All Reviews for 沖繩活動

My partner is an experienced scuba diver, but I was very anxious since it was my first time snorkeling and I can't swim. However, I participated as a birthday challenge and to create memories. Contrary to my anxiety, thanks to our instructor Shion, I was able to experience an absolutely wonderful time in the sea. This has inspired me to try scuba diving next. The atmosphere among the other staff was also great, and I will definitely join Adventure Island's tours again when I visit Okinawa. Lastly, thank you for all your thoughtful care and for taking so many photos.

相方はスキューバー経験者ですが、私は初シュノーケリングに加えて泳げないので、とても不安でしたが、お誕生日の挑戦＆思い出にと参加しました。。不安とは裏原に、インストラクターのシオンさんのお陰で最高に素敵な海時間を体験する事が出来ました。これを機に次はスキューバーに挑戦したいと思います。他のスタッフの皆様の雰囲気も良く、又、沖縄を訪れる際には冒険島さんのツアーに参加させて頂きます。
最後になりましたが、色々なお気遣い、そしてたくさんの写真を撮って頂きありがとうございました。

I participated in a tour that took us from Ishigaki Island by boat to Iriomote Island, and then to Yubu Island and Taketomi Island.

On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed a boat tour of the Nakama River, where the guide provided detailed information about the island's features and plants, making it a lot of fun.

After having lunch on Yubu Island, we were free to explore the island at our own pace, which was very relaxing. Riding the water buffalo across the river was particularly interesting, and the small children riding with us were thrilled. After a leisurely time on Yubu Island, we headed to Taketomi Island.

On Taketomi Island, we started with a bus tour. Since it was a large group tour, I was a bit worried about whether I would enjoy the bus sightseeing, but the bus driver kindly shared information about the island's features and made stops at viewpoints and beaches, allowing us to enjoy the sightseeing. Thanks to the bus driver teaching us how to find star sand, we were able to discover a lot, which was great.

It was especially hot that day, and since the roads on Taketomi Island are covered in sand, it seemed like biking would be difficult, so the bus tour was definitely the right choice. After the bus tour, we leisurely explored the island by water buffalo cart. I thought I would be tired after visiting three islands, but it was a well-organized tour that allowed us to take our time.

石垣島から船で西表島に息、その後、由島、竹富島と３島を巡るツアーに参加しました。
西表島は仲間川を船で観光しましたが、船のガイドの方が島の特徴や植物のことを丁寧に教えてくれて、とっても楽しかったです。
由布島ではお昼ご飯を食べた後は自由に島をまわれて、ゆっくりできました。特に水牛にのって川を渡って行くのはとても面白く、一緒に乗っていた小さい子どもたちも大喜びでした。由布島でのんびりした後は、竹富島へ。
竹富島ではまずバス観光をしました。大人数のツアーだったこともあるので、バス観光で楽しめるかなと不安に思っていましたが、バスの運転手さんが丁寧に島の特徴を教えてくれ、ビューポイントやビーチに寄ってくれたので、楽しく観光することができました。星砂もバスの運転手さんが見つけ方を教えてくれたおかげで、たくさん見つけられ、とても良かったです。
特にその日はとても暑く、竹富島は道路が砂で覆われており自転車だと大変そうだったので、バス観光は正解でした。バス観光の後は水牛車でゆっくり島を巡り、３島まわって疲れるのかなと思っていましたが、至れり尽くせりのツアーでとてもゆっくり巡ることができました。

I participated in this experience diving in May! It was the start of the rainy season, so I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be a sunny day, which was great!

Before entering the water, the instructor kindly explained how to breathe and how to handle situations when water gets in, making it very easy to understand. Thank you so much! Since it was my sister and I's first time diving, we were really nervous, and at first, it was tough to even breathe underwater, so we couldn't stay submerged for long (･_･;).

Even though you explained everything so thoroughly, I got flustered and couldn't really put it into practice underwater, but with your assistance, I managed to dive for a few minutes, haha.

We weren't able to dive well together, and I sincerely apologize to the instructor for causing so much trouble (´･_･`).

Although we couldn't make it to the Blue Cave, we were truly moved by the beauty of the ocean in Okinawa, and it became a wonderful memory!

After diving, there was a space in the shop with a hairdryer and mirror where we could sit and use them, which was really helpful since we were heading out for sightseeing afterward!!

Next time, I want to try again and make it to the Blue Cave! Thank you very much!!

5月にこちらの体験ダイビングに参加させて頂きました！
梅雨に入る時期で天気が不安でしたが、その日は晴れてくれてよかったです＊

海に入る前に、呼吸の仕方から水が入ったときの対処法など丁寧に分かりやすくご説明して頂いて、ありがとうございました☆
姉妹揃って初めてのダイビングということで、とても緊張していて、始めは水中で息をすることすら辛くてなかなか長く潜ることが出来きませんでした(･_･;)

せっかく丁寧にご説明して頂いたのに、焦ってしまってなかなか海の中では実践できないところもありましたが、補助をして頂きながらなんとか数分潜ることが出来ました笑

私たちが2人揃って上手く潜ることが出来なく、担当して頂いたお兄さんには沢山ご迷惑を掛けてしまい本当申し訳ありませんでした(´･_･`)

青の洞窟までは行けなかったのですが、沖縄の海の綺麗さにとっても感動でき、素敵な思い出になりました！

ダイビング後は、お店にドライヤーや鏡などが座って使えるスペースがあり、これから観光をしに行く側としてはとても助かりました！！

次は青の洞門まで辿り着けるようリベンジしたいです♬
ありがとうございました！！

Churaumi Aquarium was a lot of fun! The guide and the driver were both nice, and it became a wonderful memory.

However, it was indeed written in the itinerary that "all-you-can-eat pineapple is included!" but it was not actually provided.

I went with my fiancé, and since we both love pineapple, we were really looking forward to the all-you-can-eat option.

So, I have some dissatisfaction... It was very disappointing.

美ら海水族館、とても楽しかったです！
ガイドさんも運転手さんもいい方で、素敵な想い出になりました。

ただ、旅程に確かに｢パイナップル食べ放題付いてます！｣と書いてあったのですが、実際はありませんでした。

婚約者と一緒に行ったのですが、パイナップルが大好きなので食べ放題をとても楽しみにしていました。

なので不満が残っています･･･
非常に残念でした

The weather was nice on the day of the visit, and although time flew by, I enjoyed sightseeing on Taketomi Island at the slow pace of the water buffalo cart!

当日は天気も良く、時間はあっという間だけど水牛車のゆっくりスピードで竹富島を観光できて楽しかったです！

We booked our tour on a Saturday to go to the Blue Cave. As this was my first ocean snorkeling experience, I was not sure what to expect but the minute I put my mask in the water I was hooked! The water was crystal clear and the wave action was very gentle. The only major issue that I had with the whole event was that the cave staging area was PACKED with people and boats. It was fun getting to see the fish and coral and other sea life and we didn't care too much about the congestion outside of the cave but inside was a different matter. There were so many scuba divers and other snorkelers in the cave that you sometimes hit them with your swim fins and it was really crowded waiting for you turn at the photography area. Feeding the fish was fun and they swam very close. Our guide was very apologetic about the congestion, and we were having so much fun we assured him we understood and were still happy with our first experience. It remains one of our favorite memories even with the traffic jam. Next time we will book the tour on a weekday to help reduce the congestion but overall the trip was great for a first time!

