All Reviews for Top Okinawa Attractions

This is a tour that efficiently covers the famous spots in central to northern Okinawa. The bus guide was entertaining, and I was able to learn about Okinawa's history and current situation. It was a very satisfying tour, including the pricing.

沖縄の中部～北部の名スポットを効率よくまわれるツアーです。
バスガイドさんの話も面白く、沖縄の歴史や現状も学ぶ事ができました。
料金面も含む、大満足のツアーです。

During the bus tour amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the guide sprayed alcohol every time we got on and off the bus, which made us feel safe. The weather in Ishigaki Island was very changeable, with sunshine and rain alternating rapidly within half a day, but we were fortunate that it didn't rain during the times we were outside. Even on a cloudy day, we were told we could see the beautiful colors of the sea at Kabira Bay, and indeed, despite the clouds, we were able to see the emerald green sea. Although the time spent at each location was not long, it felt like we were shown the highlights at a good pace. Thank you very much.

コロナ禍でのバスツアー、ガイドさんはバス乗降の度にアルコールをスプレーして下さって安心出来ました。
石垣島のお天気はとても変わりやすく、半日の間に晴れたり雨が降ったりと目まぐるしく変わりましたが、外に出ている時間帯には降られずに助かりました。
川平湾は曇りであっても美しい海の色が見られる、とのことで、実際に曇りでしたがエメラルドグリーンの海を見ることが出来ました。
一箇所の滞在時間は短くはありましたが、テンポ良く見所を見せて貰えた感じです。　
ありがとうございました。

During my previous visits to Ishigaki Island, I mostly enjoyed the underwater activities, so this experience was refreshing. I was able to truly appreciate the tourism catchphrase that Ishigaki Island also has amazing mountains. On the day of my visit, the weather was occasionally rainy, but the view from the observation deck was great, and I could clearly see the transparency of the surrounding sea from the land. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I gained a lot from the experience. It was also nice to have a delicious lunch filled with local specialties at a scenic spot. The only downside was that due to the schedule of the flights and boats, I couldn't spend much time at the sightseeing locations.

これまでの石垣島訪問では、海の中を楽しむほとんどだったので、新鮮でした。そして、石垣島は山もすごい、という観光キャッチフレーズを実感できました。当日は、時折小雨も降る天気でしたが、展望台からも見晴らしは良く、陸上からも石垣島周辺の海の透明度の良さがよくわかりました。ガイドの説明もわかりやすく、得るものがたくさんありました。見晴らしの良い場所で、石垣島の美味しいもの満載の昼食をいただけたのもよかったです。残念だったのは、飛行機や船の時間の都合で、見学地でゆっくりできなかったことです。

I was able to learn about the lives of the people in Okinawa, including their history, food, housing, and culture, through the guide's stories. I was moved by the connection between Ken Takakura and the elementary school. Despite the unfortunate weather, I’m glad I participated. Thank you very much.

観光はもちろん、歴史や食、住、文化など沖縄の人々の暮らしぶりをガイドさんのお話で知ることができました。高倉健さんと小学校とのつながりには感動しました。あいにくのお天気でしたが、参加して良かったと思います。ありがとうございました。

The staff provided thorough explanations on how to canoe, knowledge about the mangroves, and ways to enjoy the experience, making it a very enjoyable and satisfying tour! Although the weather wasn't sunny, we were able to appreciate the unique charm and atmosphere that comes with cloudy weather followed by rain. They also took many photos, leaving us with beautiful memories. We couldn't visit the Blue Cave this time due to the weather, so I hope to try again next time. Thank you!

スタッフの方が丁寧にカヌーの乗り方、マングローブの知識、楽しみ方など説明をしてくださり、とても楽しく大満足のツアーでした！！
晴天ではありませんでしたが、曇りのち雨ならではの魅力、雰囲気を味わうことができました。
写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、思い出もキレイな形で残っています。
今回は天気の都合で青の洞窟には行けなかったので、次回再チャレンジできればとおもいます。
ありがとうございました！

The mangrove kayaking allowed us to slowly paddle down the river and fully enjoy nature. The snorkeling was a bit cold, but it was great to see so many fish and corals. The instructor was also a very nice person, which made it fun! 😊

マングローブカヤックは川をゆっくりカヤックで進んで　自然を堪能できました。
シュノーケリングは少し寒かったけど　魚や珊瑚を沢山見れて良かったです。
インストラクターの方もとても感じの良い人で楽しかったです(^^)

After the New Year, I went to warm Ishigaki!

