All Reviews for 沖繩活動

We participated as a group of 12, and the schedule was nicely balanced, allowing for some free time while we were able to explore the three islands in one day. The lunch was a buffet style, and we were able to enjoy a lot of Okinawan cuisine. It turned out to be a very fulfilling day!

12人の大所帯での参加でしたがタイムスケジュールが程よく自由時間もありつつ1日で離島三島を回れました。昼食もバイキング形式で沖縄料理をたくさん食べることができました。大変充実した1日になりました！

Arrived in Ishigaki via a transfer in Naha from Tokyo. Had lunch at Ishigaki Airport, and then went to Taketomi Island on this tour. I was able to enjoy it without wasting any time and felt satisfied. Thanks to that, the next day I had a full day of activities in Miyako Island. Instead of rushing through sightseeing, I was able to take my time and enjoy it thoroughly.

東京から那覇で乗り継ぎ石垣に到着。ランチを石垣空港で、その後このツアーで竹富島へ。
無駄なくで楽しめ満足できました。おかげで次の日は1日かけて宮古島へアクティビティ。早足の観光でなくゆっくり十分楽しめました。

It was my first time in Ishigaki and my first time visiting an outer island. I recommend it for those who want to explore efficiently. Since there is a lot of travel by vehicle, it’s enjoyable for both elderly people and those with small children. The explanations from the guides at each stop were fun. Since I have an elementary school student, I signed up for a free walk on Taketomi Island and rented a bicycle on-site. Biking around was very pleasant.

初めての石垣、初めての離島でした。効率よく回りたい方におすすめします。
乗り物での移動が多いので、高齢の方も小さいお子さん連れも楽しめる内容です。
その時々のガイドさんからの解説が楽しかったです。
小学生がいるので竹富島はフリーウォークで申し込み、現地で自転車を借りました。
自転車観光、とても気持ちよかったです。

Since the day I participated was the beginning of April, I was picked up at the hotel around 5:50 AM.

The river water wasn't cold, and as we moved out toward the sea, the water temperature felt warm enough. I participated in stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and fell into the river once, but the water temperature was just right, making for a refreshing wake-up call, haha. The water level was shallow enough to stand, so it wasn't a problem when I fell.

I also got to see flocks of birds taking off over the mangroves, and it was wonderful to enjoy the sunrise amidst the gentle sound of the waves.

I took many photos with the sunrise in the background, which made for great memories.

I definitely want to experience this again!

参加した日が4月の最初だったため、5時50分ごろにホテルまでお迎えに来ていただきました。

川の水は冷たくなく、沖に向かって進んでいくと温かいと感じるくらいの水温でした。
supで参加して、一回川に落ちましたが、水温もちょうど良く、良い目覚めになりました　笑
足もつく水位なので、落ちても問題なかったです。

鳥の群れがマングローブの上を飛び立つ様子も見られましたし、緩やかな波の音の中、朝日を拝むのは最高でした。

朝日をバックにした写真もたくさん撮って頂いていい記念になりました。

またぜひ体験したいと思います！

I received polite advice at SUP and had a fun experience. Although we couldn't go to the Blue Cave for snorkeling, the weather was nice, and I got to see sea turtles, which made for a delightful time.

ＳＵＰでは丁寧にアドバイスをいただき、楽しく体験できました。
シュノーケリングは青の洞窟には行けませんでしたが、お天気も良く、ウミガメにも会えて楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。

We were blessed with good weather and had a great time enjoying the ox cart and the guide's folk songs, surrounded by blooming bougainvillea and deigo flowers. The timing was perfect.

お天気にも恵まれ、牛車もガイドさんの民謡も楽しみながら、ブーゲンビリア、デイゴの花も盛りの中、良い時間を過ごせました。時期的に良かったです。

Although the number of routes is limited, there are options to go around the island and to Hirakubo Cape. Just going from Ishigaki city to Hirakubo Cape was worth it. The free pass exchange voucher can be purchased on the day, so it's best to buy it a little before you plan to use it.

