All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I really appreciated that we could go to the Churaumi Aquarium on a one-day bus tour without needing a rental car!

The guide had a wealth of knowledge, and it was enjoyable to listen to them.

1日のバスツアーで、レンタカー無しで美ら海水族館までいけるのがとても良かったです！

ガイドさんの知識が豊富で、聞いていて楽しかったです。

The weather was nice, and the sea was calm, which felt great. The guide constantly checked on our condition, which made us feel very safe. It was great that they led us even though I couldn't swim. I was able to spend time pleasantly with the other participants in the tour, and it truly became a wonderful experience. Thank you very much!

天気も良く海も穏やかで気持ちよかったです。ガイドさんが始終、私達の状態を見てくれて、とても安心出来ました。泳げなくてもずっと引率してくれてよかったです。
ツアーの参加した他の方々とも雰囲気よく時間過ごせて、本当に素敵な体験になりました。ありがとうございました！

Since I needed a cane, I opted for a bus tour plan on Taketomi Island. The guide's service was outstanding. They helped us search for star sand, took photos for us, allowed us to visit a home with a shisa holding a fish, and shared stories about childhood life on Taketomi Island, which made me fall in love with the place. Next time, I plan to spend more time leisurely on Taketomi Island.

The guide on Iriomote Island also shared interesting stories during the bus ride, and the mangrove tour guide provided clear explanations, which helped me learn a lot. When crossing between Iriomote Island and Yufu Island on the water buffalo cart, the guide talked about the buffalo's personality and played the sanshin, creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The sanshin song "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" resonated with me as we returned to Iriomote Island.

The lunch we had on Yufu Island, "karasoba," was very delicious, and I bought some sauce and Yaeyama soba to take home. It was a wonderful tour.

杖が必要な私でしたので、竹富島ではバス観光プランにしました。
とてもガイドさんの応対が素晴らしかったです。
星の砂を探してくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたり、魚をくわえたシーサーのご自宅を見学させてくださったり、竹富島の子供の頃の生活などの話を聞かせてくださったりと、竹富島が大好きになりました。
次回は竹富島をゆっくりと過ごしに行きます。
西表島のガイドさんもバス移動の時に面白い話をしてくれたり、マングローブ遊覧のガイドさんもわかりやすい説明で色々な事が知れて良かったです。
水牛車で西表島⇔由布島で渡るときも水牛さんの性格などの話や三線を弾いてくださり心地よくゆったりできました。西表島へ戻る時の三線の曲が「きらきら星」が心に響きました。
由布島でいただいた昼食の「からそば」がとても美味しくて、からそばのタレと八重山そばを購入しました。
素晴らしいツアーでした。

I participated in this tour before COVID, and it had been 6 or 7 years since my last participation. I also went in February during the cold season last time, and this time I joined during the cold year-end and New Year period. We took a water buffalo cart from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island, but there was a strong north wind blowing, and it was very cold. I realized that even when going to places like Ishigaki Island, a down jacket is necessary.

The tour itself was a lot of fun. During the Nakama River cruise, I felt like there were more explanations about the mangroves in the past. Also, last time we were able to touch a large clam on the cruise ship, but that wasn't the case this time.

Although it wasn't available last time, this time we were able to touch the water buffalo on Yufu Island and take commemorative photos. The kids were thrilled.

コロナ前にこのツアーに参加して、6、7年ぶりの参加でした。前回も2月の寒い時期に行きましたが、今回も年末年始の寒い時期に参加しました。西表島から由布島まで水牛車に乗って渡りましたが、強烈な北風が吹いており、とても寒かったです。たとえ石垣島などに行くにしてもダウンジャケットが必要なことを痛感しました。
ツアー自体はとても楽しかったです。仲間川クルーズでは、過去の方がマングローブに関する説明が多かったような気がします。また、前回はクルーズ船の中で大きなシジミを回して触ることができましたが、今回はありませんでした。
前回はなかったことですが、今回は由布島で水牛に触って記念撮影することができました。子供が大喜びしていました。

I experienced snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP)!

