The waves were high and the ferry was really rocky because it was right after the typhoon! All three islands were great! I especially loved the relaxed atmosphere of Taketomi Island. It's a shame that if the weather had been better, I could have taken even more beautiful photos...
台風直後だったので波が高くてフェリーの揺れがすごかった!!
3島は全てよかったです!!特に竹富島はのんびりした空気がすごく好きです。お天気がよければもっと、素敵な写真がとれたのに残念でした、、、

On the cruise around Iriomote Island, the female captain was skilled in both guiding and maneuvering the boat, providing detailed explanations about the mangroves that were very easy to understand. The bus driver also gave us a tour of the island, which allowed us to hear more about Iriomote than we had expected. We were fortunate to see the adorable sight of a mother water buffalo and her newborn calf, as it coincided with the calving season. The water buffalo pulling the cart was very gentle and smart, making us feel a bit guilty for having it carry our weight. Although it was a short time, we enjoyed a relaxing experience with the sound of the sanshin and the boatman's singing. If I had to say something, there were many explanations about the Iriomote wildcat, so I wished I could have seen a specimen or photos somewhere.
In the afternoon on Taketomi Island, we initially planned to only rent bicycles and not ride the water buffalo cart. However, as soon as we arrived at the Taketomi Island Tourist Center, a female employee quickly asked, "What about the water buffalo? Aren't you riding? Bicycles? Fill this out!" I was confused about where to write what, and as I hesitated, she let out a big sigh and left the area, glaring at us from a distance. We were left unattended, but later, another employee helped us, and we were able to rent bicycles. However, the childish behavior we encountered right after arriving on Taketomi Island ruined the excitement we had been looking forward to. It was frustrating to see an employee who seemed to be annoyed when tourists didn't follow the routine they expected. To be frank, I believe that the tourism and hospitality industry is not suited for such individuals. If they want to work at their own pace, they should choose a desk job at home. In hindsight, I even wish I had scolded her on the spot for her rude behavior. The first employee at the Taketomi Island Tourist Center would likely realize this was about her if she saw it.
While the response from the other employees was good, it was disappointing that just one person left a negative impression. Of course, Taketomi Island itself was a wonderful place, so when I visit again, I hope to enjoy my trip without relying on the Taketomi Island Tourist Center.
西表島のクルーズでは女性の船長さんでガイドも操縦も上手、マングローブを詳しく説明してくれてとても分かりやすかった。送迎バスのドライバーさんも島内の案内をしてくれるので思っていた以上に西表島の話しを聞くことができて良かったと思う。由布島の水牛もちょうど子牛が生まれた時期と重なり可愛らしい親子の姿を見せてもらうことも出来ました。水牛車を引く水牛はとても大人しくお利口さんで重たい私達を運んでもらうのが申し訳なくなるほど。短い時間でしたが三線と船頭さん?の歌声でのんびりした時間を楽しむことが出来ました。しいて言えば西表やまねこの説明が沢山あったのでどこかで剥製や写真などでも見てみたかった。
午後の竹富島では水牛車には乗らずレンタサイクルのみの予定でしたが、到着後竹富島観光センターに着くなり女性の従業員が水牛は?乗らないの?自転車?これに記入して!と矢次早に言われどこに何を書いて良いのか分からずに戸惑っていると「はぁーっ」と大きなため息をつかれその場を離れていき離れたところからからこちらの様子を伺いを睨みつける始末。放置された私達でしたがその後他の従業員さんが対応して下さり無事に自転車を借りることができたのですが、竹富島到着後すぐにこのような子供じみた対応をされ楽しみにしていた気分は台無しにされました。暑い中毎日同じルーティン作業で観光客が思った通りに動かないと面倒になり不貞腐れる従業員。はっきり言わせてもらいますが観光業、接客業は向いていない。自分のペースで仕事をしたいのならデスクと向き合う在宅の仕事を選んだら?と言いたい。というか今となればその場で叱り飛ばしてやれば良かったとさえ思うほど腹の立つ対応だった。竹富島観光センターの最初に担当した従業員がこれを見たら自分の事だと察しが着くでしょう。
他の従業員さんの対応は良かっただけにたったその1人のせいで残念な思いが残ってしまった。
もちろん竹富島自体はとても素敵な所でしたので次回訪れる時は竹富島観光センターにはお世話にならず楽しめる旅にしたいと思います。

