This tour includes both water buffalo carts traveling through the water on Yubu Island and those moving through the town on Taketomi Island. As previous travelers have noted, upon checking in at the remote island terminal, we received all our tickets and proceeded to our respective boarding areas on time. The coordination and guidance at each location were solid, allowing us to explore freely and comfortably while ensuring a safe and efficient visit to all three islands.
The mangrove cruise took place on a day close to high tide, but there were unique sights to see during low tide, and the captain's stories were entertaining.
On Yubu Island, the water buffalo cart crosses the sea, creating a scene filled with sky, ocean, and the water buffalo cart. I had imagined it would have a more rustic charm, but it turned out to be quite touristy with a comical side, which seemed to appeal to a wide range of generations. While on land, after confirming the return time for the water buffalo cart, we were free to explore. For lunch, we went to a cafeteria where we enjoyed a bento box featuring Okinawan ingredients, including rice made from black rice from Iriomote Island. As someone visiting Okinawa for the first time, I found the unique food delicious, and I even bought some souvenirs at Ishigaki Airport on the way back, thanks to the bento from Yubu Island. We took beautiful photos of flowers and the water buffalo in the water, and while we could relax on Yubu Island, it was hot, so we took breaks in cool buildings while exploring.
On Taketomi Island, I chose the water buffalo cart and bus tour. First, we took a bus from Taketomi Port to Kaiji Beach and Kondoi Beach. Although the time at each location was short, there were cheers when we saw the beautiful shallow beaches. The water buffalo cart then leisurely moved through the streets lined with red-tiled roofs and blooming bougainvillea. (The water buffalo has a habit of stopping in the shade, which was quite charming.) With a roof overhead, we were shielded from the heat, and the 30 minutes passed quickly as the tour neared its end. The connection to the bus back to Taketomi Port was excellent, so there wasn't time to shop or have tea in town, but without this kind of tour that allows for a short visit to all three islands, I wouldn't have been able to travel to the Yaeyama Islands. The itinerary itself and the operational efficiency of the tour seemed to reflect feedback from previous travelers, showing improvements, and I thought it was a wonderfully well-organized tour. This time, I traveled alone as a reconnaissance trip, but if it’s this good, I’d like to bring my husband along next time and go again.
由布島で水の中をゆく水牛車と、竹富島の町なかをゆく水牛車の両方があるこのツアー。
先人の方が、体験談に書いておられる通り、離島ターミナルでの受付時に、すべてのチケットを受け取って、時間通りに各々乗り場へ。各場所での連携、誘導もしっかりしていて、自由で気楽
でありながら、安心で、効率良く3島を回れました。
マングローブクルーズは大潮に近い日にちでしたが、引き潮ならではの見どころがあり、
船長さんのお話も面白かった。
由布島では、海をわたってゆく水牛車。視界の中が、空と、海と、水牛車、の世界。。。
は、もうちょっといい感じに鄙びた風情かと勝手に思っておりましたが、
ツーリスティックで、コミカルな一面もあり、それはそれで、幅広い世代に受けている様子。
上陸中は、戻りの水牛車の集合時間を確認したら、自由に見学します。
お昼は、各々食堂に行き頂くのですが、
沖縄食材を散りばめたお弁当で、西表島の黒米?のごはんがついています。沖縄方面は初めての私には珍しい食べものが多くとても美味しかったので、帰りの石垣空港でお土産に買ったものもあり、由布島のお弁当のおかげと思っています。
美しい花や、水に入っている水牛さんの写真を撮ったり、由布島では結構ゆっくりできますが、
暑いので涼しい建物のなかで休憩しつつの見学という感じでした。
竹富島は、水牛車とバス観光を選びました。
まず、バスで竹富港からカイジ浜や、コンドイ浜へ。各所時間は短いですが、遠浅の美しい浜が見えた時には、歓声が上がっていました。
そして、水牛車は、ブーゲンビリアの咲く赤瓦の街並みをゆっくりと進みます。
(日陰で止まる癖のある水牛さんがご愛嬌)
屋根があるので暑さは遮られ30分は結構すぐ過ぎて、ツアーも終盤です。
帰りの竹富港までのバスへの連絡もやたら良いので、町へ出て、買い物や、お茶のみをする時間はありませんが、短い時間でも3島巡りできるこのようなツアーでなければ、八重山諸島の旅行には来られなかったでしょう。
旅程そのものも、それを実行する側の機動力もあり、以前体験談等で見かけた客の声も反映され改善されているように見えましたし、素晴らしくよくできたツアーだと思いました。
今回は、下見を兼ねての一人旅でしたが、こんなに良いなら夫も連れて、また行きたいです。

I participated in a cycling course on Taketomi Island. It was hot, but the kids really enjoyed collecting star sand at Star Sand Beach, playing on the beach as much as they wanted, and visiting the village. It was also nice to be able to choose the time for the return ferry.

