The waterfall and snorkeling were amazing! Every view was beautiful and moving! The guide's stories were also interesting and enjoyable. It was physically demanding, but I felt like I could really enjoy each part! I was able to swim a lot at the waterfall and even saw sea turtles. We got some great photos, so I have plenty of memories. I definitely had muscle pain the next day. The woman's angry voice in the shop was scary. The tour was very fun and made me feel happy!
滝もシュノーケリングも最高でした!どの景色もキレイで感動しました!ガイドさんの話しもおもしろくて良かったです。
体力のいる内容でしたが、一つ一つしっかり楽しめた気がします!滝でもたくさん泳げて、ウミガメもみれました。写真もとってもらえたので思い出いっぱいです。次の日からしっかり筋肉痛になりました
ショップ内にいた女の人が怒る声が怖かったです。ツアーはとっても楽しくて幸せな気持ちになりました!!

I decided to participate based on the words snorkeling, Hatoma Island, and Barasu Island, and it was a great decision. Despite the approaching Typhoon No. 14 after the previous one, the morning was calm, and we were able to land on Barasu Island, fulfilling a long-held wish. I was amazed by the beauty of the coral reefs in the morning. Following the staff's lead made me feel at ease. For lunch, we landed on Hatoma Island. It was unfortunate that we couldn't explore the island due to the high number of COVID cases, but I was glad to experience Hatoma Blue. In the afternoon, we went to pick up the next group at Uehara Port and then headed to a different point. I was happy to encounter a sea turtle this time. Meeting Nemo was also fantastic, but I started to feel seasick around the fourth point as the waves picked up.
シュノーケリング、鳩間島、バラス島、このワードで参加を決めましたが大正解。台風後、また、14号接近するなかの参加。午前中は、波も静かでバラス島にも上陸でき念願叶いました。午前中は珊瑚礁があまりにもきれいで驚き。スタッフの先導でついていくスタイルだと安心します。昼は鳩間島に上陸。コロナが多数でたこともあり島の中は見学できなかったのが残念でしたが鳩間ブルーにも出会えたし良かったです。午後組を一度迎えに上原港まで迎えに行き、また、違うポイントへいく。今度は海亀に出会えて嬉しかった。ニモにも会わせてくれて最高でしたが4ポイント目辺りから波が出てきて船酔いしてしまった。

