All Reviews for Okinawa Outdoor Activities

First of all, it was absolutely amazing! Around the time we started shooting, clouds began to cover the sky and we couldn't see the stars, but TenTen was very supportive and said they wanted to keep shooting even after the time had passed! Just when I was about to give up, the clouds gradually cleared, and we were able to capture the starry sky! TenTen made the shooting experience so enjoyable that time flew by! It became the best memory of my birthday trip! Thank you so much!!!

まず初めに最高すぎました！
撮影開始くらいに雲がかかり出して星空が見えてなかったのですが、てんてんさんが時間過ぎても撮りたいと言ってくださりとても親身になってくれました！
自分の時間では諦めようかとしてたらだんだんと雲がすぎていき星空で撮影することができました！
てんてんさんの撮影がとても楽しくあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました！
誕生日旅行で最高の思い出になりました！
ありがとうございました！！！

I received a call the day before regarding the meeting time, and the service was very attentive from the pick-up to the tour on the day itself. The tour guide was warm and made it enjoyable to search for living creatures together. They also shared a lot of interesting facts. Iriomote Island is amazing! I was able to encounter many unique species that can only be found on Iriomote Island. During the participation, I felt that the walking pace was a bit fast, perhaps because I was so engrossed in the creatures and plants. It became such a wonderful memory that time flew by. I wished I had more time. I would love to participate again!

前日に集合時間の電話がきて、送迎、当日のツアーまでとても丁寧な対応でした。ツアーのガイドさんも温かみのあるガイドさんで一緒に楽しく生物を探すことができました。豆知識もたくさん教えてくれました。西表島はすごいですね！！西表島ならではの生物にたくさん出会うことができました。参加時、少し歩くペースが早いように感じました。生き物や植物に夢中になっていたからですかね。それくらい時間が早く過ぎる素敵な思い出になりました。もっと時間が欲しかったです。また参加したいです！

It was a fulfilling tour where I could experience the grandeur of the night sky and the breath of nature that you can't enjoy at a planetarium. I've traveled all over Japan, but the stars on Iriomote Island were from another dimension.

プラネタリウムでは味わえない、夜空の壮大さと自然の息吹を感じられる充実したツアーでした。
日本全国回ってますが、西表島の星は異次元でした。

The guide's talk and the tour content were exciting for both adults and children throughout. Although the weather was a bit uncertain regarding the coconut crabs, my son, who loves animals, was on a birthday trip, so we didn't give up. The guide continued to search until the end and was able to show us a coconut crab, for which we are very grateful and moved. Thank you very much!

ガイドさんのトークとツアー内容は、大人も子供も終始わくわくするツアーでした。
また、ヤシガニがいないかな〜な雲行きでしたが、生き物大好きな息子のBD旅ということもあり、諦めず最後まで探してくださり、ヤシガニを見せることができ、感謝と感激でした。ありがとうございました！

I participated in a night tour for the first time. I joined with some international guests, and the instructor was very considerate, ensuring everyone had a good time, which made for a very pleasant experience. Fortunately, I was able to see a coconut crab, making it a truly memorable tour! I especially recommend it to those who enjoy evening walks. ✨

初めてナイトツアーに参加しました。
海外の方と一緒の参加になりましたが、全員が楽しめるようにインストラクターの方が気を遣っており、とても穏やかな時間でした。
運良くヤシガニも見ることができて、本当に思い出に残るツアーになりました！
夜の散歩が好きな方は、特におすすめしたいです✨

I was able to visit Cape Hedo, the northernmost point of Okinawa, which I had always wanted to go to. It was a full-day tour, but I’m glad I participated as it became a wonderful memory. There were tourists from overseas, and sometimes the departure times were delayed, but that too is part of the experience. The seafood lunch featured fresh sashimi as the main dish, and it was delicious. Thank you very much.

沖縄観光で一度は行きたいと思っていた北の端「辺戸岬」に行くことが出来ました。一日がかりのツアーでしたが､参加して良い思い出になりました。海外からの観光客がいて、時々出発時間が遅れたりしましたが、これも思い出です。海鮮ランチは､新鮮なお刺身がメインで美味しく頂きました。ありがとうございました。

The weather was perfect, and I was truly moved by how clearly I could see the Milky Way! This tour was my main goal, and it has undoubtedly become a lifelong memory! I was grateful for how you listened to my requests and suggested various poses. ^ ^

天候にも恵まれ、天の川も鮮明に見えて本当に感動しました！今回、このツアーを一番の目的にしていましたが、間違いなく一生の思い出になりました！
こちらの要望も聞いていただきながら様々なポーズを提案していただき、ありがたかったです^ ^

Romantic stargazing. The starry sky we looked up at together in the quiet forest with my loved one became an unforgettable memory. The sight of the Milky Way spreading above us was so beautiful that words cannot express it, and my heart fluttered every time a shooting star passed by. Coupled with the presence of nature felt in the night forest, we had a truly romantic moment! I definitely want to visit again.