After touring the island, I decided to book some sports activities! At first, I was worried that the sea might still be cold, but I was recommended to try stand-up paddleboarding in the mangroves, and it was safe and easy even for beginners! Our guide, Mako-chan, taught us carefully, and the waves were stable, so I didn’t have to worry about falling into the water at all!

Then, in the afternoon, we headed out for snorkeling. The moment I got into the water, I thought, "Oh, it's cold!" but I quickly immersed myself in the beautiful underwater world, and it was so much fun!

When I got out of the water, it was a bit chilly, but the car's heating was working great, and it felt nice!

Finally, there was a shower available to warm up my body, which was the best!

I definitely want to go back once the warm season arrives!

年明け暖かい石垣に！

島観光を回してから、スポーツを予約してみました！最初は海がまだ寒いかなと心配してたが、マングローブのsupをおすすめしていただいて、初心者でも、安心に漕げました！ガイドのまこちゃん丁寧に教えていただき、波も安定で、全然水に落ちる心配がなかったのです！

それから！午後からシュノーケルに向かって、水に入った瞬間、あ、寒ーと思ってたけど、すぐ綺麗な海下の世界に冒頭し、楽しかったです！

水から出てきて、一瞬寒かったけど、車の暖房をガンガン効いて、気持ちよかった！

最後、シャワーも付いて、体を温めて、最高でした！

暖かい季節になってから、ぜひまた行きたいです！

I was grateful for the hotel pick-up since I didn't have a rental car for this trip. It was nice to have a lunch break at the island terminal and be able to stroll around. I was disappointed that we couldn't go to the Blue Cave, but instead, we landed on the Phantom Island and had a great time snorkeling and seeing many beautiful fish. I got so captivated by the fish that I ended up following them a bit too closely and sometimes lagged behind, but the staff took care of me until the end. I think it would have been even better if there had been a little more time to swim freely.

I also really enjoyed the mangrove kayaking in the afternoon. It was my first experience walking through the mangrove forest after getting off the kayak, which was a bit exciting. The kayak was stable, and I was able to relax. The guide was very fun and taught us a lot, making for a wonderful day.

While my usual trips focus on sightseeing, experiences like this have become great memories, and I'm glad I participated.

今回の旅行はレンタカーなしだったのでホテルまで送迎していただけて助かりました。また離島ターミナルでお昼休憩があり、ぷらぷら散策ができて良かったです。ツアーは青の洞窟が行けなかったのが残念ですが、代わりの幻の島上陸とシュノーケルできれいな魚たちが沢山見ることが出来楽しい時間を過ごせました。魚に見惚れてつい後をついていってしまい、ときどきおくれがちになってしまいましたが最後まで面倒をみてもらいました。自由に泳げる時間が少しでもあるとより良かったかなーと思います。
午後からのマングローブカヤックもとても楽しめました。カヤックから降りてマングローブの森の中を歩くのも初めての経験でちょっとワクワクしました。カヤックは安定感があり、のんびりと過ごせました。ガイドさんもとても楽しく色々教えてくださり楽しい一日を過ごせ良かったです。
いつもの旅行は観光が中心ですが、このような体験もとても良い思い出になり、参加して良かったです。

This is a half-day tour around the attractions of Ishigaki Island. Although it says "a complete circuit," it does not go to the northern tip of the island. However, it covers key spots such as the glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay and the Tamatorizaki Observatory, and lunch is included. Considering the travel time to the airport in the afternoon and making effective use of the morning, this is a convenient tour that operates daily.

石垣島の名所を半日で回るツアーです。
「一周」とありますが、島の北端までは行きません。ただ、川平湾のグラスボートや玉取崎展望台など要所は押さえており、昼食も付いています。
午後の飛行機に合わせ空港までの移動時間と午前の時間の有効活用を考えると毎日催行しているので便利なツアーです。

The snorkeling had high visibility, allowing us to see plenty of coral and fish, and the SUP was taught with great care, making it a very satisfying tour! Even in winter, the water temperature was warm, and wearing a wetsuit kept us comfortable; the kids enjoyed it as well. The staff were very friendly and kind to the children. Since it was windy, it would have been nice to have a windbreaker over our swimsuits during the SUP. I would love to participate again!

