All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I was looking forward to the boat ride, but the waves were high, and my entire family got seasick.

The staff were very polite and took care of us kindly, but it was very disappointing that we didn't see a single whale.

I think it also depends on one's physical condition and constitution, but even if you usually don't get motion sickness, a boat can be different, and there's a possibility that you might get seasick and miss the chance to see whales. I think it's best for participants to keep this in mind.

楽しみに船に乗りましたが、波が高く、家族全員で船酔いしました。

スタッフの方の対応はとても丁寧で、優しく介抱していただきましたが、鯨が一目も見られず、とても残念でした。

体調や体質もあると思いますが、普段乗り物酔いをしなくても船は別もので、船酔いしてしまい、鯨を見るどころじゃなくなる可能性があることを念頭に参加された方がいいと思います。

In one day, we were able to visit popular tourist spots including the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium from Naha, and it was fulfilling. There were many foreign participants, but the tour guide provided clear directions and we kept to the schedule. They were a bright and kind person.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, we enjoyed the dolphin show and the manatee exhibit, and the two and a half hours flew by. We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the scenery.

I did wish we had a bit more time at each location, but I was satisfied after trying pineapple at Pineapple Park, Mont Blanc at the Okashi Goten, and sata andagi at Manzamo. I highly recommend this tour!

那覇から一日で美ら海水族館ほか人気観光地を回れ、充実してました
外国人の参加者も多かったですが、添乗員さんがポイントをしっかり案内されてて、時間どおり進みました　明るくて親切なステキな方でした
美ら海水族館ではイルカショーやマナティ館にも行ったりで、2時間半もあっと言う間でした
お天気にも恵まれ、景色を楽しむこともできました
各所、もう少し時間が欲しいなとは思いましたが、パイナップルパークでパイナップル、お菓子御殿でモンブラン、万座毛でサーターアンダギーといろいろ食べて満足、おすすめのツアーです

I was happy to be able to visit American Village after going to the aquarium.

The illumination was very beautiful, and the atmosphere was lovely.

I wished I had a little more time for shopping.

水族館に行き帰りには最後にアメリカンヴィレッジにいけて嬉しかったです。

ライトアップがとっても綺麗で、雰囲気が素敵でした。

お買い物の時間がもう少し時間が欲しかったです。

It was great that there was no wasted time, and it wasn't a hard schedule either, so I was able to enjoy myself. The river journey in Iriomote Island was a bit disappointing because the water wasn't clear, but it still became a good memory.

無駄な時間がなく、かと言って、ハードなスケジュールでもなく、
楽しめたのは良かったです。
西表島の川旅は、水が綺麗でなく、少しガッカリ
それも含めて良い想い出になりました。

I'm glad I was able to visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which I had wanted to go to for a long time.

It was fun to see the dugongs and enjoy the dolphin show.

ずっと行きたかった美ら海水族館に行けてよかった。

ジュゴンが見れたりイルカショーが見れて楽しかった。

It was disappointing that the glass boat tour was canceled due to the weather, but I was happy to meet the red panda at the alternative Neo Park.

天気の関係でグラスボートが中止になったのは残念でしたが、代りのネオパークでレッサーパンダに会えたのは嬉しかった。

Personally, it would have been a tough schedule to manage on my own, so I'm glad I could do it all in one tour.

I was very satisfied.

個人的にこのスケジュールをこなそうとすると大変なスケジュールなので、
一気にツアーで行くことができて良かった。

大満足でした。

I was prepared for insect bites and was able to participate in the jungle night tour without being bitten by mosquitoes, which was reassuring. Although it was not easy to find coconut crabs, I was thrilled when I saw several of them. Watching the starry sky on the coast was also a precious experience. Unlike in the city, the stars are beautifully visible when it gets dark. I would like to participate again when I find the opportunity.

