I had been looking forward to this tour for a long time. Especially on the day of the tour, it happened to be the day of the Tanetori Festival on Taketomi Island, so I was very lucky to see the island's traditional culture up close.
前々から楽しみにしてたツアーでした。
特に当日の竹富島は、たまたま種子取祭の日という事で、島の伝統文化を目の前で見ることができとてもラッキーでした。

I signed up for a day trip to Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, which I had never visited before. I was efficiently guided by boat and bus, making for a fulfilling day. Initially, I considered renting a car, but since I was traveling alone, I appreciated not having to deal with the fatigue of driving, and I found the bus trip surprisingly enjoyable. In particular, deepening my knowledge of mangroves and the experience of the water buffalo cart tour on Taketomi Island was invaluable.
これまで行ったことがなかった西表島・由布島・竹富島を日帰りで行けるということで申し込みました。船・バスで効率よく案内してもらえて、充実した1日となりました。当初レンタカーも考えてましたが、1人旅でしたので、運転の疲れもなく、バス旅行も意外といいなと思いました。特に、マングローブの知識が深まったことや竹富島での水牛車観光は貴重な体験となりました。

I went on a tour of Iriomote Island and Yufu Island from Ishigaki Island. The staff were polite, and it was a fun day. If I had to say something, it rained the whole time... I can't win against the weather, but it would have been even better if it had been sunny.
西表島・由布島観光を石垣島から行って来ました。
スタッフさんも丁寧で楽しい一日でした。
欲を言えばずっと雨で。。天気には勝てないですが晴れてるともっと最高と思います。

I participated in the morning tour!
It was great to see the mangroves slowly!
I think it would have been even more fun if we could have stayed on Yubu Island a little longer. I felt so happy riding the water buffalo while listening to the sound of the sanshin on the way to the island!
Since it ended early, I was also able to go to Hoshizuna Beach with a rental car in the afternoon, which was nice!
Thank you very much! ♡
午前のツアーに参加しました!
マングローブゆっくりみられてよかった!
由布島はもうすこし長くいられても楽しかったかも?ゆったり水牛に乗って三線の音色を聞きながら島まで行く時間すごく幸せ〜って思いました!
早めに終わるので!午後もレンタカーで星砂の浜にいったりもできてよかったです!

At the meeting point at the remote island terminal, we received an explanation from the tour company, were handed an itinerary and ticket set, and instructed to place a sticker indicating the tour on our chests. I was a bit anxious about being able to act on just this explanation, but there were staff members at key points to confirm things, so I was able to navigate without getting lost. The mangrove tour in Iriomote Island was enjoyable, with the guide's explanations being easy to understand, so I recommend doing the mangrove sightseeing with a guide! In the afternoon, we swayed on a water buffalo cart while listening to a sanshin performance on Yubu Island. For lunch, we had local dishes like mimiga with shikwasa flavor and umukujii, which were delicious. Taking photos and feeding the water buffalo idol, Louis, was also fun. If I had to point out a downside of this tour, it would be that the free time on Yubu Island was short. Other than that, I was very satisfied!
集合場所の離島ターミナルでツアー会社から説明を受け、旅程表とチケットのセットを渡され、胸部にツアーと分かるシールを貼るように言われました。これだけの説明で行動できるか不安でしたが、要所要所で確認の係の人がいて、迷わず行けました。西表島のマングローブツアーは、ガイドさんの説明が分かりやすくて楽しめたので、マングローブ観光は説明付きをおすすめします!午後は、三線の弾き語りで水牛車に揺られながら由布島へ。昼食は、ミミガーのシークヮーサー風味やウムクジーなど、郷土料理も入っており、美味しかったです。水牛アイドルのルイくんとの写真撮影や餌やり体験も楽しかったです。このツアーの残念ポイントを挙げるなら、由布島での自由時間が短かったこと。あとは大満足でした!

I had the chance to meet many birds at Nakama River and enjoyed a relaxing cruise while viewing the mangroves. The water buffalo cart was interesting because each water buffalo had its own personality. The time spent walking slowly, making splashing sounds with each step, became one of my cherished memories.
仲間川ではたくさんの鳥たちに出会えて、マングローブを見ながらのんびりクルーズを楽しめました。水牛車では水牛によって個性があって面白かったです。歩くたび水をぴちゃぴちゃ音を立てながらゆっくり歩くちょっとした時間もとっておきの思い出の一つになりました。

