All Reviews for Stargazing

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！

I heard that the temperature has dropped, making it a day when you're less likely to encounter insects, but the mountain path at night, the dark sea, and the starry sky were all new experiences for a city kid like me. I was lucky to see a coconut crab up close enough to touch!

気温が下がり、虫に遭遇しずらい日だと聞きましたが、夜の山道と暗い海、星空、街育ちの子供には目新しいものばかりでした。
ヤシガニも触れるくらいすぐ近くで見られてラッキーでした！

I used this service during my 3-night, 4-day trip to Miyako Island.

From the morning of the first day, the weather looked suspicious, and as expected, we had to postpone the shooting at night due to difficult conditions. The next day, the clouds spread again, and we had to postpone once more. On the final day, the staff suggested, "If we push back the shooting time, we might be able to capture it. Please let us try," and we headed to the location.

As a result, after waiting about 10 minutes for the clouds to clear, a stunning starry sky unfolded before us, and we were able to shoot under the vast night sky and the Milky Way! The photographer also gave us advice on posing, making it a fun and unforgettable experience!

3泊4日の宮古島旅行で利用させて頂きました。
初日の朝から雲行きが怪しく、案の定、夜は撮影困難ということで延期。
次の日も雲が広がり、この日も延期。最終日はスタッフさんに「撮影時間を後ろ倒しにしたら撮れるかも。チャレンジさせてほしい」と言って頂き、現場に向かいました。
その結果、10分程度雲待ちすると満開の星空が広がり、視界いっぱいの夜空と天の川の下で撮影することができました！
ポージングもカメラマンさんにアドバイスして頂き、楽しく最高の体験になりました！

I was worried it might be cloudy, but fortunately, it was clear on the day, and I was able to see a perfect starry sky. I've been to several places with beautiful starry skies, but this might be the best. It was really great.
The jungle exploration was also very satisfying, as I encountered several coconut crabs and purple land hermit crabs.

曇らないか心配でしたが、当日は運良く晴れて、満点の星空を見ることができました。星空が綺麗なところにいくつか行ったことがありますが、ここが一番かもしれません。すごく良かったです。
ジャングル探索もヤシガニや紫オカヤドカリに何匹も会えて、大満足です。

I participated in the Stargazing Jungle Night Tour this time. First of all, the staff who guided us were bright and approachable, and they were very kind, allowing us to have a truly fulfilling time! As for the tour, both the starry sky and the jungle wildlife were in the best condition. We not only saw a sky full of stars but also shooting stars and the Milky Way for the first time in my life. The wildlife included a big hermit crab, sea snakes, and island-specific insects, all of which I saw for the first time! If I have the opportunity to visit Ishigaki Island again, I would definitely like to sign up!

今回、星空ジャングルナイトツアーに参加させてもらいました。まず案内していただいたスタッフさんが、明るく接しやすい方で、非常に親切に接していただき、非常に充実した時間を過ごすことが出来ました！ツアーに関しても、星空もジャングルの野生動物もベストなコンディションで、満点の星空はもちろんのこと、流れ星や人生初の天の川まで見れ、野生動物ではビッグサイズなヤドカリ、ウミヘビ、島特有サイズの虫など人生初で見れたものばかりでした！また石垣島へ訪れる機会がありましたら、ぜひ申し込みたいと思います！

We participated with two adults and a 4-year-old child. We were very satisfied as we could see not only the coconut crabs but also many other creatures, along with a beautiful starry sky. The guide was very curious and considerate of our lively child, which was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful time. This tour is highly recommended. Thank you very much.

夫婦2名と4歳の子連れで参加しました。
ヤシガニのほか多くの生き物のほか、綺麗な星空も見ることができて大変満足しています。
ガイドさんは好奇心旺盛でやんちゃな子供にも気遣ってくれて非常に助かりました。
とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。おすすめのツアーです。
ありがとうございました。

The guidance was smooth, and the person in charge was also from Kansai, making it easy to talk. The tour content was great, with beautiful stars, good weather, and an excellent guide!

