Iriomote_island
I participated in a mangrove tour for the first time, and it was even more enjoyable than I imagined—I was very satisfied!
As we traveled along the calm river, I was able to see the magnificent nature and mangrove scenery unique to Iriomote Island up close, which was truly moving. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and the tour, while listening to stories about the flora and fauna, was very educational.
We also took a lot of photos, creating wonderful memories. This tour is highly recommended for anyone visiting Iriomote Island, as even beginners can enjoy it with peace of mind. I would love to participate again when I come back to Iriomote Island!
初めてマングローブツアーに参加しましたが、想像以上に楽しくて大満足でした!
穏やかな川を進みながら、西表島ならではの雄大な自然やマングローブの景色を間近で見ることができ、とても感動しました。ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、動植物の話を聞きながらのツアーはとても勉強になりました。
写真もたくさん撮っていただき、素敵な思い出になりました。初心者でも安心して楽しめるので、西表島を訪れる方にはぜひおすすめしたいツアーです。また西表島に来た際は参加したいと思います!
It was a very fulfilling tour that allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty of Iriomote Island in just one day!
In the mangroves, our guide provided fun explanations about the plants and creatures, and we were able to relax while enjoying the scenery. The jungle views, which are not something we usually see, were truly moving.
On Yubu Island, the experience of crossing over in a water buffalo cart was refreshing, and we were soothed by the buffalo's pace. The island was filled with tropical plants, making for a very pleasant and leisurely stroll.
Our guide was also kind and took many photos, creating wonderful memories. I think this tour is perfect for those visiting Iriomote Island for the first time!
西表島らしい自然を1日で満喫できる、とても充実したツアーでした!
マングローブでは、ガイドさんが植物や生き物について楽しく説明してくださり、景色を楽しみながらゆったり過ごすことができました。普段見ることのできないジャングルの景色はとても感動的でした。
由布島では水牛車に乗って島へ渡る体験が新鮮で、水牛さんのペースに癒されました。島内は南国らしい植物がたくさんあり、のんびり散策できてとても気持ちよかったです。
ガイドさんも親切で、写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、素敵な思い出になりました。西表島を初めて訪れる方にもぴったりのツアーだと思います!
Among the many tours available for those up to 65 years old, this tour allowed me, at 66, to kayak to Ida Beach and also go snorkeling. Both kayaking and snorkeling were my first experiences, but the guide was very thorough in teaching us, which made me feel at ease.
Ida Beach is beautiful, but the surrounding emerald green sea is truly breathtaking. The experience of kayaking through it was the best.
Thank you for this precious experience and the wonderful emotions.
65歳までのツアーが多い中、このツアーでは66歳の私でもイダの浜までカヤックで行けてシュノーケリングもできました。カヤックもシュノーケリングも初体験ですがガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくれて安心です。
イダの浜も綺麗ですが、その周囲のエメラルドグリーンの海は感動です。その中をカヤックで進む体験は最高でした。
貴重な経験と感動、ありがとうございました。
Kayaking is a round trip of 10 km, and it takes over an hour one way. I think it's manageable for those who exercise regularly.
カヤックは往復10km、片道でも1時間以上かかります。日頃から運動している方なら大丈夫だと思います。
ご参加&高評価ありがとうございます。励みになります!
機会がありましたから是非次回もご参加お待ちしております。
It was my first experience snorkeling, and the staff were friendly. I was blessed with the best conditions (calm, warm, and clear sea), and it was absolutely amazing!
シュノーケリング初体験でしたが、スタッフも親切で、最高のコンディション(穏やかで、暖かで、透き通った海)にも恵まれ、サイコーによかったです!
The Sagarihana tour has a strict age limit of 65, but I was able to participate even though I am over that age.
We started by lowering the kayaks to the river in the morning glow and began paddling. Even as a beginner, I felt at ease because the guide carefully taught us how to paddle.
The guide took us to the best spot on the river that day, allowing us to fully enjoy the blooming Sagarihana and the petals gently falling.
I would love to join again next year.
