Iriomote Island → Mangroves, Yubu Island → Round trip by water buffalo, Taketomi Island → Star sand searching and glass-bottom boat.
This tour was perfect for our family, who are beginners at visiting remote islands (father, mother who is four months pregnant, and a five-year-old child)! It was an efficient way to visit the classics.
Since transportation costs and lunch are included, we could move smoothly without any hesitation. The round-trip high-speed ferry is relatively large, so even with slightly high waves, it was comfortable and we didn't get seasick. We were able to take a nap during the trip, which allowed us to explore the islands energetically.
The lunch featuring mimiga (pork ear) with shikuwasa and purple sweet potato tempura was delicious and memorable! Our five-year-old child was free for the tour, so they didn't have lunch, but the portion was large enough that we could share from the mother's plate, which worked out perfectly.
I felt that the time spent on Taketomi Island was short. It was a remote island where I could appreciate the atmosphere and the beauty of the sea. I would love to visit again next time, especially the cobalt blue Kondoi Beach and Kaiji Beach, where you can find star sand.
I think this tour is a great way to discover your favorite remote islands!
西表島→マングローブ、由布島→往復で水牛、竹富島→星の砂探しとグラスボート。
離島初心者の我が家(父、妊娠4ヶ月の母 、5歳の子供)にはピッタリ!定番を効率よく回れるツアーでした。
移動費も昼食代も込みなので、あれこれ迷うことなくスムーズに行動できます。
往復の高速フェリーも大きめなので、波が少々高くても船酔いしにくく安心。移動中も仮眠を取れたので、元気に離島を巡ることができました。
昼食のシークワサー風ミミガーと紫芋の芋もちのようなウムクジ天ぷらが美味しくて印象的でした!5歳の子どもはツアー料金無料なので昼食は出ませんでしたが、1人分の量が多いので母の分を取り分けてあげて丁度良かったです。
竹富島の滞在時間が短く感じました。
島内の雰囲気や海の美しさが好きだなぁと思える離島でした。コバルトブルーのコンドイビーチや、星の砂が見つかるカイジ浜など、また次回ゆっくり訪れたいです。
自分の好きな離島が見つかるツアーだと思います!

It was my first visit to Ishigaki Island, so I signed up for a tour plan. The order of the islands may change depending on the tides of the day. I also had a change in plans, and Taketomi Island became the first stop. I was glad to go in the morning since there was cycling involved; if it had been in the afternoon, I might have been exhausted under the blazing sun. The round trip to Yubu Island, where I could ride a water buffalo, was soothing thanks to the host's sanshin performance.
初の石垣島訪問でしたので、周遊プランを申し込みました。
島の順番は、当日の潮の加減で前後することがあるみたいです。
私も、当初の予定から変更で竹富島が一番になりました。
サイクリングがあったので、午前中に行けて良かったです。昼からだと、炎天下でバテていたかもしれません、
水牛ちゃんに乗れる由布島往復は、主さんの三線に癒やされました。

On Iriomote Island, we experienced one of the few days of high tide that occur about eight times a year, and the water level was so high that we couldn't see the roots of the mangroves during the mangrove tour. However, we were guided through a route that can only be accessed during high tide. On Yubu Island, we enjoyed a round trip on a water buffalo cart and a lunch while exploring the island. On Taketomi Island, there were cycling courses available, and I was glad to ride the water buffalo cart again as I learned a lot about the islands. Since it's a small island, this tour, which can be completed in a day, was very enjoyable.
西表島では一年に8回程しかない大潮の日に当たり、水位が高くマングローブ遊覧はマングローブの根元が全く見えませんでしが、大潮時にしか通れないルートを案内してもらえました。由布島では水牛車での往復とランチ島内散策、竹富島ではサイクリングのコースがありましたが、島についての説明がいろいろ聞けたのでまた水牛車に乗って良かったと思いました。小さい島なので1日で周れるこのツアーはとても良かったです。

