All Reviews for Okinawa Outdoor Activities

The first half was a thrilling tour where we moved forward in the dark with our lights on. After being guided through various wonderful local creatures like giant coconut crabs, sea snakes, crabs, and frogs, we were able to see a stunning starry sky and the Milky Way in the second half. I was moved to have photos taken with the starry sky as a backdrop. I also appreciated the guide's spirit of service. It was absolutely fantastic. If I come to Miyako Island again, I plan to use this service once more. Thank you very much.

前半は暗闇の中でライトを照らしてドキドキしながら進むツアーでした。巨大ヤシガニや海蛇、カニ、カエルなどのさまざまな素敵な現地の生物を案内していただいたあと、後半は満点の最高の星空や天の川を見ることができました。星空をバックの写真も撮ってもらえて感動しました。ガイドさんのサービス精神もありがたかったです。めちゃくちゃ良かったです。宮古島に来ることがあれば、また利用するつもりです。ありがとうございました。

I felt that the service was a bit rough or careless, but the photos were taken very beautifully. Thank you.

ちょっと対応がラフというか、雑なところは感じましたが、写真はとても綺麗に撮っていただけました。
ありがとうございました。

This trip was planned around my child's wish to see a coconut crab, so we were thrilled to see the coveted coconut crab in person! The kids were super excited! We were lucky to encounter a large coconut crab as well, which made us very happy!

Walking through the dark forest felt like an adventure, and it was fun. Although some parts of the path were slippery and there were protruding rocks, the guides provided encouragement and matched our pace, allowing us to enjoy without any anxiety or fear.

The starry sky was incredibly beautiful and soothing. The explanations about the constellations were very educational. On the way back, we enjoyed quizzes about Ishigaki Island and even some spooky stories, making the tour fun from start to finish.

The guide's personality and storytelling were fantastic! This was the most enjoyable tour I've ever participated in. I will definitely join again when I come back to Ishigaki Island. Thank you!

今回の旅行は、子どもの「ヤシガニが見たい！」で企画した石垣島旅行でしたので、動画の中で見た憧れのヤシガニを生で見ることができ、子どもたちは大興奮でした！運良く、大きなサイズのヤシガニにも出会えて嬉しかったです！
真っ暗な森を歩いて行くのも、探検をしているようで楽しかったです。途中足場が滑りやすかったり、岩がせり出ている道もありましたが、細かな声掛けやゆっくりとペースを合わせていただき、不安や恐怖心もなく楽しむ事ができました(^^)
星空も最高にキレイで癒されました。星座の説明もしていただき大変勉強になりました☆
帰り路の車内でも、石垣島クイズやちょっと怖いホラー話も聞かせていただき、最初から最後までずっと楽しいツアーでした。
ガイドさんの人柄やトークも最高でした♪今まで参加したツアーの中で1番楽しかったです。
また石垣島に来た際は参加必須です( ◠‿◠ )
ありがとうございました！

We participated as a family. My wife and children were very satisfied, saying they had never seen so many stars before. Next time, I definitely want to join in a different season!

家族で参加しました。妻、子供ともどもこんなに沢山の星を見たことがないと大変満足しました。今度は是非季節を変え参加したいと思います!

The tour guide was knowledgeable about the island's unique wildlife, and we were able to see frogs, the largest spider in Japan, a natural monument shell, a bagworm, and the coconut crab we were hoping to see. It was a very enjoyable night tour for animal lovers! Thank you for the valuable experience.

ツアーのガイドさんが、島固有の生物に詳しく、カエルや日本最大の蜘蛛、天然記念物の巻貝、ミノムシ、目的だったヤシガニにも会えて、生き物好きには、とても楽しい夜のツアーとなりました！
貴重な体験ありがとうございます

I heard that the stars in Miyako Island are beautiful, so I was looking for a place that could take photos of the night sky and found this one! They were very kind to provide details during the preliminary reservation! When I arrived on the day, the night sky was unlike anything I had ever seen, and it was so beautiful!!! The person in charge came and took photos with the stars, and they also taught me about the stars and chatted with me in a friendly manner, which made me very happy! The data arrived two days later, and I really appreciated the quick response! The stars were captured beautifully, and I am very satisfied! I was so happy to see the Milky Way for the first time!!

