We participated in this as a final summer vacation memory with our family: my husband, our daughter (5th grade), and our son (2nd grade). There was another family with us as well. By the end, the kids became good friends and we had an even more enjoyable time!
We traveled from Ishigaki Island to Uehara Port on Iriomote Island to join the tour. It was quite windy and there were sudden rain showers in Ishigaki, but it was sunny once we arrived at Iriomote Island. In the morning, we went snorkeling! The sea was so beautiful that I kept swimming and peeking around. I was thrilled to see a sea turtle! Personally, I found the clownfish hiding in the anemone to be the cutest☆
After snorkeling, we moved to the Iriomote Island Monsoon shop by tour vehicle, which was only about a 5-minute drive from the port. We had time for lunch and changing clothes. In the afternoon, we did kayaking and trekking. The guide was cute, knowledgeable, and made the journey fun. She interacted with my son and daughter cheerfully like a friend, which made my son, who usually dislikes walking, enjoy trekking. It was moving when we finally saw the waterfall! We even encountered a habu snake along the way, which was scary but allowed us to fully enjoy the nature of Okinawa. Once we reached the waterfall, we repeatedly jumped in!
The transition from the morning's sea activities to the afternoon trekking was a bit tiring, but this tour allowed us to fully enjoy Iriomote Island in just one day! It was the best! If we have another family trip, I would love to participate again.
家族で夏休み最後の思い出に参加しました。
夫婦、娘(小5)、息子(小2)
他に一緒の方がもう一家族いました。
最後は子供同士も仲良しになりさらに楽しく過ごせました!
石垣島から西表島の上原港まで移動して参加しました。石垣島は風が強く急な雨がありましたが、西表島に着いてからは晴れていました。
午前中はシュノーケリング!海がきれい過ぎてずっと泳ぎながら覗いていました。海ガメを見ることもできて感動!
個人的にはイソギンチャクに隠れていたカクレクマノミが1番可愛かったです☆
海から上がると、ツアーの車で西表島モンスーンのショップへ移動。港から車で5分ぐらいの近さ。
昼食や着替えタイム。
午後からはカヤックとトレッキング。ガイドのお姉さんが可愛くて、物知りで楽しく移動できました。息子と娘にも友達のように明るく接してくださり、歩くの大嫌いな息子も楽しくトレッキングできました。
滝が見えてきた時は感動です!途中にハブもいて、怖いながらも沖縄の自然を満喫できました。滝に着いてからはジャンプで飛び込むを何度も何度も繰り返していました。
午前中の海から、午後のトレッキングはちょっと疲れましたが西表島を1日で満喫できちゃうこのツアー!最高でした!家族で旅行に行くことがあればまた参加したいです。

I received a phone call about the tour details the day before, which left a good impression. We traveled to Iriomote Island by ferry. There was a pick-up service to Uehara Port, and a cheerful staff member came to greet us. During the tour, they were very kind to us (I will skip the details of the tour). After the tour, there was also a shower available (with rinse, shampoo, and body soap). It was a shop with a strong spirit of service!
ツアー内容について、前日にお電話をいただけるのですが、そこから好印象でした。西表島まではフェリーで行きます。上原港までお迎えがついているので、元気のいいスタッフの方が来てくださりました。
ツアー中も親切にしてもらえました。(ツアーの事は省略します)

I was drawn to the catchphrase "the last hidden gem of Japan," so I decided to go to Iriomote Island! As the name suggests, endless nature spreads out before you, and I was able to fully enjoy mangrove SUP and snorkeling. In particular, Barasu Island felt like a truly mysterious space, and I wanted to float there forever! The service was great too!
私はこの日本最後の秘境というキャッチに惹かれて、西表島に行くことに決めました!

It was a wonderful guiding experience. From the ferry pickup, the energy was high, but the content of the tour surpassed that. Not only was the enthusiasm great, but the amount of knowledge was also abundant, and I enjoyed it throughout. Personally, I was very satisfied with the cave tour. The natural caves of Iriomote Island became completely dark at times, making it a true adventure. They provided detailed explanations about why they have grown so large and the passage of time. I only brought drinks and a towel, but there were no problems at all. Showers are also available for use.
素晴らしいガイディングでした。フェリーのお迎えから元気満点でしたが、ツアー内容はそれを凌駕していました。
元気の良さだけではなく、知識量も豊富で、ずっと楽しめました。個人的には鍾乳洞のツアーが大満足でした。西表島の天然の鍾乳洞は途中真っ暗になったり本当のアドベンチャー。

