All Reviews for 沖繩活動

I participated in a snorkeling and SUP tour. Both activities took place in the rain, but the timing for the SUP was particularly heavy downpour. However, thanks to the guide's thorough lectures and explanations, I had a very enjoyable time. Thank you!

シュノーケリングとサップのツアーに参加させていただきました。
両方とも雨天の中の催行でしたが、特にサップのタイミングはなかなかの土砂降り。
でも、ガイドさんの丁寧なレクチャーと説明で、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
ありがとうございました！

I visited in early June 🏝️ and the tour guide on the sightseeing bus in Iriomote Island 🚌 was very entertaining. The explanation about the mangroves was thorough and easy to understand. The water buffalo 🦬 that took us from Iriomote Island to Yubu Island was very adorable and worked hard to pull us along 👊. The songs and stories along the way were also fascinating! It was fun. I chose a free plan for Taketomi Island, but walking to the center was quite tiring 🚶‍♂️, so I relied on the bus shuttle that was available when we arrived at the port. For some reason, I rode a water buffalo again on Taketomi Island 🦬, and it was so cute to see it walking on land 🎵. There was also a shuttle back to the port, making for a meaningful day visiting three islands from early in the morning 😁. It was great 👍!

6月初旬に訪れました🏝️ 西表島の観光バス🚌のガイドさんのトークが面白かったです。
マングローブも丁寧で分かりやすい案内をしていただきました。西表島から由布島に渡る水牛🦬さんが、とても愛らしく？頑張って引っ張ってくれました👊その途中の唄やお話しも興味津々！楽しかっです。竹富島はフリープランにしたけど、やはり中心部まで歩くのは🚶‍♂️しんどいので港に着くとバスの送迎があったので頼りました。竹富島でも何故かまた水牛に乗りました🦬　陸を歩く姿も愛くるしかったです🎵　帰りも港まで送迎があり、朝早くから一日有意義な3島めぐりになりました😁良かったです👍

After entering the Blue Cave, I went snorkeling over the coral. The weather was nice, and the Blue Cave looked beautiful, which was great.

青の洞窟の中に入ったあと、珊瑚の上をシュノーケリングしました。天気も良く、青の洞窟が綺麗に見えて、良かったです。

Even in the rain, the mangrove canoeing became the best memory! 🛶☔️ Paddling in sync with my friends, I felt excited every time we passed through the mangrove tunnels! It felt just like being part of an expedition.

During the blue cave snorkeling, the sun miraculously came out, and it was so moving! ✨ I was able to see the coral reefs and cute fish up close, and I truly had a wonderful time. 🐠💙

It ended in the blink of an eye, and I had so much fun that I thought, "I want to swim more!" 🏝️

雨でも最高の思い出になったマングローブカヌー🛶☔️
友達と息を合わせて漕ぎ、マングローブのトンネルを抜けるたびにワクワク！まるで探検隊になった気分でした。

青の洞窟シュノーケルでは、奇跡的に太陽が出てくれて感動✨
珊瑚礁や可愛い魚たちを間近で見ることができて、本当に幸せな時間を過ごすことができました🐠💙

あっという間に終わってしまって、「もっと泳いでいたい！」と思うほど楽しかったです🏝️

It was very good! The guide was very kind and attentive, which was great! I definitely want to participate again if I have the chance!

とても良かったです！
ガイドさんはとても親切丁寧な対応でとても良かったです！
また機会があれば是非参加したいです！

I had an experience that I usually can't have. I enjoyed the guidance and explanations during the bus ride on Iriomote Island, not to mention the ox cart ride.

普段できない体験をさせていただきました。
牛車はもちろんのこと、西表島のバスの運転中の案内・説明には楽しませていただきました。

The guide's extensive knowledge and the recent sighting of sea turtles made for a wonderful memory! Thank you!

ガイドさんのたくさんの知識と、直近でウミガメが見れてとてもいい思い出になりました！ありがとうございます！

I participated in snorkeling for the first time, and I was able to enjoy it without any worries because I received thorough instructions! The Blue Cave was beautiful, and there were plenty of fish and stunning corals further out! If you're going to snorkel in Ishigaki, I highly recommend this tour!

初めてシュノーケル参加させていだだいたんですが丁寧にレクチャーしてもらったので不安なく楽しめました！青の洞窟も綺麗で沖の方は魚もいっぱいいてサンゴもとても綺麗でした！石垣でシュノーケルするならこのツアーとてもおすすめです！

Snorkeling in the beautiful sea was amazing! There were so many fish underwater, and just watching them made the time fly by. The guide provided a lot of explanations about the fish and more, allowing me to learn a lot about Ishigaki Island. It was so much fun!

