All Reviews for 沖繩活動

Taketomi Island is a wonderful place. The water buffalo cart ride made me feel relaxed. It was also great to be able to move freely, like going to the beach on a rental bicycle. I thought this kind of plan is enjoyable because you don't have to worry about what to do next.

As for my mistake, I panicked because I was unsure about where to park the rental car and almost didn't make it on time for the meeting. It's better to allow a little extra time.

竹富島はいいところですね。水牛車ものんびりした気持ちになれました。レンタサイクルで海岸に行ったりと自由に動けたのもよかったです。こういったプランは次どうするかをいちいち気にしなくて済むので楽だと思いました。
私の失敗としてはレンタカーの駐車場をどうするか迷ったために集合時間に間に合いそうになく本当に焦りました。ちょっと時間に余裕をみたほうがいいですね。

I participated with my mother, and everyone was very kind and accommodating.

Since it was just after the typhoon, the sea was said to be more beautiful than usual, and it was the most stunning snorkeling experience I've had so far.

The cave was crowded because it was just before the Obon holiday, but even while waiting, the guide shared stories about the sea and delicious gourmet food, so we never felt bored.

The photos were also free, making for a great keepsake. I'm grateful for the wonderful memories created.

母と参加しましたが、皆さんとても親切に対応してくださいました。

台風が過ぎた直後だったこともあり、海がいつもより綺麗だったそうで、今までのシュノーケリングで一番綺麗でした。

洞窟の中は、お盆前ということもあり混雑していましたが、待機の間もガイドの方が海の話しや美味しいグルメの話をして下さり、暇をもてあますこともありませんでした。

写真も無料だったので良い記念になりました。
良い思い出ができ感謝です。

This tour was great for accomplishing a lot in one day. The free food was of good quality and there are many chances to get souvenirs. It's a great deal since travelling in Okinawa can be quite complicated and expensive, especially since the bus routes aren't available on Google Maps. This tour was good compared to others because you have 3 hours to explore the aquarium and its surrounding attractions; any less and you'd be in a rush. The tour guide was also very kind and did some great singing of Okinawan songs! The tour is in Japanese with English audio guides; if you are learning Japanese and want to try and listen to the Japanese explanations, the language was quite complicated, so I recommend the audio guide as a backup.

We used the bus that stops at our hotel in Ginowan City, which was convenient. The bus made stops at various hotels, so the ride was long and tiring. However, I think the young bus guide made an effort to keep us entertained by sharing Okinawan folk tales and singing songs. I was surprised by how large the whale shark tank was. I'm glad I came, but by the time we returned to the hotel, it was nearly 8 PM and I was exhausted. I think this tour is convenient for those who do not rent a car.

私達が宿泊している宜野湾市のホテルにも寄ってくれるバスで便利なので利用しました。色んなホテルに寄って行くのでバスに乗る時間が長くて疲れました。
でも、若いバスガイドさんが沖縄の民話を教えてくれたり、歌を歌ってくれたりと飽きないような配慮があったと思います。
ジンベイザメの水槽はとても大きくて驚きました。来て良かったと思いますが、ホテルに戻る頃には夜8時近くになって疲れました。レンタカーを利用しない方には便利なツアーかと思います。

For just under $50, the tour included the bus ride-round-trip, the tickets for Pineapple Park, Butterfly Garden, Churami Aquarium, and the souvenir shop that is quite cheap (plus they give you a coupon). It was really worth it and they give you adequate time to see the attractions!

I chose this tour since I can't ride ships for a long time. the time we spent below watching the fish was not that long but it was enough to enjoy them and take pictures. the crew even tried to throw food to attract fish who gathered around the ship.
I highly recommend to combine it with the buffet, the lunch at Nest hotel was so delicious especially the dessert and fruits section.

I was surprised that I could make a reservation just two days ago! The bus guide's dance was cute! It was fun even though it was cloudy!

2日前からでも予約ができることにびっくり！
バスのガイドさんの踊りかわいかったです！
曇りでも楽しかった！

It was great to leisurely explore the island by water buffalo cart. The cute water buffalo and the sound of the sanshin were also wonderful!

