All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I recommend it because there are many islands around Ishigaki Island, and you can efficiently explore them even with limited time. The itinerary and efficiency are things you can't achieve when planning on your own, and it's also cost-effective! The guides at each sightseeing spot were enjoyable and great as well.

石垣島の離島がたくさんあって時間が限られる中で効率よく周れるので、おすすめです。
自分たちでスケジュール組むと出来ない行程と効率性、またお得さでした！
それぞれの観光スポットでのガイドも楽しくて良かったです。

I have participated in various sea turtle tours, but this was the first time I was able to see so many sea turtles and clownfish up close, and it was truly moving!

I tend to get seasick easily, and I accidentally left my motion sickness medication at the hotel, but our guide Mana was very considerate of my condition and taught me how to cope when I felt nauseous, so I was able to enjoy the tour until the end.

There was no shower available, but they had plenty of warm water prepared, so I was able to wash off completely.

After the tour, I had no plans, but when Mana heard that, she recommended some great spots, so I was able to enjoy the rest of the day as well!

The duo of Taro and Mana really livened things up, and they took lots of photos and videos, making it a memorable and fun tour! Thank you very much.

今まで色んなウミガメに逢えるツアーに参加しましたが、こんなに間近で沢山のウミガメやニモが見れたのは初めてで感動しました！

波酔いしやすいタイプのに、酔い止め薬をホテルに忘れて来てしまいましたが、ガイドのマナちゃんが体調を気遣ってくれて、酔った時の対処法を教えてくれたので、最後まで楽しめました

シャワーはなかったですが、暖かいお水をたくさん用意してくれてたので、全身洗えました

ツアー後も、なにも予定がなかったですが、それを聞いたマナちゃんがオススメスポットを教えてくれたのでツアー後も1日楽しめました！

タロちゃんマナちゃんコンビが盛り上げてくれて沢山写真も動画も撮ってくれて思い出に残る楽しいツアーでした！ありがとうございました。

I participated dressed nicely since it included drone photography, and I ended up getting such amazing photos and videos that my friends asked if I had a photo wedding!

Both Lee and the captain were friendly, and I had a great time. The boat had little rocking and moved at a leisurely pace, allowing us to see several sea turtles! Thank you for the wonderful memories.

ドローン撮影付きということで、お洒落な格好をして参加しましたが、フォトウエディング撮ったの？と友達から聞かれるくらいすごい素敵な写真や動画を撮ってもらえました！

リーさんも船長さんも気さくな人で、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
船も揺れが少なくゆっくりめな運行で、何匹かウミガメも見ることができました！
素敵な思い出ありがとうございました。

It was great to feel and see the beauty of Okinawa, and the way the tour guide spoke was easy to understand, which was also good. I have used VELTRA multiple times, and the staff members are the best.

沖縄の良さを感じ見る事良かったし添乗員さんの話し方が聞き取りやすく
良かったです
VELTRAは何度も利用していて
STAFFの方々最高です

The veteran bus guide was very good. Not only did they provide various explanations about Okinawa, but they also sang some famous Okinawan songs, making the journey a lot of fun. The bus interior was clean and comfortable.

Originally, I planned to drive around with a rental car, but due to the forecast of rain, I canceled the rental and booked this instead. It was the right choice to go with this option, as we were able to efficiently tour even in the rain.

It was a pity that we couldn't see the fields at Pineapple Park because it was out of season. I also regretted not being able to ride the cart due to the limited time for the visit, and I missed out on having meals like pineapple pizza. (However, it was nice that we could choose souvenirs after tasting.)

ベテランのバスガイドさん、とても良かったです。観光スポットだけでなく、沖縄にまつわる様々な説明や、沖縄の有名な歌も、いくつか歌っていただき、道中とても楽しかったです。
バス車内も綺麗で快適でした。
もともとは、レンタカーで周る予定が、雨の予報だったため、レンタカーをキャンセルして、こちらを申込みました。雨でも効率よく周れて正解でした。
パイナップルパークは、季節外れのため、畑が見れなかったのが残念でした。
見学時間に余裕がなく、カートに乗れなかったのと、パイナップルピザ等の食事が出来なかったのも心残りでした。(試食をしてからお土産を選べるのはよかった)

A Solo Trip to Ishigaki Island

This was my first time on a bus tour, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. I was excited about visiting a tropical island without thinking too much, but the guide's fluent narration provided insights into the history and connections of the island and its surrounding islets, which was very educational.