虫刺されが準備されており、蚊などにも刺されず、安心してジャングルナイトツアーに参加できました。ヤシガニは簡単に見つかりませんでしたが、何匹もヤシガニを見れたときは感動しました。海岸で星空を見るのも貴重な体験でした。都会とは異なり、暗闇になると星空が綺麗にみられます。また機会を見つけて参加したいです。

It was my first time participating in a tour alone, but perhaps because it was the day after the Ishigaki Marathon, there were many solo participants, and I had a great time. I was glad to be able to efficiently visit tourist spots that I wouldn't have been able to reach without renting a car.

初めての一人参加のツアーでしたが、石垣マラソンの翌日のためか一人参加のかたも多く楽しめました。レンタカーを借りないのでなかなか行けない観光地に効率的に行けて良かったです。

I stayed at a hotel in Manza without a rental car, so I was looking for tours that depart from Manza and found one. There are many tours departing from Naha City, but there were hardly any tours that could pick us up in Manza to go to Kouri Island, so I was glad to participate. I was satisfied with the efficient sightseeing in places that are not accessible by public bus. The weather was nice, and the beach on Kouri Island was very beautiful and impressive.

レンタカーの予約なしで万座のホテルに宿泊したため、万座から出発できるツアーを探していてヒットしました。
那覇市からの出発ツアーはたくさんあるのですが、万座でピックアップしてもらえる古宇利島に行けるツアーはほとんどなかったので参加できて助かりました。
路線バスでいけない場所に効率よく観光ができて満足です。天気が良かったので古宇利島のビーチが大変美しく印象的でした。

I participated because I wanted to see the starry sky. On the day of the event, it was cloudy, and I thought there might be only a 10% chance of seeing the stars, but luckily, the clouds cleared, and I was able to see shooting stars!

As we moved through nature (almost a jungle) with just one flashlight, there was a nice thrill, and I felt like an explorer. It seems that in summer, there are more active creatures to see, but even in winter, I was able to discover about five different types.

It was fun to line up with all the participants and search for creatures while shining our lights around.

星空が見たくて参加しました。当日は曇り、星空指数10%で見えないかも、と思っていましたが、運良く雲が流れ流れ星も見ることができました！
自然の中（ほぼジャングル）を懐中電灯１つで進んでいくので、程よいスリルもあり探検家気分を味わえます。冬よりも夏の方が生き物が活発になってたくさん見れるそうですが、冬でも5種類ほど発見することができました。
参加者みんなで一列に並び、あちこちを照らしながら生き物を探し、楽しかったです。

Due to the weather, the tour to Balas Island was canceled, so my daughter and I participated in the mangrove canoe and Yufu Island tour.

In the mangrove canoe, we were overwhelmed by the great nature of Iriomote. There was a lecture at the beginning of the canoeing, and I was able to grasp the technique after paddling a bit. Thank you to Matt-chan for taking so many wonderful photos.

On the bus, we heard a lot about Iriomote Island and learned that its current state is due to the efforts of the local people to protect the great nature.

The water buffalo cart ride to Yufu Island was also a lot of fun! The expression of the young buffalo trying to return to the opposite shore where food was, without letting us off, was so cute.

When we entered the butterfly garden, butterflies came to greet us. The gelato made with butterfly pea and Okinawan salt at the recommended Yufu Island tea house might be the most delicious I've ever had.

Next time, I want to visit with my whole family. I will rely on Pipi-san again then. Thank you very much.

天候の影響でバラス島ツアーは欠航となり、娘と2人でマングローブカヌーと由布島ツアーに参加してきました。
マングローブカヌーでは西表の大自然に圧倒されます。カヌーは最初にレクチャーがあり、少し漕いでいるうちにコツを掴むことができました。担当してくれたまっちゃん、たくさんステキな写真を撮ってくださってありがとうございました。
バスの中でも西表島についてのお話がたくさん聞けて、大自然を守る地元の人々の努力で今の姿があることを知ることができました。
水牛車で渡る由布島もとても楽しかった！
お腹が空いた若い牛さんが乗車している私たちを降ろす間もなくごはんがある対岸に戻ろうとした時のこちらを伺う表情がとても可愛いかった〜
蝶々園に入ると、出迎えてくれるように蝶々がやってきてくれます。
おすすめの由布島茶屋さんで食べたバタフライピーと沖縄の塩を使ったジェラートは今まで食べた中で1番の美味しさかもしれません。
今度は家族みんなで訪れたいです。
その際はまたpipiさんにお世話になります。
ありがとうございました。

