My first visit to Ishigaki Island was inspired by a TV show where I saw people riding water buffalo carts to Yubu Island, and I thought it looked interesting, so I immediately signed up for this tour.
The mangrove cruise on the Nakama River in Iriomote Island was guided by a woman who shared fascinating information about the types of mangroves and their species in a relaxed manner. The pleasant weather made the experience even better.
During the bus ride from Nakama River to the water buffalo cart, the driver's jokes kept us entertained, making the journey enjoyable.
On the water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, we learned that unlike deer, water buffalo horns do not grow back once they are broken, while the woman guiding the buffalo sang with a sanshin. It was an unexpected and wonderful experience. The water buffalo I rode had a large rear and was strong, living up to my expectations and making it the best experience.
初めての石垣島、たまたまテレビで由布島へ水牛者に乗って渡るのを見て、面白そうだと思ってすぐにこのツアーに申し込みました。
西表島での仲間川のマングローブ遊覧はガイドが女性の方で、マングローブの種類や種のことなど、ゆっくり面白く話をしてくれました。天気に恵まれたこともあって気持ちよかったです。
仲間川から水牛車への移動のバスでは運転手の方のジョークが利いていて、飽きることなく楽しく移動できました。
由布島へ渡る水牛車では、水牛の角はシカと違って折れたら生えてこないことなどの話を聞きながら、水牛を操る女性の方が三線で歌ってくれました。予期してなかったこともあっていい体験ができました。乗った水牛はおしりが大きくて引っ張る力も力強く、期待を裏切らず最高でした。

The explanation at the initial meeting point was very polite and easy to understand. However, I rode the water buffalo cart three times, and each time I was in the back seat... There was no consideration for that at all. Well, it's fine since all I could see was the back of the water buffalo, but it was amusing. The advantage of being in the back seat is that I could take pictures of the water buffalo carts coming from behind!
最初の集合場所での説明。
非常に丁寧に分かりやすく説明してくれました。
一つだけ、水牛車3回乗ったんやけど
3回とも後方の座席…
そういう配慮は一切なかったね
まぁ、見えるのは水牛さんのお尻やからええねんけど笑
後方の座席ならではは、後ろから来る水牛車を撮影出来ることかなー笑

I participated in this tour because I wanted to visit Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island in one day. At first, I considered renting a car and going on my own, but I decided to join this tour because it seemed like a hassle and would take too much time.
The boat ride through the magnificent mangroves made me feel very elegant. Until now, I thought mangroves were just a type of tree, but I learned here that they refer to a group of plants that grow in coastal areas where freshwater and seawater mix.
On the bus to Yufu Island, which I would have just passed by if I were on my own, there was an explanation about the island, and I was glad I chose the tour for this reason.
I was amazed by the strength of the water buffalo during my first experience riding in a water buffalo cart. While we enjoyed the leisurely pace of the water buffalo, I also thought it must be hard work for them, and felt a bit sorry for them.
Walking around Yufu Island, surrounded by nature different from the main island, while seeing trees and flowers I had never seen before was wonderful.
On Taketomi Island, we took a bus to the beach. I heard that star sand can be found there, but it seemed quite difficult to collect, so I gave up.
Taketomi Island had beautiful townscapes surrounded by red roofs and flowers, which were very lovely.
Overall, I thought it was a good tour that allowed us to efficiently visit many places in a short time, but I wondered if it would have been even better if we could have gone further north.
1日で西表島、由布島、竹富島に行きたくて、このツアーに参加しました。
初めはレンタカーを借りて自力で行くことも考えましたが、自力で行くには手間や時間が大変そうなので、こちらのツアーに参加することに決めました。
大自然のマングローブの中での遊覧船はとても優雅な気持ちになりました。今までマングローブとは木の名前だと思っていましたが、淡水と海水が入り交じる沿岸に生育する植物郡の総称だとここで初めて知りました。
個人で行くとただ通りすぎるだけの、由布島に向かうバスでも島の説明がありこの点もツアーにしてよかったと思いました。
初めての水牛車は水牛の力強さに驚かされました。水牛のマイペースさにいやされて、私たちは楽しかったのですが、水牛にとっては大変な重労働、気の毒かな?とも思いました。
由布島は本島と違った大自然の中、初めて見る木や花などを見ながらの散策が最高でした。
竹富島ではバスに乗りビーチに行きました。
星の砂が取れるらしいのですが。取るのはなかなかむずかしそうなのであきらめました。
竹富島は赤い屋根と花に囲まれた美しい町並みがとても素敵でした。
総合的に短い時間で効率的に回れるよいツアーだと思いましたが、北の方にも行けたらさらによかったかな?と思いました。

