I travel to Okinawa about 2 to 3 times a year, and I've been to places like Miyako Island several times, so this time I planned a trip to Ishigaki and Iriomote! On the second day of the trip, we did a tour of Kabira Bay and the Blue Cave with Pipi, the same shop, and on the third day, we experienced this plan!
The canoe experience in the mangroves and snorkeling at Barasu Island were both really fun, and what made it even better was that all the guides were cheerful, friendly, and kind, allowing us to have a great time throughout! I'm really glad I participated in Pipi's tours on both Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Island! I heard they also have a location in Miyako Island, so I would love to use their services again when I go back to Miyako Island!
毎年2~3回は沖縄へ旅行に行くのですが、本当や宮古島には何度か行ったことがあるので、今回は石垣&西表旅行を計画しました!旅行2日目は同じショップのピピさんで川平湾と青の洞窟のツアーをし、3日日目にこちらのプランを体験しました!
マングローブでのカヌー体験もバラス島でのシュノーケリングも本当に楽しくて、何が楽しいって担当してくれるガイドさんがみんな愉快でフレンドリーで優しくて終始楽しい時間を過ごすことができました!
石垣島も西表島もピピさんのツアーに参加してよかったです!
宮古島にも店舗があるみたいなので次宮古島に行ったときはまたお願いしたいです笑

The snorkeling at Barasu Island was canceled due to rough waves, so we changed our plans to visit Yubu Island. The water buffalo ride to Yubu Island was fun! The canoeing was nice because we got to see the mangroves! We crossed a fairly wide area to see the mangroves, so I was imagining a canoe surrounded by mangroves in a narrower river, which left me a bit wanting. The young girl who was our guide was nice, but it might be better if someone coming from outside the prefecture had a bit more local history and knowledge. Overall, it wasn't disappointing, and I had a great time!
バラス島のシュノーケリングが波が立つとのことでキャンセルになり、由布島観光に変更しました。
由布島への水牛楽しかったです♪
カヌーはマングローブが見れたのでよかったです!かなり広い皮を横断する形でマングローブを見に行ったので、もう少し幅狭い川でマングローブに囲まれるカヌーを想像していたので少し物足りなさはありました。若い女の子がガイドさんで、県外からくる人はもう少し地元の歴史や知識があると嬉しいかもしれません。
がっかりするほどではなく総じて楽しめました!

I was able to refresh myself while being healed by nature and getting a good workout. I dove into the river and then floated around, which was very soothing. Our guide, Mol-chan, provided excellent guidance along the way, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any injuries! I was also very lucky to encounter some rare animals on Iriomote Island. Mol-chan taught us various things about the creatures, making it a curious and enjoyable tour that brought back my childhood spirit. I felt the negative ions from the nature of Iriomote Island, which was very healing. Thank you very much!
大自然に癒されながら、しっかり体も動かしてとってもリフレッシュできました〜
川にダイブして、その後ぷかぷかと浮いてとても癒されました✨道中はガイドのモルちゃんがしっかりと案内してくれて、怪我もなく楽しめました!
道中に西表島の珍しい動物にも遭遇できたり、とてもラッキーでした✌️

Thank you for taking me, a 68-year-old, on the tour to Pinai Sara Falls, which mostly caters to those around 60 years old. I had a great time swimming and jumping in the waterfall basin. The lunch with rice balls, pickles, and fried chicken was delicious. Above all, I was very happy to have my photos taken and receive the data. Thank you to the young male and female tour guides.

I used pipi for the first time.
I made a last-minute reservation the night before, but the service was great and I had a very enjoyable time.
I even ran into other participants after the activity, and we chatted about our recommendations, which I think was thanks to the guide's excellent communication skills.
Additionally, the guide recommended some great restaurants and beaches during the tour, which added extra enjoyment beyond just the tour itself.
I would like to use this service again when I visit Iriomote Island next time.
初めてpipiさんを利用させて頂きました。
前日の夜に急遽予約をしたのですが対応が良くとても楽しい時間でした。
他の参加者とも、アクティビティー後に偶然にお会いする事があり、お互い何処がオススメだったか立ち話しする程だったので、ガイドさんのコミュ力のおかげだと思います。
又、ツアー中のオススメのご飯屋さんやビーチを教えて頂き ツアー中だけでなく+αで楽しめました。

Unfortunately, we couldn't go to Balas Island due to the weather, but I was very satisfied with the mangrove canoe experience, which felt much longer than just an hour and a half! It was a truly extraordinary experience, and I'm really glad I participated in this tour!
Thank you so much to our tour guide, Hikaru, for delivering my forgotten items to the port at the end! I don't think there are any other tour companies or guides as attentive as this one. I highly recommend them!