Since it was my first time in the Yaeyama Islands, I joined this tour that allows you to visit three islands in one day. It was packed with activities, and by the end, I had such a fulfilling day that I was completely exhausted.
It was a sunny day in July, so it was really hot, and staying hydrated and protecting against UV rays were essential. The UV levels are said to be seven times higher than in Tokyo. Since this is a daytime tour, I think it's especially important for those visiting in the summer to take precautions.
The guide's stories were all fascinating, and I got a glimpse into the history of the islands and the lives of the residents, which made me want to learn more about the Yaeyama Islands. It was a valuable experience. Thank you very much.
初めての八重山諸島だったので、1日で三島巡りができるこちらのツアーに参加しました。盛りだくさんな内容で、終わるとぐったりするほど充実した1日を過ごすことができました。
7月のよく晴れた日でしたので、とにかく暑く水分補給と紫外線対策が必須でした。紫外線量は東京の7倍だそうです。日中のツアーなので、夏に行かれる方は特に対策されるのがいいかと思います。
ガイドさんのお話はどれも興味深く、島の歴史や住民の方々の暮らしを垣間見ることができ、八重山諸島のことをもっと知りたくなりました。貴重な体験ができました。ありがとうございました。

The round-trip bus transfer to the hotel was very smooth, allowing the tour to proceed seamlessly! Even though it was a tour, there was plenty of free time for exploration, which was great. We set sail on a boat and immediately headed to the mangrove cruise in Iriomote Island... The explanations were very easy to understand, and I was satisfied! After that, we moved by bus and rode water buffalo to Yufu! While enjoying the scenery from the water buffalo, we explored the botanical garden in Yufu and had delicious food! Afterward, we returned by bus and took a boat to Taketomi Island... The bus tour included a stroll on the star sand and sightseeing in Taketomi by water buffalo... everything was fantastic‼︎ On the way back, we adjusted the bus transfer schedule and explored the bustling streets of Ishigaki, where I was able to buy souvenirs! If I had to mention one thing, it would be that the remote islands don't have trash cans, so it's better to bring a bag for your trash. Thank you very much! (^^)
宿泊ホテルまでバスで往復送迎していただき、とってもスムーズにツアーを進めてくださいました!ツアーなのに、自由散策も多く、いい所取りでした。船で出航し、すぐに西表島のマングローブクルーズへ…説明もとっても分かりやすく、満足です!その後バスで移動し、水牛に乗って由布へ!ドラマの中に入り込んだような水牛からの景色を見ながら、由布では植物園散策に美味しいご飯!その後バスで戻り船で竹富島へ…バス観光で星砂散策し、水牛で竹富観光…どれをとっても最高でした‼︎帰りは一本バス送迎をずらし、石垣の繁華街を散策し、お土産も買って帰れました!一つあげるなら、離島はゴミ箱がなく、ゴミを持つための袋を持参した方がいいかなと思いました。ありがとうございました(^^)

I participated in this trip as a solo traveler. Although I felt a bit lonely since there were no other solo travelers, the continuous beautiful scenery made me forget about that. If I could be a little selfish, I would have liked to extend my stay on Iriomote Island and do a bit more sightseeing by bus. Conversely, I think half the time on Yufu Island would have been sufficient. I appreciated that on Taketomi Island, I could choose my return time. As a solo traveler, I was able to see everything quickly, so I had extra time. Overall, it was a wonderful tour that created lovely memories.
今回は一人旅で参加しました。
他に一人旅の人がいなくて少し寂しい気がしましたが、それを忘れる位の素敵な風景の連続でした。
しいてわがままを言わせていただければ、西表島の滞在時間を少しのばして、もう少しバスで観光したかったです。
逆に由布島は半分くらいの時間でも十分だったと思います。
竹富島は帰りの時間が選べるのは良かったと思いました。
一人旅だとあっという間に見て回れるので時間が余るくらいでした。
トータル的には素敵な思い出が出来たツアーでした。

I visited Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, and I rode a water buffalo twice. It was fun to cross the sea and ride around the islands while listening to the sanshin. The lunch bento was also a great value, allowing us to enjoy Okinawan ingredients. However, I was a bit disappointed that the mangrove tour lacked variety and felt very long and boring. That's why I gave it four stars.
西表島、由布島、竹富島、島巡りをし水牛には2度乗りました。海を渡ったり、島の中を三線を聞きながら乗ったりと楽しかったです。
お昼のお弁当も沖縄の食材を味わえお得感がありました。ただ少し残念だったのは、マングローブ遊覧には変化がなく、とても長く感じて退屈しました。
それで星4つにさせていただきました。

