All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I was able to thoroughly explore Miyako Island, Ikema Ohashi, Irabu Ohashi, Irabu Island, and Shimoji Island in six hours. Our driver, Mr. Anzai, did a great job introducing the spots and managing the schedule, making it very efficient in terms of both time and cost. I would like to use this service again when I visit next time.

宮古島、池間大橋、伊良部大橋、伊良部島、下地島を6時間でじっくり観光することができました。ドライバーの安斎さんがキチンとスポット紹介やスケジュール管理をして下さり、時間的にもコスト的にも大変効率的でした。再訪時にも利用したいと思います。

The snorkeling guides were Makocchan and Soutakun! Both were cheerful and friendly, and their explanations were easy to understand, making it enjoyable and reassuring even for first-timers.

The snorkeling location changed due to sea conditions, but it turned out to be a great decision! I was thrilled to swim with sea turtles, which was a dream come true 🐢✨✨ I got so excited that I almost drowned... haha.

And for my first time on a SUP, we went into the mangroves. The quiet and surreal scenery was breathtaking... it was incredibly healing!! ✨✨

I did fall off the SUP a few times, but that just added to the fun, and I made some amazing memories. ☺️

Thank you so much, Makocchan and Soutakun! I definitely want to go again! When I do, I hope to have you as my guides again! 🤘

シュノーケリングのガイドはまこっちゃんSUPはそうたくん！
どちらも明るくて気さくで説明もわかりやすく、初めてでも安心して楽しめました。

海の状況でシュノーケリングの場所は変更になりましたがそれが大当たり！！
念願の海亀と一緒に泳げて感動🐢✨✨
興奮しすぎてあわや溺れるかと…笑

そして初めてのSUPはマングローブの中へ。
静かで幻想的な景色が広がって…
めっちゃ癒されたーーーッ！！✨✨

しっかりSUPから落ち、掴みは👍
それも含めて楽しくて最高の思い出ができました。☺️

まこっちゃん、そうたくん
本当にありがとうございました😊
また絶対行きたいです！
その時はまたガイドよろしくーー🤘

This was an activity I wanted to experience at least once. The water buffalo crossing the sea is really cute. I had a wonderful experience on Yufujima as well. The jungle cruise on Nakama River was also fantastic.

１度は体験したいアクテビティでした。海を渡る水牛はホントに可愛いです。由布島でも素晴らしい体験出来ました。
仲間川のジャングルクルーズも最高でした。

The guide, who was a water buffalo driver, was skilled and made the experience enjoyable. They explained the island's traditional events and culture, as well as current issues and challenges, which provided a great experience.

I used this service for my graduation trip. It was a lot of fun to efficiently visit places that are difficult to reach without a car.

The guide was kind and had a great sense of humor. They took photos for us and shared recommended spots, allowing us to have a very fulfilling time. They also provided detailed explanations about the return time to the bus and how to get there, which made me feel secure participating in the tour.

On the other hand, as others have mentioned, there were some places where the stay felt a bit short. In particular, I think if we had an extra 30 minutes to an hour at the Tropical Dream Center, Churaumi Aquarium, and American Village, we could have enjoyed them more leisurely. While I had a great time, there were moments that felt a bit rushed.

Still, I was very satisfied with being able to visit many famous tourist spots in just one day. This tour is especially recommended for students since they can take advantage of student discounts.