For lunch, I had a delicious Ishigaki beef hamburger. The mozuku vinegar was quite strong, and if you eat it too quickly, it can make you cough. But it was tasty!

The guide's performance of traditional songs while playing the sanshin was impressive. I was truly amazed. While there isn't much freedom in the itinerary, I recommend this tour for anyone visiting the island for the first time.

思い立ち一人旅の石垣島
バスツアー自体初めてですがとても良い経験をさせていただきました。
なにも考えず南国の島
などと浮かれていましたがガイドさんの流暢な語りで島や周辺の離島などの歴史や関わりなどを知り、とても勉強になりました。
ランチは石垣牛のハンバーグで美味しかったです。もずく酢は酢が強くて勢い良く食べるとむせます。でも美味しい

ガイドさんの三線を弾きながらの民謡は圧巻でした。流石だと思います
自由度はありませんが初めて島に行かれる方は参加するのをお勧めします。

The guide was very friendly to the children, and we were able to enjoy ourselves with peace of mind! Meeting the sea turtles and Nemo was the best!

子どもにとてもフレンドリーなガイドさんで、安心して楽しめました！
ウミガメやニモにも会えて最高でした！

The weather was unfortunately bad, but I still had a good time. On Taketomi Island, perhaps because it was right after the holiday, most shops were closed, and the few that were open had almost sold out of everything I wanted to eat, which was disappointing.

あいにくの天気でしたが楽しめました。竹富島では、連休明けだからかどこのお店もお休みで、やっと空いてた店もほとんど売り切れで食べたいものがなかったのは残念でした。

I participated in a tour of Uni Beach that I had wanted to join for a long time. The 360-degree view of the emerald green sea and the pure white sandy beach in front of me was so beautiful, it felt like I was in heaven!

During the tour, they also took aerial shots with a drone, and the gradient of Uni Beach and the sea from above was incredibly beautiful. I was moved when I saw the finished footage. It became a treasure that we could never have captured ourselves!

The guide was very kind and supported us throughout to ensure we created wonderful memories. I truly believe this is a tour that should be experienced when visiting Miyako Island. Thank you very much!

ずっと行ってみたかったユニの浜のツアーに参加しました。
目の前に広がる360度エメラルドグリーンの海と真っ白な砂浜は、まるで天国にいるような美しさでした！

ツアー中にドローンでの空撮もしていただいたのですが、上空から見るユニの浜と海のグラデーションは信じられないほど綺麗で、出来上がった映像を見た時は感動しました。自分たちでは絶対に撮れない最高の宝物になりました！

ガイドの方もとても親切で、素晴らしい思い出ができるようにと終始細やかにサポートしてくださいました。宮古島に来たら絶対に体験すべきツアーだと思います。本当にありがとうございました！

I was looking forward to visiting the northern region since I had never been there before. It was mentioned that there would be an accompanying tour conductor instead of a guide. Even though it was a tour conductor, I felt that the explanations were a bit lacking. There was an announcement about the departure time before getting off the bus, but the guidance on where to go and what to do was not very clear. In some places, there were explanations provided. It seemed that the microphone wasn't working well, so it appeared that only the people in the front seats were getting the explanations...

北部は行ったことがなかったので楽しみにしていました。
ガイドさんではなく添乗員さんの同行とのこと。
添乗員さんとはいえ説明が少し足りないと思いました。
バスを降りる前に出発時間のアナウンスはあるのですが、どこで何をするのか分かりやすい案内ではなかった。
場所によっては説明してくれる所もあった。
マイクの声がとおらなくて前方の席の人には説明してたようですが…

For my husband's birthday celebration, the two of us were able to meet the turtles 🐢 that we love while snorkeling 🤿. We had a wonderful time! Thank you, So-chan and Mana-chan 😊.