とても綺麗な海でのシュノーケリングは最高でした！
海の中にたくさんの魚がいて、その魚たちを見ているだけであっという間に時間が過ぎました。
ガイドさんが魚などの解説をたくさんしてくださり、石垣島について詳しくなることができました。
とっても楽しかったです。

We traveled by bus with a large group, but when it came time to enter the sea, we split into smaller groups of about four people. They were considerate of those of us who aren't great swimmers, allowing us to explore the Blue Cave while holding onto floaties! It was reassuring to have some time to gradually get used to the water temperature, making it a great experience for small children as well. ✨ The young and wonderful guides provided informative explanations about the surrounding terrain, history, and marine life, which was very educational. ✏️ Although we didn't see any sea turtles, we were able to observe various types of fish, and swimming over the deep trench was an exceptional experience. 🐠🫧

During the latter part of the mangrove forest SUP, the instructors kindly taught us how to paddle at a comfortable pace, allowing us to enjoy it safely. ☺️ It felt amazing to sit while paddling, and when I was able to stand and paddle, it was such a nice feeling! (One of the women from the couple we were with fell into the river but seemed to be having a great time. 😆 Haha.) We thoroughly enjoyed the quintessential Okinawan mangrove forest and learned about the Kijimunaa fairy that resides in the giant banyan trees. I definitely want to participate again!

大人数でバスで移動しましたが、海に入るときには4名前後のグループ行動になります。泳ぎが苦手な私たちにも配慮してくださり、浮き輪に捕まりながら青の洞窟を探検することができました！海の温度に少しずつ慣れる時間があるので安心感があり、小さなお子さんにもおすすめです✨若くて素敵なお兄さん、お姉さんたち（ガイドさんたち）による、周辺の地形や歴史、海の生き物などの説明は勉強になりました✏️ウミガメには会えませんでしたが、数々の種類のお魚を見られましたし、深い溝の上を泳ぐ体験は格別でした🐠🫧

後半のマングローブ林SUPでは、SUP初心者の私たちにゆっくり親切に乗り方を教えてくださり、安全に楽しめました☺️座りながら乗って、立って漕げたときはとても気持ちよかったです！（一緒だったカップルの女性は川に落ちちゃってましたが楽しそうでした😆笑）。THE沖縄感のマングローブ林を堪能して、巨大ガジュマルに宿るキジムナーの妖精についても教えてもらえてよかったです！ぜひまた参加したいです！！

A calm and quiet space. You can choose the aroma scent according to your preference. The massage strength is adjusted to your wishes, and I almost fell asleep several times, but I held back thinking it would be a waste to sleep! My dry, rough skin became smooth.

落ち着いた静かな空間。自分の好みで選べるアロマの香り。マッサージの強さも希望に合わせてくれて、何度も寝落ちしそうになりましたが、寝てしまったら勿体ないと思って耐えました！
乾燥してバリバリだった肌が、スベスベになりました。

It was a fulfilling day efficiently visiting three islands: Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island in just one day. I felt that 90 minutes was a bit short for both the meal and exploring Yufu Island.

1日で西表島、由布島、竹富島の3つの島を効率良く巡れて充実した1日でした。
90分の中で食事と由布島の巡るのは少し時間が足りなかったように感じました。

The tour was unique with smooth transportation. The water buffalo cart is highly recommended, but the speed varies depending on the horse you ride.

スムーズな移動でツアーならではでした。水牛車は本当におすすめですが、乗る馬によりスピードに差があります。

Since I had plans in the afternoon, I was able to enjoy SUP (stand-up paddleboarding) quickly in the morning. The guide's explanations were easy to understand as well.

午後から予定を入れていたので朝からさくっとSUPが楽しめました。ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすかったです。

I had a great time visiting the three islands of Iriomote Island, Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island in just one day. In particular, the island tour by water buffalo cart was a lot of fun. The sea was also very beautiful.

西表島、由布島、竹富島の３島を、一日で回れて、とても良かったです。特に、水牛車での島巡りは、とても、楽しかったです。海も、大変綺麗でした。

It was nice to relax. I think it's perfectly fine for those who lack confidence in their legs since you can avoid walking.

It was a place worthy of being a World Natural Heritage site.