卒業旅行で利用させていただきました。車がないと行きにくい場所を効率よく回ることができ、とても楽しかったです。

ガイドさんも優しくノリが良く、写真を撮っていただいたり、おすすめのスポットを教えていただいたりと、とても充実した時間を過ごせました。バスへの戻り時間や行き方についても注意点を含めて丁寧に説明してくださり、安心して参加することができました。

一方で、他の方も書かれているように、滞在時間がやや短く感じる場所もありました。特に熱帯ドリームセンター、美ら海水族館、アメリカンビレッジは、あと30分〜1時間ほど余裕があると、よりゆっくり楽しめたと思います。満喫はできましたが、少し慌ただしさを感じる場面もありました。

それでも、1日で有名観光地をたくさん巡ることができ、非常に満足しています。学生の方は学割も利用できるため、特におすすめのツアーです。

It was a wonderful island-hopping experience! I was worried about getting seasick on the boat from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island, but that was not a problem at all. The tour was conducted on time for everything, and we had enough time to look at souvenirs. On Taketomi Island, you can choose the return boat at either 4 PM or 5 PM, but I definitely recommend the 5 PM option. If you take the 4 PM boat, you won't have enough time for sightseeing. I feel like there are more star sands than there were 20 years ago!

とても素晴らしい離島巡りでした！石垣島〜西表島までの船に酔わないか心配でしたが、そこは全く問題なかったです。
ツアーは全て時間通りに行われました。お土産を見る時間もちゃんと取れました。
竹富島では帰る船を16時or17時で選べますが、絶対17時がいいです。16時だと観光時間が足りません。20年前より星砂が増えた気がします！

I had a photo shoot on the 17th! Despite the last-minute reservation, they responded quickly, which was a great help. It was my first time having my picture taken, and I was nervous, but they explained everything thoroughly and suggested poses, allowing me to enjoy the shoot! The photos I received are also very beautiful, and I am extremely satisfied! Thank you very much!

17日に撮影をしました！
直前の予約にもかかわらず、すぐに対応していただき助かりました。
写真を撮ってもらうのは初めてで緊張していましたが、丁寧に説明してくださり、ポーズも提案していただけたので、楽しみながら撮影することができました！
届いた写真もとても素敵で、大満足です！
ありがとうございました！

It was great that we were able to visit places we wouldn't normally include ourselves. There were a few spots where I wished we had a bit more time, but overall, it was an enjoyable tour.

自分たちではなかなか盛り込まない所も行けたので良かった。もう少し滞在時間がほしいところもありましたが、全体的には楽しいツアーとなりました。

Visiting Miyako Island for the first time at the end of March was a very pleasant experience. Although I had to wear a wetsuit for marine activities, looking up at the sky, I felt as if countless stars were falling down. I was able to spend a special time learning about the Winter Triangle and other constellations. The person who took my photos was also from my hometown, which created a warm and friendly atmosphere. I also appreciate their help in addressing the fact that I had mistakenly scheduled my day. If you ever visit Miyako Island, I highly recommend experiencing a day like this!

初めての宮古島3月末と言う事てわ、とても過ごしやすい時期ですので、マリン関係もウテットスーツを着なければならない状況でしたが、空を見上げると⭐️なんと星が沢山降ってきているように感じるではありませんか。
冬の大三角形など説明を受けて特別な時間⏰を過ごすことができました。撮影してくれる方も同郷という事もあり和やかな雰囲気を感じられました。又1日間違えていた事にも対応してくれて、感謝です。
是非皆さんも宮古島へ行ったら、こんな1日いかがでしょうか？

Overall, it was a packed schedule, so there wasn't much time, but the guide was wonderful, explaining everything in detail. She was a Korean sister, and I felt like cheering her on as she worked hard to speak Japanese.

全体的にぎゅっとしたプランなので、時間はありませんが、ガイドのお姉さんが丁寧に色々説明していて素敵でした。韓国オンニでしたが、一生懸命日本語を話してて応援したくなりました。

On the last day in Ishigaki Island, I participated in a tour to make use of the time before my flight. It was a tour that allowed us to visit many of Ishigaki Island's famous spots all at once. Both the guide and the driver were very nice, and since I was traveling alone and didn't rent a car, there were many places that would have been difficult for me to reach, so I’m really glad I joined the tour! From the car window, they also showed us the mangrove trees and a shisa farm. I thought it would have been even better if there were tours that allowed us to get off at the shisa farm and Yaima Village.

