Okinawa
Okinawa is a place where you can't get around for sightseeing without a car. Since we are a pair of seniors, we couldn't rent a car for sightseeing, so we participated in this tour. It was great that we could efficiently enjoy the sights. I didn't want to struggle with choosing a restaurant for dinner, so I opted for the dinner option. I was satisfied with the taste and quantity of the food, as well as the chef's performance.
沖縄は車がないと観光で回ることができない所です。シニアの2人連れですので、レンタカーを借りての観光ができず、このツアーに参加しました。
効率良く観光することができて良かったてす。何を食べようかとお店選びに迷うのが嫌だったので、夕食付きにしました。料理の味と量、コックさんのパフォーマンスに満足できました。。
I recommend getting the meal plan.
食事付きがお勧めです。
It was very enjoyable to be able to visit the main tourist attractions by bus. I think it was a great deal since it included souvenirs and admission to the aquarium! There were times when I felt there wasn't enough time, but I was satisfied because we could go to various places.
However, there were many foreign tourists, and some people were late for the bus meeting time. We ended up waiting for those who were late, which pushed our total time back by about 30 minutes, so that was disappointing. I think it depends on luck, but it can be a bit frustrating, so it might not be suitable for those who are particular about time management.
Aside from that point, everything was very good.
主要な観光地をバスで巡れるのでとても楽でした。お土産や水族館の入園料もついており、とてもお得だと思います!時間が少ないなぁと思うこともありましたが、いろんなところに行けるので満足です。
ただ、外国人の方も多くバスの集合時間に遅れる人もおり、遅れている人たちを待っているのにトータルの時間で30分は押していたのでそこは残念でした。そこに関しては運だと思いますが、少し残念な気持ちになりますので、時間管理がきちんとしている人は向かない部分もあるかもしれないです。
その点以外はとてもよかったです。
Since there is a lot of traffic congestion in Naha City on the way back, I think it's better to allow some extra time in your schedule after the tour.
帰りの那覇市内の交通渋滞が多いのでツアー後のスケジュールには余裕をもった方が良いと思います。
I participated as a solo female traveler.
It was great to efficiently visit attractions like the Churaumi Aquarium by sightseeing bus. The tour was mostly with foreigners (many from China and South Korea), but I had a fun time sightseeing. Next time, I would like to join a different tour as a solo participant again. Being able to get on and off right in front of my hotel (Orion Hotel Naha) was also a plus.
女性の1人参加です。
観光バスで美ら海水族館等の名所を効率よく回れて良かったです。
外国人の方と一緒のツアーでほぼ外国人(中国、韓国辺りの方が多かった)でしたが楽しく観光出来ました。今度は違うツアーでまたひとり参加をしたいです。 自分の宿泊ホテル前で乗車下車出来るのもポイントでした。(オリオンホテル那覇泊)
At the aquarium, buses are parked in the large bus parking lot, so you will have to walk quite a bit to the entrance—about 10 minutes one way? The aquarium is also quite spacious, so if you don't move
水族館では大型バス駐車場にバスを止めるので水族館入り口まではかなり歩きます。片道10分くらい? 水族館内も広いのでサクサク進まないと最後まで観られない可能性があります。
I had a great time even with the afternoon flight. Since the cycling is available for a full day rental, I think it's necessary to go in the morning. However, if that's not possible, you can still enjoy a lovely tour by walking around the island or participating in a cart tour.
お昼着の便でも十分楽しめました。
サイクリングは1日レンタルなので、午前から行く必要があるかと思いますが
そうでないなら、島内を徒歩で散歩・牛車ツアー参加ができるので
十分楽しめる素敵なツアーだと思います。
If you're going cycling, you need to go in the morning.
サイクリングするなら午前から行く必要がある
I participated in a bus tour. It was a very fulfilling tour that efficiently covered major sightseeing spots like the Churaumi Aquarium and Kouri Island in just one day!
At the Churaumi Aquarium, I was overwhelmed by the grandeur of the whale sharks and felt relaxed by the dolphins and sea turtles outside the building. On Kouri Island, I was moved by the crystal-clear sea and beautiful scenery, and I took a lot of photos. It was great that we could smoothly access places that would be difficult to visit individually by bus.