主人の誕生日の記念に、2人で、シュノーケル🤿大好きな亀🐢に、逢えました。
幸せな時間を過ごすことが出来ました♪
そうちゃん、まなちゃん、ありがとう😊

The most enjoyable part of my trip to Miyako Island was Uni Beach.

From the moment we set sail, the view of the ocean was truly beautiful, and the travel time while gazing at the stunning scenery became a special memory. The captain was very kind and friendly, which allowed us to relax and enjoy ourselves.

Although it was during the rainy season, we were blessed with good weather, and since it was morning, there were few people around, making it a great time to unwind. Additionally, I was able to see sea turtles, which was incredibly moving.

We also had the opportunity to capture wonderful videos with a drone, just like in a commercial, creating a lifelong keepsake.

Uni Beach, filled with beautiful scenery and precious experiences, is my favorite memory from my trip to Miyako Island and has become my best memory ever.

宮古島旅行で一番楽しかったのがユニの浜でした。

船で向かう途中から海の景色が本当に綺麗で、絶景を眺めながらの移動時間も特別な思い出です。船長さんもとても優しく親切で、安心して楽しむことができました。

梅雨の時期でしたが天気にも恵まれ、朝の時間帯だったので人も少なく、ゆったり過ごせたのも良かったです。さらにウミガメを見ることができて、とても感動しました。

ドローンでCMのような素敵な動画も撮影していただき、一生の記念になりました。

美しい景色と貴重な体験が詰まったユニの浜は、私にとって宮古島旅行で一番の思い出であり、過去一番の思い出になりました。

If you're going to the Churaumi Aquarium, this is the best choice. In this class, there are often additional charges for admission, but this price includes everything. At the Kouri Bridge, we were able to see sea turtles.

美ら海水族館に行くなら1番。このクラスだと、入場券別が多いが、込みでこの価格。古宇利大橋では、ウミカメにあえました。

I highly recommend the morning snorkeling, so I made an effort to wake up early and joined the 7:00 session. It was my first time snorkeling, but they carefully taught us warm-up exercises and safety tips, and once we entered the sea, I was overwhelmed by the beautiful water that made me forget my nerves.

I encountered so many creatures, including tropical fish, clownfish, lionfish, and sea snakes! I was really happy that they swam at our pace while sharing interesting facts about the marine life! Towards the end, I even got to see a sea turtle, which was incredibly moving 😂😂. I found the way the sea turtle came up for air to be so endearing!

Mana-chan and Sou-chan checked on our well-being throughout the experience, and I think it was thanks to these two that I could enjoy my first snorkeling adventure with peace of mind! Thank you so much! I want to visit Miyako Island again and go snorkeling; it was the best snorkeling experience ever! 😊

午前中のシュノーケリングがオススメということで頑張って早起きして朝イチの7:00で参加しました。初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、準備運動や気をつけることを丁寧に教えてもらいいざ海へ入ると、緊張していたことを忘れるほどの綺麗な海に圧倒しました。
熱帯魚やカクレクマノミ、ミノカサゴ、ウミヘビ等ほんとにたくさんの生き物に遭遇できました！生き物たちの豆知識をまじえながら私たちのスピードに合わせながら泳ぎ進めてくれたのもとても嬉しかったです！終盤、ウミガメにも会えて、めちゃくちゃ感動しました😂😂ウミガメの息継ぎする姿が愛おしく感じました笑
まなちゃん、そうちゃんにはその都度その都度、体調確認をしてくれてこの2人が居てくれたからこそ、初めてのシュノーケリングを安心して楽しめたと思います！ありがとうございました！また宮古島にも行きたいし、シュノーケリングもやりたいと思えた、最高のシュノーケリングになりました😊

The transfer from the boat to the bus to the water buffalo and back to the bus and then the boat can be quite a journey. I think it's better to avoid walking to the water buffalo riding area, especially on hot days, due to the elevation changes. I'm glad I went with a tour.

船→バスの送迎→水牛→バスの送迎→船
水牛乗り場まで、徒歩で行くのは高低差もあり、暑い日はやめた方が良いと思います。ツアーで良かったと思いました

I had a wonderful experience riding the water buffalo cart on Iriomote Island, which I had wanted to try after seeing it featured on TV and in magazines. Unfortunately, the weather was rainy and not very good, but the day flew by as we traveled between three islands by ferry and bus from the morning. Next time I go, I would like to stay overnight on each island.