Originally, I had signed up for the SUP @ Mangrove and snorkeling tour at Barasu Island, but due to poor conditions around Barasu Island, I received an inquiry the day before asking, "Would you like to cancel? Or switch to another tour?" Since I was already there, I decided to book the trekking and SUP @ Mangrove tour, and that turned out to be a great decision! The instructor, Matsuko, had only been there for a few months, but she was very knowledgeable about Iriomote Island. She shared many interesting tidbits during our travel, including stories about the road construction that was halted and a simulator game at the wildcat museum.
After arriving, we all moved to the point with a simple mountain climb. Along the way, she introduced us to the flora and fauna of Iriomote Island. Coincidentally, there were four couples participating, including my husband and me: a couple who were masters of remote islands, a chatty couple from Kansai (Shikoku), and a calm yet friendly couple. Everyone was very approachable, and we became close through activities like diving. My usually quiet husband seemed to have a lot of fun, adding his own flair during the dives and really enjoying himself. At the end of the activities, the remote island master couple recommended a dining spot, which we promptly visited. The other couples also enjoyed hearing stories about different remote islands from them. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories, instructor Matsuko, and to all the couples! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Oh, and about the clothing: I thought I would be wearing a wetsuit over my swimsuit, so I wore my swimsuit, but the equipment provided included only a helmet, shoes, and a jacket. Everyone else was dressed in T-shirts or rash guards over their swimsuits, and shorts or leggings. I didn't have those, so I ended up wearing pajamas (short-sleeved & relaxed fit) over my swimsuit, which felt quite silly and embarrassing, especially since it would be captured in photos (though it could make for a funny story). I think it would be wise to consider your outfit if you participate!
もともと、SUP@マングローブとバラス島上陸のシュノーケルツアーを申し込んでいましたが、バラス島周辺のコンディションが悪く、「キャンセルしますか?別のツアーにしますか?」の問い合わせが前日にありました。折角なのでトレッキングとSUP@マングローブでツアーを申し込んだ所、それがもう大正解!インストラクターのマツコさんはまだ来て数ヶ月との事でしたが、西表島の事をよくご存知で、道路工事が途中で中断してしまった話や、ヤマネコの博物館(?)のシュミレーターゲームの話などなど、移動中に小ネタを沢山話してくれました。到着後、皆でポイントまで簡単な山登りをしながら移動。途中、西表島の動植物についても紹介してもらいました。たまたま参加していたメンバーが、私達夫婦を含めて4カップル。離島マスター夫婦、お喋り関西人夫婦(四国)、穏やかだけど気さくに話せる夫婦、とメンバーも皆親しみやすく、飛び込みを始めとしたアクティビティを通じて仲良くなりました。普段寡黙な主人も相当楽しかったようで、飛び込み時にアレンジを加えたり、凄く楽しんでいました。アクティビティ終わりには離島マスター夫婦からおススメの食事処を教えてもらい、早速訪ねてみました。他の夫婦達も離島マスター夫婦から別の離島の話を聞いたりして楽しんでました。本当に最高の思い出をありがとうございました、インストラクターのマツコさん、それぞれの夫婦の皆さま!残りの旅を楽しんでください!
そうだ、あとは、服装ですが、私は水着の上からウェットスーツを着用すると思ったので、水着を着て行ったのですが、装備として渡されるのは、ヘルメットとシューズとジャケットのみなので、皆は水着の上にTシャツやラッシュガード、下はスパッツにハーパンのような格好でした。私はそれらの用意がなかったので、水着の上からパジャマ(半袖&リラコ)を着用して臨みましたが、大分ダサくて恥ずかしかったですし笑、写真にも残ってしまうので(ネタにはなりますが笑)ご参加される際は、格好を考えたほうがいいかもなって思いました。

Snorkeling at Barasu Island in the morning.
In the afternoon, we did mangrove stand-up paddleboarding.
It was a full-day course, and it ended so quickly because we had so much fun.
Our guide was Gakki.
Her powerful guidance was at just the right pace—not too fast and not too slow!
Thanks to her, we talked about so many things throughout the day about the ocean and the mangroves, making it an incredibly enjoyable day!

I was worried about my physical stamina as I entered my 50s, but in the end, I was able to keep up without any problems.
The guide was experienced and made the trekking and canoeing enjoyable by sharing stories about the nature of Iriomote Island.
At the beginning of the canoeing, they taught us how to operate the canoe, and once we were on it, it felt manageable.
Along the way, they provided detailed instructions about shallow areas and obstacles, so I was able to paddle with confidence.
During the trekking, they also informed us about slightly dangerous spots in advance, and they allowed the least fit person to lead, which made it easy to enjoy the experience. They took photos at key moments, so we created wonderful memories as a family.
I think this is a great tour for experiencing the nature of Iriomote Island. Thank you, guide!
50代に入り体力的に心配でしたが、終わってみて、問題なくついていくことができました。
ガイドの方は経験豊富で西表島の自然についてお話を交えながらトレッキングやカヌーを楽しませて下さいました。
カヌーの始めに操作の仕方を教えて下さいますし、乗った後は感覚的に何とかなるものでした。
途中も浅いところ、障害物があるところなど、細かく教えて下さるので、安心して漕ぐことが出来ました。
トレッキング中も少し危ないところなどは予め教えて下さいますし、一番体力のない人を先頭に進み、安心して楽しむことが出来ました。要所要所で写真も撮っていただいたので、家族揃って、とても良い思い出が出来ました。
西表島の自然を体感するのにとても良いツアーだと思います。ガイドさん、ありがとうございました。

