A nearby island that can be reached by boat in 10 minutes from Ishigaki Island. The water buffalo pulling the cart are cute and relaxing at their own pace. However, it felt a bit too commercialized as a tourist spot, and there were a lot of people, making it seem somewhat like a theme park.
石垣島から船で10分で行ける身近な島。
牛車の水牛さんは可愛く、マイペースで癒されます。
ただ、ちょと観光地化され過ぎてて、人も沢山いるのでなんとなくテーマパーク的に見えました。

Taketomi Island has many sandy paths within the village, which can make it a bit tricky to maintain your balance, but cycling was both enjoyable and an efficient way to explore the places I wanted to visit! The rental bicycle shop provides a map of Taketomi Island with numbered sections, so you won't get lost. There are bicycle parking areas at the tourist spots, so you won't have any trouble finding a place to park! The West Pier is less crowded, making it perfect for taking photos!
竹富島は集落内は砂の道が多く、バランスを崩しそうになることもありますが、自転車も楽しく、かつ効率よく行きたいところを巡ることができました!レンタサイクルやさんが整理番号つきの竹富島の地図をくださるので、迷わず行けます♪観光スポットには自転車置き場があるので、置き場に困ることもありません!
西桟橋は人が少ないので、写真撮るにはうってつけです!

The mangrove cruise was disappointing because we couldn't go upstream due to low tide, but it was nice to have various explanations about the types of mangroves.
I enjoyed riding the water buffalo cart, feeling the sea breeze while listening to the stories from the guide and the sound of the sanshin, which made for a relaxing time.
On Taketomi Island, I rode a bicycle to enjoy the island's scenery and ended up getting caught up in searching for star sand.
The only downside was that at Yubu Island, during the typical tourist photo opportunity, we had to wait a long time in the intense sunlight with poor ventilation and no shade. I think photo sessions should be limited to those who want to take pictures. After lunch, we had less than 30 minutes for sightseeing, so I felt that the time spent waiting was a waste. It was disappointing to not have enough time to see the places I wanted to visit on the island.
マングローブクルーズは干潮時に当たった為、上流の方まで行けなくて残念でしたが、マングローブの種類など色々説明があって良かったです。
水牛が一生懸命引いてくれる水牛車に乗り、海風を感じながら、おじさんの話や三線を聞き、のんびりした時間が過ごせました。
竹富島では自転車で島の景色を見ながら回って歩き、最後は星砂探しに夢中になってしまいました。
ただ一つ残念だったのは、由布島で観光地に良くある記念撮影の時に強烈な日差しの中、風通しも悪く日陰もない中を長々と待たされた事です。写真撮影は撮りたい人だけにした方がいいと思います。昼食を食べた後、観光する時間が30分もなかったので、あの待たされた時間がもったいなかったと思いました。島を観て回りたくても時間がなく観たい所が見れずに終わってしまい残念でした。

We used this service as a family of three. After arriving at the airport at 10:15, we rented a car and headed to the ferry terminal for the islands. The outbound trip was on a small boat, while the return was on a large ship. After arriving at Taketomi Island, we took a bus to the center. After checking in, we waited about 15 minutes. When our name was called, we boarded the water buffalo cart. It was a slow and leisurely ride. Before we knew it, the tour was over. We rented bicycles and visited Nagomi Tower, Nishi Sazaki Bridge, and Kaiji Beach, and then it was time for the last ferry. We had a fulfilling half day from the 13:05 meeting until just past 17:00.
家族3人で利用しました。10:15に空港到着後、レンタカーを借りてから、離島ターミナルへ。
往路は小ぶりな船。復路は大型船でした。竹富島に到着してからバスで中心部へ。受付をして待つこと15分程。名前を呼ばれ水牛車へ。ゆっくり、のんびり廻ります。あっと言う間に周回終了。自転車を借りて、なごみの塔、西桟橋、カイジ浜を廻ったら最終便の時刻。13:05の集合から17時ちょい過ぎまで充実した半日を過ごせます。

I participated on the 12th during my stay from August 11th to 14th. We left early in the morning, and the boat ride was quite rocky, which made both my child and me a bit anxious. I'm glad I took motion sickness medication. The water buffalo I wanted to ride allowed us to leisurely experience the essence of Okinawa. I thought it would have been nice if there were lunch boxes prepared for children.