石垣島最終日、飛行機までの時間を利用して参加しました。
石垣島の名所を一気に巡れるツアーで、ガイドさんも運転手さんもとっても良い方で、ひとり旅でレンタカーもしなかった私には、なかなか行きづらい場所も多かったので、参加して良かったです♪♪
車窓から、一本マングローブや、シーサー農園なども案内してくれました。
シーサー農園や、やいま村も下車するツアーがあればもっと良いのにと思いました。

The person who took the photos was very kind and responded gently and slowly, which made it easier for my son, who finds it difficult to maintain the same posture for a long time, to be photographed beautifully. Although they were young, they were also good at conversation, and their high communication skills made it even easier to take the photos without feeling nervous. Thank you very much!

This was my second time participating, and I definitely recommend joining if you travel to Ishigaki Island. You can explore efficiently without wasting time, and it's easy since there's no driving involved.

二度目の参加でしたが、石垣島に旅行したら是非とも参加をおすすめします。
無駄なく効率良く回れますし運転もないから楽です。

I was able to fully enjoy the essence of Okinawa in just one day! Everywhere was so appealing that I ran out of time, so next time I want to take plenty of time to explore the key spots. This time, the driver and the tour guide were both very nice people, which made the experience even more enjoyable! Thank you!

1日で沖縄らしさを満喫出来ました！どこも魅力的で滞在時間が足りなくなってしまったので、次は要所要所にたっぷり時間をかけて見て回りたいと思います。
今回は運転手さん並びに添乗員さんがとても良い人柄でより楽しめました！ありがとうございました！

Crossing the island by water buffalo cart was a charming and wonderful experience. I was also impressed by the extensive mangroves. The bus driver's stories on Iriomote Island were very informative as well. Thank you very much. It was a bit disappointing that the weather was gloomy.

水牛車での島渡り、趣があり、素敵な体験ができました。
広範囲のマングローブも感動しました。
西表島のバスの運転手さんのお話もとても参考になりました。
ありがとうございまました。
天気がぐずついていたのがちょっと残念でした。

The weather is up to chance, so there's nothing we can do about it.
The magnificent scenery and mangroves were beautiful.
The kayaking experience was fun.
There are fewer photos.
The sense of style is a bit questionable.
🔰 Keep it up, Ryoma-kun!

I was amazed by the vastness of the limestone formations in Ishigaki. They were very beautiful and magnificent, and I could feel the passage of time. I also recommend the glass-bottom boat in Kabira.

石垣の鍾乳の広大さに驚きました
とても綺麗で壮大で年月を感じました
また川平でのグラスボートはお勧めです

The guide shared various stories, allowing me to learn about history. I was able to discover many great places.

ガイドさんが色々お話してくださったので、歴史を学ぶことができた。たくさんの良い場所を知ることができた。

I thought I would be able to see them up close, so it felt more like a confirmation of their existence, and I couldn't really gauge their size. Since whether a whale appears near the boat is a matter of luck, I guess I just have to accept that I wasn't lucky this time. I hope for better luck next time.

勝手にもっと近くで見られるのかと思っていたので、生存確認した位の感じで大きさも分からない感じでした。船の近くに鯨が現れるかは運次第という事なので、今回は運がなかったと思うしかないかな?次回に期待したい。

I initially planned for my grandchildren to ride the water buffalo cart, but I felt like I wanted to ride a little longer! The waiting time was quite long, and by the time we boarded the boat, there wasn't enough time to explore the island. That was how I felt. Other than that, I didn't have any particular complaints. If I have the opportunity again, I think I would like to try activities on Yufu Island and Iriomote Island. Thank you very much.