本数は少ないですが、島一周線や平久保崎へ行くルートがあります。
石垣市街地から平久保崎まで行くだけで元が取れました。
フリーパスの引換券は当日購入可なので、利用の少し前に購入するのが良いでしょう。

Even though it's late March, is it scorching hot in Taketomi Island?! For Tokyoites who are still not used to the heat, riding in a covered water buffalo cart while listening to the guide's stories and the sound of the sanshin was the best experience for a leisurely island tour.

This tour, which includes transportation between Ishigaki Port and Taketomi Port, as well as a shuttle bus and water buffalo cart sightseeing, is a great deal. We took the ferry departing from Ishigaki at 2:30 PM and returning from Taketomi at 5:00 PM, which was just the right timing.

3月下旬とはいえ、竹富島は猛暑？！　まだ暑さに慣れていない東京人にとっては、屋根付きの水牛車に乗って、案内人の話や三線の音色を聞きながらゆっくり島巡りができて最高の経験でした。
石垣港⇔竹富港⇔送迎バス+水牛車観光のこのツアーはおトクです。私達は午後14:30石垣発＆竹富発17:00のフェリーで、時間的にちょうどよかったです。

We participated by splitting into a bus team and a free (bicycle) group. The forecast was cloudy with rain, and there was occasional light rain on Taketomi Island. I brought a raincoat but didn't need to wear it. The sea at Nishi Sanchu Bridge seemed beautiful. To visit all the highlights, you need plenty of time, and the last ferry was at 5 PM.

バスチームとフリー（自転車）に分かれての参加。曇雨予報で竹富島は時々小雨。カッパ持ってったけど着なくて大丈夫でした。西桟橋の海が綺麗だったようです。見どころを全部行くには時間がたっぷり必要で、フェリーは最後の17時でした。

On a day with cloudy and rainy forecasts, the strong winds made the ferry ride to our destination quite bumpy, causing even adults to feel seasick and scared. However, we calmed down during the mangrove tour, enjoyed a ride on an ox cart, and the kids were thrilled to see the large Papilio butterfly and the golden chrysalis at the Yufu Island Butterfly Garden. The bus tour was well-paced with informative explanations, allowing us to efficiently explore the area. It rained while we were on the boat, but elsewhere it was just cloudy, so we managed to have a fun time. It would have been perfect if it had been sunny.

曇雨予報の日、風が強く行きのフェリーが揺れまくり大人も船酔いand怖さで大変でした。その後のマングローブ遊覧で落ち着き、牛車も楽しめ、由布島蝶々園の大きなオオゴマダラと金色のサナギに子供大喜びでした。バスツアーはテンポよく説明もあり効率よく周れました。船中に雨が降りましたが、他はなんとか曇だったので楽しく周れました。晴れなら最高でした。

Due to the weather and the number of participants, we switched from SUP + snorkeling at Cape Kawaiwa to mangrove SUP. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed at first, but it turned out to be incredibly fun!

Akiyama, our guide, kept the atmosphere lively and engaged with us, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the experience throughout✨. Thanks to that, I was able to naturally converse with other guests, and the overall vibe of the tour was really great! The time spent leisurely moving through the mangroves was also very pleasant, and it turned out to be a fantastic experience in its own right🌿. Although the plan changed, it became a wonderful memory! Thank you so much😊.

天候と催行人数の関係で、川平湾でのSUP＋青の洞窟シュノーケリングからマングローブSUPに変更になりました。
正直ちょっと残念だなーと思っていたのですが、結果めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！

担当してくださった秋山さんがずっと明るく話しかけてくださって、場を盛り上げてくれたおかげで終始リラックスして楽しめました✨
そのおかげで他のお客さんとも自然に会話ができて、ツアー全体がすごくいい雰囲気だったのも印象的でした！
マングローブの中をゆったり進む時間もすごく気持ちよくて、これはこれで大当たりでした🌿
変更になったけど、むしろ良い思い出になりました！ありがとうございました😊

I realized this time that it costs over 1,000 yen one way just to go from my home to the city, so I should use this for regular trips. Without knowing this, I used a touch payment for the outbound trip and took advantage of the one-day free pass for the return. From next time, I want to make sure to use it for the outbound trip as well.

