Okinawa
The local guide was very clear and provided explanations about the history and flora and fauna of Iriomote Island! I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Iriomote Island! This tour is highly recommended! The Pinaisara Falls were impressive!
現地のガイドさんがわかりやすく、西表島の歴史や動植物の説明を入れながらガイドしてくださいました!また西表島に来たら絶対に参加したいです!とてもオススメのツアーですよ!ピナイサーラの滝!見応え有りでした!
We participated as a group of eight men in their 30s and 40s. It was an experience that allowed us to let loose and enjoy ourselves until the end, truly a return to childhood. It wasn't the typical tourist route; we got to experience both the limestone caves and the mangroves. I never expected to have such a wild experience in Japan! The staff were very attentive and provided excellent support, which made us feel at ease. Thank you very much!!
30-40代男性8人で参加しました。
最後まではしゃいで楽しめる、
童心に帰るとはこの事か、と言う内容でした。
観光化されたお決まりコースではなく、
鍾乳洞もマングローブも、
日本でこんなワイルド体験ができるとは!
でもスタッフさんが丁寧に、
しっかりフォローして下さり安心。
ありがとうございました!!
We decided on this tour for our fifth grader and first-year middle school boy who wanted an active experience. On the day of the tour, we gathered at Uehara Port and heard it could get crowded coming from Ishigaki Island, so we arrived early to depart. We felt relieved to meet the staff waiting for us on-site, but this year there has been a dry rainy season, and the cave's sanitary conditions weren't good, so we quickly changed to canyoning for the afternoon. After moving to the shop, we put our valuables in a waterproof bag we borrowed and received a canoeing lesson before heading to the location. There were tandem options available, but they assured us that our fifth grader could manage alone. While being watched over and given advice, we trekked for 40 minutes, listening to stories about the flora and fauna, and were healed by the negative ions at Pinai Saara Falls. We enjoyed homemade rice balls from our guide for lunch and returned via the same route before heading to canyoning. We experienced jumping in from upstream, and the descent downstream was filled with excitement for the kids on a hot summer day, making for a very active and enjoyable day. It went by in a flash, but we truly had a fun day. I would love to sign up for the same tour again next time. Lastly, I was happy to receive many photos as well. For those looking to spend an active day, even though the cave plan changed, the staff were kind and I highly recommend it. Thank you!
小学5年と中1男子、アクティブな体験したいとこのツアーに決定。当日は上原港に集合ということで石垣島から混雑すると聞いて早め待機で出港。現地で待っていただいてるスタッフの方と合流でき安心したのですが今年は空梅雨で洞窟の衛生環境がよくないらしく急きょお昼から代案のキャニオニングに変更。一度店の方へ移動させていただいてから貴重品のみお借りした防水バックにいれてカヌーのこぎ方レクチャーし現地へ。2人のりもあるそうだけど小学5年でも一人で大丈夫、と見守ってアドバイスいただきながら片道40分、動植物のお話聞きながらトレッキング、ピナイサーラの滝でマイナスイオンに癒されました。ガイドさんの手作りおにぎり、昼食いただき元来たルートで戻り、次はキャニオニングへ。上流から飛び込みも体験しつつ下流までの沢下りは暑い夏日に子供たちもおおはしゃぎでとてもアクティブに心地よくハードに1日満喫できました。あっという間でしたが、本当に楽しい1日過ごせました。今度もまた同じツアーで申し込みたいくらいです。また最後にたくさんの写メもいただけ嬉しかったです。アクティブに1日過ごされたい方洞窟は変更になりましたがスタッフの方も優しくおすすめです。ありがとうございました!
I experienced this with a friend, and the guide provided thorough explanations, making it a truly enjoyable day! We got to do activities like canoeing, waterfall play, and cave exploration—things we had never experienced before! It was really fun. Thank you so much!
友達と二人で体験させていただいたのですが、ガイドの方が丁寧に説明してくださり本当に楽しい1日になりました‼︎
カヌーに滝遊び、洞窟体験と今まで経験したことのない遊びをいっぱいさせていただきました‼︎
本当に楽しかったです♪ありがとうございました♪
I forgot to post this, but it's been a while... We canoed close to the waterfall and then trekked to the waterfall! We played in the water at the waterfall and had rice balls nearby. In the afternoon, we explored three caves! The trekking path was harder than I expected, but the excitement when we reached the waterfall was immense. The caves were natural, each with a different character, and there were some very large stalactites, as well as countless icicle-like formations on the ceiling that sparkled when light was shone on them. It was also fun to hear the guide talk about the mangroves and the flora and fauna of the island. I was very satisfied with the full day of activities. It was a tour that made me want to participate again. (I have the images saved on my computer, but I couldn't upload them successfully.)
Now that I can upload images, I have done so!
投稿を忘れておりだいぶたっておりますが・・・滝の近くまでカヌーで進み、その後、滝までトレッキング!滝で水遊び、周辺でおにぎりを食べました。午後から3つの洞窟を探検しました!トレッキングの道は思っていたよりハードめでしたが、その分、滝に到達したときは感激が大きかったです。洞窟は自然のままの洞窟で、それぞれ表情が違い、鍾乳石は、とても大きいものがあったり、天井に無数のつららがあったり、光を当てると粒子がきらきらしていました。ガイドさんがマングローブなど動植物や島のお話をしてくれたのも楽しかったです。1日盛りだくさんの内容で満足できました。また、参加したいと思えるツアーでした。(画像をパソコンに取り込んでありますがうまくアップロードできなかったです。)

I was moved by my first visit to Iriomote Island.
We rode canoes and aimed for the Pinai Sara Falls on a trekking adventure.
Since the trail is quite challenging, I think the kids (ages 13 and 9) will need two bottles of water each for the August tour.
However, the waterfall was incredibly refreshing, and the homemade lunch was very delicious, making all the fatigue disappear.
The cave exploration in the afternoon was also quite something!
I was amazed at how we could pass through such places, and the world inside the cave was completely devoid of light.
It got pretty muddy, but on the contrary, we had a blast.
(A helmet is a must!)
I actually wanted to give a maximum rating, but there were quite a few fingers in the photos taken by the guide, and it was hard to hear the explanations towards the back, so I rated it ★★★★.
The tour itself was flawless.
The Ishigaki Island lizards were incredibly beautiful! ♥
初めての西表島に感動しました。
カヌーに乗って、トレッキングでピナイサーラの滝を目指します。
なかなかの道なので8月のツアーでは子供たち(13歳・9歳)の飲料水は2本づつ必要かと。
ただ、滝の水はとても気持ち良く、手作りのランチもとてもおいしく、疲れも吹っ飛びます。
午後からの洞窟めぐりもなかなかのモノ!
こんな所通れるの~とか、洞窟の中で光の全くない世界。
結構ドロドロになりますが、逆に思い切り楽しめました。
(ヘルメットは必須です)
本当は評価マックスにしたかったのですが、ガイドさんに撮ってもらった写真に結構指が入っていたのと、説明が後ろの方まで聞き取りにくかったので★★★★でした。
ツアー自体は文句なしです。
石垣島トカゲ、すっごくきれいでした♥
I was simply amazed by the experience of being surrounded by nature while canoeing. The water at the waterfall was a bit cold on May 1st, but I thoroughly enjoyed playing in the water. The caves were more impressive than I expected, and I think this tour is a great deal.
カヌーでは自然に囲まれ初めての体験にただただ感動しました。滝壺では5/1で少し冷たいですが、思いっきり水遊びを楽しめました。洞窟も思った以上に迫力満点で、このツアーはお得だと思います。
