At Kouri Beach, the wind was strong, so it was disappointing that we couldn't stay on the sandy beach for long. Due to the pumice stone, there were some areas with beautiful white sand, but overall, the impact of the pumice stone was less than I expected. Since this is a natural phenomenon, if you think of it as a memory, it might not be so bad. The submarine at Manza Beach was canceled due to rough waves, which was also disappointing, but the alternative dinosaur park, which I wasn't expecting much from, turned out to be surprisingly enjoyable. At the Churaumi Aquarium, I was able to take my time enjoying the exhibits to the point where I didn't have time for lunch. At Mihama American Village, the sunset over the sea and the Christmas night view were lovely.
古宇利ビーチでは風が強くて、あまり長く砂浜には居られずに残念でした。軽石の影響もあり、綺麗な白い砂浜では箇所もあったけど、思ったよりは軽石の影響は少ない状況でした。これも、自然現象ですし、記念になると思えば、悪くないかも。万座ビーチのサブマリンは波が荒く、運航中止でこれまた残念でしたが、代わりの恐竜パークは期待していなかったが、意外と楽しめました。美ら海水族館では、昼食を食べる時間がなくなる程、ゆっくりと鑑賞することができました。美浜アメリカンビレッジでは、夕暮れの海とクリスマスの夜景が素敵でした。

At the end of November, I went on my first trip to Okinawa with my daughter. We wanted to visit the classic spots, so we joined this tour. The bus had free seating, allowing us to maintain distance from other participants, and they were diligent about mask-wearing and hand sanitizing, which I think ensured good infection control. The time spent at each spot was just right for us. When we were wondering where to have lunch according to the schedule, we received sandwiches, which wasn't mentioned in detail. It was a pleasant surprise and very helpful. The sandwiches were delicious while enjoying the beautiful scenery! We also thoroughly enjoyed the main attraction, the Churaumi Aquarium. We were satisfied to see the dolphin and turtle feeding, as well as the dolphin show. The whale shark was impressive. We moved at a slightly faster pace than planned (but the stay times were as scheduled) and got caught in traffic on the way back, but we arrived at the hotel as planned. The bus guide and the driver were kind, making for a very pleasant trip. I would recommend this bus tour to anyone considering it.
11月末、娘と初めての沖縄旅行に行きました。
定番スポットを巡りたいと思いこちらのツアーに参加しました。バスの中は自由席で他の参加者との間隔を空けることができましたし、マスクの着用、手の消毒もこまめにして頂けて感染対策は出来ていたと思います。各スポットでの滞在時間は、私たちにはちょうど良かったです。スケジュール的にどこでお昼を食べようかと思っていたら…詳細にはなかった、サンドイッチを頂きました。プチサプライズで嬉しかったし助かりました。綺麗な景色を見ながらのサンドイッチは最高に美味しかったです!メインの美ら海水族館も充分に楽しめました。イルカ&カメの餌やりや、イルカショーも見ることができて満足です。
ジンベイザメは圧巻でしたよ。
予定より少し早いペースで進み(滞在時間は予定通り)帰り道、事故渋滞にはまりましたが予定通りホテルに到着できました。バスガイドさんも運転手の方も優しくて、とても気持ちの良い旅になりました。バスツアーを利用しようと考えている方にお勧めしたいです。

I thought it was great that they take people who can't drive to two places in a short time. Okinawa World had many attractions and was fun, so I think it would be even better if we could spend a little more time there. It was also nice that they took us to the airport at the end, allowing us to enjoy ourselves until the very last moment. The bus had a small number of people, so we could sit comfortably. Since we were able to gather on time, it was good that we were able to disperse early as well. I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity.
車を運転できない人には短時間で2箇所連れて行ってくれるのでいいと思いました。
おきなわワールドが見どころが多く楽しかったのでもう少しおきなわワールドは長くいれると楽しめると思いました。
また最後に空港へ送ってくれるので帰り際まで楽しめるのがよかったです。
バスの中も少人数だったのでゆったりと座れました。
時間通りに集合できたこともあり早めに解散にもなってよかったです。
また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

The waves were high, but the glass boat was just safe enough. Sitting in the front seat of the water buffalo cart while listening to the sanshin created a charming atmosphere. When playing the sanshin, it would have been even more wonderful if the player wore traditional Okinawan clothing on top. I was able to touch the fine star sand and spend a leisurely time.
波が高くグラスボートはギリギリセーフ、水牛車の一番前の席で三線を聞きながらは風情がありました。
三線を弾く時、上だけでも沖縄伝統の着物でしたら情緒がありもっとすてき。

