The local staff involved in this tour were very kind, and I was able to spend a wonderful day with my elderly mother.

Exploring by rental bicycle, this is my second time, and it's great to be able to go at my own pace and cover every corner of the island. Time flows slowly here.
レンタサイクルでの散策、今回で2回目ですが、自分のペースで島の隅々まで回れるのが良いですね。時間がゆっくり流れています。

I considered a plan to go individually, but the connections between the ferry and bus just didn't work out well... In the end, I signed up for this tour.
On the day of the tour, the weather was bad with rain on and off from the morning, but since the plan involved a lot of traveling by vehicle, it turned out to be comfortable for sightseeing even with kids. The hotel pick-up was very helpful.
【Iriomote Island】
It takes about an hour from Ishigaki Port to Ohara Port on Iriomote Island. The ferry is large and didn't sway as much as I expected, so I felt safe riding it. There are restrooms on board as well.
There are restrooms at Ohara Port too, but there are few of them and they can get crowded, so I recommend using the restroom on the ferry.
Upon arriving at Ohara Port, we immediately transferred to a boat for a mangrove cruise. We went upstream and then back downstream for about an hour. Everything we saw was fascinating, and the time flew by☆
【Yufu Island】
After getting off the boat, a sightseeing bus was waiting, and we departed right away. The bus driver also served as a guide, sharing stories to keep us entertained during the ride.
In about 20 minutes, we arrived at the water buffalo cart boarding area on Yufu Island. We rode the water buffalo cart to cross over to Yufu Island. It was a unique experience, and the kids were thrilled.
We arrived at Yufu Island! Here, we finally had the chance to use the restroom. If you need to go, be cautious as the restrooms are limited. We had lunch prepared at the restaurant, and then we had some free time. We had about an hour and a half on the island, but with kids, that time goes by quickly. Personally, I recommend the butterfly garden. It was my first time seeing so many swallowtail butterflies flying around. (Of course, there are caterpillars too, so be cautious if you're not a fan.) As we strolled around the island, before we knew it, it was time to gather again. We rode the water buffalo cart back as well. On the return bus, both parents and kids were fast asleep. After getting off the bus, we boarded the ferry heading to Taketomi Island.
【Taketomi Island】
We arrived at Taketomi Island in about 40 minutes. Once we arrived, the itinerary split according to the plan. Our family had the 'bus + glass-bottom boat' plan, so we took the bus to various spots around the island.
First, we went to Kaiji Beach, famous for its star sand. We had 15 minutes of free time here. We stuck sand to our palms and searched for star sand with the kids. In the end, we found two beautiful pieces☆ The kids were overjoyed.
Next, we headed to the village. We also had about 15 minutes of free time here. Honestly, we couldn't take our time sightseeing. We just soaked in the atmosphere. We managed to have some soft serve ice cream.
While moving by bus, we admired Kondoi Beach and headed to the glass-bottom boat boarding area. Due to the rain, the water clarity wasn't as good as on sunny days, but the boat captain helped us find spots where we could see fish, and we were able to show the kids the swimming fish. There were clownfish among the coral reefs, and the kids were delighted☆
At 4 PM, we boarded the ferry and returned to Ishigaki Port.
It was a whirlwind tour, but I don't think I could have covered this much on my own, so I'm glad I participated. Since it was my second time on Taketomi Island, it was within my tolerance, but I would like to explore it more leisurely on another day.
個人で行くプランも考えましたが、船やバスの乗り継ぎがどうしてもうまくあわず…。最終的にこちらのツアーを申し込みました。
当日は朝から雨が降ったり止んだりの悪天候でしたが、乗り物に乗ってひたすら移動のプランだったので、子連れでも快適に観光できて結果的に良かったです。ホテルまで送迎有りで、とても助かりました。
【西表島】
石垣港から西表島の大原港まで約１時間。フェリーは大きく、揺れも思ったより無くて安心して乗れました。トイレも付いています。
大原港にもトイレは有りますが、数が少なく混雑するのでフェリーの中で済ませておくことをオススメします。
大原港に着くと、そのままボートに乗りかえてマングローブクルーズへ。
下流から上流へむかい、また下流に戻ってきて約１時間。
見る景色全てが物珍しく、あっという間でした☆
【由布島】
ボートを降りた先には観光バスが待ち構えていて、即出発。
バスの運転手さんがガイドも兼ねていて、道中退屈しないようお話をしてくれます。
20分程で由布島水牛車乗り場に到着。
水牛車に乗って、由布島へ渡ります。
中々ない体験に、子どもは大喜び。
由布島に到着！
ここでやっとトイレに行くことができます。トイレが近いかたは要注意。
レストランで用意されていた昼食を取り、その後は自由時間です。
島では１時間半程時間がありますが、子連れだとけっこうあっという間です。
個人的にはチョウ園オススメ。アゲハチョウがあんなに飛んでいるところを初めてみました。
（もちろん幼虫もいるので、苦手な方は要注意）
島内ぶらぶらしていると、あっという間に集合時間です。
帰りももちろん牛車に乗って戻ります。
帰りの観光バスでは親も子も爆睡でした。
バスを降り、フェリーに乗って、竹富島を目指します。
【竹富島】
40分程で竹富島へ到着。
竹富島に着いてからは、プランにのって行程がわかれます。
我が家は『バス＋グラスボート』のプランだったため、バスに乗って島のあちこちに連れて行ってもらいました。
まず星砂で有名なカイジ浜へ。
ここでの自由時間、15分。
掌に砂をくっつけ、子どもと一緒に星砂を探しました。
結果、みごと２個発見☆子どもも大喜び。
次は集落へ。
ここでの自由時間も15分程。
正直、ゆっくり観光はできません。
雰囲気を味わう程度。
ソフトクリームくらいは食べれました。
バスで移動しながらコンドイビーチを眺め、グラスボート乗り場へ。
雨天のため、晴天時に比べると海の透明度はイマイチでしたが、船頭さんが魚が見えそうなスポットを探してくれて無事魚が泳ぐ姿を子どもに見せることができました。
サンゴ礁の中にカクレクマノミがいたり、子どもも喜んでいました☆
16時 フェリーに乗って、石垣港に寄港
駆け足で巡ったツアーでしたが、個人で行くとここまでは回れないと思うので、参加して良かったです。
竹富島は２度目だったのでまぁ許容範囲でしたが、また別日にゆっくりまわりたいなと思いました。