First of all, I was extremely satisfied with the water buffalo cart and the interaction with the water buffalo! The water buffalo are sensitive to heat, but I was moved by their effort to cross the sea, and I was surprised at how intelligent they are! The guides hardly needed to direct them; they managed to start and stop on their own! It's hard to convey this in words, so you should definitely go and experience it for yourself!
The lunch was just the right amount, and I was able to enjoy the botanical garden and souvenir shops without any rush. It seems that it's good to wear clothes that can get wet during the summer, but since I went in October, wearing short sleeves and shorts was perfectly fine! Please make sure to visit!
まず、手っ取り早く大満足だったのが水牛車、そして水牛さんとの触れ合いでした!
暑さには弱い水牛さん達ですが、頑張って海を渡る姿には感動しましたし、何より水牛さん達が非常に賢くて驚きました!先導員さん達もほとんど誘導する事なく、自力で発車から停車まで頑張ってくれますよ!文字じゃ伝わりづらいので実際に行ってみてください!
お昼ご飯もちょうどいい量でしたし、無理なく植物園やお土産屋さんを見ることができました
夏場は濡れてもいい格好が良いらしいですが、10月にいった身としては半袖半ズボン私服で全然okでした!ぜひ行ってみてください

Since I had extra time than planned, I made a reservation the day before and participated alone. I recommend this for those without transportation who want to visit the main tourist attractions on the island.
Regarding the Churaumi Aquarium, I felt the time allocation was satisfactory, but for those who want to have a proper lunch or take their time exploring the exhibits, it might not be enough. You can see the dolphin show!
In my personal opinion, instead of ending at American Village, it might be nice to change the location to a place where you can enjoy the sunset and take beautiful photos.
予定より滞在時間が余ったため、前日に予約して1人で参加しました。足が無い人で、本島の観光名所をとりあえず回りたい人にはおすすめです。
美ら海水族館については、私は満足な時間配分だと思いましたが、昼食をしっかり取ったり、館内をじっくり見たい人には足りないかもしれません。イルカのショーは見れます!
個人的な意見ですが、最後はアメリカンビレッジではなく、夕日が落ちるまでじっくり見れる場所に変更しても綺麗な写真が取れて良いのではないかと思いました。

Second visit to Ishigaki Island.
Last year, I only went to Taketomi Island, so this year I participated in a tour of Iriomote Island and Yufu Island.
When I actually went, I found that the water buffalo cart station and the mangrove cruising boarding area were far from the port. If I had gone on my own, I would have needed a rental car or taxi, so the hotel shuttle and bus tour to the site were smooth, and it was great not having to buy tickets myself! The stories from the bus driver and the cruising staff were entertaining! On Yufu Island, perhaps due to the season, there were fewer flowers and the lunch bento was not great, but above all, crossing with the sound of the sanshin and feeling the wind on the water buffalo cart was the best!
I also got to interact with the water buffalo, Ruikun, and he was super cute!
2度目の石垣島
昨年は竹富島オンリーだったので
今年は西表島と由布島ツアーに参加しました。
実際行ってみると港から水牛車乗り場や、マングローブクルージングの乗り場までが遠く、個人で行ったならレンタカーやタクシーが必要になるので、ホテルの送迎から現地までのバス観光がスムーズで自分でチケットを買う必要もなく良かった!バスの運転手の方やクルージングのスタッフの方の話が面白かった!由布島では季節のせいか花々が少なくランチのお弁当がイマイチだったけど、なんといっても三線の音色と風を感じて渡る水牛車は最高!
水牛ルイ君とも触れ合えてめちゃ可愛かったです。