65歳制限の多いサガリバナツアーですが、このツアーでは65歳を超えた私でも参加できました。
朝焼けの中、カヤックを川まで降ろし漕ぎ始めます。初めてでもガイドさんが丁寧にこぎ方を教えてくださるので安心です。
ガイドさんがその日最高の川に案内してくれるので、満開のサガリバナ、ぽたぽた落ちるサガリバナを満喫できました。
また来年も参加したいと思います。
It seems that you can participate until the age of 80, but since the river changes depending on the day, you might need the physical strength to help unload the canoe (or kayak?) from the trailer and
80歳まで参加できるようですが、日によって行く川が違うので、カヌー(カヤック?)を牽引車から降ろしたり川へ運ぶお手伝いをできる体力は必要かも。
高評価&ご参加ありがとうございます!
是非次回もご参加おまちしております。
Two of us participated! The staff was very kind and provided transportation close to the hotel! During the canoeing, they taught us about constellations and shared information about the island, making it a great experience✨ I'm glad I participated! I recommend it to anyone who is unsure!!
女2人で参加しました!
ホテルの近くまで送迎してくれてスタッフの方もとても親切でした!
カヌー中も星座を教えてくれたり、島のことをし教えてくれたりといい経験になりました✨参加してよかったです!悩んでる方はおすすめです!!
こんにちは、西表自然学校の岩本です。この度は、西表島マングローブナイトカヤックツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。天気よく星もよく見えました。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。
The weather was nice, the Sagari-bana flowers were beautiful, and we were fortunate to have a great guide. It was the best tour! We were able to see the scenery as described in the brochure, and I thoroughly enjoyed the fragrance of the flowers. I'm very satisfied! Thank you!
天気も良く、サガリバナもキレイで、ガイドさんにも恵まれ、最高のツアーでした
パンフレットにあるような景色も見れましたし、花の香りも堪能出来て大満足です!
ありがとうございました!
I recommend marine shoes over beach sandals.
ビーチサンダルよりは、マリンシューズなどをおすすめします
高評価とご参加ありがとうございます!楽しんでいただけて何よりです。
A couple, aged 63 and 62, chose Iriomote Island for their final adventure. They have experienced canoeing over the past five years in places like the Shimanto River and Miyako Island, as well as hiking on Mount Fuji and Yakushima, but they decided it might be time for their last adventure together. In the end, it was a great decision. Although it was a bit cloudy, they were able to enjoy a pleasant half-day. Since it was just the two of them with the guide, the instructions were clear and easy to understand for the elderly. Even though they said it would be their last time, they found themselves wanting to come back again.
63歳と62歳の夫婦が最後に挑む冒険として、西表島を選びました。カヌーはここ5年間、四万十川、宮古島等で体験、登山も同じく、富士山、屋久島島等で体験していますが、そろそろ最後かなと夫婦で相談しこの地を選びました。その結果、大正解でした。少し曇りがちでしたが。気持ちの良い半日を過ごすことができました。ガイドの案内は私たち夫婦のみでしたので年寄り相手に解りやすく案内していただきました。最後といいながらまた来たいと思ってしましました。
It's very moving.
とても感動しますよ。
この度は、西表島ピナイサーラの滝半日コースにご参加頂きありがとうございました。マングローブカヤックや、トレッキングを楽しんで頂けて良かったです。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。
I was able to fully enjoy the charms of Iriomote Island in one day with canoeing, waterfalls, and snorkeling. There were many picturesque views, making it a particularly memorable experience during my trip.
カヌー、滝、シュノーケリングと西表島の魅力を1日で満喫できました。写真映えする景色も多く、旅行の中でも特に思い出に残る体験になりました。
この度は、西表島カヤック&スノーケリングツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございました。天気も良く良かったです。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。
First of all, I would like to thank all the instructors for this experience. They provided guidance in a very polite and approachable manner, creating a friendly atmosphere throughout. Although we had a guided tour in the rain, I felt that they offered a unique enjoyment and appreciation of nature that can only be found here. Approaching 50 years old, I was able to encounter one of my dreams since elementary school: the Yaeyama mangrove butterfly in Iriomote Island! I was truly very satisfied.