暑かったですが、星砂海岸で星砂集めたり、ビーチで好きなだけ遊んだり、集落にお邪魔したりで、子供たちはとても楽しんでいました

In the morning, I took a bus tour around Ishigaki Island. The bus tour departed from the bus terminal near the remote island terminal.
The tour was led by a charming elderly guide who made the time fly with his interesting stories.
Although the tour was brief, it allowed us to greatly enjoy the natural beauty of Ishigaki Island, which was truly refreshing for someone living in the city.
Unfortunately, the glass-bottom boat experience was disappointing as the seabed visible through the glass was all green, and it didn't showcase the true colors of the underwater scenery. If you want to enjoy the underwater world, snorkeling might be a better option.
For lunch, we had hamburgers made with Ishigaki beef, which might be great for hamburger lovers (though I wasn't that impressed...).
After finishing the bus tour around Ishigaki Island, I walked from the bus terminal to the remote island terminal and took a ferry to Taketomi Island around 3 PM.
On Taketomi Island, I rode in an ox cart, which was the main attraction. I had the chance to ride in an ox cart pulled by a famous ox named Pīsuke, who has appeared on television.
The guide, who also drove the ox cart, was entertaining, and even though it was my first time riding in one, I enjoyed a leisurely tour around the village.
I would love to visit Ishigaki again.
午前中は、石垣島一周バスツアー。
バスツアーは、離島ターミナル側のバスターミナルからの出発でした。
バスツアーは、おじいちゃん名物ガイドさんで話しが面白かったのであっと言う間の時間でした。
バスツアーでは、足早ですが石垣島の自然を大いに楽しめますし、都会で生活している者にとっては本当に癒されます。
残念なのはグラスボート、ガラスから見える海底は全て緑色で、本来の色合いを楽しめるものではなかったので、海中を楽しむのならシュノーケリングなどになってしまうのかなぁ。
昼食は、多分(笑)、石垣牛の挽き肉を使ったハンバーグで、ハンバーグ好きには良いかも知れませんね(私はそれほどでも…汗)。
石垣島一周バスツアーを終え、バスターミナルから離島ターミナルへ徒歩で移動し、15時くらいから竹富島に渡りました。
竹富島では、牛車が目的で牛車に乗ってきました。
牛車は、テレビにも出演した事のある牛のピー助が引く牛車に乗る事が出来ました。
牛車を運転するガイド兼任の方のトークも面白く初めて牛車に乗りましたがゆったりと動き村一周も長閑な時間を過ごせました。
石垣にはもう一度行ってみたいと思っています。

It was a tour that covered three islands in one day, each filled with its own charm. On Iriomote Island, we explored the mangrove forest by boat. We leisurely crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo, and the guide's sanshin performance was also captivating. We strolled through the botanical garden. The lunch bento was delicious too. Finally, on Taketomi Island, we took a relaxing tour around the village on a water buffalo, and the pace of life was wonderfully slow. I highly recommend this tour!
1日で3島を巡り、それぞれの島の魅力満載のツアーでした。西表島ではマングローブの森を船で観光。由布島へは、水牛でゆったりと渡りガイドさんの三線も魅力的でした。植物園内を散策。昼食のお弁当も美味しかったですよ。最後の竹富島は、村の中を水牛でのんびり回り時の流れがゆったりとして最高でした‼️とってもオススメのツアーですよ。

At every destination, the guide is waiting for you, so you can enjoy yourself without any prior research. If you think about going on your own, visiting three islands in one day would be impossible, so I recommend it for those who want to go to various places even if time is limited! I took my 1 year and 7-month-old child, and since there isn't much walking involved, they seemed to have a great time. I think it's a plan that works perfectly even with small children.
行く先々でガイドさんが待ってくれているので、何の下調べをしなくても楽しめる。自分たちだけて行こうと思うと1日に3島もめぐるのは無理だと思うので、時間はないけど色々行きたい!って人にはオススメ。1歳7ヶ月の子供を連れて行ったが、そんなに長時間歩くこともないので楽しそうにしていた。小さな子供がいても全く問題ないプランだと思う。