I went on my first trip to Okinawa during Golden Week. I made a reservation for two people because I wanted to go snorkeling in the ocean.

We went to the designated meeting place, filled out a waiver, and quickly changed into the wetsuits we were given. There was no explanation about changing areas, and since I happened to wear my swimsuit under my clothes, I ended up changing in front of many men.

Regarding our belongings, we could only take waterproof phones on the boat, and I was considering putting our bags in the car since there were no lockers. However, the parking lot was about 100 meters away from the building, making it difficult to move in a wetsuit. As a result, we were almost forced to use a paid (non-refundable) locker for our belongings. Many of the staff members here were a bit overbearing. I wouldn't recommend this for families or couples.

After changing, we took our fins and snorkels and moved to a regular van for about a five-minute ride. Therefore, we had to split into several groups for both the outbound and return trips. Once we arrived at the boat location, we headed straight for the Blue Cave. It was easy to identify the spot because there were dozens of boats anchored around. There were indeed a lot of people. Since we were snorkeling, we could see from the surface, but at any given moment, there were divers below... (laughs) I suppose this isn't the tour's fault, but it was unavoidable. Were we there to see the fish or to watch the divers? (laughs)

Amidst the crowd and getting kicked by fins, we finally made it inside the Blue Cave. There was a long line. We waited for 30 minutes to an hour to take pictures at the spot where the water appears the bluest. Of course, I had no intention of waiting, so I went with the instructor and other participants towards the ocean. It was time for the fish feeding experience! Fish I had never seen before, likely from a tropical fish store, gathered in front of me seeking food. I was truly moved by their beauty. Although I spent more time watching the fish than actually seeing the Blue Cave, I felt like, "Well, at least I got to see the ocean..."

After coming out of the water, we returned to the changing area to prepare for our departure. There were no shampoo, conditioner, body soap, or towels available. The only things provided were a hairdryer, lotion, and sunscreen. Women should be cautious about this.

Access was easy, but I think I might choose a different tour company next time.

GWに初沖縄旅行。
沖縄に行ったら、海に潜りたいと2名で予約して参加しました。

指定された集合場所へ行き、誓約書を書き、渡されたウェットスーツにすぐに着替えます。
着替え場所などは説明がなく、たまたま洋服の下に水着を着て行ったので男性もたくさんいる中着替えをする羽目になりました。

荷物に関しては、防水携帯くらいしか船には持って行けず、ロッカーがなかったら車に荷物を入れておこうと考えていたのですが、駐車場は建物より１００メートル程度離れており、ウェットスーツで移動するのは困難でした。
そのため、ほぼ強制的に有料(返金なし)のロッカーに荷物を入れることに。。
ここのスタッフの方は、少し高圧的な方が多いです。
家族連れやカップルにはおすすめしません。

さて、着替えを済ませフィンやシュノーケルは自分で持ち移動者へ。
通常のワンボックスカーで５分程度の道を移動します。
そのため、行きも帰りも何便かに分かれて移動になります。
船の場所へ着いたら、早速青の洞窟方面へ。
場所は見てすぐ分かりました。何故なら周辺に何十隻もの船が乗り付けて停泊しているからです。
人はほんとにたくさんいました。
私たちはシュノーケルでしたので海面から覗くのですが、どのタイミングにも海中にはダイビングの方々が、、、(笑)
これはツアーのせいでは全くないのでしょうがないとは思います。
魚を見に来たのか、潜ってる人を見に来たのか。(笑)
さて、たくさんの人にもまれながら、フィンで蹴られながら遂に青の洞窟内です。
んんん。長蛇の列があります。
30分から1時間待ち。それは最も青く写る場所での写真撮影ポイントの待ち列でした。
もちろん、待つ気はなくインストラクターさんと他の参加者の方と海の方へ。
魚の餌付け体験です！
熱帯魚の販売店でか見たことのない魚たちが目の前に餌を求めて集まってきます。
これには綺麗さに本当に感動しました。
青の洞窟を見るよりかは、海の方で魚を見てる時間の方が多かったですが、本当に人だらけ「まあ、海見れたし・・・」という気分になりました。

海から上がり着替え場所へもどり、帰り支度です。
シャンプー・リンス・ボディーソープ・タオルなど一切ありません。
あるのは、ドライヤーと化粧水、日焼け止めのみ。
女性の方は要注意です。

アクセスはしやすかったですが、次回は他のツアー会社にしようかなと思いました。

My first trip to Okinawa.
On the first day of my arrival, I experienced this mangrove kayaking.

I wanted to kayak, see the mangroves, and catch the sunset! I participated with high expectations for these three major attractions.

First of all, I went by rental car, but I was unsure if I was at the right place as the signs were not very clear, and I felt anxious as I headed to the meeting point at the fishing port. However, they quickly recognized me by my rental car number and guided me through the procedures for filling out the waiver and changing clothes.
Regarding changing, there were two single-person triangular tents placed in a building surrounded on three sides, where both men and women could change. The restroom was unisex, which was a bit confusing.

Once all participants gathered, we received a brief instruction on how to hold the paddle and paddle from the shore, and then we boarded the kayak. It was a two-person boat. Since there were only two of us, it was not a problem, but for those in groups of three, they had to pair with someone else, so I think it's better to participate in even numbers.

First, we lightly paddled around the mangroves. The instructor was very friendly, but they mostly introduced their own background rather than sharing more about Okinawa, which I, as a traveler, wanted to know more about. Furthermore, the person in charge mentioned they had only been in Okinawa for a few months. When I asked for recommendations for places to eat after the activity or for sightseeing spots for the next day, the only response was that they weren't very familiar with Okinawa... Hmm.
Of course, I understand that guiding is not their main job, but still... I felt a sense of distrust. I strongly thought that there are many mangrove tours available, and I didn't need to choose this company. I was left feeling dissatisfied with both the cleanliness of the facilities and the content of the experience.

They did teach us how to paddle without getting tired just as we were about to return to the fishing port... The sunset was viewed from almost the same position as out at sea. I think it would be better to improve a bit more before holding the tour.

I was very disappointed given my high expectations.