Since my flight was around 7 PM on the last day of my trip, I wanted to make the most of the half day and made a reservation two days prior. It happened to be a day of high tide, so we were able to take a route on the Nakama River cruise that usually cannot be accessed due to low water levels, allowing us to see mangroves that can only be found there. However, the water level was so high that the roots, which are a characteristic of mangroves, were almost submerged. I feel that experiencing the jungle-like atmosphere of the mangroves would be better during low tide. We sat on the right side of the boat, but since the boat traveled upstream along the left bank, I wished we had sat on the left side. (This also depends on the water level, so it can't be said definitively.)
On Yubu Island, we had 90 minutes of free time, including lunch. It takes less than an hour to walk around the entire island, so the time was sufficient. Since the return trip goes via Taketomi Island, if you have extra time, I recommend getting off at Taketomi Island to explore by rental bicycle or ox cart. You can ride an ox cart on Yubu Island, so personally, I think it's best to cycle around Kondoi Beach and Kaiji Beach.
Next time, I want to stay on Iriomote Island and enjoy more activities on the island.
旅行最終日が19時頃の飛行機だったので半日を有効活用したいと思い、二日前に予約を取りました。ちょうど大潮の日の満潮時だったので仲間川のクルーズでは普段水位が足りなくて通ることができないコースを通ることができ、そこでしか見られないマングローブを見ることができました。ただ、水位が高過ぎてマングローブの特徴である根っ子はほぼ水没していました。マングローブのジャングルらしさを味わうなら干潮時の方がいいような気がします。私達はボート右側に座ったのですが、ボートは左岸に沿って川を遡ったので左側に座れば良かったと思いました。(これも水位によって航行ルートが変わるので一概には言えませんが)
由布島では昼食を含めて90分の自由時間がありました。島全体は1時間もかからずに一周できるので時間は充分です。帰りは竹富島経由なので時間に余裕があるなら竹富島で降りて、レンタサイクルや牛車で島を観光することをお勧めします。由布島で牛車に乗れるので、個人的にはレンタサイクルでコンドイ浜やカイジ浜を回るのが良いかと。
次回は西表島に宿泊してもっと島内のアクティビティを楽しみたいです。

The mangrove tour at Nakama River was excellent. The guide's explanations were easy to understand. I became interested in the types of mangroves and their fascinating characteristics. I wanted to see a bit more of Iriomote Island, but the water buffalo cart ride to Yubu Island, lunch, and the stroll through the botanical garden were all packed with activities. Even after all that, we returned to the hotel before 3 PM, and I was able to spend the rest of the time meaningfully. I'll save the visit to Taketomi for next time.
仲間川のマングローブツアーがとても良かったです。ガイドのお姉さんの説明も分かりやすい。マングローブの種類や不思議な性質に興味が湧きました。
西表島をもう少し見たかったですが、由布島への水牛車の渡し、ランチ、植物園散策と盛りだくさん。それだけ回ってホテルに戻ってもまだ15時前。その後の時間も有意義に過ごせました。竹富時は次回のお楽しみにしておきます。

First, we were able to explore the mangroves by boat and take our time with photos (the guide was also very attentive). The water buffalo cart was a slow-paced ride, allowing us to enjoy sightseeing at a leisurely pace. On the way back, we returned a bit faster with a different guide, but it was no problem since it was the return trip.
Finally, on Taketomi Island, we rode bicycles using a map. I had selected places to visit in advance online, so we were able to explore with plenty of time to spare.
Additionally, lunch was prepared with local ingredients, which was satisfying. It’s a tour that you can enjoy at a relaxed pace throughout the day, even for someone over 60...
まずは、ボートで「マングローブ」をいろいろ散策でき、
写真もゆっくり取れました(ガイドも丁寧です)。
水牛車は、ゆっくりタイプに乗車でき、本当にのんびり観光できました。
帰りは、別の方で「少し、急ぎめでの戻り」でした。帰りなので問題無し。
最後の竹富島では、地図を頼りに「自転車で回りました」
事前に、ネットで見たいところを選択しておきましたので、
時間に余裕を持って回れました。
なお、お昼も地元の食材を準備頂き、満足した。
一日ゆっくり楽しめるツアーです。60過ぎのおばさんにでも、、、

I picked up my ticket at the counter and headed to the boarding area. Since the seats are unreserved, it's a good idea to arrive early to get a nice spot.
On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed a 30-minute mangrove cruise. The guide provided detailed explanations about the plants and animals.
We traveled to Yubu Island by water buffalo cart. The guide's shamisen was very soothing.
Lunch was a bento at a restaurant, followed by free time for exploration. It was nice to take it slow.
On Taketomi Island, we immediately went on a bus tour to see the star sand and other attractions.
It was a very hot day, so I was glad I didn't choose to ride a bicycle.
After that, we enjoyed a water buffalo cart tour on Taketomi Island, which included photo opportunities.

