All Reviews for 沖繩活動

On my first trip to Okinawa, I wanted to have a memorable experience, so I participated in snorkeling at the Blue Cave. On the day of the event, the waves were a bit strong, which made my 5-year-old son scared and hesitant. However, the staff member who assisted us was very kind and supportive, and in the end, he had a great time and was all smiles! Our whole family was amazed by the stunning scenery, repeatedly saying "Amazing! Amazing!!" We created wonderful memories! Thank you, Mr. Kinjo!

初めての沖縄旅行で、思い出に残る体験を。。と思い、青の洞窟シュノーケリングに参加しました。当日、少し波が強かったこともあり5歳の次男は怖がって怯んでしまいましたが、担当してくれた方が優しくサポートしてくださり、最後は楽しかった！！と笑顔♪家族全員、綺麗すぎる景色にスゴイ！スゴイ！！の連発で、いい思い出ができました！！
金城さん、ありがとうございました！！

My first time in Okinawa, my first time snorkeling, and even though I can't swim, I wanted to try snorkeling at least once in my life, so I decided to give it a go ( ˆoˆ ). It's a plan with a GoPro! It was so much fun! An instructor is assigned to us, and it's totally fine if you can't swim ( ^_^ ). The person who was with us was really nice and taught us patiently, and even if you're not confident in swimming, they provide a float, so as long as you hold on, you'll reach the Blue Cave (laughs). They took a lot of pictures with an underwater camera. We also used the GoPro to take photos and videos, but the instructor dove a few meters down and filmed us as well ( ˆoˆ ). Feeding the fish was also a lot of fun!! I highly recommend snorkeling at the Blue Cave!

初めての沖縄、初めてのシュノーケリング、泳げないわたしですが、人生で1度はシュノーケリングをやってみたくて体験してみることにしました( ˆoˆ )gopro付きプランです！とにかく楽しかった！インストラクターさんが1人付いてくれますし、泳げなくても全然平気です( ^_^ )わたしたちに付いてくれた方がとてもいい方で丁寧に教えてくれますし、泳ぎに自信がなくても浮き輪を持っていてくれるので捕まっていれば青の洞窟に着きます(笑)水中カメラで写真もたくさん撮ってくれます。わたしたち自身goproを使い写真、動画を撮りましたが、インストラクターのお兄さんが素潜りで数m下まで潜り動画も撮ってくれました( ˆoˆ )魚にエサをあげるのもとても楽しかったです！！青の洞窟シュノーケリングおすすめです！

Since we arrived in Okinawa in the early afternoon, I thought I would quickly enjoy something typical of Okinawa and signed up for an experience. However... once we started making it, I got completely absorbed! I was so serious that I was sweating! (laughs) After watching the explanatory video, I was able to create it while looking at a sample, so even as a beginner, I felt at ease and had a lot of fun! If I have the opportunity to go to Okinawa again, I would like to make a partner for the Shisa I created this time!

昼過ぎに沖縄到着だったため、パパッと楽しめる沖縄らしいことを！と思い体験に申し込みました。
が…作り始めたら夢中！！真剣になりすぎて汗だく！笑
説明の動画をみてから、見本を見ながら作れるので始めてでも安心、楽しくつくれました！
また沖縄に行く機会があれば、今回作ったシーサーの相方を作りたいです！

We participated as a couple. Since it was our first time on a Segway, I was honestly worried about whether I could handle it, but thanks to Michael's thorough explanations in fluent Japanese, I was able to ride it right away.
After the training, we spent about 1.5 hours exploring Zone C of the vast Banna Park. We occasionally stopped the Segway to take photos and received explanations about the flora and fauna, and before we knew it, time flew by. It was hot that day, but we had barley tea and salt rice crackers, which made it comfortable and enjoyable.
Lastly, Michael's dexterity and the sounds of the birds are a must-see (laughs).