宮古島の星が綺麗ときき、星空の写真を撮ってくれるところを探していてこちらをみつけました！
仮予約の時に詳細を教えてくれてとても親切でした！
当日現地に行くともう見たことがないくらいの星空で、とても綺麗でした！！！
そして担当の方が来てくれて、星空と一緒にお写真を撮って頂きました！
星のことも教えてくれて気さくにお話してくれてとても嬉しかったです！
データが２日後に届いてとても迅速な対応をありがとうございました！
めちゃくちゃ星が綺麗に映っていてとても満足です！天の川初めて見れて嬉しかったです！！

I was worried because it was cloudy, but the stars were beautifully visible. The photographer provided great background music and gave precise instructions, which made for a good shoot.

曇りだったので大丈夫かと心配でしたが、星が綺麗に見えてました。
撮影担当者もよいBGMを流しながら的確に指示してくれたのでいい撮影ができました。

I went on a commemorative trip with my friends.
On the first day, the weather was bad, so we postponed it to the next day, and the weather was nice then, with a beautiful Milky Way.
I quickly showed the photos to the kids who were curious about them, and I even learned some tips on how to take beautiful pictures of the starry sky with my own phone.
Thank you very much.

友達との記念旅行で撮影に行きました。
1日目は天候が悪く次の日にずらしてもらい次の日は天気も良く天の川が綺麗でした。
撮れた写真が気になる子供達にすぐ見せて頂いたり、自分の携帯で星空を綺麗に撮るコツまで教えて頂きました。
ありがとうございました。

I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to see many stars in the city area. It was dark and a little scary on the way there, but once I arrived, the staff member was friendly and funny. The forecast said it would be rainy and cloudy, but the weather in Miyako Island changes quickly, and we were able to see a perfect starry sky! It was truly beautiful and moving, and it became a wonderful memory. I was really glad I captured so many stars with my own eyes and took photos! I wish I had thought more about the poses I wanted to take, and I think it would be nice to wear cute clothes and have a nice hairstyle for the occasion!

市街の辺ではあんまり星がなくて本当に見えるのかなぁと少し不安でした。笑
行くまでも暗くて少し怖かったですが、ついてみたら担当のお兄さんが親しみやすく、面白い人で
予報では雨から曇りだったらしいのですが、宮古島の天気はコロコロ変わりやすく、晴れて100点満点の星空が見られました！本当にすごい綺麗で感動しましたし、いい思い出になりました♡肉眼でもあんなにたくさん見れて本当に写真に残して正解です！
撮りたいポーズをもっと考えていたらよかったなと思ったのと、髪型も服も可愛い服でいくのがいいと思いました！

The children were delighted to encounter creatures and a large coconut crab. The parents were moved by the perfect starry sky.

Due to other tours being present and the limited time, there were only a few places where we could leisurely search for creatures, which seemed a bit unsatisfying for the children.

Also, since it can get quite sweaty, it's better to prepare plenty of water for peace of mind.

There was some trash washed up from neighboring countries, which left us with mixed feelings. I thought it would be nice to have a tour that involves picking that up as well.

The guide was friendly and cheerful with the children, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. Thank you!

子供は生き物探しと大きなヤシガニと数匹会えたことに喜んでいました。親は満点の星空に感動。
前後に他のツアーがいたり、時間もあるので、ゆっくり生き物を探せる場所は限られていました、そこが子供は少し物足りなかったようです。
あと汗だくになるので水分は多めに準備していったほうが安心です。
隣の国から流れ着いたゴミもところどころあり、複雑な気持ちに。それを拾いながらのツアーなんかもあるといいな、と思いました。
ガイドさんは子供達にも気さくで明るく接してくださり、安心して楽しめました◎
ありがとうございました！

We participated as a family of four. The tour guides introduced us to many creatures, showed us how to catch a coconut crab climbing on a rock, and helped us find pandanus fruit. During the bus ride there, they also shared stories about Ishigaki Island, making the travel time enjoyable. They provided rental boots and lights, which kept our shoes clean, so that was great. Thank you very much. We would love to participate again.