During snorkeling, I was able to observe various fish in the clear waters. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any sea turtles, but it was still a very meaningful time.

For SUP, I enjoyed it in a beautiful spot where the sky and sea were stunning. I really felt the joy of SUP!

The instructor, Ayu, was very friendly and easy to talk to, which was great. There were some waves, but she checked on my condition here and there, making it a safe experience even for beginners!

Additionally, they took beautiful photos and provided the data for free, creating wonderful memories.

シュノーケルとSUPを体験しました！
シュノーケルでは、透明度が高い海でさまざまな魚を観察することができました。
残念なことにウミガメには会えませんでしたが、とても有意義な時間になりました。
SUPでは空と海が綺麗な場所で気持ちよくできました。SUPの楽しさを感じることができました！！
インストラクターのあゆちゃんは気さくに話してくださりとてもよかったです。
波がくるときもありましたが、ところどころで体調も心配してくださり、初心者でも安心して体験できます！
まだ、写真もきれいにとっていただき、データ無料でくれるのでとてもいい思い出になりました。

The water buffalo, moving at its own pace, was so cute. I traveled through the streets that still retain their old-fashioned charm while listening to traditional songs played on the sanshin, and it was very soothing. It was hot, and I couldn't move quickly, so I would have been happier if the free time had been a bit longer to relax.

マイペース運行な水牛さんが可愛くて、
三線の民謡を聴きながら昔ながらの様相が残る街並みを水牛車で旅して癒されました。
暑くてテキパキとは動けなかったので、自由行動の時間がもう少し長くのんびりできたら嬉しかったです。

The tour guide was incredibly kind and very attentive. I would recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy sightseeing in Okinawa, especially families with children! ☺️💖

I felt that the time spent at Nago Pineapple Park was a bit insufficient. It might not be recommended for those who want to take their time, especially if you want to ride the bus at Nago Pineapple Park, as there isn't much time for that here. 😣💦

However, everything else was very enjoyable, so I am very satisfied!

ツアーガイドの方はすごく優しい方で対応も丁寧でした。沖縄に来て観光を楽しめたい方に進めたい!!特に子供連れの家族の皆さんに☺️💖
ナゴパイナップルパークでの時間は少し物足り足りないと感じました。ゆっくりみたい人には進めないかも、特にナゴパイナップルパークのバス(？)に乗りたい方はこちらだと時間が少ないのでオススメしません😣💦
でもその他はとても楽しめたので大満足です!!

During our cruise stop in Naha, we rented a large taxi for 9 people for 8 hours from 09:00 to 17:00, with 7 passengers. Since each of the 7 had different places they wanted to go, we followed the course outlined below. We started from the port and went to American Village (where 4 people got off) ⇒ picked up 3 people and headed to the Churaumi Aquarium (3 hours there is sufficient) ⇒ returned to American Village where the aquarium group of 3 spent 1 hour ⇒ the American Village group of 4 went to a nearby market to look for things they wanted ⇒ during this time, the taxi returned to American Village to pick up the 3 people ⇒ came back to the market to pick up the remaining people ⇒ and then returned to the port. This route allowed us to fully utilize the 8 hours, visiting multiple locations and fulfilling various wishes. By frequently communicating via LINE among the 7 of us, we could keep track of our current locations, estimated arrival times, and next actions, making it very efficient.

クルーズの那覇停泊中に9人乗り大型タクシーを7人で09：00ｰ17：00まで8時間貸し切り。7人中行きたいところが違うので下記コースを辿りました。港からアメリカンビレッジ（ここで4人降りる）⇒3人を乗せて美ら海水族館へ（現地3時間で十分）⇒アメリカンビレッジに戻り水族館組3人はココで1時間過ごす⇒アメリカンビレッジ組4人は近くの市場へ買いたいものを探しに⇒この間タクシーはアメリカンビレッジに戻って3人をピックアップ⇒市場に戻って来て残りの人をピックアップ⇒港に戻る。このようなコース取りで8時間フルに複数の場所、複数の希望を叶えました。7人で頻繁にライン通信することで、現在居場所、到着予定時刻、次の行動など、つぶさに連絡が取れるので、非常に効率的です。　

I chose a bus tour course. The bus stopped at several locations, and the driver sometimes accompanied us. At the beach with star sand, while I was looking for star sand, the driver found a small piece of star sand and gave it to me, which made me super excited!