夫婦二人での参加です。タイトル通り初めてのセグウェイだったので正直乗りこなせるか不安でしたが流暢な日本語を話すマイケルさんの丁寧な説明ですぐに乗ることが出来ました。
講習も終わり広大なバンナ公園のCゾーンを約1.5時間かけて進みます。時々セグウェイを止めて写真を撮ったり動植物についての説明があったりとあっという間に時間が経ってしまいました。当日は暑かったのですが麦茶や塩せんべいが有り快適に楽しく遊べました。
最後にマイケルさんの指先の器用さと鳥の鳴き声は必見です(笑)

The tour didn't have a guide accompanying us the whole time, so we were free to move around.
Cycling on sunny days requires UV protection!
For women, having a hat and UV-cut arm covers is a good idea!

添乗員さんが付きっきりというツアーでは無かったので、自由に動くことが出来ました。
晴れた時のサイクリングは紫外線対策必須です！
女性は、帽子にUVカットアームカバーがあると良し！

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

ゆいくんとてもかわいかっです。とても楽しく竹富島を満喫できました。また機会ありましたら利用したいと思います

My wife loved this trip. Highly recommend. Beautifully selected stops.

We participated in a staff trip with four people in their 60s and 70s, two men and two women. Initially, we thought about renting a car and exploring on our own, but we were concerned about the possibility of an accident in an unfamiliar area, so we decided to join a bus tour. The relaxed itinerary and the ease of moving to the next sightseeing spot were just right for us seniors. If I had to be picky, I would have appreciated a lighter lunch buffet or some dishes that are more representative of Okinawa.

職員旅行で60代７０代の４人、男性２名女性２名での参加でした。当初はレンタカーを借り４人だけで行動しようと思いましたが、不慣れな土地で事故でも起こしたら心配とのことでバスツアーに申込みました。ゆったりとした行程、次の観光場所への移動の気楽さは高齢の私達には丁度良かったです。欲を言うと昼のビュッフェがもう少し軽めの物や沖縄らしい食べ物があると嬉しかった感はあります。

I visited Ishigaki Island as a port of call on the Diamond Princess cruise, and I definitely wanted to ride the water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island! I made a reservation.

I was a bit worried about meeting at the location, but once I arrived at the remote island terminal, I was able to check in without getting lost. When I reached Taketomi Island, a shuttle was waiting to take me to the water buffalo cart boarding area, and I was able to board smoothly.

Since I had to return to the ship, I didn't go out for other sightseeing, but next time, I would like to take my time and explore!

ダイヤモンドプリンセスクルーズの寄港先に石垣島があり、是非とも竹富島の水牛車に乗りたい！い予約しました。

現地集合の為少し心配でしたが、離島ターミナルにつけば、迷う事無くにチェックイン出来、竹富島へ、島に着くと、水牛車乗り場までの送迎車が待っていて、スムーズに水牛車に乗る事が出来ました。
船に戻る時間があったので、他の観光は出なかったのですが、次回はゆっくりと観光してみたいです。　

I was very satisfied that I could see the Southern Cross.
I heard it would be cold, so I brought my own hotel bath towel. There are blankets available, but I recommend that those who are sensitive to the cold bring their own as well.

I appreciated the service of warm tea.
Next, I want to go see the Milky Way.

南十字星もみることができ、とても満足しました。
寒いと聞いていたのでホテルのバスタオルを持参しました。ブランケットの用意もありますが寒がりな人は自分でも用意をした方がオススメです。

温かいお茶のサービスもありがたかったです。
次は天の川も見に行きたいです。

First, I was guided to the mangroves and learned about various plants and animals! The movement of the fiddler crab's claws was adorable. We went to see the sunset; there were a few clouds, but the sky turned red and it was very beautiful. The person in charge had a lot of knowledge and our conversation was enjoyable.

最初にマングローブへ案内してもらい、色々な動植物を教えて頂きました！
蟹のシオマネキのハサミの動きが可愛かったです。
夕日を見に行き、少し雲がありましたが、空が赤くなりとても綺麗でした。
担当された方が、色々な知識がありお話も楽しかったです。

Even though I can't swim, I was able to snorkel thanks to the support I received. I'm grateful to the staff. The phantom island and the beautiful underwater scenery provided such a wonderful experience at my age. It was truly moving.

