All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

It was my first time on Iriomote Island, and I was quite lost, but I signed up for this tour and it was great. I was very satisfied as I could experience everything efficiently. There were times when it rained, but it didn't bother me, and I had fun. I recommend this tour as it allows you to experience the beauty of Iriomote Island's nature.

初めての西表島だったので迷いに迷い、このツアーを申し込みましたが、とても良かったです。効率よく体験出来て大満足でした。雨が降っている時間もありましたが、そんな事は気にならず楽しめました。西表島の自然が好きになる体験ができるのでオススメです 。

I challenged myself to a solo canoe ride, and afterwards, I trekked through the jungle aiming for the Piñal Sara Falls! The dive into the pool after sweating was so refreshing. The guide also shared information about various plants and creatures, making it a fun tour! I heard there was a snorkeling tour in the afternoon, so I’d love to try that next time too!

カヌーは1人乗りに挑戦し、そのあとジャングルの中トレッキングしてピナイサーラの滝を目指しました！
汗かいたあとの滝壺ダイブは気持ちよかった〜
色々植物や生き物のガイドもしてくださり、楽しいツアーでした！
午後にシュノーケルのツアーもあったみたいなので、次回はそちらも体験してみたいです！！

It had been about 10 years since I participated in the Pinai Sawa Falls tour, and I had a great time. The tour members were quite a lively bunch, but the guide was calm and attentive, which made me feel at ease.

As expected, the view from the top of the falls was amazing, but looking down always makes my legs feel weak... (laughs)

I truly felt that the experience in that space can only be had in Iriomote Island, and I would love to go again. I also hope to join other tours if I have the stamina... (laughs)

10年ぶりぐらいのピナイサーラの滝ツアーの参加でしたが、楽しく過ごすことができました。
ツアーメンバーがなかなかのてんやわんやの人たちが多かったのですが、
ガイドさんも落ち着いて丁寧に対応していたので、こちらも安心でした。
やはり、滝の上からの景色は最高でしたが、覗き込むのは毎回足がすくむというか…(笑)

あの空間の体験は西表島でしかできないと改めて感じたところですが、
また行ってみたいと思いますし、他のツアーにも参加できればと思います！
(体力が持つかどうか…笑)

The tour guide did an excellent job guiding us. When my partner was struggling with how to paddle the canoe, the guide helped by pulling us along with a rope and made sure to communicate effectively, which was very helpful. Being over sixty, I found canoeing in the summer heat quite challenging, and the subsequent trekking involved some steep paths, so even the half-day course required a fair amount of stamina. However, the stunning views we reached were truly moving, and jumping into the cool waters of the waterfall felt exceptional after the heat. The guide also took many photos for us and pointed out great spots for Instagram, resulting in some wonderful pictures that I wanted to post. Additionally, the rice balls we had for lunch were made with local rice and were very tasty. This was my second time at Pinaisara, while it was my partner's first, and it turned out to be a wonderful memory. Although it was a bit tough on a hot day, I’m glad we participated.

ツアーガイドさんはそつなく上手にガイドしてくださいました。相方がカヌーの漕ぎ方に戸惑っていたところ、紐でつないでひっぱって進んでくださったり、きちんと目配せもしてくださって助かりました。自分が還暦越えの年齢だというのもありますが、夏の暑さの中でのカヌー漕ぎはそれなりに大変ですし、その後のトレッキングもけっこう険しい道を進むので、半日コースでもそれなりに体力を使います。そうしてたどり着いた先の景色のよさには感動ひとしおですし、火照った体で飛び込む滝壺の気持ちよさも格別でした。ガイドさんには写真もたくさんとっていただいて、インスタ映えするポイントなんかも教えていただき、投稿に使いたくなる上手な写真が多かったのもよかったです。あと、昼食でいただいたおにぎりも地元のお米ということで、とてもよいお味でした。自分は2回目のピナイサーラ、相方は初めてでしたが、とてもいい思い出になり、暑い日で少し大変でしたが、参加してよかったと思いました。

I went on a family trip with my parents. It had been a while since I traveled with them since becoming a working adult, and we created the best memories together on Iriomote Island, making it a fulfilling day!