私はバス観光コースを選びました。何ヶ所かバスを停めて　ドライバーさんが時々同行してくれたり　星の砂の浜では、星の砂ないかなぁと探してると　小さい星の砂を見つけてくれて　私にくれたので　超感激！でした。

It was disappointing that the glass boat at Kabira Bay, which I was looking forward to the most, was suspended due to the approaching typhoon. However, despite the busy weather changing from cloudy to rainy to sunny, the guide's explanations were clear, and I was able to learn a bit about Ishigaki Island and thoroughly enjoy my time there.

I also enjoyed a delicious hamburger lunch. Although I need a cane and couldn't have managed the limestone cave on my own, I was able to go thanks to the support I received.

台風接近中で一番の楽しみの川平湾のグラスボートが運休で残念でしたが、お天気は曇り→雨→晴れと忙しいお空の中、ガイドさんの説明がわかりやすく、少し石垣島のことを知れて充分に楽しめました。
昼食のハンバーグランチも美味しくいただきました。
杖が必要な私ですが、ひとりでは鍾乳洞は無理でしたが、サポートがあったのでなんとか鍾乳洞に行くことができました。

Since it was my first time in the southern part of Okinawa, I was able to efficiently visit Peace Memorial Park, Sefa Utaki, and Okinawa World. The driver was pleasant, but I think it would have been even better if there had been a bit more detailed guidance about each location.

沖縄南部は初めてだったので、平和記念公園、斎場御嶽、沖縄ワールドを効率よく回ってもらいました。
感じの良いドライバーさんでしたが、もう少し詳しい各地の案内が有れば尚良かったかなと思います。

It was amazing. On Iriomote Island, I was able to relax and feel the slow passage of time on the island. The mysteries of the mangrove nature, the water buffalo cart crossing the sea, the Orion beer I drank during lunch on Yubu Island, the tropical botanical garden, and the bus rides with a friendly driver guide—all of these became wonderful memories.

最高でした。西表島では、のんびり、ゆったり、島に流れる時間を感じることができました。マングローブ自然の神秘、海をわたる水牛車、由布島の昼食で飲んだオリオンビール、熱帯植物園、親切な運転手のガイド付バス移動、どれもいい思い出となりました。

I had a reservation for snorkeling at the Blue Cave, but due to the typhoon, it was changed to canoeing in the mangrove river. The guide was very kind and explained various things to us. It started pouring rain along the way, but that was fun in its own way.

青の洞窟のシュノーケルを予約していましたが台風の影響でマングローブの川でカヌーに変更になりました。ガイドさんはいろいろ説明してくれて親切でした。途中で土砂降りになりましたがそれはそれで楽しかったです。

The weather wasn't very good, and we couldn't see the starry sky, but we were able to find three coconut crabs. It was fun to search for creatures using a flashlight in the darkness. The guide also provided detailed explanations about the animals, which was great.

天候はあまり良くなく星空は見れませんでしたがヤシガニは3匹発見できました。
暗闇の中、ライトを使って生き物を探すのが楽しかったです。
ガイドさんも丁寧に生物の説明をしてくれてよかったです。

I apologize for being late to the meeting time, and I really appreciate your flexibility in accommodating us. Thank you for kindly responding to my daughter, who couldn't stop chatting even after the tour started. We were all thrilled to see the rare scene of cicadas hatching and the firefly larvae. Although the cloudy sky made it difficult to see the stars, we were very satisfied to see the beautiful full moon. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.