初めての沖縄旅行。
到着初日にこのマングローブカヤックを体験いたしました。

カヤック乗りたい、マングローブも見たい、サンセットも見られる！
そんな３大魅力に期待を抱き参加いたしました。

まず初めに、レンタカーで行ったのですが看板がよくわからずここで良いのかな？と不安になりながら集合場所の漁港へ。
すぐにレンタカーナンバーで参加者だということに気付いてくださり、誓約書の記載や着替えなどの手順を教えてくださりました。
着替えに関しては、一人用の三角テントが３方を囲われた建物に２つ置いてあり、そこで男女ともに着替える感じでした。
お手洗いも、男女両用で少し戸惑いが隠せませんでした。

さて、参加者が全員そろい陸上でパドルの持ち方から漕ぎ方まで軽く指導していただき、早速乗船。２名一組の船でした。私たちは２人参加でしたので全く問題なかったのですが、３名組の方たちは一人違う方と組む形になるので偶数での参加が良いかなと思いました。

まず、マングローブをかなり軽く回ります。
インストラクターさんも気さくすぎるのか、インストラクターさんの出身地などのプロフィールばかり紹介していて、沖縄に旅行に来た身としては、興味のないインストラクターさんのことよりも沖縄に関してのことをもっと知りたいと思いました。
さらに、担当してくださった方は、沖縄に来てまだ数か月とのこと。
アクティビティーの後に、ご飯でも行きたいなとおすすめのごはん屋さんを聞いても
明日の観光におすすめの場所はあるかと聞いても、
沖縄には詳しくなくて・・・・の返答のみ。
うーーーーん。
もちろん、それをガイドしてくださるのが主な仕事ではないと分かっておりますが、
それでも・・・・という不信感。
これなら、たくさんあるマングローブのツアーをわざわざこの会社にしなくてもと強く思いました。それくらい、施設の清潔度に関しても内容に関しても不満感のみが残りました。

カヌーの疲れない漕ぎ方とかも帰りの道のりでもうすぐ漁港に帰るというタイミングで教えてくださったりとか。。。
サンセットは沖で見るのとほぼ同じ位置から。
なにか、もう少し改善をしてからツアー開催した方がよいのではないかと思います。

期待値が高かった分、非常に残念に思いました。

We departed from Ishigaki Port shortly after 8 AM and headed to the mangrove cruise on Nakama River around 9 AM after our arrival. Although the sky was a bit cloudy, it was wonderful to cruise through the great outdoors that we usually don't get to see. Along the way, we got off the boat to see the Sakishima Suo tree, which is said to be 400 years old, and it was truly impressive.

We traveled to Yubu Island by riding a water buffalo. I had always wanted to try this, so it was really moving! An older gentleman played the sanshin and sang folk songs. I think it was a moment where you could really feel, "Ah, I've come to Okinawa." Yubu Island has a subtropical botanical garden, where we had lunch and I believe we had about an hour and a half of free time. My husband found the portion sizes at Yubu Island Teahouse to be a bit small, so he enjoyed some gelato.

We also traveled back by water buffalo cart.

Next was the island I wanted to visit the most, Taketomi Island!!! It was truly a wonderful place. The original scenery of Okinawa has been preserved, with houses featuring red-tiled roofs lined up, allowing us to spend a really peaceful and relaxing time. I chose the bus tour and the water buffalo cart tour, and I think that was the right decision. I considered renting a bicycle to explore freely, but even in May, the temperatures exceeded 30 degrees Celsius, so traveling by car might have been tough (laughs). It might be good for those who want to explore freely, though.

On Taketomi Island, we also rode a water buffalo cart. The guide was entertaining and sang about the culture of Taketomi Island, making for a really enjoyable time. We had about 30 minutes before boarding the bus, so we could take a short walk and explore. I climbed the Nagomi Tower, which I had been curious about during the water buffalo tour. The steep stairs might be challenging for those with a fear of heights, but I recommend it as you can overlook the island from a high vantage point. I also tried the bitter melon ice cream that the guide recommended. It was very hot, so it started melting quickly while I was walking, but it was delicious!

We moved by bus to Hoshizuna Beach and searched for star-shaped sand. The sea was beautiful, and there was truly nothing to complain about!!! I felt like the time spent on Taketomi Island could have been longer (laughs).

During the cruise, the sky was cloudy, but after that, the weather was really nice, and I was able to enjoy a truly wonderful time in Okinawa!!!

朝８時過ぎに石垣港を出発し、到着後９時前頃には仲間川のマングローブクルーズへ出発します。
少し曇り空でしたが、普段見れない大自然の中をクルージング出来て良かったです。
途中、ボートから降りて見た、樹齢４００年とされているサキシマスオウノキは圧巻でした。

由布島へは水牛に乗って移動します。
ずっと乗ってみたかったので、本当に感動しました！！
おじさんが三線を弾きながら民謡を歌ってくれます。
『あ～沖縄にきた～』って感じれる瞬間だと思います。
由布島には亜熱帯植物園があるのですが、そこでは昼食を食べ、トータル１時間半ほどの自由時間があったと思います。
昼食は男性だと量が少なく足りないと、主人は由布島茶屋でジェラートを食べていました。
帰りも水牛車に乗り移動します。

次は私が一番行きたかった、竹富島！！！
本当に素敵な場所でした。
沖縄の原風景が残されていて、赤瓦屋根の家が立ち並び、本当に穏やかなのんびりとした時間を過ごせました。
バス観光と水牛車観光を選択しましたが、正解だったと思います。
自転車を借りて自由に周ろうかとも考えましたが、５月でも３０度を超す炎天下の中で自動車の移動は厳しかったかもしれません（笑）
自由に見て周りたい人にはいいかもしれませんが・・。

竹富島でも水牛車に乗りました。
ガイドの方が面白おかしく、竹富島の文化や民謡を歌ってくれて、本当に楽しい時間が過ごせました。
バスに乗るまで３０分ほど時間があったので、少し歩いて散策も出来ました。
水牛観光している時に気になっていた、なごみの塔に登ってみました。
急な階段で高所恐怖症の方には厳しいかもしれませんが、島を高いところから見渡すことが出来てオススメです。
ガイドの方が教えてくれたゴーヤのアイスも食べました。
とても暑かったので、歩きながら食べてると、すぐに溶けてきてしまいましたが、美味しかったですよ☆
バスで星砂浜へ移動し、星の形をした砂を探しました。
海もキレイで本当に言うことなし！！！
竹富島の滞在時間がもっと長くてもいいのになと感じたぐらいでした（笑）

クルーズの時は曇り空でしたが、それ以降はとても天気が良く、本当に素敵な沖縄時間を過ごすことが出来ました！！！

<Iriomote Island>
We cruised along the Nakama River, which boasts the largest mangrove area in Japan. Although the visibility changes with the tides, the guide provided detailed explanations about the different types of mangroves found on Iriomote Island, making the time fly by. Despite the strong sunlight, the breeze during the cruise was very pleasant.
Later, during the island bus tour, I was captivated by the driver's humorous stories about how much the Iriomote wildcat is cherished on the island and the lifestyle of the local people.

<Yubu Island>
It was my first time riding a water buffalo cart, so it was a very valuable experience. Once we arrived on the island, we had about two hours for lunch and free time, during which we could see the butterfly garden and newborn calves, as well as those in training.