In the morning, we fully absorbed the power of nature through a mangrove tour and trekking! In the afternoon, during the transfer to Yubu Island, we had many enjoyable conversations, making it a fun tour.

The staff were young and full of energy, and their excellent service contributed to a really enjoyable experience. I felt that Iriomote Island still has so much charm, and I definitely want to come back again. Thank you very much!

両親と家族旅行で行かせて頂きました。社会人になってからなかなか両親と行けなかった旅行で西表島で
家族で、最高の思い出を作らせて頂き、充実した一日になりました！
午前はマングローブツアーとトレッキングで自然の力を存分に吸収することができました！
午後は由布島へ送迎時にも沢山のお話を聞かせて貰い、楽しいツアーになりました。
スタッフのみなさんも若い活気のある感じ、エネルギーを貰いながら、対応も凄くよく楽しいツアーになりました。
西表島にまた来たいとまだまだ魅力がある島だと思えました。必ずまた来させて頂きます。
ありがとうございました

I participated in a tour because I wanted to see the Pinaisara Falls on my first solo trip. To sum it up, I enjoyed it more than I had imagined! The guide, Mr. Hoshi, was very attentive to each participant, so I never felt uncomfortable being alone. The photos were beautifully taken, making for wonderful memories. When I go to Iriomote Island again, I will ask Mr. Kazaguruma to guide me!

初めての一人旅でピナイサーラの滝が見たいという思いでツアーに参加しました。
結論から言うと想像以上に楽しめました！
今回ガイドしていただいた星さんはツアー客1人1人に配慮を徹底しており、1人の参加で苦になることがありませんでした。
写真も綺麗に撮影していただき最高の思い出になりました。
また、西表島に行くときは風車さんに案内してもらいます！

The mangrove cruise was a highly satisfying tour that allowed me to fully enjoy the atmosphere of Iriomote Island. Although I participated alone, the guide and other participants were very friendly and engaged with me, making it a lot of fun. I heard that SUP can be difficult for beginners, so I chose to go with a canoe, but it looked like everyone was able to stand and paddle by the end, so I want to challenge myself with SUP next time.

In the afternoon, those who stayed on Iriomote Island experienced clear skies, but it was pouring rain on Yubu Island due to a squall. It was a great experience, characteristic of a region where the weather can change rapidly.

マングローブクルーズは西表島の雰囲気を堪能出来る大満足のツアーでした。
一人参加でしたがガイドさんや他の参加者さんも色々と声を掛けてくださりとても楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。
初心者だとSUPは難しいと聞いてカヌーにしましたが、SUPも皆さん最後には立って漕げるようになっていて楽しそうだったので次はSUPに挑戦したいと思います。

午後そのまま西表島にいた方達は快晴だったそうですが、由布島はスコール？でどしゃ降りでした。笑
それも天気の変わりやすい地域ならではで良い体験になりました。

I experienced snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It was my first time, but thanks to the exciting talks and reassuring support, I had a very enjoyable day. I was happy to feel the great nature of Iriomote Island. Thank you very much. I would love to join the tour again and fully enjoy Iriomote Island!

シュノーケリングとsupを体験しました。初めての体験でしたがワクワクするようなトークと安心できるサポートのおかげでとても楽しい一日でした。西表島の大自然を感じることができて嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。また、ツアー参加して西表島を堪能したいです！

They also provided advice on seasickness and motion sickness from snorkeling, and they subtly checked on my condition, which made me feel very reassured about participating. The sea was very calm and beautiful, so I was able to enjoy myself without any worries.

They recommended some great restaurants and bento shops, and their explanations were clear and thorough. After our lunch break, I chatted with other participants about what we had eaten, creating a very friendly atmosphere in the group.

For the canoe or SUP and mangrove tour experience in the afternoon, I think it’s best to wear clothes that you don’t mind getting wet. The final activity was an exceptionally pleasant experience. Since there was also a trekking element, I was able to connect with the nature of Iriomote Island, and thanks to our knowledgeable guide, I really grew to love the island.

