I was able to get close to the meeting place, but on the day of the event, I was confused because I couldn't find the location. However, I was able to reach the meeting place safely thanks to the support I received over the phone. I think it would be even better if there was a final confirmation in writing, like an email or something similar.

When I arrived at the site, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, and the starry sky was breathtaking. I was moved to see the Milky Way with my own eyes for the first time.

When it came time to take photos, I hadn't decided on a pose, but they taught me various options, and I was able to take pictures successfully.

I was happy to receive the photos the next day; the quick response was appreciated.

This was my first trip to Miyako Island, and it became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

集合場所の近くまでは行けていたのですが、当日になり場所がわからず戸惑ってしまいました。
電話で対応して下さり、無事に集合場所まで向かうことができました。
メールか何か文字で残るような、最終確認があれば尚良いと思いました。

現地に着くと、雲一つなく、満点の星空が広がっており、天の川を初めて肉眼で見せていただき感動しました。

写真を撮る時には、ポーズを決めていなかったのですが、色々教えて下さり、無事に写真を撮っていただくことができました。

写真は翌日には送っていただき早く対応してもらい嬉しかったです。

初めての宮古島旅行で、とても良い思い出となりました。ありがとうございました。

During my last trip to Miyako Island, I couldn't see many stars due to the brightness of the moon, so this time I came to enjoy the starry sky! I made a last-minute reservation, but I was very grateful for the polite response I received. When I arrived at the meeting place and saw the starry sky, I was truly amazed. It was the first time in my life that I could see the Milky Way with my own eyes, and both my husband and I were deeply moved!!! We were able to capture this emotion in photos, creating the best memories. Even though we hadn't decided on anything, you suggested wonderful ways to take pictures and even played background music, allowing us to enjoy the shoot to the fullest. I am extremely satisfied with the finished photos!!! I will never forget this night! I would definitely love to do this again. Thank you so much!

前回宮古島旅行に来た際は月の明るさで星があまり見えなかったので、今回の旅行では星空を楽しみに訪れました！急遽予約させて頂きましたが、とても丁寧に対応して頂きありがとうございました。集合場所に着き、星空を見た時は本当に驚きました。人生で初めて肉眼で天の川を見ることができ、夫婦共々感動！！！この感動をしっかり写真に納めて頂き、最高の思い出を残す事ができました。何も決めてない私達に素敵な撮り方を提案して頂き、BGMまで流して頂き、最高の気分で撮影ができました。出来上がりの写真を見て大大大満足です！！！この夜の事は一生忘れません！また是非お願いしたいです。本当にありがとうございました！

Photo Quality:
The photos are blurry and out of focus. I can't say they are the work of a professional. (I understand there are other tasks, so I won't go as far as to say they are unprofessional.)

Communication:
The finished photos were delivered via LINE in the evening two days later. It was quick, which was good.

On-site Communication:
I couldn't hear the instructions due to the sound of the waves, and I couldn't communicate with the children.

Conditions on the Day:
Sunny, with a typical sea breeze.

写真の出来：
ブレブレだしピンボケ。写真のプロとは言えない出来。（他の業務もあるんでしょうしプロ失格とまでは言いません。）

連絡等：
出来上がりの写真は翌々日の夕方にLINEで届きました。早くてよかった。

現場でのコミュニケーション：
波の音で指示の声が聞こえない、
子どもとのコミュニケーションは出来ない。

当日のコンディション：
晴れ、風は通常の海風

I was able to easily purchase admission tickets for the Churaumi Aquarium. Since they can be exchanged at Naha Airport, I think it's a good idea for those who have already decided to go to buy them in advance.

美ら海水族館の入館チケットを簡単に購入できました。那覇空港で引き換えなので事前に行く事が決まっている人は購入しておいてもいいと思います。

I was able to experience things that are not easily available, like riding in a light truck and using a special sickle. Additionally, the children were thrilled to see and touch various animals like cows and goats. My mother found it interesting to learn about the reasons for keeping them. We also drank plenty of sugarcane juice, and they filled our empty plastic bottles. Furthermore, we received a large amount of sugarcane as souvenirs! In the end, the kids played together happily, and we spent a wonderfully relaxed time that felt like we were at a relative's house.

