Thank you for your hard work in the heat. I didn't realize how difficult it is to produce sugar. I will cherish it from now on. Thank you so much.

暑い中、ありがとうございました。砂糖ができるまでに、こんなに大変だとは思いませんでした。これからは大切にします。感謝感謝です。

I made a reservation online in advance and picked it up at Naha Airport on the day of my arrival in Naha, which was very convenient! I highly recommend it! The tickets I received have a validity period of about six months, so even if my plans change, they won't expire immediately, which I thought was great. I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

事前でネット上で予約し、那覇への到着日に合して那覇空港で受取り、便利でした^_^ おすすめです!
受け取ったチケットの有効期限は、約半年があり、万が一計画が変更になっても、すぐ使えなくなるのではないので、よかったと思いました。また、機会があれば、利用したいです。

I was able to find out the best time to see the first star clearly and capture a perfect photo of the Milky Way! ✩.*˚
The meeting place was a bit uncertain, making me wonder, "Is this really the right spot?" but it's fine to trust Google Maps and go! Haha
I'm really glad I could create wonderful memories in Miyako Island!

1番星が綺麗に見える時間を調べてくださり、天の川までバッチリ写真におさめることができました✩.*˚
集合場所は、え？ここであってる？と不安になるような場所でしたが、Googleマップを信じて行って大丈夫です！笑
宮古島の素敵な思い出を作ることができて本当に良かったです！

Making shisa at a beautiful seaside café. We had a small child with us, but the staff regularly checked in and provided support, and the child was very engaged and enjoyed the creative process. The adults might have actually been even more absorbed in the fun than the kids. In just two hours, we were able to create and paint our shisa, and being able to take them home the same day is something you don’t find often elsewhere. We quickly displayed our family’s shisa at the entrance and are reminiscing about our trip to Okinawa. It became the best memory!

綺麗な海沿いのカフェでのシーサー作り。小さな子ども連れでしたが、店員さんが定期的に声掛け、フォロー頂き、子どももとても楽しんで創作に没頭していました。大人もむしろ子どもよりも夢中になって楽しんでたかも。あっと言う間の２時間で、シーサー作りから色付けまででき、その日のうちに持ち帰れるところは他ではあまり無いのではないでしょうか？家族全員のシーサーを早速玄関に飾って、沖縄旅行の思い出に浸っています。最高の思い出になりました！

I saw such a beautiful starry sky for the first time in my life! The photographer was kind, and we took pictures in a great atmosphere while listening to music. The photos they took were incredibly moving! I want to go take pictures again!

人生で初めてこんな綺麗な星空を見た！カメラマンさん優しくて、音楽を聴きながらいい雰囲気で撮影しました。撮って下さった写真すごく感動！また写真撮りに行きたい！

One of my memories from Miyako Island is participating in a night photo tour. I was moved by the starry sky that can only be seen in Miyako Island. With that beautiful starry sky as a backdrop, I was able to take wonderful photos and enjoy a romantic time. The background music and the sound of the waves were also fantastic! The shooting time flew by because it was so much fun, and thanks to the warm encouragement from the staff, I felt at ease during the shoot. This year, I was able to create another summer memory in Okinawa. Thank you very much!

宮古島での思い出の一つとして、ナイトフォトツアーに参加させていただきました。
まず宮古島でしかみれない星空に感動しました。
その星空をバックに素敵な写真を撮っていただいて、ロマンチックな時間を味わうことができました。
BGMと波音も最高でした！
撮影時間は、楽しくてあっという間でしたが、スタッフの方の温かい声かけもあり、安心して撮影することができました。
今年も沖縄での夏の思い出を一つ増やすことができました。ありがとうございました！

I participated as a memory for my honeymoon. I was able to see the most beautiful starry sky I've ever seen in my life, and the photos turned out really beautifully, so I am very satisfied. It became a very memorable time, perfect for the last day of our honeymoon! The photographer was also very kind and even taught us about recommended spots in Miyako Island, which was very thoughtful! I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

新婚旅行での記念に参加させていただきました。
今まで生きてきた中で1番綺麗な星空がみれて、写真もすごく綺麗に撮ってくださり満足です。
新婚旅行の最終日にふさわしい、とても思い出に残る時間となりました！！
カメラマンさんもすごく優しく、宮古島のオススメの場所まで教えて下さりとても親切でした！
また機会があれば参加したいです。

We were blessed with great weather and were able to see the most beautiful starry sky we've ever experienced. The tour guide who took our photos was friendly, very funny, and made it a lot of fun! Although we weren't used to having our pictures taken, he helped us by suggesting poses, so we were able to get some really amazing photos. We are truly very satisfied!! We definitely want to use this service again when our family grows!

天気にも恵まれて今まででダントツ1番に綺麗な星空をみることができました。
撮影して頂くツアーのお兄さんも気さくで、
すごく面白くて楽しかったです！
写真を撮られ慣れてない私たちですが、
困っていたらポーズの指定もしてくれるので
すごくすごくいい写真を取ることができました。
本当に大満足です！！
また家族が増えた時に絶対に利用したいです！！

I was able to see a night sky like I've never seen before with my own eyes! The photos taken were even better! The Milky Way was beautifully captured. They quickly accommodated each of my children's requests to take photos, and it was a wonderful shooting time accompanied by lovely music. I was also happy to receive a list of recommended shops afterward.

今までに見た事ない星空を肉眼でも見れました！
撮っていただいた写真はそれ以上！！
天の川も綺麗に映ってました。
子供達が1人づつ撮りたいという要望にもすぐに対応してくれて、素敵な音楽と共に素敵な撮影時間でした。
終わった後におすすめのお店リストをもらえたのも嬉しかったです。

I participated with my second-grade and kindergarten children. There is a certain way to make things, but it's also possible to create freely, and the little ones were having fun making and painting as they pleased.

Since parents are there to support, the level of completion might drop (and there’s also the challenge of the clay drying), but it allows you to return to your childhood and get completely absorbed in the activity.

The time limit isn't very strict, so you need to be careful not to get too carried away with the creation and let it affect your next plans. I think it was an enjoyable and memorable experience!

小学2年生と年長の子供達と参加しました。ある程度決まった作り方がありますが自由に作ることも可能で、小さな子供達も思い思いに作って塗ってと楽しんでいました。

親はサポートしながらになるので完成度は落ちるかと思いますが(あと粘土の乾燥との戦いになりますが)それでも童心にかえって夢中になれます。

時間は制限があまり厳しくないので、夢中になり過ぎて作り込んで次の予定に響かないよう注意が必要です。それくらい楽しめる、思い出になる体験だったと思います！

The exchange at the airport was helpful, but there were many similar places, and I ended up making a mistake. It was great that I could go at a good price.

空港での引き換えは助かりましたが、場所が似た所が多く間違えてしまいました。
お得に行けたのはとても良かったです。

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♪

This is my second time, and it was great because I could enjoy it a lot again. The weather was nice, and the breeze felt good, making it a wonderful day. The kids were also happy and had a great time.

二回目になりますが、なんどきてもたくさん楽しめるからよかったです。
気候もよく、風が気持ちよかったし、良い一日になりました。
子供も喜んで楽しかったです。

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。
