All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

At first, we were given tickets and just moved in order, so it was very easy, straightforward, and we could enjoy the sightseeing smoothly without waiting.

In terms of content, we could see the mangroves well, crossed the sea on a water buffalo, and surprisingly, the food was delicious, which was great.

This time, we traveled with a group of tourists. They talked a lot, laughed loudly, and during the water buffalo ride, they played the sanshin and started singing. We had to wait because we couldn't gather at the meeting time, which delayed the arrival of other guests at their destination, Taketomi Island (although we didn't have that plan).

If we had been with people of the same age, we might have talked, but for us, it was a negative point.

I thought this plan was aimed at group tourism.

It's for those who don't want to move around much. We would have preferred to do the mangrove kayaking instead.

最初にチケットを渡され　順番に移動していくだけなのでとても簡単で、分かりやすく、待つこともなくスムーズに観光できました。
内容的にはマングローブもよく見えて、水牛で海を渡り、意外とご飯も美味しくて、良かったです。
今回私達は団体旅行客と一緒に回りました。とにかく　よくしゃべり、大声で笑う、水牛の時は三線を弾いてくれたのに、歌い出す。
集合時間に集合できず待たされる。その為他のお客さんの目的地　竹富島到着が遅れていた。（私達は行かないプランですが）
同じ年代の人達ならお話もしたかもしれませんが、私達にはマイナスポイントでした。

こちらのプランは団体向けの観光だと思いました。

あまり動きたくない人向けです。私達ならマングローブカヤックにすれば良かったです。

It was great to efficiently tour Ishigaki Island without renting a car, while also being able to sightsee and enjoy meals. The bus guide provided detailed information that helped me understand Ishigaki Island better, which I wouldn't have known on my own. Even in January, the blue sea and blue sky of Ishigaki Island were amazing.

レンタカーを借りずに石垣島を効率よく一周回れて、観光もできて、食事もできて良かったです
個人で回ってもわからないようなことをバスガイドさんが詳しく教えてくださるので石垣島の事がよくわかります
１月でも石垣島の青い海と青い空は最高でした

It was great to leisurely and efficiently visit the island's attractions with a charming guide who spoke with a smile. Not only did we see the tourist spots, but we also received explanations about various places on the island that we wouldn't have known about on our own, which felt like a great value.

For lunch, we enjoyed Ishizaka beef hamburgers and Miminga at a restaurant with a nice view, and everything was very delicious.

Lastly, we got to listen to some sanshin songs, which made for wonderful memories. I highly recommend it! ❣️

笑顔語り口魅力的なガイドさんとのんびり、しかも無駄なく効率的に島の名所を回れてとても良かったです。観光地だけでなく、自分達で回るのでは知り得ない島内の随所の説明もありお得感満載。
昼食は眺めのよい店で石坂牛ハンバーグ、ミミンガ等土地の食べ物網羅されとても美味しかったです。
最後に三線の唄も聞けとてもよい思い出となりました。オススメします❣️

It was great to efficiently tour each island while hitting all the key points. I recommend it for those who may have concerns about their stamina or are visiting the islands for the first time.

各島、ポイントを押さえて効率良く周遊できて良かったです。体力に不安な方や初めての島巡りにおすすめです。

I had a great time. The guide was very experienced and explained things while occasionally playing the sanshin. It was a sunny day, so the scenery was fantastic, and there were moments when the guide took photos for us. The optional glass-bottom boat ride was also wonderful; the sea was very beautiful, and we were able to see sea turtles and coral.

とても楽しかったです。ガイドさんがとても慣れた方で、ところどころ三線も引きながら説明してくださいました。この日は晴れていたので景色も最高で、ガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださる場面もありました。オプションで乗ったグラスボートも、海がとても綺麗でウミガメや珊瑚なども見ることができました。

Since I was traveling alone and didn't have a car, I was glad to be able to visit many tourist spots in a short amount of time. Both the guide and the driver were great, and I had a lot of fun.

ひとり旅だったので、車もないし、短い時間で、
沢山の観光地を回ってもらって良かったです。
ガイドさんも運転手さんもとても良かった、楽しかったです

I was able to spend time very leisurely, forgetting about the clock.

It was great that there were many local dishes prepared for lunch.

I recommend exploring Taketomi Island by renting a bicycle.

時間を忘れてとてものんびりと過ごせました。

お昼ごはんは郷土料理がたくさん用意されていて良かったです。

竹富島はレンタサイクルで巡るのをオススメします。

If you get separated a little, the person in charge will change depending on the location, so be careful. It might be difficult for those who are not used to it, but I think the content is good. Those who have trouble keeping up should be cautious.

