The guide was truly knowledgeable about stars, plants, animals, and insects, as expected from a nature school. Rather than just talking at us, they asked many questions, making it enjoyable even for solo participants.
They mentioned at the beginning that they wanted us to feel the transition from dusk to night, which we certainly did during the relaxed tour, allowing us to spend a peaceful time. Canoeing felt more like drifting down the river than actively paddling. As dusk turned to night, we could sense the presence and sounds of creatures starting to become active, and we even saw bioluminescent plankton.
I usually choose activities that involve physical movement, but this tour, which encouraged us to pay attention to things we often overlook, shifted my perspective a bit. It was a thoroughly satisfying experience.
ガイドさんは、さすが自然学校と看板にしているだけあって、星・動植物・昆虫なんでも詳しい方でした。一方的に話進めるのではなく、こちらへの問いかけも多く、一人参加でも十分楽しめました。
「日常ではあまり意識しない夕暮れから夜へと変わっていく景色を感じてほしい」と最初にお話されてましたが、その通りにゆったりとした案内で、のどかな時間を過ごせました。
カヌーも「漕いで移動」というよりは、川の中を流される感じ。
夕暮れから夜に変わって、活動し始める生き物の気配や鳴き声を感じたり、夜光虫も見えました。
アクティビティは体を動かすものばかりを選択してきましたが、こうした何もしないで普段気にしないことに目を配り耳を傾けるのもいいなと、価値観が少し変わった大満足のツアーでした。

The Yaeyama region entered the rainy season considerably earlier than usual, so the island tour I was looking forward to was greatly diminished in enjoyment due to heavy rain. I apologize for this evaluation being based on the weather rather than the tour itself, but please understand it as a reflection of the experience.
I should have been surrounded by the blue sky and blue sea, creating a rare experience. Even with the cloudy skies and heavy rain, I managed to enjoy it to some extent, but my expectations were too high. (laughs)
The gelato at Yubu Island Chaya was delicious. I felt a bit sad that Taketomi Island has become more touristy compared to my visit 20 years ago.
Next time, I hope to use the tour again on a sunny day and give it a perfect score.
八重山地方が例年よりかなり早く梅雨入りしてしまったため、楽しみにしていた離島ツアーは大雨で楽しさ半減以下でした。
このツアーとしての減点ではなく、あくまで天気による評価で大変申し訳ないのですが、それでも体験の評価ということでご容赦ください。
本当から青い空と青い海に囲まれて得難い経験ができたはずです。
曇り空と大雨でもそれなりに楽しめましたが事前の期待が大き過ぎました。笑
由布島茶屋でのジェラート、美味しかったです。
竹富島は20年前に訪れた時より観光地化してたことが寂しく感じました。
今度は晴れた時にもう一度利用して満点評価を付けたいと思います。

Unfortunately, the starry sky was not visible, but I was able to enjoy the night jungle of Iriomote Island with excitement. The guide carefully explained each creature we encountered, and I found myself saying "Wow, I see!" repeatedly. I thought the guide was a veteran due to their attentive service and calm demeanor, but I was surprised to learn they were quite young! I highly recommend it! 😊
星空はあいにくでしたが、西表島の夜のジャングルをドキドキしながら楽しむことができました。見つける生き物を一種類ずつ丁寧に解説してもらい、へぇ〜、なるほど〜という言葉の連続でした。丁寧な対応と落ち着いたガイドでベテランさんかと思いましたが、とても若いと聞いてびっくりしました!おすすめです(^^)

Iriomote Island during Golden Week. The weather was not great with light rain. They mentioned that same-day cancellations were possible, and I debated until the evening, but I thought it would be better than lounging around at the hotel, so I decided to go after all. The guide helped us find coconut crabs, hermit crabs, and snakes, making it a fun experience. Thank you!

Thank you for allowing me to participate in the tour!
The tour started before sunset, and by the time the sun set, the river was beautifully dyed red, creating a stunning view. Although the sky was cloudy and not filled with stars, it was the best natural experience to listen to the sounds of nature while seeing the stars peeking through the clouds.
The guide was knowledgeable and explained everything in detail, which made me feel comfortable participating in the tour. On the way back, we walked through a forest where fireflies were dancing, creating a very magical atmosphere. I had an experience unique to the island that I can't see in the city. When I visit again, I would love to experience the changing of the day and the starry sky.
ツアーに参加させて頂いて、ありがとうございました!
夕日が沈む前からツアーが始まって、夕日が落ちる時には、河が赤く染まってとっても素敵な景色でした。
曇り空で、星空が一面なわけではなかったのですが、雲の間から見える星々と自然の音を聞きながら、最高の自然体験でした。
ガイドさんは博識で、何でも丁寧に教えて頂いて安心してツアーに参加することができました。
帰りは蛍が飛び交う林の中を歩いて、とても幻想的です。