However, I felt a bit anxious because the tour guide did not repeatedly communicate the meeting time and place, so I wasn't sure if everyone understood correctly. There were also guests who didn't speak Japanese or English, so it would be kinder to show important information like the meeting time, "P4 parking lot," and that it takes 10 minutes to move on a board at the Churaumi Aquarium or distribute it on paper. Additionally, if they could confirm seatbelt use every time we boarded the bus, I would feel even more secure participating.
Overall, it was a satisfying tour, and being able to visit many sightseeing spots in one day was a significant advantage. I believe that with a little more attention to detail, it could become an even more enjoyable tour.
バスツアーに参加しました。1日で美ら海水族館や古宇利島など、主要な観光スポットを効率的に回ることができ、とても充実したツアーでした!
美ら海水族館ではジンベエザメの迫力に圧倒され、建物の外にいるイルカやウミガメにも癒されました。古宇利島では、透き通るような海と美しい景色に感動し、写真をたくさん撮りました。個人で回るのは難しい場所にもバスでスムーズに行けたのが良かったです。
ただ、添乗員さんが集合時間や集合場所を何度も繰り返し伝えなかったため、全員が正しく理解できているのか少し不安に感じました。日本語や英語が通じないお客さんもいたので、美ら海水族館ではボードに集合時間や「P4駐車場」、移動に10分かかることなどの重要事項を書いて見せたり、紙で配るとより親切になると思います。また、バス乗車時のシートベルト着用の確認も毎回してもらえると、より安心して参加できると感じました。
全体的には満足できるツアーで、1日で多くの観光地を回れるのは大きなメリットでした。もう少し細かい配慮があれば、さらに快適に楽しめるツアーになると思います。
The bus parking lot (P4 parking lot) at Churaumi Aquarium is located far away, and it takes time to move to the parking area. Therefore, for those who walk slowly or are with children, it is recommend
美ら海水族館のバス駐車場(P4駐車場)は離れており、駐車場までの移動に時間がかかるため、歩くのがゆっくりな方やお子様連れの方は、15分以上前には水族館を出発することをおすすめします。
I considered several bus tours that visit Churaumi Aquarium and Pineapple Park, and I chose this one. The deciding factors were that the cost of the self-driving cart at Pineapple Park was included, and with fewer bus stops, we could return to Naha more quickly. On the day of the tour, there was no traffic, and we were able to get off near Makishi Station around 6 PM, allowing us to leisurely stroll through Kokusai Street. It was also nice that a 500ml bottle of water was included. We efficiently visited popular tourist spots, and the tour guide was pleasant, making for a wonderful day. Thank you to the tour guide and the driver.
美ら海水族館とパイナップルパークを巡れるバスツアーをいくつか検討して、こちらのツアーにしました。
決め手はパイナップルパークの自動運転カート代込みと、バス乗降場所が少ない分、早く那覇に帰って来れる点です。当日は渋滞もなく18時頃に牧志駅近くに下車できて国際通りをゆっくり散策出来ました。
500mlのペットボトルのお水も付いていて良かったです。
効率よく人気の観光地をまわれて、添乗員さんも感じが良く、素敵な1日が過ごせました。
添乗員さん、ドライバーさん、ありがとうございます。
This is my fifth time in Okinawa, but I had never been to the northern part, so I joined this tour. As usual, most participants were foreigners, but this tour provided earphone guides and pamphlets tailored to each participant's language at the beginning. During the tour, when the guide signaled "Please turn on your earphone guide," the next sightseeing explanation was provided in each participant's language through the earphone guide.
There are tours where explanations are mainly in Chinese, leaving Japanese participants behind, so I thought this was fair and well thought out.
There were about 15 participants, but they arranged a large bus, allowing us to enjoy the sightseeing comfortably.
沖縄には5回目ぐらいですが、北部に行ったことないのでこのツアーに参加しました。
変わらず外国人参加者大半ですが、
このツアーは最初に各参加者の言語に合わせてイヤホンガイドとパンフレットを渡されます。
ツアー中バス車内で、ガイドさんの「イヤホンガイドの電源を入れてください」の合図とともに、次の観光の説明がイヤホンガイドから各参加者の言語でなされます。
中国語での説明が主で日本人参加者は放置のツアーもあるので(^^;(^^;
これは公平で工夫されていていいなと思いました。
15人ぐらいの参加者でしたが大型のバスを手配してくれてゆったり観光することが出来ました。
I recommend sitting on the left side of the bus (to avoid the sunlight) (^^; (^^;
バスの席は左側オススメ(日差しを避けるため)(^^;(^^;
The Ocean Expo Park was especially wonderful! The Tropical Tropical Center had many large greenhouses filled with tropical plants! I didn't go into the aquarium, but I was able to see the sea turtle pool and manatees outside. At Manza Beach, the wind was strong, and my sunglasses even flew away, but it was very beautiful. The American Village had authentic tacos that were great. I was able to see a lot in one day, and it wasn't too hectic, so I was very satisfied.