The guides from pipi were mostly young, but I felt that each one of them had a pleasant demeanor and was very trustworthy.

Thank you to Yuuma and everyone at pipi for a wonderful time.

They also took plenty of photos of each participant group during the tour (the camera angles were fantastic), allowing us to focus on having fun.

*For those going to the mangroves, it might be better to avoid sleeveless tops and having insect repellent spray could be helpful. I got bitten by mosquitoes ten times on one arm alone!

船酔いやシュノーケルの波酔いの相談も受けてくれて、さり気なく体調を気にかけて頂き、とても安心して参加できました。
とても穏やかで綺麗な海だったので、心配もどこ吹く風で楽しく過ごせました。

おすすめの定食屋さんやお弁当屋さんも教えてくださり、わかりやすく丁寧で。お昼休憩の後にグループが一緒になった参加者の方と、何を食べたかの話をしたりと、とても和やかな雰囲気のグループとなりました。

午後からのカヌーorSUP、マングローブツアー体験は是非濡れても良い格好で参加されると良いと思います。
最後のお楽しみは格別に気持ちの良い体験となります◎
トレッキングの要素も含まれていたので、西表島の自然に触れ合うことができ、知識の豊富なガイドさんのおかげで島のことがとっても好きになりました。

pipiさんのガイドの方は若い方が多く見られましたが、どの人も気持ちの良い雰囲気でしっかりと信頼のおける方達だと感じました。

担当のユウマさんはじめ、pipiの皆様。楽しい時間をありがとうございます。

ツアー中の写真も各参加グループごとにたくさん撮ってくれるので(カメラアングルも素晴らしい)集中して遊べます♪

※マングローブに行く方は、ノースリーブは控えて、虫除けスプレーがあると良いかもしれません。片腕だけで10ヶ所しっかりと蚊に食われました笑

It was my first time on Iriomote Island! I was able to do everything I wanted in one day on the Mangrove Barasu Island course✨ The explanations about the island and the plants were fascinating, and the guides were very kind, making it a fun experience♪

初めての西表島でした！
マングローブ・バラス島のコースで、1日でやりたかったことができました✨
島や植物の説明なども興味深く、ガイドさんたちもとっても親切で楽しむことができました♪

I had some anxiety about my first visit to Iriomote Island, but after making a reservation, they suggested even better plans, which was very helpful! The trekking path was tough, but I was moved by the sight of the waterfall afterward and felt rejuvenated by the delicious lunch! Thank you so much! There are still many places I want to visit on Iriomote Island, so I would like to ask for your help again.

初めての西表島で不安もありましたが、一度予約した後もより良いプランを提案してくださり、とても助かりました！
また、トレッキングの道は険しかったですが、その後滝を見れた感動と、美味しいランチで癒されました！！本当にありがとうございます！
まだまだ西表島では行きたいところがたくさんあるので、またお願いしたいです。

We aimed for the Pinai Falls while being introduced to various plants and creatures on Iriomote Island by our guide, Mr. Otani.

At the top of the falls and at the base, we enjoyed handmade Yaeyama soba and mochi. It was very delicious!! We were also very satisfied with the many photos taken! The two assistants helped with the preparations and accompanied us, which was a great help.

In the future, I would definitely like to introduce Kazaguruma. Thank you for a fun day!

ガイドの大谷さんに西表島のいろいろな
植物や生き物を紹介していただきながら、
ピナイサーラの滝を目指しました。

滝上や、滝壺では手作りの八重山そばと
ムーチーを頂きました。とても美味しかったです!!
お写真もたくさん撮っていただいて大満足でした!!
アシスタントのお二人も準備と
一緒に同行してくださり、大変助かりました。

今後はぜひ風車さんを紹介したいと思います。
楽しい1日をありがとうございました。

In the morning, we had a snorkeling experience at Balas Island where we encountered a sea turtle swimming close to us—a truly precious experience! In the afternoon, we canoed through the mangroves and tropical plants, culminating in canyoning at the waterfall. Every moment was extraordinary and unforgettable. Additionally, Kengo's guide about Iriomote Island was very interesting, making the travel time enjoyable. Thanks to this, our long-awaited Iriomote Island tour turned out to be amazing.