I decided to stay in Ishigaki Island as a reward for myself after securing a new job. The driver made sure that I could enjoy sightseeing even as a solo female traveler, sharing various insights about the island's climate, vegetation, and animals, which allowed me to have a great time until the end!
Although it seemed that my initial requests for sightseeing spots weren't fully understood, I was able to spend a relaxed time with detours, and the driver took me to beautiful scenic spots known only to locals, which made for a highly satisfying experience.
There were slightly cheaper sightseeing taxi plans with set routes, but I made the right choice with this plan that allowed for flexible itinerary adjustments while considering the unpredictable winter weather. I would love to repeat this experience if I come back to Ishigaki Island! Thank you!
転職が決まり、これまでの自分へのご褒美として1人で石垣島滞在を決めました。
女性1人でも観光を楽しめるよう、ドライバーさんが観光とともに石垣島の気候や植生、動物のことなど色んなことをお話ししてくださり、最後まで楽しむことができました!
当初希望していた観光スポットがうまく伝わっていなかったのか、全てのスポットを回ることはできなかったのですが、その分寄り道もしながらゆったりした時間を過ごすことができたり、ドライバーさんのお気に入りの絶景スポットなど、現地の人しか知らない美しい景色が見られる場所に案内していただけたりしたので、却って満足度の高い観光ができました^^
ルートが決まっているこちらより少し安めの観光タクシープランもありましたが、変わりやすい冬の天気を読みながら自由に行程をアレンジできるこちらのプランにして正解でした。
また石垣島に来たら、リピートしたいと思います^^
ありがとうございました!

Thanks to the staff being very experienced, we were able to enjoy a smooth sightseeing experience on every remote island. On Iriomote Island, we saw a beautiful rainbow; on Yufu Island, we enjoyed a pleasant walk in the nice weather; and on Taketomi Island, the contrast of bougainvillea, the stone walls, white sand, and blue sky was very moving. Everyone was warm and friendly, making it a wonderful trip!
スタッフの皆さんが非常に慣れていらっしゃったおかげで、どの離島でもとてもスムーズに観光することができました。
西表島では虹が美しく見られ、由布島ではお天気の中の散歩が楽しく、竹富島ではブーゲンビリアと石垣と白い砂と青空のコントラストがとても感動的でした。

The area around Ishigaki Port was crowded with parking, so the hotel shuttle was very helpful. Although there was no tour guide, we efficiently visited the high-speed boat, Nakama River mangrove cruise, Iriomote Island sightseeing bus, Yufu Island water buffalo cart, enjoyed local cuisine bento, the botanical garden, Manta Beach, the Butterfly House, and took fun photos with the water buffalo. The female captain of the mangrove cruise and the bus driver were cheerful and provided humorous explanations. In summer, it would be hot and difficult to walk, but in December, it was cool and comfortable. The water buffalo were adorable.
石垣港のまわりは駐車場が混んでいたりするので、ホテル送迎は助かりました。
添乗員はいないけど、効率的に高速船、仲間川マングローブ遊覧船、西表島観光バス、由布島水牛車、郷土料理のお弁当、植物園、マンタの浜、蝶々館、水牛との写真と楽しくまわれました。マングローブ遊覧船の女性船長さんもバスの運転手さんも明るく、ユーモラスに説明してくたさいました。夏だと暑くて歩くの大変でしょうが、12月で涼しく快適でした。水牛が可愛かったです。