The weather was cloudy from the morning. First, we were given a booklet with all the tickets for the itinerary. We were with various tour groups. The journey to Iriomote Island was quite long. We transferred to a bus and headed to the cruise ship terminal. The driver and guide was very good at speaking! After switching to the cruise ship, we observed the mangroves. Having done quite a few guided river cruises in Southeast Asia, I wasn't particularly impressed. We then transferred to another bus to go to the water buffalo cart station. The water buffalo cart ride while listening to Yaeyama folk songs was nice! The Okinawan cuisine at Yubu Island, accompanied by explanations, was delicious! After the meal, we took a commemorative photo with the water buffalo "Rui-kun"! I wanted the photo data and purchased two for 2500 yen. You can quickly download the data with a QR code. Then, there was a thunderstorm! During that time, we enjoyed Yubu Island coffee and cake at the Yubu Island tea house. The coffee was very tasty with a slight acidity. It seems to be a daily blend. When the rain lightened up, we returned to Iriomote Island by water buffalo cart, switched buses to go to the port, and took a boat to Taketomi Island. We took another bus and visited two beaches. At the much-anticipated Hoshizuna Beach, the rain stopped, but we couldn't find any star sand... After that, we enjoyed a guided tour of Taketomi while listening to Yaeyama folk songs on the water buffalo cart. After finishing, we took a commemorative photo. The data costs from 1500 yen. With only 20 minutes left, we went up to the observation building, bought ice cream at an ice cream shop, and ran around—then took the bus back to the port to return... I wish they could shorten the cruise time and give us an additional 30 minutes for sightseeing on Taketomi Island. It was quite a hassle to tear off and present tickets for every part of the itinerary. I would prefer a system where you just show a printed wristband with the course number, like at an amusement park.
朝から曇りのお天気でした。最初に全ての行程のチケット綴りが渡されます。
色々なツアーの方と一緒でした。西表島までは結構長かったです。バスに乗り換え、クルーズ船乗り場まで行きます。運転手兼ガイドさんが喋りが上手いです!クルーズ船に乗り換え、マングローブ見学。東南アジアあちこちで、手漕ぎ船ガイド付きリバークルーズを、かなりしたので、イマイチ感動は無かったです。またバスに乗り換え水牛車乗り場まで行きます。八重山民謡を聴きながらの水牛車は良かったです!由布島について、説明付きの沖縄料理も美味しかったです!食後に水牛「るいくん」と記念撮影!写真データが欲しくて2枚2500円購入しました。QRコードですぐにテータ取り込めます。そこで雷雨のスコール!!その間、由布島茶屋で由布島コーヒーとケーキをいただきました。少し酸味のあるとても美味しいコーヒーでした。日替わりブレンドだそうです。小雨になるころにまた水牛車で西表島に帰り、バスに乗り替え港へ行き船で竹富島まで行きます。またバスに乗り2つ浜を回りました。楽しみの星砂浜で雨が上がりましたが、星砂は見つからず・・・。その後、水牛車にてガイドと八重山民謡を聴き竹富観光。終了後記念撮影。データーは、1500円~。
残り時間20分で展望ビルに上り、アイスの商店でアイス購入し、走り回り~またバスで港へ行き船で帰港・・・。クルーズ時間を短くするかして竹富島観光時間を、あと30分は取って欲しい。全ての行程でチケットを切り取り、出すのが大変でした。遊園地の腕輪のようにコース番号印刷をはめれば見せるだけでOKみたいなものを使ってほしいです。