水牛車でのんびりと島内を散策できてとてもよかった。
かわいい水牛との記念写真や三線の音色もよかった！

On March 16, I participated in this tour with my elderly parents, two children, my wife, and myself, totaling six people. The tour included transportation from the hotel to the remote island terminal, a high-speed ferry from Ishigaki Port to Ohara Port on Iriomote Island, a mangrove tour boat on the Nakama River, and a sightseeing bus to the ox cart boarding area for Yufu Island, all of which were well coordinated, allowing us to participate with great peace of mind.

Moreover, the boat driver for the mangrove tour and the bus driver to the ox cart boarding area provided explanations that rivaled those of a guide, making it very interesting to listen to them. In particular, the bus driver shared many details about the uniqueness of Iriomote Island, including the food chain where special natural monuments eat other special natural monuments and various efforts made for the protection of the Iriomote wildcat, all while mixing in some jokes, which made it very enjoyable. My parents, who joined us, also said, "That bus guide was really great," and I believe it was a tour that left us all very satisfied. Thank you for the truly wonderful memories. It was a great way to show appreciation to my parents.

3/16に高齢の両親、子供2人、妻と私の6人でこのツアーに参加しました。
ツアーは、ホテルから離島ターミナル間の送迎が付いていた上、石垣港から西表島大原港までの高速フェリー、仲間川マングローブツアーの遊覧ボート、由布島への牛車乗り場までの観光バス等、全てが連動していて非常に安心して参加できました。
おまけにマングローブツアーの遊覧ボートの運転手さん、由布島への牛車乗り場までの観光バスの運転手さんがガイドさん顔負けの説明をしてくれて、興味深く聞かせてもらいました。
特にバスの運転手さんは、時折ジョークも交えて西表島の特異性(特別天然記念物が特別天然記念物を食べるという食物連鎖が起きていること、イリオモテヤマネコ保護にいろいろな工夫がなされていること等)を非常に詳しく、楽しく聞かせていただきました。一緒に行った両親も「あのバスガイドさん、凄く良かったね」と言っておりましたし、大満足のツアーだったと思います。本当に楽しい思い出をありがとうございました。良い親孝行ができました。

This time, we traveled with our dog, but we couldn't ride together on the water buffalo cart. However, they took good care of him at the office, and he had a great time. Since he's a dog, I was worried he would bark when he saw the water buffalo, but there's nothing we can do about that. Thank you for the wonderful time.

今回は我が家のワンちゃんと一緒に旅をしましたが、水牛車では一緒に乗ることはできませんでしたが、事務所で預かって頂いて確り楽しませてもらいました。
やはり犬なので水牛を見つけると吠えるので心配でしたが、これもまたしょうがない。
楽しい時間を有り難うございます。

I went on a company trip.
Since it was the off-season, I was looking for things to enjoy and made a discovery!

The boat sways quite a bit, so I recommend bringing motion sickness medication or purchasing it locally. Also, since the weather was drizzly, I bought a raincoat on-site (I rated it 4 stars due to the unfavorable weather). It’s better to bring one if rain is in the forecast.

I was satisfied to see whales up close, more than I expected! It was an exciting tour since you never know when they will suddenly appear, but it became a great memory.

The staff were all very kind. If you're planning to visit Okinawa during this season, I highly recommend giving it a try!

社員旅行で行きました。
オフシーズンなので何が楽しめるか探していたところ、発見！

船は結構揺れるので、酔い止めは必ず持って行くか現地で購入をおススメします。また、天候は小雨だったので現地でレインコートを購入。（天気に恵まれずで☆４つです）
こちらも事前に雨予報であれば持参するのがベターです。

思っていたよりも近くでクジラが見れて満足でした！
どこから急に現れるかがわからないので、ドキドキしたりあっという間のツアーでしたが、良い思い出になりました。

スタッフの方も皆さんとても親切でした。
この季節に沖縄に行く方は是非一度行ってみてはいかがでしょうか？

As a beginner in Okinawa and lacking confidence in driving, I participated in this tour. As a result, I was very satisfied. The guide, Mr. Oshima, provided excellent explanations, guidance, and performance.

I highly recommend this tour.