Iriomote Island, Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island can all be visited in one day, making for a very fulfilling plan!
- Iriomote Island: I enjoyed a mangrove cruise while listening to our guide's stories, which felt like a real jungle adventure. We stopped to learn about the names of the mangroves and the purple heron, allowing us to fully appreciate Iriomote Island.
- Yubu Island: We crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo through shallow waters, which was a rare experience to interact closely with the buffalo during our free exploration of the island! The lunch included in the plan allowed us to taste local Okinawan ingredients, and later, I personally enjoyed gelato (island banana and milk) at a café that was quite delicious.
- Taketomi Island: We took a bus to Kaiji Beach, famous for its star sand, where we searched for star sand and enjoyed the scenery, fully experiencing Taketomi Island. After that, although it was from the car window, we could view Kondoi Beach and take a round trip while riding a water buffalo through the town, making for a very fulfilling plan.
One point to note is that there is very little free time, so those who want to explore Taketomi Island freely may feel a bit rushed. However, since you can visit all three islands in one day, I highly recommend this for anyone looking to island hop!
西表島、由布島、竹富島を1日で回れ、かなり充実したプランでした!
・西表島:ガイドさんのお話を聞きながらマングローブクルーズを堪能でき、リアルジャングルクルーズを体験しているようで楽しかったです。マングローブの名前やムラサキサギなど、その場で止まって紹介していただけ、じっくり見ながら西表島を満喫できました。
・由布島:浅瀬の中を水牛に乗って由布島へ渡り、由布島の自由散策で水牛と間近で触れ合う貴重な体験が出来ました!プランについてる昼食では沖縄の食材を味わうことができ、その後の残りの時間で個人的に行ったカフェのジェラート(島バナナ•ミルク)がかなり美味しかったです。
・竹富島:星の砂で有名なカイジ浜にバスに乗って移動し、星の砂を探したり、景色を見たり竹富島を満喫できました。その後、車窓からではありますが、コンドイビーチを眺めたり、水牛にのって街並みを観ながら周辺を一周できるのでかなり充実したプランでした。
一点、自由時間がほとんどないため、竹富島で自由散策をしたい方は少し時間が足りないと感じるかもしれませんが、3つの島を1日で回れるので島巡りしたい方にかなりおすすめです!

This was my first trip to Ishigaki Island, so I wasn't sure what to do, and I joined a day tour that included Iriomote Island and Yubu Island.
When we arrived at Iriomote Island and transferred to a bus, the driver provided a lot of explanations about the island, which helped me understand more and made the sightseeing more enjoyable. On Yubu Island, which we crossed by water buffalo cart, there was a lush subtropical botanical paradise. It felt like being in another country. There were flowers and various types of plants that can only be seen in Okinawa.
You can also experience a butterfly garden and a pond with many water buffalo, as well as interact with them. Although I didn't have high expectations for lunch, it was a delicious meal with generous portions, allowing us to enjoy Okinawan cuisine.
The final mangrove cruise was a relaxing way to view the mangrove forest from the boat, and the guide provided explanations about the ecology of the mangroves, the plants, and the creatures, making it an informative experience.
This trip was not just about enjoying the scenery; I was able to learn various information while having fun, which made me very satisfied. If it's your first time in Ishigaki Island and you're feeling lost or want to have a more enjoyable trip, I highly recommend participating in this tour.
石垣島旅行は初めてなので分からなくて西表・由布島めぐり日帰りツアーに参加しました。
西表島に着いてバスに乗り換えて移動する時に、運転手さんが島についてよく説明してくれていろいろ分かるようになったし、より楽しく観光ができました。
水牛車に乗って渡った由布島では自然豊かな亜熱帯植物楽園がありました。
海外に来たような雰囲気でした。
沖縄でしか見られない花やいろんな種類の植物があります。
蝶々園とたくさんの水牛がいる池、水牛ふれあい体験までできます。
昼食も付いてて大した期待はありませんでしたが、ボリュームもあって沖縄料理を楽しめるおいしい食事でした。
最後のマングローブ遊覧はマングローブ林をのんびり船から見学ができ、ガイドさんがマングローブの生態や植物、生き物について解説しながら案内してくれて学びの多い時間でした。
景色だけを楽しむ旅行ではなく、様々な情報も一緒に学びながら楽しむことができて、その点にとても満足しました。
石垣島が初めてで迷っていたり、もっと楽しい旅行をしたい方はぜひ参加してほしいです