泳げない私でも、サポートをしていただきシュノーケルができました。スタッフの方に感謝です。
幻の島といい海の中といいこの歳にしてこれほど美しく素晴らしい体験ができるなんて。感動でした。

We had about an hour and a half to spare before the water buffalo cart departed back to Iriomote Island. Since Yubu Island is not very large, we needed to be creative with how we spent our time. Many other guests were also sitting and waiting for the time to come.

由布島から西表島に戻る際の水牛車の出発まで、1時間半ほどあり時間をもてあました。由布島は大きな島ではないため、時間の使い方に工夫が必要。他のお客さんも座って時間が来るのを待っている方が多かった。

The day before was a thunderstorm, marking the start of the rainy season. I was worried about the rain forecast for the day, but we managed to stay dry, with occasional glimpses of sunshine.

Although it was cloudy, the view from Cape Hedo was breathtaking, and we could see Yoronjima Island as well. At Oishi Forest Park, we had the surprise of encountering a wild family of small boars. The strangely shaped rocks and the impressive giant banyan tree were incredibly soothing.

After that, we enjoyed a lunch buffet at the hotel. Honestly, I overindulged... It was just too delicious...

Since it was a tour to the northernmost point of Okinawa, we had a long bus ride, but the spacious seating and the music from Okinawan musicians made it a comfortable and relaxing experience. The tour guide's explanations were thorough and very easy to understand, making for a highly satisfying day.

I would love to go back on a sunny day!

前日は雷雨で梅雨入り。当日も雨予報でどうなる事かと思いましたが、時折晴れ間も見られるなど無事濡れずに済みました。
曇り空であったものの、辺戸岬からの眺めは絶景で、与論島も見渡すことが出来ました。
大石林山では野生の小さいイノシシ親子に遭遇するサプライズ。
不思議な形の岩と迫力満点な巨大ガジュマルに大いに癒されました。
その後はホテルでのランチビュッフェ。
正直、食べ過ぎました。。。
美味し過ぎました。。。
沖縄最北端へのツアーの為、長時間のバス移動でしたが、シート間隔が広く、また沖縄出身ミュージシャンの歌が流れるなど快適にくつろげました。
添乗員さんの説明も丁寧でとてもわかりやすく、大満足な一日となりました。
快晴の日にまた行きたいなー。

The tour was really nice and made seeing Okinawa easier as the public transport was hard to understand. The aquarium was the only reason we did the tour but the other stops were entertaining as well. The aquarium was really nice and we probably could have used more than 3 hours here but it was just enough and we got to see the dolphin show.

Since this is my second time visiting Taketomi Island, I chose a relaxed rental bicycle plan this time. I think the size of Taketomi Island is just right for exploring by bicycle. This plan includes not only the ferry ticket and rental bicycle fee but also round-trip transportation from the hotel and luggage storage service at the island terminal, so I found it to be a great deal.

竹富島に行くのは2回目なので、今回はのんびりレンタサイクルのプランを選びました。竹富島の広さは、レンタサイクルくらいがちょうどいいなと思います。このプランには乗船券とレンタサイクル代だけではなく、ホテルからの往復送迎や離島ターミナルでの荷物預かりのサービスもついているので、とてもお得だと思いました。

I was able to see the Blue Cave, and it was a wonderful experience. I also got to feed the fish, which made for a very fulfilling time.

青の洞窟も見ることができ、非常にいい経験をすることができました。
魚に餌をあげることもでき、密度の濃い時間を過ごすことができまし。

Iriomote's mangrove cruise was easy to understand thanks to the detailed explanations from the guide, and the scenery while riding the water buffalo to Yufu was breathtaking! Additionally, Taketomi Island is simply a wonderful place; the flowers are beautiful, and riding the water buffalo while exploring is incredibly soothing. I traveled alone, but I had a great time. I highly recommend this!

西表はマングローブクルーズはガイドさんの細かい説明で分かりやすかったし、水牛にのって由布へ行く時の景色のすごさは感動！そして竹富島はなんともいえない良いところ花は綺麗だし水牛に乗って散策してるときはすごく癒されます。一人旅でしたがすごく楽しめました。これはオススメです！

We were taken by boat to the point, and from there, we made our way to the Blue Cave while holding onto floaties. Since it was deep, the child who came with us held onto the floatie the whole time.