集合時間に遅れてしまい、大変ご迷惑をおかけしたのですが、臨機応変に対応していただき有り難かったです。ツアー開始後もおしゃべりが止まらない娘に対しても優しく答えて下さりありがとうございました。珍しい蝉の孵化中のシーンやホタルの幼虫も見れて大人も子供も大興奮でした。星空は雲が多くあまり見れませんでしたが、綺麗な満月も見れて大満足です。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

I enjoyed snorkeling at the Blue Cave beach and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the mangrove river. The guides were very kind and taught us well. I was able to see beautiful fish while snorkeling. It was my first experience with SUP, but I managed to stand up and paddle. Thank you for providing such a great experience.

青の洞窟の海岸でシュノーケルとマングローブの川でSUPを楽しみました。ガイドの方達はとても親切に教えてくれました。
シュノーケルではキレイな魚を見れました。
SUPは初体験でしたが、なんとか立って漕ぐことができました。良い経験をさせていただいて、ありがとうございました。

Thank you for your consideration; I had a wonderful experience! I was able to take many photos, creating lots of memories! I would love to participate again when I visit Miyako Island! ☆

気にかけて下さり、楽しく体験ができました！
写真も沢山とっていただけて、思い出が沢山出来ました！
また宮古島に来た際は参加したいです☆

The night tour was very enjoyable! I was really happy to see two coconut crabs today.

Our guide, Takurou, was very friendly and his explanations were easy to understand, which made the whole experience fun.

This night tour became a wonderful memory of my trip to Miyako Island. Thank you!

ナイトツアーはとても楽しかったです！
今日はヤシガニを2匹も見ることができて、本当に嬉しかったです。

ガイドのたくろうさんはとても親しみやすく、説明も分かりやすくて、終始楽しく過ごすことができました。

今回のナイトツアーは、宮古島旅行の素敵な思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました！

It was really great. I was moved. I look forward to working with you again. The time management was also perfect. The staff were very kind.

めっちゃ良かったです。感動しました。またよろしくお願いします。時間配分も申し分ありません。親切なスタッフさんたちでした。

I participated in a snorkeling and SUP tour. Both activities took place in the rain, but the timing for the SUP was particularly heavy downpour. However, thanks to the guide's thorough lectures and explanations, I had a very enjoyable time. Thank you!

シュノーケリングとサップのツアーに参加させていただきました。
両方とも雨天の中の催行でしたが、特にサップのタイミングはなかなかの土砂降り。
でも、ガイドさんの丁寧なレクチャーと説明で、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
ありがとうございました！

I visited in early June 🏝️ and the tour guide on the sightseeing bus in Iriomote Island 🚌 was very entertaining. The explanation about the mangroves was thorough and easy to understand. The water buffalo 🦬 that took us from Iriomote Island to Yubu Island was very adorable and worked hard to pull us along 👊. The songs and stories along the way were also fascinating! It was fun. I chose a free plan for Taketomi Island, but walking to the center was quite tiring 🚶‍♂️, so I relied on the bus shuttle that was available when we arrived at the port. For some reason, I rode a water buffalo again on Taketomi Island 🦬, and it was so cute to see it walking on land 🎵. There was also a shuttle back to the port, making for a meaningful day visiting three islands from early in the morning 😁. It was great 👍!

6月初旬に訪れました🏝️ 西表島の観光バス🚌のガイドさんのトークが面白かったです。
マングローブも丁寧で分かりやすい案内をしていただきました。西表島から由布島に渡る水牛🦬さんが、とても愛らしく？頑張って引っ張ってくれました👊その途中の唄やお話しも興味津々！楽しかっです。竹富島はフリープランにしたけど、やはり中心部まで歩くのは🚶‍♂️しんどいので港に着くとバスの送迎があったので頼りました。竹富島でも何故かまた水牛に乗りました🦬　陸を歩く姿も愛くるしかったです🎵　帰りも港まで送迎があり、朝早くから一日有意義な3島めぐりになりました😁良かったです👍

The guide showed us around, and we were able to see the coconut crab! They also shared many interesting stories with us. ^_^

ガイドの方にご案内いただき、ヤシガニを見ることができました！興味深いお話もたくさんしてくださいました^_^

After entering the Blue Cave, I went snorkeling over the coral. The weather was nice, and the Blue Cave looked beautiful, which was great.