Iriomote Island was my first visit, and from the moment I got off the ferry, I could feel the island's unique atmosphere, which was very exciting. Truly, it's an island with nothing much in a good way.
The tour I participated in included a mangrove canoe experience, cave exploration, and a landing on Barasu Island. First, we headed to the mangrove river, paddling our canoes toward a waterfall. The creatures and plants visible around us were unique to Iriomote Island, making me feel like I had entered another world. As we continued down the river with its distinctive atmosphere, our guide kept things lively and fun, so I was never bored. At the waterfall, we could even swim a little in the pool at the base.
In the cave, we wore helmets and literally "explored" through the dark cave. The ceiling was low, and at one point, I lightly bumped my head on a rock, which made me realize the importance of the helmet. This was also a unique experience with a fascinating atmosphere. The final landing on Barasu Island was blessed with good weather, allowing me to feel a stylish side of Iriomote Island that was different from the mangroves and caves.
Actually, it was my first time on a boat, but I was able to enjoy it without any issues. The breathtaking view of the sea spreading out in 360 degrees is something I highly recommend. Throughout the day, I was able to take many photos, and they sent me the data afterward, which made it very convenient. Thank you very much. I would love to come back again.
西表島は初めてだったのですが、フェリーから降りた瞬間から島の独特の雰囲気が感じられてとてもワクワクしました。本当に、良い意味で、何もない島です。
参加したツアーはマングローブのカヌー体験、鍾乳洞の探検、バラス島の上陸体験がセットになったプランです。まずはマングローブの川に向かい、カヌーで滝を目指して進んで漕いで行きます。視界に入る生き物や植物が西表島ならではで、異世界に入り込んだような気分でした。そんな独特の雰囲気の川を進み続けるのですが、ガイドさんが楽しく盛り上げてもくれるので、全く飽きませんでした。ゴールの滝では滝つぼのところで少し泳いだりもできます。鍾乳洞はヘルメットをかぶり、時には真っ暗な洞窟の中を文字通り「探検」しました。天井が低いので、途中で頭を岩に軽くぶつけてしまい、ヘルメットの意味がその時わかりました。こちらも独特の空気感でおもしろい体験でした。最後のバラス島上陸は天気にも恵まれ、マングローブや鍾乳洞とはまた一味違うオシャレな西表島を感じました。実はボートに乗ること自体が初めてだったのですが、問題なく楽しく乗ることができました。360度見渡して海が広がっている絶景は是非おすすめしたいです。一日の体験を通して写真はたくさん撮ってもらい、そのデータを送って頂けるので楽チンでした。どうもありがとうございました。また来たいと思いました。

I thought the half-day course would be too short, but I was completely satisfied and was able to immerse myself in nature like never before. The wide sky and mangrove forest seen from the canoe, along with the occasional fish, were incredibly soothing. The trekking was more intense than I expected, and the refreshing coldness of the water when I jumped into the waterfall felt great. Our guide, Eri, explained the surrounding plants and insects, which helped me connect even more with Iriomote Island. The tour had a small group, which made it safe and allowed us to go at our own pace, which was wonderful. This trip became my favorite memory of the five days. I want to go canoeing in Iriomote Island again next time. Thank you!
半日コースで短いかなと思っていましたが、大満足でいつもは体験出来ない自然にどっぷりひたる事が出来ました。カヌーからみる広い空とマングローブの林とたまに見る魚はとっても癒されました。トレッキングは思っていた以上に本格的で、滝に飛び込んだ水の冷たさが気持ち良かったです。ガイドのエリさんが周りの植物や昆虫の説明をしてくれて更に西表島に親しめました。ツアーも少人数で危険もなく自分たちのペースで行けて良かったです。今回の旅行5日間で一番楽しかった思い出になりました。又次回も西表島カヌーに行きたいと思ってます。ありがとうございました!

First of all, it was fun‼️
The access points for SUP and the limestone caves are in the jungle by the roadside, which really gets your excitement up.

It might have been a little mishap, but we were able to feel the nature around us. The guide was polite, took a lot of photos, and was skilled, so thank you very much!

It was refreshing to explore in the darkness while listening to the sounds of water and the chirping of birds!

