The 5-day free pass is a great deal 🉐. A round trip from the city to the airport is 1,120 yen, and considering unlimited rides on the island pass, it's cost-effective. You can earn points with credit card payments, and by posting your experiences, you can earn 100 points for each submission on Veltra.

If you're planning to explore Ishigaki Island using public transportation, this pass is very cost-effective and helpful. Just by visiting a few major spots like the airport round trip and Kabira Bay, you can quickly get your money's worth.
However, it's important to note that the bus frequency is extremely low. Some routes only have one bus per hour or even just a few buses every few hours, so if you're not careful, you could waste a lot of time waiting. I strongly recommend checking the latest timetable on the official Higashi Transport website in advance and planning your schedule down to the minute. It's especially crucial to have a flexible plan to avoid missing your return trip.
石垣島を公共交通機関で観光するなら、このパスは非常にコスパが良く、経済的で助かりました。空港往復や川平湾などの主要スポットを数ヶ所回るだけで、すぐに元が取れます。
ただし、注意が必要なのはバスの運行本数が極めて少ない点です。1時間に1本、あるいは数時間に1本しかない路線もあるため、行き当たりばったりだと待ち時間で大幅に時間をロスしてしまいます。東運輸の公式サイトで最新の時刻表を事前に確認し、分刻みでスケジュールを組んでおくことを強くお勧めします。特に帰りの便を逃すと大変なので、余裕を持った計画が大切です。

This is a very economical bus pass that allows you to ride for a full five days (120 hours) for just 2000 yen. You show the Veltra voucher at your first boarding to receive your ticket. The boarding time is indicated, and from that point, you can ride for 120 hours. Depending on your boarding time, you can ride for up to six days.
You can also board from Ishigaki Airport, so there’s no waste. The second and third images show the places I visited by bus. However, there are quite a few bus stops with limited service, so you need to carefully check the timetable and plan your schedule. If you get the timing wrong, you may not be able to return to your hotel or the airport.
5日間ではなく、丸5日間(120時間)2000円でバスに乗車できる、とってもお得なバスのフリーパスです。
一番最初の乗車時にベルトラのバウチャーを見せて、チケットを貰います。乗車時間が出てるので、それから120時間乗車可能。
乗車時間次第で6日間乗車できます。
石垣空港からも乗車できるので、無駄がありません。
2・3枚目の画像は、バスで行ったところ。
ただ本数は少なめのバス停も結構あるので、時刻表をじっくり見て予定を組み立てる必要があります。
時間を間違えると、ホテルや空港へ戻れなくなります。
一緒に行動する人数次第ですが、レンタカーの費用を抑えることができます。
私たちは、基本的にバスに乗り、旅行の最終日のみレンタカーを利用しました。

There are many hotels within walking distance from the island terminal, making it very convenient. The usage is also very simple. When boarding from the airport, show the voucher issued by Veltra to the driver and receive your ticket (round trip). The driver will detach the ticket when you get off, so please present it as is. The bus has a front boarding and rear alighting system.
離島ターミナルから徒歩圏内にはホテルがたくさんありますので便利です。利用方法もとても簡単です。空港から乗車する時にVeltra発行のバウチャーをドライバーさんに見せ、乗車券(往復)を受け取ってください。降車時にドライバーさんが乗車券を切り離しますので、そのまま提示してください。バスは前乗り前降りです。
The bus does not have a cargo area. If you have a lot of luggage or are traveling with a large group, I think it would be a good idea to consider using a taxi.
バスに貨物室がありません。お荷物が多い方や人数が多い方はタクシー利用も検討されるとよいと思います。

Since you need to choose the date of your outbound journey, it's advisable to check the East Bus timetable and establish a rough plan of your activities before making a purchase.

Since tickets can only be purchased with cash on the bus and in the office, it was perfect for someone like me who prefers using cards! Also, I just had to show the ticket to the driver without having to scan it, so I could keep it in a transparent phone case and show it easily without losing it, which was very convenient!
バスの車内や事務所では現金でしか購入できないのでカード派の私にはピッタリでした!また、チケットをかざしたりせずに運転手さんに見せるだけなので透明なスマホケースに挟んでそのまま見せれて無くさず快適でした!

While I was waiting in the airport arrival lobby, imagining an elderly man, a female driver came to pick me up!
Shortly after departing, she suddenly slammed on the brakes and exclaimed, "Wow! No way!" A pair of wild peacocks greeted us, and one of them was a white peacock! Thanks to her constant attention to the surroundings while driving, we also encountered a hawk and a wild boar (with detailed explanations about their ecology!).
Since I had consulted with the tour company in advance about whether it was feasible to visit my desired spots, the driver had already arranged an efficient order for the itinerary. Additionally, from the conversations during the course, she spontaneously incorporated hidden gems that we would likely enjoy, and each one was fantastic.
Moreover, she said, "Don't worry about the time; feel free to take your time and enjoy," which allowed us to savor each destination without rushing, which was very nice.
Overall, the driver was filled with love for Ishigaki Island and a desire to convey the island's charm to us within the limited time we had. It wasn't just about efficiency or convenience; the experiences and information we gained were incredible.
I am truly grateful to have had this driver, and I feel full of appreciation.
I would definitely love to ride with her again!
空港の到着ロビーで年配のおじさんを想像して待っていたら女性ドライバーさんが迎えに来てくれました!
出発して間もなく「わっ!うそっ!」と急停車!野生の孔雀のつがい、しかも一羽はなんと白孔雀!!が出迎えてくれました。常に周りに注意をはらって運転してくださるおかげで、サシバー(猛禽類)やウリ坊にも会えました。
(生態などのすごく詳しい解説つき!)
事前に希望スポットを周るのに無理がないかツアー会社に相談していたため、ドライバーさんが予め効率の良い順序を組んでおいてくださったうえ、そのコースや道中の会話から我々が好きそうな穴場スポットを即興で組み込んでくださり、そのどれもが素晴らしかったです。
また「時間は適当に調整しますから気にしないで見てきていいですよー」と言ってくださり、行く先々をゆったり慌てずに味わうことができたのもとても良かったです。
とにかくドライバーさんが、石垣島愛と、限りある時間で島の魅力を最大限伝えようとしてくださる気持ちに溢れていて、単なる効率や利便性だけでなく、得られる経験と情報量がすごい。
このドライバーさんで本当に良かったですし、感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。
きっとまた乗せていただきたいです!

When taking the bus from the airport, I initially went to the wrong bus company, but the driver kindly informed me that I needed to go to the other one.
When boarding the bus from the airport, you show the driver your voucher on your smartphone to exchange it for a ticket. On the return trip, you just hand over the ticket when you get off.
It's recommended because you don't have to worry about having small change, and it's a bit cheaper than paying in cash.
空港からバスに乗る際、最初は他のバス会社の方に行ってしまいましたが、運転手さんがもう1つの方だと教えてくれました。
空港からの行きのバスで乗る時に運転手さんにスマホでバウチャーを見せ、チケットに引き換えてもらいます。帰りは降りる際に、チケットを渡すだけ。
小銭の準備を気にしなくて良いのと、現金支払いするより少しお得なのでオススメです。