<Taketomi Island>
Each cow has its own name and personality, which was fascinating to learn about. The guide explained the unique customs and history of Taketomi Island, helping us understand the background of why the beautiful streets have been preserved in this way. We also learned how to find the famous star sand, and my spouse and I eagerly searched for it like children (laughs).

<Summary>
I believe it was a very fulfilling tour. From the hotel pick-up to the transfers in each area and back to the hotel, the staff provided attentive guidance, allowing us to enjoy the tour without any worries. I think children would also have a great time.

＜西表島＞
マングローブ流域面積日本一を誇る仲間川をクルージング。潮の満ち引きによって見える状況は異なるものの、西表島にはどんなマングローブがあるのか、マングローブにもいろいろな種類があるというようなガイドさんの説明もとても細かく時間があっという間にすぎました。陽射しがとても強い日ではありましたが、クルージングをしてる時の風はとても心地よかったです。
その後、島内バス観光においては西表島でどれだけイリオモテヤマネコが大切にされているのか、島の人たちの生活についてなど、運転手さんの非常にユーモアある話で魅了されました。

＜由布島＞
水牛車に乗るのは初めてだったので、とても貴重な体験をすることができました。
島についてからは、約２時間ほど昼食と自由時間があり、蝶園やまだ生まれたばかりの牛、訓練中の牛も見ることが出来ました。

＜竹富島＞
牛ひとりひとりに名前があり、性格も違うようでまずその説明が興味深かったです。
竹富島ならではの風習や歴史をガイドさんにご説明いただくことで
あの素敵な街並みがなぜ今このように残っているのかという背景がとてもよく分かりました。
定番の星の砂の見つけるということにおいても、見つけ方を教えてもらい、夫婦で子供のように夢中になって探してました（笑）。

＜総括＞
とても充実したツアーだったと思います。
ホテルへの送迎からはじまり、各エリアでの移動、ホテルに戻るまでスタッフさんが丁寧にガイドしていただいたため、一度も不安になることなくツアーを楽しむことが出来ました。子供も楽しめると思います。

On the second day of our 3-night, 4-day trip to the Okinawa islands, we participated in this tour. The weather forecast predicted rain, but on the day itself, it was cloudy, which was a relief. There were moments when it drizzled, but we still had fun. (If it had rained enough to need an umbrella, the enjoyment might have been halved.) During the Nakama River cruise, we saw various types of mangroves and learned about their characteristics, so even though the scenery was similar, it felt like it ended quickly. The bus driver who guided us around Iriomote Island shared jokes and interesting stories about the island, keeping the atmosphere in the bus lively and full of laughter. I usually find bus tour guides' talks to be "boring," but this driver's stories were very engaging, leaving no time for me to doze off.

The highlight for both of us was the water buffalo cart ride to Yubu Island. My husband had ridden it before and mentioned he wanted to show me the sea on a sunny day, but since it was my first time, I was completely satisfied with the exotic atmosphere. Although we couldn't choose our seats, I personally recommend sitting at the very back, as it offered great views for photos and the surrounding scenery. Since we visited three islands in one day, there wasn't much time for free exploration, and I particularly wished to see a bit more of Taketomi Island. However, as it was my first time at all these places, I felt it was a fulfilling experience. This time, we rushed through while learning various things, so next time, I would like to explore each island at a more leisurely pace. I think this tour is highly recommended for beginners in island travel.

夫婦二人、３泊４日の沖縄離島旅行２日目に、このツアーに参加させて頂きました。天気予報では雨だったのですが、当日は曇り空でひと安心。時折パラパラと降る場面もありましたが、楽しめました。（傘が必要なくらい降ると楽しさは半減かもしれません。）仲間川のクルーズでは、様々な種類のマングローブがあり、特徴など聞きながらだったので同じような景色が続いてもあっという間に終わったという感じでした。また西表島内をバスで案内してくださった運転手さんは、冗談や島内の面白エピソードを交えながら島の様子を紹介してくださり、バス内は笑いが絶えませんでした。今までバスツアーのガイドさんの話は「つまらない」と思うことが殆どでしたが、この運転手さんのお話しはとても興味深く居眠りする暇はありませんでした。そして、二人が一番楽しみにしていたのは由布島へ渡る水牛車です。主人は以前にも乗ったことがあり、「晴れてる時の海を見せたかった」と言っていましたが、私は初めてだったので、異国感溢れる空間で大満足でした。席は選べませんが個人的には一番後ろが写真も撮れて周りの景色もよく見えたのでオススメです。１日で３島をめぐるので自由観光する時間が殆どなかったので、竹富島は特にもう少し見たいなと思いましたが、どの場所も初めての私は盛りだくさんで良かったです。今回は急いでめぐりながら色々な事を教えてもらったので、次回は一つずつの島をゆっくりと観光したいと思います。離島旅行の初心者にはおすすめなツアーだと思います。

I participated in a tour that included clownfish spot diving and snorkeling at the Blue Cave. I had always wanted to try diving, but I was anxious about doing it overseas, so I decided on this tour that offered a beginner-friendly experience with proper support for both diving and snorkeling at the Blue Cave.

Before diving, the staff thoroughly explained how to use the equipment, tips for breathing, and addressed other concerns that beginners might have (like the causes of ear pain and how to relieve it, and what to do in case of panic), which made me feel secure about diving. I particularly remember the advice that when looking at the deep sea where the bottom is not visible, it’s easy for humans to feel anxious and panic, so it’s better not to look at the bottom. If you do panic, just look at the person next to you. This was a very impactful message, especially coming from experienced staff!

Once I actually dove in, it was a bit cold, but I was surprised by how many fish there were! The clownfish were so cute! The coral reef was so close! I was extremely excited! The Blue Cave also took us to a spot with beautiful light, and I was moved by the scenery there as well. I was able to see plenty of fish while snorkeling too!

The staff even showed me some tricks using bubbles underwater, which made me very satisfied! It was such a fun tour that made me want to dive again soon.

クマノミスポットダイビングと青の洞窟スポットシュノーケリングのツアーに参加しました。
昔からダイビングに挑戦してみたかったのですが、海外での体験は不安・・・という事で、きちんとサポートしていただけそうな体験ダイビングと青の洞窟シュノーケリングがセットになっている本ツアーに決めました。
ダイビング前には事前にスタッフの方が器具の使い方、呼吸のコツ、その他初心者にとって不安な点（耳が痛くなる原因・解消のコツ、パニックになった場合など）も詳しく教えていただいたので、安心して潜る事ができました。特に、底が見えない深海部分を見ていると人間は不安になってパニックを起こしやすいから底は見ない、パニックになった場合は隣の人を見ましょう、という話がすごく印象に残りました。慣れてるスタッフさんだからこそ伝えられる言葉ですね♪
実際潜ってみたら、少し寒かったですが魚がいっぱいでびっくり！クマノミかわいい！サンゴ礁が近い！と大興奮でした！！
青の洞窟も光がとても綺麗な場所に連れて行ってもらい、そこでの景色にもまた感動しました。シュノーケリングでも魚はいっぱい見れましたよ〜♪
お兄さんに水中で気泡を使った技も見せていただき大満足！
またすぐ潜りたいな〜と思えた、すごく楽しいツアーでした。

It was great to have relatively flexible time for a day trip to Ishigaki Island (but I had to be careful not to confuse it with other tours). The water buffalo cart ride was also relaxing and enjoyable.

