I requested a one-day tour, and each tour took a lot of photos, which became wonderful memories. The guide was very interesting, polite, and taught us a lot about Iriomote Island, so I was very satisfied.
1日ツアーをお願いしましたが、どのツアーもたくさん写真を撮って下さり、とてもいい記念になりました。
ガイドさんもとても面白く、丁寧で、西表島のことをたくさん教えてくださり、大満足です。

It was my first time doing SUP. At first, I was a bit wobbly and scared, but as I got used to it, it became really fun, and the scenery around me was so mystical and breathtaking, unlike anything I had ever seen before. The guide's explanations were interesting and easy to understand, so I listened with great interest.
I had only seen limestone caves on TV, so I was incredibly excited when I saw one for the first time. The plants were all things I had never seen before, making for a wonderful experience.
I was also thrilled to discover that there was an island like Balas in Japan! I was very excited and moved by it. If I have the chance, I would love to visit Iriomote Island again!
初めてのSUPでした。最初はグラグラして少し怖かったですが、だんだん慣れてくるとすごく楽しく、周りの風景も今まで見たことない感じですごく神秘的で感動しました。ガイドさんの説明も面白く、わかりやすい説明だったので興味津々で聞いてしまいました。
鍾乳洞もテレビでしか見てなかったので初めて見たときはものすごく興奮しました。植物も見たことないものばかりだったのでとてもいい体験ができました。
バラス島もこんな島が日本にあったんだ!っていう感じでとても興奮したし、感動もしました。また機会があれば西表島に行きたいです!!

I experienced SUP for the first time. I was a bit anxious since it was my first time, but the guide taught me patiently, so I was able to enjoy it! I think anyone can have fun, even if it's their first time! I want to do SUP again. It was great that the guide also explained about the mangroves and Iriomote Island. The waterfall was amazing too! I was able to feel the great nature, away from my usual daily life. Balas Island is also very beautiful. I was impressed by the two islands made of coral. I enjoyed the entire experience while listening to the guide's explanations. I definitely want to use this service again when I come back.
初めてsupを体験しました。初めてだったので不安でしたが、ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくれたので、楽しむことができました!初めてでも誰でも楽しめると思います!またsupやりたいです。マングローブの説明など西表島のことも教えてくれて良かったです。滝もすごかったです!いつもの日常から離れた、大自然を感じることができました。バラス島もとても綺麗です。サンゴでできた世界に2つの島に感動しました。終始ガイドさんの説明を聞きながら、楽しむことができました。また来た時は是非利用したいです。

I came to Iriomote Island for a resort job, and while I've been to quite a few places on my own, there were still many things I hadn't done, so I joined this tour. I leisurely paddled through the mangrove forest on a stand-up paddleboard, and then we went trekking to a waterfall. It was smaller than I had imagined, but I was able to splash around in the water, which was fun. After that, we visited a limestone cave with no pavement or anything, experiencing nature in its raw form. After lunch, we took photos on a beautiful island made entirely of coral, and I brought back a small piece of coral as a souvenir for a chopstick rest. I had a truly valuable experience and I'm very satisfied. I would love to do it again when my friends come to visit.
西表島にリゾートバイトで来ていて
一人で行けるところにはある程度行ったのですが、まだまだやれてないことが沢山あったのでこのツアーに参加しました。
マングローブ林の中をゆったりとSUPに乗ってそのあとトレッキングをして、滝まで行きました。想像していたものよりを小さかったけど、滝で水浴びをしたり出来たので、おろしろかったです。そのあと舗装も何もない鍾乳洞に行ってありのままの自然を体感しました。昼食後はすごく綺麗なサンゴだけで出来た島で写真を撮って、記念に箸置き用の小さなサンゴを持って帰りました。
なかなか貴重な体験ができて大満足してます
友達が遊びき来たらもう一度体験したいと思います。

I booked this plan to fully enjoy nature in a day and experience various tours. I was a bit anxious because I wasn't very confident in my physical stamina, but it turned out to be fulfilling without being overly exhausting! During the first stand-up paddleboarding tour, I was able to enjoy the mangrove forest, and in the next cave tour, I experienced the mystical scenery.
On the landing tour to the coral island of Barasu Island in the afternoon, I was grateful for all the photos taken! I was very satisfied with the guide's extensive knowledge and careful guidance, and of course, I was able to leave with great satisfaction from the natural beauty of Iriomote Island. Thank you very much!!
日帰りで大自然を満喫したく、1日に色んなツアーを体験できるこちらのプランに予約しました。
体力にはあまり自信がなかったので不安だったのですが、疲れすぎず、充実感のある内容でした!最初のsupボードのツアーではマングローブの森を堪能でき、その次に鍾乳洞のツアーでは神秘的な景色を堪能できました。

