All Reviews for Stargazing

It was amazing!
The weather, which I was worried about, turned out to be a clear sky full of stars.
I was able to see many stars, including some that I can't see in Tohoku.
They also shared wonderful stories about Ishigaki Island related to the stars, making it a truly enjoyable and fantastic time.
I appreciate the two tour guides who were very kind and considerate, even though we arrived quite early.
The breathtaking starry sky and the fun stories made the hour fly by.

最高でした！
不安だった天気も、気づけば満天の星空でした。
数々の星、また東北では見ることのできない星も見ることが出來ました。
星にまつわる石垣島のお話もして下さり、とてもとてもそれは楽しい素晴らしい時間でした。
ツアーのお二人のお兄様方も、大分早く着いてしまったのに、優しくお気遣い頂いて感謝です。
感動の星空と楽しいお話し、あっという間の1時間でした。

I was drawn to the Jungle Night Tour and signed up. Although it wasn't raining, the weather was unfortunately not great... Sadly, we couldn't see the starry sky, but I had a great time encountering the unique plants and creatures of the Yaeyama Islands.

ジャングルナイトツアーにひかれて申し込みました。雨は降っていませんでしたがあいにくのお天気…残念ながら星空は見えませんでしたが八重山諸島ならではの植物や生物に出会えて楽しい思い出が出来ました。

After the wedding ceremony in Miyako Island, we requested a night photo tour as a keepsake. While enjoying the truly beautiful starry sky with our own eyes, we were able to use various props for the shoot, and it was a fun experience✨

I'm really glad we decided to capture our memories in photos! Thank you very much!

お願いして本当によかったです！
ありがとうございました

I found a night tour around 4 PM when I didn't want to waste the evening after another tour ended! The tour itself was short, but it wasn't a very well-organized tour, so I hurriedly made a reservation on the same day.

The young and energetic guide was very enthusiastic and made everyone laugh, which was a lot of fun. We were able to find some snakes and crabs that are usually hard to see, which was really exciting!

Unfortunately, I couldn't see the stars on the day I went, but instead, I was able to see fireflies!! Super lucky!

I recommend this for those who want to make good use of their evening time or for families with children!

午後4時ぐらいに他のツアー終わって夜の時間を無駄に使いたくなかった時見つけたナイトツアー！！ツアー自体に時間は短かったが、あまりよくできるツアーではなかったので急いで当日に予約のお決まり★

若くて元気なガイドのお姉さん、やる気満々で凄くいい感じでみんなを笑わせて楽しかった。普通には見ることがなかなかできない蛇やカニなど結構見つけられて嬉しさ上々★

私が行った日は残念ながら星を見られなかったが、代わりに蛍みることできた！！超ーラッキー

夜の時間を上手く使いたい人や子供を持ってるおご家族におススメ★

I wanted to fully enjoy Ishigaki Island until night, so I signed up for this tour. I was glad to see creatures like fireflies and coconut crabs that are not often seen. The explanations were also very easy to understand and enjoyable.

石垣島を夜まで満喫したいと思いこちらのツアーを申込みました。ホタルやヤシガニなどあまり見ることができない生き物を見ることができて良かったです。解説も非常にわかりやすく楽しかったです。

Unfortunately, the cloudy sky meant we couldn't see the stars at all, but I was very satisfied to see four coconut crabs, fireflies (larvae??), and stalactites! I especially couldn't find the coconut crabs at all, so when I finally did, I was truly moved!

あいにくの曇り空で、星空は全然見れなかったですが、ヤシガニ4匹と蛍(の幼虫？？)、鍾乳石が見れて大満足でした！！
とくにヤシガニは全然見つけられなくて、、見つけた時は本当に感動でした〜

The weather was bad during my stay, but the night of my visit it cleared up, and I saw the best starry sky! After that, I had fun exploring for creatures along the seaside at night.

滞在中天気が悪かったのですが、当日夜は晴れ、最高の星空が見えました！その後で、夜の海沿いで生き物探し、冒険楽しかったです。

First of all, the starry sky was wonderful. Also, the enthusiasm and information from the cute guide about the flora and fauna of Iriomote Island made the jungle experience so much more enjoyable!

まず、満天の星がよかったです。また、かわいいお姉さんの西表島の動植物に対する熱と情報でジャングルも何倍も楽しめました！

I applied for this experience because I wanted to see the starry sky at night while traveling alone. In a place without streetlights, I was able to see stars that are not visible in the city, with a full 180-degree view. I even spotted a few shooting stars. The guide was friendly and made the experience enjoyable, allowing us to spend precious time together. Since we met at the location and there weren't many landmarks or streetlights, I think it would be easier to find if there were signs or markers set up.