案内もスムーズで担当の方が同じ関西出身の方で話がしやすかったです。
ツアー内容も、星がきれいで天気もよくガイドも最高でした！

There was no shuttle service, so we took a taxi to the location. We arrived about 10 minutes before the meeting time, but had to wait about 15 minutes longer than scheduled because the previous group’s shoot was running late. Once the shoot started, they gave clear instructions, and we were able to enjoy the session. The photos taken with great attention to detail turned out to be excellent.

特に送迎などはなく、タクシーで現地へ向かいました。集合時間の10分前くらいに着くと、前の組の撮影が押していたため、予定時刻より15分ほど待つことになりました。撮影がはじまると、スムーズに指示を出してくれて、楽しく撮影できました。拘りを持って撮影してもらった写真はとても良い写真ばかりでした。

There are no special facilities, but the beautiful starry sky with no lights around is the ultimate luxury. The explanation was enjoyable too. I thought the time would be short when I participated, but it was just the right length for families with children.

特別な施設は無いが、周囲に何も明かりがないきれいな星空が最高の贅沢。解説も楽しかった。時間は短いのかなと思って参加したが、子連れには丁度良い長さだった。

The instructions for the meeting place were unclear, yet they showed displeasure for not arriving on time. There were no other tour participants, so it wasn't a situation where anyone would be inconvenienced. I didn't feel any hospitality. I didn't see a single animal. I would have been better off relaxing in my room. I cannot recommend this at all.

待ち合わせ場所の指示が不明確なのが悪いのに、時間通りにつかなかったことに不機嫌をあらわにしてくる。他のツアー参加者もおらず、誰に迷惑かかる状況でもないのに。ホスピタリティを感じない。1匹も動物も見れなかった。これなら部屋でゆっくりしてたほうがマシだった。全くお勧めできない。

We had a wonderful family photo session for four. I was worried because it wasn't a sunny day, but perhaps it was because of the great location that we were able to see a beautiful starry sky, which was amazing!

The photos captured many stars that we couldn't see with the naked eye, making them even more stunning. The pictures taken with the illumination were also very cute.

I highly recommend it because the photographer leads the session in a great way!

家族4人でとても素敵に撮っていただきました。晴天ではなかったので心配でしたが、撮影場所がよいからでしょうかキレイな星空が見え最高でした！

写真は肉眼で捉えきれなかった星もたくさんあり、より映えます。イルミネーションを使っての写真もとても可愛かったです。

カメラマンの方が良い感じにリードしてくれるのでオススメです！

This time, I went to Ishigaki Island for a 2-night, 3-day trip and did various things. The best experience for my 6-year-old daughter, myself, and my mother was the stargazing tour. The weather was perfect, and we could see the Milky Way beautifully. The explanations of the stars using a laser pointer were incredibly easy to understand, making it feel like a real planetarium for an hour that flew by. I would love to come back in a different season to see other stars. Thank you very much.

今回、２泊３日で石垣島へ行き色々な事をしました。6年の娘も私、母親も一番良かったのが星空鑑賞ツアーです。
最高のお天気で天の川も綺麗に見えました。レーザーポイントを使って星の説明は凄く分かりやすく本当の星でのプラネタリウムであっという間の１時間でした。また、違う星の見える季節にも来たいです。ありがとうございました。

Thanks to the detailed explanations from staff member Nakamura, I was able to enjoy a wonderful night tour! They vividly explained interesting facts about spiders, insects, and constellations, which revived my childhood curiosity. I also finally spotted the long-awaited coconut crab! I was able to observe both a large coconut crab and a baby coconut crab. Although it was a tour, I was also shown beautiful beaches with stunning starry skies, allowing me to have a great time even after the tour. At the same time, I was able to appreciate the vastness and mystery of Miyako Island, and the hour and a half flew by. Thank you very much for this experience!