The glass-bottom boat took us out to the sea, and they worked hard to find fish, but there were fewer than I expected. When we threw out some bait, large, simple fish came around. I was hoping to see some more unusual fish, which is why I gave this rating. We visited three islands, and everyone guided us smoothly, so I didn't have any issues.
グラスボードは海のスポットに出て一生懸命魚を探してくださるけど、思っていたような魚は少なく餌をまくと大きなシンプルな魚がやってきました。
もう少し変わった魚が見えるかと思っていたのでこのような評価としました。
3島巡りをしましたが、皆さん流れ良く案内等をしてくださり、困る事もありませんでした。

I traveled from Ishigaki Island's ferry terminal to Iriomote Island and took a mangrove cruise. I knew the cruise wouldn't go too far into the mangroves, but I was a bit disappointed that we turned back much sooner than I expected.
Next, I took a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island. Yubu Island felt like a botanical garden and was very beautiful. The water buffalo cart was just as I had hoped.
Lunch at the island's cafeteria was also good.
Then, I visited Taketomi Island. Since I added all the options, we first went on a glass-bottom boat to see the corals and fish. The water clarity was a bit poor due to the typhoon that had just passed, but I was satisfied because I could still see corals and fish. It would have been even better if the water had been clearer, but that's just luck.
After that, we toured the island by microbus. I was a little disappointed by the number of people. Finally, I rode the water buffalo cart again to circle the island, and then we walked around the places we visited by water buffalo cart until it was time for the ferry. We were taken by bus to the ferry terminal and then took the ferry back to Ishigaki Island's ferry terminal.
I was very satisfied to have visited three islands in one day.
石垣島離島ターミナルより西表島に渡り、仲間川マングローブクルーズ。
マングローブクルーズはあまり奥まで行かない事は分かっていたが、期待していたよりも全然手前で戻ってしまったので少し残念。
次に水牛車で由布島へ。
由布島は全体が植物園の様な感じでとてもキレイでした。水牛車も期待通りで良かったです。
島の食堂でのランチも良かったです。
そして三島目の竹富島。
オプションを全部付けたので始めはグラスボートでサンゴと魚を見に行きました。
台風直後だったので水の透明度が少し悪かったですが、サンゴも魚も見れたので満足。
水が透明だったらなお良かったですが、こればかりは運ですね。
その後マイクロバスで島内観光。人の多さに少しがっかりでした。
最後は水牛車に乗ってもう一度島内をぐるりと回り、その後船の時間まで歩いて水牛車で回った場所をおさらい。
フェリー乗り場までバスで送ってもらい、フェリーで石垣島離島ターミナルへ。
1日で三島巡りできてとても満足でした。

First, we took a ferry from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island. On Iriomote Island, we cruised through the mangrove forests by boat. The guide provided detailed explanations about the mangrove ecosystem, and I learned so much—it was a wonderful experience!

We then took another ferry to Taketomi Island, where we also rode in a water buffalo cart! This time, the cart took us around the streets of Ishigaki, allowing us to enjoy a different scenery compared to Yubu Island.
It was a luxurious tour packed with highlights from all three islands! If you're visiting Ishigaki Island and want to explore many nearby islands, I highly recommend this experience!
まず石垣島からフェリーで西表島へ。
西表島ではマングローブ林の中をボートでクルージング。マングローブの生態など詳しく解説してもらえて、初めて知ることばっかりでとてもいい経験になりました!
石垣島から由布島へは水牛で海を渡りました。
水牛がとても可愛くて癒されますし、海を渡りながらガイドさんが三線を弾いてくれるので、沖縄をすごく感じることのできる瞬間です!!
さらにフェリーに乗って、竹富島に行き、ここでも水牛車に乗りました!
今度は石垣の街並みを回ってくれるので、由布島とはまた違った風景を楽しむことができます。

Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy with occasional sunshine, I had a fulfilling sightseeing trip. On the high-speed boat Premium Dream, I enjoyed the view of the blue sea while listening to explanations about Taketomi Island and Kuroshima, making my way leisurely to Iriomote Island without getting bored. Despite the high tide during the mangrove cruise, I had a great time hearing about clams the size of a fist and various creatures and plants. The tour bus driver was also a great storyteller, which made it enjoyable. The water buffalo cart to Yubu Island was impressive as we listened to Okinawan folk songs played on the sanshin while being amazed by the strong water buffalo moving through the sea. The Okinawan cuisine on Yubu Island was also very delicious, and I finished every bite. Next time, I would like to participate during low tide.
曇り時々晴れの生憎の天気でしたが、充実した観光旅行が、出来ました。高速艇プレミアムドリーム号で、竹富島や黒島の説明を聴きつつ、青い海を見ながら、飽きることなく、西表島までゆっくり出来ました。マングローブ遊覧も大潮で満潮だったにも関わらず、げんこつ位の大きさのしじみの話とか、色んな生き物や植物の説明があり、かなり楽しめました。観光バスドライバーも話し上手で、楽しかったです。由布島までの水牛車は、三線の沖縄民謡を聴きつつ、海の中を力強く進む水牛に圧倒され、由布島の沖縄料理も非常に美味しく完食しました。今度は干潮の時に参加したいと思います。

It was also great to interact with the water buffalo named Rui. I was concerned about mobility with an elderly companion, but the staff were all very kind, and since most of the transportation was by boat and bus, we were able to participate comfortably.

