All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

It was a comfortable tour. I think the price is quite reasonable. I wondered if it would be better to choose either Manzamo or Kouri Island and increase the stay time a little at each. Unfortunately, when crossing the bridge to Kouri Island, many people closed the window curtains (because the sun was too bright), so I couldn't see the beautiful ocean. There were foreign visitors both before and after, and we couldn't communicate... I wished the guide had said something like, "Please open the curtains as we cross the bridge."

快適なツアーでした。値段もお安いと思います。　万座毛か、古宇利島、どちらかにして、全ての滞在時間を少しずつ増やした方が良いかなと思いました。残念だったのは、古宇利島の橋を渡る時、窓のカーテンを(太陽が眩しくて)閉めている人が多く、せっかくの海のきれいさが見れませんでした。前後とも外国の方で、言葉も通じず…。ガイドの方が、「橋を渡るのでカーテンを開けてください」みたいな声をかけて欲しかったです。

While I was considering going to the Churaumi Aquarium by rental car, I found a bus tour and made a reservation. It was a fulfilling course where we got on a boat to see beautiful fish, visited the Churaumi Aquarium, Fukugi Tree Lane, and American Village! I think it's worth making a reservation because it would be difficult to visit these destinations without a rental car! I made great memories on my graduation trip. ☺️

レンタカーで美ら海水族館に行くか考えていた時に、バスツアーを見つけ予約しました。船に乗って海に出て綺麗な魚見たり、美ら海水族館、フクギ並木、アメリカンビレッジと充実したコースでした！レンタカー無しで、この目的地を回るのは大変だと思うので予約する価値ありだと思います！卒業旅行でいい思い出が作れました☺️

I chose this tour because it allows me to visit both the Churaumi Aquarium and American Village.

While there is the downside of a limited time frame, I am very satisfied that I could visit many new places in a short amount of time!

We were also blessed with good weather and were able to see the sunset at American Village.

美ら海水族館、アメリカンビレッジ両方行くことができるため、このツアーを選びました。

制限時間に限りがあるデメリットもありますが、短い時間で多くの初めての場所をめぐることができとても満足です！

天気にも恵まれ、アメリカンビレッジで夕陽が沈む瞬間を見ることもできました。

When we arrived at Taketomi Port, a shuttle microbus was waiting for us right by the side. Getting onto the ox cart was smooth as well. Due to our schedule, we chose a shorter course, but we were able to enjoy the atmosphere sufficiently. Since we had some time before the return boat, we walked towards the port while exploring the town. There is also a shuttle bus service for the return trip, so I think it's reassuring for those with mobility issues.

竹富港に着くと送迎のマイクロバスが横付けで迎えに来てくれてます。
牛車乗込みまでもスムーズでした。スケジュールの関係で短めのコースを選びましたが、十分雰囲気を味わいました。帰りの船まで多少時間がとれるので、町中を散策しながら徒歩で港に向かいました。帰りも送迎バスの運行があるので、足の悪い方も安心だと思います。

All parts of the tour were great, but thanks to our guide Keiko on March 20, 2025, it became the best trip. She provided kind and detailed explanations, making it a valuable and happy day. I am grateful.

ツアー全て良かった中、2025.3.20ガイドケイコさんのおかげで、最高な旅となりました。優しく丁寧な説明などして頂き、価値が有り、幸せな一日を過ごせました。感謝致します。

I was very satisfied with how efficiently I could visit various tourist spots! I was able to see a beautiful sunset at American Village. 150 minutes at the aquarium might not be enough.

色んな観光地を効率よく回れて大満足でした！
ちょうどアメリカンビレッジで美しい夕日を見ることができました。
水族館は150分だと足りないかも。

On my first trip to Okinawa, I was torn between renting a car and joining a bus tour, but choosing the bus tour was the right decision. It took us to famous tourist spots in Okinawa, and the bus guide's stories were enjoyable. The time spent at each location was a bit short, but we were able to visit many places, which was great. If I had rented a car, someone would have had to drive, and we wouldn't have been able to relax as much, but on the bus, I could take a nap if I got tired and enjoy a more leisurely experience.

