All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

I was told to wear clothes that could get dirty while canoeing and trekking, but I wasn't very prepared, so I borrowed a windbreaker. It was very helpful to be able to borrow shoes and a bag as well.
We started with canoeing. You can choose between a single or double canoe. It was fun to experience canoeing slowly while enjoying the scenery.
The trekking was harder than I expected, feeling like we were climbing rocky mountains, but our guide made it enjoyable by sharing interesting stories about Iriomote Island, which made the climb fun. The view from the top was amazing!
For lunch, I had Yaeyama soba, which was very delicious.
After that, we headed to the waterfall basin. The journey there was quite tough, but the waterfall basin was incredibly impressive!
There are no restrooms during the trekking, so you need to take care of that beforehand, but at the waterfall basin, the guide provided a portable toilet. Although it was a portable toilet, there was a proper place to use it, so it was safe for women.
It was an experience that I was completely satisfied with! I would love to participate again! 😊

カヌーとトレッキングで汚れてもいい服装とのことでしたが、あまり用意出来てなかったのでウィンドブレーカーをお借りしました。靴と鞄を借りれるのはとても助かりました。
初めはカヌーでの移動です。カヌーは1人乗りか2人乗りを選べます。景色を見ながらゆっくりカヌー体験出来るので楽しいです。
トレッキングは思っていたよりもハードで岩山を登っていく感じでしたが、ガイドさんが楽しく西表島のお話をしながら登ってくれたので楽しく登ることが出来ました。上からの景色は最高です！
お昼は八重山そばを頂きましたが、とても美味しかったです。
その後滝壺に向かいました。ここに行くまでもかなりハードでしたが、滝壺はすごい迫力でした！
トレッキング中はトイレがないので事前に済ませないといけませんが、滝壺ではガイドさんが用意してくれた簡易トイレがあります。簡易トイレを用いてにはなりますが、ちゃんとトイレをする場所もあるので女性でも安心です。
どれも大満足の体験でした！また参加したいです(^^)

It was a storm strong enough to cancel boats, but around 7:30 AM, I received a call from the staff confirming that the tour would proceed, and I was able to participate safely. The itinerary changed from the original plan to canoeing to the waterfall and trekking in the limestone caves. There was also a refund due to the course change. The staff were very kind and explained the names and characteristics of the plants in an easy-to-understand manner. By participating in the tour, I gained a better understanding of Iriomote Island. Although it was stormy outside, once we entered the mangroves, I didn't feel the wind at all; it was calm and enjoyable. The rain wasn't too bothersome either, but next time I want to visit during the dry season and try other courses.

船が欠航するほどの暴風でしたが、7時30分ごろにスタッフから催行の電話があり、無事ツアーに参加することができました。当初の予定から変わり、滝までのカヌーと鍾乳洞のトレッキングとなりました。コース変更に伴い返金もありました。スタッフの方もとても親切で、一つ一つ植物の名前や特徴をわかりやすく教えてくれました。ツアーに参加することで、西表島のことがよくわかるようになりました。また、外は暴風でしたが、マングローブの中に入ると全く風を感じず、穏やかで楽しむことができました。雨もそこまで気にならなかったですが、次は乾季にを訪れて、他のコースにも挑戦したいです。

Although it was a short time, I was able to enter the jungle and encounter snakes and coconut crabs! With a pen-shaped light in hand, I descended a simple slope in the jungle towards the sea. I think searching for coconut crabs while being guided by our guide about the plants and animals of Iriomote Island is a unique activity of the island. The baby gecko was incredibly cute! It was a pity that I couldn't see the stars since December is the rainy season, which tends to have many cloudy and rainy days.

短い時間ですが、ジャングルの中に入り込みヘビやヤシガニと遭遇できました！
ペン型ライトを持って、ジャングルの簡単な坂道を下りながら、海を目指します。ガイドさんに西表島の草木や動物について案内頂きながら皆んなでヤシガニを探すのは西表島ならではのアクティビティだと思います。ヤモリの赤ちゃんがとっても可愛かったです！
12月は雨季のため、曇りと雨が多いシーズンとの事で星が見えなかったのは残念でした。

The guide's extensive knowledge and the camp meals were amazing! The trekking course was tougher than I expected, but it was fun!