Iriomote Island's mangrove tour was cut short due to the low tide, which was disappointing. On Taketomi Island, I previously experienced a glass-bottom boat, but this time it was a bus tour and a stroll in an ox cart, so I finally feel like I understood some of the charm of Taketomi Island. Next time, I want to consider not just a day trip but also an overnight stay.
西表島は引き潮の関係でマングローブのツアーが途中までだったので残念でした。
竹富島は前回はグラスボートでしたが、今回はバス見学と牛車での散策だったので、やっと竹富島の良さの一部が判った気がします。次回は日帰りツアーだけで無く宿泊も考えたいです。

I think it's great for first-time island hopping as it allows you to efficiently visit each island. The water buffalo cart experience was delightful, as the buffalo's face was so charming and soothing. On Taketomi Island, we explored various places by renting bicycles. It's recommended because you can go wherever you want and at your own pace.
各離島に効率よくまわれて、初めての離島めぐりには良いと思いました。
水牛車体験は水牛の顔が愛らしくて、とても癒されました。
竹富島ではレンタルサイクルで各地をまわりました、自分の行きたいところに行けるし、自分たちのペース配分で行けるのでオススメです。

It was a wonderful trip.
At first, I wanted to ride the glass-bottom boat and the water buffalo cart at Kabira Bay, so I searched for various options. I'm glad I found this plan that allowed me to do everything in one day and signed up for it.
The hamburger at Aunt Poza's lunch (a place I wanted to visit after reading about it in a book) was tender and had a gentle flavor! I also enjoyed the fried gurukun, a local Okinawan specialty, very much.
Due to our mistake, we missed the ferry to Taketomi Island, but they quickly arranged everything for us, and we were able to ride the water buffalo cart (the magnificent Kuro-chan) safely. Thank you very much for that. We changed our return ferry time to the last one and enjoyed searching for star sand at Kaiji Beach, which we really wanted to visit, by renting bicycles. Taking a break in the shade while looking at the blue sea was the best healing time.
It was fun. Thank you very much.
素晴らしい旅になました。
最初、川平湾のグラスボートや水牛車に乗りたくて色々なオプションを探しました。
一日で、全部叶うこのプランを見つけて申し込みして、良かったです。
ポーザおばさんのランチ(本で見て行きたかったお店でした。)のハンバーグも柔らかくて優しい味付け❗(^ー^)
沖縄名物グルクンのから揚げもとても美味しく頂きました。
私達の間違えで、竹富島へ渡るフェリー乗り場を間違え乗り遅れてしまったのに、直ぐに手配してくれて、無事に水牛車(立派なクロちゃん)に乗れました。その節は、本当に有難うございました。
帰りのフェリー時間を最終に変更して、どうしても行きたかったカイジ浜へもレンタサイクルで、星砂探しを楽しみました。

At the designated time, I received an explanation at the booth of the operator at the remote island terminal and picked up my tickets (for the round trip boat and water buffalo cart). I boarded the boat to Taketomi Island. Perhaps the delay was charming. After arriving, I took the designated bus to the water buffalo cart operator. After receiving my return bus ticket at the reception, I headed to the water buffalo cart. It was fun to leisurely explore the town while listening to the guide. From there, I rented a bicycle from the same operator as an option and went to see the ocean. The weather was clear, so I encountered the best scenery. I also picked up star sand for an hour and a half. After returning the bicycle, I had lunch, took the bus, and then the boat back to Ishigaki. The guidance was easy to understand, so I was able to enjoy myself freely.
指定された時間に離島ターミナルの業者さんのブースで説明を受けチケット(行き帰りの船と水牛車の3つ)を受け取って、竹富島行きの業者さんの船に乗りました。時間がすぎたのは愛嬌でしょうか。着いてから指定のバスに乗り、水牛車の業者さんのところへ。受付で帰りのバスのチケットをもらってから、水牛車へ。ガイドを聞きながらのんびり街中をまわれて楽しかったです^^ そこからはオプションで同じ業者さんのレンタサイクルを借りて、海を見に行きました。晴れていたので最高の景色に出会えました^^ 星砂も拾って、1時間半。自転車を返してランチを食べ、バスに乗って、船に乗って石垣に戻りました。案内がわかりやすいので自由に楽しめてよかったです^^

I participated with my mother in her 60s.
Since it was after the rainy season, the weather was nice and the heat was intense.
The hotel provided transportation, which made it very convenient.
On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed a mangrove cruise on the Nakama River and admired the Sakishima Suo tree.
The tour included explanations, which allowed us to appreciate everything more deeply.
We rode a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island.
Due to the high tide, the water level was quite close, which was a bit nerve-wracking, but it was an interesting experience that you can't have every day.
We had lunch here, and since we had a little extra time, we strolled through the botanical garden.
On Taketomi Island, we opted for a water buffalo cart and bus tour.
Given the heat, the bus tour that took us to the sightseeing spots was efficient.
However, for those who want to explore Taketomi Island at a leisurely pace, I think cycling, despite the heat, would be better.
You would be able to appreciate the charm of Taketomi Island even more.
The water buffalo cart took us along a path lined with bougainvillea.