Since I couldn't go on an overseas trip, I visited Ishigaki Island for the first time this time. Honestly, I didn't have high expectations since it was winter, but I was greatly surprised and was able to fully enjoy the tropical atmosphere even in late December.
At the counter of the remote island terminal, I checked in and received a sticker to put on my clothes and a ticket resembling a bus pass with dotted lines. The system is such that the staff at each point cuts the ticket for you when you show it to them. I wondered if the different colors indicated different courses? They understood quickly, and I felt secure touring without a guide.
The boat to the island wasn't very large and had free seating, but it was almost full, so if you don't want to be separated from your companions, it's best to arrive early. Couples who arrived late were unfortunately separated. The weather was good, but the boat swayed quite a bit, so I was glad I took motion sickness medicine.
When we got off the boat at Iriomote Island, there was a boat waiting for us to go up the river, so we transferred. A woman on this boat provided explanations. It was easy to remember the types of mangroves and birds while listening and looking around. I think we were able to see quite a bit as the speed varied.
After that, we transferred to a bus to the water buffalo area. The driver's stories about the island's elementary school, gas stations, and the Iriomote wildcat were enjoyable. I appreciated the relaxed talk while driving on the narrow roads.
For the water buffalo ride, both on the way there and back, I was seated at the back, so I could only see the back of the buffalo pulling us. I was watching the buffalo coming from behind. I couldn't hear the explanations from the male guide very well, and I couldn't make out the songs, so if you're interested, it's better to sit in the front.
Upon arriving at Yubu Island, we dispersed immediately, and I could present my ticket and have a meal at my own timing. I don't like walking in a group to the dining hall, so this was great. I enjoyed the lunch while reading the explanations, including dishes like mimiga (pork ear) salad and sea grapes.
After that, as per the reviews, there was plenty of time, so I was able to leisurely stroll through the butterfly garden, mangrove walkway, and bougainvillea garden. I even took a photo with the water buffalo. I seriously shouted "usshishi" and ended up with a funny face in the picture, so I didn't purchase it but just got a small photo as a keepsake. There were many plumeria trees planted in one corner of the island, and even in late December, a few were blooming! I wonder if more would bloom in a warmer season, and I would love to visit again. It's interesting to see that plumeria can grow outdoors in Japan. There are also many palm trees, and I enjoyed walking while checking the various types with their names written next to them. I became even more interested after visiting the Satake Yaeyama Palm Museum before participating in this tour.
Not just for this tour, but I feel that in the summer, Ishigaki Island might be too hot for strolling, so winter was just right for enjoying a walk while looking at tropical plants. If you love tropical areas and greenhouses, I highly recommend Yubu Island.
I thought it was a good deal to sign up for this monitor tour without Taketomi Island, but after returning to Ishigaki Island, I was able to go to a popular izakaya that is hard to book if you go early, and I could also visit Taketomi Island freely the next day to thoroughly collect star sand, so this was the right choice for us.
Oh, finally, one thing I noticed was that since the transfers were smooth, it was a bit difficult to figure out the timing and locations for the restroom. I wonder if there was guidance for those who wanted to go? Perhaps it was communicated to those at the front who were asking.
I'm sorry for the long message fueled by excitement, thank you!
海外旅行に行けないので今回初めて石垣島へ行きました。冬なので正直あまり期待しないで行きましたが、大きく裏切られ、12月後半ですが南国気分を満喫できました。
離島ターミナルのカウンターで受付、服に貼るシールとバスの回数券のような点線入りチケットを受け取ります。その場その場の係の人に見せると勝手に切ってくれるシステムです。色でコースが違うのか?すぐわかってくれて間違いもなく添乗員さん無しでも安心して観光出来ました。
行きの船はあまり大きくなくて、自由席ですがほぼ満席だったので連れと離れたくない人は早めに行くべし。ゆっくり来たカップルは離れてかわいそうでした。天気は良かったのですが結構上下に揺れたので酔い止め飲んでおいて良かったです。
西表島で船を降りると横に川のぼりの船が待っていたので乗り換えました。こちらの船の中では女性の方が説明をしてくれました。マングローブの種類や鳥など、見ながら聞くと覚えますね。その後の旅の間も気にして見ることが出来ました。スピードも緩急使い分けて結構上の方まで見れたと思います。
その後下流に戻って水牛の場所までのバスに乗り換えです。運転手さんの島の小学校やガソリンスタンド、イリオモテヤマネコなどについての話が楽しかったです。狭い道路を運転をしながらゆるめのトークで楽しませてくれてありがたい。
次の水牛は行きも帰りも乗ったのが後ろの方だったので引いてくれている水牛は背中しか見えず、後ろから来る水牛を見たりしていました。男性の方の説明もあまり聞こえず、歌もよく聞き取れずよくわからなかったので興味のある方は前に乗った方が良いです。
油布島は到着後すぐに解散で好きなタイミングでチケットを出して食事ができ、ぞろぞろ歩いて食堂というのが好きではないので良かったです。お弁当も説明を読みながらミミガーの和え物や海ぶどうなどを美味しく頂きました。
その後も口コミどおり時間がたっぷりあったので結構ゆったりとチョウ園やマングローブ遊歩道、ブーゲンビリア園など散策出来ました。水牛君と写真も撮ってもらいました。真面目に”うっしっしー”の掛け声をしてしまい半端に口が横に開いて変な顔で写ってしまい購入はせず小さい写真だけ頂きました笑。島内の一角にプルメリアもたくさん植わっていて、12月下旬ですがポツポツですが咲いていました!もう少し暖かい時期だともっと咲いているのかなあと思うとまた行きたい。国内で地植えで温室外でプルメリアが育つんですねえ。ヤシの木もたくさんあるのですがよく見ると種類も様々で横に名前が書いてあるのを確かめながら歩くのが楽しかったです。こちらに参加するまえにサタケ八重山ヤシ記念館へ行ったので余計に興味がわきました。
このツアーに限らずですが、石垣島は夏だと暑くて散策できない気がするので南国の植物を眺めながら散歩を楽しむなら冬でちょうど良かったです。南国好き、植物園の温室好きなら油布島超おすすめです。
モニターツアーということでお得だと思い竹富島無しのこちらに申し込みましたが、石垣島に戻ってから予約が取りにくい居酒屋さんに早めの時間なら、と、行くことも出来たし、竹富島はフリーで翌日行きじっくり星の砂を拾うことができたので私たちにはこちらが正解でした。
あ、最後に、ひとつ気が付いたことですが、スムーズに乗り換えが続くのでちょっとトイレのタイミングや場所がわかりずらかったです。行きたい人がいれば案内があるのか?先頭で聞いていた人には伝わっていいたのか?もしれませんが。
興奮冷めやらず長文になってしまいすみません、ありがとうございました!