残念ながらバラス島へは天候の影響で行くことが出来ず、マングローブカヌーのみの参加になりましたが、1時間半とは思えないくらいの内容で大満足でした!非日常の体験をすることができ、このツアーに参加して本当によかったです!

This time, I chose pipi because I had a great experience with them before. They are kind and attentive, and I recommend them since the photos are free. During the car ride, they talked about the plants and animals of Iriomote Island and recommended restaurants and supermarkets. The guide made sure to engage with each person, which made me feel comfortable participating in the activities. I want to join pipi's activities again next time. Many of the guides are young and have moved here, so if you're considering relocating, feel free to ask them questions!
今回、予約したのは以前参加して、とても良かったpipiさんにしました。親切丁寧、写真無料なのでオススメです。車の移動中も西表島の植物や動物の話をしてくれたり、おすすめのご飯屋さん、スーパーを教えてくれました。
ガイドさんは一人ひとりに声をかけてくれて安心してアクティビティに参加出来ました。次に参加する時もpipeさんのアクティビティに参加したいと思っています。
ガイドさんは若い方が多く移住してきているので移住したい方は色々聞いたら教えて頂けますよー!

I participated in the rainy season in June, and I was fortunate with the weather, allowing me to enjoy the experience comfortably. First, I was picked up at Uehara Port (I arrived at a different time than specified, but they handled it smoothly), and we went to the shop to prepare for the canoe and Pinai Sara Falls. Since I was worried about getting dirty, I was able to borrow a hat and bag from the shop, which was very helpful.
We moved by car to the canoe experience. It was about a 40-minute ride, during which the guide provided a lot of explanations, and I learned various things about the plants and characteristics of the mangroves that I didn't know before. Since it was the training period for a new guide, we had a team of one new guide and one veteran guide, and with only the two of us participating, it turned into a luxurious private tour.
Pinai Sara Falls was very impressive and refreshing, and we were able to swim in the basin. Throughout the journey, they took many photos for us. After having lunch, we headed back, changed at the shop, and then went to Yubu Island.
We traveled by water buffalo cart, and we were able to relax on Yubu Island for about an hour. One disappointing aspect was that there were options for the water buffalo cart with and without "sanshin performances," and the one we took (as specified) did not have the performance either way. I was looking forward to that part, so I was a bit disappointed, but everything else was enjoyable, and it turned out to be a very good experience. I highly recommend it!
6月の梅雨シーズンに参加しましたが、お天気に恵まれ快適に楽しめました。まずは上原港でピックアップしていただき(指定されたのと違う時間に到着しましたが、スムーズに対応いただけました)、お店に行ってまずはカヌーとピナイサーラの滝の準備。汚れるということで、帽子・バッグはお店のものをお借りできて、これがとても助かりました。
車で移動し、カヌー体験。40分程度のライドでしたが、その間ガイドの方が沢山説明してくださり、植物やマングローブの特徴など、知らなかったことを色々と学べました。ちょうど新人ガイドさんの研修時期だったので、新人さん&ベテランさんの2名体制で、かつ参加者も我々2名だけだったので、ぜいたくな貸し切りツアーとなりました。
ピナイサーラの滝はとても迫力があって気持ちよく、滝つぼでも泳げました。行程中、写真もたくさんとって下さりました。
お昼ご飯を食べ、帰路につき、お店で着替えてからは油布島へ。
水牛車に乗っての移動で、油布島では1時間程度ゆっくりできました。ひとつ残念だったのは、水牛車には「三線演奏つき」と「そうでないもの」があり、我々が乗ったもの(指定された)は、往復ともに「三線演奏なし」でした。楽しみにしていたパートだったので、これだけはちょっとがっかりでしたが、あとは全て気持ちよく参加でき、とても良い体験になりました。おすすめです!