午前のバラス島でのシュノーケリングでは、浅瀬でウミガメに遭遇、自分達の近くをウミガメが泳ぐ‼️といった貴重な体験を。午後はマングローブ、南国の植物たちの間をカヌーで進み、ゴールの滝までキャニオニング。どこを切り取っても非日常で忘れられない体験ができました。そのうえケンゴさんの西表島に関するガイドがとても興味深く…移動時間も楽しく過ごせました。おかげさまで念願の西表島ツアーが最高なものとなりました。

I participated in a mangrove kayaking and snorkeling tour at Barasu Island. The day before the tour, I received a confirmation call, and on the day of the tour, they picked me up from my hotel and took me to the port. I met the other participants and our guide, Yoshi, and we started with the mangrove tour. During the bus ride, Yoshi shared a lot of information about Iriomote Island, which made the travel time exciting.

Before the mangrove tour, we received a thorough briefing on how to paddle the kayak, allowing us to enjoy the experience very safely! We were able to feel the negative ions while being surrounded by waterfalls and forests. After a lunch break, we headed to Barasu Island for snorkeling in the afternoon. Here too, Yoshi and the staff provided great support, allowing us to explore the beautiful sea safely and create wonderful summer memories. Additionally, throughout the tour, Yoshi took photos for us, so we could keep tangible memories (he sends them via LINE after the tour). The tour provided value beyond the price, and I was very satisfied with the experience.

マングローブカヤックとバラス島のシュノーケリングツアーに参加しました。
ツアー参加前日に事前の確認電話があり、当日は宿泊ホテルまで迎えに来ていただき港に移動。
一緒にツアーに参加するメンバーと担当のヨシさんと合流し、まずはマングローブツアーへ。
バスの移動中はヨシさんが西表島の情報などを沢山教えていただき、移動時間からワクワクでした。
マングローブツアーに参加前は丁寧にカヤックの漕ぎ方をレクチャーいただき、非常に安全に楽しめました！滝と森林に触れ、マイナスイオンを沢山感じることができました。その後、昼食休憩を取り、午後はバラス島シュノーケリングへ。ここでもヨシさん等スタッフの方々がサポートしてくださったのでとても安全に綺麗な海を散策することができ、良い夏の思い出ができました。また、どのツアー中もヨシさんが写真を撮ってくださるので、形としても思い出に残すことができました。(ツアー後、LINEで送ってくださります)値段以上の価値を提供いただきとても満足のツアーでした。

In the morning, we paddled through the magnificent mangrove nature on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), and in the afternoon, we leisurely crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo cart to see subtropical plants. It was a very fulfilling tour that allowed us to enjoy various aspects of Iriomote Island.

The guide was very kind and provided detailed explanations, which helped us learn a lot about the island. We had a great time. Additionally, it was wonderful to have photos taken that I wouldn't have been able to capture myself.

If I have the opportunity to come to Iriomote Island again, I would like to stay overnight and participate in a night tour as well.

This trip to Ishigaki Island became the best memory. Thank you very much for providing such a fulfilling experience.

午前中はSUPでマングローブの大自然の中を進み、午後はゆったりと水牛車で由布島に渡って亜熱帯植物を見学し、色々な面の西表島を満喫できるとても充実したツアーでした。

ガイドの方にとても親切に説明をしていただけたため、島の詳細な情報等を知ることができ、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
また、自分では撮ることがでないような写真を撮ってもらえたことも良かったです。

次に西表島に来る機会があれば、一泊して、夜のツアーにも参加できればと思います。

石垣島旅行の最高の思い出になりました。
本当に充実した体験をさせていただきありがとうございました。

The staff were very polite, and I was able to participate with peace of mind. I enjoyed listening to various stories about Iriomote Island, and it was a lot of fun! I also got to meet a sea turtle, creating the best memories! I would like to use this service again.