軽トラに乗せてもらったり、特別なカマを使ったり、なかなか体験できないことができました♪
そのほかにも牛やヤギなどの動物たちも色々見たり触ったりできて、子どもたちは大喜びでした♪母はどんな理由で飼われているのかが興味深かったです♪サトウキビジュースもたっぷり飲んで、空いたペットボトルがあると詰めてくれました。さらにお土産にとサトウキビを大量にいただきました！最後は子供達同士ではしゃぎ合いながら遊んでて、ここは親戚の家か？と言うぐらいのんびりした時間を過ごせました♪

I brought my own camera, but I requested to have night view photos taken. The photos turned out to be even more wonderful than I expected. The exchange of the shooting data was smooth, and I also received recommendations for great spots in Miyako Island, which was very helpful.

自分でカメラを持ってきていましたが、夜景フォトを撮影してもらいたいと思い依頼しました。
期待以上のとても素敵な写真を撮影していただきました。
撮影データのやり取りもスムーズで、宮古島のおすすめスポットなども教えていただけて参考になりました。

I entered through Parking Lot 7, which is the closest to the aquarium, but I'm feeling exhausted from the heat. The vending machines are almost sold out. It's better to secure some hydration in advance. The indoor exhibits are cool and pleasant. If you think about taking a break at the café, it's advisable to make a reservation beforehand due to the wait time.

水族館から一番近いパーキング7番から入場したが、　暑さのためくたばりそう。
自販機は、ほぼ売り切れ。水分は少しは確保しておいた方がよい。
館内の見学は、涼しいので穏やか。
ちょっと一息、カフェでもと思っても待ち時間があるので、先に予約しておいた方がよい。

The bridge over Kouri Island offers a great view, and it became a wonderful memory. The children, who were interested in shells from the Okinawan sea, enjoyed looking at the shell displays!

古宇利島にかかる橋が見渡せ、とても景色が良く思い出になりました。
沖縄の海で貝に興味を持った子どもたちも、中の貝の展示を見て楽しんでいました！

The serving staff that took care of my table was very experienced with the food and did her best in explaining to me in English and with my limited Japanese (staff was fluent in Japanese and Spanish, but I was not, hehe). Was a very fun and educating on the food, how to eat and also the history of the cuisine. She paid attention to the table and served when she saw that we were finished with some plates. She was an older lady but I felt like she worked like a young lady.

Presentation of the food is done very beautifully, taste is delicious and well seasoned. Interesting tastes and combination of the culture of Okinawa.

The dancers were very elegant and skilled, I enjoyed all of their traditional dance styles and their garments. They were very well dressed and looked very cute up close when we were taking a picture.

Very thankful to the level of service, cleanliness, quality and quantity of food. I thoroughly enjoyed the tastes of Ryuku Cuisine.

Will come again if happen to visit Okinawa again and want to taste the food once more. Might bring more friends, too.

I was told that the best time to capture the beautiful starry sky is at 1 AM, and despite it being late at night, we took photos at that time. Under a breathtakingly beautiful starry sky, the cheerful and kind photographer skillfully captured the moments! They perfectly guided us on poses while also making great use of the props we prepared, ensuring that we got the best photos possible! They also shared many recommended spots, making our stay in Miyako Island truly wonderful. I am really grateful. If you're hesitating, definitely go for it! It will be a lifelong memory!

星空が1番綺麗に撮れる時間が25時と教えていただき、夜遅い時間にも関わらず、その時間に撮影していただきました。息をのむほど綺麗な星空のもと、ポップで優しいカメラマンさんが華麗に撮影してくれました！
こちらが用意した小道具も上手に使いながら、完璧にポーズの指示をくれるので、必ず最高な写真が撮れます！
おすすめのスポットもたくさん教えていただき、宮古島での滞在が素晴らしいものとなりました。本当に感謝しています。
迷っている方はぜひ！一生の思い出になります！

I'm really glad I booked this experience. The photos were so beautiful that my friends and I were moved. I would love to do it again!