スタッフの中村さんの丁寧な解説のおかけで、楽しいナイトツアーを堪能することができました！蜘蛛や虫、星座の豆知識を生き生きと説明してくださり、子供の時の好奇心が蘇ってきました。そして念願のヤシガニもついに発見！大きいヤシガニと赤ちゃんヤシガニを観察することができました。ツアー街ですが、星空が綺麗なビーチも教えていただき、ツアー後にも楽しい時間を過ごす方ができました。同時に宮古島の広大さや神秘性も堪能でき、あっという間の1時間半でした。この度はありがとうございました！

I was able to finally find the coconut crab! I also encountered various creatures like turtles and owls. It was so much fun to explore and search for them in nature, so I'm really glad I participated! ◡̈

念願のヤシガニを見つけることができました！他にもカメやフクロウなど様々な生き物に出会えました。自然の中を進んで自分で探すのがとっても楽しかったので参加してよかったです◡̈

The clouds were covering the sky, and we waited a bit, but I'm glad we were able to take the photos. It was completely dark on the way to the shooting location, and the kids were scared, but the stars were incredibly beautiful.

雲がかかり少し待機したけど撮れてよかった。撮影場所までが真っ暗で子供達が怖がってたけど星はすごく綺麗だった。

I was able to encounter many creatures, such as the natural monument box turtle, habu snake, coconut crab, and glowing firefly larvae! The children were also very happy.
I could clearly see shooting stars and the Milky Way, and it was truly beautiful.
The guide was kind and had interesting stories, making for a fun time!

天然記念物のハコガメやハブ、ヤシガニ、光る蛍の幼虫など沢山の生き物に出会うことができたした！子どもも大喜びでした。
流れ星や天の川も、ハッキリ見れて本当に綺麗でした。
ガイドさんも親切でお話が面白くて、楽しい時間を過ごせました！

The meeting place was dark and hard to find, but they responded quickly to my call, and I was able to join the group. It was my first time doing a photo shoot, and they suggested poses, making the session go smoothly! The photos they sent me are really wonderful and became the best keepsake. I would definitely like to use their services again. If you're planning to use their services, it might be good to think about the kind of images you want to create!

集合場所が暗く、わかりにくかったですが、電話ですぐ対応していただき、合流出来ました。
写真撮影も初めてで、ポーズなども提案していただき、スムーズに撮影していただけました！
送っていただいた写真はとってもステキで最高の記念になりました。またぜひ利用させていただきたいです。
もし利用される方はこんなふうに撮りたいなど、イメージを膨らませていくといいかもしれません！

I finally made it to my long-awaited trip to Ishigaki Island! One of the things I planned was a night tour, which I booked from here! On the day of the tour, despite a few clouds in the sky, it started with the guide saying, "You rarely see a sunset like this!" and they kept the energy up with lots of conversation in the car!

When we arrived at the point and the tour began, the guide provided detailed explanations about various plants and creatures, as well as the terrain, making it really enjoyable! We spotted two coconut crabs, and even though there were some clouds, we were able to see the Milky Way at the guide's special spot!

This was the perfect start to my three-year-awaited trip to Ishigaki Island! The guide, Moepi, was amazing!! Thank you!!!

念願の石垣島旅行にやっと来れました！
色んなことを計画した中の一つにナイトツアーを選びこちらから予約しました！
当日、空に少し雲がかかる中、いきなりガイドさんの「こんな夕焼けなかなかないですよっ！」の一言から始まり、車中でもたくさん話してくれてテンションをあげてもらいました！
ポイントに着きツアーが始まると、色んな植物や生物の説明を詳しく教えてくれたり地形の説明などもおりまぜ楽しませてもらいました！ヤシガニも2匹見つかり、少し雲がかかっていた空もガイドさんのとっておきのポイントで天の川も見れました！
三年越しの石垣島旅行の最高のスタートになりました！
ガイドの『もえぴー』最高〜！！
ありがとー！！！

I only saw two coconut crabs, but thanks to the incredibly clear weather, I was able to see a sky full of stars! The Milky Way was so visible that I could even capture it on my smartphone.

ヤシガニ二匹しか見れませんでしたが、天気がめちゃめちゃ晴れてたおかげで満天の星空が見れました！天の川もスマホでも映れるくらいばっちり見えました。

The night tour was definitely the right choice!
I was able to see many creatures that I wouldn't normally encounter, such as coconut crabs, fireflies, and camel crickets.
Along the way, the guide shared many stories about Ishigaki Island. They were a wonderful guide.
The starry sky was also amazing.
This time, I participated with just my child, but the next time I come to Ishigaki Island, I want to join with the whole family.

It was a lot of fun. Thank you!