沖縄初心者で運転に自信がないので、このツアーに参加しました。
結果、大変満足できました。
ガイドさんの大城さんも説明や案内、パフォーマンスが
最高でした。

おすすめのツアーです。

I participated on March 10. I was really looking forward to doing SUP during sunset, which I had been interested in for a while. There were waves, so I couldn't stand for a long time, but it was fun to fall into the sea. The sunset was beautiful too. Next time, I want to stand and enjoy the sunset slowly when there are no waves. It was a great experience. Thank you for the careful instruction.

3月10日に参加しました。
以前から興味のあったSUPが、夕陽の中出来るということで、すごく楽しみにしていました。
波があり、なかなか長い間立っていられませんでしたが、
海に落ちるのも楽しかったです。
夕陽もキレイでした。
次は波のない時に、立って、ゆっくりと夕陽が見たいですね。
良い経験でした。
丁寧に指導してくださり、ありがとうございました。

The powerful and graceful swimming姿 is something you can watch for a long time. When you go to Okinawa, I definitely recommend stopping by. You can touch the starfish. Gently place it in your hand and return it to the water; it will be a great experience. Please handle them gently.

迫力と優美に泳ぐ姿はずっと見ていられます｡沖縄に行った際には､是非とも立ち寄って欲しいです｡ヒトデには触れる事が出来ます｡そっと手に乗せて､水中に戻せば､良い経験になります｡優しく接して下さい｡

You can check the situation on the bulletin board on the day. Last time it was LEVEL-4 and I couldn't see anything at all, but this time it was 3. The lunch at Nest Hotel was delicious, and I recommend the ice cream dessert with chinsuko. I think it's a good thing that it's not from a famous ice cream company in Okinawa.

当日の様子を掲示板で確認､出来ます｡前回はLEVEL-4で全く見られず､今回は3でした｡またネストホテルのランチも美味しかったし､デザートのアイスはちんすこうがお勧めです｡沖縄で有名なアイスクリームの会社ではないのが､逆に良かったと思います｡

For those who want to explore the remote islands in a nutshell, I recommend it because you can visit various places in one day! The water buffalo cart from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island crosses the strait and offers wonderful scenery, which was very nice. The atmosphere is different from the water buffalo cart experience on Taketomi Island, so I was glad to have that experience in one day! Unfortunately, the lunch was not delicious. Also, it was disappointing that the female driver and guide for the bus tour on Taketomi Island had poor service. For those who are concerned about the boat's swaying, I recommend the premium seat on the boat (500 yen)!

とりあえずざっくり離島を巡りたいって方には
1日で色んな所へ行けるのでおすすめです！
西表島から由布島へ渡る水牛車は海峡を渡り

船の揺れが気になるって方には船のプレミアム
シート(500円)がおすすめです！

I watched a video on how to create it, followed the steps to shape the clay, let it dry, and then added color. It became a great memory.

作成方法のビデオを見て、それに沿って粘土で形を作って、乾かして、色をつけるという流れでした。いい思い出になりました。

I don't drive, so it was great that I could explore areas that are not accessible by monorail by car. The aquarium could have been open for a little longer.

自分は運転しないので、モノレールでいけない範囲を車で回っていただけたのは良かったです。
水族館の時間がもう少し長くてもよかったかもしれません。

Since there was a family member who got seasick, we decided to skip the island hopping and only took a tour of Taketomi Island. The high-speed boat ride was quick. The water buffalo cart was also very nice, but there were some photo stops that were a bit of a hassle. I think it's unnecessary when riding a bicycle...

I believe a bicycle is the best way to explore the town. Even though it was March, it was hot. Both Kondoi Beach and Kaiji Beach were beautiful and impressive. It's a bit more than a 10-minute bike ride, but definitely worth it! If you make a reservation in advance, the guidance is quicker, so I recommend checking the weather and booking ahead.