ちょっとはぐれると代わる代わるだから場所で担当変わるし気をつけて、なれない人は無理かも、内容は良いと思います。飲み込み悪い方は気を付けて

We were blessed with warm weather and no wind. I didn't have high expectations for lunch, but it was very delicious. The guide sang several songs, and the snake lute was wonderful. I would like to participate again.

温暖で、風も無く良い天候に恵まれました。
昼食も期待してませんでしたが、大変美味しいかったです。ガイドさんが何曲も歌ってくれて、蛇三線も素晴らしかったです。又参加したいです。

It was a trip for two with my husband. We were able to relax, and the experience was rich. We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the laid-back warmth of Okinawa.

主人との二人旅でした。のんびりできて、内容は豊富でした。
天気にも恵まれ沖縄のゆったりとした温かさを体験できました。

The male water buffalo does not walk alone, and I learned that it defecates in the water, which was fun to know. The performance of the sanshin was also wonderful. Thank you.

雄の水牛は一頭では歩かない、排泄は水の中にするなど楽しく教えていただきました、三線の演奏も素晴らしかった。ありがとう

I traveled from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island, enjoyed the mangroves, and then rode a water buffalo to be pulled to Yufu Island. Thank you, Musashi!

石垣島から西表島に行き、マングローブを満喫してから、水牛に乗り由布島まで牽引してもらいました。ムサシありがとうございました

I was able to easily experience the long-awaited water buffalo cart ride. My child was scared of the water buffalo and hid their face during the commemorative photo, but when I said I wanted to buy it, they kindly stayed with us until my child lifted their face for the photo. I was very grateful for their kindness.
I was able to choose the return ferry time, but due to other circumstances, I selected an earlier time, so I didn't have enough time to leisurely enjoy the town's scenery. It would have been better if the ferry time on the way there had been a bit earlier.

念願の水牛車体験を手軽に出来ました。子供が水牛を怖がり記念写真を撮る時に顔を伏せてしまいましたが、購入すると言ったら顔を上げるまで撮影に付き合ってくださいました。とても親切でありがたかったです。
帰りのフェリーの時間を選べましたが、その後の都合で早い時間を選択した為、ゆっくり街並みを観る時間がありませんでした。行きのフェリーの時間がもう少し早いと良かったです。

I was looking for a tour that I could participate in with my 10-month-old daughter. It was very kind and appreciated that they helped us with getting on and off the boat and bus while carrying the stroller. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the mangroves. Riding a water buffalo while listening to shamisen music and crossing over to Yufuin Island became the best memory of this trip.

10ヶ月になる娘とも参加できるツアーを探していました。
船の乗り降りやバスの乗り降りもベビーカーを一緒に持ってくださりとても親切でありがたかったです。
マングローブの美しさに圧倒されました。
三味線を聴きながら水牛にのって由布島に渡れたのはこの旅一番の思い出になりました。

The mangrove cruise on Iriomote Island was enjoyable. I was able to see trees that can only be found here up close, and the explanations from the staff were clear and helpful, making the experience relaxing and pleasant.

The experience of crossing to Yubu Island by water buffalo was also unique to this location and enjoyable. On the island, I could take photos with the water buffalo, and the timing was just right for a complete tour. The lunch was average, nothing special.

Overall, I was able to efficiently and enjoyably explore the two islands, and I'm glad I participated.

西表島のマングローブクルーズが楽しかったです。ここでしか見られないような木々を間近で見られ、係のお姉さんの話もわかりやすくよかったですし、ゆったりと気持ちよかったです。
西表島から由布島に渡る水牛もここならでは体験でよかったです。島では水牛と一緒に写真も撮れて、時間的にも一周回るのにちょうどいい。お昼ご飯は可もなく不可もなくといったところでした。
全体的には２島を効率よく楽しく周らせていただき、参加してよかったです。

My first time in Ishigaki Island, and I was able to efficiently visit the islands. I was healed by the sound of the sanshin and singing while on the water buffalo cart. I was worried about the weather and didn't reserve a bicycle, but I was able to rent one on-site and enjoyed cycling for the first time in a while.

初めての石垣島　効率的に島々をまわれました。
水牛車の上での三線の音、歌声に癒されました。
お天気が心配で自転車を予約しませんでしたが現地で借りられ久しぶりのサイクリングを楽しみました。

I leisurely rode a water buffalo cart through the streets of old Okinawa. The staff were well-organized and provided great guidance, making for a pleasant experience. It was a good choice for an optional tour during my stay on the cruise, as the timing was just right.