Since I was participating alone and there were no other participants at the same time, I was asked to change the time on the day of the tour. It was good that I had some extra time, but… these things can happen. The tour itself was enjoyable, but the waiting time was tough.
一人での参加で、同じ時刻の参加者がほかにいなかったため、当日に時間変更をお願いされました。時間に余裕があったからよかったけど…こういう事もあるんですね。ツアー自体は楽しかったけど、待ち時間が発生したのが辛かった。

Unfortunately, it rained, but while we were on the water buffalo cart, we didn't get particularly wet and enjoyed exploring Taketomi Island. The water buffalo cart ride lasted about 25 minutes, and since we took the 4 PM ferry back, we had about an hour left. We walked to Kondoi Beach, taking advantage of the lighter rain. It took us just under 20 minutes one way, and it would have been a nice walk if the weather had been better.
残念ながら、雨でしたが水牛車に乗ってる間は特に濡れる事もなく、竹富島散策を楽しめました。
水牛車は25分ほど、帰りは16時の船にしたので残り1時間ほど、小降りになった合間を縫いつつコンドイビーチまで歩きで行ってきました。歩いて片道20分弱、もっと気候が良ければいい散歩になった事でしょう。

I went directly to the meeting point at Ishigaki Port, but there was no VERTAR sign, so it was a bit difficult to find! Other than that, it was a satisfying tour! The guide's island song was wonderful, and Yuichi the water buffalo who took us to Yubu Island was great, as well as Shinn the water buffalo from Taketomi Island and Sugimoto-san's island song! Thank you to Yoshida from the glass-bottom boat for showing us the underwater sights for the entire time! Regarding the water buffalo cart photos, it would have been better if I could have switched places with someone in the front row on the opposite side since I was in the back! I bought a photo, but it was a bit small, which was disappointing! Overall, it was a fun trip!
直接石垣港の集合場所に行ったのですが、VERTARの印がなかったので、わかりづらかったです！
あとは満足のツアーでした！ガイドさんの島唄も素敵でしたし由布島へ渡る水牛のユウイチくんも竹富島の水牛のシンくんと杉本さんの島唄も素敵でした！
グラスボートの吉田さんも時間いっぱい水中を見せて下さりありがとうございました！水牛車の写真ですが後ろだったので反対側の前列の人と代わってもらえれば最と良かったと思います！買ったのですが小さかったのが残念でした！あとは楽しい旅でした！