自宅から街中へ行くだけで片道千円以上かかるので、普段使いで使うべきということが今回分かりました。そうと知らずに片道はタッチ決済で乗ってしまい、帰りはこの1日フリーパスを利用しました。次回からは行きの時点で使うようにしたいと思います。

The weather was nice, and our guide was very cheerful and fun. Every moment from the talks inside the tour until it ended was enjoyable! There are other tours available, and I'm looking forward to participating in those as well! Even those who can't swim are well taken care of, so anyone can join with peace of mind!

天気も良くて担当ガイドの方もすごく明るく楽しい社内の中のトークからツアーが終わるまでの全ての時間が楽しかったです！
また違うツアーがありますので、そちらの方も参加するのが楽しみです！
泳げない方でもしっかり対応してくださるので誰でも安心して参加できます！

We participated in Hina's tour as a family. There were small children with us, but we were taught very carefully. Everyone in the family was very satisfied. We would like to participate again.

ひなさんのツアーに家族で参加しました。
小さい子どももいましたが、とても丁寧に教えてもらいました。家族全員大満足でした。また参加したいです。

Finally got to try SUP at Kawahira Bay. The wind blowing down from the mountains was strong, making it difficult to maintain balance, but I was able to glide smoothly over the water. Even if I fell into the sea, I felt safe wearing a life jacket. The instructor was very attentive, so even beginners can give it a try!

*The photo is of the scenery at Kawahira Bay, which is different from the location where we did SUP.

念願の川平湾でのSUP。
山から吹き下ろす風が強く、バランスを取るのが大変でしたが、気持ち良く海の上を進むことができました。海に落ちてしまっても、ライフジャケットを着ているので安心です。
インストラクターが丁寧に教えてくれるので、初心者の方でもチャレンジできます！

※写真はSUPを実施する場所とは異なる川平湾の風景です。

In the morning, the weather was nice, and while cruising through the mangroves in Iriomote Island and crossing to Yubu Island by water buffalo cart, a pleasant breeze was blowing, making it a very enjoyable experience. Riding the water buffalo cart was a first for me, and the sound of the boatman's shamisen added a charming touch, allowing me to savor a relaxed atmosphere.

When we took the ferry to Taketomi Island, it started to rain, and since I had signed up for a cycling course on the island, I was worried. However, the rain stopped partway through, and I was glad I could cycle around the island. I was able to reach the sea, so I felt it was a good choice to go with the cycling course.

I definitely want to visit again when the weather and climate are nice.

午前中は天気も良く、西表島でのマングローブを船で周る時と、由布島へ水牛車で渡る時は、心地いい風も吹いててとても気持ちよく過ごせました。水牛車も初めての体験で、船頭さんの三味線も情緒があって、ゆったりとした雰囲気を味わえて良かったです。
竹富島へフェリーで渡る時に雨が降ってきて、島でサイクリングのコースを申し込んでいたので、心配してましたが、途中から雨も止み、自転車で島をまわれて良かったです。海の方まで行けたので、サイクリングのコースにして良かったと思いました。
またぜひ、気候と天気の良い時に訪れたいなと思いました。

The snorkeling guides were Makocchan and Soutakun! Both were cheerful and friendly, and their explanations were easy to understand, making it enjoyable and reassuring even for first-timers.

The snorkeling location changed due to sea conditions, but it turned out to be a great decision! I was thrilled to swim with sea turtles, which was a dream come true 🐢✨✨ I got so excited that I almost drowned... haha.

And for my first time on a SUP, we went into the mangroves. The quiet and surreal scenery was breathtaking... it was incredibly healing!! ✨✨

I did fall off the SUP a few times, but that just added to the fun, and I made some amazing memories. ☺️

Thank you so much, Makocchan and Soutakun! I definitely want to go again! When I do, I hope to have you as my guides again! 🤘

シュノーケリングのガイドはまこっちゃんSUPはそうたくん！
どちらも明るくて気さくで説明もわかりやすく、初めてでも安心して楽しめました。

海の状況でシュノーケリングの場所は変更になりましたがそれが大当たり！！
念願の海亀と一緒に泳げて感動🐢✨✨
興奮しすぎてあわや溺れるかと…笑

そして初めてのSUPはマングローブの中へ。
静かで幻想的な景色が広がって…
めっちゃ癒されたーーーッ！！✨✨

しっかりSUPから落ち、掴みは👍
それも含めて楽しくて最高の思い出ができました。☺️

まこっちゃん、そうたくん
本当にありがとうございました😊
また絶対行きたいです！
その時はまたガイドよろしくーー🤘

This was an activity I wanted to experience at least once. The water buffalo crossing the sea is really cute. I had a wonderful experience on Yufujima as well. The jungle cruise on Nakama River was also fantastic.

