All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I participated in a bus tour and arrived at Seifa Utaki earlier than scheduled. During the waiting time, I was able to stroll around Chita Peninsula Park. The weather was nice, and Kudaka Island looked beautiful.

The guide's explanations and the handmade picture story were great. After visiting Utaki, I bought some sata andagi.

At Okinawa World, the limestone cave was impressively long. But the highlight was the Eisa performance, where five women took turns dancing for 30 minutes. They jumped while playing drums and lifted their legs high; it was amazing. If you check the Eisa schedule and prioritize watching it, you'll have a lot of fun.

There were also coupon discounts, which made it relatively easy to enjoy the less accessible Nanjo.

バスツアー参加、当日予定よりも早くせーふぁ御嶽に着いて、待ち時間、知多岬公園を散策できた。天気も良く久高島が綺麗に見えた。

ガイドさんの解説も手作り紙芝居もあり、良かった。御嶽見学後、サータアンダーギを買って摘んだ。

沖縄ワールドでは、鍾乳洞が長くすごかった。でも一番良かったのは、エイサー、女性5人が入れ変わり立ち代わり30分、動き回る。太鼓を叩きながらジャンプしたり足を高く上げたり、凄かった。エイサーの時間確認して優先して見ると楽しいです。

クーポン割引もあり、比較的行きにくい南城をうまく楽しめました。

The staff at the ferry terminal counter were very nice.

I was able to relax a lot, anyway. It was great to receive coupons that can be used in the area through the Go To campaign.

Be careful if you rent a bike at the water buffalo place, as it's quite expensive! It's easier to walk to the beach. It seemed like biking would be tough on the hills.

フェリーターミナルのカウンターの方は感じが良かったです。

とにかくのんびりできました。
go to キャンペーンで　地域で使えるクーポンがもらえて良かった。

水牛の所でレンタサイクルすると　かなり高いから注意！
ビーチまで　歩いた方が楽だし。
自転車の方は坂道大変そうだった。

The weather was perfect, and I had the best experience. Landing on Balas Island and seeing the Kuula Falls up close was even more moving than I had imagined from photos. Additionally, the limestone cave was exceptional, and it became a very precious memory in every way! The guide was also a really nice person. I was grateful for all the great photos he took. I definitely want to participate again!

お天気にも恵まれて最高の体験が出来ました。
バラス島に着陸できたり、クーラの滝を間近で見れたり、写真で見た以上の感動がありました。
また、鍾乳洞は格別で、全てにおいてとても貴重な思い出になりました！ガイドのお兄さんも、すごく良いかたでした。いい写真をたくさん撮って頂き、有り難かったです。また是非参加したいです！

Initially, it was a tour that included three activities in one day, including Barasu Island, but due to the impact of the waves, we were informed the day before that landing on Barasu Island would be difficult, so the plan was changed to a half-day tour with two activities: the limestone cave and mangrove SUP. Since we had already made the payment, the difference was refunded.

In the end, it was a very satisfying tour and a lot of fun memories! We enjoyed it even without Barasu Island!

The duration, guide, and equipment were all just right. Depending on the tide, it might be better to protect your calves, as it can help guard against submerged trees and rocks. (We thought it was a good idea to do so.) The photos taken were also very beautiful, so you can relax during the activities without carrying anything! Even if it's your first time SUPing, they will teach you properly. They also take good care of you along the way.

If you want to experience the nature of Iriomote, I highly recommend it!

当初、バラス島含む３つのアクティビティを1日で回るツアーでしたが、波などの影響でバラス島上陸が難しいということで前日ご連絡いただき、鍾乳洞、マングローブSUPの２つを半日で回るプランに変更。支払い済んでたので差額はキャッシュバック。
蓋を開けてみれば、大満足のツアーでとても楽しい思い出です！バラス島なしでも満喫しました！

所要時間、ガイド、装備などどれをとってもちょうどよかったです。潮位にもよると思いますがふくらはぎまで保護してた方が水中の木や岩などから守ってくれていいかもしれません。(私たちはそうしてよかったなと思いました)
写真もとても素敵に撮ってくださるので、アクティビティ中は手ぶらで安心〜！
SUP初めてでもちゃんと教えてくれます。道中のケアもしっかりされています。
西表の自然を感じたい方は是非。

I was able to experience a variety of activities in one day. The guide's explanations and descriptions of the island were clear and enjoyable. The SUP experience was my first time, but I received a thorough lecture on how to ride from the beginning. It was easy to ride in the mangroves since there were no waves. It was a different experience compared to the views from the canoe.