Due to the rain that fell from the night before, the river swelled! The original plan was quickly revised to include cave exploration and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). The cave exploration was as thrilling as what you see on TV! It was my first experience wading into the river up to my chin. As for SUP, I struggled a bit during practice, but once I tried it, it was easy and fun! The water submersion after the battle was also a memorable experience, haha. I'm grateful to the staff who worked hard to make the unpredictable weather enjoyable! I had a great time.
夜から降った雨のため、川増水!当初の計画は急遽組み直され、洞窟探検とsupに。洞窟探検はテレビで見るような迫力!顎まで川に浸かっての探索は初体験です。supは、練習はおぼつかなかったけど、やってみたら簡単で楽しかった!
闘いの末の水没も記念です笑

I didn't realize we had arrived, and then we started the dark tour by turning the car around in a narrow passageway. I was taken down a path that made me think, "Are we really going this way?!" and right from the start, I got to see a coconut crab.
After that, we discovered various sizes of coconut crabs, and it was a continuous cycle of touching them and being surprised. We also found many other creatures. Although the starry sky was faint due to the clouds, we strolled along the beach, and honestly, it was more fun than I expected.
Watch out for the beetles that rush towards the light!
到着したと気づかずにいたら、暗闇の狭い通路で車を回転させ、感心からの暗闇ツアー開始。ここいくの?!という道を連れられ、開始早々ヤシガニを見せてもらえました。
その後も大小様々なヤシガニを発見してもらい、触ったり、驚いたりの連続。他にも様々な生き物を発見。雲が多かったため星空は薄かったですがビーチで散策もして、正直、思いの外楽しかったです。

I received a message the day before departure that landing on Barasu Island might be difficult due to tide conditions, and since the weather forecast predicted rain, I honestly felt a bit disappointed about participating. On the day of the trip, it started to rain while we were on the ferry heading to Iriomote Island. We listened to the explanation in the welcoming car, and then we started canoeing in the rain. There were three women in their 50s on this trip, and we were in a three-person canoe. Everyone was a beginner and felt anxious, but our guide, Ryusei, provided thorough explanations, and we gradually got the hang of it, making our way through the mangrove forest. The trekking to the waterfall was thrilling as we crossed a river that had risen due to the rain, and we arrived at the waterfall. We took photos in front of a rare waterfall that looked different from usual ones. We also enjoyed paddling back in the canoe. In the afternoon, we were able to land on Barasu Island, which we had given up on, and at two snorkeling spots, we saw wonderful coral reefs and tropical fish. Ryusei was cheerful and attentive throughout, which made us feel really safe and able to enjoy ourselves. For those worried about the weather, I highly recommend this tour as you can have a great time even in the rain!
出発前日に潮位の関係でバラス島上陸が難しいかもしれないとのご連絡を頂き、また、天気予報も雨だったので正直、少しがっかりした気持ちでの参加でした。当日はフェリーで西表島へ向かう途中から雨。お迎えの車内で説明を聞き、雨の中カヌーがスタート。50代女3人旅で、カヌーも3人乗り。皆初体験で不安がありましたが、ガイドのりゅうせい君が丁寧に説明して下さり、次第にコツを掴み、マングローブの森の中を進む事が出来ました。滝までのトレッキングは、雨で増水した川を横切ったりとスリル満点の中滝に到着。普段の滝とは様子が違うレアな滝の前で写真撮影。帰りのカヌーも楽しく漕ぎました。午後のシュノーケリングは、諦めていたバラス島にも上陸出来、2カ所のポイントで、素晴らしい珊瑚礁と熱帯魚を見ることが出来ました。りゅうせい君が終始明るく細かく声をかけてくれたので、本当に安心して楽しむ事が出来ました。天候で悩んでる方には雨でも全く心配なく楽しめるツアーなので、オススメしたいです!