ナイトツアー、参加して大正解でした！
ヤシガニ、蛍、カマドウマなどなど、普段なら見ることのできない生物がたくさん見れました。
道中も、ガイドさんが石垣島のお話などたくさんしてくれました。すごく素敵なガイドさんでした。
星空も最高でした。
今回は子供と2人での参加でしたが、次に石垣島に来るときは家族みんなで参加したいです。

とても楽しかったです。ありがとうございました！

There was also a stargazing tour at the hotel, but I participated in this tour instead. The area around the observation site has almost no lights, so the number of stars is completely different from what you see from the hotel. Not only can you see the Milky Way, but if you're lucky, you might also catch a shooting star. The guide's stories are very interesting as well. I highly recommend it.

ホテルで星空ツアーもあったが、こちらのツアーに参加。
見学エリアの周りには、明かりがほとんどないため、ホテルからみる空とは星の量が全く違う。天の川はもちろんのこと、運が良ければ流れ星も見えることも。ガイドさんの話もとても面白い。オススメです。

It had quite a jungle feel to it. The kids were really excited. There were plenty of insects, birds, hermit crabs, coconut crabs, snakes, and owls. Thank you very much. However, since it was a night tour, the kids started to get sleepy towards the end... and the night view wasn't that impressive either (-_-;) It was a tour that lived up to its popularity. The guide was also very attentive, which made it reassuring for families with children. It was a great help!!

割とジャングル感あり
子供はテンション上がってました。
虫、鳥、ヤドカリ、ヤシガニ、ハブ、梟と盛沢山。
ありがとうございました。
なにぶん、ナイトツアーなだけに子供は終盤眠気が勝ります。。&夜景には然程、、でしたね(-_-;)
人気なのも納得なツアーでした。
ガイドさんも丁寧で子連れでも安心。助かりました！！

Thank you for today.
I was able to feel my daughter's growth as she, who is usually timid and doesn't touch living creatures, picked up a hermit crab.
We were able to see various creatures such as coconut crabs, crabs, fireflies, four types of crabs, lizards, and owls, and the stars were incredibly beautiful, which was a wonderful experience that we can't have in our everyday lives.
Both adults and children participated with excitement and enjoyment.
It was a nice point that our guide, Mr. Kimura, was very good at storytelling and paid attention to the children.

今日はありがとうございました。
いつもはびびりで生き物触れない娘がヤドカリを掴んでいて子どもの成長を感じることが出来ました。
生き物はヤシガニ、カニ、ホタル、カニ4種類、トカゲ、ミミズクを見ることができて、星がものすごくきれいに見えたのが普段暮らしているところではできないとてもいい体験ができました。
大人も子どももドキドキ楽しく参加できました。
ガイドの木村さんがとってもお話し上手で子どもにも気を配ってくれたのがうれしいポイントでした。

When I was abroad, I often got to see coconut crabs, but I was actually surprised to see such large coconut crabs here as well. It felt just like being overseas... (laughs) Jungle exploration is great, but for me, the starry sky was truly moving. The guide was someone who understood how to enjoy the experience from the customer's perspective, going beyond just being a regular guide. They not only showed us how to look at the sky but also taught us about the positions of the constellations and even how to take photos of the starry sky with an iPhone. I was impressed by their high level of hospitality. Thank you for everything!

海外にいた頃はよくヤシガニ観れてましたが、ここでも大きなヤシガニを見ることが出来、実は驚いてました。まるで、海外みたいだなと…（笑）ジャングル探検も良いですが、私には満点の星空がとても感動的でした。普通のガイドさん以上に、顧客目線での楽しみ方を心得てる方がガイドさんでしたので、単に空を眺めることだけではなく、星座の位置や、iPhone でも星空の撮影方法まで教えてくださり、ホスピタリティ度が高いなと感心です。色々ありがとうございました！

Although it was a same-day reservation, the guide provided detailed knowledge throughout the night safari and taught us about various plants and animals, including coconut crabs, hermit crabs, and crabs. After the rain, the stars were beautifully visible.

当日予約でしたが、ガイドの方がナイトサファリ道中詳しい知識で色々と教えてくださり、ヤシガニやヤドカリ、蟹など色々と動植物を見ることができました。雨が降った後で星も綺麗に見えました