Unfortunately, Balas Island was underwater, but I was able to see beautiful coral and three sea turtles, which became a great memory. Since there were no other guests besides us, we could enjoy it at our own pace.
However, one thing I was a bit disappointed about was that after the tour, I received photos via LINE, but I had assumed that we would also receive pictures with us in them. Instead, there were only close-up photos of the sea turtles and clownfish, which was a little disappointing. I didn't remember seeing clownfish that day, so I thought, "The ones we took earlier... right? It must be those," and just accepted it.
残念ながらバラス島は海の中でしたが、
きれいな珊瑚とウミガメを3匹も見ることができて
いい思い出になりました。
私達の他にお客さんがいなかったので私達のペースで楽しめました。
ただひとつ、ツアー後写真をLINEでいただきましたが、勝手に私達も写ったものをいただけると思ってしまっていたので、ウミガメやカクレクマノミなどお魚のアップの写真のみで少し残念でした。自分たちが写っていないことと当日カクレクマノミを見た覚えがなかったのもあり、「さっき撮ったやつ...なんだよね?きっとそうだよね」と飲み込みました。

The day before, I was surprised to learn that if I didn't reconfirm within a limited time, it would be a forced cancellation. During the phone call, I was told, "You know where to meet for the rental car, right? It's by the statue of the wildcat," and I was left speechless... However, when I actually met the guide, he was a seasoned professional who gave off a reassuring vibe, just like the old days!
After our greeting, he suddenly emphasized multiple times, "It's tougher than you might imagine," which I think should be mentioned in the tour details... This is essential information to know before participating in the tour. That's why I decided to write this review.
Since it was scorching hot, I recommend that parents in their 40s and 50s who are desk workers and not used to physical activity really prepare themselves for the summer heat. It's a very enjoyable tour, so I think kids will be just fine! The waterfall was breathtaking and absolutely wonderful!
Also, during low tide, you have to pull the canoe and walk quite a distance on sandy ground, so I believe it could be quite challenging if you don't check the timing. When we went, we barely managed to walk about 20 meters, so we made it back safely.
前日、限られた時間に、こちらからリコンファームしないと強制キャンセルとのことで、驚きました。電話の際も「レンタカーの集合は、やまねこの銅像のとこ、わかるでしょ?」と言われ唖然・・・。でも実際お会いすると、「納得な」感じのベテランのガイドさんで、昔ながらの頼りがいのある方でした!!
が、集合のご挨拶後いきなり「想像以上にきついですから」と何度も念押しされ、、、、それはツアー内容に書いておいほしい・・・。ツアーに参加する前に必要な情報ですよね。。。なのでここに口コミすることにしました。
炎天下ですので真夏はかなり気合いれて参加してください@デスクワークで体動かしていない40~50代のお父さんお母さん。とても楽しいツアーですのでお子さんは全然大丈夫とおもいます!!滝は圧巻ですばらしかった!
なお、干潮時は、カヌーを引っ張ってかなりの距離、砂地歩くのでこの時間帯を確認しないと大変なことになると思います。私らの時はギリギリ、20mほどあるく程度ですんだので、生還できました。
Thank you for using our service. I think it can be quite tough for those who don't walk regularly. The heat in Okinawa must have made it even more challenging. If there's another opportunity, I look forward to working with you again. Thank you.
この度は、ご利用いただきましてありがとうございました。日頃歩かれない方には、かなりきついと思います。沖縄の暑さもあって大変だったと思います。