のんびりして良かったです。
歩かずに済みますので足に自信の無い方でも全然大丈夫かと思います。

世界自然遺産に相応しい場所でしたね。

The guide was very kind, and the transportation from the hotel to the experience location was really helpful! I was able to relax and enjoy the experience under the beautiful dawn sky ⭐︎ It was my first time in Ishigaki Island, and I’m really glad I got to experience it ( ◠‿◠ )

ガイドさんがとても親切で、ホテルから体験先までの送迎がありとても助かりました！
夜明けの綺麗な空の下でリラックスしながら体験できました⭐︎
石垣島は初めてだったのですが、体験できて本当に良かったです( ◠‿◠ )

It was a very well-thought-out schedule. I was able to visit three islands, and I gained a good understanding of the geographical relationships in the Yaeyama Islands. The guide's explanations were also educational. The performance of the sanshin on the water buffalo cart was great. The lunch exceeded my expectations, and I got to enjoy various Okinawan dishes. Although it was cloudy with light rain seasonally, I was satisfied. Thank you.

とてもよく考えられたスケジューリングです。3つの島に行け、八重山諸島の地理的な位置関係が良くわかりました。
ガイドさんのお話も勉強になった。
水牛車の三線演奏が良かった。
お昼ご飯も期待以上。沖縄料理をいろいろいただけました。
季節的に曇りと小雨でしたが、満足できました。ありがとう。

The water buffalo was amazing! The lunch at Yufushima was also very delicious. It was great to see mangroves for the first time.

水牛最高でした🐃　由布島でのランチもとても美味しかったです🍽️ 初めて見るマングローブも良かったです。

There are limited bus services, but for someone like me who can't drive, it's very helpful! I will continue to use it!

バスの本数には限りがありますが、車の運転ができないわたしにとってはとてもありがたいです！まだまだ使わせていただきます！

I stayed in the northern part and didn't have a car, so I was really grateful for this! The driver was kind and asked me where I wanted to get off, which was very helpful for someone like me who isn't familiar with Ishigaki Island.

北部寄りに滞在していましたが車がなく、足がなかったので本当に助かっています！
運転手さんもどこで降りるか聞いてくれたり優しくて、石垣島に慣れていない私にはとてもありがたいです。

The water is beautiful and truly healing! Kaori's guidance was excellent and I had a great time. Next time, I will definitely try again on a sunny day.

水もきれいでほんとうに癒される！カオリさんの案内も最高で楽しかったです
次はぜひ晴れた日に再チャレンジします

The three-island tour was very good. I was impressed by the water buffalo cart I rode for the first time. At Yufu Island, I spent too much time taking photos and eating, so I was disappointed that I couldn't explore the island much. I chose the free walk plan for Taketomi Island, but the limited number of buses made the schedule tight.

3島巡りとても良かったです。
初めて乗った水牛車は感動しました。
由布島では、写真と食事に時間をとりすぎて島内の散策があまり出来なくて残念でした。
竹富島はフリーウォークプランを選択しましたが、バスの本数が少なめだった為タイトなスケジュールになってしまいました。

Exploring Mishima while riding on a ferry, bus, sightseeing boat, and ox cart was a delightful experience. The lunch was delicious, and I was able to enjoy the wonderful spots in Mishima✨ The drivers (and the person guiding the oxen?) were entertaining, making the time enjoyable! Thank you, Yumemi-chan, Kojiro-kun, Kaiji-kun, and Rui-kun. I also learned that the water buffalo have distinct personalities and are all quite different!

フェリー・バス・観光船・牛車に乗りながら三島巡り。お昼ごはんもおいしく三島のいいとこ巡りができました✨運転手の皆さんも（牛を誘導する人？）話が面白く楽しく過ごせました！ゆめみちゃん　こじろうくん　カイジくん　ルイくん　ありがとう。　水牛も個性豊かでいろいろ違うことがわかりました!

It's really disappointing that the sightseeing on Taketomi Island was abbreviated. We should have opted for a free sightseeing choice. Was it because someone couldn't keep the meeting time that the boat schedule got delayed? It seems that we couldn't change the return boat because there was no tour guide present. The bus tour on Taketomi Island was disappointing. It was good up to Iriomote Island and Yufu Island, so it's a shame. I should have negotiated with the local staff about changing the return boat.

竹富島の観光省略されとても残念
フリーの観光選択すべきでしたね
集合時間守れない人のせい？で船の時間がずれた？らしいです
スルーの添乗員がいないために帰りの船の変更不可？竹富島バス観光残念でした。
西表島由布島までは良かったので残念でした。現地スタッフのかたに帰路船の変更掛け合うべきである

Despite the unfortunate weather forecast, it only drizzled occasionally. This timing allowed us to enjoy our time even more comfortably, and the activities were enjoyable whether it was sunny or rainy.