シュノーケリングは透明度が高く珊瑚や魚を沢山見ることができ、SUPも丁寧に教えてくださり大満足のツアーでした！冬でも水温は高く、ウェットスーツを着れば寒くなく、子供も楽しんでいました。スタッフの方もとてもフレンドリーで子供にも優しいです。風が強かったので、SUPの時は水着の上にウィンドブレーカーがあると良かったです。また参加したいです！

I have visited the main island many times, but this was my first time using this service. They took us to places we wouldn't have gone on our own, and I think we would have been too tired to return if we had gone by ourselves... The experience was so engaging and enjoyable!

本島には何度も来ていますが初めて利用しました。自分たちだけなら行かないような場所へ連れて行ってくれ、自分たちだけならとっくに疲れて帰ってるはず…と思うほどアグレッシブな内容で十分に楽しめますよ！

The veteran bus guide kept us entertained during the ride. I've been to Okinawa more than five times, but I found myself captivated, even turning off the music in my headphones to listen. Although the weather was rainy, I think it was a great deal to visit the famous spots at a low price. It was wonderful.

ベテランのバスガイドさんで、車中も退屈しませんでした。沖縄には、5回以上来てますが、知らなかったことなど、思わず、イヤホンの音楽を切り、聞入りました。
天気は、雨でしたが、名所を低価格で回れて、お得だと思います。良かったです。

During our first trip to Okinawa, we were able to visit all the popular spots we wanted to see, and we had a fun day filled with highlights. However, I think we need to reconsider the amount of time spent at each location. For example, it seemed we had too much time at Nago Pineapple Park. Overall, it was a tour where we could take our time and enjoy the sights. The bus guide's explanations were easy to understand and very interesting. Also, we were surprised to have a light snack (sandwich) included! Thank you very much.

はじめての沖縄観光で、私たちが行きたい人気スポットが網羅してあり、（見どころ満載）楽しい一日を過ごすことができました。ただ、各所の滞在時間については一考を要するかと思われます。一例としては、名護パイナップルパークについて時間が余ってしまったようです。
ただ、全体としてゆっくりと過ごせ、楽しく見学できたツアーでした。
バスガイドさんの説明もわかりやすく興味深く聞くことができました。
また、軽食（サンドウィッチ）がついていて、びっくり！！
ありがとうございました。

We participated in our first Okinawa activity as a couple. We signed up for this highly-rated tour. The day before, I received a call from Pipi confirming the meeting place and time, checking our shoe sizes and heights, and going over some important notes and the schedule. In the morning, we were advised to wear swimsuits, and since we would break for lunch, we needed to bring lunch money. The plan included snorkeling at the Blue Cave in the morning and kayaking at Kabira Bay in the afternoon. Since it was winter, we wore wetsuits for snorkeling. Although we got quite wet, a layer of warm water formed between our skin and the suit, allowing us to swim without shivering. The path to the beach was a wild, tropical route that offered a bit of adventure. The snorkeling was fantastic, and the cave itself was truly beautiful. The way the light came in and the view of the sea gave it a secret base feel.

After the activity, we took off our wetsuits and were able to rinse our hands and feet with warm water that was provided. We were transported almost in our swimsuits to the city center, but the heating was on, so we weren't cold. Before the afternoon meeting, we returned to our hotel, took a shower, and had a meal at a deli recommended by our guide.

In the afternoon, we were taken to the farthest point of Kabira Bay for our canoe experience. Since the canoe can get wet, it's good to wear swimsuits or rash guards. After receiving a briefing, even beginners could easily paddle and turn. The people on the SUP course were also enjoying themselves while standing and paddling, and we felt a sense of satisfaction from paddling quite a distance. We were able to experience the beautiful Kabira Bay, where the color changes with the depth, and we even saw a bit of sunshine. The guide was very friendly both in the morning and afternoon, introducing us to recommended shops and engaging with the children. I hope to request this experience again when I can visit Ishigaki Island under a blue sky!