I spent the whole day riding on a boat and a water buffalo cart. You can ride the water buffalo cart twice, once on Yufu Island and once on Taketomi Island, but I highly recommend it on Taketomi Island because you can tour the island while riding the water buffalo cart. If you want to explore Taketomi Island more, I think choosing cycling would be a good option.
船や水牛車に一日中乗っていました。水牛車は、由布島と竹富島で2回乗れますが竹富島では、島を水牛車に乗りながら巡れるので非常におすすめです。竹富島めぐりをもっとしたい方は、サイクリングを選ばれるといいと思います。

The weather was very nice, and the scenery was just like a painting. The female guide on the mangrove boat at Nakama River had a bright voice that was very easy to listen to. Also, the guide on the ox cart to Yufuin was interesting to talk to. I received help from various people here and there.
天気が非常に良く、まさに絵に描いた様な景色でした。
仲間川のマングローブ船の女性ガイドさんも声が明るくてとても聞き易かったです。また、由布島への牛車のガイドさんも話が面白かった。
あっちこっちで色んな人に、お世話になりました。
Translated by OpenAI
I was unsure whether to visit four islands or three, but since it was my first time, I decided not to be too greedy and participated in this one.
As a result, it was very good! Unfortunately, the mangrove cruise was affected by heavy rain, but the guide's stories were interesting, so it was still enjoyable.
The water buffalo cart was very cute, and you can take photos and videos, so I definitely recommend it. The buffalo have their own personalities, which is amusing. Although I couldn't explore the Yufu Island botanical garden slowly due to the rain, I was able to see flowers and plants that are unimaginable in February.
Taketomi Island was clear and very fulfilling. I cycled around the island using a rental bike, and since you can freely see various sights, I recommend renting a bike over the water buffalo cart for Taketomi Island. (You can ride the water buffalo cart on Yufu Island!) Taketomi Island is more rustic and has beautiful seas compared to Ishigaki Island, so for first-timers, I recommend the island-hopping tour, and if you find an island you like, you can explore it on your own.
４島が３島かで迷いましたが
初めてだったのであまり欲張らずこちらに参加しました。
結果、とても良かったです！
残念ながらマングローブクルーズは大雨だったのですが
ガイドさんの話が面白かったので良かったです。
水牛車はとても可愛く、写真や動画を撮れたりするので
是非、おすすめです。牛にも個性があって面白いです。
由布島の植物園も雨でゆっくりは周れませんでしたが
２月では考えられない花や草木を見ることが出来ました。
竹富島は快晴でとても充実していました。
レンタサイクルで島内を一周しましたが、自由に色々見れるので
私は竹富島は水牛車よりもレンタサイクルをお勧めします。
（水牛車は由布島で乗れるし！）
石垣島より素朴で海が綺麗なので初めての方は
離島ツアーおすすめし、気に入った離島があれば自分で回るようにしたら良いです。