初めての沖縄で、レンタカーと迷いましたが、バスツアーをお願いして、正解でした。
沖縄の有名な観光地に連れて行ってくれるし、バスガイドさんのお話も楽しかったです。
1カ所ずつの時間は短めだけど、その分沢山の場所を回れたので、良かったです。
レンタカーだと誰かが運転して、ゆっくりできないですが、バスなら疲れたら眠ったりもできて、ゆったりと過ごせました。

The water buffalo named Aapa took nearly 20 people on a tour of Taketomi Island. The guide's stories and the performance of the sanshin were great too! ☺

水牛のアーパーくん、20人近くを乗せて、竹富島を案内してくれました。ガイドさんのお話、三線の弾き語りもよかったです☺

The weather was nice, and the Iriomote Island cruise, along with the water buffalo to Yufu Island, was a smooth tour with no waiting time at all! The lunch was delicious. I definitely recommend it!

天気もよく、西表島クルーズ、水牛〜由布島
待ち時間もなく、全てスムーズなツアーでした！
お弁当も美味しかった
絶対オススメです！

The weather was nice, and I was able to efficiently cover the highlights while having a great time. The guide was very enjoyable, providing detailed explanations and attentive service, which was excellent. It became a wonderful memory.

お天気も良く、とても効率的に見どころをおさえて、楽しく参加させて頂けました。ガイドさんは、とても楽しく、詳しい説明と丁寧な対応でとても良かったです。良い思い出になりました。

The guide was very polite and provided detailed explanations, and we were blessed with good weather, which made the experience very enjoyable. We toured the island and had a fulfilling day filled with highlights.

ガイドさんがとても、丁寧で詳しい説明をして下さり、お天気にも恵まれとても楽しむことが出来ました。島を巡り、充実した1日を過ごすことが出来、見どころ満載でした。

Even though the weather wasn't very good, it was an enjoyable course, and the guide's explanations were very easy to understand, making it much more educational than exploring on our own! If I had to be picky, I would have preferred a tour of American Village, but since we signed up at the last minute, we ended up at Pineapple Park! However, that was fun in its own way!

天気があまり良くなくても楽しめるコースで、ガイドさんの説明がとてもわかりやすくて自分たちだけで回るよりも勉強になることが多かったです！欲を言えばアメリカンビレッジのツアーがよかったんですけど、私たちは直前に申し込んだため、パイナップルパークの方になりました！でもそれはそれで楽しかったです！

I signed up for a tour on the afternoon of the day I arrived. I took a direct bus from the airport to the terminal, where I was able to check my luggage, and on the way back, I was taken to my hotel. Unfortunately, it was a day with light rain, but I enjoyed my experience on Taketomi Island enough for my first visit. If I go again, I would like to take my time sightseeing more.

着いた日の午後のツアーに申し込みました。空港からバスで直行ターミナルに直行し、荷物を預かってもらい、帰りはホテルまで送ってもらえました。
あいにく小雨がぱらつく日でしたが、初めての竹富島での体験としては十分楽しめました。次回行くことがあれば、もっとゆっくり観光したいと思います。

It was painful to hear the guide continuously express resentment about the good parts of Okinawa being taken away due to the barbed wire around the U.S. military base.

It was disappointing that the main aquarium was last on the itinerary, and perhaps due to traffic, we lost time. I wish we could have visited the aquarium first and saved the other souvenir shops for later.

ガイドの人が　米軍基地のことを　鉄条網がある　沖縄のいいところが取られてると
恨み節が永遠とつづいたのが　苦痛でした。　

メインの水族館が最後になり　渋滞のせいか時間が削られたの残念でした
水族館を先にいって　他の土産さんは　後回しを望みます。　

I will provide a compact guide to the main tourist attractions in Ishigaki Island. The lunch was delicious as well. The rice was a bit hard, but I thought maybe this is normal in Ishigaki Island?

石垣島の主要な観光地をコンパクトに案内してくれます。ランチも美味しかったです。ご飯が少し硬かったけど石垣島ではこのくらいが普通なのかな？と思いました。

I thoroughly enjoyed the Churaumi Aquarium for two and a half hours. I also had squid ink pasta at a café with a view of the large tank with whale sharks. I recommend adding lobster to the optional steak dinner.

美ら海水族館は２時間半と堪能できました。ジンベイサメのいる大水槽が見えるカフェでイカスミパスタも食べました。オプションのステーキディナーはオプションでロブスターをつけるのがおすすめです。

First, we took a 45-minute boat ride from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island. Upon arriving on the island, the untouched nature created a unique atmosphere that was unlike Ishigaki Island. From the ferry terminal, we headed to Yubu Island. We rode the famous water buffalo cart to cross from Iriomote Island. Being pulled by the water buffalo through the shallow sea was a slow and scenic experience. Of course, the views were spectacular!

On Yubu Island, we were served lunch and enjoyed delicious local cuisine. After lunch, we returned to Iriomote Island for a mangrove cruise on the Nakama River. The cruise, surrounded by nature that you can't experience on the mainland, was very refreshing. The boat then took us back to the ferry terminal, and next, we moved on to Taketomi Island.