First of all, the male guide was very enjoyable, and I was glad that he provided a thorough guide even during the busy tourist season.
The first half, canoeing and trekking to Pinai Sara Falls, was initially challenging with the canoeing, but as I got used to it, it became fun and I wanted to paddle more. The Pinai Sara Falls were surprisingly impressive, and the rice balls we ate under the falls were delicious. Thanks to the guide, my wife, who is not very athletic, was also able to enjoy it. Since there were small children participating as well, I think anyone without physical limitations can have a good time. (For the canoeing in the first half, it's better to have one strong person paddling for two.)
The second half at Yubu Island was a lovely place, and I wished we could have spent more time there, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit (I understand the time constraints).
Thank you!
まず、ガイドの男性の方が非常に楽しい方で、観光客で忙しい時期にも関わらず、しっかりとガイドしてくれてうれしかったです。
前半のカヌー→ピナイサーラの滝までのトレッキングは、最初はカヌーの操作に苦戦しましたが、だんだん慣れてくると楽しくてもっと乗っていたかったです。ピナイサーラの滝も思いのほか迫力があって、滝の下で食べるおにぎりも美味しかったです。ガイドさんのおかげで運動が得意ではない妻も楽しむことができました。体力的にも小さいお子さんも参加されていたので、なにか身体的な障害がない限りは楽しめるのではないかと思います。
(前半のカヌーは体力ある人が1人ついて2人乗りで漕いだほうがいいです)
後半の由布島も素敵な島で、もっとゆっくりできればよかったなと思いましたが、それでもかなり楽しめました(時間的には仕方ないと思います)

It was our first time on Iriomote Island with our family of five (with a 9th grader, a 7th grader, and a 4th grader). I was a bit nervous about what to expect, but both the trekking and canoeing were just right for beginners, and we all had a great time. They provided us with hats, bags that could get dirty, and waterproof bags, which was very helpful for our family, as we were all beginners.
We swam in the waterfall pool, and the kids wanted to wear goggles (I think I'll bring goggles next time). Additionally, we received photos via LINE at the end, which became wonderful memories. We were also able to rent a shower and bath towels for an extra fee, so we could clean up before heading back to port.
We're already talking about wanting to go again on our next trip! Thank you for everything!!

Kayaking was relaxing and enjoyable even for beginners. The walk to the waterfall included explanations about various plants and creatures, allowing us to fully appreciate the island's nature. I don't think I could have gotten so close to the waterfall or had the experience of swimming in the plunge pool anywhere else, so I'm glad I participated. We walked quite a bit, so I honestly thought I wouldn't be able to handle the cave exploration afterward, but it turned out to be incredibly fun. The cave isn't very long, but the narrowness, darkness, and the stunning views once we emerged were all condensed into a short time, making it an amazing experience. It was suitable even for a third-grade girl, so I highly recommend trying this extraordinary experience. Wearing a rash guard to cover your feet can help protect against injuries, making it easier to walk.
カヤックはのんびりと初心者でも楽しめました。
滝までの道のりも色々な植物や生物などの説明を挟みつつ歩いてくれたので島の自然を思い切り堪能できたと思います。あんなに滝の近くまでいき、また滝つぼで泳ぐ体験はできないと思いますので参加してよかったです。結構歩いたのでこの後に洞窟探検は正直もう無理と思っていたのですが、行ってみるとこれもまたすごく楽しく洞窟はそんなに長くないのですが狭さや暗さ抜けたところの景色の素晴らしさなど短い時間に凝縮されていて最高にいい体験ができました。
小学3年の女の子でも十分に行けるものでしたので非日常的な体験、ぜひしてみてください。
足を覆うラッシュガードがあると傷から守れるので歩きやすいかとおもいます。