取り敢えず孫たちを水牛車に乗らしたくて計画しましたが、もう少しだけ長く乗りたかったかなぁ！？という感じです。待たされた時間が長くて、船の乗船時間には、中途半端島内巡りしようと思っても時間がない。そう感じでした。後は、特に不満は、ありませんでした。また機会があれば、由布島、西表島のアクティビティに挑戦しようかなぁと思います。ありがとう御座いました。

When visiting Ishigaki Island, I recommend finishing your island-hopping tour first, as they will take you to the airport afterward. This would be a good option for your last day.

You will have time to ride a glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay, which is a highlight of Ishigaki Island (boat fees are not included). The staff from the boat company will be waiting for you in the parking lot at Kabira Bay, so you can enjoy the experience without worrying about waiting times, making it very efficient.

When I used this service, there was a cruise ship in, and it was very crowded with foreigners. It's best not to have high expectations for lunch.

石垣島に観光に来た際、離島めぐりを先に済ませ、空港まで送っていただけるので、最終日に利用されるとよいと思います。
石垣島のハイライトになる川平湾でグラスボートに乗れる時間があります（ボート料金は含まれていません）。
川平湾ではボート業者のスタッフが駐車場で待っていてくれますので、待ち時間を気にせずに効率が良いです。
私が利用したときはクルーズ船が来ていて、外国人で大混雑しておりました。
昼食は期待しない方がよろしいです。

I received my ticket at the counter of the island terminal and boarded the ship. With transportation to and from the port, I was able to take a stroll around the island during the extra time I had!

I was able to make good use of my time from lunch until the evening (^^).

離島ターミナルのカウンターでチケットをもらい乗船
港から送り迎え付きで、余った時間で島内のお散歩にも行けました！

ランチしてから夜までのいい時間の使い方ができました(^^)

This is a classic course for island hopping around Ishigaki Island, including a round trip on a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, a mangrove tour on the Nakama River, and free time on Taketomi Island. We were able to efficiently explore all three islands.

On the water buffalo cart, the guide played the sanshin and sang Okinawan songs, and the bus driver shared interesting stories about the island!

西表島〜由布島へ水牛車で往復、マングローブ群生の仲間川遊覧、竹富島でのフリータイムという石垣島周辺の離島巡りの定番コースのですが、3島を効率よく観光できました。
水牛車ではガイドの方が三線を弾きながら沖縄の歌を歌ってくださり、バスでは運転手の方の島のお話も面白かったです！

This time we took a course around the three islands, and it was very well received by my family. The schedule was just right, and we had a great time. Thank you for your assistance. If there is another opportunity, I will definitely use your services again.

今回はま3島をめぐるコースでしたが、家族にも大好評でした。時間割りもちょうど良く、大変楽しむ事が出来ました。
お世話になりました。又、機会が有れば利用させて頂きます。

I'm so glad I went! The weather was great, which contributed to the perfect conditions, but the starry sky was the best I've ever seen in my life, with countless stars against the pitch-black sky. I saw more stars than in a planetarium.

Unfortunately, we didn't see any coconut crabs during the exploration, but it was a unique and fun experience that we couldn't have done alone, as the night jungle would have been too scary to navigate by ourselves. Thank you for the tour!

行って大正解でした！天気が良くて最高の条件だった事もあるけど、真っ暗な空に満天の星で、長年生きてきた中で1番の星空でした。
プラネタリウムよりも多い星を見ました

探検では残念ながらヤシガニは見れませんでしたが、自分たちだけでは夜の茂みは怖くてまわれないしとても貴重で楽しかったです。
ツアーありがとうございました！

We were blessed with good weather and were able to see an unprecedented number of stars. I think the night spent lying on the sandy beach will be unforgettable. Although we didn't encounter any coconut crabs or other bugs and insects, just wandering around the pitch-black path where nothing could be seen once the lights were turned off was a first for us, and the kids were excited the whole time. When we went to dip our feet in the sea, we unexpectedly saw bioluminescent plankton! That was really fascinating too!