Taketomi Island was also enveloped in a relaxed atmosphere, making it feel like a waste to just do a day trip. I found myself wishing to stay longer while freely exploring the island.

There are about three to four boats from Taketomi Island to Ishigaki Island, so it was convenient to catch a boat at a suitable time. I visited Taketomi Island on a Saturday, but many shops were closed (either for the day or due to early closing hours), so it was a bit of a relief to return to Ishigaki Island a little earlier.

Overall, I returned to Ishigaki Island feeling very satisfied. Depending on the boat schedule, you can leave around 8 AM and return by around 5 PM, which isn’t too early or too late, making it manageable for your body. If you can spare a day, I highly recommend it!

先ずは石垣本島から船で45分くらいの西表島へ。
島に着くと石垣島とはまた違う、自然がそのままの状態で残っており何とも言えない雰囲気。
フェリーターミナルからは由布島へ。名物の水牛車に乗って西表島から渡ります。
遠浅の海の中を水牛に引かれてゆっくりと進んでいきます。もちろんここは絶景！
由布島では昼食が提供され、美味しい郷土料理を食せました。
昼食後は再び西表島に戻り、仲間川でのマングローブクルーズへ。本州では味わえない大自然を感じながらのクルーズは気持ちよかったです。
船はそのままフェリーターミナルへ。次は竹富島に移動です。

竹富島もノンビリした雰囲気に包まれており、日帰りしてしまうのがもったいないほど。ここでゆっくり泊まりたいなと思いながら、島内を自由に散策できました。

竹富島から石垣島への船は３～４本の内の、都合のいい時間の船に乗れればいいので、この点も良かったです。竹富島には土曜日に訪問したのですが、休みのお店(休みとか時間的な営業終了)が多かったので、早めに船で石垣島に戻れてちょっと助かりました。

でも総じて大変満足な気分で石垣島に帰ってきました。朝８時頃から船にもよりますが、１７時頃まで、朝早過ぎず帰りも遅過ぎずで身体の負担もそれ程無かったので、１日分の時間が取れるようでしたらオススメいたします。

The staff's guidance was kind and polite, and the conversation was enjoyable. Everything was well organized, with no wasted time, making it a very enjoyable experience. I would like to go again someday.

スタッフの案内も親切丁寧で話しも楽しく、良く段取りされていて無駄もなくとても楽しめました。またいつか行きたいと思います。

I'm busy going around to various places. The aquarium is the busiest time, so I recommend the less crowded Tropical Dream Center. It took a lot of time because I went through hotels in Chatan and Onna Village on the way back.

色々まわるので忙しい。
水族館は一番混雑する時間なので空いてる熱帯ドリームセンターがおすすめ。
帰りに北谷と恩納村のホテルを経由したので凄く時間がかかった。

The water buffalo was calm, gentle, serious, and endearing.
Lunch was ordinary, but overall, the process was smooth.

水牛🐃が
穏やかでおとなしく真面目で
愛しくなりました
昼食は普通でしたが
全般にスムーズな工程でした

I was glad to meet the whale shark at the Churaumi Aquarium. The Emerald Beach was also quiet and relaxing. I didn't have high expectations for Pineapple Park, but I ended up having a lot of fun riding around the park in a pineapple cart! I also got to see dinosaurs, and the paid wine tasting was great; the shikwasa wine was delicious!

美ら海水族館は、じんべいに会えて良かったです。また、エメラルドビーチも静かで安らぎました🎵
期待していなかったパイナップルパークですが、パイナップルのカートで園内をまわるのですが、以外と気持ちがはしゃぎました‼️恐竜にも会えましたし、有料のワインのみ比べ、シークワーサーのワインが美味しかったです😃💕

I had a great time efficiently exploring the islands. The bus driver's stories during the journey were particularly entertaining and fantastic! I highly recommend it for its reasonable prices.

効率よく島巡りもできとても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
特に移動時のバスの運転手さんのお話が面白くて最高でした～
良心的な価格でおすすめです

The guide, who was knowledgeable about the history and information of Okinawa, shared stories while incorporating songs. I felt like I gained a lot of insights. With a well-balanced schedule, we spent the whole day exploring, and I think this price is a great deal. The driver was also very friendly and accommodating, and I appreciated their help.