海洋博公園は特に素晴らしかった!熱帯トロピカルセンターもいくつもの大きな温室にトロピカルな植物がたくさん!!水族館には入りませんでしたが外の海亀のプールやマナティーも見ることができました。万座毛では風が強く、サングラスも飛ばされてしまいましたがとても美しい。アメリカンビレッジでは本格的なタコスが良かった。
1日でたくさんみて回ることができ、忙しなくもなく、とても満足でした。
I had heard that the winds in Okinawa during winter are strong, and they were particularly strong, but it was good because it was a bus tour.
冬の沖縄は風が強いとは聞いていましたが、特に強かったですけどバスツアーだったので良かった。
I've been to Okinawa three or four times, but this is my first time visiting after the New Year and all the way to the northern tip. I had only ever toured the beaches and Shuri Castle, but this time it was a very interesting and enjoyable trip as we were able to experience history and nature that we didn't know about. Since we didn't have a driver, we joined a one-day tour, which was a great deal and packed with highlights. The guide's explanations were professional and fun, and the fish for lunch was very delicious. I was very satisfied!
沖縄には3、4回来ていますがお正月明け、それに北端まで来たのは初めて。
ビーチや首里城しか観光したことがなかったのですが今回は私たちにとって知らなかった歴史や自然に触れられてとても興味深く楽しい旅でした。ドライバーがいないので1日ツアーに参加し、見どころ満載のお得で充実したツアーでした。ガイドさんの説明もプロで楽しく、ランチのお魚もとても美味でした。大満足!
Okinawa in winter has many attractions, and with fewer people around, you can enjoy various experiences without needing to rent a car.
冬の沖縄も見どころ多く、人も少なく、レンタカー借りなくてもいろいろ体験できます。
It was a satisfying course that allowed us to explore efficiently without wasting time. We were happy to find that eating and drinking were allowed on the bus, and we received a bottle of water and a sweet potato tart as gifts. Most of the tour participants were foreigners. Pineapple Park was more fulfilling than I had imagined, and we almost ran out of time; the butterflies and bougainvillea were beautiful. Although the weather on Kouri Island was unfortunate, we were able to go to the beach and enjoy drinks and soft serve ice cream at Kouri Island Interaction Square. We arrived at the main event, the Churaumi Aquarium, just in time for the dolphin show, but the distance from the bus parking lot to the aquarium made our stay feel shorter than expected. There were many free facilities, such as the dolphin show and the sea turtle pavilion, so it seemed like we could have enjoyed ourselves even without an admission ticket to the Churaumi Aquarium. The Okashi Goten had a great selection of individually sold snacks, allowing us to enjoy various types of sweets. Although the weather at Manzamo was unfortunate, the sata andagi we had at the shop was delicious. I was worried about traffic on the way back, but we arrived in the city earlier than planned. It was disappointing that the tour guide only made minimal announcements and that the audio guide had significant distortion, but overall, I was satisfied with both the course content and the price.
無駄なく効率よく回れて満足できるコースでした。
バス内は飲食可能でお水のペットボトル一本と紅芋タルト一個のプレゼントがあり嬉しかったです。
ツアー参加者はほとんどが外国人でした。
パイナップルパークは想像よりも充実しており、時間が足りないくらいで、蝶々とブーゲンビリアが綺麗でした。古宇利島は生憎の天気でしたが砂浜に行くことができ、古宇利島ふれあい広場で飲み物やソフトクリームを楽しむこともできました。メインイベントの美ら海水族館はちょうどイルカのショーに間に合う時間に到着できましたが、バスの駐車場から水族館までが遠いので滞在時間は思っていたより短く感じました。イルカショーやウミガメ館など無料の施設も多くあったので美ら海水族館入場券が無くとも十分に楽しめそうでした。お菓子御殿はバラ売り販売も充実しており色んな種類のお菓子を楽しめました。最後の万座毛は生憎の天気でしたが、売店で食べたサーターアンダギーが美味しかったです。帰りは渋滞を心配しておりましたが、予定より早く市内に到着しました。
添乗員さんが最低限のアナウンスのみだったこと、音声ガイドの音割れが酷かったことは残念でしたが、コース内容も金額も満足な内容でした。
It's a good idea to plan your route and decide on the shops in advance when visiting places like the Churaumi Aquarium and Kouri Island Interaction Square.