I came to Ishigaki for the first time. I wanted to explore the surrounding islands, so I went to Iriomote Island. I heard that Iriomote Island is rich in nature and is called the "Galapagos of the East," so I signed up for a tour to experience nature.
There, I went to do stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), visited a limestone cave, and went to Barasu Island, which is made up of a few corals. I was a bit anxious since it was my first time doing SUP, but the guide taught me patiently, so I was able to do it well. Even though my friends pushed me in, playing surrounded by nature that I don't usually see became a great memory. In the limestone cave, I could experience the untouched nature, and at Barasu Island, I was able to see sea turtles from above, which was really wonderful. I plan to come again. Thank you!
初めて石垣旅行に来ました。離島巡りもしたかったので西表島に行きました。西表島は東洋のガラパゴスと呼ばれるくらい自然が豊かなところだと聞いたので、

そこでSUPと鍾乳洞、そして数少ないサンゴで、できたバラス島に行きました。
SUPは初めてだったので不安もあったけど
ガイドの方に丁寧に教えてくださったので上手くできました。友達に落とされたりしたけど普段見ない自然に囲まれて遊んだことは、いい思い出になりました。鍾乳洞では舗装がなされていないありのままの自然が体感でき、バラス島では上からウミガメが見れたりしてとても良かったです。また来ようと思いますありがとうございました。

We progressed through the mangroves by canoe and then trekked to Pinai Sara Falls. Along the way, they provided explanations about the flora and fauna and took photos at various points. They even used a 360-degree camera, which was quite innovative. After enjoying handmade Yaeyama soba for lunch, we took a boat to Barasu Island, where we also took commemorative photos. After that, we snorkeled at a snorkeling point for as long as we wanted until time was up. The sea around Iriomote was beautifully adorned with coral, resembling a flower garden, and we even encountered sea turtles, which was incredibly fun.

I was worried about the weather, but it held up, and I really enjoyed both canoeing and trekking. The guide was very kind, and everyone applauded their impressive parking skills with the large vehicle. Despite their small frame, they effortlessly carried the canoe and provided various explanations along the way while taking many photos, which they sent to us at the end. I was really happy about that (I can't upload them because my face is in the pictures, but they took a lot of great shots). When we did activities elsewhere, it was hard to get memorable photos of ourselves, so this became a wonderful keepsake. The Pinai Sara Falls were incredibly powerful, and I felt really glad to have come all the way to Iriomote Island! They even carried our lunch and warm miso soup with their delicate frame, which was touching! The view overlooking the bay from the monsoon was also fantastic, and there were cute horses. I would like to use this place again for other activities when the sea and sky are blue.
心配していたお天気もなんとかもってくれて、カヌーもトレッキングもとても楽しめました。ガイドの方もとても親切で、大型車の駐車技術が上手くみんな拍手笑、細腕ながらカヌーをひょいっと運んだり道中いろんな説明をしてくださりながらたくさん写真を撮って最後に送っていただいてとても嬉しかったです(顔が写ってしまってるのでアップロードできないのですが、すごくいい写真を沢山撮ってくれました)。他の所でアクティビティをした時はなかなか自分達の思い出の写真が撮れないのですごくいい記念になりました。 ピナイサーラの滝はものすごい迫力で、西表島のここまできて本当に良かったなと思いました! お弁当と温かいお味噌汁まで華奢な体で運んでくれていて感動! モンスーンからの湾を一望できる景色も最高で、可愛い馬もいます。青い海と空の時にまた他のアクティビティをしにこちらを利用したいと思います。

The main event was a tour of Iriomote Island.
Of course, we were full of expectations.

I thought half a day would go by quickly, but it was quite the opposite.
We were satisfied with the canoeing and also enjoyed the trekking.
For lunch, we had rice balls, which were very delicious.