I think it was just a coincidence, but we had Barasu Island all to ourselves as there were no other tour groups. Waves were coming from various directions, and it was incredibly beautiful.

We couldn't snorkel at Barasu Island due to high waves, but the cave exploration we did instead was very exciting. The natural cave had a different kind of beauty and grandeur compared to the well-maintained caves.

Since Iriomote Island is quite large, I think it would be great to either book a tour that takes you to various places or stay for one or two nights to enjoy it. There are still many places I haven't been to, so I would like to go again. Thank you very much.

１日でさまざまな体験ができました。
ガイドさんの案内や、島の説明がわかりやすくて楽しかったです。
SUP体験は初めてのことでしたが乗り方等１からレクチャーしてもらいました。マングローブ内は波もないため乗りやすかったです。カヌーからの景色とはまた違った体験ができました。
バラス島はたまたまだとは思うけど他のツアーの方がおらず貸切でした。いろいろな方向から波が寄せてきてすごく綺麗でした。
バラス島でのシュノーケルは波が高くできませんでしたが、代わりに行った鍾乳洞探検はとてもわくわくしました。自然にできた鍾乳洞で整備された鍾乳洞とは違った綺麗さ、壮大さがありました。
西表島はとても大きいため様々なところに行けるツアーの申し込むか、2泊か１泊かして楽しめたらいい島だと思いました。まだまだいけていないところがあるのでまた行きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

You can almost fully enjoy the tourist attractions in the northern region. The guide is kind as well. Of course, the aquarium is great, but personally, I think Submarine Jr. is nice; the beach there is beautiful, and the ocean view is refreshing. There are not many types of fish, but just being able to dive in the sea is already a lot of fun. On the other hand, the beach at Kouri Island seems a bit lacking? For some reason, everyone just ate ice cream instead of going to the beach. However, the view while running on Kouri Bridge is the best ❤️ It seems like the beach is not worth it.

北部地域の観光名所をほぼ堪能できる。ガイドさんも優しい。水族館はもちろん、個人的にいいと思うのはサブマリンJr、あそこのビーチは綺麗だし、海の景色も新鮮。魚の種類は少ないけど、海に潜られる時点でもう十分楽しい。逆に古宇利島のビーチはちょっと劣れ？皆さんもなぜかビーチに行かず、アイスクリームだけ食べたようです。ただ古宇利橋の上に走ってる時の景色は最高❤️ビーチはだめみたいね

Instead of choosing the plan that only includes landing on Barasu Island (without snorkeling) or snorkeling at Barasu Island, I decided on the cave exploration, and it turned out to be an excellent choice beyond my expectations.

This was not a typical well-maintained tourist cave; I had a valuable experience exploring the jungle and caves in their natural state.

Additionally, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of information, offering attentive service throughout the day. I highly recommend this if you're visiting Iriomote Island for the first time!

鍾乳洞探検が付く代わりに、バラス島は上陸のみ(シュノーケリング無し)のプランか、バラス島シュノーケリングか悩みましたが、鍾乳洞探検が想像以上に素晴らしく、こちらのプランにして正解でした。
観光地によくある綺麗に整備された鍾乳洞ではなく、自然の姿そのままのジャングルや洞窟を探検する貴重な体験ができました。
また、ツアーガイドの方も知識豊富で色々と教えてくださり、終日懇切丁寧な対応をいただきました。初めて西表島に行くのならとてもオススメです！

I experienced SUP for the first time and had a wonderful time paddling through the mangroves. I was also able to enjoy the natural beauty at the waterfall basin. Unfortunately, I couldn't go snorkeling due to the weather, but I enjoyed Yufu Island as an alternative. I hope to come back again while praying for good weather. Thank you very much.

はじめてSUPを体験しましたがマングローブの中を気持ちよく体験できました。滝つぼにも入れて自然を満喫できました。シュノーケリングは天候の都合でできませんでしたが、代わりの由布島も楽しめました。また天候を祈りつつ遊びにきたいと思います。ありがとうございました。

The natural limestone caves and mangrove canoeing created very enjoyable memories. Junjun is the best! Haha

I would like to use it again.