The scenery was truly beautiful, and I was moved by the otherworldly experience.

It's a pity that my child couldn't participate in the marine walk because they couldn't equalize their ears. Other children from the families participating also had trouble with equalizing. For kids around 9 years old, the marine walk might be a bit challenging. Even for adults, it can be painful for the ears at first, but walking underwater is a lot of fun. I would like to participate again when my child is a bit older.

ボートでポイントまで連れていってもらい、そこから浮き輪などにつかまりながら青の洞窟まで行きます。深いので一緒に行った子供はずっと浮き輪につかまりながら移動しました。
景色はやっぱり美しくて日常ではない世界に感動します。

マリンウォークは子供が耳抜きできずに体験できなかったことが残念です。
他に参加していた家族の子供も耳抜きが出来ませんでした。
9歳くらいの子供はマリンウォークは若干厳しいかもしれません。
大人でも最初は耳痛いと思いますが、海の中の散歩はとても楽しいです。
子供がもう少し大きくなったら、また参加してみたいです。

The Churaumi Aquarium focused on areas I couldn't see during my last tour, and I also entered the botanical garden associated with it, where I was able to see beautiful flowers that truly refreshed my spirit. On Kouri Island, I enjoyed a leisurely walk along the sandy beach. At the underwater observatory, I was able to observe many tropical fish, and at American Village, I spent the day enjoying some window shopping and an early dinner. However, I felt that the conversation between the bus driver and the tour guide was a bit too loud. I would have appreciated it if they could have spoken a little more quietly. Other than that, I am very satisfied.

美ら海水族館は前回のツアーで観れなかった所を中心に見て回り、関連施設の植物園の方にも入園し、綺麗な花を見ることが出来、心が癒されました。古宇利島では砂浜をのんびり散歩させて頂くことが出来ました。海中展望台では、多くの熱帯魚を観察することが出来、アメリカンビレッジではウインドショッピングを中心に、早めの夕食と一日中、楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。ただ一点、バスの運転手と添乗員の私語の会話が少し声が大きかったような気がしました。もう少し、小声で話をして頂ければと思いました。それ以外は満足しています。

I booked the 8 AM tour. The location of the shop was a bit difficult to find, but I arrived safely. Once I got to the shop, I received a brief explanation and stored my valuables in a locker. I had brought an SD card for my underwater camera, but I was told I couldn't use it because it was a Wi-Fi-enabled SD card. They were selling SD cards at the shop for 1,000 yen, but I decided not to buy one.

After that, I changed into a life jacket. The changing room had three showers and two toilets. Once I changed, I walked to the boat, received a snorkeling briefing on board, and we set off, arriving in about 5 to 10 minutes.

We swam to the cave and lined up at the spot that appeared the bluest. The blue color was truly beautiful, and I was moved. Those who borrowed underwater cameras could take pictures at this location. The day I participated wasn't too crowded, but I was surprised to hear that during peak times, about 300 people line up inside the cave.

After that, we fed the fish before returning to the boat. I was disappointed that I didn't have enough time to enjoy snorkeling at a leisurely pace. Also, wearing the life jacket made it very difficult to swim; I wanted to see the fish up close, but I was constantly floating, so I couldn't dive. The Blue Cave was beautiful, and it was a valuable experience, but I wished I could have enjoyed it a bit more leisurely.