ロマンチックな星空観測　静かな森の中で大切な人と一緒に見上げた満天の星空は忘れられない思い出になりました。天の川が頭上に広がる様子は言葉では表せないほど美しく、流れ星が流れるたびに心がときめきました。夜の森で感じる自然の気配も相まって、とてもロマンチックなひとときを過ごせました！また必ず訪れたいです。

I experienced snorkeling and canyoning at Baras Island. We visited two spots, including Baras Island made of coral fragments and a beautiful sea with coral. I was thrilled to encounter colorful fish and even sharks. During canyoning, I walked through a subtropical forest, climbed cliffs, and enjoyed the thrill of jumping into the river and natural water slides! It was a bit scary, but the fun outweighed it. We took a lot of photos, which were sent to us right away! Finally, we enjoyed a warm shower, making it comfortable. It was a satisfying day where I could fully experience the great outdoors.

バラス島シュノーケリングとキャニオリングを体験しました。
サンゴのかけらでできたバラス島とサンゴが綺麗な海と2スポット周ってもらえました。
色とりどりの魚やサンゴはもちろん、サメにも出会えて大興奮でした。
キャニオリングでは亜熱帯の森を歩き、崖をクライミングして川へ飛び込むスリルや天然のウォータースライダーを満喫しました！
少し怖かったですが、楽しさが勝ちました。
どちらも写真をたくさん撮ってもらえ、すぐに送っていただけました！
最後に温水シャワーも浴びられて快適。
大自然を全身で感じられる大満足の一日でした。

The photographer really helped to create a lively atmosphere, and we got some wonderful photos! We also saw shooting stars, and the night sky was incredibly beautiful!

カメラマンさんが盛り上げてくれてとても素敵な写真が撮れました！
流れ星も見れてとても綺麗な星空でした！

On the reserved day, there were clouds, so I rescheduled for the next day. The conditions were perfect the following day, and I was able to capture an amazing starry sky. It was my first time photographing the stars, and I left the poses up to the photographer, but I had a great time taking pictures. Thank you, Tensei.

予約日には雲がかかっていて、次の日に予約をずらして頂きました。
次の日はコンディションも最高で圧巻されるほどの星空で撮影できました。
初めての星空撮影でポーズなどもおまかせでしたが、楽しく撮ることができました。
てんせいさんありがとうございました。

During this trip to Miyako Island, my long-awaited dream of a stargazing tour came true! Thanks to the photographer, Tenten, I was able to end my journey with the best memories in my heart!

As it was our first time having a proper photo shoot, we were very grateful for the various posing and angle suggestions he provided, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience. His bright and friendly personality made the shoot feel like it flew by, and we had such a fun and fulfilling time as a family!

The beautiful starry sky of Miyako Island, with the Milky Way and the fantastical shapes of the clouds, and the smiles of my family... I was truly happy to capture this moment! I was able to preserve the emotions of my mother and sister, who were visiting Miyako Island for the first time. I plan to revisit these special travel memories many times in my mind by looking back at these photos!

I had an unforgettable and amazing experience.

　今回の宮古島旅行では念願だった星空ツアーの夢が叶いました！カメラマンのてんてんさんのおかげで最高の思い出を胸に、旅を終えることができました！
ちゃんとした写真撮影が初めてだった私たちに、色んなポージングや画角の提案をしてくださり身を任せて臨めたのでとても助かりました。お人柄も明るくて気さくで、撮影があっという間に感じるほどとにかく楽しく充実した時間を家族で過ごすことができました！
天の川と雲の形が幻想的な雰囲気の宮古島の美しい星空、家族の笑顔、、、この瞬間を収めることができて本当に嬉しかった！宮古島が初めてだった、母と姉の感動を残すことができました。この写真を見返すことで特別な旅行の思い出を今後何度も、脳内再生する予定でいます！！
忘れられない、最高な体験をすることができました。

I made a last-minute reservation since I had no plans for the evening, and they kindly accepted me even at the last minute. I saw various creatures, and the guide taught me so many things that I would never have known on my own, which was really fun. It seems we were also lucky enough to see the starry sky, and it was truly beautiful.