スタッフさんがとても丁寧で、安心して参加することができました。
西表島の色々なお話をお聴きでき、とっても楽しかったです！
ウミガメにも出会えて、最高の思い出ができました！
また利用させていただきたいと思います。

This is a message for Chinese friends who want to participate in the Iriomote Island project but don't know how to choose. Kayaking is completely easy, and even first-timers can pick it up effortlessly. The guide, Taki-san, is very friendly and professional, and his English is quite good, so you don't have to worry about not understanding Japanese affecting your experience. Remember to wear waterproof clothing and pants, and prepare for sun protection and mosquito repellent before climbing. The ascent can be a bit tough, but you can see many interesting small animals along the way. When you reach the top, the beautiful scenery instantly makes all the effort worthwhile. Taki-san also cooked ramen, which was surprisingly delicious! After descending, you still need to walk about 20 minutes to reach the waterfall, where you can swim. By the end of the day, you'll be tired but happy. Overall, this project is highly recommended!

这篇写给想参加西表岛项目游但是又不知道如何选择的中文朋友，皮划艇完全没有难度第一次也可以轻松上手，向导taki桑非常友好专业，英文也很不错不用担心听不懂日文而影响体验，爬山前记得穿好防水衣裤和防晒、驱蚊等准备，上山过程虽然有点幸苦但是能看到很多有趣的小动物,当到达山顶时看到的美景瞬间打消所有劳累，taki桑煮了拉面意外还挺好吃！下山后还需要走20分钟左右到达瀑布在这里可以游泳。一天下来累并快乐，总体是很值得推荐的项目！

I have experienced tours on Iriomote Island about 10 times, and this was the best tour guide! I participated with my 4th-grade son, who loves living creatures but tends to be easily distracted. Last year, my son was constantly being told to pay attention and couldn't enjoy himself at all, so we signed up again this year for a revenge tour. The guide had extensive knowledge and answered my child's questions in an interesting way, which made it truly enjoyable. Thank you for providing our family with such a wonderful experience! We will definitely request you again when we visit next time. Huge thanks!!

西表島で10回ほどツアーを体験しましたが、最高のツアーガイドさんでした！生き物好きで注意散漫な4年生の息子と参加しました。昨年は息子が注意ばかりされ、全く楽しめず、今年はリベンジで申込みました。ガイドさんの知識が豊富で子供の質問に面白くこたえてくださるので心から楽しめました。家族共々最高の体験をさせていただき、ありがとうございました！また伺う時は必ずお願いします。大感謝です！！

It was my first time snorkeling, but thanks to the guide who kindly and thoroughly taught me how to use the fins and the precautions for wearing the goggles, I was able to swim with confidence! The guide was a local who knew a lot about the island and quickly shared the names of the corals and fish that caught my attention. I only needed to bring a towel and drinks, as everything else was available for rent, which made it easy to participate. Additionally, the transportation to and from the hotel was a great bonus. I was finally able to visit Barasu Island, and I got to take many photos, creating wonderful memories. The Yaeyama soba at the cafe of the Iriomote Island Nature School was also exquisite! Thank you for your kindness.

シュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、フィンの使い方やゴーグルの装着時の注意点などガイドさんが優しく丁寧に教えて頂いたおかげで安心して泳げました！
ガイドさんは島のことをよく知る現地の方で、気になった珊瑚や魚の名前などすぐに教えてくださいました。
持ち物もタオルや飲み物のみで、他はレンタルができたので身軽に参加できて、さらにホテルまでの送迎もあったのがよかったです。
念願のバラス島に行けて、写真も沢山撮っていただけていい思い出ができました。
また西表島自然学校のカフェの八重山そばが絶品でした！親切にしていただきありがとうございました。

On the third day of our Ishigaki trip, we had an experience with the Iriomote Nature School. When we saw the destination, the Pinaisara Falls, from the starting point, we were a bit surprised, thinking, "Wait, we have to go all the way there?!" But once we started, it turned out to be quite fun.

We were on a private family tour, but we ended up merging with a group tour along the way. By the time we reached the trekking starting point after getting off the canoe, there were canoes everywhere! It seemed like the people who had already arrived were heading towards the falls, so we got ready to start as well.