The night sky in Iriomote was more beautiful and moving than I had imagined. I had made a reservation the night before, but due to the weather not being great, I changed it to the following day. Thanks to that, our guide, Mr. Iwamoto, kept saying how beautiful the sky would be tonight, and it truly was stunning. While kayaking on the Urauchi River and observing the stars, the bioluminescent plankton glowed every time we paddled, allowing us to enjoy both the sky and the water. We also ventured a little into the mangrove forest. The guide provided various explanations along the way, making the experience even more interesting and enjoyable. I am grateful for the beautiful starry sky, the absence of unnecessary lights at night, and the opportunity to fully enjoy the nature of Iriomote through this wonderful tour.
By the way, since I stayed at Nirakanai, I walked to the location, which took about an hour and a half. I brought a flashlight, but they are available for rent. The kayaking was on calm waters, so I hardly got wet. When getting into the kayak, you walk in the water up to your ankles, so it's best to wear something that can get wet (though they inform you about this in advance…).
西表の夜空は想像以上に美しく感動的でした。
前夜に予約していたのですが、天候がいまいちだったので、翌日に変更していただきました。そのおかげで、ガイドの岩本さんも今夜は綺麗に見えますよを繰り返されるほど、綺麗な夜空でした。浦内川をカヤックを漕ぎながらの星空観察で、水面には夜光虫がパドルを漕ぐたびに発光するので、上下と楽しめました。また、マングローブ林にも少しだけ入って行きました。適宜、色々な説明を加えてくださるので、さらに興味深く楽しむことが出来ました。綺麗な星空、無駄な光の無い夜、西表の自然を満喫でき、よいツアーに参加できたことに感謝します。
ちなみにニラカナイに宿泊だったため、移動は徒歩、所要時間1時間半くらい。ライトを持参しましたが、借りられます。穏やかな水面でのカヤックなので、ほぼ水には濡れません。カヤックに乗り込む際に足首くらいまで水中を歩くため足元は濡れてもよい格好がベストです。(事前に教えてくれますが…)
Thank you for your patronage. Please visit us again if you have the opportunity. Thank you.

I participated with my elementary school son. The guide was lively and friendly, and although she was cute, she drove like a pro. I was amazed by her extensive knowledge of nature; she really knows the jungle inside and out.
They provide all the equipment, so you can join wearing just a swimsuit and a rash guard. The sun is intense, so a hat is essential, but if you forget one, they will lend you one.
Kayaking was easier than I expected, and we leisurely paddled through scenery reminiscent of the Amazon River. Just this experience alone made it worth participating.
We saw the mystical mangrove forest, along with many TonTonMi and ShioManeki.
After about 40 minutes, we headed deeper into the jungle towards a waterfall, which was quite challenging. It shouldn't be a problem for healthy individuals, but it might be tough for those with bad legs or the elderly. The guide was very knowledgeable about where to step and the dangerous spots, providing careful instructions, but overall, the pace was quite fast, so it was somewhat demanding. Expect to frequently navigate elevation changes of 40 to 50 cm. It was rare to see so many creatures in the jungle, and since the guide was knowledgeable, she taught us everything. It was a valuable experience for the kids.
After sweating a lot, we arrived at the PinaiSara waterfall. Standing right under the 50-meter waterfall was breathtaking! Plus, we could play in the cool pool below and wash off the sweat, which felt amazing.
After cooling off, we had lunch. The guide had carried lunch for everyone. We had two large rice balls, fried chicken, and a boiled egg. It was incredibly delicious and just what our tired bodies needed.
After playing a bit at the waterfall, we returned the same way along the river.
By around 2 PM, we returned to Monsoon, and since I was heading back to Ishigaki, I was able to catch the 2:30 PM ferry. The guide was very efficient in managing the detailed schedule of the half-day course. However, since it was a busy season, there wasn't much time to prepare (the waterfall gets crowded), so the overall pace was quick. Be well-prepared before joining.
My son really liked the guide and said he definitely wants to participate again! (laughs)