夜に予定がなかったため直前に予約しましたが、直前でも快くうけいれてくださりました。
様々な生物を見て自分では絶対にわからないことをガイドのお兄さんがたくさん教えてくださり、とっても楽しかったです。
星空も運よく見れたらしく、本当にきれいでした。

I participated with the goal of seeing coconut crabs, and I was constantly impressed by our guide Yuri's knowledge of biology, hospitality, and English skills. Fortunately, the weather was clear, and we were able to enjoy a perfect starry sky, so he took photos of each group. During the night tour, he provided explanations about various plants and creatures along the way, which was very enjoyable. I couldn't find a coconut crab myself, but another group spotted one, and we were lucky enough to see two! I had a wonderful time, thank you!

ヤシガニ目的で参加しましたが、ガイドのユーリ君の生物の知識とホスピタリティと英語スキルが凄すぎて関心しっぱなしでした。
運良く晴れて満点の星空をのぞめたので、1組ずつ写真を撮ってくれました。
ナイトツアー中は、道中様々な植物や生物の解説をしてくださって、とても楽しかったです︎^_^
ヤシガニは自分で見つけられませんでしたが、他のグループの方が見つけて、運良く2匹も見れました！
とても楽しい時間を過ごせました、ありがとうございました！︎^_^

Since it was the last slot of the day, they took their time and let me shoot until I was satisfied. The price included retouching. Initially, they mentioned it would take three days for the retouching and delivery, but they sent it to me in about two days.

その日の最後の枠だったため、のんびり気が済むまで撮影してくださった。
価格はレタッチ込みの価格。当初は3日でレタッチし送られてくるとのことだったが2日ほどで送ってくださった。

I participated at the end of September. I've been to Miyako Island several times, but I was amazed the moment I arrived to find a place where I could see such a stunning starry sky. Since I can rarely take photos of the night sky myself, it became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

9月末に参加しました。宮古島は何度か来ていますが、こんなに満点の星空が見れる所があるとは知らず現地に着いた瞬間に感動しました。星空の写真は自分ではなかなか撮れないのでとてもいい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

It was my first snorkeling experience at Barasu Island!!

Barasu Island, formed by rising coral, was mystical. The water was crystal clear and shiny without any waves, which was amazing! I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle, which was said to have a 30% chance of being spotted, and it made me feel fantastic. Our guide, Uk-kun, was very kind, and thanks to him and the sea, I was able to enjoy my last day in Ishigaki Island, which made me very happy! Next, I definitely want to participate in the canyoning and mangrove tour with PIPI! Thank you again!

初のバラス島シュノーケルでした！！

珊瑚が盛り上がってできてるバラス島は神秘的でした。
波もなく海の中がすけすけでツルツル光って最高でした！30%の確率で観れるかもと言われてたウミガメも運良くみれて最高の気分でした。ガイドさんのうっくんもとっても優しい方で海とうっくんのおかげで石垣島ラストDAY迎えられてとても嬉しく思います！次はキャニオング・マングローブツアーもPIPIさんで是非ツアー参加したいと思いました！また宜しくお願いします！

I had a photoshoot with Afro. The weather was uncertain due to the approaching typhoon, but we were able to take beautiful photos under the starry sky! During the shoot, there were reactions like "Nice!" and "Great!" and they played music through a speaker, which helped create soft expressions for the subjects. The shooting time flew by. I received the data a week later, and I am satisfied with the results! It would have been even better if the meeting place had been communicated a bit earlier. Since the ground is dark, participants should be careful and bring minimal belongings!

アフロさんに撮影いただきました。台風前で天候が不安だったのですが、無事綺麗な星空と共に写真を撮ることができました！撮影中も「いいね！」や「ナイス！」などリアクションいただいたり、スピーカーで音楽をかけて下さるなど、被写体が柔らかい表情になる工夫を凝らしており、撮影時間があっという間でした。1週間後にデータをいただき、仕上がりも満足です！
集合場所をもう少し事前にお伝えいただけると尚良かったです！足場が暗いので参加される方は持ち物は最小限でお気をつけて！

Although I made a reservation the day before, I was blessed with good weather and was able to see a wonderful starry sky. When I was unsure about poses, they made suggestions, and I was able to take various photos, creating the best memories. I would love to request this again when I visit Miyako Island.