初めての沖縄アクティビティ夫婦で参加です。口コミ評価が高いこのツアーを申し込みました。前日にpipiさんから電話があり集合場所と時刻、足と身長の確認、諸注意とスケジュールの確認があります。朝の時点でインナーは水着、昼食時は一旦解散するので昼食代が必要。また、午前に青の洞窟シュノーケリング、午後に川平湾カヌーと予定が入れ替わるという内容でした。シュノーケリングは冬場なのでウエットスーツを着用。中までしっかり濡れますが､ 肌とスーツの間に温かい水の層ができ、震えることなく泳ぐことが出来ました。浜まで南国感いっぱいなワイルドな道がありちょっとした冒険が楽しめます。 シュノーケル中はもちろん、洞窟が本当に素敵でした。 光の入り方や海の見え方が秘密基地感たっぷりです。

アクティビティ後はウエットスーツを脱ぎ、用意してくだ さったお湯で軽く手足を流せます。そのままほぼ水着で 市街地まで送迎ですが、 暖房も入れて頂き寒くはありま せんでした。午後の集合まで私達は一旦ホテルに戻り、 シャワーを浴びてガイドさんおすすめのデリで食事をし ました。

午後は川平湾の一番奥まったところまで送迎していただ き､カヌー体験です。カヌーも濡れるので、水着やラッシ ュガードを着ると良いです。レクチャーを受け初心者でも 簡単に漕いで曲がることが出来ます。SUPコースの方たち も皆立ち漕ぎで楽しんでいましたかなりの距離を漕げ るので満足感があります。少し晴れ間も見え、深さで色が変わる綺麗な川平湾を体感できました。ガイドの方は午前午後とも､とても気さくでおすすめのお店を紹介していただいたり、子どもたちと盛り上がったりとフレンドリーです。今度、青空の石垣島に来ることができた際はお願いしたいです!

First, they took our temperature, wearing masks was mandatory, we had to use hand sanitizer before boarding, and we were asked to be quiet on the bus as part of the infection control measures. There were more participants than I expected. We had a good amount of time at Churaumi, and the guide informed us that the Kanhi Zakura were blooming, allowing us to take pictures at the Okashi Goten. Although the weather was not great and it was cold at the end of the year, we were fortunate to have clear skies on the day of our tour, and Kouri Island was beautiful. Traveling alone, moving to the northern part by rental car can be quite tough, so the bus tour was very helpful. Thank you very much.

最初に検温、マスク着用必須、乗車前にはアルコール消毒、車内では静かになど感染症対策をしっかりしていました。
思っていたより参加者が多かったですね。
美ら海滞在時間もしっかりあったし、ガイドさんからカンヒザクラが咲いているのを教えていただいて、御菓子御殿のところで写真を撮せました。
今年の年末は天気ぐすぐれず寒かったですが、たまたま参加した日は晴天に恵まれて、古宇利島も綺麗でした。
ひとりだとレンタカーで北部移動はなかなかしんどいので、バスツアーはありがたいです。
ありがとうございました。

I was picked up at the hotel on time. The accompanying guide was very cheerful and had a great sense of humor. I could really feel their pride in Okinawa.

I took a lot of photos at Manza Beach. The 30 minutes there felt a bit short. There is a 100 yen entrance fee to see Manza Beach.

Nago Pineapple Park was surprisingly fun. I love taking pictures of flowers, and there were many interesting and beautiful ones. There were also lots of cute, colorful shisa. Additionally, the animatronic dinosaurs were entertaining. I think the owner invested quite a bit of money into building the park.

The only place that left me wondering "Why?" was Kouri Island. After crossing the famous bridge, we waited for 30 minutes at what seemed like a mere souvenir shop. Although Kouri Island is often said to be beautiful, I didn't see any of that beauty.

The Churaumi Aquarium is located within the Ocean Expo Park. The aquarium was somewhat interesting but small. The whale shark was truly impressive. I wanted to visit the Tropical Dream Center in the park, but there wasn't enough time.

Finally, we went to the souvenir shop, Okashi Goten. The selection is really abundant. I don't think you'd regret buying all your travel souvenirs there.