On December 16th (Saturday), I participated with my wife. We received an explanation about the schedule at the Ishigaki Port tour desk, and at each point, the guides kindly led us, allowing us to enjoy without any confusion.
The weather that day was cloudy, and the ferry between Ishigaki and Iriomote was rocky due to high waves, but the Nakama River mangrove cruise was smooth, and we thoroughly enjoyed the natural beauty of Iriomote while listening to the guide's explanations. We traveled from the boat dock to Mihara by large bus, where the driver, Mr. Ishigaki, provided a unique and entertaining talk about the history, nature, wildlife, and visitors of Iriomote Island.
The transfer to Yubu Island included a water buffalo cart experience, which I had only seen in pictures before. The live music on the water was memorable, and the Okinawan lunch box at Yubu was delicious, with each dish explained in detail.
Although this was a quick course, it was a high-cost performance tour. If I have another chance, I would like to use the tour again. Thank you very much. Tour Monitor Takataka
12月16日(土)に家内と二人で参加しました。石垣港のツアー窓口で日程についての説明を受け、それぞれのポイントでは案内の方が丁寧に誘導してくれ各地戸惑う事も無く楽しむ事が出来ました。
当日の天気は曇りで石垣⇄西表のフェリーは高波で揺れましたが仲間川マングローブクルーズは揺れる事もなくガイドさんの説明を受け西表の自然を満喫しました。ボート乗り場から三原までは大型バスにて移動ですがここでは運転手の石垣さんより西表島について独特なトークで島の歴史、自然、野生動物、島への訪問者等について面白おかしく説明を受けました。由布島への移動は以前から画像でしか見た事のない水牛車体験。水上での三線は思い出の残る歌声、由布での沖縄料理のお弁当は一品一品説明が記載されて美味しく頂きました。
今回は早回りコースでしたがコストパフォーマンスの高いツアーでした。次回チャンス有りましたらまたツアーを利用させて頂きたいと思います。有難うございました。 ツアーモニター タカタカ

At first, I considered going there by transferring on the Okinawa bus, but I was about to give up because it would take a lot of time and wouldn't be efficient. That's when I found this tour.

The guide arrived early before the pickup time and waited for us. Of course, everyone wore masks! Before getting on the bus, we had our temperatures checked and used hand sanitizer! It was a reassuring situation to participate in the tour. Inside the bus, eating and drinking were prohibited, masks were required, and we were asked not to speak loudly... the infection control measures were thorough.
First, we headed north along the coastline of Onna Village! The emerald green sea and white sandy beaches were incredibly beautiful and breathtaking. However, it was unfortunate that pumice stones were drifting around. The black pumice on the white sand... well, it's a natural phenomenon, so it can't be helped... Cobalt blue! Emerald green! The scenery was stunning, and I truly felt that I was in Okinawa.
First stop, Manzamo... it was magnificent. The wind was strong, and my hat almost flew away... (laughs) An umbrella was not much help!
Pineapple Park & Okashi Goten... well, it was average. I bought pineapple wine, purple sweet potato tarts, chinsuko, and purple sweet potato sata-andagi as souvenirs. I was able to buy the souvenirs that are a must when visiting Okinawa, so that was a plus.
Churaumi Aquarium: I was left in awe of the size of the whale shark. The manta rays were also larger than I expected, and I spent about 30 minutes gazing up at them in the tank. If you have time, I also recommend the dolphin show.
Overall, it was a very satisfying tour.
添乗される方が、ピックアップ時間より早めに来て、待っていてくださいました。もちろんマスク着用!バスに乗る前に検温、手の消毒!安心してツアーに参加できる状況でした。車内では飲食禁止、マスク着用、大きな声でしゃべらないなど・・・感染対策はバッチリでした。
まずは恩納村の海岸線を北上!エメラルドグリーンの海、白い砂浜!!とても綺麗で感動ものです。ただ軽石が漂流していた点が残念です。白い砂浜にくろい軽石の砂・・・まあ自然現象なので仕方ないですが・・・コバルトブルー!、エメラルドグリーン!その栄目は見ごたえがあり、沖縄に来たと実感できました。
まずは万座毛・・・圧巻です。風が強く帽子が飛ばされそうになりましたが・・・(笑)日傘は役立ちません!
パイナップルパーク&御菓子御殿・・・まあ普通です。パイナップルワイン、紅芋タルト、ちんすうこう、紅芋のサーターアンダギーをお土産に買いました。沖縄にきて買うべきお土産は買えたので、その点ではGOODです。
美ら海水族館:ジンベイザメの大きさに口を開けるばかりです。
マンタも思っていた以上に大きく、水槽の上を見ながら30分くらい眺めていました。時間に余裕があれば、イルカショウもおすすめです。
全般的に、とても満足のいくツアーでした。

On December 1st (Wednesday), my wife and I participated. The weather that day was clear, with temperatures around 20 degrees, making it neither too cold nor too hot, which was perfect for sightseeing. Although there was a strong wind exceeding 10 m/sec, the high-speed boat was stable, and there didn't seem to be anyone feeling unwell due to the motion.
Regarding COVID-19 safety measures, all participants and staff were, of course, wearing masks. Additionally, the tour took place mostly in open areas (such as water buffalo and Nakama River boat rides), and during lunch, there was more than enough space between individuals in the restaurant. Although I was a bit concerned about the short bus ride, everyone wore masks, and there was little conversation inside the vehicle, so it seemed to be fine.
What I felt during this tour was the excellent organization of the local staff and the enjoyable guidance. Although it was a short time, I was able to experience the fascinating and beautiful nature of Yaeyama. My wife and I would like to give this tour a perfect score.
12/1(水)妻と二人で参加しました。この日の天気は晴れ、気温は20度前後で寒くもなく暑くもなく観光には丁度良かったです。ただ10m/secを超える強風が吹いてましたが、高速船は安定しており揺れもほとんどなく気分の悪くなるような人はいないようでした。
コロナの感染対策に関しましては、もちろん参加者、スタッフ全員がマスク着用してました。またツアー自体がオープンな場所(水牛、仲間川ボート等)が多く、昼食時もレストランでの一人一人の間隔が十分すぎるほどとってありました。ただ短い時間ですがバス移動が少し心配でしたが、全員マスク着用し、車内での会話も少なく問題ないように思われました。
今回このツアーで感じたことはそれぞれの現地スタッフの段取りの良さと楽しいガイド。
短い時間でしたが興味深く、美しい八重山の自然に触れさせてもらいました。
このツアーに妻と二人で満点をつけたいと思います。