I chose the water buffalo cart course. After selecting the plan, I was a bit anxious because I had to make the payment within two days, and since all communication was done via email, I wasn't used to it. However, I received prompt replies to my inquiries via email, and everything went smoothly on the day of the event. The round-trip boat fare was included, and since the payment for the tickets and the boat schedule were all arranged in advance, there was no hassle, and I could just enjoy the experience. It was a great deal!
水牛車コースを選択しました。
プランを選択後、入金が2日以内だったので焦った事と全てメールでのやり取りだったので慣れておらず少し不安でしたがメールでの問い合わせにも即返信があり問題なく当日を迎えれました。往復船代金も込みなのと、当日チケットの支払いや行きの船の時間を調べて決めてなど手続きが事前に済んでいるので煩わしさもなくただ楽しむだけで利用できました^^お得です！
Translated by OpenAI
I participated in the rental bicycle plan! I think this price, which includes round-trip tickets for the boat and the rental bicycle fee, is quite a bargain. The weather was unstable, with sunny spells and light rain, but since we had plenty of time until the bicycle return, we were able to take shelter from the sudden rain without worrying about the time, allowing us to explore the island with peace of mind! The people at the island's shops were all very nice, and I made great memories!
レンタサイクルプランで参加しました！
船の往復チケット、レンタサイクル代込みでこの金額はかなりお得だと思います^ ^
天気は晴れたり霧雨が降ったりであまり安定しなかったですが、レンタサイクルの返却時間までかなり余裕があった為、突然の雨でも時間を気にせず雨宿りなども出来て安心して島を回ることができました！
島のお店の方々も良い方ばかりで良い思い出ができました！！

First of all, I was surprised by the large number of participants (although I imagine there are even more during the peak season…). The staff who guided us were very attentive, so I was able to participate efficiently without feeling confused.
For lunch on Yufu Island, I had a local specialty bento box, and I wasn't expecting much, but there was a menu or description of the dishes placed on each table, which was thoughtful, and the taste was good.
On Taketomi Island, I chose to rent a bicycle and took plenty of time until the 5 PM ferry. I leisurely visited each sightseeing spot, and it became a wonderful memory, offering views that you can't experience on a bus tour.
まずは参加人数の多さに驚きましたが（ベストシーズンはもっと多いのでしょうけど…）案内してくださるスタッフさんの誘導も行き届いていたので、戸惑うこともなく、効率よく参加することができました。
由布島での昼食は郷土料理の幕の内弁当であまり期待していなかったのですが、おしながきというかお料理の説明分が各テーブルに置いてあり、丁寧でお味も良かったです。
竹富島ではレンタルサイクルを選択して１７時発のフェリーまで時間をたっぷり取りました。各観光ポイントをのんび～り回りましたが、バス観光では味わえない風景がみれて最高の思い出になりました。

I used this plan for a trip with my mother in her 60s during the October holiday.
I considered whether I could visit three islands in one day on my own, but due to the bus transfer times and ferry schedules not aligning, I decided to book this plan.
As expected from a three-island tour, the transportation was very efficient with no wasted time. On Iriomote Island, we were able to enjoy a cruise before it got crowded, and during our free time on Yufu Island, we did a brown sugar packing activity after lunch, enjoyed coffee at a café while taking in the scenery, and leisurely strolled through the botanical garden, just in time for our meeting without any rush, allowing us to take plenty of photos.
On Taketomi Island, we requested a bus tour and a water buffalo cart, so my mother, in her 60s, didn’t get tired. We searched for star sand on the beach, walked around the island taking pictures of the townscape, and enjoyed parfaits at a dessert shop I had researched. I wanted to relax on the island, so I changed our return ferry to a later one.
We were blessed with good weather, and although I have traveled a lot, this was my first time experiencing such a satisfying day tour. My mother seemed very pleased as well. I highly recommend this plan!
10月の連休に60代の母との旅行で利用しました。
自分でもこの通りに1日で3島周れるかなと色々と検討したのですが
バスの乗り継ぎ時間や船の時間が合わず、こちらのプランを予約しました。
3島めぐりのプランだけあって、移動も非常に効率よく無駄がありませんでした。西表島では混雑する前にクルージングができ、由布島の自由時間ではランチ後に黒糖の詰め放題をやったり、カフェでコーヒーを飲んで景色を眺めたり、植物園をのんびり散策してちょうど集合時間位でしたので慌てて見る事もなく、沢山写真も撮れました。
竹富島ではバス観光と水牛車をお願いしたので60代の母も疲れる事無く、浜辺で星の砂を探したり、島内を歩いて街並みの写真を撮ったり、調べておいたスイーツのお店でパフェも食べることができました。島内でゆっくりしたかったので帰りの船を遅い便に変更してもらいました。
お天気にも恵まれ、多くの旅をしていますがこんなに満足度の高い1日観光は初めてでした。母も大満足だったようです。このプランおすすめします！