After a challenging 15 to 20-minute trek, we finally reached the base of the falls. Seeing the breathtaking view of the waterfall made us forget the fatigue from the sweaty walk, and we dove into the pool below. It was incredibly fun!

We then retraced our steps back and took the canoe to return. Our guide, Mr. Iwamoto, was quite natural and knowledgeable, providing detailed explanations about the mangroves along the way, as well as information about the lizards and flowers we encountered during the trek. It was a fantastic tour.

After returning to the office, we were treated to a complimentary drink of shikuwasa juice or blue Hawaii shaved ice. Since it was around lunchtime, we ordered Yaeyama soba, and the clear soup version of Yaeyama soba here was exquisite! I would love to join this tour again if I have the chance.

石垣旅行の３日目に体験☀️
今回、西表自然学校さんにお世話になりました。
スタート地点から目的のピナイサーラの滝を見たときは、えっ？あそこまで行くの！と少しビックリ‼️
でもスタートするとこれが案外面白い(^-^)
私たちは家族だけのツアーでしたが、途中団体ツアーさんとも合流状態となり、カヌーを降りてトレッキングスタート地点ではもうカヌーだらけ！
到着していた人達はすでに滝に向かってるようで私達もいざスタート！
なかなか険しい道のりを進むこと15分か20分いくと滝壺に到着。滝の絶景を目の当たりにすると、汗だくで歩いてきた疲れも忘れ、滝壺にダイブ
これが最高に楽しかった
またきた道のりを戻り、カヌーに乗って戻るというツアーでした。
担当してくださったイワモトさんも天然そうな人でしたが、とても詳しくガイドをしてくださり、
道中のマングローブの説明、トレッキング途中のトカゲや花などの説明もしっかりしてくださり、とても良いツアーでした。
その後、事務所に戻るとサービスでシークワーサージュースかブルーハワイのかき氷まで頂きました。
ちょっどお昼だったこともあり、こちらではカフェもしておられたので八重山そばを注文しましたが、こちらの透明のスープの八重山そばが絶品‼️
また機会があればツアー参加したいと思います。

I have visited various islands in Okinawa, but this was my first time on Iriomote Island. This time, I participated with my daughter, and it was an extremely satisfying experience! The staff were efficient and pleasant, and I believe everyone had a very high awareness of safety through their excellent schedule management skills and broad perspective. It was a very reassuring tour that maintained a warm and appropriate distance. I definitely want to rely on you again in the future. Thank you very much!

これまで沖縄のいろいろな離島を訪れましたが西表島は初めてでした。今回は娘と2人で参加しましたが、非常に満足度の高い体験でした！スタッフの方々はテキパキとされていて気持ちよく、皆さんスケジュール管理能力と広い視野による安全確保意識が大変高いと思います。節度ある適度な距離感を保ちつつも温もりのある、とても安心感のあるツアーとなりました。また是非お世話になりたいと思います。ありがとうございました！

The Pinay Sara Falls are truly amazing, and the guide was kind, making it an unforgettable trip! I was worried since I brought small children, but there were no problems at all. I would love to participate again if I have the chance!

ピナイサーラの滝は本当にすばらしく、ガイドさんも親切で忘れられない旅になりました！小さい子供を連れていったので心配でしたが、全く問題ありませんでした。また機会があったらぜひ参加したいです！

We participated as a family of three (with a 9-year-old son) and had a truly wonderful time.

I did the "Night Kayak" ten years ago when I visited Iriomote Island, and I couldn't forget the breathtaking starry sky I saw then. I had always wanted to do it again, and this time, I was overjoyed to be able to share it with my grown son.

We set off before it got dark, and it was a luxurious experience to savor the passage of time as each star appeared one by one.

The guide's explanations about the mangroves and constellations were also great.

We were able to enjoy the darkness and tranquility that you can't experience in the city.

The sounds of owls, the shadows of bats flying right in front of us, and the sparkling light of the bioluminescent plankton were all impressive.