1: I went to see the mangroves in Amami Oshima first, and this time the mangroves were quite disappointing. I do not recommend it. During the hour-long cruise, I listened to music and did other things. I will upload photos on social media, as a reality check.
2: Regarding the ox cart, I was informed by the local staff that moving to a different seat (especially towards the back) puts significant strain on the ox's neck, which has led to instances of fainting and even life-threatening situations in the past. It would have been better if this information had been provided during the adjustment phase when we were confirming our seating positions before departure, but this discussion happened during the return trip. I found it very stressful to receive a stern warning without prior explanation during the outbound trip when we were fixing our seats. I will never visit this island again. It was a very unpleasant experience, and I will not support it.
3: Additionally, the tour did not include the "2022 shuttle bus timetable" until I pointed it out. It was still showing the expired link from early 2021. The management staff seems to be involved with both the tour company and the matching site. I couldn't understand the operational awareness of the management staff.
4: I received a phone call the day before the tour to inform me of the meeting time (the same applies to other tours), but it was frustrating that, despite the application being online, the follow-up was done via phone. If it's an IP call, it incurs charges, and during my trip to Okinawa, I was busy the day before and in remote areas with poor reception (which I experienced). I strongly request improvements to the operational system. Essentially, the goal is to ensure mutual recognition of the meeting time and place. If so, it would be sufficient to transition to a screen where we can click through using the email address we used for the application, right? While developing an app or a large-scale system can be costly, this kind of task could be handled by a small team in a short time. I applied for two tours during my trip to Okinawa, but considering the shortcomings of the current system, I will not be repeating. Please enhance IT knowledge, update the latest information, and reconsider your marketing strategies.
Based on the reasons and experiences above, I believe it would be better to arrange individual options myself rather than relying on the tour application to avoid dissatisfaction.
1:奄美大島のマングローブを先に見に行っていると、今回のマングローブはかなりのガッカリレベル。おすすめはしない。
約一時間の遊覧中、音楽聴いて別のことしてました。
SNS等で写真はアップします。実態として。
2:牛車では、座っている場所を移動(特に後方)すると牛の首に強度の負荷が生じ、気絶や生命につながる事案が過去幾度も発生したため現地担当者は懸念している旨説明がありました。
牛車がまだ出発前の段階で各自の席位置を確定させる調整段階の時に上記話があればよかったのですが、この話は帰りの牛車時でした。行きの牛車時に説明なく(かつ出発前の席固定調整時)に強い口調で注意だけされた私には非常にストレスフルでした。
二度とこの島へは行きません。非常に不快な思いでです。支援もしません。
3:また本ツアーは「2022送迎バス時刻表」を私が指摘するまで掲載がありませんでした。リンク期限切れの2021年前半掲載のままでした。
管理担当者はツアー会社側と本仲介(マッチングサイト)両者と推測されます。管理担当者の運用意識が私にはわかりかねました。
4:ツアー前日に電話がかかってきてその際に集合時間を案内されますが(他ツアーも同じく)申し込みがWebなのにその後アナログ対応で電話とは。。。IP電話だと電話代発生しますし沖縄旅行だと前日もバタバタしていたり離島や電波の悪い場所にいたり(私はそうでした)。運用システムの改善を強く要望します。
要は、目的が「集合時間、場所相互認識一致」ですよね。
なら申し込みに使用したメールアドレスからそのような画面へうつってクリックするなりすれば目的は果たせますよね?
アプリや大掛かりなシステム開発では費用がかさむこともありますが
この程度のものなら短時間少人数で対応できるわけです。
今回沖縄旅行で2つのツアーを申し込みましたが、現システムの悪さを踏まえてもリピートはありません。
IT知識向上と最新情報のブラッシュアップ、マーケティングを再度見直してください。
上記理由と体験から、ツアー申し込みよりも個別オプションを自分で手配した方が不満回避になると思いました。

The day after Okinawa entered the rainy season, I went to Ishigaki Island, and the next morning, a hotel shuttle picked me up to join a tour. The boat to Iriomote Island was quite rocky due to strong winds, which was a bit scary. I had imagined the mangrove cruise on Iriomote Island to be like a jungle, so I was a little disappointed that the river was wide. However, it was a fun tour as I finally got to ride a water buffalo cart, which I had been looking forward to.

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。

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。

We went with our 5 and 3-year-old children, and the experience was so packed that we enjoyed it without wasting any time. I would like to go again next time.
5歳3歳の子連れで行きました、1日で凝縮したような内容なんで無駄な時間なく楽しめました。
また行く時はお願いしたいです

I received my ticket and boarded the boat. It was as smooth as a production line. The lunch on Yufu Island was even more delicious than I expected! I had a great time. I think it was more cost-effective than arranging everything individually.
チケットを渡され、船に乗ります。流れ作業のようにスムーズでした。由布島での昼食も予想以上に美味しかったです!とても楽しかったです。
普通に個人で手配して回るよりコスパがいいと思いました。

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。

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。

The transfers between the ferry and bus were very smooth, allowing me to enjoy the experience without any stress. The staff were also very kind. I had a great time even on my own. Next time I visit Ishigaki, I would like to book a tour with the same tour company.
船やバスの乗り換え時などとてもスムーズで、ストレスなく楽しめました。また、スタッフさんたちもとても親切でした。一人でも十分楽しめました。次回石垣を訪れた際は、同じツアー会社さんのツアーに申し込みたいと思います。