This was our first trip to Taketomi Island with two families (four people). We chose this plan because we wanted to experience the water buffalo cart tour, and it was the right decision.

We had a wonderful time as we went around the course. Additionally, we were able to visit all the highlights of the island, making for a satisfying sightseeing experience. Thank you very much for your help.

Since we could choose the round-trip boat schedule freely, we were able to enjoy the water buffalo cart and the island at our own pace.
The locals were kind, and even though the post office was closed on Sunday, they happily accepted my request to mail a postcard, which arrived later with a Yaeyama postmark. (I paid for the postage.)
The service at the meeting point counter was also polite and good.
It became a wonderful memory.
石垣島から船で10分という気軽さと、某旅行会社のオプショナルツアーと比べて半額以下という格安料金だったので参加を決めました。

Taketomi Island is just a 15-minute boat ride from Ishigaki Island. We arrived in no time. We spent about 30 minutes on a glass-bottom boat, where we saw various fish, but I was concerned about the decreasing number of corals. Next, we rode water buffalo to explore the village. It was very peaceful. However, it was already hot in early June, so we had to use rental bicycles to get around the village. I recommend swimming at Hoshizuna Beach. There were few people, and the water was very clear and shallow, so we could see plenty of fish swimming right in front of us. I would love to go again.
竹富島へは石垣島から船で15分。アッという間に着いてしまいました。グラスボートで約30分いろんな魚が泳いでいましたがただサンゴが少なくなっているのが気がかりでした。次に水牛に乗って村を散策。のどかでしたね。ただ6月初めですでに暑くむらの散策もレンタサイクルで回らないと動けません。おすすめは星砂の浜での海水浴。人も少なくまた海がとても綺麗で遠浅なので目の前で魚がいっぱい泳いでいました。また行きたいですね

The tour didn't have a guide accompanying us the whole time, so we were free to move around.
Cycling on sunny days requires UV protection!
For women, having a hat and UV-cut arm covers is a good idea!
添乗員さんが付きっきりというツアーでは無かったので、自由に動くことが出来ました。
晴れた時のサイクリングは紫外線対策必須です!
女性は、帽子にUVカットアームカバーがあると良し!

Yui-kun was very cute. I had a great time enjoying Taketomi Island. I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

I visited Ishigaki Island as a port of call on the Diamond Princess cruise, and I definitely wanted to ride the water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island! I made a reservation.
I was a bit worried about meeting at the location, but once I arrived at the remote island terminal, I was able to check in without getting lost. When I reached Taketomi Island, a shuttle was waiting to take me to the water buffalo cart boarding area, and I was able to board smoothly.
Since I had to return to the ship, I didn't go out for other sightseeing, but next time, I would like to take my time and explore!
ダイヤモンドプリンセスクルーズの寄港先に石垣島があり、是非とも竹富島の水牛車に乗りたい!い予約しました。
現地集合の為少し心配でしたが、離島ターミナルにつけば、迷う事無くにチェックイン出来、竹富島へ、島に着くと、水牛車乗り場までの送迎車が待っていて、スムーズに水牛車に乗る事が出来ました。
船に戻る時間があったので、他の観光は出なかったのですが、次回はゆっくりと観光してみたいです。

We had about an hour and a half to spare before the water buffalo cart departed back to Iriomote Island. Since Yubu Island is not very large, we needed to be creative with how we spent our time. Many other guests were also sitting and waiting for the time to come.
由布島から西表島に戻る際の水牛車の出発まで、1時間半ほどあり時間をもてあました。由布島は大きな島ではないため、時間の使い方に工夫が必要。他のお客さんも座って時間が来るのを待っている方が多かった。

Since this is my second time visiting Taketomi Island, I chose a relaxed rental bicycle plan this time. I think the size of Taketomi Island is just right for exploring by bicycle. This plan includes not only the ferry ticket and rental bicycle fee but also round-trip transportation from the hotel and luggage storage service at the island terminal, so I found it to be a great deal.
竹富島に行くのは2回目なので、今回はのんびりレンタサイクルのプランを選びました。竹富島の広さは、レンタサイクルくらいがちょうどいいなと思います。このプランには乗船券とレンタサイクル代だけではなく、ホテルからの往復送迎や離島ターミナルでの荷物預かりのサービスもついているので、とてもお得だと思いました。