まずはインストラクターの方々皆さんこの度はありがとうございました。
丁寧かつフラットな感じで、終始とても接しやすい雰囲気で案内して頂きました。
雨の中のガイドではありましたが、雨ならではの楽しみ方、自然の感じ方等、ここにしか無い最大限の楽しさを提供して頂いたのではと感じております。
50歳手前にして小学生からの夢の一つ、西表島のヤエヤマヒルギシジミとも出逢えました!
本当に大満足でした
Even on rainy days, there are unique qualities that come with them, so I think the weather is somewhat like encounters in life.
雨天でも雨天ならではの良さがあったので、天候も出逢いみたいなものかなと思います。
In a word, it was a lot of fun and I'm glad I came. First of all, we were blessed with great weather, and the trekking went smoothly. There were some steeper and more challenging parts than I expected, but I was able to push through to the end thanks to the two guides and the other participants in the tour, who made it enjoyable. Soaking in the waterfall pool felt amazing! I definitely recommend this experience to everyone else. Thank you!
一言で言うととても楽しく来てよかった、と言う感じです。まずとてもお天気に恵まれ、トレッキングも順調に進みました。思ったより急で険しい所もあり大変でしたが、ガイドさん二人と同ツアー参加の方と楽しく頑張れたので最後までやり抜けれました。
滝壷での水浸かりはとても気持ちよかったです!ぜひ他の皆様にも体験をおすすめします。
ありがとうございました。
I think it's a good idea to bring a hat and sunglasses.
帽子とサングラスは持って行かれた方がいいと思います。
ゲコさま
先日はツアーのご参加ありがとうございました。高評価のレビューまでいただき、感謝しております。
晴天に恵まれ、5月とはいえかなり暑い中でのカヌー、トレッキングでしたので、最後まで楽しんでいただけたご様子に私たちもほっとしております。滝うえからの絶景や滝つぼでの爽快感は訪れた人にしか味わえない特別な体験だったのではないかと思います。
西表島にはまだまだたくさんの魅力がありますので、機会がありましたらぜひまたお越しください。
またお会いできる日のことを楽しみにしております。
ありがとうございました。

Iriomote Island was amazing! I received communication from them the day before, and on the day of the tour, there was a guide, canoeing instructions, and explanations about the mangroves and other ecosystems, making for a fun and valuable experience. Canoeing while looking at the greenery and the sea was fantastic. The water buffalo cart on Yubu Island and the botanical garden were truly enjoyable. I also visited Taketomi Island, but the experiences and sightseeing on Iriomote Island were outstanding. Iriomote Island is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and it's difficult to explore on your own, so it's efficient to go with a guide. I appreciate the transportation to the port as well.
西表島、サイコーでした!前日からご連絡も頂き、当日のガイドやカヌーのレクチャー、マングローブ等の生態の説明もあり楽しく貴重な時間でした。緑や海を見ながら カヌーは、サイコーでした。由布島の水牛車、植物園と本当に楽しかったです。竹富島も行きましたが、西表島の体験や観光が素晴らしかったです。西表島は世界自然遺産で、個人では難しくガイドさんの案内で回るのが効率的です。港までも送迎、感謝です
Iriomote Island is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and I think it's best to explore it with someone knowledgeable about the area. I recommend combining activities with sightseeing. Riding a water buffal
西表島は世界自然遺産で、地元に詳しい方と一気に回る方が良いと思う。アクテビティと観光をセットがおすすめです。由布島、水牛車に載って三線聴きながら海を渡るのは非日常感を味わえますよ
In mid-May, I participated with my 4-year-old daughter and my husband, making it a family of three. At first, I was a bit worried about whether we could do canoeing and trekking with a small child, but the guide kindly adjusted to my daughter's pace throughout the trip, and the other tour participants were also very considerate of her, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. My daughter was so excited to walk through the forest and touch the river water all by herself!
The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and shared many interesting and easy-to-understand stories about the insects we encountered along the way and the nature of Iriomote Island. Even the adults were captivated, making it a fantastic learning and adventure time that was more than just walking.
Additionally, I can't forget the freshly made hot Yaeyama soba that the guide cooked right in front of us using a burner, seasoned with kochujang! The natural setting, the soothing sound of the river, and the delicious broth that soaked into our bodies after the hike were truly exceptional, and our whole family finished it all in no time.