We signed up for this tour because our travel schedule was limited and we didn't have a car, allowing us to visit the main tourist attractions by bus. There was no bus guide, but instead, there was an audio guide on board that provided information. It introduced various knowledge about Okinawa, making it very easy to understand, and I felt it was a great system.

Pineapple Park was not only home to a diverse range of plants beyond my expectations, but it also had dinosaur sculptures on display, making it a wonderful place for both adults and children to enjoy. The Churaumi Aquarium was larger than I expected, and to be honest, I wished we had a bit more time for sightseeing, but I was satisfied to visit one of Okinawa's representative tourist spots. Lunch was scheduled at the aquarium, but considering the limited time and the few restaurant options, I think it might be a good idea to have lunch during the bus ride.

Additionally, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery from the bus windows and the beach at Kouri Island, making it a course where we could fully enjoy the charm of Okinawa within a limited time. I highly recommend this plan for those visiting Okinawa for the first time or for those who do not have a car!

私たちは旅行の日程が限られており、車もなかったため、バスで主要な観光名所を巡ることができるこちらのツアーに申し込みました。本ツアーにはバスガイドはおらず、その代わりに車内での音声ガイドによる案内がありました。沖縄に関するさまざまな知識を紹介してくれるため、とてもわかりやすく、良いシステムだと感じました。
パイナップルパークは想像以上に多様な植物が楽しめるだけでなく、恐竜のオブジェの展示もあり、大人も子どもも楽しめる素敵な場所でした。美ら海水族館は予想よりも広く、正直なところもう少し観光時間が欲しかったですが、沖縄の代表的な観光名所を訪れることができて満足でした。昼食は水族館で取るスケジュールでしたが、時間が限られていることや、レストランの選択肢が少ないことを考えると、バスの移動中に昼食を済ませておくのも一つの方法かと思います。
また、古宇利島のビーチや車窓からの美しい景色も楽しめ、限られた時間の中で沖縄の魅力を十分に満喫できるコースでした。沖縄を初めて訪れる方や、車を持たない方に特におすすめのプランです！

It was a cold day, so I couldn't meet the coconut crab, but when I looked up at the sky, countless stars were shining. I was overwhelmed by the number of stars that can't be seen in the city; it was an amazing experience. The sheer number of stars made me feel like I was on a jungle adventure, creating memories that I had never experienced before.

This time I came with friends, but I want my family to enjoy this experience when we visit Ishigaki Island again.

寒い日だったのでヤシガニと会うことは出来ませんでしたが、空を見上げてみると無数の星が輝いていました。街では見られない星の数に圧倒され、とても最高な経験でした。都会では見れない星の数に感動でジャングル探検みたいな感じも味わったことのない経験で、かなりの思い出になりました。
今回は友達と来たので、家族で再び石垣島に来た際には家族にも味わってもらいたい経験でした。

I used a private sightseeing taxi for the first time. The female driver was safe and drove comfortably, efficiently taking me to the places I wanted to go based on my preferences, and she also showed me some beautiful sights along the way. She was very pleasant and we had enjoyable conversations, making for a comfortable and fun time. I felt sad to say goodbye at the airport... I definitely want to request this service again for my next trip to Okinawa. Thank you very much! (^o^)

初めて観光の貸切タクシーを利用しました。女性のドライバーさん、安全運転、快適な社内、私の希望で行きたい場所を効率よく回って下さり、プラスで通り道の景色の良いところも案内して下さいました。とても感じがよく楽しいおしゃべり、快適で楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。空港でのお別れが寂しくなるほど、、、次回の沖縄旅行でも是非お願いしたいです。ありがとうございました(^o^)

I was able to visit Kouri Island and Pineapple Park, which I hadn't been to yet during my tour of the main island. I couldn't help but think about why pineapples are so cute while taking photos, and the staff who helped us were cheerful, which really lifted my spirits! I also got to enjoy a lot of delicious food from Okinawa, and I finally made it to Kouri Island. The guide was very kind and shared many stories about Okinawa's legends and history, and they were great at singing too! The weather was wonderful, making it a fun tour.