The day of the experience, it rained on and off throughout the day. Still, the tour was very enjoyable and satisfying!
In the mangroves of Iriomote Island, the rain added to the atmosphere, and I was overwhelmed by the beauty of nature's formations!
On Yubu Island, we leisurely crossed the path connecting Iriomote Island and Yubu Island, which was filled with seawater, while being pulled by a water buffalo cart. Along the way, our guide played the sanshin, allowing us to enjoy a relaxed Okinawan atmosphere! We had lunch at a botanical garden and were able to taste Okinawan cuisine!
On the final stop at Taketomi Island, we rode in a water buffalo cart and leisurely explored the village while listening to the sanshin! We could also rent bicycles to visit famous spots around the island!
Before I knew it, it was already time to head back, and I felt like there was still so much more to experience!
*When traveling around each island, the distances between locations can be significant, so it might be more efficient to join a tour or similar activities.*
体験した日は、1日を通して雨が降ったり止んだりでした。
それでも、ツアーはとても楽しく満足のいく内容でした!
西表島のマングローブでは、雨の影響でとても雰囲気が出ており、自然が織りなす造形美に圧倒されます!
由布島では、海水が入ってくる西表島と由布島を結ぶ道を水牛に牛車を引っ張ってもらい島へとのんびり渡りました。
道中、ガイドの方が三線を弾いてくださり沖縄らしいのんびりとした時間を過ごせます!
植物園にてお昼を食べ、沖縄料理を味わう事が出来ます!
最後の竹富島でも、水牛車に乗り、三線を聴きながらのんびり集落を見て回れます!
自転車を借りて島内の有名どころも見て回る事が出来ます!
気づけばあっという間に帰る時間となりまだまだ足りないくらいでした!
※各島内を回る時は1箇所1箇所距離があるため、ツアーなどに参加して回った方が効率がよいかもしれません。

Overall, I enjoyed a relaxed plan. The water buffalo took their time resting and moving around, which added to the leisurely atmosphere and was just wonderful! The boat tour on the Nakagawa River was enjoyable with explanations about the mangroves. It was easy to understand and increased my awareness of the surroundings. Taketomi Island has a distinct Okinawan feel, and the streets are beautiful! Since we need to be mindful not to disturb the residents, we must pay attention to manners. It rained a little, but that added to the charm. However, I heard that when it's sunny, the sky reflects beautifully in the sea on the way to Yufu Island, so I want to try again. Since it's a subtropical climate, insect repellent is a must.
全体的にゆったりプランで楽しめました。水牛が気分で休んだり、動いたり、そういう所も含めてゆるやかでゆったりしていて、最高でした!
仲間川の遊覧は、マングローブの解説など楽しめました。わかりやすくて、目の付け所が増えました。竹富島は沖縄感があって、街並みがステキ!住人に迷惑をかけるので、マナーに気をつけないといけないです。少し雨が降っていましたが、それもまた趣あって良かったです。でも晴れたら由布島に渡るまでの海に空が映って綺麗とのことだったので、またリベンジしたいです。亜熱帯気候なので、虫除け必須です。

I wanted to see mangroves, ride a water buffalo cart, and enjoy the coast, and my requests were fulfilled. The mangrove cruise departed from the port and headed towards the estuary, which was nice. I didn't have high expectations for lunch on Yubu Island, but it used a lot of local ingredients and was better than I expected. On Taketomi Island, I wanted to go to Kaiji Beach, so I chose a rental bicycle course. I was satisfied to find star sand. The distance was longer than I thought, so renting a bicycle was the right choice, but I also wished I could have ridden a water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island. Next time, I will go for a water buffalo cart ride on Taketomi Island.
マングローブ見たいし、水牛車にも乗りたい、海岸も満喫したいという要望を満たせました。
マングローブクルーズが港から乗船して河口に向かいましたが、それも良かったです。
由布島の昼食はあまり期待していなかったのですが、島の食材を多用していて予想以上に良かったです。
竹富島ではカイジ浜まで行きたくてレンタサイクルコースにしました。星の砂も見つけられて満足でした。思ったより距離があったのでレンタサイクルで正解でしたが、竹富島でも水牛車乗りたかったなと思いました。
次は竹富島の水牛車乗りにいきます。
