Ishigaki/Yaeyama
It was both of our first time on a SUP, but we were able to get on easily. The instructors were all very kind, and it was a lot of fun. The temperature was surprisingly warm for the end of February, so it felt great to jump into the sea. Both the ocean and the scenery were very beautiful, and it became a wonderful memory. We were able to participate without carrying any luggage, as they took many photos for us. Regarding transportation, they picked us up close by and also dropped us off on the way back. Thank you very much!
supは2人とも初めてでしたが、簡単に乗ることができました。インストラクターさんもみなさん親切でとても楽しかったです。2月末とは思えないほど気温は暖かかったので、海に飛び込んでも気持ちが良かったです。海も景色もとても綺麗で、すごくいい思い出になりました。写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、荷物は持たずに参加することができました。送迎についても、近くまで迎えにきていただき、帰りも送ってくださりました。
ありがとうございました!
The only disappointment was the bad weather, but I had a very satisfying time no matter where I went or which guide I had. The bus driver's stories were very interesting.
The water buffalo was very cute.
I had booked a glass-bottom boat, but it was canceled before departure due to high waves, and that was the only regret.
天気が悪いということだけが残念でしたが、どの場所に行っても、どのガイドさんでも大変満足した時間を過ごすことができました。
バスの運転手さんのお話がとても面白い。
水牛さんがとても可愛かったです。
グラスボートを申し込んでいましたが、波が高いということで出発前にキャンセルになり、それだけが残念でした。
Due to the weather, we changed from the originally planned SUP at Kawahira Bay to mangrove SUP, but I was able to participate and have fun. During the drive to and from the location, we had enjoyable conversations about the scenery along the way and the history of the island, which were very interesting. It was my first time doing SUP, but they taught me carefully, and I was able to maneuver it right away. Paddling while standing felt great, and the discussions about the mangroves and the flora and fauna of the stone walls on both sides of the river were enjoyable. Although it went by quickly, I had a wonderful time. Thank you for the lovely experience. I highly recommend it to anyone considering it!
天候の影響で当初の川平湾からマングローブでのSUPに変更になりましたが楽しく参加できました。
行き帰りの車の中でも道中の景色の話や島の歴史なども楽しくお話ししていただき、とても興味深かったです。
SUPも初めてでしたが丁寧に教えていただき、すぐに操ることが出来ました。立って漕ぐととても気持ち良くて、川の両岸のマングローブや石垣の動植物の話も楽しく、あっという間でしたが素晴らしい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。素敵な体験を心ありがとうございます。検討中の方もぜひぜひお勧めです!
I was looking forward to this tour, staying at a hotel right by the port, and it exceeded my expectations. The initial mangrove cruise was fantastic! The next experience with the water buffalo cart was exotic, but I couldn't fully enjoy it because I felt sorry for the buffalo.
Taketomi Island had a charm that made me wonder if Okinawa's main island used to look like this. However, on the way back to the port, I got lost and it was quite nerve-wracking. It was frustrating that the place names on the signposts at the fork in the road were not on the map provided. Fortunately, I was able to navigate using my smartphone's location, but I hope for improvements to the map.
このツアーに参加するためホテルも港横にして楽しみにしていたが、期待以上だった。最初のマングローブクルーズは最高! 次の水牛車もエキゾチックな体験でしたが、水牛さんがかわいそうで心からは楽しめませんでした。
竹富島は昔は沖縄本島もこんな感じだったのかなという風情がありよかったのですが、帰りに港に向かう道で迷ってハラハラしました。分かれ道の案内標識に出てる地名が渡されていたマップになかったのは困りました。幸いスマホの位置情報で事なきをえましたが、マップの改善を望みます。
I participated with my sisters and their children, a total of 9 people. Our ages ranged from 4 to 50, and we were all beginners, but everyone was able to enjoy themselves. The guide was attentive to both the little ones and me, an older participant, encouraging everyone with cheerful words, which allowed us to participate with peace of mind and smiles throughout. Although it was February, the weather was nice that day, and we were able to comfortably enter the sea. The water was so beautiful that it made me want to shout, and I still feel enchanted when I remember it. The snorkeling was tailored for beginners, and we were able to see beautiful corals and fish. I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much.