この体験を予約して本当によかったです。写真が綺麗すぎて友達と感動しました。またお願いしたいと思います！

I made a reservation on the morning of the day, and I was able to shoot successfully thanks to your prompt response. Since the shoot was scheduled for the timing of the moonset, it started around midnight, but the photographer made it such an enjoyable time that I forgot my sleepiness.

当日朝に予約したのですが、迅速にご対応いただき、無事に撮影することができました。月が沈むタイミングでの撮影とのことで、夜中0時頃から開始でしたが、カメラマンの方が盛り上げてくださり眠気を忘れるほど楽しい時間でした。

I ran down a pitch-black road towards Musunun Beach. I was wondering where I was going, but it was fine as long as I followed the directions from Google Maps. I asked the staff to take all the photos, and it was a very enjoyable shoot. After it was over, they recommended a delicious restaurant. I highly recommend it to everyone.

真っ暗な道をムスヌン浜に向かって走りました。
どこ？と思ってましたが、Googleマップの指示に従い行けばよしでした。
スタッフの方にお願いして全て撮影していただき、とても楽しい撮影でした。
終わった後は、美味しいお店を教えて頂きました。
皆さんにオススメします。

After making the reservation, I received a call from the person in charge, and since the moonlight was too bright to capture the starry sky on the night I booked, we switched to a moon photo tour to photograph the moon. However, on the day of the shoot, we were able to beautifully capture both the stars and the moon, which was truly moving. A shooting star also appeared, making it a really precious experience, and all the members who participated were very impressed. If I have friends going to Miyako Island, I will definitely recommend this! Thank you very much!

予約後ご担当者の方から電話があり、申し込んだ日の夜は月明かりが明るくて星空がうまく撮れないため、お月様を撮影するムーンフォトツアーに切り替えたのですが、撮影当日はお星様もお月様も両方綺麗に撮影して頂き、とっても感動しました。流れ星も現れてホントに貴重な体験が出来、参加したメンバー全員大感動でした。宮古島に行くお友達がいたら、絶対に勧めようと思っています！本当にどうもありがとうございました。

I was a bit anxious because clouds appeared, but they captured the best photo without missing the moment of sunshine!

Seeing the Milky Way was also amazing!

雲が出てきたので、不安でしたが、一瞬の晴れを逃さずに最高の写真を撮影してくれました！

天の川も見れて最高でした！

I visit Okinawa every year, but this was my first time at the Churaumi Aquarium. There was a discount for purchasing tickets in advance. Since I could pick them up at Naha Airport, I was able to enter right away without waiting, which was very smooth. There are many colorful fish to see, but the smaller tanks were crowded, so I could hardly see anything. The large tank with the whale shark was impressive and great. The parking lot requires some walking, so I think an umbrella is necessary!

毎年沖縄へいきますが美ら海水族館は初めてでした。事前にチケットを購入すると割引がありました。また那覇空港で受け取れるので現地では待たずにすぐに入れてとてもスムーズでした。たくさんのカラフルな魚が見れますが小さな水槽は人が多くてほとんど見れませんでした。大きな水槽のシンベイザメが大迫力で良かったです。駐車場は歩くので日傘はいると思います！

It was absolutely amazing.
While we were on our way, it was raining, and I thought it might be ruined, but when we arrived, I was surprised.
The clouds had completely cleared, and a sky full of stars was spread out before us. It was a starry sky that you really can't see in the city!
Also, the photographer Yusuke was wonderful. He gave detailed instructions for poses and took the best photos.
He also taught us a lot about Miyako Island, making it an overall very satisfying tour. I would love to do it again next time! Thank you so much!