道具は全て貸してくれるので、水着とラッシュガードで参加できます。日差しがすごいので帽子は必須で、忘れた場合はこちらも貸してくれます。
カヤックは思ったより簡単で、アマゾン川のような景色の中をのんびりと進んで行きます。もうこれだけで参加して良かったと思いました。
マングローブの神秘的な森や、トントンミー、シオマネキが沢山見れます。
40分くらい進むと、そこからはジャングルを滝目指して進んで行きますが、結構ハードです。健常者なら問題ありませんが、足が悪い人やお年寄りは厳しいのではないでしょうか。ガイドさんは足の掛け場所や危ない場所など熟知していて丁寧に教えてくれますが、全体として進むスピードが早めなのでそれなりに大変です。4〜50cmの高低差を頻繁に越えると思ってください。ジャングルでも珍しく生き物が沢山見れて、しかもガイドさんが詳しいので何でも教えてくれます。子供には貴重な体験です。
汗をたっぷりかいた所でピナイサーラの滝に到着。50mの滝の真下は圧巻!更にその冷たい滝壺で遊んで汗を流せます。これが最高に気持ちいいです。
汗を流した所でランチ。ガイドさんが全員分のお弁当を担いでくれてたんですね。大きなオニギリ2つと唐揚げ、ゆで卵。これがもう、疲れた身体に最高に美味しかったです。
滝で少し遊んで、同じ道、川を戻ります。
モンスーンに戻って14時位、自分は石垣に戻るので14時半の定期船に乗れました。
半日コースの緻密なスケジュールを、テキパキこなすガイドのお姉さんはとても優秀です。
ただ繁忙期という事もありゆっくり準備している余裕はない(滝が混んでしまう)ので、全体として進捗は早めです。準備は万端で参加しましょう。
息子はガイドのお姉さんがえらく気に入ったそうで、また必ず参加すると息巻いてました(笑)

Since the guide was a newcomer, we had a more experienced guide accompany us, and the two of them guided us together. We arrived at the canoeing spot after about 30 minutes, just when we were starting to feel tired. The trekking was also just right, taking about 20 minutes and making us sweat a little. After returning, I took a shower, felt the natural breeze in the hammock while drinking a beer, and it was truly a wonderful holiday. They took a lot of photos for us and sent them right away via LINE. Thank you very much.
ガイドさんが新人でしたので先生役のガイドさんが付き2人で案内してもらいました。カヌーも30分くらいで疲れたころに到着。トレキングも少し汗が出るくらいで(20分)到着でちょーどいい具合でした。帰ってからシャワーを使いハンモックで自然の風を感じてビールを飲んで、実にいい休日でした。写真もたくさん撮っていただきラインですぐに送ってもらいました。ありがとうございました。

We participated as a couple in our mid-60s. We met our guide at Uehara Port, received explanations, shoes, and life jackets at the Iriomote Monsoon office, and then moved to the location. We slowly paddled up the mangrove river in a two-person canoe while listening to the guide's instructions, and after reaching the shore, we aimed for the Pinaisara Falls. Along the way, we received explanations about various plants and were continually impressed by the guide's extensive knowledge. We enjoyed swimming under the waterfall and cheered with excitement. After returning to the office, while waiting for the boat, we relaxed in a hammock overlooking the sea and fully enjoyed the nature of Iriomote. I was also greatly attracted to the nature-integrated approach of the Iriomote Monsoon team. I thought that next time, it might be nice to stay here. Thank you to the guide and all the staff.
60歳半ばの夫婦で参加しました。上原港でガイドさんと合流し、西表モンスーンの事務所で説明と靴、ライフジャケットを受け取り、現地に移動。二人乗りのカヌーでマングローブの川をガイドさんの案内を聞きながらゆっくり上り、岸についてからピナイサーラの滝をめざしました。途中、いろいろな草木の説明を受け、草木などガイドさんがよく知っていることについて感心することしきり。滝の下でを水浴び、歓声を上げました。事務所に戻り、船を待つ間、海を眼下に見下ろし、ハンモックにゆられ、西表の自然を満喫できました。西表モンスーンの皆様の自然ととけあった対応にも大変心を惹かれました。次に来るときは、ここに泊まりるのがいいかなと思いました。ガイドさん、スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました。

It was our family's first canoeing and trekking experience with five people. Even as beginners, we had a great time, especially the mangrove canoeing, which was fantastic due to the nice weather. The rice balls and bento we ate by the waterfall were also amazing! The guide was cute and kept the conversation fun throughout. We definitely plan to visit again!
家族5人ではじめてのカヌー、トレッキング体験でした。
初心者でも楽しめて、特にマングローブカヌーが気候も良かったので最高に気持ちよかったです。滝壺で食べるおにぎりお弁当も最高でした!
ガイドのお姉さんも可愛くて終始楽しくお話ししていただきました。
再訪必至です!