自然の鍾乳洞やマングローブカヌーは
とても楽しい思い出になりました
じゅんじゅん最高〜！笑

また利用したいです

It was my first time doing both stand-up paddleboarding and canyoning, so I had some anxiety, but the instructor was kind and taught us well, allowing us to have a great time.

During canyoning, they adjusted the difficulty to match our abilities, so we could enjoy it without any strain. It turned out to be a fun day.

サップもキャニオニングも初めてだったので、不安もあったのですが、インストラクターの方が、親切に教えて下さり、たのしく過ごせました。

キャニオニングでは、難易度に合わせてくださったので、無理なく楽しめました。
楽しい1日となりました。

This is the best. Even as someone born in the countryside of Kyushu, I saw such a beautiful starry sky for the first time in my life. The photos look like they are edited, but the sky is truly like that. I also checked the positions of the constellations.
We gathered late at night, and it was a place without any lights that made me anxious about arriving, but that's exactly why the starry sky is so beautiful. I definitely recommend it. I want to go again.
I also saw many shooting stars.

　これは最高です。九州の田舎生まれの私でも、生まれて初めてこんなきれいな星空を見ました。写真は合成のように見えますが、本当にそんな空です。星座の位置も確認しました。
　夜遅く集合で、カーナビ登録で行ったのですが、着くのが不安になるような光のない場所でしたが、だからこそ、きれいな星空があるのですね。是非、おすすめします。また行きたいですね。
　流れ星もたくさん見えました。

The area is not very convenient for transportation, so it's recommended for efficient sightseeing. The outdoor attractions were blessed with good weather, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful ocean views. I purchased freshly harvested sea grapes (fresh and inexpensive), and the cold draft beer was the best.

For lunch, I chose a personal order and enjoyed the cold noodles made with purple sweet potato (the purple sweet potato tempura was crispy and freshly fried). The "Churaumi Aquarium" met my expectations.

The Ocean Expo Park is vast, but due to the impact of COVID-19, there were few tourists, and I had plenty of time, so I also enjoyed the Tropical Dream Center, Okinawa Village, Ocean Culture Museum, and Emerald Beach (I walked quite fast, but I personally recommend the Tropical Dream Center).

After a sudden rain shower, we arrived at Pineapple Park. The indoor tour was problem-free, and I enjoyed drinking pineapple sparkling wine, resting with juice tastings and sweet samples, and taking photos with the dinosaur in the botanical garden.

Since I was staying in the beach resort area, it was easy to get off the bus first on the way back. During the bus ride, hand sanitization was mandatory, and masks were required. Depending on the facility, hand sanitization and temperature checks were thorough, and bus seating was assigned to avoid crowding.

交通手段が不便な地域の観光なので、効率よく回れてお勧めです。
外の観光は、天気にも恵まれて、美しい海の景観を堪能しました。
朝採り海ぶどうを購入(新鮮で安価）、冷たい生ビールが最高でした。
お昼は個人で自由オーダーを選び、紅芋の冷麺（紅芋の天ぷらは、カラッと揚げたて）を美味しく頂きました。　
「美ら海水族館」は期待通り。
海洋博公園内は広大ですが、コロナの影響で観光客も少なく、時間の余裕もあったので、熱帯ドリームセンター・おきなわ郷土村・海洋文化館・エメラルドビーチも楽しみました。（かなり早歩きでしたが・・・熱帯ドリームセンターは、個人的にお勧めです）
夕立があり、パイナップルパークに到着。屋内見学で問題なく、パイナップルスパーリングワインを飲み、試飲のジュースや試食スィーツで疲れを休め、植物園のダイナソーと写真を撮って楽しみました。
　ビーチリゾート地区に宿泊していたので、帰りは最初に降車で、楽でした。
バス乗車時は、必ず手の消毒。アスク着用。施設により、手の消毒と検温が徹底、バスの座席も、密を避けて座席指定をされていました。
　

It was my first time trying SUP, and I really enjoyed it. I felt rejuvenated in nature. Although the tour was changed due to the weather, I was very satisfied with the kind assistance I received. I would like to create another opportunity to participate again.