以前よりテレビや雑誌で紹介されてる西表島の水牛車に乗ってみたかったのでたいへん良い思い出になりました。
あいにく天気は雨模様であまり良くなかったですが朝からフェリーやバス移動で3島巡りがあっという間に1日が過ぎた感じです。今度行くときは各島々に1泊しながら行ってみたいです

Since it was forecasted to rain, the day trip tour by bus was excellent. I was able to visit various places and I am very satisfied! The time management was also good, and I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

雨の予報だったのでバスで日帰りツアーは最高でした。色んな所へ行けてとても満足しています！時間配分的にも良くてまた機会があれば利用したいと思っています。

Hat an interesting tour! While I speak some Japanese the rest of my family does not. I did my best to translate what I could, but I know we missed out on a lot of the interesting facts about the water buffalo and the tradition and origin story of this interesting mode of transport. We wished we had also understood more about the mangroves.

Thank you for allowing me to participate in this tour 😊 I was healed by the adorable Maekun, and all my daily fatigue disappeared. It was so much fun! If there's another opportunity, I would love to join again 🥺 Thank you, Maekun!

今回ツアーに参加させて頂いてありがとうございます😊
可愛い真栄君に癒されて　日頃の疲れも飛びました　楽しかったです♪
また　機会がありましたらよろしくお願いします🥺
真栄君ありがとーー

The designated hotel shuttle service is available, and the transportation on the remote islands is well thought out, making it very convenient. On Iriomote Island, I was able to see the mangrove forests up close, and on Yubu Island and Taketomi Island, I enjoyed a leisurely pace of sightseeing while riding on water buffalo carts. The local guide's commentary was also entertaining. On Taketomi Island, if you want to get around and visit the highlights, it seems necessary to make a reservation for a rental bicycle in advance.

指定ホテル送迎もあり、離島での移動も効率よく考えられていて楽チンです。西表島ではマングローブ林をしっかり見ることができ、由布島と竹富島ではそれぞれ水牛車に乗って、のんびりしたペースで観光を楽しむことができました。現地ガイドさんのトークも面白かったです。竹富島では、島内を移動して見どころを回るならレンタサイクルの事前予約がないと厳しそうです。

良い体験で安全でした。知識豊富なツアーガイドです。

Good experience and safe
Well knowledge tour guide.

The staff members provided very detailed explanations about Ishigaki Island and its wildlife. During our visit, we were able to observe coconut crabs, sea snakes, and the Semaru hako turtle, among others. The staff caught a sea snake, so we had the experience of touching it, which was really fun! Unfortunately, the starry sky was cloudy and the moon was out, so that was a bit disappointing. I've heard that the stars are beautiful during a new moon. I would love to participate again!

スタッフの方々が石垣島の事や生き物の話をとても丁寧に説明をしてくださいます。私達の時はヤシガニ、海ヘビ、セマルハコガメ等々を観察できました。海ヘビはスタッフの方が捕まえられたので触る体験もできて、とても楽しかったです！星空は曇りだったのと月が出てたので少し残念。星空は真月の時が綺麗に観えるそうです。また参加したいと思います。

It was my first trip to Miyako Island! I had a great time seeing lots of fish in the beautiful sea! I was also happy to meet a sea turtle!

初めての宮古島旅行でした！
綺麗な海でたくさんお魚見れて楽しかったです！ウミガメにも会えて嬉しかったです！

I decided to take a solo trip to Miyako Island, but I only booked a hotel. Since it's a nice hotel, I thought maybe I wouldn't need to go out, but I really wanted to see the Snow Salt Factory and Irabu Bridge! So, I made a reservation for a three-hour tour.

Not only did we visit those two places, but the guide also took us to other bridges as time allowed, and I was very satisfied with the experience.