家族4人で参加しました。
ツアーはガイドのお二人がたくさん生き物を紹介してくれたら、ヤシガニを岩に登って取って見せてくれたら、アダンの実も探して見せてくれました。
また行きのバスの中でも、石垣島のお話をしてくれて移動時間も楽しく過ごせました。
長靴とライトの貸し出しがあり、靴も汚れず良かったです。
ありがとうございました。またぜひ参加させていただきます。

I was able to see the most amazing starry sky and take some wonderful photos, and I am very satisfied! If I come back to Miyako Island, I would like to request the starry sky tour here again!

最高に素敵な星空を見れて、とっても素敵な写真も撮っていただけて、大満足です！
また宮古島に来たらこちらで星空ツアーお願いしたいです！

I was informed in advance that while there would be a starry sky, depending on the season and time, there might be moonlight, so we would focus on shooting with the moonlight. On the day of the shoot, I was worried because it was cloudy, but the stars appeared just in time for the shooting, which was a relief. The actual shooting took about 30 minutes. I was asked if I had thought about the poses I wanted, but I hadn’t thought of anything... However, the photographer gave clear and prompt instructions on poses and positioning, allowing the shoot to proceed smoothly.

星空とありますが季節や時間によっては月明かりがあるので、月明かりを中心に撮影を進めます、と事前に連絡をいただいていました。当日は曇り空のため不安でしたが、撮影の時間には星空があらわれ一安心。撮影自体は３０分程度、とりたいポーズを考えてきましたか、と聞かれましたが、何も考えておらず・・・。しかし、カメラマンさんがポーズや位置どりなどの指示をテンポよくしてくださりスムーズに撮影を進めてくださいました。

We participated as a family of four with two elementary school students.

Initially, we were looking for a stargazing tour, but this was a jungle night tour plus stargazing, so we booked it right away.

As we ventured deeper into the jungle, we encountered various creatures. Among them, discovering the rare coconut crab was definitely thanks to this tour.

The beautiful starry sky was breathtaking. Walking along the sandy beach, I also became engrossed in collecting beautiful seashells.

The guide was so knowledgeable about the area that I felt completely at ease participating.

Thanks to our friendly guide, we also became friends with the other family who joined us, and we had a wonderfully enjoyable two hours together.

小学生2人を連れて家族4人で参加しました。

当初、星空ツアーを探していましたが、こちらはジャンングルナイトツアー➕星空だったので、すぐに予約しました。

想像以上のジャングルを進むと、様々な生き物に出会えました。中でも、珍しいヤシガニを発見したのはこのツアーで行ったからこそ、と思います。

生涯一綺麗な星空には圧巻でした。砂浜を歩くと、綺麗な貝殻集めにも夢中になりました。

ガイドのお兄さんは、プライベートで現地を訪れる位現地情報を網羅していて、安心して参加者できました。

人懐こいガイドさんのおかげか、一緒に参加したご家族とも仲良くなり、2時間たっぷり、とても楽しく過ごすことができました。

It was a time for shooting when the brightness of the moon didn't interfere, allowing us to fully enjoy the best starry sky, and the photos captured the beautiful starry sky perfectly. I was a bit confused due to my lack of experience, but they provided guidance on poses and locations, making the time enjoyable and smooth. Additionally, they played music during the shoot, which was very emotional! Thank you!

月の明るさが邪魔しない時間帯の撮影だったため、最高の星空を満喫でき、写真も満点の星空がとても綺麗に映っていました。
あまり経験がないため戸惑っていましたが、撮影のポーズや場所の指定を出してくれて、スムーズに楽しく時間を過ごせました。
また、撮影中は音楽を流しながらやってくれてとてもエモかったです！！
ありがとうございました！

Perhaps due to the rain during the day, there were some clouds, and I had given up on taking nice photos. However, when the clouds cleared a little, I was able to take photos very efficiently.

お昼の雨のせいもあってか、少し雲がかかっており、きれいな写真は撮れないなと諦めていました。が、少しだけ雲がはけたときにとても効率よく撮ってくれました。

The tour guide, Tsuru-chan, was the best part of the experience. Not only did we see many creatures, but he also provided detailed explanations for each one. It was great that he was kind and attentive to the children as well. We even got to see three coconut crabs! I would definitely like to use this service again.