家族3人（子供は9歳男子）で参加し、大変すばらしい時間を過ごせました。

「ナイトカヤック」は10年前に西表島に来たときにして、そのときに見た星空の感動が忘れられず、是非またと思っていましたが、今回は大きくなった息子と一緒にできて感無量です。

暗くなる前に出発し、一つ一つ星が現れてくる時間の経過を味わえる贅沢な時間でした。

ガイドさんのマングローブや星座の解説も良かったです。

都会では味わえない暗闇と静けさを堪能できました。

フクロウの鳴き声や目の前を飛ぶ蝙蝠の影、夜光虫のきらきらした光が印象的でした。

I chose the "Canoeing & Trekking + Snorkeling" indulgent course.

Canoeing is a very effective attraction for the trip and enhances the sense of unreality.

The trekking from there was harder than I imagined, but the excitement when I finally reached the Pinai Sara Falls was overwhelming!

This alone was enough to satisfy me, but we also headed out to the sea to land on Baras Island.

I was super impressed by the coral reefs all around and the incredibly beautiful sea!

During snorkeling, I was surrounded by many fish, and surprisingly... three sea turtles also showed up!

We were blessed with great weather, and I enjoyed it to the fullest, saying "I couldn't ask for more!"

It's also a nice service that the guide provided free photos they took!

「カヌー&トレッキング＋シュノーケリング」の欲張りコースを選びました。

カヌー漕ぎは旅のアトラクションとしてとても有効的で非現実感を増強してくれます。

そこからのトレッキングは想像以上にハードでしたが、ピナイサーラの滝ヘたどり着いた時の感動はひとしおです！

これだけで十分に満足デキますが、さらに海へ出てバラス島上陸。

辺り一面の珊瑚礁と、あまりにキレイ過ぎる海に超感激！

シュノーケリングでは沢山のお魚たちに囲まれ、しかも･･･なんとウミガメさんも登場！
(しかも３匹)

お天気にも恵まれ、"もうこれ以上ナイ！"ってぐらい楽しめました！

ガイドさんが撮影してくれた写真も無料で提供してくれるのも嬉しいサービスですネ♪

It was amazing to have various experiences while enjoying the breathtaking views. The instructor's explanations were humorous and very entertaining. I felt safe and was able to enjoy myself without worry.

絶景を見ながら色々な体験ができ、最高でした。インストラクターの方の解説がユーモアがあってとても面白く楽しめました。安全にも配慮されていて安心して楽しめました。

There were 10 people who applied at the same time, but there was only one guide, so we couldn't fit everyone in the car for the round trip to the river at once, resulting in a shuttle transport. Due to the time constraints, the service felt rushed and careless. I was squeezed in the back row of the three-seat bench with a large man who had fallen into the river and was wet, which was uncomfortable. The seat next to the driver was left empty to secure my own space, showing a lack of consideration for the guests. The driving was rough, making it dangerous and unpleasant.

The morning course was advertised as including explanations and rental shoes, but there was no mention of rental shoes, and the explanations about the Nakagawa River were only given to people nearby.

There were some kind aspects, such as taking photos of us while we were kayaking. I think the guide was still young and inexperienced, but since this is a customer service industry, I hope improvements can be made.

同じ時間帯に10人が申込んでいたが、ガイドは1人のため、集合場所から川の往復が車に一度で乗り切れずピストン輸送になり、時間不足で対応も雑な感じだった。3列シートの後ろの列に、川に落ちて濡れている体格の大きな男性と3人でぎゅうぎゅう詰めで載せられ辛かった。運転席の隣は空けて自分のスペースを確保しており、客への配慮が欠けている。車の運転も荒く、危なくて不快。
午前中のコースは解説付きでレンタルシューズ付と書かれていたが、レンタルシューズの話もなく、仲間川の解説も近くの人にしかしていない。
カヤックに乗っている写真を撮ってくれるなど親切な部分もあった。
まだ若いガイドだったので未熟だと思うが、客商売なので改善して貰いたい

After the daytime mangroves and Pinai Sara Falls, we participated in a stargazing session led by a professional, which was breathtaking and created unforgettable memories.

While enjoying the lovely twilight, we headed out for a night canoe trip. Unlike during the day, the calm waves allowed us to move slowly, and as we glided through the mangroves in silence, we experienced nature up close with many bats flying nearby.