美ら海水族館や古宇利島ふれあい広場などは予め回るルートやお店を決めておくといいです
In one day, we were able to visit popular tourist spots including the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium from Naha, and it was fulfilling. There were many foreign participants, but the tour guide provided clear directions and we kept to the schedule. They were a bright and kind person.
At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, we enjoyed the dolphin show and the manatee exhibit, and the two and a half hours flew by. We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the scenery.
I did wish we had a bit more time at each location, but I was satisfied after trying pineapple at Pineapple Park, Mont Blanc at the Okashi Goten, and sata andagi at Manzamo. I highly recommend this tour!
那覇から一日で美ら海水族館ほか人気観光地を回れ、充実してました
外国人の参加者も多かったですが、添乗員さんがポイントをしっかり案内されてて、時間どおり進みました 明るくて親切なステキな方でした
美ら海水族館ではイルカショーやマナティ館にも行ったりで、2時間半もあっと言う間でした
お天気にも恵まれ、景色を楽しむこともできました
各所、もう少し時間が欲しいなとは思いましたが、パイナップルパークでパイナップル、お菓子御殿でモンブラン、万座毛でサーターアンダギーといろいろ食べて満足、おすすめのツアーです
I was happy to be able to visit American Village after going to the aquarium.
The illumination was very beautiful, and the atmosphere was lovely.
I wished I had a little more time for shopping.
水族館に行き帰りには最後にアメリカンヴィレッジにいけて嬉しかったです。
ライトアップがとっても綺麗で、雰囲気が素敵でした。
お買い物の時間がもう少し時間が欲しかったです。
If you only have one hour at American Village, be careful if you want to enjoy shopping.
アメリカンヴィレッジの所要時間が1時間しか無いのでお買い物を楽しみたい方は注意が必要です。
It was great that there was no wasted time, and it wasn't a hard schedule either, so I was able to enjoy myself. The river journey in Iriomote Island was a bit disappointing because the water wasn't clear, but it still became a good memory.
無駄な時間がなく、かと言って、ハードなスケジュールでもなく、
楽しめたのは良かったです。
西表島の川旅は、水が綺麗でなく、少しガッカリ
それも含めて良い想い出になりました。
Visiting Taketomi Island and Yubu Island, it's interesting to effectively use your free time to walk in areas where there aren't many tourists.
竹富島や由布島は、フリータイムを有効的に使い、
あまり観光客の居ない所を歩くのも面白いです。
I'm glad I was able to visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which I had wanted to go to for a long time.
It was fun to see the dugongs and enjoy the dolphin show.
ずっと行きたかった美ら海水族館に行けてよかった。
ジュゴンが見れたりイルカショーが見れて楽しかった。
Be careful as there are many places with strong sea breezes.
海風が凄いところが多いので注意
It was disappointing that the glass boat tour was canceled due to the weather, but I was happy to meet the red panda at the alternative Neo Park.
天気の関係でグラスボートが中止になったのは残念でしたが、代りのネオパークでレッサーパンダに会えたのは嬉しかった。
Personally, it would have been a tough schedule to manage on my own, so I'm glad I could do it all in one tour.
I was very satisfied.
個人的にこのスケジュールをこなそうとすると大変なスケジュールなので、
一気にツアーで行くことができて良かった。
大満足でした。
You might want to be careful since time is a bit tight.
ちょっと時間がタイトなので気をつけた方が良いかもです。
I stayed at a hotel in Manza without a rental car, so I was looking for tours that depart from Manza and found one. There are many tours departing from Naha City, but there were hardly any tours that could pick us up in Manza to go to Kouri Island, so I was glad to participate. I was satisfied with the efficient sightseeing in places that are not accessible by public bus. The weather was nice, and the beach on Kouri Island was very beautiful and impressive.