サップは初めてでしたが楽しめました。
自然の中で癒されました。
今回天候によってツアーが変更になりましたが、親切に対応していただけて大満足でした。また機会を作って参加したいと思います。

I had a photo shoot on Kaimajima, and the night sky was filled with stars, more beautiful than I've ever seen, like a planetarium. I tried to take pictures with my smartphone (the latest iPhone), but they didn't turn out, which made me realize that smartphone technology still has a long way to go. (laughs) When a professional took the photos, they captured the scenery as I saw it, and the pictures turned out beautifully. When I mentioned that we were on our honeymoon, they suggested a pose that felt like a proposal, and we ended up with some great photos. I highly recommend it as a valuable experience!

来間島での撮影でしたが、夜空がプラネタリウム並みに星だらけで見たことない程美しい星空でした。
自分のスマホで撮影しようと(iPhone最新版)しましたが写らずスマホの技術もまだまだなんだと実感しました。笑
プロに撮影して頂くと、目で見た景色が写し出されていてとてもキレイに撮って頂きました。
この度新婚旅行で伺った旨お伝えすると、プロポーズする感じで、とポージングを提案してくださり、いい感じの写真になりました★
貴重な体験になるのでオススメです！

The sea around Iriomote Island was truly beautiful. Additionally, we were taken by boat to a shallow area with marine blue waters, where my wife and I, despite being older, were able to swim comfortably. The staff were attentive and focused on safety, allowing us to have a fun snorkeling experience. In the morning, the rising tide hid Barasu Island, but in the afternoon, a narrow part of the island appeared, and we were able to land and take valuable photos. It seems that depending on the weather, there is a higher chance of being able to land in the afternoon, so I recommend the full-day experience course.

西表島の海は本当に綺麗でした。さらに船で浅瀬のマリンブルーの場所まで連れて行っていただき、初老の私と家内でも十分に泳ぐことが出来ました。
スタッフの方々も気配りと安全面を注視され、楽しいシュノーケリングを体験できました。
午前中は満ち潮でバラス島が隠れてましたが、午後には狭いですが島が現れ、上陸出来き貴重な写真も取れました。
天候にもよるようですが、比較的に午後は上陸出来る可能性があがるようで、１日体験コースがお勧めです。

I signed up for the cave, canoeing, and Balas Island tour, and I had valuable experiences that I wouldn't normally have. The guide provided clear instructions, making it easy to understand. The weather was relatively favorable, and the scenery at Balas Island was especially amazing! I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

鍾乳洞、カヌー、バラス島訪問ツアーに申し込みましたが、何れも普段体験できない貴重な体験ができました。ガイドさんもしっかり案内してくれるので分かりやすかったです。
天気にも比較的恵まれ特にバラス島の景色は最高でした！
また機会があれば利用したいと思います。

The galaxy, owls, bats, and coconut crabs. Not only did I enjoy the beautiful night sky, but also the great outdoors. The guide was also incredibly entertaining.

銀河、フクロウ、コウモリ、ヤシガニ。美しい夜空だけではなく、大自然も満喫。ガイドさんも最高に面白かった。

I participated after the four-day holiday in September. Unfortunately, the wind was strong, so we couldn't go snorkeling at Barasu Island, but they kindly contacted me the day before and changed the plan to a sunrise SUP session. On the day, I was the only participant, which allowed me to receive one-on-one instructions and explore the mangroves. I paddled up the tranquil Kuura River before dawn, saw the Sagarihana flowers, and even encountered fireflies. When I returned around sunrise, I was worried because clouds had started to appear, but I was able to see a golden sunrise through a break in the clouds. Surrounded by the magnificent nature in 360 degrees while listening to the sound of the waves and under the clear autumn sky, I felt like I was indulging in a luxurious moment all by myself. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

9月の4連休開けに参加しました。あいにく風が強くてバラス島のシュノーケリングはできませんでしたが、前日に連絡を下さり、朝日のSUPへ快くプラン変更して下さいました。当日の参加者はなんと私のみでしたが、おかげでマンツーマンで説明を聞くことができ、マングローブを探検することができました。夜明け前の静寂なクーラ川をSUPを漕いで昇り、サガリバナを見て、ホタルにも出会うことができました。朝日が昇る頃に戻り、雲が出てきたので心配でしたが、雲の切れ間から黄金の日の出を見ることができました。澄んだ秋空と波の音を聞きながら360℃雄大な自然に囲まれて、贅沢なひと時を一人占めした気分でした。素敵な体験をありがとうございました。