On October 12, my spouse and I participated in the tour. The mangrove cruise had staff who provided detailed and easy-to-understand explanations, allowing us to truly appreciate the nature of Iriomote Island.
The water buffalo cart to Yubu Island was just as satisfying as I had seen in magazines. I could hear the sound of the seawater as the buffalo stepped through the shallow waters, accompanied by the sanshin and Okinawan folk songs, while enjoying the color of the clear sky and the leisurely flow of time. On Yubu Island, there were subtropical plants, butterflies, gelato, and more; 90 minutes, including meals, felt insufficient.
After the island tour, we returned to Ishigaki Island Terminal at 3 PM. Since we had a shuttle service to our hotel, we were able to relax until dinner, which was great.
Lastly, I was very impressed by the well-maintained restrooms at the places we visited in Ishigaki Island. Thank you very much.
10月12日に夫婦二人で参加しました。マングローブクルーズはスタッフの説明も丁寧でわかりやすく西表島の自然に感じることができました。
由布島への水牛車は雑誌等で見ていた通り、大満足しました。水牛が浅瀬を一歩一歩進む時の海水の音と三線と沖縄民謡 晴天の空の色、ゆったりとした時の流れを感じることができました。由布島では、亜熱帯植物 蝶々 ジェラート等々 食事を含めた90分では足りないくらいでした。
二島巡りで15時から石垣島ターミナルへ帰港。ホテルまで送迎付きだったので夕食までのんびりとした時間も取ることができ良かったです。
最後に石垣島に来て立ち寄った所のトイレの手入れが行き届いていて大変感動いたしました。
ありがとうございました。

This time, I participated in this activity with a companion. First, we took a ferry from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island. I was worried that the ferry would be quite rocky before boarding, but it only swayed a little at times, which actually heightened my sense of adventure and made for an enjoyable ride.
Upon arriving at Iriomote Island, we took a cruise ship for a mangrove tour. The main purpose of my trip was to see the mangroves, and it felt like I had come to a foreign land, making me question if I was really in Japan. The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful. I saw many types of mangroves that I had never seen before, along with numerous large herons and a swarm of soldier crabs. The cruise captain provided detailed explanations, which were very interesting.
Next, we participated in an event where we crossed to Yufu by water buffalo. The water buffalo pulling the cart, which along with the passengers weighed a total of 2 tons, was an impressive sight. Towards the end, the person leading the water buffalo sang traditional Okinawan music on the sanshin. The lunch provided along the way was made with plenty of Okinawan ingredients.
After that, we went to a beach on Taketomi Island where you can find star sand. The beach had high transparency, and I was able to see and hold the star sand. There were also cute little hermit crabs everywhere on the beach. Later, we participated in an event where we toured the historic town of Taketomi Island by water buffalo. The young lady guiding the water buffalo introduced various aspects of the traditional town, and she sang traditional Okinawan music on the sanshin, which was truly soothing.
This was my first trip to Ishigaki Island, and I’m really glad I participated in these activities. I highly recommend this tour!
この度は当方と同行者の二人でこちらのアクティビティに参加させて頂きました。
まずは、フェリーにて石垣島から西表島まで行きました。フェリーも乗船前は結構揺れるのかと心配しましたがたまに少し揺れる程度でむしろ冒険心を掻き立てられて楽しい乗船でした。
西表島に到着をしたらクルーズ船にてマングローブ遊船を行いました。今回の当方の旅行のメインはマングローブを見にいくことでしたが想像以上に異国の地に来たような感覚で本当にここは日本なのか?と感じる程の絶景で美しいものでした。見たことのないような多数の種類のマングローブに、大きなサギが多数おり、軍隊ガニの群れなどを見ることができました。クルーズの運転手さんも細かな説明をして頂き大変興味深いものでした。
次は、由布まで水牛で渡るというイベントでした。牛車と客の合計が2トンということでそれを引っ張り海を渡る水牛の姿は圧巻でした。最後の方は水牛を先導する方が三線で沖縄の伝統的な音楽を歌ってくれました。途中提供された昼食は沖縄の食材をふんだんに使ったものとなっておりました。
次は竹富島にて星の砂が取れるビーチまで行きました。ビーチは透明度が高く本当に星の砂があり手にとって見ることができました。ビーチの至るところに可愛い小さなヤドカリも見ることができました。その後は、歴史的な竹富島の町を水牛で周るイベントに参加しました。伝統的な町並みを水牛を引くお姉さんが色々と紹介をしてくれ途中からは三線で沖縄の伝統的な音楽を歌ってくれて本当に癒されるものでした。
今回初めての石垣島旅行でしたがここのアクティビティに参加して本当によかったと思いました。是非おすすめのできるツアーです!