ひとり旅で夜の満天の星空に見たいなと思い申し込みました
都会では見えない星も街灯のない場所では180度全て見るとこができました
流れ星もちらほら
ガイドの方も気さくで楽しく貴重な時間が過ごせました
現地集合であったのと、街灯もなく目印もあまりなかったので、看板等たてていただけると行きやすいかなとは思いました

During my stay, I was worried because the weather wasn't great, but it cleared up in the afternoon, and if I looked closely, I could even see the Milky Way without the moon. The other stars were beautiful as well, which was fantastic. The only disappointing part was that I couldn't spot the shooting stars that others seemed to have seen, and the wind was really strong. However, sailing on the night sea was a valuable experience, and I enjoyed it.

滞在中天候に恵まれず不安でしたが、その日の午後から晴れ、月もなく良く目をこらせば天の川も確認できました。その他の星達も綺麗に見えて最高でした。残念だったのは、他の方は見たらしい流れ星を見つけられなかった事と風が凄かった事かな。でも夜の海の航海は貴重な体験で良かったです

I got to see coconut crabs, firefly larvae, and the starry sky. I was shown many creatures and plants, including crabs and camel crickets. The tour guide was kind, and it was really great! My first-grade son was extremely happy!

ヤシガニや、ホタルの幼虫、星空。
蟹やカマドウマ？沢山の生き物や植物を見せて貰いました。
ツアーの人も優しくてとっても良かったです！
小1男の子が、めちゃくちゃ喜びました〜！

It was close to a full moon, so I focused more on photographing the moon rather than the stars. Thick clouds were covering the sky, and it was touch and go whether we could take photos, but we waited together for about 30 minutes until the clouds cleared, and I was able to get some great shots! I was able to take as many photos as I wanted. The photo data arrived the next day, and I was very satisfied with the results. I definitely want to experience this again for my travel memories next time!

満月に近づいている時だったので、星というよりは月をメインで撮影してもらいました。分厚い雲がかかってしまい、撮影できるかギリギリなところでしたが、雲流れていくまで30分程度も一緒に待っていただいたことで、無事写真をとってもらう事が出来ました！満足いくまで写真を撮っていただきました。写真のデータも次の日すぐに届き、出来上がりもとっても満足するものになりました。
次回もまた旅行の思い出に、体験したいと思います！

I wanted to take photos both with two people and a solo version, and they kindly agreed to my requests. They took a lot of pictures and suggested poses that worked well, making it easy for me. They also carefully filmed multiple times to create a story for the video, and the finished photos were sent to me later. They were so beautiful that I was extremely satisfied. Thank you! 😊

2人でも撮りたいし、1人バージョンも取りたいとわがままを言ったところ快く引き受けてくださりました。沢山写真も撮って頂いて、ポーズもこういうのがいいんじゃないかなと言っていただいてやりやすかったです♡動画もストーリーができるように何回も丁寧に撮って頂いて完成した写真が後日送られてきたのですが綺麗すぎて大満足でした。ありがとうございます☺️

We came to Miyako Island for our honeymoon, and I thought it would be nice to have some memorable photos, so we joined this optional tour. The night sky in Miyako Island was very beautiful, and we were able to take wonderful night photos with the stars and the moon! My wife was also very happy, which was great!

新婚旅行で宮古島に来たので、何か思い出に残る写真があれば良いなと思い、このオプションツアーに参加しました。宮古島の夜空はとても綺麗で、星や月とともに素敵なナイトフォトを撮ってもらいました！
妻も大変喜んでくれて、良かったです！

Just before the typhoon, ocean activities were uncertain... I made a reservation, thinking I could still make it even if I signed up in the evening! On the day of the event, they kindly explained that the weather might make it difficult to see the stars and confirmed whether I still wanted to participate.

To be honest, due to the timing, the moon was too bright, so it wasn't a perfect starry sky! However, I was satisfied as I could enjoy moonbathing and saw some stars when the clouds cleared. It was also my first time seeing the moon's patterns clearly through binoculars, which I personally found enjoyable! I was worried about mosquitoes and bugs, but it turns out there weren't many at all. I definitely want to participate again on a clear day!