ガイドさんの豊富な知識、キャンプ飯最高でした！思ったよりきついトレッキングコースでしたが楽しかったです！

Fortunately, we were blessed with good weather and had a wonderful time under the perfect starry sky. Also, our guide Diego's cheerful and friendly personality really enhanced the night tour. Thank you for the lovely time!

幸い天気に恵まれ、満点の星座の中、素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。
また、ガイドのジエゴさんの明るく気さくなキャラがナイトツアーを盛り上げてくれました。
素敵な時間をありがとうございます！

I went by canoe to the foot of the mountain and trekked to Pinai Sara Falls. Since it had rained the day before, the water flow of the falls was great, and it was sunny on the day of our visit, so we were able to see a rainbow. Our guide, Eri, explained the plants and creatures we could see in the mountains and taught us many other things, which made it very enjoyable. The lunch was delicious and made me happy! Thank you very much.

カヌーで山のふもとまで行き、トレッキングをしてピナイサーラの滝まで行きました。前の日が雨だったので滝の水量も良く、当日は晴れていたので、虹も見ることができました。ガイドのえりさんも山で見ることのできる植物や生物の説明までしてくださり、他にもいろんなことを教えてくださり、とても楽しかったです。お弁当もおいしく幸せでした！ありがとうございました。

We were blessed with the best weather, making it truly an unforgettable and wonderful memory! The instructor was just the right distance in his approach, knowledgeable, and bright, making it a fun experience.

By chance, we were slightly out of sync with the other tour guests, allowing us to enjoy the river and beautiful scenery all to ourselves.

The scenery and air are simply the best. I felt that trekking in the peak of summer would be tough, so I’m glad I could experience it in this season!

最高なお天気に恵まれ、本当に忘れられない素晴らしい思い出になりました！インストラクターのお兄さんはちょうど良い距離感で接してくれて、知識も豊富で明るく楽しませていただきました。
たまたま他のツアー客の方々と微妙に時間がずれた為、川や美しい景色を独占できました。
とにかく景色、空気が最高です。真夏のトレッキングはキツそうだなと感じので、この季節に体験ができて、良かったです！

Although we are in our mid-40s and not very active, we were able to safely and enjoyably participate until the end thanks to the constant attention of our guide, who helped us with unfamiliar trekking, canoe paddling techniques, and even the pace of our breaks.

It was a long-awaited canoe experience, and we were blessed with good weather. The enjoyable conversations with other participants and our guide, along with the delicious warm lunch, created wonderful memories.

The breeze felt on the canoe was very pleasant, making it a special experience.

運動不足の40代半ばの私達でしたが、慣れないトレッキングも、カヌーの漕ぎ方も、休憩のペースまで、ガイドの方が常に気を配ってくださったので、最後まで安全に、楽しく参加できました。
念願のカヌー体験でしたが、お天気にも恵まれ、他の参加者の方やガイドの方との楽しい会話も、温かいランチの味も、良い思い出になりました。
カヌーの上で感じる風は、とても心地良く、特別な体験でした。

It was disappointing that we couldn't go to Palau Island and the caves because of the high waves. In the morning, we all had our first SUP experience as a family. Just when we got the hang of it, we fell into the river... that also became a fun memory. In the afternoon, we went canyoning, and our guide Diego was very knowledgeable, providing an interesting and enjoyable experience. We had a meaningful day and captured many great shots! I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

波が高くてパラス島&鍾乳洞には行けなかったのは残念でした。午前は家族みんなの希望で、初SUP体験。慣れた頃に川へドボン・・これも楽しい思い出になりました。午後はキャニオニング、ガイドのジエゴさんは知識が豊富で、おもしろ&楽しく案内して頂き、有意義な１日を過ごすことが出来ました。沢山のベストショットも最高‼️
機会があればまた訪れたいです。

The fun time flew by in an instant. Although we couldn't go to Barasu Island due to the weather, I am more than satisfied! The cave adventure, canoeing, jungle exploration, and the Lucky Falls were all exciting. While canoeing, the surrounding tranquility made me want to stop paddling and just listen. It was a collection of precious experiences! Yoshida's guidance was easy to understand and I had a great time. He took so many photos that I didn't even need my phone. I want to visit Iriomote Island again! I wonder which waterfall I should go to next! Thank you very much!