After the May holidays, I enjoyed a relaxing time without encountering large crowds. The trip included lunch with transportation to Hoshino Resort Hotel, and they provided almost all the equipment, making it very comfortable. We departed at 9 AM, equipped with swimsuits, rash guards for sun protection, sandals, hats, tea, and hand towels. After a 15-minute boat ride from Uehara Port, we snorkeled at about two spots before landing on the Phantom Island!! We swam with sea turtles‼ It was a fleeting moment. After switching from the boat to a car, we had lunch at a scenic spot before heading to the canoe launch site. We aimed for the waterfall on the canoe, which took just over an hour. Getting to the waterfall after disembarking from the canoe was physically challenging due to the steep ups and downs! However, once we saw the waterfall, we forgot all about the difficulty. Definitely challenge yourself to jump in. Delicious snacks await!! On the way back, we enjoyed different scenery. Time flew by, and I was thrilled to receive photos and videos from the staff—what a joy! It was the best!!
5月の連休が終わった中、人の多さにも会うことなくゆっくりとした時間の中で
星野リゾートホテルまで送迎付きの昼食付で、道具もほぼ貸して頂いて快適でした。あさ9時に出発して(水着・日焼け予防にラッシュガードの上下・サンダル・帽子・お茶・ハンドタオル)上原港より船に乗って15分、2か所ぐらいのポイントでシュノーケリング後、幻の島に上陸!!ウミガメと泳いだり‼
あっとゆうまの時間でした。 船から車に乗り換えて景色にいい場所で昼食後車でカヌーの乗り場へ カヌーに乗って滝を目指します。1時間ちょっと
カヌーを降りて滝までは足元がアップダウンが激しいので体力勝負です!!
でも、滝が見れると激しさも忘れます。ぜひ飛び込みにチャレンジして。
おいしいおやつが待っています!! 帰りは違う景色が見れます。
時間が経つのが早すぎると思いながら、スタッフから写真・動画を頂き うれしいの一言でした! 最高!!

I participated last year as well, and it was so much fun that I really wanted to go again this year, so I invited my friends and joined. I was overwhelmed by the changing expressions of Ishigaki Island depending on the weather. Last year, there was less water, and it felt like we could play happily, but this time, after heavy rain, there was a lot of water, making it a thrilling tour. However, thanks to the guides' arrangements, there were very few dangerous situations. I think the experience of being able to jump into a waterfall pool is something you can't often experience in life, and kayaking while seeing mangroves up close was also a valuable experience. I will definitely participate again if I have the chance!
去年も参加してたんですが楽しすぎて今年もどうしても行きたくて友達も誘い参加しました。
天気によって変わる石垣島の表情に圧倒されました。
去年は水が少なく楽しく遊べると行った感じでしたが今回は大雨の後で水が多くスリリングなツアーでしたがガイドさんたちの計らいで危ないことはとっても少ないです。
滝壺に、飛び込めるなんて体験はなかなか人生では経験できないことだと思いますし、マングローブを身近に見ながらカヌーなども貴重な体験でした。
また機会があったら参加します!!
Thank you for participating in the tour with Iriomote Island ADVENTURE PiPi.
I think that as we grow up, the opportunities to play fully in nature decrease! I love the moments when everyone comes together and jumps into the water with a sense of unity ^_^
I always enjoy nature to the fullest, so I would love to have you on another tour if you're interested!
Everyone listened well, and I had a great time myself!

I participated in a day trip from Ishigaki Island.
In the canoe, my viewpoint was close to the water's surface, so when I looked up, the sky felt very high and wide, and we were able to get very close to the mangroves. As we slowly moved along, feeling the sounds of birds, the water, and the wind, a scenery I had never seen before unfolded before me, creating an extraordinary world.
I had a truly wonderful time.
The guide's instructions on paddling were easy to understand, allowing me to participate with confidence.
Additionally, the various topics discussed during the tour were abundant and enjoyable, and I learned a lot.

I went on a course to Pinai Sara Falls (the waterfall basin) and a limestone cave. We reached the waterfall by canoe and trekking. At the end of May, the water was a bit cold, but it felt great to swim in the waterfall basin after getting hot from walking, and to enjoy the splashes from the falls.
We experienced complete darkness in the limestone cave, which we couldn't have reached without a guide, and it was full of wonders—so much fun! We participated as a couple in our 50s, and it was an easy course to manage. The onigiri (rice balls) and pineapple for lunch were delicious too.
I'm glad I wore a rash guard and leggings.