*I would appreciate it if the time from gathering to the start of the tour could be shortened a bit.*

ツアーガイドのツルちゃんが何よりよかったです。
たくさんの生き物を見つけるだけでなく、それぞれ丁寧に説明してくれました。
子供達にも優しく声がけしてくれたのもよかったです。
ヤシガニも３匹も見れました！
またぜひ利用したいです。
※集合からツアー開始までの時間をもう少し短縮してもらえるとなお嬉しいです。

Since I went to Miyako Island for the first time during summer vacation, I wanted a family photo as a keepsake, so I requested a photoshoot this time. When we were guided to the shooting location, we saw many stars that looked like a planetarium, and the whole family was overjoyed. If the weather is clear, you can see the Milky Way in a sky full of stars. On this day, there wasn't a single cloud, so we could see many stars and the Milky Way clearly. The Milky Way also appeared beautifully in the background of the photos. We received mystical photos, and it turned out to be a wonderful family picture! Thank you!

夏休みに初めての宮古島へ行ったので、記念に家族写真が欲しくて、今回撮影をお願いしました。
撮影場所まで案内されて行くと、プラネタリウムのようなたくさんの星が見えて家族みんな大喜びでした。
晴れていれば満天の星空の中に天の川も見ることが出来ます。この日は雲ひとつなかったので、たくさんの星と天の川がハッキリと見ることが出来ました。写真にも天の川が背景で写りとてもキレイです。
神秘的な写真を撮っていただき、ステキな家族写真になりました！ありがとうございます！

On the third day of our Ishigaki trip, we had an experience with the Iriomote Nature School. When we saw the destination, the Pinaisara Falls, from the starting point, we were a bit surprised, thinking, "Wait, we have to go all the way there?!" But once we started, it turned out to be quite fun.

We were on a private family tour, but we ended up merging with a group tour along the way. By the time we reached the trekking starting point after getting off the canoe, there were canoes everywhere! It seemed like the people who had already arrived were heading towards the falls, so we got ready to start as well.

After a challenging 15 to 20-minute trek, we finally reached the base of the falls. Seeing the breathtaking view of the waterfall made us forget the fatigue from the sweaty walk, and we dove into the pool below. It was incredibly fun!

We then retraced our steps back and took the canoe to return. Our guide, Mr. Iwamoto, was quite natural and knowledgeable, providing detailed explanations about the mangroves along the way, as well as information about the lizards and flowers we encountered during the trek. It was a fantastic tour.

After returning to the office, we were treated to a complimentary drink of shikuwasa juice or blue Hawaii shaved ice. Since it was around lunchtime, we ordered Yaeyama soba, and the clear soup version of Yaeyama soba here was exquisite! I would love to join this tour again if I have the chance.

石垣旅行の３日目に体験☀️
今回、西表自然学校さんにお世話になりました。
スタート地点から目的のピナイサーラの滝を見たときは、えっ？あそこまで行くの！と少しビックリ‼️
でもスタートするとこれが案外面白い(^-^)
私たちは家族だけのツアーでしたが、途中団体ツアーさんとも合流状態となり、カヌーを降りてトレッキングスタート地点ではもうカヌーだらけ！
到着していた人達はすでに滝に向かってるようで私達もいざスタート！
なかなか険しい道のりを進むこと15分か20分いくと滝壺に到着。滝の絶景を目の当たりにすると、汗だくで歩いてきた疲れも忘れ、滝壺にダイブ
これが最高に楽しかった
またきた道のりを戻り、カヌーに乗って戻るというツアーでした。
担当してくださったイワモトさんも天然そうな人でしたが、とても詳しくガイドをしてくださり、
道中のマングローブの説明、トレッキング途中のトカゲや花などの説明もしっかりしてくださり、とても良いツアーでした。
その後、事務所に戻るとサービスでシークワーサージュースかブルーハワイのかき氷まで頂きました。
ちょっどお昼だったこともあり、こちらではカフェもしておられたので八重山そばを注文しましたが、こちらの透明のスープの八重山そばが絶品‼️
また機会があればツアー参加したいと思います。

I was able to see the coconut crab not just from a distance, but the staff caught one and showed it to us, allowing us to see it up close, more than I had imagined. Although the weather was bad and we couldn't see a starry sky, the staff persevered until the last moment, and we were able to see many stars peeking through the clouds. I'm grateful for that.