This time, I applied for a day trip tour to Iriomote and Yubu Island because I wanted to ride the water buffalo.
Unfortunately, the weather on the day was not favorable, with rain coming and going, but I was able to purchase a raincoat at the Iriomote Terminal, so I enjoyed the trip without any issues.
We proceeded along the Nakama River in Iriomote, observing the mangroves on both sides of the river and the animals that only inhabit the area, and finally rode the water buffalo to Yubu Island!
On Yubu Island, we had free time, so we first enjoyed lunch. The luxurious bento allowed us to savor Okinawan cuisine, and I was very satisfied. There is also a café on Yubu Island, and if the weather is nice, the view of the sea is beautiful, making it a perfect location.
On the return trip with the water buffalo, there was a performance by the guide on the sanshin, which was fantastic (there was no performance on the way there, and it seems that whether you can hear the performance depends on luck, as some guides perform and some do not).
I will definitely use this service again! Thank you for the wonderful tour!

We took a boat to Iriomote Island! Although it was a paid ride, the view from the boat was absolutely wonderful, and the breeze felt great! ^ ^
The water buffalo cart takes you to Yubu Island at the pace of the water buffalo, so we made stops along the way, and their efforts were really adorable! ^ ^
Since they have different personalities, some water buffalo walked briskly while others strolled leisurely, and I was excited to see which water buffalo would be taking us back! ^ ^
They all have their own names! ^ ^
We were able to explore Yubu Island in about an hour on foot!
We also enjoyed a delicious lunch along the way!
We got to take commemorative photos with the water buffalo!
We received the photos for free! ^ ^
After that, we relaxed while enjoying the mangroves and the beauty of Iriomote Island! ^ ^
Next, we headed to Taketomi Island!
We took a bus to Kaiji Beach and searched for star sand!
The guide told us where to find the star sand!
Definitely participate and get the information! ^ ^
Next, we rode the water buffalo cart for about 30 minutes of sightseeing!
Since it was also at the water buffalo's pace, the riding time varied! ^ ^
The guide on the water buffalo cart played the sanshin and performed local songs! ^ ^
The scenery and the water buffalo matched perfectly, it was the best! ^ ^
Finally, we had a photo session with the water buffalo, and we received those photos for free! ^ ^
It was a day that flew by, and I was truly satisfied! ^ ^
予定通りの時間にホテルまでお迎えに来てくれました!
船に乗って西表島へ!有料になりますが船の外から観る景色はとても素晴らしく、風も気持ち良かったです!^ ^
水牛車は水牛さん達のペースで由布島まで送ってくれるので、途中に立ち止まったりしますが、ホント頑張ってる姿が可愛かったです!^ ^
性格が違うので、力強くどんどん歩く水牛や、のんびり歩く水牛と様々で、帰りはどの水牛さんかなと楽しみでした!^ ^
みな名前がしっかりあります!^ ^
由布島は歩いて1時間位で観て回れました!
途中にお昼も美味しくいただきました!
水牛さんとの記念撮影ができました!
無料で写真も貰えました!^ ^
その後マングローブを観ながらまったりと西表島を味わっていました!^ ^
次に竹富島です!
バスでカイジ浜に行き星砂を探しました!
ガイドさんが、どういったとこに星砂があるか教えてくれました!
ぜひ参加して教えてもらってください!^ ^
続いて水牛車に乗り30分程観光です!
こちらも水牛さんのペースなので乗っている時間はバラバラでした!^ ^
水牛車のガイドさんが三線弾きながら地元の歌を披露してくれました!^ ^
景色と水牛に良い感じに合ってて最高でした!^ ^
最後に水牛さんと撮影があり、無料で貰えました!^ ^
あっという間の一日で本当に大満足でした!^ ^