船酔いする家族がいたので、離島巡りは断念し竹富島のみのツアーでした。
高速船で、あっという間です。
水牛車もとても良かったですが、所々写真撮影があって、ちょっと面倒くさかったです。
自転車乗る時のは不要だと思います…

街中を巡るなら自転車がベストだと思います。
3月とは言え、暑かったので。
コンドイ浜、カイジ浜共に綺麗で感動しました。自転車で10分以上ですが、ぜひ！
予約しておくと案内が早いので、お天気を見て予約をオススメします。

The water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island takes you around the village, offering a different charm compared to Yubu Island, and it was enjoyable (*´∇｀*). After that, I went to Nishizaki Pier, Koidoi Beach, and Hoshizuna no Hama to take photos... I wanted to take my time at my own pace, so I chose cycling! It was a bit sweaty, but it felt really nice! However, be careful in the village as the gravel can catch your tires and make you almost fall!

こちら竹富島の水牛車は集落をまわるので、由布島とまた違った赴きがあり、楽しかったです(*´∇｀*)
その後は西桟橋・コイドイビーチ・星砂の浜へ写真を撮りに…自分のペースで時間を使いたいので、サイクリングを選びました！少し汗ばむくらいでしたが、とても気持ち良かったです！
でも集落内は砂利でタイヤをとられて転けそうになったりしたので、要注意です！

I was very moved to see a mother and baby whale at such a close distance. The male whale's tail was very large and impressive, which was great.

かなり近い距離でクジラの親子を見れたことにとても感動しました。彼氏クジラの尾びれがとても大きくて迫力があって良かったです

During my last trip, I visited Cape Hedo. However, due to bad weather, I couldn't climb Mount Oishi. This time, I was fortunate to join a great tour. I had fun all day long. Next year, I want to participate in a different tour.

前回旅行した際、辺戸岬にはいったのですが。天気が悪かったので大石林山には登れませんでした。今回良いツァーに恵まれました。一日中楽しかったです。来年は別のツァーで参加したいです。

I had a wonderfully relaxing time in Ishigaki and exploring Taketomi Island. I definitely want to go back. Next time, I’d like to experience the night and early morning life on Taketomi Island!

石垣宿泊～竹富島観光
すごくのんびりした時間を過ごせます。
絶対また行きたくなります。
今度は夜＆早朝の竹富島生活をしてみたいな‼

Even from the TV images, I couldn't grasp the size of the whale until I saw it in person. I was able to truly experience its enormity! I saw the tails, flippers, sides, backs, and heads of the mother and baby whales. The boat smoothly approached the whales, and I felt the splash of water on my face, creating a wonderful memory that surpassed the videos I took on my phone. The two instructors were so cool and reliable, it felt like a waste to just call them "ladies." Their veteran presence brought a sense of security, and their fun whale talks created a friendly atmosphere on the crowded boat. I'm really glad I chose this tour. I definitely want everyone to experience this excitement!

TV画像で見ても、数値を家に落としても実感出来なかったクジラのデカさを
シッカリ見て体感出来ました◎
クジラ親子の尾も手ビレも脇腹も背も頭も見て来ました。船はするするクジラに接近するので、クジラの水しぶきがハラッと顔にかかり、携帯に撮れた動画より素敵な思い出になってます。2人のインストラクターさんが、女子にしとくの 勿体無い程カッコよく、男らしく頼もしくて素敵でした。ベテランさんの放つ安心感、楽し〜クジラトークで他人だらけの船内は和気あいあいの雰囲気になり、こちらのツアーを選んで良かったです。
是非是非 この興奮を皆さんも体験してほしいです！

I took advantage of an unexpected long weekend for a solo trip to Okinawa.
I want to go to the aquarium! I want to see the blue ocean!
...But I thought I couldn't go because I don't have a car...
However, the sightseeing bus took me there! ☺️

Since the Yui Rail only runs partially,
I was really glad to have the sightseeing bus!
I had a great time!

急にとれた連休を利用しての沖縄一人旅。
水族館に行きたい！青い海がみたい！
…しかし車がないから行けないか…
と思っていたのですが、観光バスさんが連れてってくれました☺️

ゆいレールは一部しか走っていないので、
観光バスがあって本当に良かった！
満喫できました

I was starting to feel like I wouldn't be able to see any whales today... just as I was giving up, two dolphins appeared! Even just seeing the dolphins was great. But the moment I accepted that I wouldn't see any whales, a whale appeared right in front of us! The kids on the boat were so excited!! It was truly a happy and wonderful experience!