I received a confirmation call the day before, and the very polite explanation made me feel at ease as I headed to Ishigaki Island for the first time. On the day of the tour, when I met the guide at the port, they greeted me with great energy, which left a good impression. It was also helpful that they confirmed the day's schedule during the gathering, making it easy to envision how the day would unfold. Thank you very much.
The tour itself was fantastic; the snorkeling was in a very clear sea, and I was able to swim comfortably. The guide matched our pace, which made it very enjoyable. During the river jumping tour, I jumped into the river with all my might, which reminded me of playing in the river as a child, and it was a lot of fun. Thank you for taking so many photos.

This tour is highly recommended for beginners in Iriomote Island! Here are three reasons why:
1. You can participate with peace of mind.
2. You'll come to love Iriomote Island.
3. You'll learn a lot from the guide who loves Iriomote Island.
Below are my experiences, content, and impressions.
I participated in the canyoning and mangrove canoeing tour in Iriomote Island. Initially, I had signed up for snorkeling, but due to unfavorable weather, I switched to canyoning. However, I received careful communication from the day before, which allowed me to discuss with my companions and confidently join the tour. At this point, I felt a sense of trust and reassurance towards the shop.
As for canyoning, the tour involved heading towards the waterfalls of Iriomote Island while navigating through the woods and down the river. There were moments where we jumped at the guide's encouragement, making it an exciting experience throughout. My companions were initially anxious as they had never participated in canyoning before, but by the end, they were completely satisfied, saying, "I want to do this again." Most importantly, the guide clearly communicated any dangerous spots and precautions in advance, allowing us to participate in the tour with peace of mind.
Regarding the mangrove canoeing, after navigating through the mangroves by canoe, we walked and received various explanations. The guide provided detailed information about the plants and creatures around the mangroves, allowing us to learn about the ecosystem. I was amazed at how much the guide knew about the growth of plants, how to plant seeds, and the characteristics of different organisms. We encountered a downpour along the way, but it was the first time as an adult that I felt such refreshing rain.
Throughout the tour, the guide was attentive to the participants, making it an enjoyable experience. The lunch spot they recommended was delicious and fantastic. Next time, I definitely want to join the snorkeling tour!
このツアーは西表島初心者におすすめです!
理由としては、3点です。
1.安心して参加できる
2.西表島のことが好きになる
3.西表島大好きなガイドさんに色々教えてもらえる
以下参加経緯と内容、感想です。
西表島のキャニオニング&マングローブカヌーのツアーに参加しました。
始めはシュノーケリングに申し込んでいましたが天候に恵まれずキャニオニングに変更に…ただ前日から丁寧に連絡をいただけたこともあり同行者としっかり相談してツアーに参加することができました。
この時点でお店に対する信頼感、安心感がありました。
キャニオニングですが、西表島の滝を目指して林間を抜けて川をくだるという内容でした。
途中途中でガイドさんからの掛け声でジャンプしたりと終始盛り上がる内容でした。
同行者も初めはキャニオニングに参加したことがなく不安がっていましたが、最後には「またやりたいね」と大満足の内容でした。
何より危険な場所や注意点を事前にはっきりと伝えていただけたので、安心してツアーに参加することができました。
マングローブカヌーですが、マングローブの中をカヌーで抜けた後、歩いて様々な説明をしていただきました。
マングローブ周りの植物や生物について詳細に教えていただき、生態について学ぶことができました。
植物の育ち方や、種子の植え方、生物の特徴などよくこんなに知っているなと思うほどガイドさんが教えてくれます。
途中でスコールにも見舞われましたが、大人になってからこんなに気持ちいいと思った雨は後にも先にもあれが初めてです。
終始ガイドさんは参加者への気配りを欠かさずに行ってくれており楽しく参加できました。
教えてくれたお昼ご飯のお店も美味しくて最高でした。
次回は今度こそシュノーケリングのツアーに参加したいと思います。