とにかく最高でした。
向かってる最中、途中雨が降っていたので、もうダメかなあと思ってたのですが、着いてビックリ
見事に雲もなくなり、満天の星が広がってました。本当に都会では見ることのない星空でした！
また、カメラマンのYUSUKEさんのご対応も素敵でした。ポーズも細かく指示して下さって、最高な写真を撮影いただきました。
宮古島についても沢山教えていただき、総合的に大満足なツアーでした。また次回もお願いしたいくらいです笑
本当にありがとうございました！

I'm really glad I was able to capture the stunning starry sky in Miyako Island! Taking photos of the night sky is quite challenging for amateurs, and the family photo with the starry background became a wonderful memory of our trip to Miyako Island. The "Miyako Island Recommendation List" that I received from Yusuke after the shoot was also very helpful! Thank you!

宮古島の満点の星空の写真が残せて本当に良かったです！
素人では星空の写真は難易度が高すぎますし、星空バックの家族全員での写真は宮古島旅行の良い思い出になりました。撮影後にYUSUKEさんに頂いた「宮古島おススメリスト」もとっても役にたちました！ありがとうございます。

Thank you very much!
It was my first night photo shoot, and I was able to enjoy taking pictures while receiving pose instructions.
I was also given recommendations for shops in Miyako Island, and I visited one the very next day!
I hope to have the opportunity again!

ありがとうございました！
初めてのナイトフォトでしたが、ポーズを指示していただきながら楽しく撮影することができました。
宮古島のおすすめのお店なども教えていただき、早速翌日伺いました！
また機会があればお願いします！

We used this service to commemorate our 10th wedding anniversary trip. The staff kindly helped us pose for photos, and they patiently waited for the clouds over the Milky Way to clear. Their attentive and heartfelt service made the experience wonderful. Of course, the finished photos were lovely and became cherished memories.

I read somewhere that wearing light-colored clothing is recommended, so we wore white, but if you want the people in the photo to be silhouetted against the starry sky, darker clothing might be better.

結婚10周年旅行の記念に利用させていただきました。写真に撮られ慣れない私たちにポーズをつけてくださったり、天の川にかかった雲が抜けるのを待ってくださったりと丁寧で心ある対応をしていただけました。もちろん出来上がったお写真も素敵で良き思い出となりました。
どこかで白っぽい服装がおすすめと見かけたので白い服で挑みましたが、人物をシルエットのようにして星空メインの写真としたい場合は黒っぽい服装の方が良いかもしれません。

I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but all the staff members were friendly and kind, making it a fun experience. They also guided us on photo poses, resulting in the best photos and memories. Thank you very much!

1人参加で不安もありましたが、スタッフさんみなさん気さくで親切な方ばかりで楽しくすごせました。また、写真のポーズも指示してくださって、最高の写真と思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

The main purpose of this trip was to see the Milky Way, and I thought it would be great to take some photos as well, so I searched various sites and came across this one. My impression is simply that I’m glad I asked for it! The staff and the photographer were friendly, and I was able to enjoy the shoot while receiving various pieces of advice. It became a memorable trip.

天の川を観るのが今回の旅行の第一目的で、せっかくなら写真もと思い、色々サイトを探していて目についたのが、こちらでした。
感想はお願いして良かった！の一言です♪
スタッフの方も、カメラマンの方も、感じがよく、色々アドバイスいただきながら、楽しく撮影できました。印象に残る旅行になりました。

I had been wanting to sign up for this for a while but hadn't been able to, so this time I joined the starry sky photo tour to capture the Milky Way! I was nervous, but the friendly conversation eased my anxiety and tension before I knew it! They asked about the poses I wanted and also took some recommended poses for me! The photos I received were far more beautiful than I had imagined, and they became truly wonderful memories! While it's nice to take pictures with my own smartphone or camera, having a professional photographer capture them is simply the best! I fell even more in love with the starry sky and Miyako Island! I highly recommend this! Thank you very much!