レンタカーの予約なしで万座のホテルに宿泊したため、万座から出発できるツアーを探していてヒットしました。
那覇市からの出発ツアーはたくさんあるのですが、万座でピックアップしてもらえる古宇利島に行けるツアーはほとんどなかったので参加できて助かりました。
路線バスでいけない場所に効率よく観光ができて満足です。天気が良かったので古宇利島のビーチが大変美しく印象的でした。
It is possible to get on in Naha City and be dropped off in resort areas like Manza, so it seems useful as a means of transportation.
那覇市内で乗って、万座等のリゾートエリアで降ろしてもらうことも可能なので移動手段としても利用できそうです。

We signed up for this tour because our travel schedule was limited and we didn't have a car, allowing us to visit the main tourist attractions by bus. There was no bus guide, but instead, there was an audio guide on board that provided information. It introduced various knowledge about Okinawa, making it very easy to understand, and I felt it was a great system.
Pineapple Park was not only home to a diverse range of plants beyond my expectations, but it also had dinosaur sculptures on display, making it a wonderful place for both adults and children to enjoy. The Churaumi Aquarium was larger than I expected, and to be honest, I wished we had a bit more time for sightseeing, but I was satisfied to visit one of Okinawa's representative tourist spots. Lunch was scheduled at the aquarium, but considering the limited time and the few restaurant options, I think it might be a good idea to have lunch during the bus ride.
Additionally, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery from the bus windows and the beach at Kouri Island, making it a course where we could fully enjoy the charm of Okinawa within a limited time. I highly recommend this plan for those visiting Okinawa for the first time or for those who do not have a car!
私たちは旅行の日程が限られており、車もなかったため、バスで主要な観光名所を巡ることができるこちらのツアーに申し込みました。本ツアーにはバスガイドはおらず、その代わりに車内での音声ガイドによる案内がありました。沖縄に関するさまざまな知識を紹介してくれるため、とてもわかりやすく、良いシステムだと感じました。
パイナップルパークは想像以上に多様な植物が楽しめるだけでなく、恐竜のオブジェの展示もあり、大人も子どもも楽しめる素敵な場所でした。美ら海水族館は予想よりも広く、正直なところもう少し観光時間が欲しかったですが、沖縄の代表的な観光名所を訪れることができて満足でした。昼食は水族館で取るスケジュールでしたが、時間が限られていることや、レストランの選択肢が少ないことを考えると、バスの移動中に昼食を済ませておくのも一つの方法かと思います。
また、古宇利島のビーチや車窓からの美しい景色も楽しめ、限られた時間の中で沖縄の魅力を十分に満喫できるコースでした。沖縄を初めて訪れる方や、車を持たない方に特におすすめのプランです!
I was able to visit Kouri Island and Pineapple Park, which I hadn't been to yet during my tour of the main island. I couldn't help but think about why pineapples are so cute while taking photos, and the staff who helped us were cheerful, which really lifted my spirits! I also got to enjoy a lot of delicious food from Okinawa, and I finally made it to Kouri Island. The guide was very kind and shared many stories about Okinawa's legends and history, and they were great at singing too! The weather was wonderful, making it a fun tour.
本島巡りで、まだ行けていなかった古宇利島、パイナップルパークにも行けました。
パイナップルって、なんで可愛いんだろう、、って思いながら、写真撮って貰う時のスタッフさんも明るくて、ついついテンション上がりました!
沖縄の美味しいものも沢山食べたり、念願の古宇利島へも行けて、ガイドさんも親切に沢山いろんな沖縄の伝説や歴史について話してくださり、歌も上手でした!
天気にも恵まれて楽しいツアーでした。
Depending on the tourist destination, the duration of your stay may vary, so to avoid rushing, I recommend deciding on your itinerary in advance while on the bus before you arrive!
観光地によって、滞在時間が違うのでバタバタしないように、到着する前に、バスの中で予めコースを決めておくことをおすすめします!

After getting on the bus, my friend, who started feeling unwell after a while, surprised us by saying she wanted to go back to the hotel. We decided to consult the guide, and after talking to them, they provided us with polite assistance, allowing her to recover and enjoy the rest of the trip.
This was my fifth time in Okinawa, but it was my friend's first visit, so I was relieved we didn't have to make any unscheduled stops. I usually rely on public transportation and walking to reach my destinations, so this was my first time taking a bus like this. I enjoyed visiting Pineapple Park, Manzamo, and Kouri Bridge, which were all new experiences for me. Thank you to the guide and the driver.
If I had to say something, I wish I could have spent a little more time at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. However, given our packed schedule, I suppose time constraints are inevitable.