In a word, I highly recommend this fun-filled tour.
It was my first time seeing mangroves, and my wife and I leisurely paddled along in a canoe. The guide was fantastic and took a lot of photos for us. It rained a bit, just a light drizzle, but it added to the nice atmosphere.
For lunch, we went to a local restaurant at our own expense (as mentioned in the tour description). I'm glad I brought cash.
In the afternoon, we took a boat to Balas Island for snorkeling. Since we wore life jackets, we didn't sink. The water was clear, there were corals, and we even saw fish from the movie Finding Nemo. The guide took many photos during this time as well. I borrowed prescription goggles for snorkeling, which allowed me to see the fish clearly. I also rented a wetsuit, which helped keep me warm when returning to the boat after snorkeling.
Overall, the guide was very enthusiastic and provided great guidance while taking photos, making the experience really enjoyable.
一言で言えば、楽しさ満載のツアーでオススメ。
マングローブは、自分は見るのは初めてで、妻との二人乗りカヌーでゆっくりと進む。ガイドさんはすごく良くて、写真もたくさん撮ってくれました。雨は若干降っていて、少しの小雨程度でしたが、それがまたいい雰囲気を出していました。
ランチは、自腹で(そういう説明がツアーに書いてある)で、地元のお店に入りました。現金持っていってよかったです。
午後は、ボートでバラス島に行ってスノーケリング。ライフジャケットを付けているので、沈みません。また、水も綺麗で、サンゴもあり、映画のニモもいました。この時もガイドさんがたくさん写真を撮ってくれました。
あと、自分はスノーケリングの時は度付きのゴーグルを借りました。はっきり魚が見えてよかったです。あと、ウェットスーツも借りました。その方が、スノーケリング終わってからボートに戻っても寒くないですね。
全体として、ガイドさんがとても楽しそうに色々案内してくれて、写真を撮ってくれるのですごくよかったです。

Last year, when I visited Taketomi Island, I was captivated by the water buffalo, so this time I wanted to ride one by the seaside and joined this tour. Unfortunately, it was rainy, but I was still able to enjoy the mangroves on Iriomote Island, the water buffalo on Yubu Island, and the water buffalo on Taketomi Island. Especially on Yubu Island, I was able to touch the water buffalo, which was amazing. I think it would have been even more fun if the weather had been clear, so I hope to visit again someday.
昨年、竹富島に行った際に水牛に魅せられてから、今度は海辺で水牛に乗りたいと思い、本ツアーに参加しました。あいにくの雨天でしたが、西表島でのマングローブも由布島での水牛も、竹富島での水牛も楽しむことができました。特に由布島では水牛に触れることもできて最高でした。晴天だったらもっと楽しいだろうなと思いますので、いつか再訪したいと思います。

Although there was a forecast for rain on Iriomote Island, it turned out to be sunny during the day, so I booked a stargazing tour. Even though it was the same day, they provided transportation to the hotel. The guide's explanations were great, and I was able to learn more about Iriomote Island for the first time. We observed various plants and animals, including coconut crabs, habu snakes, and crabs. It was a rare experience to step into the lush forest at night. When we emerged from the forest onto the beach, I wanted to say it was a sky full of stars! However, there were a few clouds, and the moon was out, so it wasn't quite the starry sky I had imagined, but I still experienced a wonderful night sky. If I have another chance, I will participate again.
雨の予報が出ていた西表島でしたが、なんと日中晴れたため、星空観測ツアーを予約しました。当日でしたが、ホテルまで送迎していただきました。ガイドの方の説明も良く、初めての西表島をより深く知ることができました。動植物鑑賞は、ヤシガニ、ハブ、カニなど。夜に草木茂る森に足を踏み入れることがないため貴重な体験。森を抜けてビーチに出ると、一面の星空!と言いたいとこでしたが、少し雲がかかり、月も出ていたため、思い描いていたような星空とまでは行きませんでしたが、素敵な星空を体験出来ました。またチャンスがあれは参加します。

During Golden Week, I used the service while wearing a mask as a COVID-19 precaution. The bus was full, but I think it wouldn't be a concern if you had been vaccinated.
Due to the weather making the sea a bit rough, instead of snorkeling, we rode water buffalo. (I received a confirmation about the change the day before, and details were sent via email.) They adjusted the schedule to avoid wasting time, considering the large number of tourists.
The trekking experience, where we changed our shoes, allowed us to feel the river's water temperature on our skin, bringing back the joy of childhood. It was my first time trying stand-up paddleboarding, and I was nervous about falling in, but sitting cross-legged while paddling let me enjoy the scenery in detail, making it a wonderful time! I was advised not to bring my smartphone, so I left it behind. Instead, they took photos at key moments and sent them to me via LINE. Such great service! In other countries, you would have to pay for this.
Even when we were quite behind during the canoeing with kids, they kindly chatted with us to lighten the mood, creating great memories. Everyone was cheerful and pleasant. During the bus ride, I could hear interesting stories about the characteristics of Iriomote Island and the local lifestyle. After a day of fun, I slept soundly until the next day.
GW,マスク着用コロナ対策中の利用でした。
バスは満員でしたが、ワクチン接種していたら気にならないと思います。
ツアー内容は天候で海が少し荒れたため、シュノーケリングの代わりに水牛に乗りました。