時間通りにホテルにピックアップされました。同行ガイドさんがとても明るくて冗談が上手な方でした。沖縄に対しての誇りがよく分かりました。

万座毛に写真をよく撮りました。３０分がちょっと短かったです。万座毛を見るには100円の入園料が必要です。

ナゴパイナップルパークは意外と楽しかったです。花の写真を取るのがすきで、色んな面白い、綺麗な花がありました。キッチなカラフルなシーサが沢山ありました。あとは、アニマトロニクスの恐竜が面白かった。オーナーさんがパーク建設に結構のお金を入れたと思う。

唯一「ここ、何故？」のところは古宇利島でした。有名な橋を渡って、たかが売店みたいなところで３０分待機。古宇利島は綺麗綺麗とよく言われましたか、綺麗なところ一切見なかった。

美ら海水族館が海洋博公園の中にあります。水族館はそれなりに面白かったが、小さいです。ジンベイザメがとても圧倒的でした。公園内の熱帯ドリームセンターに行きたかったが時間がなかった。

最後に、お土産店の御菓子御殿に行きました。本当にセレクションが豊富です。ここで旅の土産を全部買っても損しないと思う。

Okinawa is a place I love and have visited over 20 times. This time, since it was a short trip without renting a car, I wanted to make the most of my time, so I decided to try a bus tour for the first time. I looked for various tours that I could take from my accommodation in Chatan and chose Beltora. On the day of the tour, it departed from near my hotel, which was convenient! They ensured proper ventilation and hand sanitization, so I felt reassured. The charm of the bus tour is the guide's commentary during the ride, and I enjoyed hearing stories about Okinawa that I wouldn't have learned while driving a rental car. I found myself saying, "Oh, really?!" the whole time.

What I particularly appreciated was the time allocation at each spot. I was able to enjoy everything without feeling rushed at the meeting times. At the Churaumi Aquarium, I had nearly two hours, so I enjoyed the dolphin show, the outdoor manatee exhibit, and the seaside promenade. Since I've been to the Churaumi Aquarium quite a few times, I explored the surrounding area as well. For first-time visitors, it might be nice to spend time just at the Churaumi Aquarium and relax.

There wasn't a designated lunch time, but that was actually great. I could snack on what I liked at my favorite spots, and I appreciated the freedom and relaxed vibe. While thinking about that, I was thrilled to receive a sandwich during the tour of Kouri Island. I enjoyed it leisurely while strolling around. Plus, it was delicious! I didn't realize a bus tour could be this good. I truly appreciated the experience. I'm usually a rental car person, but if I want to join a bus tour again, I would like to ask Beltora.

沖縄は20回以上訪れていて大好きな場所です。今回は、レンタカーも借りない短い旅だったので、時間を有効に使いたかった為、初めてバスの観光ツアーに申し込んでみました。宿泊地の北谷から乗れるツアーを色々探しましたが、ベルトラさんに決めました。当日は泊まっているホテル近くから出発。楽で助かりました！換気や手指消毒もしっかりしてくれていてひとまず安心。バスツアーの魅力はガイドさんの車中トークですが、レンタカー移動では聞けない沖縄のお話、楽しかったです。へぇ～、そうなんだ！とずっと聞いちゃいました。すごく良かったなと思ったのは、各スポットの時間配分。集合時間で焦ることなく、ゆったりと楽しめました。美ら海水族館では、２時間近く時間があったので、イルカのショーや、野外にあるマナティー館や、海沿いの遊歩道など堪能しました。美ら海水族館もかなりの回数来ているので、水族館だけではなく周辺を色々散策しました。初めて訪れる方は、美ら海水族館だけに時間を使って、ゆっくりと過ごすのもよいかもしれません。昼食の時間は特に設けられていませんでしたが、それも良かったです。好きなスポットで、好きなモノをつまみ食いでいますし、自由で気まま感がありがたかったです。そんなことを思っていると、古宇利島観光の際にサンドイッチをいただき感激。散策しながらのんびり食べました。しかも美味しかった！バスのツアーもこんなによいものなんですね。ほんとにお世話になりました。レンタカー派ですが、またバスツアーに参加したくなったらベルトラさんにお願いしたいと思います。

You can enjoy sightseeing from Naha to the Motobu Peninsula. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I gained new knowledge. However, it would have been nice to skip the Okashi Goten and American Village, and spend more time at the main attractions like Churaumi and Kouri Island, as well as Manzamo. Also, while it's good that someone picks you up, I would have appreciated a note saying, "We are waiting for ◯◯, so we plan to depart around ◯◯ minutes." It was a bit frustrating to be stopped for over ten minutes without knowing what was going on. I wanted to use that time effectively, like going to the restroom or buying a drink.