日帰りの石垣島観光だったので時間が比較的自由に選べてよかったです（他のツアーと間違えないようにしないといけないですけど）
水牛車ものんびりしていてよかったです

There were other tours to Taketomi Island, but since I wanted to use various modes of transportation like buses, glass-bottom boats, and water buffalo carts, I decided on this one because it was also reasonably priced. The ability to choose the return time is also appealing. However, there is another company that offers water buffalo cart tours, and when I visited Taketomi Island a few years ago, I used their service. I felt that their course options were better. That said, I think it's great that you can customize your sightseeing experience depending on the combinations you choose.

竹富島に行くツアーは他にもありましたが、せっかくなので、バスやグラスボート、水牛車など、いろいろ利用したいと思い、値段的にも安かったので決めました。
帰りの時間を決められるというのも魅力的です。
ただ、水牛車観光をやっている会社はもう一社あり、数年前に竹富島を訪れたときには、そちらを利用したのですが、これに関しては、まわるコース等、そちらの方がよかったように思います。
とはいえ、組み合わせ次第で自分にあった観光ができるのは、とてもいいと思いました。

Since I was staying in Okinawa City, I drove there and parked in the office's parking lot. After arriving, I filled out my personal information. I changed into my wetsuit and had some waiting time until the boat's departure. The office was well-equipped with sunscreen, hair dryers, cotton swabs, and the service was good. During the waiting time, they took us to the sea. Since I was in the same group as some Koreans, we had fun chatting while we waited. The snorkeling gear was distributed by the instructor, and we were dropped off near the Blue Cave by boat. The instructor pulled something like a kickboard, and we snorkeled while holding onto it. The weather was nice, and the inside of the Blue Cave was very beautiful, which made me very satisfied. We were also able to feed the fish. I think those participating in this tour should consider purchasing a waterproof camera in advance. The instructor was kind, and I had such a good experience that I would be happy to join the same tour again.

沖縄市に滞在していたので車で向かいました。車は事務所の駐車場に停めました。到着後、個人情報を記載しました。ウェットスーツに着替え、船の出港時間まで待ち時間が有りました。事務所には日焼け止めやドライヤー、綿棒なども完備されていてサービスは良かったです。待ち時間の間は海へ連れて行ってくれました。韓国人と同じグループだったので楽しく会話しながら待ちました。シュノーケリングの道具一式がインストラクターの方から配布され、船で青の洞窟付近で降ろされます。ビート板のようなものをインストラクターの方が引いて、それにつかまりながらシュノーケリングをしました。天候がよく海の中、青の洞窟内部はとてもきれいで大満足でした。魚にえさをやることもできました。このツアーに参加される方は防水カメラをあらかじめ購入してから参加してもよいと思います。インストラクターの方も優しく、また同じツアーに参加してもいいと思えるほど、良い体験ができました。

I made a reservation so my mother, who can't swim, could see the underwater world. Unfortunately, the conditions weren't very good due to the weather, but it seems my mother was satisfied. She was very excited when fish gathered nearby! The visibility was 2 this time, but I want to try again next time!

泳げない母親に海の中を見てもらいたく予約しました。残念ながら天候の影響であまり良い状態ではありませんでしたが母親は満足してくれたみたいです。近くに魚が集まってきた時は大興奮でした！今回は透明度が2でしたが次回またリベンジしたいと思います！

I had a scuba diving experience on the Adventure Island tour! Despite being late due to last-minute rental car issues, they were very kind and accommodating. I also found it convenient that we could take a bus from near Kokusai Street.

Before diving, we received an explanation on the boat, and then we practiced putting on the tank and submerging our faces in the water. At first, I was anxious because I couldn't breathe properly, but thanks to the clear advice I received, I quickly grasped the technique and was able to breathe comfortably underwater. I felt secure because the guide was there to lead me! Once we were in the ocean, I was surprised to see so many fish! When we went a little deeper, I was moved by the beautiful coral reefs!

The fish and coral were colorful and diverse, so I was constantly looking around. The guide took many photos of us at various points! Not only did we enjoy the scenery, but I was also entertained by the guide's bubble tricks underwater.

Finally, we were taken to a spot with beautiful light in the blue cave, and I was once again moved by the scenery there. The time spent diving was so enjoyable that it felt like it flew by. This is definitely a tour I would love to use again the next time I visit Okinawa!

冒険島のツアーでスキューバダイビングの体験をしました！当日は急遽レンタカーの都合で遅刻してしまったにも関わらず、とても親切に対応していただきました。国際通り近くからバスで行けるのも便利だと思いました。
スキューバをやる前に初めに船で説明を受け次にボンベを背負って海で顔をつけて潜る練習をしました。初めは呼吸が上手く出来ず不安でしたが、分かりやすくアドバイスをしていただいたおかげですぐにコツを掴み、水中で楽に呼吸ができるようになりました。潜るのはお兄さんに誘導してもらったので安心！そして海の中に入ったらまず魚がいっぱいでビックリ！そしてもう少し奥まで連れて行ってもらうとサンゴ礁がすごく綺麗で感動しました！
魚もサンゴ礁も、色とりどりでいろんな種類の景色が見られるので常にキョロキョロ。ツアーを担当してもらったお兄さんにいろんなポイントで写真もたくさん撮ってもらえました！景色だけでなくお兄さんの水中での気泡を使った技も見せていただきとても楽しませてもらいました。
最後に青の洞窟の光がとても綺麗な場所に連れて行ってもらい、そこでの景色にもまた感動しました。潜っている時間は、とても楽しくてあっという間に感じました。次に沖縄に行く時もぜひ利用させていただきたいツアーです！

We traveled to Ishigaki Island for the first time as a couple. We signed up with the hope of efficiently exploring the surrounding islands.

<Iriomote Island>
On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed a cruise along a river lined with mangroves. Although it was rainy, we were mostly sheltered inside the boat, so we could enjoy the experience without getting wet. I was worried because I had experienced seasickness the day before, but since it was a large boat, there was no concern about it rocking. After listening to the guide's explanation about the mangroves, we viewed a 400-year-old Sakishima Suo tree. It was magnificent.

<Yubu Island>
We rode on a smart water buffalo, and during the ride, the buffalo handler played and sang with a sanshin. It was a relaxing time. The meal prepared for us on Yubu Island was delicious, and even I, who usually can't finish my meals, ate everything. We had a little time here, so we could stroll around Yubu Island together.