台風直前で海のアクティビティが危うい…夕方申込でも間に合う！と予約をしました。
当日は到着して天候や星空が見えにくい可能性があることも丁寧に説明していただき、その上で参加されるかどうか確認がありました。
結果から言うと時期的に月が眩し過ぎて満点の星空！ではありませんでしたが月光浴が出来たり、雲がはけたタイミングで星が見えたりと満足でした。双眼鏡でくっきりと月の模様を見たのも初めてだったので個人的には楽しかったです！蚊や虫が不安でした意外といないそうです。次は快晴の時にぜひ参加したいです。

I had wanted to try this for a long time, and it was even more beautiful and fun than I had imagined! The LED lights were cute too! I really appreciated the precise posing instructions. Thank you! ✨

以前から１度してみたかったのですが、想像していた以上に綺麗で楽しく、LEDも可愛かったです！
ポージングも的確に指示して頂き助かりました。ありがとうございました✨

I was moved by the starry sky! The stories about the stars and constellations were fascinating, and I wanted to hear more and more. It's fun to recognize the shapes of the constellations! Thank you for a wonderful time!

満天の星空に感動しました❗️星や星座のお話も興味深く、もっともっと聞きたかったです。星座の形がわかると楽しいですね！素敵な時間をありがとうございました❗

I was lucky to see many stars! I was also moved by seeing the Milky Way for the first time in my life! I got to see many coconut crabs too! During the journey, we talked about various things, and I really enjoyed Iriomote Island! Thank you very much!

運良く星も沢山見れて！人生初の天の川にも感動しました！
ヤシガニも沢山見れました！
移動中も色々な話をしてくださり、西表島楽しめました！ありがとうございました

There were a few clouds, and cancellations were possible, but we headed to the site. Upon arrival, the guide explained, "There are clouds in that direction, and given the current situation, there is a possibility that clouds may come from there." They kindly confirmed with us, "Will you participate?"

During our stay in Ishigaki Island, we experienced the rapidly changing weather, so we decided to go ahead with the tour. The children's cheers when they sat in the reclining chairs (one in middle school and one in fourth grade) were amazing! They were so excited!

After that, there were indeed times when clouds obscured the stars, but the guide provided explanations about the visible stars, and before we knew it, time flew by. In the end, we were able to see a perfectly clear starry sky without a single cloud. I highly recommend the stargazing tour!

雲が少しあり、キャンセルも可能の中、現地へと向かいました。現地に着いてからもガイドの方から、「雲が向こうの方向にあって、今の状況だとあそこから雲が来る可能性があります。」との説明があり、「参加されますか？」と優しく最終確認をしていただきました。
石垣島に滞在している間、天気がコロコロ変わるのを体感していたので、そのままツアーに参加することにしました。リクライニングチェアに座った時の子供たち（中1，小4）の歓声はすごかったです！大興奮でした笑
その後、やはり雲で星が隠れることもありましたが、見えている部分の星の説明をしていただいたりと、あっという間に時間は過ぎ、最後の方は、雲一つない満点の星空を見ることができました。星空ツアーかなりおすすめです！！

The guide was very enjoyable, sharing various stories during the car ride. I was extremely satisfied to see many creatures, including several coconut crabs, crabs, hermit crabs, firefly larvae, and frogs! And above all, I was moved by the breathtaking starry sky and the Milky Way!

行きの車の中でも色々なお話をしてくださって、とっても楽しいガイドさんでした。生き物も、ヤシガニが何匹も見れて、カニ、ヤドカリ、ホタルの幼虫やカエルなどもたくさん見れて、大満足です！あとはなんと言っても満天の星空、天の川が見れて感動しました！

It was very good!
The story about the constellations was informative and interesting.
I just thought it would be nice if the reclining feature could lean back a bit more, and if it's not too difficult, having something like a yoga mat to make it completely flat would be even better.
It was a bit disappointing that it rained heavily at one point, but overall, it was great.
Thank you!

とても良かったです！
星座のお話もためになり、興味深かったです。
ただ、リクライニングがもう少し倒れるといーかなぁと言うのと、もし難しければヨガマット的なものでも良いので完全フラットになれば更に最高かもでした。
途中雨がひどくそれがやや残念でしたが、いずれにしても良かったです。
ありがとうございました！

I had a wonderful time with our tour guide, Mr. Kimura. I was able to see creatures that I normally wouldn't see, and at night on the beach, I could gaze at the starry sky, which was a precious experience! If I come to Ishigaki Island again, I definitely want to participate!

ツアーガイドの木村さんのガイドで楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
普段見ることはできない生物も見見ることができ、また、夜のビーチでは満天の星空を眺めることもでき、貴重な体験をすることできました!また、石垣島に来たら、ぜひ参加したいです!

I had a great time seeing various creatures like coconut crabs, firefly larvae, and hermit crabs! The weather was beautifully clear, and the starry sky was very visible, making it a wonderful memory.