I went on a 2-night, 3-day tour with a college friend and their daughter and son-in-law. We stayed at our usual spot, the Fusaki Resort Hotel, which I've been to for the tenth time now. Every time I come here, the atmosphere inside the hotel makes me feel like I'm in a tropical paradise. The next day, we took a ferry from Euglena to Ohara on Iriomote Island, then rode a water buffalo cart to Yufu Island, where we strolled through the botanical garden, the talking garden, and the bougainvillea garden. After that, we enjoyed a mangrove tour on a cruise ship on the Nakamagawa River, and I was impressed by the guide's detailed explanation of the mangrove ecosystem. In February of this year, I had a canoe experience on Nakamagawa, but the cruise ship was definitely better since it could go further upstream. On the way back, we went directly to Ohara Port, toured Taketomi Island, and then returned to Ishigaki Port. It was a fulfilling tour. Next time, I plan to come back next year for diving and fishing.
大学時代の友人と友人の長女夫妻と2泊3日のツアーでした。宿泊は常宿のフサキリゾートホテルで、このホテルも10回目になりますが、いつ来ても館内の雰囲気は南国気分になりますね。翌日は、ユーグレナから西表島大原に渡り由布島水牛車に揺られて由布島に渡り植物園、喋園、ブーゲンビリア園を散策してから仲間川で、クルーズ船でマングローブ観光したが、ガイドさんの説明がマングローブの生態系について非常に詳細で感心した。今年の2月は仲間川でカヌー体験しましたが、やはりクルーズ船の方が上流まで行けて良かったですね帰りは直接大原港に着いて竹富島観光してから石垣港に戻りましたが、充実したツアーでした。次回は来年にダイビングと釣りで来ます。

We departed from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island on the 8:10 Dream Tourism boat.
After arriving at Iriomote Island, we took a bus to the entrance of Yubu Island. The bus ride was engaging, so we didn't get bored.
From 9:30, we took a water buffalo cart for about 15 minutes, leisurely making our way to Yubu Island. The water buffalo was strong and had a gentle demeanor. Listening to the relaxed talk from either an older man or a young man while being carried along was truly a precious experience. On the water buffalo cart I rode, they played the sanshin and sang both ways, which added to the atmosphere. I think whether or not you get sanshin performances on other carts might depend on luck.
After arriving at Yubu Island, we had about 100 minutes for free exploration, including lunch. If you have no issues with your legs, you can see and enjoy plenty in this time.
You can also take commemorative photos with the water buffalo. Each group gets two photos taken, with one card-sized photo for free, while larger sizes cost 1,500 yen for one and 2,500 yen for two. If you purchase, you can also download the data, which feels quite savvy. I ended up buying both photos. (laughs) They are wonderful memories.
After 12:00, we went on the Nakama River Mangrove Cruise. We enjoyed the cruise for just under an hour while listening to explanations about the mangrove trees and the birds that appeared.
If you have members who can do canoeing or SUP, those tours provide a more intense experience of the mangroves. However, for older individuals or those with children, I felt that this cruise was the best option after experiencing both.
Around 14:20, we returned to Ishigaki Island, allowing for further plans afterward. I thought it was a compact yet thoroughly enjoyable tour.
8:10のドリーム観光さんの船で石垣島から西表島に向かって出発しました。
西表島についてからバスで由布島入り口までいきます。
バス車内でもお話が聞けるので退屈しません。
9:30から15分ほどかけて水牛車にのって、
ゆったりと由布島まで行きました。
力持ちで穏やかそうな性格の水牛さん。
おじぃもしくはお兄さんのゆるーいトークを聞きながら、のっしのっしと運んでくれる様は
本当に貴重な体験でした。
私が乗った水牛車では、往復どちらも三線を弾きながら歌ってくださり、雰囲気に浸れて良かったです。三線演奏がなさそうな他の水牛車もあったのでこれは運次第かな、と思います。
由布島到着後は約100分ほど、昼食含めて自由散策です。足腰に不安がなければ、十分この時間で見て楽しめます。
水牛さんとの記念撮影もできます。
1グループにつき2枚撮影してくださり、
カードサイズは1枚無料でいただけて、
大きいサイズは1枚1500円、2枚なら2500円で購入方式。購入するとデータでもDLできるという…商売上手な感じです。
2枚とも買わせていただきました。笑
とても良い思い出の写真です。
12時過ぎに仲間川マングローブクルーズへ。
1時間弱かけて、マングローブの木々や、現れた鳥たちの解説を聞きながらクルーズを楽しみました。
もしカヌーやSUPなどができるメンバーなら、
そっちのツアーのほうがマングローブはより迫力を体感できますが、高齢の方やお子さんがいる場合は、こちらのクルーズがベストだと、両方体験して感じました。
14:20頃には石垣島に帰ってこられて、その後もなにか他の計画を立てられるので、
コンパクトにまとまりつつ、十分楽しめる良いツアーだな、と思いました。