前日予約でしたが、天気にも恵まれて素敵な星空を見ることができました。
ポーズに悩んだ時に提案していただき、いろんな写真を撮っていただけて最高の思い出になりました。
また宮古島に来た際はお願いしたいなと思いました。

I have visited Miyako Island many times, but I had never been fortunate enough to see the starry sky until this day. I was amazed to see so many beautiful stars for the first time in my life! I asked for a starry sky photo for the first time, and the person in charge, Tenten, made excellent choices for the location and had fantastic photography skills, creating the best memories that have become my treasures! I was also able to see the Milky Way and shooting stars, which made for a very happy time. Tenten is a wonderful person, so I would love to ask for their help again next time. I highly recommend it to anyone who is considering a photo shoot!

宮古島へは何度も来ていますが、なかなか天候に恵まれず星空をみることができなかったのですが、この日は人生で初めてこんなにも星があるの！？ってゆうくらい綺麗な星を見せてもらいました！！初めて、星空フォトをお願いしたのですが、担当して下さったてんてんさんの場所のチョイスや、写真撮影の技術が素晴らしく最高の思い出を作ってくださり私の宝物になりました！！天の川も流れ星も見ることができとても幸せな時間でした。とても人柄も良い方なので次回も、またお願いしたいと思いました。
撮影を迷ってる方はぜひおすすめ致します！！

The Milky Way was incredibly beautiful, and the photos turned out wonderful, creating a great memory! The staff were friendly, and we had a fun time during the shoot. Thank you very much!

天の川がとってもきれいで写真も素敵に撮っていただきとても良い思い出ができました！スタッフの方が気さくな方で楽しく撮影をすることができました♪ありがとうございました

Thank you very much! Thank you very much! Thank you very much! Thank you very much! Thank you very much!

ありがとうございました！ありがとうございました！ありがとうございました！ありがとうございました！ありがとうございました！

It was a natural starry sky that you can't see in the mainland! I was able to see a few shooting stars, which became the best memory. The night tour felt like an adventure in the jungle and brought me back to my childhood! I want to participate again!

内地では見られない天然の星空でした！
流れ星を少し見ることができて、最高の思い出となりました。
ナイトツアーはジャングルの冒険ようで童心に帰れました！
また参加したいと思います！！

After gathering, I felt a thrill just heading north on the pitch-black road. Our guide, Ryoma, confidently said, "I can't guarantee you'll see the stars since it's up to nature, but I will definitely show you the coconut crabs!" He was quite impressive. The search for coconut crabs turned into an exciting exploration of the dark forest for the kids. Of course, the adults were excited too. Surprisingly, we couldn't find the coconut crabs for a while, and while we were looking at the stars, Ryoma got hurt while searching for them. My sons seemed to be inspired by Ryoma's adventurous spirit and charming stories, and they said it was incredibly fun when we got back. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

集合後、真っ暗な道を北上するだけでドキドキしました。ガイドのりょーまさんが『星空は自然相手なので見える保証はできないけど、ヤシガニは僕が100パーセント見せます！』と言いきってて男前でした。ヤシガニ探しも闇夜の森の探検で子供達大興奮。もちろん大人も。意外にもなかなかヤシガニがみつからなくて、私たちが星空を見ている間に身体に怪我を負いながら探してきてくれました。ほんとやんちゃで冒険心のある素敵なりょーまさんのお話や一挙手一投足に息子たちも刺激をもらったようで、サイコーにたのしかった！と帰ってから言ってました。よい想い出をありがとうございました。

I received precise pose instructions from photographer Mr. Amane, and the photos turned out beautifully! He was friendly and engaging, making not just the photos but the entire shoot a wonderful memory. ^ ^

カメラマンの天靖さんに的確にポーズのご指示をいただき、とても素敵な写真になりました！
気さくにお話しいただき、写真だけでなく、この撮影そのものが良い思い出になりました^ ^

Jiro, our guide, took us on a night tour. We were able to see coconut crabs and a beautiful starry sky. Seeing the coconut crabs in person was impressive; they were very large, and I was shocked when he told us that there are even bigger ones. The starry sky was also stunning. It was beautiful even with the moonlight, but I heard that it would be even better during a new moon or when the moon hasn't risen, so I thought I would like to try it again somewhere else.