ヤシガニは見るだけじゃなく、スタッフさんが捕まえて見せてくれたので、想像以上に近くで見られました。天候が悪く満天の星空は見れませんでしたが、ギリギリまでスタッフさんが粘ってくださり、雲の合間からたくさんの星が見れました。感謝です。

I have visited various islands in Okinawa, but this was my first time on Iriomote Island. This time, I participated with my daughter, and it was an extremely satisfying experience! The staff were efficient and pleasant, and I believe everyone had a very high awareness of safety through their excellent schedule management skills and broad perspective. It was a very reassuring tour that maintained a warm and appropriate distance. I definitely want to rely on you again in the future. Thank you very much!

これまで沖縄のいろいろな離島を訪れましたが西表島は初めてでした。今回は娘と2人で参加しましたが、非常に満足度の高い体験でした！スタッフの方々はテキパキとされていて気持ちよく、皆さんスケジュール管理能力と広い視野による安全確保意識が大変高いと思います。節度ある適度な距離感を保ちつつも温もりのある、とても安心感のあるツアーとなりました。また是非お世話になりたいと思います。ありがとうございました！

We participated as a family of three (with a 9-year-old son) and had a truly wonderful time.

I did the "Night Kayak" ten years ago when I visited Iriomote Island, and I couldn't forget the breathtaking starry sky I saw then. I had always wanted to do it again, and this time, I was overjoyed to be able to share it with my grown son.

We set off before it got dark, and it was a luxurious experience to savor the passage of time as each star appeared one by one.

The guide's explanations about the mangroves and constellations were also great.

We were able to enjoy the darkness and tranquility that you can't experience in the city.

The sounds of owls, the shadows of bats flying right in front of us, and the sparkling light of the bioluminescent plankton were all impressive.

家族3人（子供は9歳男子）で参加し、大変すばらしい時間を過ごせました。

「ナイトカヤック」は10年前に西表島に来たときにして、そのときに見た星空の感動が忘れられず、是非またと思っていましたが、今回は大きくなった息子と一緒にできて感無量です。

暗くなる前に出発し、一つ一つ星が現れてくる時間の経過を味わえる贅沢な時間でした。

ガイドさんのマングローブや星座の解説も良かったです。

都会では味わえない暗闇と静けさを堪能できました。

フクロウの鳴き声や目の前を飛ぶ蝙蝠の影、夜光虫のきらきらした光が印象的でした。

I chose the "Canoeing & Trekking + Snorkeling" indulgent course.

Canoeing is a very effective attraction for the trip and enhances the sense of unreality.

The trekking from there was harder than I imagined, but the excitement when I finally reached the Pinai Sara Falls was overwhelming!

This alone was enough to satisfy me, but we also headed out to the sea to land on Baras Island.

I was super impressed by the coral reefs all around and the incredibly beautiful sea!

During snorkeling, I was surrounded by many fish, and surprisingly... three sea turtles also showed up!

We were blessed with great weather, and I enjoyed it to the fullest, saying "I couldn't ask for more!"

It's also a nice service that the guide provided free photos they took!

「カヌー&トレッキング＋シュノーケリング」の欲張りコースを選びました。

カヌー漕ぎは旅のアトラクションとしてとても有効的で非現実感を増強してくれます。

そこからのトレッキングは想像以上にハードでしたが、ピナイサーラの滝ヘたどり着いた時の感動はひとしおです！

これだけで十分に満足デキますが、さらに海へ出てバラス島上陸。

辺り一面の珊瑚礁と、あまりにキレイ過ぎる海に超感激！

シュノーケリングでは沢山のお魚たちに囲まれ、しかも･･･なんとウミガメさんも登場！
(しかも３匹)

お天気にも恵まれ、"もうこれ以上ナイ！"ってぐらい楽しめました！

ガイドさんが撮影してくれた写真も無料で提供してくれるのも嬉しいサービスですネ♪

We requested a couple's session. Communication was smooth, and we were very grateful for the flexible responses. They played music to enhance the mood and took various poses, and we were very satisfied with the finished photos. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you!