１度は体験したいアクテビティでした。海を渡る水牛はホントに可愛いです。由布島でも素晴らしい体験出来ました。
仲間川のジャングルクルーズも最高でした。

The guide, who was a water buffalo driver, was skilled and made the experience enjoyable. They explained the island's traditional events and culture, as well as current issues and challenges, which provided a great experience.

It was a wonderful island-hopping experience! I was worried about getting seasick on the boat from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island, but that was not a problem at all. The tour was conducted on time for everything, and we had enough time to look at souvenirs. On Taketomi Island, you can choose the return boat at either 4 PM or 5 PM, but I definitely recommend the 5 PM option. If you take the 4 PM boat, you won't have enough time for sightseeing. I feel like there are more star sands than there were 20 years ago!

とても素晴らしい離島巡りでした！石垣島〜西表島までの船に酔わないか心配でしたが、そこは全く問題なかったです。
ツアーは全て時間通りに行われました。お土産を見る時間もちゃんと取れました。
竹富島では帰る船を16時or17時で選べますが、絶対17時がいいです。16時だと観光時間が足りません。20年前より星砂が増えた気がします！

The tour included snorkeling at the Phantom Island and a mangrove canoe experience, but due to the tides, we had to change the schedule to visit the Phantom Island in the morning and do the canoeing in the evening. As a result, we ended up with a sunset canoe experience, which was fantastic!

1. Phantom Island
Since it's not usually visible, I recommend checking the tide chart before making a reservation. It's incredibly beautiful and definitely a place you should visit! It might even be my favorite spot on Ishigaki Island!?

Additionally, the guide was very kind and responsive to our requests, providing us with many wonderful photos, which made us very satisfied.

2. Canoe
Considering sunburn, I recommend the sunset option! We smoothly paddled through the mangroves while listening to the sounds of birds, experiencing the jungle. The guide took many natural-looking photos, which again left us very satisfied. On our way back, they kindly recommended a great place to eat.

幻の島　シュノーケリングツアーとマングローブカヌー体験でしたが、潮の関係で続けてではなく、朝から幻の島、夕方からカヌーに変更になりました。
結果、サンセットカヌーになり最高でした！
①幻の島
普段は見られないため、潮見表で確認後予約をお勧めします。
とても綺麗で、絶対に行くべき場所！
石垣島で1番好きな場所かも!?
また、ガイドさんがとーっても親切でリクエストに応えて下さり、素敵な写真を沢山頂き、大満足でした。

②カヌー
日焼けを考えるとサンセットがお勧め！
マングローブのなかをカヌーでスイスイ漕いで鳥の鳴き声をききながらジャングル体験をできました。
ガイドさんがとっても自然な写真を沢山撮って頂き、これまた大満足。
帰りにはお勧めの食事屋さんも親切に教えていただきました。

This was my second time participating, and I definitely recommend joining if you travel to Ishigaki Island. You can explore efficiently without wasting time, and it's easy since there's no driving involved.

二度目の参加でしたが、石垣島に旅行したら是非とも参加をおすすめします。
無駄なく効率良く回れますし運転もないから楽です。

Crossing the island by water buffalo cart was a charming and wonderful experience. I was also impressed by the extensive mangroves. The bus driver's stories on Iriomote Island were very informative as well. Thank you very much. It was a bit disappointing that the weather was gloomy.

水牛車での島渡り、趣があり、素敵な体験ができました。
広範囲のマングローブも感動しました。
西表島のバスの運転手さんのお話もとても参考になりました。
ありがとうございまました。
天気がぐずついていたのがちょっと残念でした。

They taught me how to ride carefully, and I was able to ride easily even as a beginner. I was moved by the beauty of the ocean, the stunning scenery, and the pleasant breeze! I'm so glad I did it!!