ガイドのじろうさんがナイトツアーをガイドしてくれました。
ヤシガニと綺麗な星空を観ることが出来ました。生で見るヤシガニは迫力がありとても大きかったですが、これより大きいサイズもいるんだよと教えてくれた時には度肝抜かれました、、星空も満点でした。月明かりがあっても綺麗でしたが、新月や月が昇ってないタイミングだともっと見れると聞き、またどこかでトライしてみたいなと思いました。

The tour guide provided the meeting times at each drop-off location, and the foreign participants adhered to them strictly, allowing us to move according to schedule. The large bus with air conditioning was comfortable, and it also had AC 100V outlets and WiFi available. We were able to cover the highlights of northern Okinawa, which would be quite challenging to do on our own, and we had a fun day. The lunch was delicious as well.

降車場所毎に添乗員さんから集合時刻が案内され、外国人参加者もきっちりそれを守るので、スケジュール通りに移動できました。
空調が効いた大型バスは快適で、AC100VコンセントとWiFiも使えます。
自力で行くとなると結構大変な沖縄本島の北部の見所をおさえられ、楽しい一日を過ごすことができました。
お昼ごはんも美味しかったです。

I would like to express my gratitude to the staff and the owner for their great support. My family participated in the tour, but we struggled with the canoeing. However, the female staff member kindly supported us and took great photos from good positions. I really appreciated her consideration.

Additionally, the owner shared various stories about Iriomote Island during our car ride, for which I am thankful. When my smartphone ran out of battery and I couldn't present my ticket for the ferry to Ishigaki Island, the owner kindly followed up and checked on us.

Thank you for all your help. Next time I visit Iriomote Island, I would like to join a different tour! I will definitely be back!

スタッフさん初めて、オーナーさんには
大変お世話になりました。
家族でツアーに参加しましたが、うまく
カヌーが進まずで、、
でもスタッフの女性の方が、私たち家族を親切にサポートしてくれたり、写真をいいポジションで撮ってくれたり。。配慮して頂きました。
また、オーナーさんには車で西表島の色々な話しを聞かせて頂いたり、感謝です。
スマホの電源が無くなり、石垣島行きの舟のチケットが出せなくなった時は、心配して着いて来てくれたり、、
そのせつはお世話になりました。
次に西表島に行った時は違うツアーに参加したいです！リピ確定！

Entering the pitch-black jungle can be daunting since you never know what might come out, but I'm glad I had the opportunity to experience this tour. Since it's wildlife we're dealing with, it depends on luck, but it seems we were fortunate to see an owl and a turtle this time. The guide was able to spot and introduce creatures that I likely wouldn't have found on my own. The moon was out, and perhaps due to its position, we could see quite a few stars. However, it seemed a bit challenging to capture the beautiful starry sky in photos. The two guide brothers were friendly, and it seemed like they were enjoying themselves as well, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

真っ暗なジャングルの中に入っていくのは何が出てくるかわからないし、躊躇してしまいますが、このようなツアーで体験できてよかったです。
野生生物が相手なので運によりますが、今回はフクロウ、カメなどが見れて当たりだったようです。自分では見つけられないであろう生き物をガイドさんが見つけて紹介してくれました。
月が出ていましたが、位置が良かったのかまぁまぁ星は見れました。
星空はきれいに写真に残すのは少し難しそうでした。
ガイドのお兄さん二人がフレンドリーな方で、ガイドさん自身も楽しんでいるようで、楽しめました。

I was finally able to visit Miyako Island after a year of anticipation, and I created wonderful memories there! I was very nervous, but thanks to the kind words and constant smiles from the staff (Mr. Amane), I was able to participate joyfully! I appreciated the guidance on poses as well, which was helpful. I got to see some of the photos taken, and they turned out beautifully, making for great memories!

At the end, I received detailed recommendations for spots to visit in Miyako Island, which expanded my options for sightseeing from tomorrow onward!

I'm really glad I participated! Thank you, Mr. Amane!

1年越しの思いで来れた宮古島で素敵な思い出が作れました！
とても緊張していましたが、スタッフさん（天靖さん）の優しい声かけと終始の笑顔での対応で楽しく参加できました！ポーズの指定もしてくださり助かりました笑
撮れた写真を1部見させてもらいましたが、とても綺麗な写真を撮ってくださり、良い思い出になりました！
最後には宮古島のおすすめスポット等詳しく教えていただき、明日以降の観光の幅が広がりました！！

本当に参加してよかったです！
天靖さんありがとうございました！