旅行客が多い中、無駄な時間を作らないよう調整してスケジュールを進めてくれました。
靴を履き替えて体験したトレッキングは川の水温を肌で感じることができて、子供の頃に戻ったような楽しさでした。
サップも初体験で落ちるんじゃないかとドキドキしていましたが、胡座すわりで漕ぐと周りの風景が細かい部分まで楽しめてとてもよい時間でした!
スマホは持っていかないようアドバイスがあったので置いていきました。変わりに要所要所で写真を撮ってくれてラインで送ってくれました。すごいサービス精神!海外だったら完璧に買わなきゃいけないところです。
子連れカヌーでかなり出遅れていたときも世間話をして和ませてくれたり親切にしてもらい、いい思い出になりました。皆さん明るくて感じよかったです。

I participated with my fourth-grade child. Although there were times when it was sunny during the day but cloudy at night, fortunately, the weather allowed us to see the stars clearly. The guide was quick on their feet and flexibly took us to a spot where we could see the stars while they were still visible. The starry sky in Iriomote Island was truly wonderful. During the night walk, we encountered many creatures like coconut crabs, habu snakes, hermit crabs, and possibly a brown hawk owl, which made for great memories for my child who loves animals. There was also another small child in our group, and I was grateful that the guide was very attentive to them. The tour provided insect repellent, lights, and since the terrain was rough, they lent us boots, so we didn't need any special equipment. It was hot, but since we sometimes walked through dense vegetation, I think long sleeves and long pants are a good idea. Thank you very much for this experience.
小学4年生の子供と一緒に参加しました。日中晴れていても夜は雲が出るというようなこともそれまではありましたが、幸いにも星空が良く見える天気に。ガイドの方が機転を利かせてくれて、星が見れるうちに星が良く見えるスポットに行くなどフレキシブルに対応くださいました。西表島の星空は本当に素晴らしかったです。ナイトウォークでもヤシガニやハブ、オカヤドカリ、コノハズク?など多くの生き物に遭遇でき生きもの好きな子供にも良い思い出となりました。もう1人小さなお子さんがいらっしゃいましたがガイドの方が丁寧に対応してくれていてありがたかったです。ツアーでは虫よけ、ライト、足場が悪いためブーツの貸し出しはしてくださったので特別な道具はいりませんでした。暑いですが茂みの中を行くこともあるので長袖、長ズボンが良いと思います。今回はどうもありがとうございました。

I used Beltora for the first time in a while. The weather was a bit unpredictable with clouds, sunshine, and sudden downpours, but I had a great time. Since I wanted to explore the islands on Ishigaki Island for the first time, I chose a hotel near the terminal. Iriomote Island is full of nature, including mangroves. On the way to Yubu Island, we suddenly encountered a downpour! The water buffalo was lively, though! I had to buy a raincoat to get to the restaurant, and as expected, the downpour stopped right after, and the return trip on the water buffalo cart was sunny (laughs).
Lunch was a standard bento, and nothing particularly memorable stood out. The water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island had great weather, and the water buffalo, Manei-kun, was lively too! We toured the island while listening to the brother's sanshin song, even though walking was clearly faster. It was a cycle of walking a few steps and stopping in the shade. We took a sightseeing bus to the beach with star sand and managed to find and pick up a little bit of star sand. It was nice that there was someone from the same hotel among the tour participants.
久しぶりにベルトラさん利用しました。
お天気は曇ったり晴れたりスコール降ったりと微妙だったけど楽しかったです
初めての石垣島で離島巡りをしたかったのでホテルをターミナル近くにしました
西表島はマングローブなど自然がいっぱい
行きの由布島水牛車でいきなりスコール!水牛は元気だったけど!!
仕方なくレストランまでのためにカッパ買ったら案の定スコール直ぐにやんで帰りの水牛車は晴れました(笑)
ランチは普通の幕の内で特に印象に残るものはなかったです。
竹富島の水牛車はお天気もよく水牛の真栄君も元気良く!
歩いた方が明らかに早い真栄君水牛車に乗ってお兄さんの三線唄聞きながら島巡りしました。4~5歩歩いて日陰で止まる感じ。の繰り返し
星の砂があるビーチまで観光バスで行き頑張って星の砂少しだけど探して拾えました。
たまたまツアー参加者の中に同じホテルの方がいて良かったです。

Despite making a reservation the night before, I received a courteous confirmation. I couldn't bring my phone when visiting the mangroves, but they took photos and sent them to me via LINE. They also shared various stories about Iriomote Island, which helped me learn a lot about the island itself. Thank you for the enjoyable tour!
前日夜に予約したにも関わらず、予約までご丁寧に連絡をいただけました。
マングローブに行く時に携帯は持っていけませんでしたが、写真を撮ってLINEに転送してくれました。
西表島のお話も色々教えていただき、島自体を知れたことがとても良かったです。
楽しいツアーをありがとうございました!