朝８時のツアーで予約しました。
お店の位置がわかりにくく少し迷いましたが無事に到着しました。
お店についたら簡単な説明を受け、貴重品をロッカーに預けました。水中カメラ用にSDカードを持っていっていたのですが、wifi内蔵SDカードだったので使用できないと言われました。お店でSDカード（１０００円）を売っていましたが買うのはやめました。
その後ライフジャケットに着替えました。更衣室には、シャワーが３つ、トイレが２つありました。着替えたら船まで歩いて行き、船の上でシュノーケリングの説明を受けたあと出発し５〜１０分程度で到着しました。
洞窟まで泳いで行き、一番青く見えるスポットまで並びました。ほんとにきれいな青色で感動しました。水中カメラを借りた方はこの場所で写真を撮ってもらえます。
参加した日はあまり混んでいませんでしたが、ピーク時は洞窟内に３００人くらい並ぶと聞き驚きました。
その後船に戻るまでの間で魚にえさをあげて終わりでした。
シュノーケリングをゆっくり楽しむ時間がなかったので残念でした。
また、ライフジャケットをつけているのでとても泳ぎにくく、魚を近くで見たかったのですが、常に体が浮いた状態なので潜ることもできませんでした。
青の洞窟はきれいで、貴重な体験ができよかったですが、もう少しゆっくり楽しみたかったです。

We took one day tour to visit the aquarium and other famous spots. The tour was very well organized , the lead guide was really cheerful , cooperative and gave a great overview of Okinawa and the tour places. Even arranged vegetarian food on request.

The only minor issue we had was that since our pick up point was the first in the morning , we had to go around to all pick up points before starting the tour almost 3 hours after boarding.

Initially, the waves were high, and I was worried we might not be able to enter the Blue Cave, but thankfully we were able to go in. Moreover, we were lucky that the cave was not crowded, allowing us to stay for a while. The kayak ride to the cave was also a lot of fun.

当初、波が高く、青の洞窟内には入れないかもとのことでしたが、無事、入ることができ、よかったです。しかも、運よく洞窟内がすいていたため、長居することができました。洞窟までのカヤックもとても楽しかったです。

Since it was during Golden Week, the Phantom Island was more crowded than expected (laughs), but the scenery was exactly as depicted in guidebooks, and just being there was satisfying. The guide was friendly and provided various explanations, so even though the time was short, I was able to relax and enjoy the tour very much. The equipment was all new and clean, which was a big plus. I have snorkeled in places like Okinawa, the Great Barrier Reef, and Palau, but the clarity of the water here was the highest, and the number and variety of fish I saw were the best. I hope to try diving when my son gets older. I hope the coral has recovered a bit by then.

GWの参加だったので、幻の島は予想以上に混雑していた(笑)けれど、ガイドブック等に載っている正にそのままの景色が広がり、もはやその場に居るだけで満足という感じだった。ガイドさんが気さくに声をかけて下さったり様々な説明をして下さるので、短い時間ではあったがとてもリラックスしてツアーを楽しむことができた。機材はどれも新しくきれいだったのもポイント高い。これまで沖縄本島やGBR、パラオなどでもシュノーケリングしたが、どこよりも透明度が高く、見られた魚の数も種類も一番だった。息子が大きくなったら、是非ダイビングに挑戦したいと思った。それまでにサンゴが少しでも復活していてくれますように。

I usually visit Okinawa about three times a year. This time during Golden Week, I rented a car, but considering the distance and traffic, I found it cumbersome to drive myself. So, I chose this course that includes the Oishi Forest, which I hadn't been to before, among the many options available at the Churaumi Aquarium.

Both Cape Hedo and Oishi Forest were perfect walking courses for my legs that had been sitting on the bus, allowing me to enjoy wonderful and unique views. The lunch buffet was also delicious.

While there was a huge traffic jam for regular cars trying to enter the parking lot at the Churaumi Aquarium, tourist buses have their own parking area, so we were free from the congestion.

I heard that the bus for this course is spacious and comfortable, making the travel time relaxed and enjoyable.