I think this tour is perfect for those traveling to the outer islands for the first time. It was a long tour from 7:55 AM at the outer island terminal to 4:30 PM, but the weather was relatively good, making it a satisfying experience.
During the itinerary, I was amazed by the mangrove forests of Iriomote Island, enjoyed a leisurely ride on a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, and explored the crystal-clear underwater views with a glass-bottom boat at Taketomi Island. The bus tour, especially the free exploration at Kaiji Beach (Star Sand Beach), was rich in content and created wonderful memories.
I would love to go island hopping again if I have the opportunity.
本ツアーは初めての離島旅行の方には最高かと思います。朝7:55離島ターミナル集合～16:30解散までの長時間ツアーでしたが、天気が比較的よく満足できたツアーでした。
行程中は西表島のマングローブの樹林に驚き、水牛車に乗ってゆったり由布島上陸、竹富島：グラスボードで透明度抜群の海中見学、バス観光は特にカイジ浜（星砂の浜）での自由探索、など内容豊富でよい思い出になりました。
また、機会があれば離島巡りをしたいと思っています。

You can efficiently explore the island. The guides for the glass boat, bus tour, and water buffalo cart were all very attentive, allowing us to gain knowledge while having fun. I'm glad I participated.
I visited the office to confirm the meeting place at the remote island terminal, and they suggested, "If you go now, you can make it to the previous start time. Would you like to change?" After contacting them to see if a change to Taketomi Island was possible, they made the adjustment. Thanks to that, I avoided an hour of downtime, and they also took care of my luggage, allowing me to move around freely. I was very grateful for their kindness.
とても効率よく島内観光ができます。
グラスボート・バス観光・水牛車それぞれのガイドさんが皆さん丁寧で、楽しみながら知識を得ることができました。
参加してよかったです。
離島ターミナルで集合場所を確認する為に事務所を訪れたのに「今からでしたら一つ前の開始時間に間に合いますよ？変更されますか？」と提案してくださり竹富島に変更可能かどうか連絡した上で変更して頂いた。
お陰で1時間のロスタイムがなくなり、荷物も預かって頂き、身軽に行動することができました。
とても親切でありがたかったです。

I participated in January. The weather was sunny, making it hard to believe it was winter, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even with just half a day and a well-balanced schedule, I was able to fully enjoy Taketomi Island.

I chose the water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island. While riding the cart, the driver shared interesting facts about the water buffalo and Taketomi Island, and he also sang traditional songs from Taketomi Island, providing attentive service.
竹富島での水牛車を選択しました。水牛車に乗っている間は、操縦士さんが水牛や竹富島に関する豆知識を披露してくれたり、竹富島伝統の唄を歌ってくださったりと、丁寧な接客でした。

I was very grateful that I could efficiently visit Iriomote Island, Taketomi Island, and Yufu Island. I wanted to leisurely explore the nearby islands from Ishigaki Island, but access was poor and it was unfortunately raining, so I made a reservation the day before. There seemed to be other tours with similar schedules, but I think this one was the cheapest. On Taketomi Island, there was also free time for strolling, and I was able to enjoy the atmosphere of the island.
西表島、竹富島、由布島が効率よくめぐれて、大変助かりました。石垣島から近隣の島をゆっくり巡りたかったのですがアクセスが悪いのと、あいにくの雨でしたので、前日に申しこみました。似たようなスケジュールでほかのツアーもあったようですが、一番安かったかと思います。竹富島では自由時間もあり散策もでき、島の雰囲気も味わえました。

It was a rainy season, but somehow the weather held up, and I was able to enjoy a variety of activities including the water buffalo cart, glass-bottom boat, and exploring the village and beach.
I intentionally jogged and walked around Kaiji Beach, famous for its star sand, and Kondoi Beach, which allowed me to collect shells on the sandy beach and observe plants and insects.
Although I had an afternoon departure, I was able to enjoy myself until 5:00 PM, so I had a great time.
雨の多い時期でしたが、なんとか天気が持ち、水牛車やグラスボート、そして村中やビーチ散策まで一通り楽しめました。
星の砂で有名なカイジ浜やコンドイビーチへは、あえてジョギングとウォーキングで巡ったので、砂浜での貝殻拾い、植物や昆虫などの観察をすることが出来ました。
午後発でしたが、17:00まで楽しめたので、十分に満喫できました。