Unfortunately, the rain at the start made me feel a bit disappointed, but gradually I stopped worrying about the rain and enjoyed my first experience in the Yaeyama Islands.
The Nakama River Mangrove Cruise allowed us to observe various types of mangroves up close, and it was truly impressive. The guide's explanations were also very easy to understand.
And then, the water buffalo cart ride to Yubu Island! I was excited to see what it would be like. It was... the sound of gentle waves, the relaxed footsteps of the water buffalo, and the beautiful melodies played by the guide on the sanshin all combined to create a somewhat mysterious and very pleasant time. On Yubu Island, I enjoyed a botanical garden filled with various plants and had a bento lunch.
This tour included visits to two islands, allowing us to spend time leisurely without rushing. The transfers were smooth, and I think the efficiency was very good. Even with just two islands, this tour allows you to experience the wonderfulness of the Yaeyama Islands. I highly recommend it!
あいにくの雨でスタート時は残念な気持ちの方が大きかったのですが、だんだん雨も気にならず、初の八重山を楽しめました。
仲間川マングローブクルーズは何種類ものマングローブを間近で観察でき、その様は圧巻です。
ガイドの方の説明もとてもわかりやすいものでした。
そして、由布島に渡る水牛車!
どんな感じなんだろうと、楽しみだったんです。
それは...静かな波の音とゆったり歩く水牛の足音、そしてガイドの方が奏でる三線の音色、それらが相まって、ちょっと不思議な、とても心地よい時間でした。
由布島では様々な植物が生い茂る植物園を堪能し、お弁当をいただきました。
今回のツアーは2島をめぐる行程で、あせらずゆっくり時間を過ごせました。移動もスムーズで、効率もとても良かったと思います。
2島だけでも八重島の素晴らしさを体感できるツアーです。おすすめです!

I highly recommend this for first-time visitors. It's great that you can efficiently visit the highlights in a short amount of time. Additionally, having free time is a nice touch. At the beginning of the tour, you are given a tour number, and local guides with that number are present at each arrival location to assist you. The mangrove tour at Nakama River allows you to see the sights at a leisurely pace while they explain everything. The seating on the boat is unreserved. Next, you take a bus to the ferry terminal for Yufu Island. The bus driver also provides guidance, so you won't get bored during the ride. When crossing to Yufu Island, you can leave large luggage on the bus, allowing you to go to the island hands-free. There is plenty of free time on Yufu Island, so you won't feel rushed. Flowers are everywhere, creating a resort-like atmosphere. The lunch venue also has souvenir shops with many limited edition items. Instead of eating lunch while moving, you can eat at your own pace before the meeting time for the water buffalo cart. This way, if you finish eating early, you can explore more of the island. There is also a café on the island, and the cake there was very delicious. On the way back, you ride a different water buffalo cart, giving you a different atmosphere to enjoy. After that, you transfer back via bus and boat.
We arrived at the hotel around 2:30 PM after everything was finished. Since the tour ends early, it allows for flexible planning of your itinerary. You can choose to go out or relax. The tour doesn't take up the entire day, so for those with a short stay in Ishigaki Island, it's highly recommended for its flexibility in planning your trip. The staff from the tour company who provided the transportation were also very humble and polite, leaving a great impression.
I would like to use this service again when I visit Ishigaki Island.
初めて訪れる方にはとってもおすすめです。短時間で効率よく見所を回れるのが良いところです。また、ちゃんとフリータイムもあるのもいいポイント。ツアーの最初にツアー番号みないなものが伝えられ、各到着場所にそのツアー番号を持った現地の方がいて案内をしてくれます。仲間川のマングローブツアーも見所を説明しながらゆっくり見ることができます。船の席は自由席です。次にバスにのり由布島の船着場に移動します。バス車内も運転士さんがガイドをしてくれるため、飽きることなく乗ることが出来ます。由布島に渡る際、大きな荷物などはバスに置いていけるため、手ぶらで島に渡れます。由布島ではゆっくり回っても十分なくらいフリータイムがあり、忙しなさは感じませんでした。至る所に花々があり、リゾート感満載です。お弁当を食べる会場ではお土産屋さんも併設してあり、限定品も多くあります。お弁当はみんなで移動して食べるのではなく、水牛車乗り場の集合時間までに自分のタイミングで食べる形になります。そのため早く食べ終わればより多く島を見て回ることが出来ます。島内にはカフェもあり、そこのケーキがとてもおいしかったです。帰りは行きとは違う水牛車に乗るため、また一味違う雰囲気が味わえます。あとはバスと船を乗り継いで帰ります。
全部が終わって14:30頃には送迎先のホテルに着きました。早めにツアーが終わるため、自由に行程が組めるのがいいと思います。出かけるのもよし、ゆっくりするのもよし。ツアーで1日が終わるのではないので、石垣島の滞在日数が短い人には旅の行程を考える上でとても自由度が高くおすすめです。また送迎をしていただいたツアー会社の人もとても腰が低く、丁寧で印象的でした。
また石垣島に行った際には利用したいと思います。