It was a tour that left both my husband and me completely satisfied. The main guide, I, had exceptional knowledge, explanations, and consideration (the assistant, Y, also did a great job).
We participated with another couple (who were beginners at canoeing) and my husband (who had one previous canoe experience), and thanks to I's guidance and entertaining stories, we enjoyed the round trip of 40 minutes each way at a perfect pace.
The trekking to the waterfall was safe due to the provided water shoes and timely reminders, and the explanations about the jungle were very informative.
The lunch of rice balls and fried chicken was truly delicious. The rice balls were made with local rice and were extra large, but I ended up eating two of them without hesitation.
The other couple seemed to join the snorkeling afterward (since it was a full-day course), but for us, who were tired in the latter part of our trip (in our 50s and 60s), the half-day course was just right (laughs).
Lastly, the owner who drove us back to our accommodation (a charming older gentleman) was enjoyable to talk to. Thank you very much to everyone at Iriomote Monsoon!
P.S. During canoeing, the UV rays are strong and you get thirsty, so hats, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc., are essential, along with one bottle of water per person. If you want to soak in the waterfall pool, wear a swimsuit underneath. As for cameras, you can take photos with your phone (they provide waterproof bags for carrying), but the guide will also take pictures with their camera and provide the data for free later.
夫婦揃って大満足のツアーでした。メインガイドのIさんの豊富な知識、説明、気遣いなどが秀逸でした(アシスタントのYさんも頑張っていた)。
他1組のご夫婦(カヌー初心者)と私と夫(カヌー体験1回)の4人で参加しましたが、Iさんのご指導と楽しいお話のおかげで、往復各40分を楽しく、また丁度いいペースで進めました。
滝までのトレッキングも沢シューズを貸してもらっていたことと、タイミング良い注意喚起などで、安全に行え、ジャングルの説明も非常に勉強になりました。
お昼のおにぎりと唐揚げも本当に美味しかったです。おにぎりはご当地のお米だそうで、特大だったのですが、2個ペロッと食べてしまいました。
もう1組のご夫婦は、(1日コースということで)その後のシュノーケリングも参加されたようですが、旅の後半で疲労が溜まっていた私達夫婦(50代と60代)には、半日コースが丁度良かったです(笑)。
最後に宿まで送ってくれたオーナーさん(イケオジです)の話も楽しかったです。西表モンスーン社の方々、本当にどうもありがとうございました!
追伸:(カヌー中は)紫外線が強く喉が乾くので、帽子やサングラス、日焼け止め等は必須、それに一人1本のボトルウォーター。滝つぼに浸かりたい人は、中に水着を着ていきましょう。カメラについては、携帯(防水バッグを貸してくれるので持ち運びできる)で写真を撮ることも可能ですが、ガイドさんが自分のカメラで撮ってくれて、後で無償でデータをくれます。

I participated in a mangrove canoe and Pinaisara Falls tour on Iriomote Island for the first time!
Canoeing under the blue sky was incredibly refreshing!
At Pinaisara Falls, with its impressive drop, I had a blast swimming in the plunge pool.
On the hiking trail, I encountered a habu snake and saw many plants and animals I had never seen before, which was very fascinating.
After the falls, I experienced the mysteries of nature further with a limestone cave exploration tour.
We started from a spot by the road that made me think, "Wait, from here?"
We crouched down to pass through the cave while getting wet, and at one point, we turned off our lights to experience complete darkness. There were also many strange bugs, and we looked for footprints of wildcats and boars. It was full of experiences you can't find in tourist caves.
Overall, it was a day packed with the essence of Iriomote! Thank you to our guide for the wonderful day.
初の西表島でマングローブカヌー+ピナイサーラの滝ツアーに参加してきました♪
青空の下の穏やかなカヌーは最高に気持ちよかった!
圧巻の落差、ピナイサーラの滝では滝つぼで泳いだりして大はしゃぎ笑
途中の登山道ではハブに出会ったり、初めて見る
植物や動物だらけで大変興味深かったです。
滝の後は鍾乳洞探検ツアーでさらに大自然の神秘を体験。
道路の脇の、え?こんな所から?って場所からスタート。
洞内を小さくしゃがんで水に浸かりながらくぐり抜けたり、途中でライトを消して真っ暗闇にしてみたり。へんな虫もたくさんいたし、ヤマネコやイノシシの足跡を探したり。観光鍾乳洞では味わえないことだらけ。
総じて西表っぽさ盛りだくさんの一日でした(^^)
ガイドさん、1日ありがとうございました。

I entered a tributary from Nakama River and paddled for about two hours. Along the way, I was very satisfied to encounter crabs, gobies, and the dappled sunlight filtering through the mangrove forest. Our guide, John, was also very helpful.
仲間川から支流に入り、2時間ほど漕ぎました。途中、カニやハゼ、マングローブ林の木漏れ日に会えて大満足。ガイドのジョンさんのガイドも親切でした。