本島巡りで、まだ行けていなかった古宇利島、パイナップルパークにも行けました。
パイナップルって、なんで可愛いんだろう、、って思いながら、写真撮って貰う時のスタッフさんも明るくて、ついついテンション上がりました！
沖縄の美味しいものも沢山食べたり、念願の古宇利島へも行けて、ガイドさんも親切に沢山いろんな沖縄の伝説や歴史について話してくださり、歌も上手でした！
天気にも恵まれて楽しいツアーでした。

I participated with my 3-year-old and 5-year-old children. It was nighttime and drizzling lightly. The kids wore thin long sleeves and raincoats, while the adults wore thin long sleeves with ultra-light down jackets and a thicker long-sleeve sweatshirt. Since we were in Okinawa, I thought it would be fine to dress a bit lighter as we would warm up while walking. By the way, the guide's shorts had an incredibly cute pattern.

Although the weather was bad and we couldn't see the stars, we were still able to discover many animals and plants, which made for a high overall satisfaction. There are limited activities available for a 3-year-old, but I recommend this tour. However, I think it would be tough to carry them, so it's best if they can walk on their own or have a baby carrier.

3歳と5歳の子ども連れで参加しました。夜で小雨も降っていました。子どもは薄めの長袖にレインコート、大人は薄めの長袖にウルトラライトダウン、厚めの長袖トレーナー1枚で参加しました。沖縄ですし、歩いて温かくなるので気持ち薄手の恰好で良いかと思います。ちなみに案内役のお兄さんの半ズボンがめちゃくちゃかわいい柄でした。
天候が悪く星は見ることができませんでしたが、それでも動物・植物をたくさん発見できて全体的に満足度が高かったです。3歳だと参加できるアクティビティが限られますがこのツアーはオススメです。ただし抱っこしながらはしんどいと思うので、自力で歩いてもらうか、抱っこ紐必須だと思います。

It was drizzling, and we couldn't see the stars, but that allowed us to thoroughly explore the jungle for creatures during the tour. On the shuttle bus heading to the jungle, the guide provided a lot of explanations, making the time spent very exciting.

Although it was winter and creatures are not very active during this season, we ended up encountering about ten different species, and both children and adults were very satisfied. Our 3-year-old, who usually doesn't walk much and asks to be carried, surprisingly wanted to walk on their own and went on the exploration.

小雨が降っていて星は見えませんでしたが、そのぶんジャングルで生き物をじっくり探すツアーができました。ツアーを行うジャングルに向かうまでの送迎バスの中でもお兄さんがたくさん解説してくださり、わくわくしながら時間を過ごせました。
冬で生き物があまり活発ではない時期とのことでしたが、結果10種類くらいの生き物に出会うことができ、子どもも大人も大満足でした。
我が家の3歳は普段自分であまり歩かず抱っこをせがむのですが、珍しく自分で歩きたいと言って探検していました。

I used a charter taxi for two days. The drivers were different each day, but both were kind and friendly. On the first day, the driver introduced us to various landmarks and Okinawan culture. The driver on the second day also guided us according to our wishes. I will use this service again.

二日間貸切タクシーを利用しました。ドライバはそれぞれ違う方ですが、2人とも親切で接してくれました。一日目のドライバは途中の名所も沖縄の文化も紹介してくれました。二日目のドライバも我々の希望通り案内してくれました。
また利用させていただきます。

It was a windy and cold day, so unfortunately, I couldn't see the coconut crabs, but the clouds were blown away by the wind, revealing the best starry sky. I might have enjoyed it even more if I had studied the winter constellations beforehand. I want to participate in a different season next time!