Since it was my first trip to Ishigaki Island, I signed up for an island tour.
As expected, Japan's largest mangrove forest was even more expansive than I imagined. I felt the strength of life there. The bus driver's way of speaking on Iriomote Island was very entertaining. It made me want to see the Iriomote cat.
The water buffalo cart ride to Yubu Island was fun. The main character was the water buffalo, and the carefree buffalo that turned to look at its companions catching up was adorable. It was a healing moment.
I recommend the butterfly garden on Yubu Island. The butterflies seemed accustomed to humans, allowing for close-up photos and observations.
The special Yubu Island bento was delicious. The seasoning on the pig's ear was particularly excellent. I was very satisfied with the sea grapes as well.
I was happy to find cute star sand at Kaiji Beach. The weather was favorable, and the sea was very beautiful.
The Ryukyu red-tiled roofs of Taketomi Island, the shisa that protect the island, the shisa that pray for prosperity, and the stone walls made of coral were all very educational during the short cart ride with the guide. If you have extra time after getting off, I recommend walking the route the cart took for another round.
Since we used a boat, bus, and cart, there was no need to walk. It's also recommended for elderly people and those with children. I was able to fully experience the essence of Ishigaki Island, including the mangroves of Iriomote Island, the water buffalo carts of Yubu Island, and the townscape of Taketomi Island, making for a very fulfilling day. Thank you very much.
初めて石垣島旅行だったので、島巡りツアーに申込みました。
さすが日本最大のマングローブ林は想像以上に広かったです。生命力の強さを感じました。
西表島のバス運転手さんの話し方がとても面白かったです。ヤマネコを会いたくなりました。
由布島への水牛車は楽しかったです。主役は水牛さんになり、追いついてきた仲間を振りかえるのんきな水牛さんはかわいかったです。癒される瞬間でした。
由布島の蝶々園をお勧めです。蝶々が人間に慣れているようで、近く写真撮り、観察ができました。
由布島特製幕の内弁当が美味しかったです。特に豚耳の味付けが最高です。海ぶどうもあり大満足でした。
カイジ浜で可愛い星砂を見つけて幸せです。天気にも恵まれて、海がとてもきれいでした。
竹富島の琉球赤瓦の屋根、島を守るシーサー、子孫繁栄祈りのシーサー、サンゴで造られた石垣など、短い牛車乗車時間でガイドの説明でとても勉強になりました。下車後、時間の余裕がある場合、牛車が回った路線を自分の足でもう一回りのもおすすめです。
船、バスと牛車を乗りますので歩く必要がありません。高齢な方、及び子供連れの方にもおすすめです。
西表島のマングローブ、由布島の牛車、竹富島の町並みなど石垣島らしさを存分に味わうことができ、とても内容の濃い1日を過ごすことができました。
ありがとうございました。

On my first trip to Okinawa, I traveled alone without a car. I signed up for a bus tour to visit the Churaumi Aquarium, and it turned out to be a very enjoyable and fulfilling day. The guide and the driver were both friendly, and they made sure to properly sanitize with alcohol every time we returned to the bus.
The course included not only the Churaumi Aquarium, which was my main goal, but also other activities that allowed me to fully enjoy Okinawa. I probably wouldn't have been able to organize such a fulfilling itinerary on my own, and the weather was great, making it a memorable day. If I come back to Okinawa, I would like to sign up for other courses as well.
I especially appreciated the guide, who noticed my Korean name and provided explanations in Hangul for greetings and departure times. Thank you very much for your kind consideration; it created another wonderful memory for me. Thank you so much! :)
初めての沖縄旅行で、車無しの一人旅。何となく美ら海水族館に行きたくて申し込んだバスツアーでしたが、とても楽しくて充実な1日になりました。
ガイドの方も運転手の方も愛想が言い方で、バスに戻るたびにアルコール消毒などもきちんとしてました。
目的だった美ら海水族館以外のコースも沖縄を満喫出来る、多分一人では組めないと思いぐらい充実なコースで、天気もよくて思い出になるいい一日でした。また沖縄に来たら他のコースも申込みたいと思います。特にガイドさん、韓国人の私の名前に気付き挨拶や出発時間の案内などハングルの説明を。ありがとうございました。優しいお気遣いにまた良い思い出が出来ました。どうもありがとうございました:)

This tour was very satisfying. The weather was nice and the climate was just right, so I was able to visit various places without getting tired, which was great. The refreshing Manzamo and the wonderful dolphin show at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium left a deep impression on me.
Additionally, the tour itself progressed smoothly, and the guide's introduction of knowledge about Okinawa during the transit was very interesting and kept me engaged. In particular, the story about the origin of "mensore" and the history of the Ryukyu Islands was excellent.
If I have the opportunity, I would consider using your services again, and if I know anyone thinking about a trip to Okinawa, I would recommend your company.
こちらのツアーは大変満足のいくものでした。天気も良く気候もちょうど良かったため、疲れることなく色々なところを回ることができたのはよかったです。
爽やかな万座毛や、素晴らしいイルカショーの美ら海水族館が印象深いものでした。
またツアー自体もスムーズに進み、移動中のガイドさんによる沖縄に関する知識の紹介も大変興味深く、退屈しないものでした。なかでも、「めんそーれ」の語源の話や、琉球の歴史についての話は大変良かったです。
機会があればまた利用を考えたいですし、知人に沖縄旅行を考える人がいれば、貴社の利用を進めたいとおもいました。