The wind was strong, but it was a beautiful sunny day, perfect for a tour! I chose the glass-bottom boat and bus sightseeing plan on Taketomi Island, and the bus driver was really great—he took photos for us, showed us how to find star sand, and told us about power spots. I was torn between this plan and cycling when I made the reservation, but choosing this plan was absolutely the right decision! I'm sure if I had chosen cycling, I would have been drenched in sweat (laughs). The bus was cool and perfect! We saw two families of wild boars in the mangroves, and the water buffalo was fun too. I had a wonderful time. Thank you!
風が強かったけど晴天でツアー日和でした!
竹富島ではグラスボードとバス観光プランを選択したのですが、バスの運転手さんが写真を撮ってくれたり、星の砂の見つけ方や、パワースポットを教えてくれたりとすごく良い対応をしてくださったので、予約時にサイクリングと悩みましたがこちらのプランにして大大大正解でした!
きっとサイクリングを選択していたら汗だくでやばかったはず(笑)バス、涼しくて最高!
マングローブでは猪の親子が2組も見れたし、水牛も楽しいし、とても素敵な時間を過ごす事が出来ました。ありがとうございました!

We chose this tour for our three-generation family trip, as my parents didn't want to engage in active activities like snorkeling. Although it wasn't sunny due to the day after the typhoon, the guides for the mangrove cruise, the bus, and the water buffalo cart were all very skilled at storytelling, making the sightseeing enjoyable.
At Yubu Island, we had 90 minutes of free time, which included a pre-prepared traditional lunch. If the meal takes a while, I think 90 minutes might be a bit short (we couldn't fully explore the island). After this, we returned to Iriomote Island by water buffalo cart for the second time, and then took a boat back to Ishigaki Port to conclude the tour.
My child and I felt a bit unsatisfied due to the lack of activities in the sea, but my parents said, "Since there isn't much walking, this tour is just right for older people." I think it would be enjoyable for elderly individuals or families with small babies.
親子3世代の旅行で、かつ両親はシュノーケルなどアクティブなことはしたくないということだったので、こちらのツアーを選びました。
台風が過ぎた翌日ということで、晴天にはなりませんでしたが、マングローブクルーズのガイドさん、バスのガイドさん、水牛車のガイドさん、皆さんお話が流れるように上手で、楽しく観光ができました。
由布島では90分間、予め用意された御膳式のお弁当ランチを含んだ自由時間となります。食事に時間がかかってしまう場合は、90分はちょっと短いかなと思います(島内観光はまわり切れませんでした)。
この後、2度目の水牛車で西表島へ戻ってから、船で石垣港に戻って終了となります。
私と子どもは海に入るアクティビティがないので少し物足りなさを感じましたが、両親は「徒歩移動もあまりないから年寄りにはちょうどよいツアーだわ」と言っていました。お年を召した方や小さな赤ちゃん連れには楽しめるのではないでしょうか。

Due to the typhoon, it was cloudy and rainy. The morning cruise around Iriomote Island was cloudy. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the mangrove roots due to high tide. We crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo during high tide as well. After that, it rained on Taketomi Island. During a brief break in the rain, we cycled to Kaiji Beach. Since we were short on time, we couldn't search for star sand and had a busy cycling experience. The weather really affects the islands. Next time, I want to go when it's sunny!
台風の影響で曇り、雨でした。
午前中の西表島のクルーズは曇り。満潮でマングローブの根っこは見られず、残念でした。
由布島も満潮の中、水牛で渡りました。
その後の竹富島は雨。雨がやんだちょっとの間にカイジ浜までサイクリング。時間に限りがあったので、星の砂は探せず大忙しのサイクリングでした。
島は、天気に左右されますね。今度は、晴れの時に行きたいです!

I was able to efficiently visit Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island in one day, which was great. The weather was nice, so cycling around the islands felt refreshing and enjoyable. The water buffalo were cute and smart, and I enjoyed leisurely watching the village on Taketomi Island, which gave me a sense of being in a different world. It might be a bit more expensive than going individually, but with the hotel pick-up service, it was very efficient and satisfying. The staff were also kind. Actually, I left something at the Taketomi Island tourist center, but when I contacted them, they promptly sent it to me by mail. Thank you very much.
西表島、由布島、竹富島を1日で効率よく回る事ができて、とても良かったです。良い気候だったので自転車で島内を回るのは気持ち良く楽しかったです、水牛も可愛くて賢くのんびりと竹富島の集落を眺めて、非日常感を楽しめました。個人で行くより割高かもしれませんがホテル送迎もあるので、とても効率よく満足でした。スタッフの方も親切でした。実は竹富島の観光センターに忘れ物をしたのですが、連絡をしたらすぐに郵送してくださいました、ありがとうございました。