5月中旬に、4歳の娘と夫婦の家族3人で参加しました。
最初は小さな子供連れでカヌーやトレッキングができるか少し不安もありましたが、ガイドの方が終始娘のペースに合わせて優しくリードしてくださり、ご一緒になった他のツアー客の方も、娘のことを親切に気にしてくださり、終始安心して楽しむことができました。娘も自分で一生懸命森の中を歩き、川の水に触れて大はしゃぎでした!
ガイドさんはとても知識が豊富な方で、道中に出会う虫のことや西表島の自然について、フランクでありながらとても分かりやすく興味深いお話をたくさんしてくれました。大人もぐいぐい引き込まれ、ただ歩くだけではない最高の学びと冒険の時間になりました。
また、ランチで川のすぐ目の前でガイドさんがバーナーを使って作ってくださった、出来立て熱々の八重山そばにコーレーグースを入れた味が忘れられません!大自然のロケーション、心地よい川のせせらぎ、そして歩いた後の体に染み渡るお出汁の美味しさは本当に格別で、家族みんなでペロリと完食してしまいました。
Please be careful not to lose your sunglasses.
サングラスは無くさないようにご注意を
I experienced mangroves, SUP, and a water buffalo cart on Yubu Island. The staff were polite and cheerful, providing great guidance, which was very nice. It felt like time flowed slowly, and I was very relaxed. There are also stylish restaurants on Iriomote Island, and I enjoyed a delicious lunch there.
There was about an hour of waiting time until the return ferry, so I hope there will be a smoother ferry option available in the future.
マングローブ、SUP.由布島観光、水牛車 の体験しました。スタッフさんは丁寧で元気よく案内してくれてとてもよかったです。のんびりと時間が流れるようでとても癒されました。西表島におしゃれなレストランもあり、美味しいランチもいただけました。
帰りのフェリーまで1時間くらい待ち時間があったので、もう少しスムーズに帰れるフェリーがあるといいなと思いました。
When canoeing or doing SUP, it's easier to move if you don't bring anything with you.
カヌーやサップやるときは持ち物は何も持って行かない方が動きやすいです。
Yesterday’s canoeing trip was excellent from start to finish. We were met at the port exactly as promised and introduced to our guide, Ryoma. His English was excellent, and he explained everything clearly, making us feel very welcome.
Once we arrived, we got into our canoes and headed down the river. Ryoma was very informative about the local wildlife and nature, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We had a great time canoeing along the river, and the weather was perfect — sunny with a light breeze.
At the end of the trip, we were taken to shower facilities before being dropped back at the port, which was very convenient. Ryoma also sent us the photos he had taken during the trip, and they were all really high quality.
Overall, the whole experience was perfect and exactly what we had hoped for. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone considering it.

Double check your shoe size in cm if you are from the UK/EU or bring your own water shoes.

In the morning, I was moved by the great nature while kayaking through the mangroves✨ We entered narrow paths that felt like a maze, which was really interesting! During the free time, including lunch break, the guide introduced us to some recommended shops! After enjoying a leisurely meal, we had plenty of time to take a short stroll around the area! In the afternoon, we rode a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island and explored the island on foot🚶. There was just the right amount of free time here too! I had a fulfilling day filled with many first-time experiences!
午前中はマングローブカヤックで、大自然に感動しました✨細い道にも入り、迷路のようで面白かったです!
お昼休憩を含めた自由時間では、ガイドさんがおすすめのお店を紹介していただきました!
ゆっくり食べた後に周辺を少し散策できるくらい、十分に時間がありました!
午後は水牛車に乗って由布島へ行き、島を散策しました🚶ここでもちょうど良い自由時間でした!
初めての体験を沢山して、充実した1日でした!
I was able to see both the mangroves and the sunset, and it was relaxing, calm, and enjoyable! Thank you very much.
マングローブもサンセットも見れて
のんびりゆったりおだやかで楽しかったです!