那覇から本部半島までの観光が楽しめます。
ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、新たな知識が増えました。
ただ、お菓子御殿やアメリカンビレッジを省略して、メインの美ら海や古宇利島、万座毛での時間を長くしてもらえると良いかな。
あと、行きに迎えに行く人がいるのは良いが、「◯◯を待っているので◯◯分ごろ出発予定です。」の一言が欲しかった。
何もわからず、ボーッと10数分停車しているのは如何なもんか。
トイレに行くとか、飲み物を買いに行くとか、時間を有効に使いたかった。

The content of the tour itself was excellent. Even when we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to strong winds, they switched to exploring the Phantom Island and kindly provided recommendations for sightseeing spots. Even in December, wearing a wetsuit, the water was a bit cold at first, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling without any issues. They also prepared warm water to keep us warm, and when I forgot my marine shoes, the guide generously lent me a pair, which I really appreciated. I was also worried about whether I could stand up on the SUP, but I had no problems at all.

ツアーそのものの内容は勿論、強風の影響で青の洞窟に行けなくなっても幻の島探索へ切り替えてくださったり、おすすめの観光スポットを教えてくださったり、丁寧にご対応頂きました。12月でもウェットスーツを着れば、水に入ってすぐは少し冷たいものの問題なくシュノーケリングを楽しめました。そこでも暖をとるために温かい水を用意してくださったり、マリンシューズを忘れたところガイドさんがご厚意で貸してくださったり、心遣いを感じました。サップも上手くできるか不安でしたが、問題なく立つことができました。

In the morning, I went snorkeling at the Blue Cave, and in the afternoon, I experienced stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). The weather was cloudy, so it wasn't the best condition, but both activities were incredibly fun! The snorkeling instructor, Nishihara, provided thorough guidance, which made me feel safe during the experience. He taught us a lot about the corals, fish, and nature, so I not only enjoyed snorkeling but also learned about the natural environment of Ishigaki Island. After coming out of the water, it was a bit cold in December, so I think it would be good to have warm clothing that can be worn over a swimsuit. For SUP, the instructor also taught us how to paddle carefully and took many photos, so even though it was my first time, I was able to enjoy it! I didn't fall into the river, and while I didn't get completely soaked, my bottom did get wet, so I think it's best to wear something that can get wet on the lower half. I would definitely like to participate again when I visit Ishigaki Island! Thank you!

午前中は青の洞窟のシュノーケリング、午後はSUPを体験しました。天気は曇りで最高のコンディションとはいきませんでしたが、どちらも最高に楽しかったです！シュノーケリングはインストラクターのニシハラさんが丁寧にレクチャーしてくれるので安心して体験することができました。珊瑚や魚、自然のことについても色々と教えてくださったのでシュノーケリングだけではなく、石垣島の自然についても知ることができ楽しかったです。海から上がった後は12月で少し寒かったので、水着の上から着られる防寒着があると良いと思いました。SUPも漕ぎ方について丁寧に教えてくださり、写真もたくさん撮ってくださったので初めてでしたが、楽しんで参加することができました！川に落ちることはなく、全身が濡れてしまうことはないのですが、お尻は濡れてしまうので、下半身は濡れても大丈夫な格好で行くと良いと思いました。石垣島にまた訪れたときにはぜひまた参加したいです！ありがとうございました！

I participated with my elementary school son. It was our first time canoeing and snorkeling, but Shoma kindly taught us, and it seemed like he had a lot of fun and was very happy! We also got many beautiful photos, which made for wonderful memories. Thank you very much. I hope to be in your care again when we visit Okinawa. Thank you!