The tour departs at 14:30.
As soon as we arrived at Taketomi Island, we enjoyed a glass-bottom boat (with air conditioning! Apparently, this is the only company that offers it so far). There were no other guests, so we had the boat to ourselves.
After that, we enjoyed a water buffalo cart ride, and the tour ended around 16:15.
It was too hot to feel like going outside, so we waited for the bus to the port in the waiting area (which also had air conditioning).
It was quite a good deal and a lot of fun.

I signed up for a round-trip ferry and water buffalo cart tour. It's overwhelmingly more economical than purchasing separately. The water buffalo tour was well-guided, and above all, it was a special experience to leisurely explore the streets of Taketomi Island while enjoying the scenery from the cart. Be sure to sit at the front of the water buffalo cart! If you sit at the back, the buffalo will be far away, and it will be hard to hear the explanations.

Additionally, the explanation about Taketomi Island was very informative! The townscape had a distinct Okinawan charm, and I was able to enjoy a relaxing time. I definitely want to participate again!
20人前後の人が乗った車を引くことができる超力もちの水牛さん。今回はアーパーくんという水牛の車に乗せてもらいました!体は大きくて迫力があるけれど、目がクリクリで大人しくてとても可愛かったです(^^)ガイドさんの三線の弾き語りも素晴らしかったです。また、竹富島についての説明もとても勉強になりました!

I was able to efficiently visit the attractions of the islands. We crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo, but water flowed into the seats, so I recommend participating with shoes that can get wet. The water buffalo was very cute (*^^*).

I went to look for star sand, but it seemed like many had already been collected, so I couldn't find as much as I expected (^^; Also, I got lost on the way back to the bicycle rental shop and was worried about making it back in time for the meeting, so I think those who are not confident in their sense of direction should allow extra time on the way back.

Since we didn't have much time, we chose a relatively quick tour. On the glass boat, we listened to explanations about the fish and coral while enjoying the view. We rode a water buffalo and explored the main street of Taketomi Island, and finally spent a little time at the beach. If we had arranged everything individually, it would have taken much longer, but since it was all set up, the transitions from the water buffalo to the bus were smooth. It was just as I expected, and it met my goals, so I'm satisfied. If you want to fully enjoy it, I think it's better to take your time and go at your own pace.
時間もなかったので、わりとさっと回れるツアーを選びました。グラスボートでは魚やさんごの説明ききつつ、見て、水牛にのり竹富島の中心街をめぐり、最後にビーチでちょっと時間。個別に手配して回るともっと時間かかったと思いますが、セットになっていたのでベルトコンベアー式に水牛からバスなどスムーズでした。まあ思っていた通りで、目的通りなのでいいです。しっかり満喫したいなら時間をとって自分たちのペースで回ればいいと思います。

This was my first trip to Ishigaki Island, and since I was traveling with my 85-year-old mother, I chose this tour because it was not too strenuous and allowed us to visit various places.
Even though it was a tour, I appreciated that the transportation was well arranged at key points, giving it a feel of personal exploration. I think it would be impossible to travel this efficiently on our own.
During the mangrove cruising, I felt like I was traveling through a jungle river in another country. On the water buffalo cart, I was lucky enough to sit at the very front both going and returning, so I could enjoy the scenery of the island straight ahead as the water buffalo's rear, shoulders, and horns swayed gently.
On Taketomi Island, we went cycling. It was challenging for my mother, but we took it slow, sometimes getting off to push the bike, and enjoyed the charming houses, the lush large trees of the south, and the unique shisa statues. At Kaiji Beach, we were also able to look for star sand. It was great that we could choose a return boat that was an hour later.
Thank you for the wonderful memories!