This time, I traveled with my mother. Since it was our first time in Ishigaki Island, we chose this course to casually explore the islands of the Yaeyama Islands.
On the sightseeing boat in Iriomote Island, the female captain kept the atmosphere lively while explaining the mangroves and the creatures. We swayed gently while listening to shamisen songs as we crossed to Yubu Island by water buffalo cart, and the water buffaloes were truly adorable. The lunch we had on Yubu Island offered a taste unique to the local area. After that, we headed to Taketomi Island. On Taketomi Island, you can choose to rent bicycles, but if you're not confident in your stamina, I recommend taking the bus. The scenery on Taketomi Island feels like a time trip, making you forget the passage of time. Here, too, we swayed in the water buffalo cart while listening to shamisen as we explored the town.
What I felt the most was how great the guides were at keeping everyone entertained! The bus drivers, water buffalo cart operators, and boat captains on each island were all so much fun. I think this course is perfect for those who are visiting Ishigaki Island for the first time and want to see the Yaeyama Islands. Next, I want to stay in Iriomote Island and experience mangrove kayaking. My mother mentioned she would like to stay in the red brick building on Taketomi Island. We rushed through the islands, but each one has its own characteristics, so I'm sure you'll find your favorite island!
今回、母と二人での旅行でした。
二人とも石垣島は初めてなので、八重山諸島の島を巡り島の様子をさらっと見て回りたいとのことでこちらのコースを選択しました。
西表島の遊覧船ではマングローブや生き物たちの説明をしながら女性の船長が楽しく盛り上げます。三味線の歌を聴きながらゆらゆら揺れて由布島へ水牛車で渡りますが、水牛たちが本当に可愛かったです。由布島で食べるお弁当は地元ならではの味が味わえます。その後竹富島へ。竹富島ではレンタルサイクル等選べますが、体力に自信が無い方はバスをお勧めします。竹富島での町並みはタイムトリップをしたような風景が時を忘れさせます。ここでも水牛車に揺られ三味線を聴きながら町並みを散策します。
一番感じたことは、ガイドさんがみんなとても盛り上げ上手だということ!!それぞれの島でバスの運転手さんや、水牛車の方、遊覧船の船長さんなど、楽しい方ばかりでした。
石垣島が初めてで八重山諸島も見たいという方にはぴったりなコースだと思います。次は西表島に宿泊してマングローブカヤックを体験したいと思います。母は竹富島の赤煉瓦に宿泊したいと言っていました。駆け足で島を巡りますがそれぞれ島に特徴があるので、きっとお気に入りの島を見つけれると思いますよ~

I participated at the beginning of December. The weather I was worried about turned out to be nice, and it became a great trip. However, since the wind was a bit strong, I think it would be good to bring a light jacket or something similar.
I was able to efficiently visit Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, which I think would be quite difficult to do on your own. It was my first visit this time, and I'm glad I joined the tour. The mangroves on Iriomote Island were very impressive, and the guide's stories were great. The mangrove tour is done by boat, but seating is first-come, first-served, so I recommend boarding early and sitting by the window rather than in the aisle. This way, you can see the scenery better and take photos more easily.
On Yufu Island, I had a valuable experience that you can't easily find elsewhere, riding an ox cart while listening to shamisen music and taking photos with water buffalo. Taketomi Island has a charming red brick village, giving the impression that time flows slowly. This time, we toured by bus and ox cart. While the bus is efficient for getting around, I think it would also be nice to explore freely by renting a bicycle next time.
12月の初めに参加しました。心配していたお天気も良く、いい旅になりました。
ただ風がちょっと強かったので、羽織るものなど1枚持っていたらいいかと思います。
西表島、由布島、竹富島を効率よくまわることができ、個人だとこのスケジュールはなかなか厳しいと思います。今回初めての訪問でしたがツアーに参加して良かったです。
西表島のマングローブも、とても見応えがあり、ガイドさんのお話も良かったです。マングローブは船に乗っての観光ですが、席は早い者勝ちなので早めに乗り込み、通路側ではなく窓側席に座ることをオススメします。
景色も見やすく写真も撮りやすいです。
由布島では三味線を聴きながら牛車に乗ったり水牛と一緒に写真撮影も出来て、なかなか他では味わえない貴重な体験が出来ました。
竹富島は赤レンガの集落が風情があり、時間がゆっくり流れているかのような印象でした。今回はバスと牛車での観光でした。バスはやはり効率よくまわれていいと思いますが、次はレンタルサイクルで自由にまわるのもいいなと思います。