As we returned from the mangroves, stars began to appear one by one, and before we knew it, the sky was filled with countless stars. Additionally, bioluminescent plankton started to show up near the canoe, allowing us to enjoy a wonderful night.

We even received lovely souvenirs, making our unforgettable memories of Iriomote Island even more special! I highly recommend this for family trips as well as for couples!

昼のマングローブとピナイサーラの滝に続いて参加。プロが解説する星空は圧巻で、忘れられない思い出でした。
素敵なトワイライト時間を楽しみつつ、ナイトカヌーへ。。。
昼間と違い静かな波のためゆっくりと進むことができ、静寂の中マングローブを進んでいくと近くをたくさんのこうもりが飛んできて自然を体感出来ました。

マングローブから戻るとぽつぽつと星が現れ始め、気付くとあたり一面は満天の星空に。。。そして、カヌーの近くには夜光虫が現れ始め、素敵な夜を過ごすことが出来ました。

素敵なお土産までいただき、忘れられない西表島も思い出になりました！
家族旅行はもちろん、カップルにもお勧めです！

The trekking and canoeing were both authentic experiences, and I had a very fulfilling time. It was my first time, but the thorough explanations made me feel comfortable participating. We were able to take breaks along the way, so I enjoyed listening to the explanations at a relaxed pace.

There were also families with small children, so I can recommend this to a variety of people! You can take a shower, and the attached café looks delicious, so after finishing in the morning, you can have a meal before joining the next activity. It's within walking distance to Uehara Port, so I think you can have a great time even on a day trip!

This was definitely a tour shop I would like to use again.

トレッキングもカヌーも本格的で、とても充実した時間を過ごすことが出来ました。初めてでしたが、丁寧な説明で安心して参加することができました。
途中途中で休憩もはさんでいただけるので、ゆっくり説明を聞きながら楽しめました＾＾
小さなお子様連れの方もいたので、いろいろな方にお勧めできます！
シャワーも浴びれますが、併設のカフェも美味しそうなので、午前中終了後にご飯を食べて次のアクティビティに参加できます。上原港へも歩いていける距離なので、日帰り訪問でも十分楽しめると思います！！
またぜひお願いしたいツアーショップでした。

I created unforgettable memories with beautiful sunsets, canoeing in complete darkness, and seeing creatures and magical scenery that can only be experienced at night!

Thanks to the new moon in midsummer and the favorable weather, it was an experience that exceeded my expectations.

My child is in elementary school, and all three of us were beginners at canoeing, but there was a thorough briefing at the beginning, so we had no problems.

綺麗なサンセットや、真っ暗な中で漕ぐカヌー、夜にしか見られない生き物や幻想的な景色を見られて忘れられない思い出が出来ました！

真夏の新月でお天気に恵まれた事もあり、参加前に期待していた以上の体験でした。

子供は小学生で、親子3人共カヌー初心者でしたが最初に丁寧な講習があり問題ありませんでした。

The snorkeling in the morning, lunch, and the canoeing and trekking course in the afternoon were a great way to enjoy the charms of Iriomote Island in a day!
Entering the sea, paddling the canoe, and walking provided good exercise, and I felt pleasantly tired and had a lot of fun!
The guide was kind, and it was nice to have good communication with the other participants in the tour!
Everyone else was experienced, and we were the only ones in short sleeves and shorts, but I think if you want to avoid sunburn, a rash guard is essential since sunscreen washes off quickly in the sea and sweat!

午前中にシュノーケリング、昼食を取って午後にカヌーとトレッキングのコースは西表島の魅力を日帰りで楽しめるコースでした！
海に入って、カヌーを漕いで、歩いて、いい運動でほどよく疲れてとても楽しかったです！
ガイドのお兄さんも優しく、ツアーに参加してる他の方とも程よくコミュニケーションが取れたのも良かったです！
みなさん慣れている方で、半袖半ズボンは私たちくらいでしたが笑、日焼け止めを塗っても海や汗ですぐ落ちてしまうので日焼けが嫌な方はラッシュガードが必須だと思います！