沖縄の歴史や情報に詳しいガイドさんが、歌などもまじえつつ、ずっとお話しして下さいました。色々わかって得した気分。程よい時間配分で、丸一日まわって、このお値段はお得だと思います
運転手さんにも、ニコニコと融通をきかせて下さりお世話になりました。

Asumi Spiritual involves quite a bit of walking on rocky mountains, so I think it's pretty tough. Plus, going around everything is a race against time. Even for someone like me who enjoys visiting historical sites and is used to mountain climbing, I found myself cutting it close to the meeting time while taking photos and videos.

It would be great if there were options for those who stay here and those who go to Yanbaru. For those staying, if they could be picked up on the way back from Yanbaru, I think even those without much stamina could manage.

Asumi スピリチュアルは岩山をかなり歩くので結構タフだと思います。
かつ全て回るのは時間との戦い
史跡周りが好きで岩山登山に慣れてる私でも写真、動画撮ってたら集合時間ギリギリ

ここに残る人と、ヤンバルに行かれる人の選択のオプションもあればなお⭕️
ここに残る方はヤンバルからの帰りにピックアップしてもらえれば体力のない方でも回れるのでは？

This was my first time participating in this tour. The tour guide was kind. Also, the staff at the Yanbaru Kuina facility provided clear and interesting explanations.

今回
初めてこのツアーに参加しました。
添乗員さんが親切でした
また
ヤンバルクイナの施設の案内係りの方もわかりやすくて面白い説明でした。

I had a great time. It was a full day with a relaxed schedule. The mangroves, water buffalo, and island tour were fulfilling. I recommend it!

満喫しました　余裕あるスケジュールで一日満喫でした　マングローブ、水牛、離島ツアー充実してます　おすすめです

The course with a steak dinner was a meager steak dinner. With 5,000 yen, there are plenty of delicious meat restaurants on International Street.

ステーキディナー付きコース、貧素なステーキディナーでした。5000円あれば国際どうりで肉料理店美味しい店いっぱいある。

Since it was the New Year after the end of COVID-19, the tour was busy due to the large number of people. We participated this time with three generations because the last time was so enjoyable, but unlike before, our stay on Yufu Island was too short, and we couldn't explore the island leisurely at all. The lunch break was also too short.

コロナ明け年始という事もあり
大勢いた為ツアーが忙しかった。
前回が楽しかったので今回は3世代で参加しましたが前と違って由布島の滞在が短すぎて全然島内をゆっくり回れませんでした。お昼ご飯の時間も短すぎでした。

I visited Iriomote Island for the first time. I was able to explore efficiently in a short amount of time. The mangroves were high due to the tide, so I couldn't see much of them. The weather was cloudy, so it was disappointing not to see the beautiful sea of Iriomote Island.

The water buffalo cart was fun, different from Taketomi Island. The sanshin and singing were quite lovely as well. Lunch was just normally delicious. Yubu Island was more enjoyable than I had imagined.

Since there was no staff accompanying the tour, I had to wander around each time to find out which boat to transfer to after getting off the ship, which bus to take, and where to line up for the water buffalo ride, constantly asking anyone who looked like a staff member.

Since there were other tours as well, I was guided to different dining locations, which I understand, but I did feel a bit of inefficiency. Overall, I was satisfied.

初めて西表島を訪問しました。短い時間で効率良く回る事が出来ました。
マングローブは満潮で水位が高くあまり見れませんでした。お天気も曇りだったので、せっかくの西表島のキレイな海が見れず残念。
水牛車は竹富島とまた違って楽しかったです。三線と歌もなかなか素敵でした。
お昼ご飯も普通に美味しかったです。由布島は想像以上に楽しかったです。
ツアーに同行する係員がいないので、船を降りてからどのボートに乗り換えるのか、バスはどれに乗るのか、水牛に乗るにはどこに並ぶのか、毎回ウロウロして係員らしき人を見つけては聞きまくりました。
他のツアーも一緒なので、食事場所も別の所に案内されたり、仕方ないとは思いますが、ちょっと効率の悪さを感じました。
全体的には満足です。

We gathered at the bus terminal near the remote island bus terminal in the morning, and the guide shared a lot of interesting information during the ride, which was very helpful. We will return to the bus terminal after 2 PM, so if the weather and our stamina allow, we can visit nearby islands like Kohama Island. It's great because many of the sightseeing spots are difficult to access without a car.

朝に離島バスターミナル近くのバスターミナルに集合、ガイドが車中も色々話をしてくれてとても参考になります。14時過ぎにはバスターミナルに戻るので体力と天候が許せば小浜島など離島への観光、移動ができます。車が運転できないと観光しづらいところばかりなのでありがたいです。