なかなかクジラに会えず、今日は見れない日なのかな…と、諦めモードになった時に2匹のイルカが！そしてイルカを見れただけでもいいよね。とクジラを諦めた瞬間にすぐ目の前に現れたのがクジラでした！一緒に船に乗っていた子供達と大興奮！！本当に嬉しい幸せな体験でした〜！

Okinawa has high bus fares and limited service, making it difficult to explore on your own, but this tour was great as it offered affordable prices and fun sightseeing spots. The only downside was the extremely short stay at Nago Pineapple Park. When there are too many stops, it feels rushed at each location, so I think a bit more time overall would be appreciated.

沖縄は路線バスの運賃が高く本数も少ないので、あちこち個人で巡るのは難儀ですが、こちらのツアーはお手頃価格で楽しい観光スポットを回ってくれるので良かったです。唯一、ナゴパイナップルパークでの滞在時間が極端に少なかったのが残念。立ち寄る場所が多すぎると、どの場所も駆け足になってしまうので、全般的に若干ゆとりが欲しいかなという感じもします。

It was rainy from the morning of the day. Once we boarded and headed offshore, we were lucky to encounter a mother and calf whale early on! We couldn't see any jumps, but that's just how whales are. For safety, we had to sit on the floor outside the boat, which left our feet soaked, so I recommend wearing a longer poncho. Since you'll be returning with your makeup smudged and wet clothes, I suggest opting for a hotel pickup!

当日は朝から雨模様。乗船し沖合に出ると早い時間に母子のクジラに遭遇！ラッキー。ジャンプなどは見ることはできませんでしたが、クジラの気分次第なので致し方ありません。船外では安全のため体育座りで見学するため、足がずぶ濡れになってしまうので、長めのポンチョの着用をお勧めします。お化粧崩れ＆濡れた衣服を着たまま帰えるので、ホテル送迎付きはお勧め！

As an international tourist, the waiting area was quite crowded. There were three boats departing, so there were a considerable number of participants.

In that situation, the staff did not proactively offer assistance, so if you don't actively ask questions or take initiative, you will likely be left behind.

The departure was almost on time, and when the whales started to appear, we were guided to the second floor, which was said to have a better view. However, there were too many participants, and not everyone could go up to the second floor. The staff mentioned that they would later switch people between the first and second floors so that those on the first floor could also see from the second floor, so I trusted that and waited on the first floor.

However, the staff seemed preoccupied with taking photos for their own advertising during our time at sea, and there was hardly any explanation. The promised switch between the first and second floors never happened. Even when we could see the whales, I believe the staff's attitude and words were misleading, and I don't think they will be trusted in the future.

海外からの観光客で、待合所の中はごった返していました。船が３隻出ていたので、かなりの数の参加者でした。
そんな中、スタッフは、いちいち親切に声をかけてはくれませんので、自分で積極的に聞いたり動かないと、おそらく置いてけぼりをくらいます。
ほぼ時間通りに出航し、鯨が見え始めると、スタッフからよく見えると言う2階に案内されますが、参加人数が多過ぎて、全員は2階に上がれませんでした。
ただスタッフが、あとで1階と2階にいる人を入れ替えて、1階にいる人も2階で見えるようにしますとおっしゃっていたので、その言葉を信じて、1階でずっと待機していました。
しかし、スタッフは、自社の広告に使うためか、海上での滞在中ずっと写真撮影に夢中で、説明は殆どないし、肝心の1階と2階の入れ替えはないまま終了しました。
鯨が見えても、スタッフの態度や言葉に偽りありでは、今後信用されないと思います。

Joining the tour that efficiently visits the three islands was definitely the right choice. The boat to Iriomote Island was quite rocky, so it might be a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. I chose the rental bicycle plan, and since I could choose the return boat, I was able to explore the island at a leisurely pace without worrying about time.

効率よく3島を周れるツアーで参加して大正解でした。
西表島に向かう船はかなり揺れたので酔い止め持参で行った方が良いかもしれません。
レンタサイクルプランを選びましたが、帰りの船が選べたので、時間を気にせずゆっくり島内を周ることができました。