楽しい時間はあっという間に終わりました。天候の関係でバラス島には行けませんでしたが、それ以上に満足しています！
鍾乳洞冒険、カヌー、ジャングル探検、幸運の滝、どれもワクワク◎カヌーでは、周りの静けさに思わず漕ぐのをやめて耳を澄ませたくなります。貴重な体験ばかりでした！
吉田さんのガイドもわかりやすくてとっても楽しめました(^^)写真もたくさん撮って下さるので携帯いらずです。また西表島に来たいな〜！次はどこの滝に行こうかな〜！ありがとうございました(^o^)

Participating in my 60s, enduring a tough hike, the view from above the waterfall and the magnificent waterfall seen from below were incredible. Above all, canoeing while listening to the guide's experiences was the best part.

60代目前で参加、つらい登山に耐え滝上から見た景色や滝下から見た素晴らしい滝、なんと言ってもガイドさんの体験談を聞きながらのカヌーが最高でした。

It was fun. Thanks to the guide's thorough explanations, I was able to enjoy the nature of Iriomote Island. The weather was also favorable, making it a perfect day. Next, I want to go snorkeling.

楽しかったです。
ガイドさんの丁寧な説明のおかげで、西表島の自然を楽しめました。
天気にも恵まれ、最高の1日でした。
つぎはシュノーケリングがしたいです。

The tour to Barasu Island was canceled due to the typhoon (I received a call the day before), but I was refunded the difference.

Two staff members accompanied us, and both were very entertaining, making the experience a lot of fun! They shared various interesting facts about plants and mangroves, making it a very enjoyable tour. They even took the initiative to get under the waterfall, which gave us the courage to do the same! They took a lot of photos (over 100), making it a memorable tour!

I would like to rely on them again when I visit Ishigaki Island or Iriomote Island. Thank you very much!

台風の影響でバラス島のツアーは中止になってしまいましたが(前日に電話をいただきました)、差額は返金していただけました。

スタッフの方が2人ついてくださったのですが、2人とも面白い方達で、すごく楽しませていただきました！植物の事やマングローブの事など、色々な豆知識も教えてくださり、とても楽しいツアーでした。滝にも率先して打たれてくださり、自分達も滝に打たれる勇気が出ました笑　写真もずっと撮ってくださり(100枚越え)、とても思い出になるツアーでした！

また石垣島や西表島に行く際はお世話になりたいと思います。ありがとうございました！

This was my first landing on a remote island from Ishigaki Island. I was looking forward to the Phantom Island, but due to the weather, it was canceled, and we had to change our course at the last minute. However, we were all very satisfied and healed by the adorable water buffalo! Next time, I want to land on Phantom Island and experience snorkeling!

石垣島からはじめての離島上陸。楽しみにしていた幻の島はお天気の都合で中止になり、急きょコースを変更しましたが、とても可愛らしい水牛に癒されて子供達も大人も大満足でした！次こそは幻の島に上陸してシュノーケリングを体験したいと思います！

I made a reservation to visit Iriomote Island the day before and received prompt responses via email and phone. I was worried about the wind that started in the evening. In the morning, I was concerned about whether the boat would depart from Ishigaki to Taketomi Island, but I received a call informing me of a change in the port and that I should take a bus to the designated arrival point, which I reached safely.