バスに乗って、しばらくして体調不良を訴えた友人は、ここでホテルに帰ると言い出してびっくり。ガイドさんに相談してみよう、ということで、話したら丁寧な対応をしていただいて彼女は復調して最後まで楽しむことができました。
私は沖縄5回目でしたが、友人は初めてでしたし、途中下車しなくてよかったです。
私は、今まで自力主義で路線バスや歩きで目的まで行くので、こういうバスに乗ったのは初めてでした。パイナップルパークや万座毛、古宇利大橋は初めてでしたの、楽しめました。
ガイドさん、ドライバーさん、ありがとうございました。
あえて言えば、もう少し、美ら海水族館にいたかった・・です。欲張りな日程なので、時間不足は敷かないのでしょうが。
The scenery was beautiful, and we visited several places in one day. Both the driver and the guide were great. I will book again later. I am very satisfied.
景色がきれいで、一日にいくつかの場所に行きました。運転手もガイドもいいです。後でまた予約する。とても満足です
It was my first time in Okinawa and my first bus tour, and I was very satisfied. It was a great deal to visit so many places in one day with entry tickets included.
The tour guide's enthusiasm and consideration to ensure everyone had a good time were wonderful!
The souvenir shop's recommendation of "this is what we recommend here" was also nice.
However, I was surprised that… I was told via email that it would be a white or red bus, but when I waited, it didn't come at all. The tour guide called out names and helped me find it, so I was able to board safely, but the bus that arrived was blue.
I was a bit worried when I signed up, wondering if this bus company would be okay, but I was very satisfied with my choice. I would like to use their services again when I come back to Okinawa.
初めての沖縄で初めてのバスツアーでしたが大満足です。
1日でこれだけ回れて入場券付きはお得。
添乗員さんの全力で楽しんでもらおうという意気込み気遣いが素晴らしい!!
お土産さんの「ここではこれがオススメですよ」も良かったです。
ただひとつびっくりしたのは……メールで白か赤のバスですとのことだったので、待っていたらぜんぜん来なくて。
添乗員さんが名前を呼んで探してくれたので無事に乗れましたが。当日来たのはブルーのバスでした。
申し込む時はこのバス会社で大丈夫かなぁと不安でしたが申し込んで大満足でした。また沖縄に来た時はお世話になりたいと思います。
Seating is first-come, first-served. The seats on the right get sunlight both going and coming back.
座席は自由だから早い者勝ち。右の席は行きも帰りも日が当たる。
It was supposed to rain, but surprisingly, the clouds held off. Although it was slower than walking, I applaud the water buffalo for their effort. I encountered a kingfisher in the mangroves, which made for a very enjoyable time. Finally, we visited Taketomi Island. It was full of old-fashioned charm, and I was able to savor the good old days. I would love to come back again.
雨予報でしたが、なんと雲でもってくれました。時間的には、徒歩より遅いですが、水牛のがんばりに、拍手👏。マングローブでは、カワセミに遭遇。ととても楽しい時間でした。最後は、竹富島。昔の雰囲気がいっぱいで、古き良き時代を満喫できました。再度来たいと思います。
Be careful of urination in the front seat of the water buffalo cart!
水牛車の先頭席は、放尿に注意!
It's quite challenging to arrange everything on your own, but being able to leave it all to someone else is really helpful. I highly recommend this for those who want to visit various places and see different sights, even if it's a bit rushed! The transportation to and from the hotel and experience locations is very thorough! The bus driver on Iriomote Island was also very entertaining. I have difficulty walking and used a cane, but they were very considerate about the seating, and I was extremely satisfied.
個人で手配すると大変ですが全てお任せ出来るのがとても助かります。少し駆け足ですが色々な所を回りたい、見たい人には凄くおすすめです!ホテルまでの送迎や体験場所までの送迎もついて至れり尽くせりです!西表島のバスの運転手さんの話も面白かったです。足が悪く杖をついていましたが、座席なども気を使って頂いて大満足でした。
First of all, the bus driver who guided us around Iriomote Island was very good at explaining things, which was great. The water buffalo cart to Yufu Island was also nice because we could listen to live sanshin music. However, I felt that we had a bit too much free time on Yufu Island itself. After that, we had the Nakama River mangrove tour, but I think it would have been more enjoyable to reverse the order, shorten the time on Yufu Island, and extend the time on Taketomi Island.
