。
最後に乗った場所に送ってもらって解散でした。
ところどころ軽石の影響もありましたが、おおむね観光には問題ない程度でした。マリンスポーツの人は気を付けた方がよさそうです。
何年か後にまた参加してみたいツアーでした。

I participated with my one-year-old child. First of all, the staff at the reception were very kind and provided clear explanations. As a result, even though there was no tour guide, we were able to navigate without any issues. The tickets were in a booklet format, so we just had to hand them over at each destination, which made it stress-free.
I initially thought twice about riding the water buffalo cart, but there was a different kind of enjoyment in the water buffalo cart that walked powerfully through the water compared to the one that walked leisurely on land. I'm glad I chose this course. I felt like I was able to escape from my usual hectic life, and the water buffalo cart experience became the highlight of my trip to Ishigaki.
The guide for the mangrove cruise was knowledgeable about the plants and animals, and it was interesting to hear detailed explanations about the birds we encountered along the way. Although the schedule was tight due to the travel, there were longer breaks and free time about every three hours, so I had no trouble with diaper changes. During the water buffalo cart ride, they played the shamisen and sang, but since my child was sleeping, they sang a local lullaby instead. It was very soothing, and I felt happy, wishing I could fall asleep too. Additionally, at lunchtime, they had prepared children's utensils at our seats in advance. I was very pleased with everyone's kind assistance.
I considered exploring on my own, but I don't think I would have had such a fulfilling day without the tour. We were able to visit all the must-see spots efficiently, so I recommend this for anyone visiting the islands for the first time.
Regarding COVID-19 measures, there was hand sanitizer available at each location, and everyone was using it frequently. The bus and boats between the islands were a bit crowded, but they were well-ventilated, so I felt relatively safe.
一歳児の子供連れで参加させていただきました。
まず受付の方がとても親切でわかりやすい説明をしてくださいました。そのため添乗員さんはいませんでしたが問題なく回ることができました。チケットも一枚綴りになっているので行く先行く先で渡すだけでよくノンストレスでした。
水牛車に二回も乗ってもなあと申し込みの時は思っていましたが、水の中を力強く歩く水牛車と陸をゆったり歩く水牛車ではまた違った面白さがありこのコースにして良かったなと思いました。普段のせかせかした生活から離れた時間を過ごしていることを実感でき、水牛車体験が今回の石垣旅行で1番の思い出になりました。
マングローブクルーズのガイドさんも植物や動物に詳しくその先々で出会った鳥の詳しい説明をして下さり面白かったです。
移動移動のためタイトスケジュールではありますが、3時間に一度ほど長めの休憩や自由時間がありためオムツ替えにも困ることがありませんでした。水牛車で三味線で弾き語りをして下さいましたが子供が寝ているタイミングだったので現地の子守唄を歌って下さいました。とても癒されて私もこのまま眠りたいなあと幸せな気分になりました。また、昼ごはん時には子供の食器も予め席に用意して下さっていました。皆さんの優しいご対応とても嬉しかったです。
自力でまわる方法も考えましたが自力ではここまで充実した1日にはならなかったと思います。無駄なく定番スポットを巡ることができたので初めて離島巡りをする方にとってもおすすめです。
コロナ対策については、行く先々で消毒アルコールが置いてあり皆さんこまめにしています。バスや離島間の船は少々密になりますが、換気はされており比較的安心して過ごせたかなと思います。

The weather was cloudy, then sunny.
I knew that the winter in the Yaeyama Islands had strong winds, but it was really strong.
The staff informed us that it was strong today, so it seemed to be a particularly windy day.
The boat from Ishigaki Island to Taketomi was quite small, so it rocked a lot.
As soon as we arrived, we were guided to a glass-bottom boat, but since it was an even smaller vessel, the rocking was terrifying.
When the winds are strong, I think it would be helpful to announce the level of rocking on the boat, as it would allow more people to switch to different options. Especially when the waves are high, the journey on the glass-bottom boat right after disembarking becomes more challenging.
I enjoyed the city tour on the water buffalo cart, but the memory of the rough boat ride overshadowed it a bit, which was a little disappointing.
天気は曇りのち晴れ
八重山諸島の冬は風が強いとは知っていたが、