I was guided by the veteran Iwamoto, who has been in this field for 30 years, to the mouth of the Urauchi River by canoe. The sunset viewed from the water was absolutely stunning. After seeing a sky full of stars, we entered a mysterious narrow stream. In the darkness, I saw bats flying in front of me, heard the sounds of fish jumping, the rustling of something stepping on fallen leaves, and the hooting of an owl—everything felt eerie and mystical (there's no way I would have gone without Iwamoto). By the time we returned to the mouth of the river, it was completely dark. In that setting, as I dipped the paddle into the water to head back to the starting point, countless glow-in-the-dark insects lit up, which was also very mystical. I’ve done various activities like daytime mangrove kayaking and night jungle tours, but this was the best optional tour. Next time I come, I definitely want to do this with my kids as well!
この道30年のベテラン岩本さんに案内して頂き、カヌーで浦内川河口付近へ。水上から見るサンセットは最高でした。満点の星を見た後は、怪しげな細い流域に入ります。暗闇の中、目の前をコウモリが飛んだと思えば、あちこちで魚が跳ねる音、何かが落ち葉を踏む音、ミミズクの鳴き声、全てが不気味&神秘的です(岩本さん無しで行く気には到底なりません)。河口に戻ってくる頃には完全に暗闇です。そんな中で、スタート地点に戻ろうと水面にパドルを差し込むと、無数の夜行虫が光って、これもまたとても神秘的です。昼間のマングローブカヤック、歩きでのナイトジャングルツアーなど、色々やりましたが、オプショナルツアーとしてはこれが最高でした。次回来たら、今度は子供も入れて必ずやりたいと思います!
Thank you for participating in the Mangrove Night Kayak Tour. We look forward to seeing you again if the opportunity arises. Thank you!
この度は、マングローブナイトカヤックツアーに参加頂きありがとうございました。また機会があればよろしくお願いいたします。ありがとうございました。

This was my family's first trip to Iriomote Island. I thought we might get tired in the morning and afternoon, but that wasn't the case at all; we had a great time. Our guide, Mr. Iizuka, was attentive to safety and time while introducing us to the many charms of Iriomote Island, making for a very fulfilling experience. I hope to join another tour in the future.
家族ではじめての西表島。午前と午後は疲れるかな〜と思っていましたが、そんな事はなくとても楽しめました。
ガイドのイイヅカさんは、安全や時間に気を配りながらも、西表島の魅力をたくさん紹介してくれて、とても充実した時間を持てました。
また別なツアーで参加したいなあ。と思っています。

I traveled from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island and stayed at a glamping facility. The next day, although I had no plans, I decided to look for activities I could join, and I found this canyoning tour that was available for booking, so I reserved it immediately! (There was a campaign where if I wrote a review later, I would get a cash back for one person!)
I was picked up at the port along with other guests and we headed to the river by car. There were guests who had been participating since the morning, creating a friendly atmosphere. It was fun to hear about the creatures that inhabit Iriomote Island during the ride!
I was a bit anxious since it was my first canyoning experience, but physically, I had no problems at all! We went through some tricky spots, but I felt that as long as I followed the advice given, there was hardly any danger. There were places where you could jump in and areas where you could slide like a waterslide, which was a bit scary but turned out to be a great experience! (If you're scared, it's okay not to do it!)
They provided helmets and shoes, so I really could go hands-free!
I had a waterproof case, but I was worried, so I left my phone (camera) in the car. Some people brought GoPros, but the staff took photos at various points and sent them to us! (I wish they had taken some pictures of the scenery too.)
Since it was a river, it didn't feel sticky like swimming at the beach, and I was glad that I could use the shower at the office on the way back, so I felt refreshed before boarding the ferry!
I decided to join at the last minute, but I'm really glad I did!
石垣島から西表島に渡り、グランピング施設に宿泊、翌日はノープランだったのですが、せっかくならと翌日参加できるアクティビティを夜な夜な探したところ、こちらのキャニオニングツアーが予約可能だったので即予約!(後日体験談を書けば、1人分キャッシュバックされるキャンペーン中でした!)
他のお客さんと一緒に港でピックアップしてもらい、車で川へ向かいました。午前中から参加しているお客さんもいて、和気あいあいとした雰囲気でした。車内では西表島に生息する生き物の話などもしてもらえて楽しかったです!
初めてのキャニオニングで少し不安もありましたが、体力的には全く問題なかったです!足場の悪いところをいきますが、アドバイスされたとおりに進めば危険もほとんど無いと思いました。
飛び込みできる場所があったり、スライダーのように滑れる場所があったり、ちょっと怖かったですが良い経験になりました!(怖い人はやらなくても大丈夫でした!)
ヘルメットもシューズも貸してもらえるので、ほんとに手ぶらで大丈夫でした!
防水ケースは持っていましたが心配だったので携帯(カメラ)は車に置いていきました。
ゴープロを持って来ている方もいましたが、スタッフさんがポイントポイントでは撮って送ってくれます!(景色なども撮ってほしかったなー)
川なのでビーチで泳ぐのとは違いベタつかず、帰りに事務所でシャワーを使うことができたので、スッキリして帰りのフェリーに乗れてよかったです!
直前で参加を決めましたが、参加できてよかったです!