I'm glad I chose to visit three islands, as it allowed me to enjoy each one at a leisurely pace. Cycling on Taketomi Island was also very pleasant!
3島巡りにしたので、ゆっくりとそれぞれの島を感じながら巡れて良かったです。竹富島のサイクリングも気持ち良かった♪

Arranging your own island-hopping transportation can be a hassle, so I think it's best for beginners to efficiently explore the islands with this tour and then find their favorite island afterward.
Lunch on Yufu Island was delicious, featuring various local ingredients. There was plenty of food, so make sure to come hungry.
I wasn't quite sure about the bus tour details until I participated, so I'll outline the route I took. First, we spent about 15 minutes searching for star sand at Kaiji Beach. The guide will show you how to look for it. If you want to take some home, it's a good idea to bring a ziplock bag for the star sand. We didn't stop at Kondoi Beach, so if you want to go there, consider the rental bicycle plan. After that, we took a stroll down the streets of traditional houses on Taketomi Island. Along the way, we enjoyed ice pops from a local shop and took photos on the street.
This tour involves checking in in the morning to receive tickets for the boat and activities, then gathering at the designated time to have your tickets collected before moving on to the experiences. You'll travel on the same boat as customers from other tour companies.
Seating on the boat is first-come, first-served, so if you want a window seat or to sit with your family, make sure to arrive at the time indicated for boarding. Depending on the boat's departure timing, there might be instances where you can't board early, but this time we were able to board early each time, allowing us to enjoy the window seats.
自分で島巡りの手段を手配するのは面倒なので、初心者はこのツアーで効率的に島を巡って、そのあとお気に入りの島を見つけるという形が良いと思います。
由布島でのお昼ご飯は、この地方の食材をいろいろ食べることができ、美味しかったです。
ちゃんと量があるのでお腹を空かせておきましょう。
参加するまでバス観光の内容がいまいち分からなかったので、私が参加した時のルートを記載しておきます。
まず、カイジ浜で15分ほど星の砂を探しました。探し方はガイドの方が教えてくれます。持って帰りたい場合は、星の砂を入れるジップロックなど持って行った方が良いです。コンドイビーチは降りませんでしたので、行きたい方はレンタサイクルプランにしましょう。
その後、竹富島の民家がある通りをお散歩させてもらいました。途中の商店でアイスキャンデーを食べたり、道で写真を撮ることができました。
このツアーは、朝受付で船やアクティビティのチケットをもらい、時間になったら集まってチケットをもぎってもらって移動や体験、という形のツアーです。他社のツアーのお客さんとおなじ船で移動します。
船の席は先着順になるので、窓際の席や家族と一緒の席に座るなら船の出発ギリギリに行かずに、船に乗れますよ、と案内される時間にしっかり集まる必要があります。船の出発のタイミングによって早めに乗れないこともありそうですが、今回は毎回早めに乗ることができたので、窓際の席を楽しめました。

Canoeing in the mangroves was very pleasant and allowed me to experience something out of the ordinary; it was fun. The day before, we were unable to land on Barasu Island due to rough seas, so we quickly switched to a tour of Yubu Island, which was also enjoyable as we leisurely explored while riding water buffalo, creating great memories. The guide was also very friendly and engaging, which was nice. I recommend bringing a change of pants and underwear, as your bottom and lower legs will get wet while canoeing. It was also great to be able to take a shower afterward. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
マングローブの中でのカヌーはとても気持ちが良く非日常感を味わえ楽しかったです。
前日にバラス島への上陸が波風の影響で出来なくなり急遽由布島観光のツアーに代替となりましたが水牛に乗ってゆっくり観光するのも楽しく良い思い出になりました。
ガイドの方も楽しくお話ししてくださる方で良かったです。
カヌーはお尻や膝下が濡れるのでズボンや下着の着替えを持って行くことをおすすめします。
カヌー後にシャワーを浴びれたのも良かったです。
素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。