小学生の息子と一緒に参加させて頂きました。
カヌーもシュノーケリングも初めてでしたが、ショウマさんに親切に教えて頂き、すごく楽しかったみたいで喜んでいました！
また綺麗なお写真もたくさん残して頂いて、とてもいい思い出になりました。
ありがとうございます。
また沖縄に行った際にはお世話になれたらと思います。よろしくお願いします。

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。

Thank you for your support this year as well.
I've been relying on you since last year, and it’s becoming an annual tradition.
I started snorkeling to help my child, who is afraid of water and can't put their face in it, get used to the water.
Last year was a great success; we saw many fish and had a lot of fun, so I asked this shop for snorkeling again this year.
Continuing from last year, we saw many fish, and fortunately, we even spotted a turtle in the distance!
My child is still scared of the deeper areas and can't let go of my hand, but thanks to this, they can put their face in the water. While they wouldn't do it without snorkeling, they have started to enter the water on their own and play up to their neck!
This shop offers private, exclusive experiences! Unlike others, you can enjoy it privately, so I can trust them with my child and have fun myself!
They also take a lot of photos!
On the way back, we were recommended a delicious taco rice place, making for a tasty and enjoyable Christmas Eve.
I hope to ask for your help again next year!

今年もお世話になりました。
昨年からお世話になり毎年のになりつつあります。
水が怖くて顔をつけることのできない子供をなんとか水慣れさせたく始めましたシュノーケリング。
昨年大成功で沢山魚も観れ楽しめたので、今年も同じくこのお店にお願いしてシュノーケリングをしました。
昨年に引き続き沢山の魚を見れて、幸運な事に遠くに亀も観れました！
子供はまだまだ深いところは怖くて手を離すことはできないですけどお陰で顔をつけられますし、シュノーケリングがないと顔はつけませんが自ら海の中に入り首まで浸かり遊ぶ様にはなりました！
このお店は単独、独占、貸切！他とは違い貸切で楽しめるから子供も安心して任せて自分も楽しめます！
写真も沢山撮ってくれます！
帰りのランチでタコライス美味しいお店教えてもらい美味しく楽しくクリスマスイヴでした。
また来年もお願いしたいなと思います！

It was our first experience with stand-up paddleboarding (especially with strong winds), and my wife and I participated with some nervousness.

However, our guide, Ryusei, quickly alleviated our concerns.

With his thorough and easy-to-understand lecture, along with some jokes, our tension melted away, and we were able to master SUP in no time. We enjoyed it without falling off.

He also took an abundance of photos, allowing us to create many memories. The photos were all wonderful, and we are very satisfied.

For those looking to experience SUP in Ishigaki Island or wanting to try it for the first time, I wholeheartedly recommend this tour.

初めてのSUP体験(しかも風が強い)ということもあり、妻と二人で緊張しながらも参加いたしました。

そんな私たちの不安をガイドのりゅうせいさんがすぐに払拭してくれました。

丁寧でわかりやすいレクチャーと、冗談を交えながら話してくださり、緊張はすぐにほぐれてSUPもすぐに乗りこなせるようになりました。
落ちることもなく、SUPを楽しめました,

またこれでもかというくらい写真を撮ってくださり、思い出もたくさん残せました。
素敵な写真ばかりで、大変満足しています。

石垣島でSUPを体験する方、初めてSUPに挑戦したい方はこちらのツアーを心からおすすめいたします。

I couldn't go to the Blue Cave, but they suggested an alternative tour to Balas Island and snorkeling. The conditions seemed good, and it was very beautiful.

The afternoon stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and canoeing at Kabira Bay had strong winds, and it rained a bit along the way, but it was fun. My 7-year-old wanted to try SUP, and with the help of the guide, they were able to experience it.

During the transfers, they also introduced us to recommended shops and sightseeing spots.

While the guiding was great, I was surprised when we had a break between the morning and afternoon sessions, where we just took off our wetsuits and were told to have lunch on our own before regrouping. I was informed that it was okay to enter shops in swimwear, but having gone to Iriomote the day before and seeing a notice that said, "Please do not walk in swimwear or dirty clothes, as this is a residential area," I felt quite resistant to that. Is this the norm in Ishigaki Island?

Lastly, the shower room we used at the end was helpful as it had a hairdryer.