姉妹とその子どもたち、9名で参加しました。4歳から50歳までと年齢はバラバラ、しかも初心者ばかりでしたが、皆んなが楽しむことができました。ガイドの方は、小さな子どものことも、年配の私のことも気にかけて、皆んなに元気に声をかけて下さり、安心して、ずっと笑顔で参加することができました。2月でしたが、その日は天気も良く気持ちよく海に入ることができました。海は叫んでしまうほど綺麗で、今も思い出してうっとりしてしまうほどです。シュノーケリングは、初心者に合わせて進めて下さり、綺麗なサンゴや魚を見ることができました。また、是非参加させていただきます。ありがとうございました。
During the boat and bus rides, as well as in the water buffalo cart crossing to Yufushima, I enjoyed the staff's flexible explanations without getting bored. The amazing scenery that you can't see on the mainland was the best. Even though I was traveling alone, I had a great time without feeling bored at all.
移動中のボートやバスの中、由布島に渡る水牛車の中と退屈する事なくスタッフの臨機応変な説明が良く楽しめました。本土では見ることのない素晴らしい景色が見れて最高でした。一人旅でしたが全然退屈する事なく楽しかったです。
This was my first time participating. It started with the polite service from Ishigaki Island Dream Tourism, and after arriving at Iriomote Island, we smoothly enjoyed a mangrove cruise with breathtaking scenery that was truly moving. The person explaining things on the boat was also fun and enjoyable. Next, we rode a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, and the stories from the water buffalo cart driver, along with the shamisen and songs, were all fantastic! I was amazed at how smart and cute the water buffalo were! On Yubu Island, there were water buffalo that you could touch, and I was allowed to pet their horns and bodies. The weather was great, so the scenery was wonderful, and I was healed by the plants and butterflies, allowing me to spend a lovely time. I wish I had a bit more time on Yubu Island. The entire tour was really enjoyable, and the conversations were fun and friendly. I'm so glad I participated in this tour! I made great memories! If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to use this service.
初めて参加させて頂きました。まずは石垣島ドリーム観光の方の丁寧な接客からはじまり西表島に到着後もスムーズにマングローブ遊覧、素晴らしい景色が広がり感動。遊覧船で説明してくれる方も楽しくてよかったです。続いて水牛車に乗って由布島へ水牛車の方のお話、三味線、歌、全て最高でした!水牛がすごく賢くてかわいいのに驚きでした!由布島では触れる水牛がいてツノや体を触らせてもらえたり、お天気がよかったので景色も最高で植物、蝶にも癒され素敵な時間を過ごせました。もう少し由布島で時間があったらよかったなー。ツアー全体は本当に楽しくて、お話も楽しく親しみやすくこのツアーに参加して本当によかった!いい思い出がでしました!また機会があったら是非、利用したいです。
This is a great tour that allows you to meaningfully explore Iriomote Island and Yufu Island in half a day. On Iriomote Island, you can see the mangrove forests up close on a sightseeing boat. And above all, riding the water buffalo cart on Yufu Island makes you feel like time stands still. It's packed with amazing experiences in a short time!
半日で西表島、由布島を有意義に廻れる良いツアーです。
西表島では、遊覧船でマングローブ林を身近で見ることが出来ます。そして何より、水牛車に乗っての由布島は時の流れを止めてくれます。
短時間に大感動が詰まっています!!
It was great to be able to enjoy stars that are not often seen while taking a moonlight bath! The explanations were easy to understand as well. I would like to request this again when I come to Ishigaki Island.