宮古島に一人旅することにしたは良いけど、ホテルしか予約していませんでした。良いホテルなので外に行かなくてもいいかな？とも思ったのですがやはり雪塩ファクトリーと伊良部大橋はやっぱ見ておきたい！と思い三時間コースで予約しました。
その2つはもちろんの事、時間の許す限り他の橋も連れて行ってくださり大満足でした。

Although it was a short three hours, I was able to think about various things and enjoy the food I wanted to eat, which was great. I also fully enjoyed the beautiful blue sea of Miyako Island. Above all, it was fun to hear various stories about Miyako Island, and the time flew by. Thank you very much. I would like to request your services again when I visit Miyako Island next time.

3時間と短い時間でしたが色々考えて回ってくださり、食べたかった物も食べれて良かったです。
宮古島のブルーの海も満喫できました。
何より宮古島の色んな話しもしてくださり楽しくあっという間でした。
ありがとうございました。
また宮古島に行く時はお願いしたいです。

I was lucky to have fewer people on this day and to enjoy the stunning scenery all to myself! The drone footage in such a fantastical setting felt special and became a great memory. The wide shots truly capture the beauty of Uni Beach!

Since it was a special occasion, I wish I had received advice in advance on how to pose as a subject to make the photos even more stylish. I also appreciated the bags for carrying the collected coral and shells, as well as the chilled drinks.

Having seen a wonderful sunset this time, I would love to come back next time to experience the emerald blue sea during the day!

この日は人が少なく素晴らしい景色を独り占めできたようでラッキーでした！
とても幻想的な情景の中、ドローンでの映像は特別感があり良い思い出になりました。引きの画があってこそのユニの浜ですね！
せっかくなので更にお洒落に撮ってもらうには被写体としてどうするのが正解だったのか…前もってアドバイスしてもらえたらありがたかったです。
拾った珊瑚や貝殻を持ち帰るための袋や冷えた飲み物も嬉しかったです。
今回素敵な夕日を観られたので次回は日中のエメラルドブルーの海を観るためにお世話になりたいです！

I participated in this tour for the first time with a friend in late May. It was hard to believe that it only took five minutes by boat to reach Uni Beach, where an extraordinary view I had never seen before unfolded. The white sandy beach appearing over the beautiful sea felt like a mirage, and I was moved from the moment we arrived. The footage captured by the drone showcased breathtaking views that I could never see myself, highlighting the clarity of the water and the beauty of nature even more. The staff were kind, allowing us to spend a fun and relaxing time. We even encountered a sea turtle along the way, creating a wonderful memory! This became a remarkable experience that will stay in my heart as a memory of Miyako Island. I highly recommend it to my friends! Thank you very much.

5月下旬に友達と2人で初めてこのツアーに参加しました。ボートでわずか5分とは思えないほど、ユニの浜には見たことのない特別な景色が広がっていました。綺麗な海の上に現れる白い砂浜はまるで幻の島のようで、到着した瞬間から感動しました。ドローンで撮影していただいた映像は、自分では見ることのできない絶景ばかりで、海の透明度や自然の美しさがより一層際立っていました。スタッフさんも親切で、安心して楽しい時間を過ごせました。途中でウミガメにも遭遇できて良い思い出になりました！宮古島の思い出として、心に残る素晴らしい体験になりました。友人にもおすすめしまーす！ありがとうございました。

I was able to see a starry sky that I can't see in Honshu! I was also moved by the guide's story about how there are no developed areas to the north in Ishigaki to protect the light of the stars.

本州では見れない星空が見れました！石垣では星の光を守るためにも北側には栄えたところがないというガイドさんのお話も感動しました

I was amazed by the sheer number of fish I've never seen before, all so colorful! I was also thrilled to see Nemo in person, something I've only seen in videos before.

これまで見たことないくらいたくさんのお魚と、色鮮やかな魚ばかりで感動しました！
初動画でしか見たことないニモも生で見れて感動

I had a very pleasant time crossing to the island on a water buffalo while listening to island songs. The mangrove cruise was also well explained and enjoyable. Exploring Taketomi Island on foot was challenging due to the heat, so I recommend renting a bicycle.

水牛でゆったりと島へ渡り　島唄も聴きながらとても気持ちの良い時間が過ごせました。マングローブのクルーズも上手に説明して頂き楽しかったです。竹富島は歩きでしたが、暑さもあり大変でした。　レンタサイクルがおすすめです。