After a brief orientation, my spouse and I set off in a single canoe, enjoying the sounds of birds and water, along with our guide's explanations. It was a delightful time, and as we began to see the waterfall, I wondered if we could make it there. After getting off the canoe, we embarked on our first trek, supported by our guide's stories. Once we arrived, I forgot my age and jumped into the waterfall, feeling grateful to have come. While enjoying rice balls with the beautiful waterfall in view, I was thankful for the meal. On the way back, our guide was considerate and shared stories, making the canoeing experience enjoyable.

It was a short time, but I had a wonderfully relaxing and fun experience, perhaps getting a little taste of the beauty of Iriomote Island.

前日に西表島訪問を申し込み、メールや電話の対応にも応じて頂きました。夜から風があり心配でした。朝から竹富島出発のため石垣から船が出るのか心配していましたら、お電話を頂き港の変更、バス利用にて到着を指定頂き無事到着。タッタラー♫簡単な講習で仲良く一人乗りカヌーで夫婦はいざ出発、鳥の鳴き声、水の音、ガイドさんの説明楽しいひとときで滝が見え始める演出、ウワー、あそこまで行けるかな?カヌーを降りて初トレッキング、ガイドさんのお話に助けられ何とか到着後、歳を忘れて滝に飛び込み、来てよかった滝を見ながらおにぎりを頬張りおご馳走様でした帰りもガイドの方に気遣いいただいたり、お話を聞きながらカヌーが楽しかった次第でありました。心は小学生。西表島の素晴らしさをちょっぴり味わったかも
短い時間でしたがゆったりと最高に楽しゅうございました。

At the beginning of November, the cloudy weather made it comfortable to complete the entire journey without feeling hot. The tough parts of the canoeing were over in an instant. The trekking portion was manageable, and it went by quickly while chatting with the guide. The waterfall was truly magnificent, making it worth the effort. I highly recommend it. The basin of the waterfall was also great.

11月初めの曇天で、暑くないので快適に全行程を終えれた。カヌーは辛い箇所は一瞬で終了。トレッキング部分はそれなりだけど、ガイドさんと会話しながらだとあっという間。滝がとても素晴らしいので頑張りがいはある。オススメ。滝壺も良かった。

The weather was bad, so we couldn't go to the waterfall. However, we received proper communication about the course change in advance. I was disappointed because I wanted to see the view from the waterfall, but I still enjoyed the new course. The scenery from the leisurely canoe ride was very beautiful, and I felt it was worth coming. It reminded me of Mauritius, where I had been before.

Although it was a bit chilly, I was happy that the guide joined me in diving into the waterfall pool. It was easy to talk with them, and the guide provided a great sense of reassurance. Perhaps due to the off-season and the weather, the overall atmosphere was relaxed, which was great for my solo trip. I would like to try again when the weather is nice.

天気が悪く滝上には行けませんでした。事前にコース変更についてきちんとご連絡がありました。滝上からの景色が見たかったので残念ではありましたが、変更後のコースでも十分楽しめました。のんびり進むカヌーからの景色はとてもきれいで来て良かったと思いました。以前行ったモーリシャスに似ていると思いました。
肌寒い天気でしたが滝壺にダイブする私にガイドの方もお付き合いいただきうれしかったです。
お話しもしやすく、ガイドもとても安心感がありました。シーズンオフとお天気のせいか、全体的にのんびりした雰囲気で楽しめて1人旅にはありがたかったです。天気が良いときにもまたリベンジしたいと思います。

Due to the sea conditions preventing the boat from landing on Barasu Island, we changed our plan to canyoning. It turned out to be a great decision!

Diego, who guided us, explained the flora and fauna of Iriomote Island, where nature is valued more than humans, in a very easy-to-understand manner, and his love for Iriomote really came through.

Canyoning → Lunch → SUP → Kura Falls

For each activity, he clearly explained how to enjoy them, what not to do, and safety (hazards), allowing us to have a safe and enjoyable experience. I'm looking forward to coming back to Iriomote Island again. Thank you, Diego!