My first time on Iriomote Island!
We were blessed with good weather and made our way to Kura Falls surrounded by mangroves on a SUP board.
It truly felt like an adventure, and along the way, I was able to see various plants and animals. The guide provided detailed information about the names and ecology of the flora and fauna, which made it very enjoyable as I could understand and appreciate what I was seeing.
Exploring the limestone caves was also a great experience; feeling the nature on the way there was wonderful, but when I stood in front of the cave, it was so impressive that I felt a bit scared, haha.
I really enjoyed feeling the great outdoors!

はじめての西表島！
天候に恵まれクーラの滝までマングローブに囲まれた場所をSUPボードで進みました。
本当に冒険感があり進んでいくなかで様々な動植物を見ることができました。ガイドの方が動植物の名前や生態を詳しく教えてくれるので見て自分の中で納得できてとても楽しかったです。
鍾乳洞探険もそこに進むまでに自然を感じられ洞窟を前にした時迫力がありすぎて少し怖いと思いました笑
大自然を感じられ楽しかったです！

We were picked up at the hotel and taken to a stargazing spot. We went to a place that is usually not included in tours! There were absolutely no people around, and we were able to fully enjoy the stars filling the sky! After that, we went to the jungle and encountered several coconut crabs and a habu snake. We also had time to stargaze on the beach, enjoying the perfect situation while listening to the sound of the ocean. Our guide was very friendly, making the tour even more enjoyable.

ホテルまで迎えに来ていただき、星空スポットへ。
普段はツアーでは来ないという場所へ行きました！
周りにはまったく人がおらず、空一面の星を満喫できました！
その後はジャングルに行き、ヤシガニ複数匹とハブに出会うことができました。
その場でも海岸で星空を見る時間があり、海の音を聞きながらという最高のシチュエーションを楽しめました。
ガイドさんもとてもフレンドリーでより一層楽しいツアーとなりました。

I definitely wanted to see the starry sky when I came to Ishigaki Island, so I booked this tour. They picked me up from the hotel and we headed to the stargazing spot first. The guide, who was very knowledgeable about Ishigaki Island, took us to two locations. At first, there were a few clouds, but it gradually cleared up, and we could see a stunning starry sky and the Milky Way perfectly. The explanations about the constellations were also very enjoyable. After fully enjoying the starry sky by lying on our backs and taking photos, we headed into the jungle.

We were able to see rare turtles, precious hermit crabs, and really large bats, and the guide introduced us to many animals.

During the drive back, I was able to hear a lot about recommended places and Okinawa, making it a very satisfying tour.

Thank you very much!!

石垣島に来たら絶対に星空を見たいと思い、このツアーを予約しました。
ホテルに迎えに来ていただき、最初は星空スポットへ。
石垣島にとても詳しいガイドさんが、二箇所案内してくれました。
最初雲が少しかかっていましたが、だんだん晴れてきて、満点の星空と天の川もバッチリ見えました。星座の解説などもしていただき、とても楽しかったです。
仰向けで星を見たり、写真撮影などをしていただき充分星空を満喫した後に、ジャングルへ。

珍しい亀や貴重なヤドカリ、すごく大きなコウモリなど見ることができ、たくさんの動物を紹介していただきました。

送迎の道中も、おすすめの場所や沖縄のことをたくさん聞けて、大満足のツアーでした。

ありがとうございました！！

The waves were high and the ferry was really rocky because it was right after the typhoon! All three islands were great! I especially loved the relaxed atmosphere of Taketomi Island. It's a shame that if the weather had been better, I could have taken even more beautiful photos...

台風直後だったので波が高くてフェリーの揺れがすごかった！！
3島は全てよかったです！！特に竹富島はのんびりした空気がすごく好きです。お天気がよければもっと、素敵な写真がとれたのに残念でした、、、

On the day I arrived in Ishigaki Island, I participated in the water buffalo cart course. The water buffalo cart ride was leisurely and enjoyable. Since I had time until the return boat, I rode a bicycle to the beach. It was hot, but the beach was very beautiful, and I was able to have the best time.