ありがとうございました。
The guide listened to our wishes attentively, and we were able to fully enjoy the mangroves we love! We also encountered many unique creatures from Iriomote Island, such as the heron and the kingfisher, and the explanations about the island's nature were very interesting. Thank you for the wonderful memories!
ガイドさんが丁寧に希望を聞いてくださり、大好きなマングローブを満喫できました!
ヘラサギやアカショウビンなど、西表島ならではの生き物にもたくさん会えましたし、島の自然についてのご説明もとっても面白かったです。
素敵な思い出をありがとうございます!
I experienced a mangrove canoe 🛶 and water buffalo tour at Yufu Island 🐮. First of all, I'm really glad I chose this tour! The distance from the mangrove spot to Yufu Island was surprisingly far, and traveling by car was essential. I believe that participating in the tour allowed me to smoothly experience both activities in one day! Moreover, our instructor, Shabi, provided various interesting facts about Iriomote Island while guiding us, which made the experience even more enjoyable than the activities themselves!
I also joined the tour as a day trip from Ishigaki Island. After the tour ended, there was a bit of time before the return ferry, but I highly recommend Maruma Beach 🏖, which is about a 10-minute walk from the ferry terminal! It was the most beautiful sea I've ever seen, and since I happened to have clothes that I didn't mind getting wet, I changed and played in the sea. The time until the ferry arrived flew by!
マングローブカヌー🛶&由布島水牛観光🐮のツアーを体験しました。
まず、本当にツアーにしてよかったです!マングローブスポットから由布島までは意外と距離があり、車での移動必須でした。ツアーに参加したからこそ、1日でスムーズに両方体験できたと思います!そして何よりインストラクターのシャビさんが、色々な西表島豆知識を挟みながら案内してくださったので、アクティビティそのもの以上に楽しむことができました!
また石垣島から日帰りで参加したのですが、ツアー終了後~帰りのフェリーまで少し時間があきますが、フェリー乗り場から歩いて10分ほどのところにあるまるまビーチ🏖が本当におすすめです!!!今まで見た海の中でいちばんきれいで、ちょうど濡れてもいい服装を持っていたので、着替えて海で遊んでいると、フェリーまでの時間はあっという間でした。
Even in the case of canoeing, it's essential to wear clothes that can get wet since your bottom will get a little wet when you sit down!
カヌーの場合でも、座るとお尻が少し濡れるので濡れてもいい服装は必須です!
We had a great afternoon during the canoe tour in the mangroves. The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about the mangrove ecosystem. The excursion was well organized, relaxing, and very enjoyable. We definitely recommend it!

My first canyoning experience was in the great outdoors of Iriomote Island, where the heat and tranquility coexist. With the reliable support of our guide, I was able to enjoy it without any worries!
I jumped into a stream that appeared in a jungle I would usually hesitate to enter, and it felt amazing to surrender myself to the pleasantly cool flow.
Including the mini trekking before and after, it was a memorable grand adventure. Additionally, I added a half-day tour of Yufu Island before the canyoning tour, making the most of my time after arriving from Ishigaki Island, and I was very satisfied!
初めてのキャニオニングは、西表島の熱気と静けさが同居した大自然の中で、頼れるガイドさんの適切なサポートの下で、心置きなく楽しむことができました!
普段なら入ってみたいが躊躇するジャングルに現れた渓流に、いざ飛び込み、心地よい冷たさの流れに身を任せるのはとても気持ちが良いです。
前後のミニトレッキング含め、思い出に残る大冒険でした。
またキャニオニングツアーの前に、半日の由布島観光も追加して1日お世話になりましたが、石垣島から到着後の時間をフルに活用でき、大満足です!
The morning mangrove canoeing was exhilarating, as it felt like an adventure through a dense jungle, surrounded by lush greenery. I felt incredibly refreshed as I experienced the sparkling surface of the water up close. After that, I took a shower at the office and had some free time to eat lunch at Uehara Port.
Later, the ride on the water buffalo cart to Yubu Island was surprisingly leisurely. Listening to the sound of the sanshin while gently gliding over the sea was a truly luxurious and happy experience. This tour allowed me to enjoy both active adventure and the soothing charm unique to Okinawa, creating memories that will last a lifetime!