バラス島へ上陸するブランが船を出せない海の状況のため、その部分をキャニオニングへとプラン変更しました。結果として大正解でしたw
案内をしてくださったジエゴさんも移動の車中で自然が人よりも価値高く扱われている西表島の動植物について、とても分かりやすく説明してくださり、西表愛が伝わってきました。

キャニオニング→ランチ→SUP→クーラの滝

各アクティビティで、楽しみ方や、してはならないこと、安全(危険)についても分かりやすく説明してくださり、安心して楽しむことができました。
また西表島に来ることが楽しみになりました、
ジエゴさん、ありがとうございました！

Due to the weather, we couldn't go to Barasu Island, so we changed to a tour that included mangrove canoeing and trekking, as well as a visit to Yufu Island. The departure and return from the coast were a bit challenging due to strong winds, but the guide helped the participants. There was no wind in the jungle, and the guide's explanations were detailed; we were able to take many photos. We even got to see the out-of-season Sagarihana flowers. We are a couple in our 60s, but we felt no issues and enjoyed ourselves, so I can recommend this without hesitation.

天候の関係でバラス島には行けず、マングローブカヌー＋トレッキングと由布島のツアーに変更していただきました。海岸からの出発と帰着は強風で少し大変でしたが、ガイドさんが参加者を助けていました。ジャングル内に風はなく、ガイドさんの説明も詳しく、写真をたくさん撮っていただきました。季節外れのサガリバナも見ることができました。60代夫婦でしたが、全く問題を感じず楽しめましたので、迷わずお勧めできます。

I was disappointed to hear that we wouldn't be going to Balas Island due to the weather conditions the day before, but I was quite satisfied with the canoeing, trekking, and cave exploration! I think I'll start behaving better from today so that I can go to Balas Island next time!! The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and surprised me by answering all my questions right away!! I really had a great time♪

前日風の影響でバラス島に行かないと連絡があり、残念に思っていたのですが、カヌーとトレッキング、洞窟探検でかなり満足！
次回行った時にバラス島行けるように今日から行いを良くしようと思います！！
ガイドのお兄さんがなんでも知っていて、聞いたらすぐ答えてくれてビックリでした！！
ほーんとに楽しかったです♪

This tour is very fulfilling as you can enjoy thrilling caves and mangrove SUP in half a day! The mangrove SUP was relaxing and a lot of fun. The jungle trekking was just the right distance. It's a tour that can be enjoyed even if the weather isn't great. Our guide, Tomo, was great at taking photos, making for wonderful memories!

スリルがある鍾乳洞とマングローブSUPを半日で楽しめるため、とても充実したツアーです！マングローブSUPがのんびり出来て、とても楽しかったです。ジャングルのトレッキングもちょうどよい距離でした。
天気が良くなくても十分に楽しめるツアーですね。
ガイドのともさんが写真が上手くて、とてもいい記念になりました！

The wind was strong, so we canceled our trip to Barasu Island based on the previous day's decision. Instead, we went canyoning. After stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), we took a shower at the tour company and were dropped off at Uehara Port for a lunch break.

We went canyoning with just the two of us and the same guide as during the SUP. Based on our initial jumps, the guide seemed to think we could handle it, as we did some jumps from quite high places and even repeated a couple of them. It was very thrilling, but since it was just us, we laughed a lot and jumped in without holding back, and they took plenty of great photos for us.

Since we couldn't go to Barasu Island, we received a refund of 2,000 yen per person. I got an email from Veltra the next day. The tour itself was great, but unfortunately, we couldn't go to Barasu Island, so I give it four stars!