<Taketomi Island>
The guide taught us how to find star sand, and we discovered a few pieces to take home as souvenirs. We also rode a water buffalo here, but it seemed that the one from Yubu Island was more hardworking, as ours didn’t move forward very quickly… haha. Taketomi Island is also a lovely place, and there were shops I wanted to visit, so I thought it would have been even better if we had more time to explore at our own pace.

<Summary>
It was a wonderful trip, and I was very satisfied with how efficiently we were able to visit the three islands! Having a guide allowed us to learn a lot about each island, so I recommend it for first-timers.

カップルで、初めて石垣島に旅行に行きました。
効率良く離島を巡りたいとの思いで申し込みました。

＜西表島＞
西表島では、左右にマングローブが広がる川をクルージング。
雨模様だったのですが、船の中だったので雨にほぼ当たることなく楽しむことができました。
前日に船酔いを体験していたので心配でしたが、大きい船だったので揺れる心配もありませんでした。
ガイドさんにマングローブの説明を聞いた後、樹齢400年のサキシマスオウノキを観覧。壮大でした。

＜由布島＞
賢い水牛さんに乗せてもらい、乗牛？中は牛使いの方が三線で弾き語り。
ゆったりとした時間に癒されました。
由布島でご用意頂いたご飯も美味しく、普段中々完食できない私も全て平らげました。
ここでは少し時間があり、二人で由布島内を散策できました。

＜竹富島＞
ガイドさんに星の砂の見つけ方を教えてもらい、いくつか発見。お土産に持って帰りました。
ここでも水牛さんに乗ったのですが、由布島の水牛さんの方が働き者らしく、
なかなか前に進みませんでした…笑
竹富島も素敵なところで入りたいお店等もあったので、
個人でゆっくり回れる時間があったらより良かったな、と思います＾＾

＜総括＞
とても良い旅で、三島を効率よく周ることができ大満足でした！
ガイドさんがいることで、その島について詳しく知ることができるので、
初めての方にはお勧めです。

The Churaumi Aquarium bus tour and three other spots is a great value. Such a low price for an all day tour. You get lunch, a small bowl of Okinawa Soba, at the Butterfly Garden, the aquarium, pineapple park, and the glass factor. We were a group of six, and at the aquarium, five of us got lost. I followed the guide (I understand Japanese) but the others (all Chinese) failed to follow. When I went back to where I last saw them, they were gone! The guide was very helpful. She helped me look for them and found three (including my husband), but the other two were still missing. She went back to the bus and found the other two, brought them back to us. Reunited! The dolphin show was very entertaining but I was eager to see the whale sharks at the aquarium. They had three whale sharks and my husband took some great photos. The other exhibits were hard to see, so many people! Chinese tourists everywhere! We spent three hours at the aquarium and then it was back to the bus. Next stop, Pineapple park, sampled different juices and baked goods. Final stop, Ryukyu glass factory. The pieces are very pretty but pricey so we spent the short time there eating purple potato ice cream, very good, you have to try it when you come to Okinawa.
It took another two hours to get back to Naha and we asked to be dropped off at Kokusaidori. Since we're all in the service industry, and because she was so helpful, we tipped the guide. There were only two things I didn't like about this tour. First, it took 15 minutes for us to walk from our hotel (Rihga Royal Gran) to the pick up hotel (Loisir). 2nd, lunch was too smal. We all could've eaten two bowls of noodles. We were all so hungry, we had the buffet dinner on the top floor of the Ryubo department store! Still, we had a good time!

The highlight of our trip to Okinawa, for both my friend and me, was this activity! It was so beautiful that we felt like, "Is there really a world like this?" I was a bit worried it would be crowded during Golden Week, but thanks to the guidance from the staff, we were able to fully enjoy both the Blue Cave and snorkeling. The staff, including our guide, were very friendly and kind, and I would love to use their services again!

今回の沖縄の旅で友人、私共々一番の思い出がこのアクティビティです★もう綺麗すぎてこんな世界ってあるんだー！って感じでした★
GWで混んでいるかなーと不安でしたが、担当の方がうまく誘導してくれたおかげで青の洞窟もシュノーケリングもしっかり楽しめました(^o^)／~~
担当方含め、お店のスタッフの方もとても感じがよく親切で、また利用したいです★

I saw landscapes I've never seen before, so it was enjoyable. I also got to eat until I was full, and it was delicious.

他に見たことがない風景を見ましたので、楽しかったです。ご飯もお腹いっぱいまで食べさせてもらい、美味しかったです。

This time, I boarded a boat to show my 2-year-old son the beautiful fish living in the waters of Okinawa. From other people's experiences, I learned that the water clarity is better when the day before was sunny, so we hurriedly boarded on the day we arrived in Okinawa. Unfortunately, perhaps due to the strong winds, the water clarity wasn't as great as I had hoped, but the crew of the Orca boat kindly fed the fish near the boat, allowing us to closely observe the tropical fish.

Although some rocking was expected, it wasn't enough to cause seasickness, and we enjoyed a pleasant cruise with a nice breeze, which made my 2-year-old son very happy. He was excitedly holding onto the Orca boat magnet we received, even after disembarking (laughs).

It's quite challenging to encounter the perfect day for a tour that is affected by the weather, but I believe it was a valuable experience that both adults and children can enjoy. Next time, I definitely want to take a plan that includes lunch on a nice weather day to fully enjoy Okinawa.

今回は、2歳の息子に綺麗な沖縄の海底に住むお魚を見せたく乗船しました。
他の方の体験談から、前日が快晴であった方が、海水の透明度がよいとの事だったので、バタバタしましたが、沖縄到着日に慌てて乗船。
残念ながら、風が強かった為か、海の透明度は凄くいいとは言えませんでしたが、オルカ号の船員さんが船の傍に撒餌をして下さり、南国のお魚達を間近でじっくり鑑賞する事が出来ました。
揺れも予想されていましたが、船酔いするほどではなく、心地よい風を感じるクルーズで、2歳の息子も大喜び。戴いたオルカ号のマグネットを握りしめながら、下船後も興奮してはしゃいでました（笑）
こういった、お天気に左右されるツアーで、最高に良い日に巡り合うのは、なかなか難しいですが、貴重な体験が出来、大人も子供も楽しめるプランだと思います。
今度は是非、お天気の良い日に、ランチ券付きのプランでゆったりと沖縄を満喫したいと思います。

This was my second visit to the Blue Cave! It was right in the middle of Golden Week. The last time I went was around mid-May, so there were a lot of people then. I chose the 12:30 tour, so we were able to arrive relatively leisurely. When we got there, we entered a place that looked like an office, and it was clean inside. They had hair dryers, lotion, sunscreen, hair ties, and tissues available for women, making it possible to do makeup after coming out of the sea. This was very nice for women.

Towels were available for a fee, and it seemed like underwater cameras and videos were also available for rent. There were two booths for showers and changing. It got a bit crowded with people heading to the sea and those coming out. There was a line, so it might be better to line up early.