青の洞窟の中に入ったあと、珊瑚の上をシュノーケリングしました。天気も良く、青の洞窟が綺麗に見えて、良かったです。

Even in the rain, the mangrove canoeing became the best memory! 🛶☔️ Paddling in sync with my friends, I felt excited every time we passed through the mangrove tunnels! It felt just like being part of an expedition.

During the blue cave snorkeling, the sun miraculously came out, and it was so moving! ✨ I was able to see the coral reefs and cute fish up close, and I truly had a wonderful time. 🐠💙

It ended in the blink of an eye, and I had so much fun that I thought, "I want to swim more!" 🏝️

雨でも最高の思い出になったマングローブカヌー🛶☔️
友達と息を合わせて漕ぎ、マングローブのトンネルを抜けるたびにワクワク！まるで探検隊になった気分でした。

青の洞窟シュノーケルでは、奇跡的に太陽が出てくれて感動✨
珊瑚礁や可愛い魚たちを間近で見ることができて、本当に幸せな時間を過ごすことができました🐠💙

あっという間に終わってしまって、「もっと泳いでいたい！」と思うほど楽しかったです🏝️

After the typhoon, the rainy weather continued, and I couldn't go at the originally scheduled early morning time due to the rain... However, they looked for a time when I could go all day, and I was able to go during sunset! Thank you very much. It was very beautiful and became a wonderful experience!

台風後で雨模様が続いており、もともと予約した朝一は雨で行けず、、、
終日行けるタイミングを探してくれて、サンセットで行くことができました！
ありがとうございました。
とても綺麗で、素敵な体験になりました！

It was very good! The guide was very kind and attentive, which was great! I definitely want to participate again if I have the chance!

とても良かったです！
ガイドさんはとても親切丁寧な対応でとても良かったです！
また機会があれば是非参加したいです！

I had an experience that I usually can't have. I enjoyed the guidance and explanations during the bus ride on Iriomote Island, not to mention the ox cart ride.

普段できない体験をさせていただきました。
牛車はもちろんのこと、西表島のバスの運転中の案内・説明には楽しませていただきました。

It was my first time at Uni no Hama! I originally became interested after seeing videos on social media, and since I plan to have my wedding in Miyakojima next year, I thought it would be great to use the videos and photos for memories, so I signed up! The drone photography was refreshing, and I was happy to have the shoot in a less crowded area.

The weather was perfect, just after the rainy season and before the typhoon, and the photos and videos, including the drone shots, turned out amazing! The ginger ale at the end was also very delicious!

If anyone is hesitating, I definitely recommend participating!

初めてのユニの浜でした！もともとSNSで動画をみて興味をもっていましたが、挙式を来年宮古島であげる予定で、動画や写真に使ったり思い出づくりができたらと思い申し込みしました！ドローン撮影も新鮮で、人が少ないところで撮っていただけて嬉しかったです。

梅雨明け台風前の天気も最高で、ドローンの撮影も含め良い写真、動画を撮っていただけて最高の仕上がりでした！最後のジンジャーエールもとてもおいしかったです！

他の方で迷われている方がいればぜひ参加をおすすめします！

I explored the jungle and saw three coconut crabs and a beautiful starry sky! Thank you to the guide who shared such a wonderful story!

ジャングルを探検し、3匹のヤシガニと綺麗な星空が見れました！素敵なお話をしてくれたガイドさんありがとうございました！

The guide's extensive knowledge and the recent sighting of sea turtles made for a wonderful memory! Thank you!

ガイドさんのたくさんの知識と、直近でウミガメが見れてとてもいい思い出になりました！ありがとうございます！
