Since I boarded first, I asked the captain and guide which side would be better to sit on, and they said, "Both sides are the same. We'll turn around on the way back. It might be better to sit on the left side, which won't be in the sun until we depart." So, I sat on the left. On the way there, they provided a detailed explanation while getting close to the mangroves on the right side, but on the way back, perhaps due to the tide, we just returned down the middle. I can only say it's disappointing that I couldn't see up close while listening to the explanations. Shouldn't we also get close on the left side, as mentioned in the initial announcement?
1番に乗り込んだので、船頭兼ガイドさんに座る席は右か左どちらが良いか聞いたら、「どちらも同じ。帰りは折り返すので。出航まで日の当たらない左が良いのでは?」と言われて左に座った。往き、右側をマングローブに近寄りながら丁寧に説明していらっしゃったが、帰りは潮の加減か、真ん中をただ帰るだけだった。説明を聴きながら近くで見ることができず、残念というしかない。最初のアナウンス通り、同じように左も近寄るべきではないですか?

This time, on August 22, my spouse and I were taken care of by Monsoon!
They were very kind, and from the detailed explanations to the consideration for the participants, I really felt it was worth coming.
I especially appreciate Y, who was in charge.
We had a lot of fun with the many photos, lunch, and guidance!
Next time we come to Iriomote Island, we definitely look forward to it!
今回は、8月22日に夫婦2人で、モンスーンさんにお世話になりました!

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 made great memories on my first visit to Iriomote Island!
朝からバラス島シュノーケリング。
お昼からはマングローブsup。
一日コースでしたが楽しくあっという間に終わりました。
案内してくれたのはガッキーさん。
パワフルな彼女の案内ははやすぎず暇すぎず丁度良いスピードでした!
お陰様で海もマングローブも色んな事を終始お話ししてもらえてめっちゃくちゃ楽しい1日でした!
初めての西表島にいい思い出ができました!

Iriomote Island: It seems that 90% of the island is a protected area, truly giving it a jungle feel. The mangroves were quite impressive!
Yubu Island: The water buffalo carts are a must-see! The buffalo driver plays Okinawan songs on the sanshin.
Taketomi Island: The sea was incredibly beautiful! I think the combination of the sandy beach and the emerald green sea is among the best in the outlying islands. Riding a bicycle in the midsummer heat can be a bit tough, though... haha.
There are repeated transfers by boat and bus, which can be quite strenuous. Be careful of motion sickness. However, this tour is perfect for efficiently exploring three completely different islands and finding your favorite one!
西表島 島の9割が保護区域だそうで、まさにジャングルという感じ。マングローブにはかなりの迫力がありました!
由布島 なんといっても水牛車!牛者さん?が三線で沖縄の歌を演奏してくれます。
竹富島 海がとっても綺麗でした!砂浜とエメラルドグリーンの海の綺麗さが離島の中でもトップクラスだと思います。真夏の自転車が少しきついですが…笑
船やバスでの移動が繰り返しあり、かなりハードではあります。乗り物酔い注意です。ですが、全く違う三島が効率よく回れ、お気に入りの島を見つけるにはもってこい!のツアーです。

When I was abroad, I often got to see coconut crabs, but I was actually surprised to see such large coconut crabs here as well. It felt just like being overseas... (laughs) Jungle exploration is great, but for me, the starry sky was truly moving. The guide was someone who understood how to enjoy the experience from the customer's perspective, going beyond just being a regular guide. They not only showed us how to look at the sky but also taught us about the positions of the constellations and even how to take photos of the starry sky with an iPhone. I was impressed by their high level of hospitality. Thank you for everything!
海外にいた頃はよくヤシガニ観れてましたが、ここでも大きなヤシガニを見ることが出来、実は驚いてました。まるで、海外みたいだなと…(笑)ジャングル探検も良いですが、私には満点の星空がとても感動的でした。普通のガイドさん以上に、顧客目線での楽しみ方を心得てる方がガイドさんでしたので、単に空を眺めることだけではなく、星座の位置や、iPhone でも星空の撮影方法まで教えてくださり、ホスピタリティ度が高いなと感心です。色々ありがとうございました!