水牛車に乗って昔の沖縄の街並みの中をのんびりと廻りました。スタッフの方も段取り良く案内もしてくれて気持ちよく過ごせました。クルージングの滞在の間のオプショナルツアーとして時間もきちんとしていて選んで良かったです。

I efficiently toured the beautiful spots of Ishigaki Island, which included lunch. The bus guide was very articulate and enjoyable to be with. I was impressed by the stunning scenery of Kabira Bay. I think the tour price was reasonable and a great deal.

石垣島の良い所を効率よく巡って昼食付きでした。
バスガイドさんもとてもお話上手で楽しい方でした。川平湾の景勝は美しく感激しました。
ツァー代金もお安くお得だと思います。

It was unfortunately rainy, but I was glad to be lent a large umbrella. The glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay was optional, but it felt like everyone was participating, making it hard to choose not to go. Overall, I was satisfied!

あいにくの雨でしたが、大きめの傘を貸していただき良かったです。川平湾のグラスボートは自由参加でしたが、みんな参加する流れ？という感じで行かないという選択肢をしにくかったです。でも全体的には満足でした！

This is my second time in Ishigaki Island, but I hadn't been outside the city center. The essence of Ishigaki Island lies outside the central area. There's no need to elaborate. You should go.

石垣島は2度めだが、中心地以外には行っていなかった。
中心部以外にこそ石垣島の本質がある。
詳しく述べる必要はない。
行くべし。

I didn't rent a car, so I was able to fully enjoy the island with a bus tour. The guide's stories were interesting, and it was a lot of fun. I recommend joining the cruise at Kabira Bay.

レンタカーを借りなかったので、バスでのツアーで島を存分に満喫することができました。ガイドさんのお話も面白く、とっても楽しかったです。川平湾でのクルーザーに参加するのをお勧めします。

First of all, they came to pick us up at the hotel meeting point on time. The explanation of the boarding location was also thorough, so we boarded without getting lost. The mangrove tour and water buffalo cart ride were enjoyable, with the staff providing detailed and fun explanations. The only disappointing thing was the bad weather (cloudy and very windy), which made it cold and I ended up feeling chilly (my lack of preparation). The meals were sufficient and enjoyable considering the tour price. If I go again, I would like to choose a warmer time of year.

まずは時間通りにホテル待ち合わせ場所に迎えに来ていただきました。
乗船上においても乗船場所の説明も丁寧で、迷うことなく乗船。マングローブ遊覧＋水牛車はスタッフの説明も丁寧で楽しく過ごせました
唯一残念だったことは天候が悪く（曇りで強風）、寒くて体が冷えてしまったこと（わたくしの準備不足）
食事もツアー料金を考えれば十分な内容で楽しめました
今度行くとすればもう少し温かい時期にしたいです

The meeting time is early, but that means you can be taken to various places without waiting. In winter, if you go to the island terminal a bit earlier, you might also enjoy the sunrise.

While on the moving boat, there were parts where you could see the bottom because the water was so clear, which was fun.

The mangroves of Iriomote Island tend to turn back quite early, possibly due to the tides, so if you want to enjoy Iriomote Island, a different course is recommended. The water buffalo cart to Yubu Island has its own charm with the personalities of the water buffalo, and it was very enjoyable with the staff's talk and songs played on the sanshin. Yubu Island also has beaches and cafes, making it a great place to relax.

Taketomi Island has surprisingly steep areas, and although I had a free walk plan, I rented a bicycle to get around. It was hot, so walking the whole time seemed tough.

It felt more like a set of ride tickets than a tour, but it was nice to have some free time to explore.

集合は早いですが、その分待ち時間無しでいろいろなところに連れて行ってもらえます。
冬は少し早めに離島ターミナルへ行くと日の出も楽しめるかもしれません。

移動の船に乗っている間も途中で底が見えるくらい透き通っているとこもあるので、楽しかったです。

西表島のマングローブは潮の干満の関係なのか、結構早めに引き返すので、西表島を楽しみたい人は別のコースがおすすめです。
由布島へ渡る水牛車は水牛の個性もあり、追いつかれたり、スタッフの方の喋りや三線に歌ととても楽しかったので、おすすめです。由布島はビーチやカフェもあり、のんびりできました。

竹富島は意外と高低差があり、フリーウォークプランにしてましたが、自転車を自分で借りて移動しました。暑かったのもあり、ずっと歩きはしんどそうでした。

ツアーと言うより、乗車券セットのような形でしたが、自由に行動できる時間もあって良かったです。

They efficiently take you around the famous spots in Ishigaki, and if you're sightseeing without a car, they provide guidance even while you're in the vehicle, which I think is great. However, because it's so efficient, it might feel a bit rushed. The glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay was nice, but it would have been even better if there had been time to stroll on the beach. They seem to plan the itinerary to ensure you can make it to the airport or the afternoon Taketomi Island tour, so as long as there are no issues, it seems like you could fit in your flight schedule and other plans afterward.