After changing into wetsuits, a staff member came to pick us up, and we drove a short distance to the sea. Once we arrived, they lent us snorkeling gear. About half of the participants were Asian, and we boarded a boat with around 20 people. The instructors were very kind and experienced, which made me feel at ease for my first snorkeling experience in a while.

When I entered the water, I was surprised at how cold it still was. It seems that people in Okinawa don’t usually go into the sea at this time of year. When I bravely put my face in the water, I found it surprisingly deep. The coral reefs spread out, and there were many fish swimming around, which was breathtaking.

Entering the Blue Cave, the beautiful blue color was just as stunning as I remembered. I thought I could come here again and again. In the deeper areas, there were people experiencing diving and seeing fish up close. I want to try diving next time.

The cave was quite crowded, and we lined up to wait for our turn at the scenic point. It was so beautiful that I could wait as long as needed. The instructors also shared various information about the sea and Okinawa, making the wait enjoyable.

The children around us seemed to be enjoying snorkeling without any difficulty. Finally, we reached the much-anticipated scenic point. It was indeed beautiful, just like every other time.

As we went deeper into the cave, the height reached about 30 meters, with light streaming in. After leaving the cave, we fed the fish. I was able to see the fish up close, much closer than I had imagined. They gathered around us, which was also fun.

It was a very satisfying snorkeling experience at the Blue Cave! Next time, it might be nice to go in the fall when it’s not crowded, or in winter when the water is beautiful.

今回2度目の青の洞窟！
ゴールデンウィーク真っ盛り。
前回は5月の中旬ごろに行ったので、人が多かったですね。
12時30分の回にしたので、比較的にゆっくり現地に迎えました。着いたら、事務所のようなところに入ると中は綺麗で、女性用にドライヤー、化粧水と、日焼け止め、髪ゴム、ティッシュなどが用意されており、海からあがってから化粧も出来るようになっていました。女性にとって大変嬉しいです。
タオルは有料、水中カメラ、ビデオも有料で貸し出しがあるようです。
シャワー兼更衣室のブースは２つありました。今から海に向かう人と、海から出た人で若干混み合います。列が出来ていました。早めに並んだ方がいいかもしれません。
ウエットスーツに着替え、しばらくするとスタッフの方が迎えにこられ、車で少し離れた海まで行きます。
海に着いたら、シュノーケル器具を貸してくれます。
周りはアジア系の方が半分くらい、20人くらいの参加者と一緒にボートに乗り込みました。
インストラクターの方はとても親切で慣れた方々です。安心して久々のシュノーケルに臨めました。
海に入ると、まだまだ冷たくてびっくりしました。沖縄の方はまだこの時期には海には寒くて入らないようです。頑張って海に顔をつけると、意外と深いです。サンゴ礁が広がり魚も沢山泳いでいて感動します。
青の洞窟に入ると、やはり綺麗なブルー。何回来てもいいなあと思います。水深深いところではダイビングを体験している方々が魚を間近で見ていらっしゃいました。今度はダイビングにも挑戦したいと思いました。
とっても混雑している洞窟でした。笑
絶景ポイントまで列に並んで順番を待ちました。綺麗なので、いくらでも待てます。インストラクターの方も海のことや沖縄のことをいろいろとお話してくださるので待っている間も楽しかったです。
周りにいたこども達も無理なく、シュノーケルを満喫している様子でした。
お待ちかねの絶景ポイント。
やはり何回来ても綺麗です。
洞窟の奥にも行くと洞窟の高さは30メートルくらいまでになります。光が差し込んでいます。
洞窟を後にしたあとは、魚に餌をあげました。想像以上に近くまで魚を見ることができます。沢山寄ってきます。これも楽しいです。
大満足な青の洞窟シュノーケルでした！今度は混んでいない秋頃、海の中が綺麗な冬もいいかもしれません。

Had a great time on this bus tour however really wish we could have spent more time at each stop. I felt too rushed and couldn't enjoy the places as much as I would have liked. Definitely worth the price and will recommend to friends and family! A chunk of the trip was picking up and dropping off people to their hotels so the bus ride was very long but it was really convenient for us. Also you get free little gifts. We got a piece from the glass house and pineapple ice cream!

During my trip to Okinawa, I also participated in this dinner cruise. The atmosphere on the ship was nice, and the staff were very accommodating. Since my birthday was approaching, I even received a gift. The rib steak was a bit tough, though.

沖縄旅行中、このディナークルーズにも参加しました。
船内は雰囲気がよく、スタッフの方たちの対応もよかったです。
誕生日も近かったこともあり、プレゼントももらえました。
リブステーキは少し固かったかな。

During the day, we played a lot at the beach and participated in the sunset sea kayaking in the evening. The water clarity was outstanding, and we were able to kayak while seeing many fish. However, the weather wasn't great, so it was disappointing that we couldn't see the sunset. I paddled while thinking that if it had been sunny, the sun would have set around there. There were two teams participating that day, but we didn't request the instructor to take photos (they take various pictures and burn them onto a CD at the end, which was about 2000 yen). Instead, we took photos with our own digital camera, while the other team seemed to have requested the photos and had various shots taken. During that time, our team was left to ourselves. There were some waves, so we joked, "If we just sit here, we'll get seasick," while paddling. Well, that's one of the memories too.

日中はビーチでたくさん遊んで、夕方からのサンセットシーカヤックに参加しました。とにかく透明度が抜群で、魚をたくさん見ながらカヤックをすることができました。でも天気がいまいちでサンセットを見れなかったのでそこは残念でした。晴れてればあの辺に太陽が沈むのね・・と感じながら漕ぎました。当日は２チームでの参加だったのですが、私たちはインストラクタがー撮影してくれる写真（いろいろなところを撮影してくれて最後にＣＤに焼いてくれるもの。2000円ぐらいだったかな）はお願いせず、自分の持っているデジカメで撮影、もう１チームの方は撮影をお願いしていたようで、いろいろと撮ってもらっていました。その間は私たちのチームは放置プレイ。少し波があったので「このままぼーっとしてたら酔っちゃうね」といいながら漕いでみたり。ま、それも思い出の一つですね。

It was a 3-night, 4-day trip during the first half of Golden Week. I was late in making the reservation for a rental car, and it was already impossible to rent one anywhere, but I found this tour and everyone in the family had a great time without a car! 😊

GW前半で3泊4日の旅行でした。レンタカーの予約手配がおそくなり、もうどこも借りられない状態でしたが、こちらのツアーを見つけて、車なしで家族全員が楽しめました＼(^o^)／

First, we headed to the office at the meeting point. Upon arrival, we filled out a form with our height and other information. After that, they brought us a wetsuit that fit, and we changed in the changing room before storing our belongings in a coin locker. Then, we were taken by car to the beach, which was about a 5-minute drive from the office. The office has a changing room combined with a shower room, so we changed there. There is a parking lot in front of the office, but it's not for visitors, so be careful. The visitor parking is about 100 meters ahead. By the way, the office is equipped with sunscreen, hair dryers, cotton swabs, and other amenities, which is a nice service for women.