I participated in the tour because I wanted to explore other islands before going to Kohama Island the day after tomorrow. This tour is packed with highlights from each island.
The mangrove cruising in Iriomote was limited due to water depth, but I enjoyed the tropical plants. Riding the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island was a long-time dream come true for me. It felt completely different from the mainland, almost like being overseas. Yubu Island is a tropical botanical garden, so I got to see beautiful flowers. The gelato I had there was the best.
On Taketomi Island, I rented a bicycle and went cycling. I swam at a very beautiful beach and then returned. There are free changing rooms and showers, so if you love swimming, definitely bring your swimsuit!
I still have more to say, but thank you for such a fulfilling and enjoyable time.
小浜島には翌々日に行くので、それ以外を周りたいと思い参加しました。それぞれの島の見どころがギューっと詰まったツアーです。
西表のマングローブクルージングは水深の関係で奥まで行けませんでしたが、南国の植物を楽しめました。由布島の水牛車は昔から乗ってみたくて念願の初体験です。本土とは全く違う雰囲気で海外のようでした。由布島は熱帯植物園なので、綺麗な花が見られます。そこで食べたジェラートは最高でした。竹富島では自転車を借りて、サイクリング。とても綺麗なビーチで泳いで帰りました。無料の更衣室やシャワーがあるので、海水浴がお好きな方は是非水着持参で!
まだまだ書き足りませんが、とても充実した楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

I had a great time with a plan to quickly explore Iriomote Island and Taketomi Island in one day. The lunch was quite substantial. The plan included riding a water buffalo on Taketomi Island, but the water buffalo took a while to arrive, which made me anxious about whether we would make it in time for the bus. I felt that it would have been better to shorten the stay on Yufu Island to one hour and extend the time on Taketomi Island instead.
西表島、竹富島と 1日でざっと回れるプランで楽しかったです。お昼ご飯も結構ボリュームがあります。竹富島で水牛に乗るプランでしたが、水牛がなかなかこず、その後のバスの時間が決められていたため、間に合うのかとハラハラさせられました。由布島での滞在時間を1時間にして、その分、竹富島での滞在時間を延ばしたプランがいいなと感じました。

I participated alone. Most of the other participants were families, couples, married couples, and friends, making up a tour of about 30 people. The seating on the sightseeing boat and the bus was spacious enough for solo participants, allowing me to join without any hesitation. Additionally, the lunch on Yubu Island was arranged for individuals, so I could enjoy it at my own pace.
Among the highlights, the mangrove sightseeing tour, especially the areas where two types of mangroves grow together, was very impressive. Also, crossing the sea on a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island was just like the experiences often shown in tourist brochures, which was quite fun. The warm stories shared by the water buffalo driver were also delightful.
On the day of the tour, Okinawa was experiencing a record number of COVID-19 cases, but everyone was wearing masks, and since most of the itinerary was outdoors, it was a relaxed tour with little concern about crowding.
一人で参加しました。周りは、家族づれ・カップル・夫婦・友達などがほとんどで、約30人くらいのツアーでしたが、遊覧船や途中の移動バスの席が一人掛けでも余裕のある参加人数で気兼ねなく参加できました。また、由布島での昼食も一人用に仕切ってあり、ゆっくり味わいました。
中でも2種類のマングローブが、一緒になっている所など見どころの多いマングローブ遊覧は見ごたえがありました。それと由布島へ水牛車で海の中を渡っていく様は、観光案内でよく見るあのままの体験で面白かったです。水牛使い手の方のほのぼのとした話も良かったです。
ツアー参加日は、コロナ感染者が沖縄県でも最高数を更新していく日でしたが、みなさん当然マスクもし、外がほとんどの旅程でしたので、密になることは少なくあまり気にならない、ゆったりしたツアーでした。

Our family isn't great at early morning departures, but considering the afternoon heat, it was the right choice.
The guidance at each location was smooth and well-handled, so we didn't get lost. The explanation about the mangroves at Nakama River was clear thanks to the enthusiastic staff, and on the bus to Yubu Island, the driver's lively talk about life and prices on Iriomote Island (I was surprised to hear that bean sprouts cost 170 yen) and eating goat sashimi provided us with some interesting insights.
The main goal was the water buffalo cart, and it seemed like not everyone was going to play the sanshin, so on the way back, we hopped on a water buffalo cart with a performance and thoroughly enjoyed it.
On Taketomi Island, I had my first glass-bottom boat experience, and I got to ride the water buffalo cart for the second time. By chance, there was a performance of my favorite song "Dōgami," which moved me deeply. I do wish we had more time on Taketomi Island.
Given the season, it's no surprise that the heat was quite intense. Staying hydrated, wearing hats, and using parasols are essential. The sweat we worked up could only be washed off at the hotel.
My two sons experienced the Yaeyama Islands for the first time, and I believe it will be a lifelong memory for them. I think the staff must be having a tough time in the heat, but I hope they continue to greet guests with wonderful smiles. I would love to use their services again if the opportunity arises.
早朝出発が苦手な我が一家ですが、午後の暑さを考えると正解でした。
各地での誘導は手馴れた様子でスムーズに、こちらが迷うこともありませんでした。
仲間川マングローブもお姉さんのハキハキした説明でわかりやすく、それから由布島に移動するバスでも運転手さんの軽快なトークで西表島の生活や物価(もやし170円には驚き)、ヤギを刺身で食べるなど、なかなか知り得ないお話を聞けてよかったです。
1番の目的だった水牛車は皆さんが三線を演奏する訳ではなさそうなので、戻りに演奏付きの水牛車に乗り込み、堪能させて頂きました。
竹富島では初めてのグラスボート体験
そして2度目の水牛車に乗せてもらい、偶然にも大好きな「童神」の演奏があり、心から感動しました。
竹富島の滞在時間が短かったのはちょっと心残りかな…。
この時期なので当然といえば当然ですが、暑さはかなりのものです。
こまめな水分補給、帽子・日傘必須。
かいた汗はホテルでさっぱり流すしかありません。
息子二人は初めての八重山諸島でしたが、一生の記憶に残してくれたことと思います。
スタッフの方々も暑くて大変だと思いますが、これからも素敵な笑顔で迎えていただきたいです。
また機会あれば利用したいです。