風も強く寒い日だったので、残念ながらヤシガニには会えませんでしたが、雲が風に流され、最高の星空がみえました。冬の星座を予習してから参加すればもっと楽しめたかもしれません。
今度は違う季節に参加したいです！

After getting on the bus, my friend, who started feeling unwell after a while, surprised us by saying she wanted to go back to the hotel. We decided to consult the guide, and after talking to them, they provided us with polite assistance, allowing her to recover and enjoy the rest of the trip.

This was my fifth time in Okinawa, but it was my friend's first visit, so I was relieved we didn't have to make any unscheduled stops. I usually rely on public transportation and walking to reach my destinations, so this was my first time taking a bus like this. I enjoyed visiting Pineapple Park, Manzamo, and Kouri Bridge, which were all new experiences for me. Thank you to the guide and the driver.

If I had to say something, I wish I could have spent a little more time at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. However, given our packed schedule, I suppose time constraints are inevitable.

バスに乗って、しばらくして体調不良を訴えた友人は、ここでホテルに帰ると言い出してびっくり。ガイドさんに相談してみよう、ということで、話したら丁寧な対応をしていただいて彼女は復調して最後まで楽しむことができました。
私は沖縄５回目でしたが、友人は初めてでしたし、途中下車しなくてよかったです。
私は、今まで自力主義で路線バスや歩きで目的まで行くので、こういうバスに乗ったのは初めてでした。パイナップルパークや万座毛、古宇利大橋は初めてでしたの、楽しめました。
ガイドさん、ドライバーさん、ありがとうございました。


あえて言えば、もう少し、美ら海水族館にいたかった・・です。欲張りな日程なので、時間不足は敷かないのでしょうが。

The scenery was beautiful, and we visited several places in one day. Both the driver and the guide were great. I will book again later. I am very satisfied.

景色がきれいで、一日にいくつかの場所に行きました。運転手もガイドもいいです。後でまた予約する。とても満足です

When I moved from Ishigaki City to the western tip of the island, I was able to see the starry sky on a cloudy day with light rain at the beach! It's indeed difficult to see coconut crabs in winter, but I had no regrets as I could observe them up close at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. The energetic guide who introduced us to various spots from the forest to the beach was also well-received. ^^

石垣市内から島の西先端に移動したら、曇りに小雨だったな日にもビーチで星空を見えました！
ヤシガニを冬で見るのはやはり難しいですが、美ら海海洋博公園で近距離での観察が出来ますので、とくに悔いはなし。
森林からビーチまで色々紹介してくれた元気なガイドさんも好評です^^

It was my first time in Okinawa and my first bus tour, and I was very satisfied. It was a great deal to visit so many places in one day with entry tickets included.

The tour guide's enthusiasm and consideration to ensure everyone had a good time were wonderful!

The souvenir shop's recommendation of "this is what we recommend here" was also nice.

However, I was surprised that… I was told via email that it would be a white or red bus, but when I waited, it didn't come at all. The tour guide called out names and helped me find it, so I was able to board safely, but the bus that arrived was blue.

I was a bit worried when I signed up, wondering if this bus company would be okay, but I was very satisfied with my choice. I would like to use their services again when I come back to Okinawa.

初めての沖縄で初めてのバスツアーでしたが大満足です。
1日でこれだけ回れて入場券付きはお得。

添乗員さんの全力で楽しんでもらおうという意気込み気遣いが素晴らしい！！

お土産さんの「ここではこれがオススメですよ」も良かったです。

ただひとつびっくりしたのは……メールで白か赤のバスですとのことだったので、待っていたらぜんぜん来なくて。
添乗員さんが名前を呼んで探してくれたので無事に乗れましたが。当日来たのはブルーのバスでした。

申し込む時はこのバス会社で大丈夫かなぁと不安でしたが申し込んで大満足でした。また沖縄に来た時はお世話になりたいと思います。

I was able to enjoy various things slowly without worrying about driving in an unfamiliar place. I was able to see everything in a limited time and had a very effective and enjoyable experience! Thank you.