This was my second time participating in this type of tour, and this time the weather was even better than last time. The colors of the sky, the sea, and the greenery were all stunning, making for an emotional day. The staff were very polite and sometimes humorous while guiding us through Iriomote. Thanks to them, I fell in love with the water buffalo, the Iriomote cat, the coconut crab, and the nature of Iriomote Island. I was a bit disappointed with the lunch on Yubu Island, but since it's a remote island, I can't complain. I was grateful to have it. Next time, I definitely want to stay on Iriomote Island and relax to my heart's content.
このタイプのツアーに参加するのは2度目でしたが今回は前回より天候にも恵まれて、空の色、海の色、緑の色どれも素晴らしく感動の一日でした。担当の方々はとても丁寧に、時には面白く西表のことを案内してくださいました。おかげで水牛さん、イリオモテヤマネコ、やしがに、西表島の自然、すべてが大好きになりました。由布島の昼食がすこし残念な感はありましたが、離島なので文句は言えないですね。ありがたく頂きました。今度は是非西表島に宿泊して心ゆくまでのーんびりしたいです。

I participated in the tour on October 21. The weather was mostly cloudy, but I think it was just right because it would have been hot if it had been sunny.
The mangroves of Iriomote Island, the water buffalo cart on Yufu Island, the scenery of Taketomi Island, and the beaches were all great.
The bus and boat guidance was smooth as well. I would definitely like to use this service again if I have the opportunity!
Thank you very much.
10/21のツアーに参加させていただきました。
天気は、曇りが多い日でしたが、照っていたら暑かったと思うので
ちょうどよかったと思います。
西表島のマングローブ、由布島での水牛車、ご飯
竹富島の街並み、浜辺どれも良かったです。
バス、船の案内もスムーズでした。
また機会があれば是非利用したいです!
ありがとうございました。

The water buffalo cart was very comfortable and enjoyable. The glass-bottom boat was not great due to the rain the day before, which affected the clarity of the water. There were also fewer fish; it was better at Kabira Bay, where there were fish and sea turtles even in shallower areas.
水牛車はとても心地よく楽しかった。グラスボートは前日の雨で海の透明感かイマイチ。魚も少なかった、川平湾の方が水深の浅いところでも魚や海亀がいてよかったです

This tour took place after I saw my sister off.
We arrived at Iriomote Island, crossing the vast ocean under a clear blue sky.
On Iriomote Island, I was welcomed by a water buffalo named Yudai, who gave me a ride. Despite needing to take breaks along the way, Yudai guided me in the right direction, overcoming his own discomfort. During the journey, our guide sang a song on the shamisen while calling out to Yudai, which resonated as a comforting voice for me.
When we arrived at Yufu Island, I was greeted by vibrant flowers and a variety of plants. They appeared to me as flowers prepared in memory of my late sister.
The mystical mangrove forest, though I couldn't see their faces, reminded me of my sister's hands, feet, and fingertips from days gone by. On the way back, I was carried by Ayame-chan.
I was taught by Yudai and Ayame-chan about the path I should take moving forward. Thank you. With feelings of emotion and gratitude, this memory will live on forever!
"Island of meeting and love!"
Thank you all very much.
このツアーは姉を見送ってからのことでした。
青く晴れ渡るなか雄大な海を渡り西表島へ到着しました。
西表島では水牛のユウダイ君が待っていてくれて乗せてくれました。ユウダイ君は途中で休みながらも苦痛なる自分の気持ちを行くべき方向へ渡ってくれました。途中、案内人の方がユウダイ君に声を掛けながら蛇味線で唄を披露してくださり、またそれは自分への慰めの掛け声として響き渡りました。
由布島に着くと鮮やかなお花を始め多彩な植物が迎えてくれました。それは、亡くなった姉への弔いの為に用意された花々として目に映りました。
また、神秘的であるマングローブの大群には顔は見えずとも在りし日の姉の手や足、または指先にも見えて映りました。帰りはあやめちゃんに乗せられて帰りました。
ユウダイ君にあやめちゃんにこれからの自分の行くべき道を教えられました。ありがとう。感動と感謝を胸にこの思い出はいつまでも生き続けるでしょう!
「島に会いと愛!」
皆様本当にありがとうございました。

The weather was nice, and I enjoyed the islands around Ishigaki. I think it's a great tour with excellent cost performance and time efficiency. However, due to my own lack of confirmation and time constraints, I was unfortunately unable to visit the star sand beach that I was looking forward to.
天気も良く、石垣周辺の島々を楽しむことができありがとうございました。
コスパ、タイパにも優れておりお得なツアーだと思います。
ただ自分の確認の仕方が悪かったことも有、時間的な制約で楽しみにしていた星の砂の海岸に行くことができず一つだけ残念でした。