風が強く前日の判断でバラス島行きはキャンセルに。代わりにキャニオニングになりました。
SUPの後、催行会社でシャワーを浴び、上原港で一旦降ろされお昼休憩。
SUPの時と同じガイドさんと私達2人だけでキャニオニングに行きました。
最初の飛び込みの感じでこの人達イケるなと判断したのか、かなり高いところからの飛び込みや、2回連続でやったりと、かなりスリリングでしたが、うちらだけなので思いっきり笑って遠慮せず飛び込みして、たっぷり良い写真撮ってくれました。
バラス島行けなかったので、その分1人2000円返金になりました。veltraさんから翌日メールが入りました。
ツアー自体は良かったですが、残念ながらバラス島行けなかったので、星4つで！

I was looking forward to the stargazing tour, but unfortunately, the weather was bad. Ishigaki was no good, and Iriomote Island was also no good. We weren't blessed with good weather, so once again, the stargazing was a miss.
As for the alternative jungle tour, it was quite good. I had seen the stationary coconut crabs during the day, but seeing the active ones at night was shocking. We also encountered a habu snake, which made for quite an adventure.
I also learned for the first time that firefly larvae glow.
Overall, I think it was good. I want to repeat it because I want to see the stars.

星空ツアーを期待していたのですが、あいにくの悪天候。石垣もダメ、西表島もダメ。天候に恵まれず、星空はまた空振りでした。
代替のジャングルツアーですが、結構良かったです。昼間の動かないヤシガニは見たことがあったのですが、活発に動きまわる夜のヤシガニは衝撃的。ハブにも遭遇しなかなかのアドベンチャーでした。
ホタルの幼虫が光るというのも初めて知りました。
総合的に良かったと思います。星空が見たいのでリピートしたいと思います。

The explanations were thorough, and the pacing was just right, so even my family, who were new to stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), had a great experience! They took photos at key moments, and I was really happy to receive such beautiful pictures afterward. The tour to Baras Island was canceled due to the wind, and we only did the half-day mangrove SUP experience, which was a bit disappointing, but I plan to try again for a rematch! (o^^o)

丁寧に説明をしていただき、テンポを合わせてくださったのでSUPが初めてだった家族も楽しく体験できることができていました！
要所要所で写真を撮っていただき、終わった後にいただきましたが、とても綺麗な写真で嬉しかったです。
風の影響でバラス島のツアーは中止となり、マングローブのSUP体験のみ半日で行ったので、それだけが少し残念でしたが、またリベンジしようと思います(o^^o)

I had a morning experience in the limestone cave, and the stand-up paddleboarding was more stable and easier than I expected! It was fun to get close to the waterfall at our destination and really feel its presence!

朝一の鍾乳洞体験をして、サップも思ったより安定していて、こぎやすかったです！！
目的地の滝も近くまで行って感じることができて楽しかったです！

Due to the impact of the typhoon, the planned activities were changed, but the staff's response was wonderful, so I was able to enjoy it without any issues. I would like to participate again.

台風の影響で予定していた内容が変更になりましたが、スタッフの方々の対応が素晴らしかったので無事に楽しむことができました。
また参加したいと思います。

The sea conditions the day before were poor, so we changed our plan from snorkeling to SUP and canyoning. It was both of our first times, but with the thorough explanations, we were able to enjoy it safely.

On the SUP, we spent a relaxing time surrounded by plenty of greenery in the mangroves. The changing scenery over time was also captivating. The gentle current made it possible for beginners to stand up.

Canyoning was a bit scary at first, but once you jump into the river, the fun takes over. The river water might be a little cold. Playing in the midst of nature in 360° was the best way to refresh both mind and body.

Additionally, our guide took photos and shared various information about the flora and fauna and the island, allowing us to fully enjoy Iriomote Island. Next time, I would like to try snorkeling as well.

前日の海の状況が悪く、シュノーケリングからSUP +キャニオニングのプランに変更。
どちらも初めてでしたが、丁寧な説明で安全に楽しむことができました。
SUPはマングローブ内で沢山の緑に触れゆったりとした時間を過ごすことができます。時間で変わっていく景色も魅力的でした。流れが穏やかなので初心者でも立つことができました。
キャニオニングは最初は怖さがありますが、１度川に飛び込めば楽しさの方が勝ちます。少し川の水は冷たいかも。360°大自然の中で思いっきり遊んで心もカラダもリフレッシュできて最高でした。
プラスαでガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださったり、動植物や島のことなど色んなことを教えてくれるので沢山西表島を満喫できました。次は、シュノーケリングも体験してみたいです。

The weather was perfect, and I had the best experience. Landing on Balas Island and seeing the Kuula Falls up close was even more moving than I had imagined from photos. Additionally, the limestone cave was exceptional, and it became a very precious memory in every way! The guide was also a really nice person. I was grateful for all the great photos he took. I definitely want to participate again!