Since it was my first time in Ishigaki Island, I read that island hopping is recommended, so I signed up, and I'm glad I did. Unfortunately, the weather was rainy, but it didn't get strong enough to affect the tour, so that was good.
初めての石垣島でどうせなら、島巡りがおすすめだと書いてありましたので、
申し込みして、よかったです。悪運で天気が雨でしたが、何とかツアーに影響するほど強くはならなかったので、よかったです。

Despite the rain, I had a great time. During the cruising, it was clear when we could take off the vinyl sheet and when we couldn't, allowing us to see the mangroves properly. For the cycling on Taketomi Island, we were able to borrow rain gear. Since the weather wasn't favorable, I'm thinking of trying again for a second chance.
雨の中でしたが、楽しませていただきました。
クルージングでは、ビニールシートを取って良い時間もそうでない時間がはっきりしていて、しっかりとマングローブを見ることができました。
竹富島のサイクリングでは、雨具を貸していただけました。
お天気に恵まれなかったので、もう一度リベンジしようと思ってます。

I rode a water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island and then enjoyed some free exploration. Everything on the island, from the buildings and roads to the flowers and water buffalo carts, was beautiful, allowing me to fully enjoy the tropical atmosphere. The only regret was that the weather was cloudy, and I imagined a blue sky with white clouds while sightseeing. Also, we changed the meeting time about three days before the tour, but the process was smooth, which was very helpful. Thank you very much.
竹富島の水牛車に乗りその後、自由散策してきました。島内は建物、道路、花等植物、水牛車等すべてが美しく南国を満喫しました。
お天気だけが曇っていて心残りで、青い空に白い雲を想像しながら観光しました。
また観光の３日前ぐらいに集合時間の変更をしましたが手続きもスムーズで大変助かりました。ありがとうございました。

It was quite hot, reaching nearly 30 degrees for this time of year. The mangrove cruise was combined with other tours. The water buffalo cart ride was nice and had a charming atmosphere. The cycling option on Taketomi Island wasn't bad, but the hills were quite tough. Depending on the day's temperature, I think those who usually ride electric bikes should consider paying the extra fee to rent one. I was sweating a lot!
この時期としては30度近くまで気温が上がり、暑かったです。マングローブクルーズは他のツアーと一緒でした。水牛車は風情を感じられて良かったです。竹富島のサイクリング選択は悪くなかったですが…坂道が結構辛かったです。その日の気温にもよりますが普段、電動自転車に乗っている方は追加料金を払っても電動自転車を借りた方が良かったと思います。私は大汗かきました(^^ゞ(^^ゞ

In December, it was 27 degrees, and the weather was warm enough to break a sweat even in short sleeves. I cruised upstream along the Nakama River in Iriomote Island, enjoying the refreshing breeze through the mangrove forest. Next, I took a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island. While gently swaying, I listened to island songs and felt relaxed. On the island, I explored freely, spending time picking up shells and coral on the beach where manta rays could be seen, and watching butterflies resting on beautiful flowers. Although it was just half a day, I had a fulfilling time.
12月なのに27度もあって、半袖でも汗ばむ気候。西表島の仲間川を、爽やかな風にあたりながらマングローブの林を上流へとクルージング。次は、水牛車で由布島へ。のんびりと揺られながら島唄を聞き、癒されました。島の中では自由散策で、マンタの見える浜で貝殻やサンゴを拾ったり、美しい花にとまる蝶を見たりして、時間を過ごしました。半日でしたが、充実した時間が過ごせました。

Just a short trip from Ishigaki Island, it feels like a different time flows here. This is my second visit, and when I go to Taketomi Island, I feel like everything is forgotten and my lifespan has been extended. Is it just me? You can truly enjoy the travel atmosphere here.
石垣島からちょっと足を伸ばすだけで、日常とは別の時間が流れている感じです。今回、2回目の参加ですが、竹富島を訪れると、何もかも忘れさせてくれ寿命が延びたように感じるのは私だけ？でしょうか。
旅行気分を満喫できますよ。