普段なかなか見ることのない星を月光浴しながら鑑賞でき良かった!説明もわかりやすかったです。
また、石垣島に来た際は、お願いしたいです。
I participated with a friend. The weather was nice, and the experience of riding the water buffalo cart while enjoying the beautiful scenery was amazing! It felt like time was flowing slowly, and I felt very fulfilled. The water buffalo named Neelan was very cute. Seeing the buffalo working in shifts made me feel motivated to do my best at work as well. I would love to use this service again when I visit Taketomi Island!
友人と2人で参加しました。
気候も良く、綺麗な景色を見ながらの水牛車体験は最高でした!
時間もゆっくり流れているような気がして、とても充実していました。
水牛のニーランくんがとても可愛かったです。
牛さんもシフト制で頑張っているので、仕事頑張ろうって思えました。笑
また竹富島に行く際は利用したいなと思いました♀️
It was a satisfying plan that allowed us to efficiently visit three islands in one day, including lunch. We rented bicycles on Taketomi Island, which provided exercise and made for a fulfilling day.
一日で効率よく3島めぐれて
ランチ付で 十分満足なプランでした。
竹富島でレンタサイクルを借りて
運動にもなり盛りだくさんな1日でした。
Thank you for your assistance.
In the morning, we departed from the remote island terminal, enjoyed a mangrove tour, and traveled by bus, making for a timely and fulfilling trip.
When crossing to Yufu Island by water buffalo, there was an announcement and they sang island songs, but I’m sorry, I thought they could use more practice.
The lady on the mangrove cruise was skilled.
Thank you very much.
お世話になりました。
朝、離島ターミナルからの出発、マングローブ観光、バス移動と、タイムリーな充実した旅になりました。
水牛で由布島に渡る時、アナウンスや、島唄を歌ってくれるのですが、すみません。もっと練習した方が良いと思いました。
マングローブクルーズのお姉さんは、上手でした。
ありがとうございました。
I was able to participate again this year, just like last year. Last year's water buffalo carts had Musashi and Kojiro, but this year it was Sota and Mirai, and since I follow them on Instagram, it was fun to see their individual personalities. The round-trip bus had a driver who provided commentary; last year it was entertaining, but this year it felt more negative, and I wanted to hear more about Iriomote Island. The bento from Yufu Island was delicious, and overall, I was very satisfied.
昨年に続き今年も参加できました。
昨年の水牛車は武蔵くんと小次郎くんでしたが、今年は颯太くんと未来くんでインスタもフォローしているので、それぞれ個性があって楽しかったです。
往復のバス、運転手さんが案内をしてくれるのですが昨年は面白かったけど今年はネガティブな感じでもっと西表島のことを聞きたかったです。
由布島のお弁当も美味しいし全体的にとても満足です。
The snorkeling was amazing! The staff, the weather, and everyone who participated were all great. I would like to join again. Thank you! ^ ^
シュノーケル最高でした!
スタッフさん、天気、一緒に参加した方々、全て良かったです。
また、参加したいと思っています。
ありがとうございました^ ^
The weather was favorable, and the meticulous planning for the bus transfer on Iriomote Island was wonderful. On Taketomi Island, I walked over 10,000 steps. You definitely need comfortable shoes.
Google Maps didn't work.
天候にも恵まれ、西表島でのバス中継が必要で、綿密な計画が素晴らしかった。竹富島は、なんと1万歩以上歩きました。必ず、運動靴が必要です。
gogle mapが機能しませんでした。汗
We took a hotel shuttle to Euglena Port and then a high-speed ferry to Iriomote Island in 45 minutes. The mangrove cruise was blessed with good weather, allowing us to enjoy the magnificent natural scenery while listening to explanations about the mangroves and interesting stories as we observed them up close. We even had a welcoming sighting of a crested serpent eagle! After traveling by bus, we went to Yubu Island, where the water buffalo cart ride was a timeless experience, and the flowers on Yubu Island were very beautiful. We then took a bus to Taketomi Island, where we rented bicycles to explore the town and see the traditional Ryukyu architectural style. At the Nishi Sanchō, during low tide, we were able to see many tropical fish, giant clams, and sea cucumbers. It was a fulfilling and great value tour.