カップルでお願い致しました。連絡もスムーズで、色々と柔軟な対応をして下さり大変ありがたかったです。
音楽もかけてムードを盛り上げていただいたり、様々なポージングを撮っていただいたり、出来上がった写真もとても満足致しました。とても良い想い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

I'm glad that the photo shoot went smoothly after arriving at the meeting place✨️ The stars were also very beautiful.

As soon as the shoot started, they played Okinawan music, which made for a relaxing experience.

They also recommend sightseeing spots and delicious restaurants and izakayas, so I recommend making reservations on the first day of your sightseeing!

集合場所に着いてからスムーズに
写真撮影してくれて良かったです✨️
星もとても綺麗でした

撮影始まると同時に沖縄の曲を流してくれるので
ゆったりと過ごせました

私は観光初日に予約するのがおすすめです！

I originally had a reservation for the 18th, but since there were many clouds and visibility might be poor, I changed it to the 19th. Our guide, Masaru, said, "Today is truly beautiful!" and the experience was very enjoyable. We were able to take wonderful photos with the Milky Way clearly visible! It was so beautiful that I felt like I could cry, and the moment I saw the photos, I couldn't stop being moved. I made the best memories here in Miyako Island! Thank you very much (^ ^) Masaru was also amazing, thank you!!

元々18日に予約してましたが、雲が多いので見えないかもということで、19日に変更していただきました。ガイドのまさるさんが、今日は本当にめっちゃ綺麗！と言ってくださって、アテンドもとても楽しく、天の川がくっきりうつる素敵な写真を撮っていただけました！！
あまりにも綺麗すぎて、涙が出てきそうなぐらいで、撮っていただいた写真を見せてもらった瞬間、感動が止まりませんでした。。
宮古島きて、最高の思い出ができました！
ありがとうございます(^ ^)
まさるさんも最高でした、ありがとうございます！！

It was amazing to have various experiences while enjoying the breathtaking views. The instructor's explanations were humorous and very entertaining. I felt safe and was able to enjoy myself without worry.

絶景を見ながら色々な体験ができ、最高でした。インストラクターの方の解説がユーモアがあってとても面白く楽しめました。安全にも配慮されていて安心して楽しめました。

I was very satisfied to see the beautiful starry sky for the first time in Miyako Island! On the day of the shoot, I was worried that the stars wouldn't be visible due to the clouds, but after waiting a bit as instructed by the photographer, we arrived at the shooting point and the starry sky was amazing, with the Milky Way beautifully visible, which was truly moving.

Thanks to the careful guidance of the photographer, I was able to shoot without feeling nervous, and the photos I received were taken very beautifully. They became pictures I couldn't have captured myself and will be a wonderful memory of Miyako Island. Thank you very much.

初めての宮古島で綺麗な星空がみれて大満足です！撮影当日は曇ってて星が綺麗に見えるか不安でしたが、カメラマンの方の指示で少し待った後撮影ポイントに着くと星空が凄くて天の川も綺麗に見えて感動しました。
丁寧なカメラマンの指示のもと緊張せすに撮影もでき、送って頂いた写真もとても 綺麗に撮れていました。
自分では撮れない写真になり、宮古島の思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

On a calm night at the new moon, I was able to see the Milky Way and listen to stories about the stars along with a live performance of the sanshin. It was truly a wonderful cruise. The sea breeze was pleasant, and the lights of Ishigaki Island viewed from the water were beautiful. As we ventured further out, the pitch-black night sky was stunning, and the number of stars felt abundant. Coming from Kansai, I was also moved to see the North Star at such a low position! I hope to visit again during the time when the Southern Cross is visible.

新月の穏やかな夜の海で、天の川が観られ、星の話や三線の生演奏も聴かせてもらい、本当に素敵なクルーズでした。潮風も心地よく、海から見る石垣島の灯りも美しかったです。沖へ出るほどに漆黒の夜空が観られ、星の数が多く感じられました。関西から来たので、北極星が低い位置にあったのも感動しました！いつか南十字星が観える時期に来たいです。

There wasn't a single cloud in the sky, and without any moonlight, it was my first time seeing the Milky Way with the naked eye like this. The older sister's explanation was easy to understand and was the best!

雲ひとつなく、月明かりもなく、こんなに天の川が肉眼で観れたのははじめてです。お姉さんのお話も解りやすくて最高でした‼️