多い年は 年に3回位が行く沖縄です。
ゴールデンウィークの今回もレンタカーを借りていたのですが
距離や渋滞を考えると 自分で運転するのが億劫で、沢山ある美ら海水族館コースの中で、行ったことのない大石林山の含まれてている こちらのコースを選択しました。
辺戸岬も大石林山も バスで座りっきりだった足にちょうど良い お散歩コースで
素敵な眺め 珍しい眺めを 堪能できました。
昼食のバイキングも 美味しかったです。
美ら海水族館は 一般車は駐車場に入るために大渋滞でしたが、観光バスは専用駐車場があるので 渋滞とは無縁でした。

このコースのバスは 足元も広々の ゆったりめのバスが使われているそうで
移動時間も のびのび楽々でした。

This tour was great fun. The pineapple park wasn't a long visit but you could see some different types of pineapples growing take a stroll though the garden and enjoy sampling different types of drinks. The butterflies were very big and friendly and would land on people who stopped long enough to look at them. It makes everyone feel like a Disney princess. The aquarium is beautiful with a lot of information on sharks and had a good dolphin show and opportunities to feed the dolphins (if you find the hidden. Spot before it closes) they keep doing the dolphin show even when the weather was really bad. Lunch was provided at the butterfly place and it decent. A nice bowl of udon but not super filling.

On the day of the trip, the boat to the Blue Cave was not departing, so we changed to a different location. I felt disappointed, and I was expecting a female guide, but to my surprise, it was a male guide (laughs). At first, I was anxious and nervous.

However, perhaps it was the guide's personality (I forgot to ask his name), but he was very kind and easy to talk to. He provided detailed explanations about clownfish, which helped ease my initial anxiety. I really enjoyed snorkeling and felt rejuvenated by the sea and the fish. I made some wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

The only regret is not being able to go to the Blue Cave, so I would like to try again.

当日は青の洞窟までの船が出航しないとのことで別のポイントに変更になりました。残念な気持ちと女性ガイドさんかと思っていたらまさかの男性ガイドさん笑 はじめは不安と緊張でした。

しかし、ガイドさんの(お名前お伺うの忘れてしまいました。)お人柄なのでしょうか。とても優しく話しやすいガイドさんでクマノミについての説明も詳しくして頂けました。はじめの不安も無くなりシュノーケリングも凄く楽しめて海と魚に癒されました。良い思い出が増えました。ありがとうございました‼

青の洞窟に行けなかったのが唯一心残りなので、またリベンジしたいと思います。

It seems that there are many staff members available, and while the pre-explanation and the boat ride will be conducted in a group setting with other participants, each group will have a dedicated staff member for the experience, providing a nice sense of privacy (with a group-exclusive system). Additionally, you can take photos with a dedicated camera, resulting in very high-quality images. One downside is that after the experience, changing clothes tends to be crowded in the changing room since everyone does it at the same time. Unfortunately, on the day of our visit, the waves were high, and we couldn't enter the Blue Cave, but overall, I was very satisfied.

スタッフさんが多く在籍しているようで、事前説明や船は他のグループの方と一緒になるため団体行動となるものの、体験タイピングは各グループ単位で担当スタッフがついてくれ、上手にプライベート感覚(1グループ貸切制)で対応頂けます。また、専用のカメラで撮影いただけるので画質が非常に良いです。難は体験が終わった後の着替えが、どうしても一斉となるため更衣室が混みあいます。また、当日は波が高く青の洞窟には入れず残念でしたが、全体的に非常に満足です。

Unfortunately for me the weather was turning bad that day so the water was a little murky but they posted a sign saying how clear the water would be and how stable the boat would be and it was accurate. I had a fabulous time and inwould recommend anyone to take this tour. The lunch at the hotel was nice I liked that they had shabu shabu, but mostlynit was Chinese style foods.

I used the service on a Saturday in April, and it was almost full. I thought it might be noisy since there were people from various countries, but surprisingly, the interior was quite quiet. You can choose your favorite seat in the order of pickup, so if you have more than three people, you might end up sitting apart, which is something to consider. I think it's a nice service that the guide asked for requests regarding drop-off locations. Overall, I believe it's a good course that allows you to visit the famous spots in Okinawa.

4月の土曜日に利用しましたがほぼ満席でした。多国籍の方が乗車されるので騒がしいかなと思いましたが車内は案外静かでした。ピックアップ順に好きな席に座るので３人以上は席が離れてしまう場合があるので配慮して欲しいですね。ガイドさんが降車場所のリクエストを聞いていたので親切なサービスだと思います。
全体的には沖縄の名所を回れる良いコースだと思います。