This time, we participated with two families. There were a total of eight people: two sixth graders, one six-year-old, and one five-year-old. First, we took a mangrove cruise in Iriomote Island. It was a bit cloudy, but the fresh air and beautiful scenery were amazing. However, the sixth graders seemed a bit unsatisfied as they wanted to go canoeing. Next, we crossed to Yubu Island by water buffalo cart. Seeing the water buffalo up close was impressive, and the kids were very satisfied. The lunch bento was also delicious. Be sure to visit the glass-bottom boat in Taketomi Island! The cobalt blue sea was filled with many fish, creating a dreamlike scene.
今回は2家族で参加しました。小学校6年生が2人と6歳が1人と5歳が1人の合計8人です。まずは西表島のマングローブクルーズ少し曇っていましたが良い空気といい景色で最高でした。ただ6年生はカヌーがやりたかったようで物足りなそうでした。次に由布島に水牛車で渡りました。間近でみた水牛は大迫力で子供も大満足でした。お昼のお弁当も美味しかったです。竹富島のグラスボートは是非行って下さい!コバルトブルーの海の中にお魚が沢山泳いでて夢のような景色でした。

If you think you're going to a remote island for the first time, it might be nice to try visiting three islands as a test. Since time is tight, if you feel like you didn't have enough time on any island, you can always go back separately instead of on a tour.
It was unfortunate that the weather was bad, but overall, it was a good experience.
初めて離島にいくと思うならお試しで3つ回れるのはいいのかもしれない。
時間がキツキツなので足りないと思う島はツアーではなく別で改めて行けばよし。

Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy sightseeing without being weighed down. It's a tour, but it also offers a decent amount of freedom, so I highly recommend it!

Iriomote… While riding the bus, it passes by so quickly that it's easy to miss. I understand it must be difficult to drive, but I wish there had been an explanation a little earlier so we could see it at the right moment. The mangrove tour was a bit cold due to the season, but it was nice to take our time.
Yubu Island… The working cows were adorable. They take proper breaks, have two days off a week, and even understand when it's the last ferry, which makes them speed up when they walk. It was heartwarming to see that they are just like humans. The affection from each guide was evident, and I could feel the bond with the cows.
The child who accompanied me mentioned feeling sorry for the cows, but when I explained that they are part of a tourism resource that helps pay for their food, they understood and it became a good lesson in social studies.
Although the tide was mostly out and it wasn't exactly as I imagined walking in the sea, I suppose that's just a natural phenomenon.
Taketomi… There was a bus waiting in a different location than what was explained at the tour desk, but thanks to local coordination, everything turned out fine. However, it was unfortunate that my adherence to the instructions made everyone else wait. The tour desk should have communicated that the pattern changes when there are many participants. After all, customers can't know in advance if there will be a large number of participants.
西表…バスに乗っている間、サッと通りすぎるため見落としてしまう。運転しながらで大変と思うが少し前で説明して間もなく見えてくるというタイミングであってほしかった。マングローブ周遊は季節がら寒かったがゆっくりできて良かった。
由布島…お仕事している牛さんがかわいかった。ちゃんと休憩も取って週休2日、早退、病欠もあり、最終便だと牛さんが理解していて嬉しくて歩くスピードが早まるとか聞くと人間と同じだな~と微笑ましかった。それぞれの先導さんの愛情が伝わり牛さんとの絆が感じられた。
同行した子どもは、牛さんがかわいそうだと話していたが、こうして観光資源になっていることで、牛さんのご飯代につながっていることを知らせると納得してくれ社会勉強にもなった。
ほぼ潮が引いており海の中を歩くというイメージ通りというわけではなかったが、こればかりは自然現象なのでしょうがない。
竹富…ツアーデスクで説明を受けた場所と違うところにバスが待っており現地の連携で事なきを得たが、忠実に守ったがゆえに他の皆さんをお待たせしてしまったのが残念。参加者が多い場合はパターンが変わるということがツアーデスクと周知徹底していなかった。そもそも参加者が多いかもお客にはわからないこと。

The hotel provided a shuttle service, which was very convenient! The main purpose of my visit was to ride a water buffalo from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island. The guide sang Okinawan songs on the sanshin, making it a dreamy escape from reality! On the last stop at Taketomi Island, we were also guided around the island by water buffalo, and I was very satisfied with the double water buffalo experience.
For the return boat, I could choose between the 4 PM and 5 PM departures on the spot, so after getting off the water buffalo, we decided to go to Kaiji Beach, which was also convenient and relaxed! If I could have applied for a rental bicycle right there, I might have been able to explore a bit more.
It was a very meaningful day!