This was my third time in Ishigaki Island, but since I had only used the ferry terminal and hadn't visited any tourist spots, I decided to take the regular sightseeing bus for an efficient tour.
The driver and the guide were fantastic! The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I learned a lot of interesting stories that I would have missed if I were sightseeing on my own, like the story of Minsaa weaving and the sanshin and songs.
Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, but Kabira Bay was beautiful, and the view from Tamatorizaki Observatory, which is quite far and difficult to access, was also stunning. I wasn't very interested in the Yaeyama Palm Forest, but once I saw it, I thought it was really great.
Unfortunately, I had to get off at the airport at the end, so I hope to stay on until the end next time. By the way, lunch was just average.
石垣島は3度目だったけど、離島ターミナルを利用するばかりで観光名所は回ってなかったので効率よく回れる定期観光バスを利用しました
運転手さんとガイドさんがめっちゃ良かったです!ガイドさんの説明がわかりやすくて、個人で観光しても知らないまま終わってしまいそうなお話を沢山聞けました ミンサー織りのお話とか三線と歌も良かったです
生憎の曇り空でしたが、川平湾綺麗だったし遠くてなかなか行きづらい玉取崎展望台からの景色も綺麗でした ヤエヤマヤシ原生林もあまり興味なかったのに、見たらめっちゃ良かったです
最後残念ながら空港で降りてしまったので、次回は最後まで乗りたいなぁと思います。ちなみにランチは普通でした

I took a high-speed jet to Iriomote Island early in the morning, enjoying the beautiful sea and views of Taketomi Island and Kuro Island for about an hour until I arrived at Ohara Port. After that, I went on a mangrove cruise to see the world's largest mangroves, and the captain's explanations were excellent, making it feel like a real jungle cruise! After a bumpy bus ride, we arrived at the water buffalo cart station, and the leisurely time swaying in the water buffalo cart while listening to the old man's sanshin truly felt like Okinawa time.

For our 10th wedding anniversary, we participated in a tour in Ishigaki Island to create lasting memories. Fortunately, it didn't rain, but the sky was always cloudy during the tour. The weather in Ishigaki Island is quite unpredictable. Although the stunning scenery was somewhat diminished, we still enjoyed half a day of fun.
The transitions from bus to boat and the explanations from all the guides were so skillful that the travel time was enjoyable and never boring. We learned about the land of Yaeyama, the current state of the islands, and the ecology of the mangroves, which helped us understand the history of the island and appreciate the beauty of observing it with knowledge.
Honestly, I didn't have high expectations for the meals, but there were many local dishes unique to the island, all of which were easy to eat and delicious, so I finished everything.
As my friends from Ishigaki Island said, it was just right to have cloudy weather since direct sunlight can be exhausting, and I was able to fully enjoy sightseeing in Ishigaki Island, making it a wonderful day.
結婚10周年に石垣島へ、記念に残るようにツアーに参加させて頂きました。なんとか雨は降らなかったですが、ツアー中は常に曇り空。石垣島の天気はなかなか読めないですね。素晴らしい景色は半減でしたが、それでも半日楽しめました。
バスから船、水上と全てのガイドの方の説明が巧みて、飽きることなく楽しい移動時間になりました。八重山という土地、島の現状、をはじめ、マングローブの生態や植物からも島の歴史を知ることができ、理解して観ることの素晴らしさを感じました。
食事も正直期待していなかったですが、島ならではの品が多く、全て食べやすい味で完食させて頂きました。
石垣島の友達からも直射日光で体力奪われるから曇りくらいが丁度いいと言われた通り、戻ってからも石垣島観光を満喫することとが出来て素晴らしい1日を過ごすことが出来ました。