お天気にも恵まれて最高の体験が出来ました。
バラス島に着陸できたり、クーラの滝を間近で見れたり、写真で見た以上の感動がありました。
また、鍾乳洞は格別で、全てにおいてとても貴重な思い出になりました！ガイドのお兄さんも、すごく良いかたでした。いい写真をたくさん撮って頂き、有り難かったです。また是非参加したいです！

Initially, it was a tour that included three activities in one day, including Barasu Island, but due to the impact of the waves, we were informed the day before that landing on Barasu Island would be difficult, so the plan was changed to a half-day tour with two activities: the limestone cave and mangrove SUP. Since we had already made the payment, the difference was refunded.

In the end, it was a very satisfying tour and a lot of fun memories! We enjoyed it even without Barasu Island!

The duration, guide, and equipment were all just right. Depending on the tide, it might be better to protect your calves, as it can help guard against submerged trees and rocks. (We thought it was a good idea to do so.) The photos taken were also very beautiful, so you can relax during the activities without carrying anything! Even if it's your first time SUPing, they will teach you properly. They also take good care of you along the way.

If you want to experience the nature of Iriomote, I highly recommend it!

当初、バラス島含む３つのアクティビティを1日で回るツアーでしたが、波などの影響でバラス島上陸が難しいということで前日ご連絡いただき、鍾乳洞、マングローブSUPの２つを半日で回るプランに変更。支払い済んでたので差額はキャッシュバック。
蓋を開けてみれば、大満足のツアーでとても楽しい思い出です！バラス島なしでも満喫しました！

所要時間、ガイド、装備などどれをとってもちょうどよかったです。潮位にもよると思いますがふくらはぎまで保護してた方が水中の木や岩などから守ってくれていいかもしれません。(私たちはそうしてよかったなと思いました)
写真もとても素敵に撮ってくださるので、アクティビティ中は手ぶらで安心〜！
SUP初めてでもちゃんと教えてくれます。道中のケアもしっかりされています。
西表の自然を感じたい方は是非。

I was able to experience a variety of activities in one day. The guide's explanations and descriptions of the island were clear and enjoyable. The SUP experience was my first time, but I received a thorough lecture on how to ride from the beginning. It was easy to ride in the mangroves since there were no waves. It was a different experience compared to the views from the canoe.

I think it was just a coincidence, but we had Barasu Island all to ourselves as there were no other tour groups. Waves were coming from various directions, and it was incredibly beautiful.

We couldn't snorkel at Barasu Island due to high waves, but the cave exploration we did instead was very exciting. The natural cave had a different kind of beauty and grandeur compared to the well-maintained caves.

Since Iriomote Island is quite large, I think it would be great to either book a tour that takes you to various places or stay for one or two nights to enjoy it. There are still many places I haven't been to, so I would like to go again. Thank you very much.

１日でさまざまな体験ができました。
ガイドさんの案内や、島の説明がわかりやすくて楽しかったです。
SUP体験は初めてのことでしたが乗り方等１からレクチャーしてもらいました。マングローブ内は波もないため乗りやすかったです。カヌーからの景色とはまた違った体験ができました。
バラス島はたまたまだとは思うけど他のツアーの方がおらず貸切でした。いろいろな方向から波が寄せてきてすごく綺麗でした。
バラス島でのシュノーケルは波が高くできませんでしたが、代わりに行った鍾乳洞探検はとてもわくわくしました。自然にできた鍾乳洞で整備された鍾乳洞とは違った綺麗さ、壮大さがありました。
西表島はとても大きいため様々なところに行けるツアーの申し込むか、2泊か１泊かして楽しめたらいい島だと思いました。まだまだいけていないところがあるのでまた行きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