The mangrove kayaking, trekking to Pinai Sara Falls, diving at the waterfall basin, and lunch were all fantastic. The guide provided local information at various points along the course and gave thorough lectures on important points to be cautious about during the trekking. I was able to spend invaluable time experiencing the nature of Iriomote Island. Thank you very much! ☆
マングローブのカヤック、ピナイサーラの滝へのトレッキング、滝壺でのダイブ・昼食が最高でした。
ガイドの方もコースの時々に応じて地元の情報を教えていただき、トレッキングでは気をつけないといけないポイントは丁寧にレクチャーいただき、西表島の自然に触れる何にも替えがたい大切な時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
ありがとうございました☆

I participated in a one-day snorkeling tour to Balas Island and Hatoma Island. The sea was incredibly beautiful, and I highly recommend it to anyone considering it. Unfortunately, we couldn't access Hatoma Island due to COVID, but the harbor was already a lovely spot. The lunch bento was amazing, with perfectly seasoned rice balls! It was a small group tour with a wonderful guide captain. I would love to join again!!
*Make sure to use the restroom beforehand!! Or a portable toilet is a must!*
バラス島と鳩間島の一日シュノーケルツアーに参加しました。海がとにかく美しくて、検討している方はぜひ行ってほしい。残念ながら、鳩間島はコロナのため立ち入りできなかったのですが船着場がすでに素敵な島でした。お昼のお弁当は、めちゃくちゃちょうどいい塩加減のおにぎりで最高でした!素敵なガイドの船長と少人数のでのツアーでした。また参加したいです!!
※トイレは事前に済ませておきましょう!!もしくはポータブルトイレ必須です!

I used this service for the first time.
We went to Yufu Island by water buffalo, and in the afternoon, we did mangrove kayaking and trekking to Pinai Sara Falls.
For lunch, we had handmade, heartfelt rice ball bento, which was incredibly delicious (laughs).
The guide was truly knowledgeable and shared various stories about the flora and fauna of the Yaeyama Islands during the trek.
I really felt that they love the Yaeyama region and their work.
The lecture was also wonderful, and I was able to paddle smoothly in the kayak for the first time.
At Pinai Sara Falls, they took many photos for us and even provided warm drinks, making it a very attentive experience.
It was a very heartwarming tour (even though the temperature was scorching, haha). I would definitely like to sign up again if I have the chance!
Thank you!
初めて利用させて頂きました。
水牛で由布島→午後はマングローブカヤックとピナイサーラの滝までトレッキングです。
お昼は手作りの心籠ったおにぎり弁当で、これがやたら美味しかったです(笑)
ガイドさんは本当に知識豊富で、トレッキング最中にもいろいろと八重山に関する動植物の話をしてくれました。
本当に八重山郡と仕事が好きなんだなぁと感じました。
レクチャーも素晴らしく、初めて乗ったカヤックもスムーズに漕ぐことができました。
ピナイサーラの滝ではたくさん写真を撮っていただき、温かい飲み物までだしてくれて、至れり尽くせりです。
とても心温まる(気温は灼熱ですが笑)ツアーでした。また機会があったらぜひ申し込みたいです!
ありがとうございます!