This time, it was just the two of us seniors participating, so the hotel pick-up was especially appreciated.
First, we enjoyed a mangrove tour in Iriomote Island, where the charming female captain's storytelling was captivating, and her navigation skills exceeded our expectations. On Yubu Island, we leisurely crossed the shallow waters on a water buffalo cart while singing, and there was a humorous incident with some droppings in the water that added to the experience. Since lunch was included, we were served a nice meal. We took our time eating, but what I appreciated most was being able to stroll leisurely around the island.
Then, on Taketomi Island, we enjoyed a relaxed exploration of the village with red-brick houses on a water buffalo cart, which truly felt like stepping back in time. Additionally, at Kaiji Beach, the two of us returned to our childhood, desperately searching for star sand, and I wished we had more time. It was a memorable day.
I am grateful that we could efficiently visit three different islands in one day thanks to this tour.
今回年寄二人での参加だったので、ホテル送迎が何より有り難かったです。
まず西表島でのマングローブ遊覧、きっぷの良い女性船長の話ぷりが魅力的で、操縦も上手、期待以上で満喫できた。由布島には水牛車でのんびりゆらゆら浅瀬を歌に乗って渡るが、水の中にうんちのハプニングもあり癒された。昼食付だったので、上げ膳据え膳。ゆっくり食べたが、ゆったり島内を散策できたのが何よりだった。そして、竹富島ならではの水牛車で赤煉瓦の民家の集落をのんびり散策はほんとうに一昔前にタイムスリップした様で忘れがたい。また、カイジ浜で、年寄二人、童心にかえって必死で星砂を探し、もっと時間があればと思った事など思い出深い一日となった。
今回、三島三様の島を効率よく一日で回れたのは、このツアーのお蔭と嬉しく、感謝しています。

It happened to be low tide on the day I participated, so during the mangrove tour, there were many shallow areas and sandbars, allowing us to see the roots of the mangroves very well. I sat on the left side of the boat, but if there’s space, I recommend sitting on the right side. Since it’s a round trip, you’ll see the same scenery, but I think the first half offers more explanations and insights.
I had been looking forward to riding the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island for a long time, so I was very excited to participate this time. Once I actually rode it, I started to worry a bit about the burden on the water buffalo, but listening to the guide, it was clear that they are raised with a lot of love, and I felt reassured to hear that their lifespan is longer than that of water buffalo in other regions.
We moved at a leisurely pace with the water buffalo, and depending on the cart, our arrival times varied. On Yubu Island, I interacted with Louis, who was in charge of taking photos, and he took some pictures for us. The small photos are free, while the larger size costs 2,500 yen for one or 3,500 yen for a set of two (I bought the set of two). Of course, it’s perfectly fine to decline. However, please note that you can only take photos with your own camera (phone) with Louis.
I thought 90 minutes on the island might be a bit long, but after having lunch and spending some time playing on the beach, it turned out to be just the right amount of time. Since I had other plans in the afternoon, I highly recommend the half-day course.
参加した日がたまたま干潮の時だったそうで、マングローブ遊覧の時浅瀬や中洲が多くマングローブの根もとても良く見れました。
私は船の左側に座ったのですが席に余裕があれば右側に座られる事をお勧めします。往復するので同じ景色を観れるのですが前半の方がいろいろな解説と共に観れるかなって思います。
由布島の水牛車は以前から乗りたかったので今回はとても楽しみにして参加しました。
実際に乗ってみると水牛にかかる負担とかもちょっと気になってしまいましたが、ガイドさんの話を聞いてるととても愛情深く育てられているのが伝わり寿命も他の地域の水牛よりも長いと聞いて安心して楽しめました。
ゆっくり水牛のペースで進み、乗る車によって到着もまちまちでした。
由布島では写真担当のルイ君と触れあったり写真の撮影もしてもらえて小さい写真は無料でもらえます。大きなサイズは有料で1枚2,500円2枚セットで3,500円出した。(私は2枚セットでを買いました)もちろんお断りでも全然大丈夫よのうです。ただし自分のカメラ(携帯)での撮影はルイ君のみしか出来ないので気をつけてくださいね。
島での90分は少し長いかなっと思いましたが、ランチのお弁当をたべて少しゆっくり海岸で遊んだらいい時間になってました。
午後から他の予定もいられるので半日のコースはとてもお勧めです。

Our tour included seven people, including my spouse and me. Even though it was a tour during this season, the number of empty seats made me think about the travel agency's profitability. We boarded the bus at the prefectural office in our departure area. The plan was to pick up tour guests from several hotels, but it turned out to be a tour with only the guests who boarded at the prefectural office, allowing us to reach our destination earlier than scheduled without stopping at hotels.
Although it wasn't my first visit to Manzamo or the Churaumi Aquarium, the lack of crowds made the experience feel very fresh. We were able to enjoy it leisurely. The guide, who seemed to have been on a break for a while, provided accurate explanations and allowed us to touch on Okinawa's history.
We had a very fulfilling day. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
私たち夫婦を含めて7名でのツアーでした。
この時期でのツアーとはいえ、空席の多さを見て旅行社の採算のことを考えさせられました・・・。
私たちは出発地の県庁前から乗り込みました。予定ではいくつかのホテルからツアー客をピックアップするはずでした。が、県庁前から乗り込んだツアー客だけのツアーとなり、ホテルへ寄ることなく予定より早い時刻に目的地へ行くことができました。
万座毛も美ら海水族館も含めて初めての訪問ではないのですが、人の少なさからとても新鮮でした。ゆったりと楽しめました。
ガイドさんもお休みが続いていて、久しぶりのガイドだったようですが、説明も的確で沖縄の歴史に触れることができました。