◯ Iriomote Island
We explored the mangroves on a covered boat. The weather didn't affect this experience. Navigating through the mangrove forest is something that is quite difficult to do on your own.

◯ Yubu Island
Riding a water buffalo to cross from one island to another was a unique experience. The water buffalo cart is also not affected by the weather. On Yubu Island, we had time for a meal and free time in the botanical garden. Even those who aren't interested in the botanical garden can enjoy it as a meal and relaxation time. At the back of the botanical garden, there is actually a beach. Enjoying the scenery here is also an option.

◯ Taketomi Island
If you don't have a specific store or destination in mind, you might find yourself at a loss on how to spend your time in the village. It's certainly possible to arrange rental bicycles or water buffalo carts on your own. However, considering the round-trip travel from each island and moving around the island, it's wise to think about combining a water buffalo or bicycle rental. The only activity here that is affected by the weather is the village tour by water buffalo cart. It's recommended as it allows for a cool experience without getting wet.

あいにくの悪天候予報でしたが、降っても時折 小雨が降る程度。
そんなタイミングだったので余計に快適に過ごすことができましたが、晴天でも雨天でも楽しめるアクティビティでした。

◯西表島
屋根付きのボートでマングローブ散策。
天気に左右されません。
マングローブ林の中を進むのはなかなか個人ではできない体験です。

◯由布島
水牛に乗って島から島へ渡るのは貴重な体験でした。
こちらの水牛車も天気に左右されません。
由布島では植物園内で食事＆自由時間が。
植物園に興味のない方も、食事兼休憩時間として過ごせます。
植物園の奥には実はビーチが。ここで景色を楽しむのもアリです。

◯竹富島
集落での過ごし方は、目的のお店等が無い方は意外と持て余すかも。
個人手配でレンタサイクルや水牛車の手配ももちろん可能。
ただ、各島からの往復移動や島内の移動を考えると、セットで水牛or自転車を考えておくと吉です。
唯一ここでの過ごし方だけ天気に左右されます。
水牛車での集落回遊は避暑＆濡れないのでおすすめ。

I visited in early May and was worried about the rainy season, but it only rained while I was on the ferry and bus. By the time I arrived at Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, the weather was clear, and I had the best sightseeing experience. Cycling on Taketomi Island was refreshing, and the botanical garden on Yufu Island was more enjoyable than I expected, so I highly recommend it!

5月前半に行き梅雨が心配だったのですが、フェリーやバスに乗っている間だけ雨が降ったのみで、西表島や由布島、竹富島に着く頃には晴れ、最高の観光ができました。竹富島でのサイクリングは気持ちがよかったのと、由布島の植物園が想像より楽しかったのでおすすめしたいです！

I purchased tickets in advance at a discount using points at Okinawa Airport. After arriving at Ishigaki Airport, I went to the bus stop for the Higashi Bus. There was already a route bus waiting for departure, and I boarded it. I showed the driver my smartphone screen, and he issued my ticket without any issues right away. There were also announcements posted inside the bus. Coincidentally, the same young driver was on both the outbound and return trips. I would like to purchase tickets here again next time since I can earn points.

沖縄空港でポイントと割引を使ってお得にチケットを事前購入。
石垣空港に到着後、東バスのバス停へ
そこには既に出発前の路線バスが止まっており乗車して
運転手にスマホの画面を見せチケットを発行して頂きました。
何も問題なくすぐに対応して頂きました。
車内にも案内が貼ってましたね。
偶然にも行と帰りは同じ若い運転手でした。
次回もポイントが付くのでこちらで購入したいと思います。

I thought a plan that allows visiting three islands in one day would be great, so I joined. There was plenty of free time, and I liked that I could participate in my own way.

1日で3島回れるプランがよいと思い参加しました。自由時間も多く、思い思いに参加できるのがよかったです。

I recommend it because there are many islands around Ishigaki Island, and you can efficiently explore them even with limited time. The itinerary and efficiency are things you can't achieve when planning on your own, and it's also cost-effective! The guides at each sightseeing spot were enjoyable and great as well.

石垣島の離島がたくさんあって時間が限られる中で効率よく周れるので、おすすめです。
自分たちでスケジュール組むと出来ない行程と効率性、またお得さでした！
それぞれの観光スポットでのガイドも楽しくて良かったです。