I participated in this tour to experience the water buffalo cart. Initially, I planned to join the tour that ended at 5:30 PM, but due to my next schedule, I opted for this tour that finishes at 2:30 PM. I was very satisfied with the experience of Iriomote Island and Yufu Island. Although I was concerned about group activities since it was a tour, there was also free time, and I was able to enjoy the guide's explanations at a comfortable distance, making it a fulfilling experience. For lunch, I had a makunouchi bento, which brought back nostalgic feelings, as if I were on a school trip.
水牛車目当てでこのツアーに参加しました。はじめ17時半までのツアーに参加しようとしましたが、次の予定の関係上14時半に終わるこちらのツアーを申し込みました。西表島と由布島を堪能できて満足度が高かったです。ツアーなのて゛団体行動が懸念点でしたが、自由時間もありながら程よい距離感でガイドさんからの説明を受けながら回れて充実していました。お昼ご飯は幕の内弁当を食べましたが、修学旅行に来たかのような雰囲気で懐かしい気持ちになりました。

Kawahirawan Beach has a pleasant breeze blowing over the emerald sea, creating a heavenly feeling! The white sand and seashells match the color of the ocean, creating a romantic mood... right? The glass-bottom boat I rode for the first time was also great, as I could see corals and colorful schools of fish right below me.
川平湾ビーチはエメラルドの海に風が心地よく吹き天国の気分だ!!
白い砂と貝殻が海の色にマッチ、ロマンチックなムード・・・・に?
初めて乗ったグラスボートも真下にサンゴと色とりどりの魚群が見れとても良かったです。

I was able to visit the famous spots in just one day, and it turned out to be a fulfilling day! The tour guide's thoughtfulness warmed my heart! I traveled alone, but I'm glad I used this service.
1日で名所を回れ、充実した1日になりました!添乗員さんのお気遣いに心が温かくなりました!1人旅だったのですが利用してよかったです。

The weather was wonderful, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery, which was great. The guide explained everything clearly and took excellent photos of us as souvenirs.
天候に恵まれ素晴らしい景色を眺めることができ大変良かったです ガイドの方はわかりやすく説明し、私たちの記念写真もとても上手に撮ってくださいました

I was able to efficiently visit three islands and experience the unique offerings of each one. Especially when crossing to Yufu Island by water buffalo cart, the female guide played the sanshin and sang while explaining, which was a lot of fun.
三つの島を効率的に回り、各島ならでは体験ができた
特に水牛車で由布島へ渡る際はガイドの女性が三線を弾き、歌いながら説明してくれて楽しかったです

My first time in Ishigaki Island. Since the meeting was early, I hurried through the hotel breakfast and headed to the island terminal.
The tour was very well organized. Although there was no tour guide, there were local staff at each destination who provided accurate guidance.
On Yubu Island and Taketomi Island, we had a commemorative photo taken with the water buffalo by a photographer. They give you a small photo for free, but many people, including us, ended up buying the larger photo for 1500 yen.
Fortunately, the weather during the tour was great, and the waves were calm, so I didn't get seasick on the ferry. Even though it was October, the temperature exceeded 30 degrees, and when riding the bus or ferry, the air conditioning made it quite cold, so I recommend preparing for the chill.
The bento box was tastier than I had imagined. The water was also delicious.
If you want to bring back star sand, it might be a good idea to bring a small zippered bag.
We arrived at the island terminal after 4 PM, so we took the free shuttle bus to San-Ei for shopping.
はじめての石垣島。集合が早いのでホテルの朝食もあわてながらすませて離島ターミナルへ。
ツアーは、とてもよくオーガナイズされていて、添乗員さんはいないものの、次の目的地に行くと現地係員がいて、的確に案内していただけました。
由布島と竹富島では、カメラマンさんによる水牛さんとの記念撮影も。名刺大の写真は無料でくれるのですが、みなさん、1500円の大きく映った写真も買われていました(我が家もついつい)
幸いツアー中はお天気にも恵まれ、波もおだやかでフェリーにも酔わず。10月なのに30度超えの日で、バスやフェリーに乗ると冷房で一気に寒くなるので、寒さ対策も必要かと。
お重に入ったお弁当は、想像していたよりおいしかったです。お水もおいしかった。
星の砂を持ち帰りたい人は、ファスナーつき小袋をもってくるといいかも。
16時過ぎに離島ターミナルに到着したので、無料送迎バスでサンエイにお買い物に行きました。