午前のマングローブカヌーで、生い茂る緑の中を抜けていくのは、まるで密林を冒険しているようなワクワク感があり、キラキラした水面を間近に感じて最高にリフレッシュできました。その後、事務所でシャワーを浴び、お昼は上原港で自由に食べる時間がありました。
その後、水牛車での由布島への移動は、驚くほどゆったりとした時間が流れていました。三線の音色を聴きながら、海の上をのんびり進む感覚は、なんとも贅沢で幸せな気持ちになります。アクティブな冒険と、沖縄らしい情緒たっぷりの癒やしを両方味わえて、一生の思い出に残るツアーでした!
The day before and the day of our visit were beautifully sunny, and the sea around Barasu Island had an incredible clarity that felt like it could swallow you whole! We were enchanted by the many corals and fish, and we were fortunate enough to encounter a lionfish as well.
My elementary school daughter experienced the ocean and snorkeling for the first time in her life. At first, she was nervous, but the guide, Ok-kun, and all the staff at Pipi were truly friendly and supportive, and by the end, she was saying, "This is so much fun!"
Having her first experience in such a beautiful sea was truly a luxurious experience. The time spent gently swaying in the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island was also fantastic, making it a day where we could fully enjoy the charms of Iriomote.
Thank you very much!
前日・当日と快晴で、バラス島の海は吸い込まれそうな透明度!たくさんのサンゴと魚たちに癒され、なんとハナミノカサゴにも出会えるという幸運に恵まれました。
小学生の娘は今回が人生初の海&シュノーケリング。最初はドキドキでしたが、
ガイドのおっくんさんやpipiのスタッフの皆さんが本当にフレンドリーで優しくサポートしてくださり、最後は「楽しすぎる!」と大はしゃぎ。
初めてがこの綺麗な海なんて、本当に贅沢な体験になりました。
由布島の水牛車でのんびり揺られる時間も最高で、西表の魅力をフルコースで味わえた一日でした。
ありがとうございました!
I had a great time with the fun guidance. They clearly separated the difficulty levels for those who can jump from high places and those who are not so comfortable, so everyone enjoyed it! The water is still cold!
楽しくガイドしていただき楽しかったです。
高いところから飛び込める人と苦手な人でしっかり難易度を分けてくれるので、全員が楽しめました!
水はまだ冷たいです!
Such a fun day! Tour guides were especially great, knowledgeable about the ecosystem we were hiking through, kind, and friendly. Got to see a great view, have a good meal, and swim in the watering hole. Photos throughout the trip was a plus too.
こんにちは、チャーミーさん。
空風の和也&しんごです!
先日はツアーに参加してくださりありがとうございます。
あの日はなかなか長い旅路でしたが、無事、ピナイサーラの滝壺と滝上にたどり着くことができましたね!
お二人の故郷にも滝はたくさんあると思いますが、西表島にも他に100を超える滝がございます。
興味があれば、またぜひいらしてみてください。
それでは、またいつか!
I was really satisfied with the mangrove canoeing experience, just as I had imagined. They were considerate about taking photos so that not many other people were in them, and I have done quite a few activities, but I really enjoyed this one!
思い描いていた通りのマングローブカヌーができてすごく満足です。写真も他の人があまり映らないように配慮いただいたり、アクティビティは結構してきましたがとても楽しめました!
They took beautiful photos and videos, allowing us to enjoy SUP and canoeing. The weather was great, making it the perfect situation. The instructor also explained everything clearly.
映える写真や動画を撮影して下さるので、SUPやカヌーを楽しめました。天気がよかったので最高のシチュエーションでした。インストラクターの方もわかりやすく説明して下さりました。
The weather in Iriomote Island can be unpredictable, so there might be some hits and misses, but if you want to capture memorable photos and videos, why not join a sunset tour?
西表島の天気は変わりやすいので当たり外れは多少あるかもしれませんが、思い出に残る写真や動画を撮りたい方はぜひ夕暮れのツアーに参加してみてはいかがでしょうか?
We participated as a couple, experiencing a mangrove kayaking tour in the morning and riding a water buffalo cart to Yufu Island in the afternoon. Although the weather wasn't great, with some wind and occasional light rain, I was really glad we could still go ahead with the activities.