先ず、西表島は島内移動バスの運転手さんのガイドは説明が上手く、良かったです。
由布島への水牛車も、三線生歌を聞けて良かったです。
ただ、由布島自体は少し時間を持て余す感じでした。
その後、仲間川マングローブツアーでしたが、順番は逆にして由布島も短くして、
竹富島の時間を長くした方が楽しめる気がしました。
It's a tour that feels rushed. If you're departing from Ishigaki Island and it's your first visit, it will inevitably be a one-day tour. However, if possible, staying overnight on Iriomote Island and
時間に追われるツアーです。
石垣島出発で初訪問だと、どうしても1日で巡るツアーになると思いますが、出来れば西表島にも宿泊して、ナイトツアーも組み込んだ方が楽しめそうです。
It's a completely different world from the main island! Each island is totally different. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. I chose to explore Taketomi freely, but getting around was inconvenient. Next time, I would like to rent a bicycle.
とにかく本島とは別世界!
島ごとにぜんぜん違います。
とにかく素敵な体験ができました。
竹富はフリー散策にしたのですが、移動が不便でした。次回は、自転車を借りたいと思いました。
It was a relaxing and heartwarming day trip. After arriving at Iriomote Island, the bus driver who took us from the port to Yufu Island entertained us with witty talk, filling the vehicle with laughter and smiles. Additionally, the water buffalo pulling the cart to Yufu Island had names, and we were introduced to their personalities, which was delightful.
On Taketomi Island, there are options for transportation such as rental bicycles and carts, but walking slowly allowed us to make many small discoveries. The sight of the water buffalo cart moving leisurely along the alleys surrounded by coral stone walls and flowers will remain a cherished memory of Taketomi Island.
のんびり、ほっこりできた日帰りツアーでした。
西表島に到着後、港から由布島までの移動でお世話になったバスドライバーの軽妙なトークで、車内は笑いと笑顔で満たされました。また、由布島までのんびりと牛車を引っ張る水牛くんには名前がついており、それぞれの性格まで紹介して頂き、ほっこりしました。
竹富島での移動にはレンタサイクルや牛車などがありますが、徒歩でゆっくり巡ったお陰で沢山の小さな発見がありました。珊瑚の石垣と花に囲まれた路地を歩きながら見た、水牛の牛車がのんびりと移動する様子は、竹富島の良い思い出として心に残りました。
While the world is going cashless, there were situations on the island where cash was necessary. I visited in January, and the temperature difference was over 10°C compared to the mainland, with stron
世の中はキャシュレスですが、島内ではキャッシュが必要な場面がありました。また1月での訪問でしたが、気温差が本土と10℃以上あり、日差しも強いので、服装や帽子の準備などに留意された方が良いと思います。
The main purpose of this trip was to ride the water buffalo cart, and I learned a lot from the explanations about the mangroves. Hearing about the unique natural formation of the subtropics and seeing it right in front of me made for a great experience. Riding the water buffalo was a first for me, and each buffalo had its own personality, which was fun. The tour was truly wonderful.
今回水牛車に乗るのが一番の目的でしたかか、マングローブについていろいろ説明を受けて勉強になりました。亜熱帯ならではの自然の成り立ちを聞き目の前に広がり、良い体験になりました。水牛車は初めての体験で乗る水牛によって個性があり楽しかったです。
ツアーは本当に素晴らしかったです。
It was my first time on Iriomote Island. We traveled by bus from the port to the cart station on Yufu Island, and the driver provided a really entertaining guide, making it a fun experience. The cart ride, the exploration of Yufu Island, and the lunch bento were all delicious. I definitely want to go back if I have the chance.
初めての西表島でした。港から由布島の
牛車乗り場まで、バスで移動でしたが運転士さんが凄い面白いガイドをしていただき楽しい時間でした。牛車も由布島の散策や昼食のお弁当も美味しいかったですね。又機会があれば是非行きたいところです。
If you have some free time, I think it would be great to enjoy the natural heritage of Iriomote Island, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site, from various perspectives.
時間に余裕があり、又西表島は世界遺産の島なので自然遺産をいろいろな角度から楽しい時間を過ごしてもらえたらいいかなぁと思います。
There were many types of corals and fish, and they provided a lot of explanations! The storytelling was excellent, easy to understand, and I had a great time. I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle, which really boosted my excitement. Thank you very much!