The mangroves on Iriomote Island are quite rare, so I recommend visiting. To get to Yubu Island, you travel back and forth on a water buffalo cart, and they enhance the experience with stories and performances on the sanshin. After having lunch and seeing the butterfly garden and Manta Beach, we ran out of time. On Taketomi Island, we did some sightseeing with a glass-bottom boat and a water buffalo cart, but we couldn't visit places like Hoshi no Suna Beach, which disappointed the kids. I wish we had more free time on Taketomi Island. Although we had various experiences arranged for us, the schedule was quite packed, so I think it's good to carefully consider which tour to choose.
Lastly, regarding lunch, the children's meal was supposed to be chosen on-site, but we were guided to a prepared table, and in the end, the child could hardly eat anything, and we ended up just paying for it. I did check with the staff, but they seemed busy, so I think it was a mistake.
西表島のマングローブは中々見られないのでお勧めです。由布島へは水牛車に引かれて往復しますが、お話や三線の演奏があったりと気分を盛り上げてくださいます。お昼を食べて蝶々園とマンタの浜を見たら時間切れでした。竹富島ではグラスボードと水牛車での島内観光でしたが、星の砂の浜等には行かれず、子供が残念がっていました。せめて竹富島は自由時間が欲しかったかなー。おまかせで色々な体験ができましたが、かなり詰め込んだ日程ですので、どのツアーにするのか吟味するのが良いと思います。
最後に昼食ですが、子供の食事は1人分現地で選ぶ事になっていましたが、用意された席へ案内され、結局子供はほとんど食べられず、料金だけ支払うことになりました。係りの方には確認をしたのですが、忙しそうでしたので間違えたのだと思います。

Although the weather was unfortunately bad on the day I participated, I was able to spend a very fulfilling day as the title suggests. I was able to see beautiful rainbows multiple times on the mangrove river, and the guide's explanations were thorough, allowing me to appreciate the mangroves better! When we crossed to the island on the cattle, the local guide provided detailed explanations and even sang with a shamisen, making for a wonderful experience. My favorite part was Taketomi Island! The scenery was just as I had seen in guidebooks, and it was lovely! Riding around on a bicycle allowed me to feel the pleasant breeze, creating the best memories! Next time, I want to try again on a day with good weather!
参加した日はあいにくの天気でしたがタイトル通りとっても濃い1日を過ごすことができました。マングローブの川ではきれいな虹を何度も見ることができ、ガイドの方の説明も丁寧で理解しながらマングローブを見ることができました!また牛さんで島渡りをした際も現地のガイドさんが細かい説明や三味線で歌を歌ってくださり、素敵な体験をすることができました。私が一番気に入ったのは竹富島でした!ガイドブックで見たような景色が広がり、素敵でした!自転車で巡った地ため、心地よい風を感じることができ、最高の思い出になりました!今度は天気が良い日に再チャレンジしてみたいと思います!

I was torn between visiting three or four islands, but reducing it to three turned out to be the right choice as it gave us a bit more time. The system of having staff at each destination detach the vouchers was easy to understand, and it felt less restrictive compared to tours that require constant group participation. The lunch was surprisingly delicious, and we were blessed with good weather, making for a fun day. I think it would be quite difficult to manage such an efficient itinerary on my own, so I'm glad I participated.
3島か4島かで迷いましたが、1つ減らした事で時間にややゆとりが生まれ正解でした。行く先々で待つスタッフにバウチャーを切り離して貰うシステムは分かり易く、常にグループ行動を求められるツアーとは違うので拘束感が薄かったのも良かったです。昼食も予想以上に美味しく、天気にも恵まれて楽しい日になりました。個人手配では中々ここまで効率良く周るのは難しいと思われ、参加して良かったです。

Dear Neko,
Thank you very much for participating in the Ishigaki Island Dream Tour's remote island tour.
Upon reviewing your feedback, we confirmed with the local staff that, as you pointed out, their response did not meet your expectations, which caused you to feel uncomfortable. We sincerely apologize for this.
We have promptly communicated your feedback to the person in charge at the Taketomi Tourist Center, emphasizing the importance of providing service from the customer's perspective. We have received the following responses regarding improvements:
- Ensuring thorough sharing of handover details among reception staff.
- Retraining employees. (Currently, we do not have fixed roles, and there are days when water buffalo drivers and shuttle drivers also handle reception, leading to inconsistencies in service. We will discuss whether there were any issues in the reception process and work on improvements.)
Moving forward, we will strive to enhance our services in cooperation with each remote island facility to ensure that customers who participate in our tours can enjoy and be satisfied with the islands of Yaeyama.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