I thought the tour that visits three islands in one day was very efficient. During the mangrove cruise, the guide provided explanations, allowing us to learn a lot, and we were able to reach a rare tree (I forgot the name...) that we couldn't access during low tide, which was great.
When crossing to Yubu Island, we rode a water buffalo cart and enjoyed a leisurely time while listening to Okinawan folk songs. I noticed that there was a family tree for the water buffaloes, and each one had a proper name, which made me realize how well they are cared for.
On Taketomi Island, I chose the glass-bottom boat and bus tour. The glass-bottom boat swayed a bit. I was expecting to see beautiful coral reefs, but I learned that the corals have died off and are currently slowly regenerating. While I was able to see sea anemones, clownfish, and colorful fish, it felt a bit lacking.
The microbus tour taught us about the lives of the people on Taketomi Island and allowed us to find star sand, making for an efficient and easy sightseeing experience.
Although it was a brief visit to the three islands, I recommend this tour as it guides you through the highlights of each.
一日で3つの島を廻ってくるツアーで効率が良いと思いました。
マングローブクルーズではガイドの説明が有るためよく知ることが出来、引き潮ではたどり着けない珍しい木(名前忘れました・・)のところまで行くこともできとても良かったです。

グラスボートはちょっぴり揺れます。
サンゴ礁の美しい海を期待していたのですが、サンゴが死滅し現在は少しづつ再生してきているとのことでした。イソギンチャクとクマノミや色鮮やかな魚は見ることが出来ましたがちょっと物足りないかも。
マイクロバスで竹富島の人々の生活を教えてくれたり星の砂を見つけたりとこれもまた効率よく楽に観光出来ました。

On Iriomote Island, the guide provided detailed explanations about the mangroves and the flora and fauna while we enjoyed the boat tour, so it was engaging and fun! My stay on Yubu Island was also very relaxing with the water buffalo, and I had a great time. However, among the elderly men guiding the water buffalo, there was one 88-year-old man who was hitting the buffalo with a stick while leading them, and it was really sad to watch because the buffalo looked so pitiful. The buffalo he was hitting was also an elderly 17-year-old, working hard to carry heavy people, and it was truly heartbreaking. The other men were treating the buffalo very kindly, so that one man stood out as unusual. According to the elderly man who was with my water buffalo cart, that old man doesn't change no matter how much he is warned. It's hopeless. Is there anything that can be done about it? It was such a wonderful experience overall, but that part really hurt my heart. The experience on Taketomi Island afterward also became a lifelong memory. Overall, it was a very good activity, but it's really unfortunate about the water buffalo situation.
西表島ではガイドの方が詳しくマングローブについてや動植物について説明してくれながらでの遊覧船でしたので飽きずに楽しめました!!次の由布島での滞在も水牛にとっても癒されましたし、すごく楽しかったです。ただ、水牛を誘導するおじいさん達の中で1人だけ88歳の一番年配の方が、棒で水牛を叩きながら先導していて、水牛がとても可愛そうで見ていられませんでした。そのおじいさんに叩かれている水牛もたしか17歳のお年寄りで一生懸命重い人間達を運んでいるのに本当に可愛そうでした。。他の人達は水牛にとても優しく接していたのでそのおじいさんだけ異様でした。私の乗った水牛車のおじいさんいわく、あのおじいはいくら注意されても変わらない。だめだ。との事でした。なんとかならないでしょうか?最高な体験だっただけにそこだけが胸が痛かったです。そのあとの竹富島での体験も一生の思い出になりました。総合的にとてもいいアクティビティですが、ほんと、牛車の件だけ残念です。

I participated in the 2:30 PM boat. It was cheaper than arranging it individually, so it was a good deal. After seeing the water buffalo, I rented a bicycle for an hour. Since I had to catch the return boat by 5 PM, it felt rushed. The second floor of the boat is hot like a sauna, so I recommend sitting downstairs in the summer. I'm glad I could leave my luggage.
14時30分の船で参加しました。個人で手配するより安く行けてお得です。水牛の後、自転車を1時間借りました。帰りの船が17時までに乗らないといけないので、時間が短くてバタバタでした。
船の2階はサウナのように暑いので、夏は下に乗るのがオススメ。
荷物を預けられて良かったです