石垣島到着日に、水牛車コースで参加しました。水牛車はのんびりと楽しかったです。帰りの船まで時間があったので、自転車でビーチへ。暑かったけど、とてもキレイで最高の時間を過ごすことができました。

It was my first time on Iriomote Island, and I had a great time experiencing the nature of mangrove SUP, waterfalls, and limestone caves! I was a bit anxious about trying SUP for the first time, but with the guidance I received, I was able to enjoy it by the end. Since this was a day trip, I hope to see the starry sky next time!

初めての西表島でしたが、マングローブSUP、滝、鍾乳洞の自然を感じられてとても楽しかったです！初体験のSUPで少し不安でしたが、教えていただき最後には楽しく乗ることができました^^今回は日帰りだったので次回は星空もみたいと思います！

I am very grateful to the guide for their help. Thank you for your attentive service. I appreciate the valuable experiences of canoeing and exploring the limestone caves.

ガイドさんには大変お世話になりました。
丁寧に対応して頂き感謝です。
カヌー体験や鍾乳洞への探検と貴重な体験をさせていただき感謝です

For our first trip to Ishigaki Island, we decided to try the Barasu and canoe waterfall adventure after much deliberation! Thanks to our friendly and very kind guide who explained and showed us so much, it truly became a wonderful memory! It's common for any tour company to have beautiful seas, but if you're unsure about which tour to choose, you can't go wrong here!

初の石垣島からの離島プラン、色々悩んでバラスとカヌー滝遊びに挑戦！
ガイドさんが気さく、とても親切で色々説明、案内してくれたおかげで本当に良い思い出になりました！
どこのツアー会社でも海が綺麗なのは当たり前、ツアー選びで迷ったらここで間違いなし！

I visited Northern Okinawa for sightseeing. Due to the impact of COVID-19, there were only three of us, but I am grateful for the guide's hard work. Please keep it up!

沖縄北部観光でした〜〜コロナの影響で3人と大変少ない人数でしたが、ガイドさんは一生懸命やって頂き感謝しています。これからも頑張ってくださいね。

It wasn't as immersive in nature as I expected from a night safari, but (well, the whole of Ishigaki is quite natural) I enjoyed the introduction of palm crabs, spiders, hermit crabs, and distinctive plants. The Ryukyu scops owl on the power lines was also a highlight.

As we were watching, the sky cleared up more and more, and the starry sky was incredibly clear, which was moving. The guides' love for Ishigaki and nature shone through, and even when things didn't go as planned, they surely found a way to keep the atmosphere lively.

ナイトサファリというほど大自然の中に突っ込むわけではなかったのが少し肩透かしだったけど、(まあ、石垣全体が自然多めなんだけど) ヤシガニ、クモ、オカヤドカリや特徴的な植物紹介も有り楽しめた。電線のリュウキュウコノハズクも。
鑑賞している間にどんどん晴れて来て星空がめちゃクリアだったのが感動的だった。ガイドさん達は石垣愛、自然愛がにじみ出ており、不発に終わった時も何とか盛り上げてくれるに違いない。

It was a tour for snorkeling at Barasu Island and mangrove SUP! They took a lot of photos and sent them to me right away, which was great♪ They also recommended some restaurants and spots, making for a very fulfilling day◡̈ I would love to join again when I come back to Iriomote Island⭐︎

バラス島シュノーケル、マングローブSUPのツアーでした！写真もたくさん撮ってすぐに送ってくれて、とても良かったです♪ オススメの飲食店やスポットも教えて頂き、とても充実した日を送ることができました◡̈　また西表島に来たら参加したいです⭐︎

This was the first activity after arriving in Ishigaki Island. I participated with my university friends. Initially, I was worried it might not be very exciting since we would just be riding cows, but once we got on, the guide played the sanshin and sang, and explained the island's attractions, making it a very enjoyable experience.

石垣島に来て最初のアクティヴィティでした。大学の友達と一緒に参加しました。当初は牛に乗るだけだからあまり盛り上がらないのかもと心配でしたが、乗ってみると添乗員さんが三線を引いて歌を歌ってくださったり、島の名所を説明してくださったり大変楽しい体験になりました。