ヤシガニやホタルの幼虫、ヤドカリなど様々な生き物が見れて楽しかったです！ちょうどきれいに晴れて星空もよく見え、良い思い出になりました。

On the first day of our trip, we had planned for a starry sky photo shoot, but we received a call saying that it was going to be difficult due to the clouds, so we decided to reschedule for the next day. However, when we went to the shooting location the next day, we were told that it was also going to be difficult because the clouds had returned, leaving us feeling hopeless as we realized that our only chance was the last night of our trip.

On the final day, just a few hours before the shoot, we received another call saying that it might also be difficult today, but should we give it a try? We decided to head to the shooting location anyway. To our surprise, it seemed that our prayers were answered, as the clouds had moved far away, and the starry sky was visible! A miracle happened on the last day. We were able to take the poses we wanted, and they also made great suggestions, resulting in wonderful photos and the best time. We even captured a shooting star, which was amazing. I would love to request their services again when I come back to Miyako Island. Thank you very much!

旅行初日に予定していた星空フォトでしたが、雲が多く、今日は厳しいとお電話を頂き、次の日にすることに。ところが次の日撮影の場所に行くと、また雲がかかってきてしまい、今日も厳しいと言われて、旅行ラストナイトの明日しかチャンスが無いことに絶望しました。
最終日も数時間前に電話を頂き、今日も厳しいかもしれないが、粘ってみますか？と連絡が。私たちはとりあえず撮影場所に向かいました。するとなんと、祈りが通じたのか、雲はどこか遠くへ行き、星空が見えているではありませんか！！最終日に奇跡が起きました。撮りたいポーズも撮っていただき、また、提案もして頂いて素敵な写真が撮れて最高の
時間でした。流れ星も写って、素敵ですね。また宮古島に来る際はお願いしたいです。ありがとうございました！！

With the guidance of a lively guide, I had a truly valuable experience. I encountered coconut crabs and fireflies, which are experiences you usually can't have. I highly recommend it!

元気なガイドさんの案内のもと、本当に貴重な体験が出来ました。ヤシガニや蛍との出会いなど、普段は経験出来ない体験が出来ます。オススメですよ〜！

I was glad to see many creatures that are not usually seen, such as coconut crabs, scorpions, and the natural monument hermit crabs!

ヤシガニやサソリモドキ、天然記念物のヤドカリとか普段見られない生き物をたくさん見れたのでよかったです！

I participated with my 1-year-old child, and they took many kind and wonderful parent-child photos. Since it was a night with the moon out, we could only see one star, but we got some memorable photos from our trip to Miyako Island. Next time, I want to try again when the starry sky is beautiful! Thank you very much!

1歳の子供と参加しましたが、とても優しく様々な親子ショットを撮影していただきました。月が出ている日だったので星は1つしか見えませんでしたが、宮古島旅行の記念になる写真を撮っていただきました。次は星空が綺麗なタイミングでリベンジしたいと思います☆ありがとうございました！

We participated with six elementary school students and one middle school student. It seems they had a great time actually seeing the stars they learned about in school. The guide provided a detailed and interesting explanation while showing us the state of the sky as the stars became visible. Thank you for kindly answering the children's questions even after the event.

小学生6人中学生1人と参加しました。
学校で習った星を実際に見ることができ、とても楽しかったようです。ガイドの方は、この星が丁度見えるようになったので等空の状態を見ながら詳しくおもしろく説明してくれました。終わった後も子ども達の質問に丁寧に答えて頂きありがとうございました。

I took my 3-year-old and 5-year-old children with me. During the car ride to and from the tour, the guide shared various stories that kept the atmosphere lively, but my younger child fell into a deep sleep due to the late hour and slept through half of the tour (laughs). My timid older child was scared of the night jungle but still went on the exploration. The guide found two coconut crabs for us and showed us various insects and the beautiful starry sky. Although the children were frightened, I think experiencing the vitality and intensity of the night jungle was a valuable experience.

3歳と5歳の子どもを連れて行きました。行き帰りの車ではガイドさんが色んなお話をしてくれて盛り上げてくれましたが、下の子は時間が遅いのもあって爆睡してしまい、ツアー半ばまで寝てしまいました（苦笑）
ビビりの上の子は夜のジャングルに怖いと言いながら探検。ガイドさんがヤシガニを二匹も見つけてくれたり、色んな虫や綺麗な星空をみせてくれました。子どもは怖がってましたが、夜のジャングルの生命力や迫力を肌で感じるのも良い経験だったと思います。

I searched for and booked a night tour to enjoy my trip to Ishigaki without wasting time. Since I had never experienced entering a jungle before, the night jungle experience and stargazing made for a satisfying tour!

無駄無く石垣旅行を楽しむために夜のツアーを探して申し込みしました。
ジャングルに入ること自体経験ない所、夜のジャングル体験、星空観測もあったので満足なツアーでした！