お天気に恵まれ、見たことのない数の星を見ることができました。砂浜に寝転がり過ごした夜は忘れられないものとなると思います。ヤシガニや他の虫や昆虫には出会えませんでしたが、電気を消せば何も見えなくなる夜道をウロウロすること自体が初めてのことで、子供たちも終始興奮していました。
海に足だけつかりに行くと予期せぬ夜光虫を見れました！それもとても面白ろかったです！

Since it was the change of seasons, I wasn't expecting much, but the weather was so nice that I thought the sea would look beautiful! So, I made a reservation the day before. In the morning, we went canoeing on the Urauchi River, and in the afternoon, we did snorkeling at Barasu and another spot. The snorkeling had an unbelievably high level of clarity, and we were able to see clownfish, butterflyfish, and many other types of fish. Our guide in the morning was Teru, and in the afternoon, it was Kengo. Both guides were very knowledgeable, kind, and made us feel safe. When I expressed my lack of confidence in swimming, they took various considerations into account, which allowed us to fully enjoy both the morning and afternoon activities.

Both of them had a deep love for Iriomote Island and shared many interesting things with us, including the beauty and enjoyment of rainy days. I highly recommend this tour for those visiting Iriomote Island for the first time! Make sure to experience this tour at the beginning of your stay on Iriomote Island. You will definitely fall in love with Iriomote Island!

季節の変わり目なので期待していなかったのですが、あまりに天気が良いので、海が綺麗そう！と思い前日に予約しました。午前中は浦内川でのカヌー、午後はバラスともう一つ別のポイントでのシュノーケリングです。シュノーケリングは信じられないほど透明度が高くクマノミ、チョウチョウウオ、その他沢山の魚を見る事ができました。午前のガイドはテルさん、午後のガイドはケンゴさんでした。どちらのガイドさんも視野が広く、親切で安心です。泳力に自信が無い事を伝えると色々と配慮してくれました。おかけで午前も午後も満喫できました。
お二人共、西表島愛があり色々な事を教えてくれました。
雨の日の美しさ、楽しみなども。
西表島初めての方にはこちらのツアーお勧めです！西表島に泊まって最初にこのツアーを体験してください。西表島が大好きになること間違い無しです！

At first, I was anxious, but the staff guided me each time, so I was able to enjoy sightseeing without worry. I especially think that the three-island tour is a cost-effective and recommended course.

初めは不安でしたが係員が都度案内してくれるので不安なく観光出来ます。特に3島巡りはコスパも良いおすすめコースだと思います。

I am satisfied with the tour I chose. Especially, having the explanations from the expert guide in the Valley of Gangala made the visit worthwhile. However, the bus we took had people going to the beach on the same route. While it's fine since Okinawa World and the Valley of Gangala have the same destination, the fact that we disband at a somewhat awkward time, like 1:30, makes me wish they would separate the groups. Was that mentioned in the description?

自分が選んだツアー内容には満足してます。
特にガンガラーの谷の専門ガイドさんの説明受けながらは観光に来た甲斐がありました。
ただこちらのバス、海に行く人も一緒に3コース同行です。おきなわワールド、ガンガラーの谷は目的地が同じなのでいいのですが…１時半とか微妙な時間で解散するので、寄り道する分早く戻れると思うと別にして欲しいなという。説明文にはそんなこと書いてありましたっけ？

It was great to be able to shoot under a beautiful starry sky with no clouds at 9 PM on the same day. During the shoot, we had to remain still for 13 seconds, and even though we had our 9-month-old daughter with us, she was sleeping on the hip seat, so we naturally managed to stay still. It's impossible to capture the starry sky and our photos with a smartphone camera, so it depends on the weather, but I highly recommend this experience.

当日21時から撮影で雲がなくとても綺麗な星空の中撮影できて良かったです。撮影中13秒間静止しないといけなく、9カ月の娘もいましたがヒップシートの上で寝ていたのでちょうど自然と静止できてました。星空と自分達の写真を残すにはスマホのカメラでは無理なので天気に左右されますがお勧めの体験です。