We were guided by Komachan during the kayaking. I appreciated that even though I couldn't take photos with my own smartphone, he took plenty of pictures for us. Since there were quite a few participants, it was challenging to paddle without bumping into others.
At Yufu Island, we had about an hour of free time, which allowed us to explore the area, so that was nice.
On the day of the tour, the ferry to Uehara Port was canceled, so we had to go to Ohara Port and then take a bus to gather at Uehara Port. However, I was grateful that we were taken back to Ohara Port afterward. Overall, it was a fun experience that you can only have on a tour.
夫婦での参加、午前はマングローブカヤック、午後に水牛車に乗り由布島へ行く体験をしました。
天気が良くなく、風も少しあり時々小雨が降る日でしたが実施できて本当に良かったです。
カヤックはこまちゃんに引率して頂きました。
自分のスマホで写真を撮れなくても沢山写真を撮っていただけて有難かったです
人数が多めだったのでカヤックを漕ぐとき他の参加者にぶつからないようにするのが大変でした。
由布島では1時間ほど自由時間となりぐるっと周れたのでよかったです
当日は上原港行の船が欠航になり大原港に行ってそこからバスに乗って上原港へ集合する流れになりましたが帰りは大原港まで送っていただき有難かったです。
総じてツアーならではの楽しい経験ができてよかったです。
In a kayak, your lower body will get wet normally. If the weather is bad or the temperature is around 20 degrees, it's better to bring a change of clothes.
カヤックは下半身は普通に濡れます。天気が悪かったり気温が20度位の場合は着替えを持っていった方がいいです。
I participated in the mangrove canoeing and Yufu Island tour. It was our first experience canoeing as a couple, but the explanations were thorough, so we could enjoy it with peace of mind. There were narrow areas surrounded by mangroves, but we were able to navigate through them without any issues. I wasn't very confident in my physical strength, but even with breaks along the way, I didn't fall too far behind. I joined in mid-April, and at first, the water felt cold, but once I got used to it, I hardly felt the chill.
At Yufu Island, in addition to riding a water buffalo, we enjoyed a wonderful experience with the staff playing the shamisen and singing. Both at the mangroves and Yufu Island, the staff provided detailed explanations at each step, allowing us to enjoy the tour with confidence.
マングローブカヌーと由布島観光に参加させていただきました
カヌーは夫婦初体験でしたが、説明もしっかりして下さるので、安心して楽しむことができました✨マングローブに囲まれた狭い箇所もありますが、問題なく進むことができました
体力に自信はありませんでしたが、途中休憩しながらでも大きく遅れることもなかったです 4月中旬の参加で、初めは水が冷たいと感じましたが、慣れれば冷たさは殆ど感じませんでした
由布島では水牛に乗車に加えて、スタッフの方の三味線と歌もついて、素敵な体験ができました🐃
マングローブでも由布島でも、スタッフの方が丁寧に都度説明をしてくださるので、安心してツアーを楽しむことができました
I was lucky enough to participate just the day before the event! After making the reservation, I received prompt communication and they adjusted the pickup location for the day. Overall, the staff were very courteous, taking photos during the activity and sharing them, as well as introducing Iriomote Island on the bus.
The tour content was also fulfilling! Personally, I found Yubu Island to be even more enjoyable than I expected. The hardworking water buffalo were adorable, and the unique plants of Yubu Island were thriving, making me feel the negative ions! The weather in mid-April was just right—not too hot and not too cold.
開催日前日の直前でしたが運良く参加できました!
予約後すぐにご連絡をいただき当日のお迎え場所を調整してくださいました。
総じてスタッフの方が丁寧でアクティビティ中に写真を撮影して共有してくださったり、バス車内で西表島の紹介をしてくださいました。
ツアー内容も充実していました!個人的に由布島が思っていた以上に楽しかったです。一生懸命な水牛が可愛くて、由布島には西表島ならではの植物が生き生きと育っていてマイナスイオンを感じました!4月中旬の気候は暑すぎず寒くもなくちょうどよかったです。