以前から申し込んでみたいと思いつつ、なかなか申し込めずにいたのですが、天の川と一緒に撮影していただきたく、今回こちらの初めての星空フォトツアーに…！
緊張していたのですが、明るく話しかけてくださり、気付いたら不安も緊張もなくなっていました！
こちらの撮りたいポーズを聞いてくださったのと、
おすすめのポーズで撮っていただきました！
いただいたお写真は、想像の何倍も綺麗で、本当に素敵な思い出になりました！
自分のスマホやカメラで撮るのも良いですが、
やはりプロの方にカメラで撮っていただけるものは最高に良いです…！
大好きな星空と宮古島がもっともっと大好きになりました！
とってもおすすめです！ありがとうございました！

We participated in our first stargazing photo tour as a couple. The photographer was very friendly, and we had a great time taking pictures. After the shoot, they also provided us with helpful recommendations. It became a wonderful memory of our trip to Miyako Island as a couple in our 50s. Thank you for taking such beautiful photos!

夫婦揃って初めての星空フォトツアーに参加しました。カメラマンさんは、とても気さくな方で楽しく撮影できました。撮影後、お勧め情報も教えていただき参考になりました。
50代夫婦の最高の宮古島旅行記念になりました。
素敵な写真を撮っていただき、ありがとうございました。

I was a bit nervous since it was my first experience, but the photographer was friendly, and I was able to enjoy the shoot. Thank you very much!

初めての体験でちょっとドキドキしていましたが
カメラマンのお兄さんが気さくな方で
楽しく撮影できました
ありがとうございました

On the day of the event, it was a new moon, and it was so dark that I couldn't even see the car parked next to us, but the photographers were bright and lively, making the atmosphere enjoyable, so I was able to relax and have a great time. The music they played also added to the wonderful ambiance. The finished photos and the starry sky were amazing! I ended up with some really great memories captured in those photos. 😊

当日は新月で駐車している隣の車も見えないほど闇でしたがカメラマンの方たちが明るく盛り上げて撮影してくれたので安心して楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました☺️
音楽を流してくれたのも雰囲気良かったです
出来上がった写真も星空も最高でした！
とても良い思い出写真が出来ました☺️

The weather was wonderful, and I encountered a starry sky that was pouring down. It was a very lovely night with background music playing during the shoot. I haven't received the photos yet, but I'm really looking forward to them.

天候に恵まれ、降り注ぐ星空に出逢えました。
撮影中はBGMを流してとっても素敵な夜でした。
まだ、写真は届いていませんが、とっても楽しみです。

I made a reservation here because the photographer is an award-winning one from a photo contest. The service was polite and extremely kind. I truly felt happy to experience the miracle of taking photos with the Milky Way. They played music while taking pictures, and even after the session, they offered advice on sightseeing and dining. When I got lost on my way to the 17 End that they recommended, they kindly helped me. I am really grateful for everything and it has become the best memory. I will cherish the photos by putting them in a photo album.

フォトコンテスト受賞のカメラマンということでこちらを予約させて頂きました。対応も丁寧で、非常に親切でした。天の川との写真が撮れる奇跡を体験して本当に幸せです。音楽をかけながら撮影して下さったり、終わった後も観光や食事のことも相談にのって下さり、教えて頂いた１７エンドに行った時に道に迷ってしまったらご親切に助けて下さいました。本当に何から何までお世話になり最高の思い出になりました。お写真はフォトアルバムにして大切にさせて頂きます。

It was my first time doing starry sky photography, and the photographer was very nice. We were a family of four, but I was really glad that we could also get photos of just the kids and just the couple.

初めての星空フォト撮影、カメラマンさんもとても良い方でした。家族4人でしたが、子供達だけと夫婦だけの写真も撮っていただけて本当によかったです。

The photographer was very kind and friendly, which made it easy for us to relax during the shoot. The photos taken with my son under the perfect starry sky are treasures for a lifetime. Additionally, I was taught techniques for capturing beautiful starry skies with my smartphone, so five stars isn't enough! I highly recommend this tour.

とっても親切で気さくなカメラマンさんで、緊張せずに撮影していただくことができました。
満点の星空の下、息子と一緒に撮った写真は一生の宝物です。
また、スマホで星空を綺麗に撮影するテクニックまで教えていただき、星五つじゃ足りないくらいです！とってもオススメのツアーです。