青の洞窟は行けませんでしたが、バラス島とシュノーケリングの代替ツアーを提案していただきました。
条件が良かったようでとても綺麗でした。
午後の川平湾SUPとカヌーは風が強く、途中雨も降りましたが、楽しかったです。
7歳の子がSUPをやりたいと言い、ガイドさんに引っ張ってもらいながら体験できました。
移動中などもおすすめのお店や観光スポットを紹介していただきました。

ガイド中はよかったのですが、午前と午後の間に一度解散があり、ウェットスーツを脱いだだけで解散、各自昼食を取ってまた集合と言われてびっくりしました。
水着でもお店は入れるとのことでしたが、前日に西表に行き、「水着や汚れた格好で歩かないように、生活圏です」との注意書きを見て、その通りだと思っていたので抵抗感が強かったです。
石垣島はそういうものなのでしょうか？
最後に使ったシャワールームはドライヤーもあって助かりました。

Instead of the Blue Cave, we went to Balas Island for snorkeling, and the water clarity was incredible. The water was cold, but when the sun was out, it felt quite warm, making it enjoyable even in December. They took many photos and sent them to us via LINE on the same day. For lunch, I had a recommended hamburger, which was delicious. There was a change in the tour details the day before, and I was a bit confused about the situation regarding changing clothes and belongings, so I think I should have asked for more details over the phone.

青の洞窟ではなくバラス島とシュノーケリングになりましたが、透明度が半端なかったです。
水は冷たいですが日が差せば暑いくらいで、12月でも満喫できました。
写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、当日にLINEで送っていただきました。
お昼はおすすめのハンバーガーを食べましたが、美味しかったです。
前日にツアー内容の変更があり、途中の着替えや持ち物などの状況がちゃんとわかっていなくて戸惑ったので、電話でもう少し段取りを聞いておくべきだったと思います。

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。

First, we went snorkeling at the Blue Cave in the morning, and from the moment we got into the shuttle, the staff shared so many charms and recommendations about Ishigaki Island, making the fun begin right away. We were blessed with good weather and were able to see a beautiful sea and fish.

At the Blue Cave, we not only took photos but also enjoyed listening to stories while exploring the area, which made for a delightful time. The jumping photos turned out incredibly beautiful, and my husband was very happy with them.

In the afternoon, we did a mangrove kayak tour. The scenery and experience were many times more wonderful than we had expected. It was just us, so it felt like a private space without overlapping with other tour groups. Since the tour happened to be just for us, we were also thrilled to get a little experience with stand-up paddleboarding, which we had wanted to try. I would definitely like to use this tour again when I visit Ishigaki Island.

Above all, the staff were very friendly, cheerful, and fun, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I was especially happy that they took many more photos than I had imagined and sent them to us on the same night, which was very prompt. Thank you so much, っしーさん (I'll keep this private just in case)!!

まず午前中に青の洞窟シュノーケルに行ったのですが、送迎の車の時からたくさんの石垣島の魅力やおすすめ等お話しをしてくださり、向かう時から楽しい時間が始まりました。天気にも恵まれ、とても綺麗な海とお魚を見ることができました。
青の洞窟では写真を撮るだけでなく、またそこを回りながらお話しを聞かせて頂き、楽しい時間を過ごしました。ジャンプの写真がめちゃくちゃ綺麗で旦那もとても喜んでいました。
午後はマングローブカヤックです。こちらは期待していたより何十倍も素晴らしい景色と体験ができました。丁度他のツアーの人たちとも被らず、貸切のような空間でした。ツアーがたまたま私たちだけだったのでやってみたかったsupも少し体験させて頂けてとても嬉しかったです。このツアーは石垣島に行く際にはまた利用したいと思いました。
そして何よりスタッフさんがとても気さくで明るく楽しい方だったので非常に楽しむことができました。そしてさらに嬉しかったのが想像以上に沢山写真を撮ってくださり、しかも当日の夜には送ってくださるという迅速さ。◾️っしーさん(念のため伏せます)本当にありがとうございました！！

It was my first time stand-up paddleboarding, and I found it very easy to understand because the instructor taught me carefully. The conversations with the guide were also very enjoyable, and the ride in the car became a nice memory. I was able to see a different view compared to what I usually see in the city, and I felt healed as I forgot about the daily hustle and bustle. I would like to request this again when I come back to Ishigaki Island!

人生初のsupでしたが、丁寧に教えていただけたのでとてもわかり易かったです。ガイドさんの会話もとても楽しく送迎の車の中もいい思い出になりました。街中で見る景色とはまた違ったものが見れて日常の喧騒を忘れて癒されました気がします。また石垣島に来た時はお願いしたいと思います！

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。