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)
ありがとうございました!

The other two tour companies I initially researched seemed to have stopped accepting reservations until July 31, leaving me at a loss. However, I found Veltra's website and was able to make an immediate reservation.
Although there was growing concern about the rapid increase in COVID-19 cases in Okinawa, I felt reassured by the thorough measures in place, such as temperature checks and hand sanitization at the meeting point. It seemed that the number of passengers was also adjusted, allowing for a comfortable seating arrangement.
After the Nakabaru River cruise and a round trip to Yufu Island by water buffalo cart, we were able to efficiently enjoy sightseeing on Taketomi Island within the limited time. I was delighted that Veltra allowed us to choose up to two options for activities on Taketomi Island, fulfilling my eager wishes.
最初に調べた他の2社の観光会社は7/31までの募集を停止していたようで予約できず、途方に暮れていた所、VeltraさんのHPに辿り着き即時予約が出来ました。
沖縄県でも連日感染者が急増中だったので、不安もありましたが、集合時の検温、手指消毒等も徹底してあり、乗船人数も調整されてたようでゆったり座れました。仲間川クルーズから水牛車で由布島往復後、竹富島での観光など、限られた時間の中で効率良く観光できるように考えられていると思いました。ベルトラさんは竹富島でのオプションを2つまで選ぶ事ができたので欲張りな願いが叶えられて嬉しかったです。

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!

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!

I participated with my 4-year-old and 2-year-old children. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we wore masks the entire time (including the kids). The mangrove tour was very sunny and hot, so it's important to stay hydrated. The kids were a bit fussy throughout since we had to wake up early. I felt that this kind of tour might be a bit too early for children of this age. (The parents got tired. Haha.) The water buffalo cart and sightseeing in Yubujima were very enjoyable, as the water buffalo were adorable. The lunch bento included ingredients and dishes typical of Okinawa, which was great. The kids had zaru soba separately. I recommend taking commemorative photos with the water buffalo during the Yubujima tour. Since it starts early, I think parents with preschoolers should ensure they get a good night's sleep the night before to enjoy the tour.
4歳と2歳の子供を連れて参加しました。コロナ禍ということもあり、基本はマスクをずっと着用しました。(子供も)マングローブ遊覧はとにかく日差しが強い、暑いので水分補給はこまめにした方がいいです。子ども達は朝が早かったこともあり、終始ぐづついていました…。これくらいの歳の子達にはまだマングローブ遊覧は早いかな?という印象でした。(親が疲れました。笑)由布島の水牛車や観光は、水牛さん達が可愛くてとても楽しかったです。お昼のお弁当も沖縄らしい食材や料理が入っており、すごく良いです。子ども達は別途、ざる蕎麦を食べさせました。由布島観光の水牛さんとの記念撮影はオススメです。朝が早いので未就学児連れの方はツアーを楽しむためにも前日しっかり寝かせておいた方がいいと思います。

Even if you leave early in the morning, you will be rushing quite a bit since you are visiting all three islands in one go.
I wouldn't recommend this for those who want to take their time, but it's great for those who want a quick tour...
On the way back from Yubu Island and during the sightseeing in Taketomi Island, I was really healed by being pulled by a water buffalo while enjoying the sound of the sanshin.
I panicked a bit when I ran out of drinks in Taketomi Island, as there were no places to buy anything. ^^:
I think it's better to secure your drinks before starting your cycling.
早朝出発しても、やはり、3島を一気に巡るので、かなり駆け足です。
ゆっくり巡りたい方はオススメしませんが、サラッと巡りたい方はオススメです…
由布島からの帰り道と竹富島観光では、水牛に引かれて、三線を奏でて頂き、本当に癒されました。
竹富島では飲み物が無くなり、売ってる所が無いので、かなり焦りました。^^:
飲み物を確保してから、サイクリング
は出発した方がいいと思います。