I participated in my first trip to Iriomote Island. When I arrived at the port, the guide welcomed us. The guide was a handsome young man, and he was knowledgeable about the history and nature of Iriomote Island, sharing many interesting stories. The activities were almost a first-time challenge for me, but he provided thorough instructions, so I felt safe and enjoyed myself. I became captivated by Iriomote Island, and I will definitely come back to visit again. Thank you very much.
初めての西表島旅行で参加しました。
港に着くとガイドさんが出迎えてくれます。
ガイドさんはイケメン青年で、西表島の歴史や自然についても詳しく、興味深い話が沢山聞けました。
アクティビティというものもほぼ人生初の挑戦でしたが、丁寧にレクチャーをしてくれるので安心して楽しめました。
西表島の虜になりましたので、また必ず遊びに来ます。
ありがとうございました。

I visited Iriomote Island for the first time. In the morning, the weather was bad, and it was disappointing that snorkeling was canceled, but canyoning was really fun. In the afternoon, the mangrove canoeing was nice as the weather cleared up, and it felt great. The staff at pipi taught me a lot about the island's charm and the fun of the activities, and I had a wonderful time in a warm atmosphere.
初めて西表島に行きました。
朝は天気が悪くて、シュノーケルが中止になってしまったのは悲しかったけど、キャニオニングもとっても楽しかったです。午後のマングローブカヌーでは晴れてきてとても気持ちよかったです。pipiの方が島の良さやアクティビティの楽しさをたくさん教えてくれて、温かい雰囲気の中、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
Thank you for participating in the tour with Iriomote Island ADVENTURE PiPi.
Your strong curiosity and numerous questions made me feel very fulfilled, and it was an incredibly enjoyable day! Since this island is known as Japan's last unexplored frontier, the tour content can be easily influenced by nature, but I love how this nature shows a different face every day.
With many beautiful sights throughout the seasons, please feel free to contact us again when you visit Iriomote Island! Thank you very much!

I'm glad I was able to see stars that are usually not visible.
Paddling through the dark mangroves in a canoe, I was able to experience a magical world, and it was great to see the bioluminescent plankton as well.
Additionally, the guide's explanations were clear and thorough, which I highly recommend.
普段見られない星が、見られて良かったです。
暗闇のマングローブを、カヌーで進み、幻想的な世界、夜光虫も見られ良かったです。
また、ガイドさんの説明が、分かりやすく丁寧でおすすめです。
Thank you for participating in the Iriomote Island Mangrove Night Kayak Tour. We appreciate your enjoyment of the beautiful weather and the night’s darkness. We hope to see you again in the future. Thank you!

The last time I visited, I went river rafting on a leisure boat, so this time I wanted to do something with more activities, which is why I chose this tour.
There was a discrepancy between the meeting time listed on the voucher at the time of booking and the time I was told over the phone the day before. This required me to cancel and rebook the boat I had reserved the night before, which was a frustrating start. I was told that the schedule was based on the boats from Yaeyama Tourism, but that information wasn’t written anywhere, and I had no idea.
As for the activities, we did canoeing on both Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Island, and the water clarity was definitely better on Iriomote Island. Despite it being a bit hot, I enjoyed it comfortably.
The snorkeling at Barasu Island was canceled due to rough seas, and in the afternoon, we were switched to a tour of Yubu Island. Since Yubu Island has such beautiful nature, I wish they would minimize the number of signs and plates to show the scenery as it is.
I exchanged LINE information with the tour staff because they said they would send photos, but in the end, I never received any photos. I wonder what that was all about. I would like to visit Iriomote Island again if I have the chance, but the tour left me feeling a bit unsettled.
以前訪れた際はレジャーボートで川下りをしたので、今回はもっとアクティビティ度が高いことがしたく、このツアーを選びました。
予約時のバウチャーに載っていた集合時間と前日電話で言われた時間が異なっていて、事前に予約していた船を前日夜にキャンセルと再予約が必要になり、いきなり出鼻を挫かれるスタートでした。八重山観光の船を基準にスケジュール組んでるからと言われましたが、そんなことどこにも書いてないし知らんし。。
肝心のアクティビティは、今回石垣島と西表島の両方でカヌーをしましたが、水のキレイ度が断然西表島の方が良く、少し暑いくらいのなか、気持ちよく楽しめました。
バラス島のシュノーケリングは海が荒れているため中止と前日に連絡があり、午後からは由布島観光に振替えました。由布島はせっかくの自然なのだから、案内のプレートや看板は極力減らしてそのままの景色を見せて欲しいなと思ってしまいました。
ツアーのスタッフの方が写真を送るからとLINE交換したのですが、結局写真は届くことはなく、あれはなんだったんだ。。
西表島は機会があれはまた行きたいですが、ツアーはちょいちょいもやもやする内容でした。
Dear Mr. Tanaka,
Thank you for your continued support. This is Nakai from Iriomote Island ADVENTURE PiPi.
First of all, I would like to sincerely thank you for participating in our tour the other day.
I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the discrepancy between the meeting time stated at the time of booking and the actual meeting time, which resulted in the cancellation of the ferry the day before. We have already initiated the procedure to change the meeting time with the other party and are currently awaiting confirmation.
Regarding the photos, our guide Matsushita sent them immediately after the tour, but since you mentioned you were unable to confirm them, I will resend them today. I appreciate your understanding and kindly ask you to check them.
I deeply apologize for not being able to meet your expectations during your important trip. We would be grateful if you could consider using our services again when you visit Iriomote Island in the future.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.