On the day of the visit, it rained, and I thought I was unlucky, but the mangroves were less affected by the rain, and the atmosphere in the limestone cave was different from a sunny day, allowing me to experience Iriomote Island in a unique way. Since I was already wet from the rain, I tried standing under the waterfall and swimming in the pool below it—activities I might not have done if it had been sunny. I'm glad I got to have fun doing those things.
当日は雨が降ってしまい、運がなかったのかなと思いましたがマングローブの中は雨の影響が少なくて、鍾乳洞も雰囲気が出ていて晴れの日とは違った西表島を体験できました。
どうせ雨に濡れているからと滝に打たれてみたり、滝つぼで泳いでみたり晴れてたらやらなかったかもしれないことをして遊べて良かったです。

I visited Iriomote Island for the first time and didn't have much knowledge about it, only knowing that the water buffalo carts are famous. When I asked the hotel staff, they recommended an eco-tour with kayaking and a visit to Barasu Island, which I participated in. It was my first time on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), and I found it interesting that I could sit or stand freely, unlike in a canoe. Barasu Island was even more beautiful than in the pictures, with calm waves that felt great, so I thought I would like to come back someday.

It was my first time on a remote island, and I was surprised by how different the natural scenery was from Okinawa Main Island. First of all, the abundance of mangroves and the beautiful blue of the sea left a strong impression on me. I had no issues with canoeing since I had done it before when I visited Okinawa Main Island, so I was able to fully enjoy nature from start to finish. I think it's easy enough for beginners as well. In contrast to the whiteness of Barasu Island, the limestone caves are located in the forest, allowing for a great combination of both land and sea nature.
離島は初めてでしたが、沖縄本島とは自然の印象が全く違い驚きました。
まずマングローブの豊富さ、海の青さが美しくてとても印象に残りました。

I stayed at a hotel far from the port without any local knowledge, but despite the early hour, they came to pick me up with a smile. They provided careful instruction during the canoeing, and although I was anxious since it was my first time, it turned out to be a very fulfilling cruising experience. The limestone caves were left in their natural state, making them incredibly mystical, especially the areas where sunlight shone through, which were particularly beautiful! During the tour of Balas Island, I learned about why Balas Island exists and information about the surrounding islands, and they took many photos for me. I hope to visit again.
土地勘がなく、港から遠いホテルに宿泊してしまったのですが、朝早くにもかかわらず迎えに来てくださり、笑顔で出迎えてくれました。
カヌーでは丁寧に教えていただき、初めてで不安だったのですが、すごく充実したクルージングになりました。鍾乳洞は手つかずの自然のままになっていたので、すごく神秘的で日が差しているところなど特に綺麗!
バラス島の上陸ツアーではバラス島ができる理由や周辺の島のことも教えていただきましたし、写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。また訪れた時はお願いします。

The young male guide had a dazzling smile, and our trip was very pleasant throughout the day. The nature of Iriomote Island was exceptional, and it left me with the impression that it’s a perfect island for activities. The weather wasn't great due to the typhoon approaching, so we couldn't go on the sea tour, but they kindly suggested an alternative tour, which turned out to be enjoyable! My wife and I are talking about coming back once we have children.
若い男性のガイドさんは笑顔が眩しく、私達の旅行も1日を通して、とても気分の良いものになりました。
西表島の自然は格別で、アクティビティをするのにもってこいの島という印象でした。
台風前で天候がイマイチだったので、海のツアーはダメでしたが、親切にも代替のツアーも提案してもらえたので、結果オーライで楽しめました!
子供が産まれたら、また来ようねと妻と話しています。

At first, I thought it was a bit expensive, but I made a reservation based on the good reviews. The guide was kind and provided detailed explanations, and before I knew it, time flew by, and I found myself sleeping on the return ferry (laughs). Iriomote Island is a place I want to visit again. I think this is a recommended plan for those who don't want to make mistakes while traveling.
最初はちょっと高いな…と思いながら、評判の良い口コミを参考にして予約しました。
ガイドさんも親切で解説もきめ細かく、時間があっという間に過ぎ、気づけば帰りのフェリーで寝ていました(笑)
西表島はまた来たくなる島でした。
旅行先で失敗したくない人はお勧めのプランだと思います。

Iriomote Island was more of a jungle than I had imagined, and every tour I participated in was an extraordinary experience. The mangroves, limestone caves, and Barasu Island offered experiences I had never had before, and I was very satisfied. Thank you very much to the male staff member who guided us all day. I also appreciate all the photos you took.
西表島は想像してたよりジャングルで、今回参加させてもらったどのツアーも非日常を楽しめるツアー内容でした。
マングローブ、鍾乳洞、バラス島と、どれも今まで体験したことのない体験ができて大満足です。
一日中ガイドして下さった男性スタッフの方、本当にありがとうございました。
たくさんの写真もありがとうございました。