It was my first time seeing mangroves and riding a water buffalo cart. What was disappointing was that the heavy rain prevented us from exploring all of Yui Island. I can't help but think that the scenery would have been different on a sunny day, which is indeed a bit of a letdown. The idol water buffalo, Louis, was so cute!
マングローブも水牛車も初めてでした。
残念だったのは雨がひどくて由衣島を全部回れなかったことです。天気の良い日はまた違う景色だったかなと思うとやはり残念だったなと。
アイドル水牛のルイくん、可愛かった〜

We used this service for our honeymoon trip. I had never visited Iriomote Island before, and I was also eager to go to Taketomi Island again, so this plan was perfect for us. The hotel was close to the island terminal, so we walked there, enjoyed a Maria Shake, and gathered for the trip. The boat ride was comfortable with no significant swaying, and we quickly arrived at Iriomote Island.
First, we went on a mangrove cruise. The scenery was unlike anything I had seen on the main islands, and I could feel the subtropical climate and vegetation. We learned about various types of mangroves and had the rare opportunity to see unusual bird species up close, making it a valuable experience.
From there, we took a bus to Yubu Island. I had always wanted to ride a water buffalo through the shallow waters, and my dream finally came true. Although it was a bit rainy, the beautiful scenery and relaxed atmosphere allowed us to forget the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy ourselves. Lunch was included, which made the plan very convenient.
Finally, we headed to Taketomi Island. We first toured the island by bus and even found star sand ourselves. We also rode a water buffalo cart here, but it had a different atmosphere compared to Yubu Island. We leisurely enjoyed the path surrounded by stone walls. With some free time, we took a break at a café near Nagomi Tower before heading back.
We arrived at the Ishigaki Island terminal at 16:30. It didn’t affect our evening plans, and we were able to fully enjoy the islands from the morning. Next time I visit Ishigaki Island, I would like to explore other nearby islands, so I plan to use this service again.
新婚旅行で利用させていただきました。
西表島は訪れたことがなく、また竹富島も久々に行きたいと思っていたので、打ってつけのプランでした。
ホテルが離島ターミナルに近かったので、徒歩で向かい、マリヤシェイクを飲んで、集合。
船は大きな揺れはなく、快適であっという間に西表島に到着しました。
まずは、マングローブクルーズに。本州では見ることのない景色が広がり、亜熱帯の気候、植生を肌で感じました。複数のマングローブの種類の説明や珍しい鳥類を間近に見ることができ、貴重な体験となりました。
そこからはバスに乗り、由布島へ向かいます。水牛に乗って浅瀬を進む映像に魅せられ、とても行きたかったので、ようやく念願が叶います。少し雨模様でしたが、美しい景色、のんびりした時間が流れ、都会の喧騒を忘れて楽しむことができました。お昼ご飯もついており、自ら準備する必要もなく、とても使いやすいプランだと思います。
最後に竹富島へ。まずは島内をバスで観光しました、星の砂を自分で見つけることもできました。またこちらでも水牛車に乗りますが、由布島とは違った雰囲気があります。石垣に囲まれた道を進み、ゆったりと堪能しました。少し空き時間があったので、なごみの塔近くのカフェでしばし休憩し、帰途に立ちます。
石垣島離島ターミナルへは、16:30に到着。夜の予定に影響することもなく、朝から目一杯離島を満喫できました。
次に石垣島に来た際は他の離島に行きたいので、また利用させていただこうと思います。

The guide was cheerful, and it was great to efficiently visit the highlights. The glass boat can be affected by the tides, and the sea may be murky at times. During my visit, the tide was low, so it was murky. However, I was able to see a sea turtle.
ガイドさんも明るく、見どころを効率よくまわれてよかった。グラスボートは潮の満ち引きにより海が濁っている場合もあり。私の時も潮が引いていたため、濁っているとのこと。しかし、うみがめが見れました。