効率よく石垣の名所をまわってくれるので、車無しの観光の場合は車中でもガイドもしてくれるのでとてもいいと思います。
ただ効率がいいので、バタバタかもしれません。
川平湾ではグラスボートも良かったですが、ビーチを散策する時間があるともっとよかったかも。
空港や午後の竹島ツアーに間に合うようにプランニングしてくれているそうで、トラブルがなければ、飛行機の予定やその後に他の予定を入れても間にあいそうです。

It was my first trip to Ishigaki Island, and I finally got to visit three islands. The mangroves, water buffalo cart ride, and Taketomi Island were all wonderful experiences. Due to scheduling conflicts, I couldn't go to Kohama Island, so I hope to challenge myself to visit it next time.

初めての石垣島旅行で念願の3島巡りでした。
マングローブ・水牛車・竹富島何もかもステキな体験でした。
日程の関係で小浜島に行けなかったので次回は
チャレンジしたいと思います。

I was able to forget the hustle and bustle of daily life while being pulled along by an ox cart through the traditional streets of Okinawa's old houses, and it was refreshing.

昔ながらの沖縄古民家の街並みや牛車にひかれながら慌ただしい日常を忘れることが出来、リフレッシュする事が出来ました

I thought the experience was wonderful. However, the people who were seated with us were extremely lively and loud. While being gently rocked in the water buffalo cart, they sang island songs with the sanshin, and I wanted to immerse myself in the scenery... but there were some annoying people who sang on their own and completely failed to read the situation around them.

体験としては素晴らしいと思いました。
ただ、同席した方たちが、ものすごく盛り上がっていて、うるさかったです。
水牛車にゆらりゆられながら、三線で島唄を歌ってくれて、風景をみながら
浸りたいところ…勝手に歌ったり、まったく周りの状況を読めていない迷惑な方たちでした。

The guides for the cruise, bus, and water buffalo cart were all wonderful. Since the cruise and water buffalo cart may be shared with other tours, it's important to make sure you don't get on the wrong bus or boat. Yubu Island and Taketomi Island have free time, so you can take your time exploring.

クルーズ、バス、水牛車のそれぞれのガイドさんはどなたも素晴らしい。
クルーズや水牛車は、他のツアーと混載になる部分もあるので、自分が乗るべきバスや船を間違えないようにする必要はある。
由布島や竹富島はフリータイムなので、ゆったりと見て回れる。

I participated in a tour to experience the remote islands. It was great that we could efficiently visit specific spots. Yufu Island itself is a botanical garden, and it felt like a foreign country, which was fun. I would have appreciated a bit more time for strolling. My child seemed to really enjoy the cart pulled by water buffalo and was happy to ride on two different water buffaloes during the round trip to the island.

離島を体験したくツアーに参加。
ピンポイントに効率よく回れて良かったです。
由布島自体が植物園になっていて、異国のようで楽しかったです。
散策時間がもう少しあると嬉しかったです。
子供は、牛車が気に入ったようで、島への往復で2回違う水牛ちゃんに乗れたことが嬉しかったようです。

On the first day, I only moved from Ishigaki Airport to Ishigaki Port. On the second day, I took a tour around Ishigaki Island using a regular sightseeing bus from the bus terminal. Along the way, we were guided to historical sites, and lunch was provided at a restaurant. At Kabira Bay, I paid an additional fee to explore the underwater world in a glass-bottom boat. It was much safer and more comfortable than driving a rental car myself. I would like to take a different tour the next time I visit Ishigaki Island.

初日は石垣空港から石垣港へ移動のみ、2日目にバスターミナルから定期観光バスで石垣島一周のツアーを利用しました。途中では名所旧跡を案内され、昼食もレストランで提供があり、川平湾では追加料金を払いグラスボートで海中を散策できました。レンタカーを自分の運転で周るより気兼ねなく安全快適で良かったです。また、石垣島来られる際には違った内容のツアーがあれば利用したいと思います。