Unfortunately, due to bad weather, I couldn't go snorkeling at the Blue Cave, but they were very accommodating. I want to try again!

乗り方から丁寧に教えてくださり、初めてでも簡単に乗ることができました。
海の美しさや綺麗な景色、心地よい風、全てに感動しました！やってよかったです！！

残念ながら天候不良で、青の洞窟のシュノーケリングはできませんでしたが、丁寧に対応していただきました。リベンジしたいです！

I initially planned for my grandchildren to ride the water buffalo cart, but I felt like I wanted to ride a little longer! The waiting time was quite long, and by the time we boarded the boat, there wasn't enough time to explore the island. That was how I felt. Other than that, I didn't have any particular complaints. If I have the opportunity again, I think I would like to try activities on Yufu Island and Iriomote Island. Thank you very much.

取り敢えず孫たちを水牛車に乗らしたくて計画しましたが、もう少しだけ長く乗りたかったかなぁ！？という感じです。待たされた時間が長くて、船の乗船時間には、中途半端島内巡りしようと思っても時間がない。そう感じでした。後は、特に不満は、ありませんでした。また機会があれば、由布島、西表島のアクティビティに挑戦しようかなぁと思います。ありがとう御座いました。

When boarding the bus, I presented the voucher and exchanged it for a paper free pass, which was a smooth process. Unlike the digital free passes sold by other companies, I don't need to open the app every time I get on or off, which is great. I already got my money's worth just by traveling from the airport to Kabira Bay and Ishigaki city.

バス乗車時にバウチャーを提示し、紙のフリーパスに交換しますがスムーズに引き換え出来ました。
他社販売のデジタルフリーパスと違い、毎回乗降時にアプリを開く必要がないので良いです。
空港〜川平湾〜石垣市街地の移動だけで元が取れました。

I realized the importance of rowing in sync rather than selfishly. At first, I thought it wasn't fun when I was rowing alone and kept bumping into branches or colliding with others. But when I rowed together properly, we gained speed and stability, and it became really enjoyable.

自分勝手にこぐのではなく、いきを合わしてこぐ、大切さが分かりました。最初、一人でこいで木の枝にぶつかったり、他とあたったりと楽しくないと思いました。でもしっかりいっしよにこいだらスピードがでたり、安定したりとても楽しいと思いました。

"One-day experience of the Mangrove SUP or Canoe Tour with optional landing on the Phantom Island and snorkeling!" Unfortunately, due to the weather, we couldn't go canoeing and had to shorten it to half a day. The weather in Ishigaki Island can change quickly, so it couldn't be helped.

We set off in the rain in the morning. By the time we arrived at the Phantom Island, the rain had stopped, and it was beautiful! After that, we moved on to snorkeling. It was incredibly beautiful, and I was very satisfied.

Thank you, Hayabusa-kun!

『マングローブSUPorカヌーツアー 選べる幻の島上陸＆シュノーケリング付きも！』の１日体験の予定が、天気の都合でカヌーには乗れず半日に。石垣島の天気は変わりやすいのでこれはやむなし。
午前中雨の中出発。幻の島に到着する頃には雨もやみ、きれいでしたよー。
そこから移動してシュノーケリング。すんごくきれいで大満足。
隼くんありがとう〜

I received my ticket at the counter of the island terminal and boarded the ship. With transportation to and from the port, I was able to take a stroll around the island during the extra time I had!

I was able to make good use of my time from lunch until the evening (^^).

港から送り迎え付きで、余った時間で島内のお散歩にも行けました！

ランチしてから夜までのいい時間の使い方ができました(^^)

This is a classic course for island hopping around Ishigaki Island, including a round trip on a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, a mangrove tour on the Nakama River, and free time on Taketomi Island. We were able to efficiently explore all three islands.

On the water buffalo cart, the guide played the sanshin and sang Okinawan songs, and the bus driver shared interesting stories about the island!

西表島〜由布島へ水牛車で往復、マングローブ群生の仲間川遊覧、竹富島でのフリータイムという石垣島周辺の離島巡りの定番コースのですが、3島を効率よく観光できました。
水牛車ではガイドの方が三線を弾きながら沖縄の歌を歌ってくださり、バスでは運転手の方の島のお話も面白かったです！