慣れない場所での運転を気にする事なくゆっくりと色々楽しめました。
限られた時間で全て周れてとても有効に楽しめました！
ありがとうございました。

It was supposed to rain, but surprisingly, the clouds held off. Although it was slower than walking, I applaud the water buffalo for their effort. I encountered a kingfisher in the mangroves, which made for a very enjoyable time. Finally, we visited Taketomi Island. It was full of old-fashioned charm, and I was able to savor the good old days. I would love to come back again.

雨予報でしたが、なんと雲でもってくれました。時間的には、徒歩より遅いですが、水牛のがんばりに、拍手👏。マングローブでは、カワセミに遭遇。ととても楽しい時間でした。最後は、竹富島。昔の雰囲気がいっぱいで、古き良き時代を満喫できました。再度来たいと思います。

In January, the skies over Ishigaki Island are always thick with clouds, making it unsuitable for stargazing compared to the mainland. However, even without seeing the stars, I was able to deepen my understanding of the Ishigaki Island ecosystem through the creatures and plants I encountered during my jungle exploration. On the other hand, I was worried that the cold wave approaching would prevent the coconut crabs from coming out, but unexpectedly, I was lucky enough to see one. During my previous trip to Amami Oshima, I only encountered hermit crabs, so this time I was very satisfied.

1月の石垣島上空は常に雲が厚く、本土より天体観測には不向きですが、星空見えなくてもジャングル探検の途中で出会った生き物と植物で、石垣島生態系に対する理解を深められました。一方あいにく寒波が近寄ってきて寒さのあまりでヤシガニが外に出てくれないだろうと思ってたんですけど、予想外に1体見れてラッキーでした。前奄美大島旅した時はヤドカリとしか出会えなかったので今回は大満足でした。

The midnight jungle tour was filled with excitement that you can't experience normally, and I encountered many creatures that you wouldn't find on Honshu. The night sky was so full of stars that I couldn't even tell which constellations were which, and it was truly moving. The tour guide was wonderful as well.

夜中のジャングルツアーは普段味わえないワクワクがあり、本州では出会えない生き物とたくさん遭遇できました。
夜空も何がどの星座か分からないぐらい星がありすぎて感動しました。
ツアーのガイドさんも素敵でした。

It's quite challenging to arrange everything on your own, but being able to leave it all to someone else is really helpful. I highly recommend this for those who want to visit various places and see different sights, even if it's a bit rushed! The transportation to and from the hotel and experience locations is very thorough! The bus driver on Iriomote Island was also very entertaining. I have difficulty walking and used a cane, but they were very considerate about the seating, and I was extremely satisfied.

個人で手配すると大変ですが全てお任せ出来るのがとても助かります。少し駆け足ですが色々な所を回りたい、見たい人には凄くおすすめです！ホテルまでの送迎や体験場所までの送迎もついて至れり尽くせりです！西表島のバスの運転手さんの話も面白かったです。足が悪く杖をついていましたが、座席なども気を使って頂いて大満足でした。

First of all, the bus driver who guided us around Iriomote Island was very good at explaining things, which was great. The water buffalo cart to Yufu Island was also nice because we could listen to live sanshin music. However, I felt that we had a bit too much free time on Yufu Island itself. After that, we had the Nakama River mangrove tour, but I think it would have been more enjoyable to reverse the order, shorten the time on Yufu Island, and extend the time on Taketomi Island.

先ず、西表島は島内移動バスの運転手さんのガイドは説明が上手く、良かったです。
由布島への水牛車も、三線生歌を聞けて良かったです。
ただ、由布島自体は少し時間を持て余す感じでした。
その後、仲間川マングローブツアーでしたが、順番は逆にして由布島も短くして、
竹富島の時間を長くした方が楽しめる気がしました。