We walked along a path in the coastal forest, illuminated by flashlights, heading towards the river with our guide. It felt like an adventure even before getting on the canoe! Although I was a beginner at canoeing, we practiced paddling on land before getting in, and the instructions were given very carefully, which made me feel safe and able to enjoy the experience. While paddling, our guide explained many constellations and animals that are active at night.
It was bright due to the full moon, so we couldn't see the bioluminescent plankton in the middle of the river, but our guide found a spot where we could see them, and I was really moved when we discovered the sparkling plankton. I was also happy to hear the calls of owls and geckos. Thank you for the wonderful memories!
ガイドさんと夜の暗い中、海沿いの林にある小道を懐中電灯で照らして歩き、川を目指しました。カヌーに乗る前も、探検しているみたいで楽しかったです!
カヌーは初心者でしたが、乗る前に陸地で漕ぐ練習を行い、乗り方も丁寧に説明して下さるので、安心して楽しむことができます。カヌーを漕ぎながら、ガイドさんは星座や夜に活動する動物をたくさん説明して下さりました。
満月で明るかったので、川の真ん中では夜光虫が見えなかったのですが、ガイドさんが見える場所を探して下さり、キラキラとした夜光虫を見つけた時はとっても感動しました。フクロウやヤモリの鳴き声を聞けたことも嬉しかったです。
楽しい思い出をありがとうございました!

Clothes that can get wet are recommended. It's also a good idea to prepare towels and a change of clothes.
I made a mistake by wearing trekking pants over my swim trunks, so they got soaked from the rain and the spray from the waterfall. In the afternoon, I spent time only in my swimsuit, which made for a very cold experience on Yufuin Island in the bad weather.
I participated in late February, but the temperatures seem to be better in early March.
濡れても良い服がおすすめ。タオルや着替えも準備しておくと良いです。
何を誤ったのか、海パンの上に、トレッキングのパンツをはいて参加したので、雨と滝の水しぶきでトレッキングパンツはびしょ濡れ。午後は、水着のみで過ごしたので、悪天候の由布島では、非常に寒い思いをしました。
2月の下旬に参加したのですが、気温的には3月に入ってからの方が良さそうです。

At the Pinay Sara Falls, reached by mangrove canoe and trekking, I breathed in the ozone from the water spray. Walking through the cave with a narrow entrance was a bit surprising, but as I shone my light and moved forward, the space gradually opened up, allowing me to touch the stalactites up close. It was a truly unique experience.
マングローブカヌーとトレッキングで着いたピナイサーラの滝では、水しぶきのオゾンを吸い、道なき森を歩く鍾乳洞は狭い入口にちょっと驚き、ライトを照らして進むと次第に広がる空間で、鍾乳石を間近で触れる中々体験できないツアーでした。

During the canyoning tour, as we walked through the forest and reached the river, we experienced nature in a way that is usually not possible! It was a joy to return to our childhood, jumping, swimming, and floating around (*^^*). I felt that a bond was formed among the guests as we counted down together!
I’m glad we could introduce a lot about the nature and wildlife of Iriomote Island during the car ride as well!
We look forward to seeing you again!