After departing from the office and arriving at the beach, we were quickly taken by boat to the area near the Blue Cave. On the boat, snorkeling gear was distributed by the instructor. Our tour had about 12 participants, with around 4 instructors. There were various people participating, including couples and families.

Once we arrived near the cave, we immediately jumped into the water! There were many colorful fish in the sea, making snorkeling very rewarding! We could also feed the fish along the way. Among the fish, there was the famous clownfish! (The fish that appears in Finding Nemo.) There were many fish of all sizes. When we fed them, a large number of fish came swimming towards us!

At first, I felt a bit scared, but once I got used to it, they were so cute and soothing. The distance from where we arrived by boat to the cave was a bit far, so we swam while being guided by the instructors. Even those who are not confident in swimming will be well guided by the instructors, and wearing a life jacket makes it completely safe! For those who are really scared of swimming, the instructors pull a large float, and if you hold onto that, they will take you to the cave.

When we arrived at the cave, a beautiful blue view spread out before us! I had heard rumors about how beautiful the Blue Cave was, but I never expected it to be this stunning. We didn’t have a waterproof camera, so we couldn’t take photos, but I think it would be good for those participating in this tour to purchase a waterproof camera in advance.

Since it was during Golden Week, there were quite a few tourists, which was a slight downside, but I was constantly amazed by the beautiful cave and the fish! The sea in Okinawa is truly beautiful! The shuttle car to the beach was also clean and very comfortable.

The instructors were always considerate of us participants, and I strongly felt that they prioritized safety. Additionally, we were about 15 minutes late due to traffic for the meeting time of the tour, but when I called to inform them, they kindly responded, "Please be careful on your way." I am very grateful for the kindness of the instructors. It was a very enjoyable tour!

まずは、集合場所の事務所に向かいました。到着したら、まずは身長などの情報をいただいた紙に記載します。そのあとに自分に合ったウェットスーツを持ってきてもらい、更衣室で着替えて荷物をコインロッカーに預けて事務所から車で5分ほど先の海へ連れて行ってくれます。事務所には更衣室とシャワー室が一緒になったものがあるので、そこで着替えます。駐車場が事務所の前にありますが、そこは来客用の駐車場ではないので要注意です。来客用の駐車場は100メートルほど先の所にあります。ちなみに事務所には日焼け止めやドライヤー、綿棒なども完備されてます♪女性にはありがたいサービスです。
事務所を出発して、海辺に到着したら、早速青の洞窟付近まで船で連れて行ってくれます。
船の中で、シュノーケリングの道具一式がインストラクターの方から配布されます。私たちのツアーは、参加者12人ほどに対して、インストラクターの方が4名ほどでした。カップルや友達家族など様々な方が参加されていました。
洞窟付近に到着したら、さっそく海の中へ・・！海の中には色鮮やかなお魚が沢山いてシュノーケリングのし甲斐がありました！途中でお魚達に餌をあげることもできます。お魚の中にはあの有名なカクレクマノミもいました！（ニモに登場するお魚です。）小さなお魚から大きなお魚まで沢山のお魚がいました。餌をあげると大量のお魚達がよってきます♪
最初は恐怖感もありましたが、なれるととっても可愛くて癒されます。
船で到着した場所から洞窟までは少し距離があるのでそこまでインストラクターの方に誘導していただきながら、泳いでいきます。泳ぎに自信がない方も、しっかりとインストラクターの方が誘導してくれますし、ライフジャケットを着用しているので全く問題ないです！どうしても泳ぐのが怖い人はインストラクターの方が大きなビート版のようなものを引いて下さるので、それにつかまっていれば洞窟まで連れていいてくれます。
洞窟に到着すると、一面に綺麗なブルーの景色が広がっていました♪前々から青の洞窟が綺麗だという噂は聞いていましたがまさかこんなにきれいだとは思いませんでした。私たちは、防水カメラを持っていなかったので写真は撮れませんでしたが、このツアーに参加される方は防水カメラをあらかじめ購入してから参加してもよいと思います。
ＧＷということもあり観光客の方が他にも沢山いたのは少しマイナスポイントでしたが、とにかく綺麗な洞窟とお魚には終始感動しっ放しでした！やっぱり、沖縄の海は格段に美しいです！海までの送迎車も清潔感がありとても心地よかったです。
インストラクターの方々も常に参加者の私たちを気遣ってくださり、安全に配慮されていることを強く感じました。また、実はこの日のツアーの集合時間に私たちは15分ほど渋滞のために遅れてしまったのですが、電話で遅刻の旨を伝えると、「お気をつけていらっしゃってくださいね。」ととても親切な対応をしていただきました。インストラクターの方の優しさにはとても感謝しています。とても楽しいツアーでした！

I was worried because I had a small child with me, but the instructor was kind and the explanations were easy to understand, so I was able to enjoy snorkeling without any concerns! I think the climax of the scenery will remain in my child's memory! It was really fun! Thank you very much!

小さい子どもがいたので心配してましたがインストラクターも親切で説明が分かりやすく心配も何のそのでシュノーケリングタノシメました！
あのクライマックスの景色は子供の記憶にも残ると想います！本当に楽しかったです！
ありがとうございました！

I participated in the tour of the three islands: Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi for the first time.

During the first half of Golden Week, we were blessed with good weather, and the boat was completely stable, so I was worried about seasickness, but it was a comfortable tour! The mangrove cruise on Iriomote Island, after the rain, showcased the vibrant green of the mangroves contrasting beautifully with the green of Nakama River, making me feel like I had wandered into a jungle. The guide stopped the boat to carefully explain about the mangroves and took us to see the area where Japan's largest Sakishima suou tree grows. It was a massive tree, about 400 years old, and I could feel its power!

On Taketomi Island and Yufu Island, we rode on a water buffalo cart while the guide provided explanations and sang with a shamisen, making the entertainment absolutely wonderful. I had zenzai at a shaved ice shop introduced by the guide. It was the most delicious shaved ice I've ever had. I was truly impressed by the guide's thoughtfulness. Thank you very much!

西表・由布・竹富3島めぐりツアーに初めて参加してきました。

ＧＷの前半でお天気に恵まれ、船も全く揺れることがなく
船酔いを心配してましたが、快適なツアーでした！！
西表島のマングローブクルーズは、雨上がりでマングローブの色鮮やかなグリーンと
仲間川のグリーンのコントラストがジャングルに迷い込んだ感じでした。
ガイドさんは船を止めながらマングローブの説明を丁寧に話してくださったり、
日本最大級のサキシマスオウノキが生えている付近に船をとめて
見てきました。樹齢400年の大きな木でパワーを感じました！！
竹富島と由布島では、水牛車に乗りながらガイドさんの説明と三味線で
歌ってくださりエンターテイメントが最高に素晴らしかったです。
ガイドさんに紹介された、かき氷のお店でぜんざいを食べました。
今まで食べたかき氷で一番美味しかったです。ガイドさんの気配りに感激で
しました。有難うございます。