ホテル送迎でユーグレナ港へ、高速双頭船で45分で西表島へ。マングローブクルーズは、天気にも恵まれ、雄大な大自然の風景を鑑賞しながら、マングローブの説明を聞き、面白いお話を聞きながらマングローブをまじかに観察いたしました。なんと、カンムリワシの歓迎も!バスで移動して、由布島へ水牛車は時間を忘れるひと時、由布島は花がとても綺麗でした。バスで移動して高速船で竹富島へ、レンタサイクルで街中を徘徊し古き琉球の建築様式等を見れ、西桟橋では、干潮の時間で熱帯魚やシャコガイ、ナマコと沢山見れました。
充実のお値打ちツアーです。
That evening, clouds began to gather suspiciously. When I arrived at the venue, the organizer mentioned that cancellations were possible, but when I expressed my desire to participate, they kindly proceeded with the event. As a result, the clouds cleared, providing perfect conditions for stargazing and constellation explanations. I was moved to see almost all the first-magnitude stars visible in the winter sky of Ishigaki Island, including Subaru, the Beehive Cluster, the Orion Nebula, the Winter Triangle, and the five-pointed diamond of first-magnitude stars. Remarkably, I also saw three shooting stars. The explanations were very enjoyable, and the staff were incredibly kind. I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much.
当日、夕方から雲が怪しい位に湧き出してきました。会場に行って、主催者よりキャンセルも可能との事でしたが、参加を希望を申し出ると快く実施して頂きました。すると、雲が晴れて絶好の星空観賞と星座の説明、冬の石垣島の星空で観れる1等星の殆どが見れて感動し、スバル・かに座の星団・オリオン座の星雲と冬の大三角形・ダイヤモンドの5角形1等星がしっかり見れなんと、流れ星を3っも見れました。
解説も大変楽しく、スタッフさんも親切にしていただきました。是非、また参加させて頂きたいです。有難うございました。
It's early in the morning, but the highlights of the famous island were well organized. However, the sightseeing time on Takefumi Island was short due to the ferry schedule.
朝早いですが、有名な島の見所がまとまっていました
ただ、竹冨島の観光時間がフェリーの都合で短かったです
The hotel shuttle service was very kind and helpful. The bus tour of Taketomi Island was a bit rushed, but I think it's a great tour that covers the highlights for first-time visitors.
ホテルの送迎も含めてとても親切にしてもらえました。
竹富島のバス観光は少し慌ただしかったですが、初めて訪れる人にはいいとこ取りのいいツアーだと思います。
We participated in a tour with our three-generation family, including members in their 70s, 40s, and 20s.
We really enjoyed the mangrove cruise and the water buffalo cart ride, as there were plenty of explanations provided, making it a great experience for us first-time visitors.
The itinerary was packed with activities we wanted to experience, and we were satisfied with the price.
We visited in February when the temperature was around 20°C and it was cloudy, so the mangrove cruise felt chilly without a jacket due to the wind.
Having lunch included and being able to return to Ishigaki Island by 2:30 PM was convenient and appreciated.
70代、40代、20代の3世代家族旅行でツアーに参加しました。
マングローブクルーズでも水牛車でもたくさん解説が聞けるので、初めて訪れるわたしたちはとても楽しめました。
体験したい内容がぎゅっとつまっていて、お値段的にも満足です。
訪れたのが2月で気温20℃くもりのお天気で、マングローブクルーズは風を受けるので上着がないと寒く感じました。
昼食付きなのも、14時半に石垣島に戻ってこれるのも楽でよかったです。
The water buffalo tour was great, and I really enjoyed the slow pace of Taketomi. The guide's performance on the sanshin was also excellent and fun, so next time I want to rent a bicycle and explore the island's surroundings and see the star sand on the beach. The townscape is also very soothing.
水牛ツアーは、とても、竹富のゆっくり時間を堪能出来て良かったです
ガイドさんの三線も、上手で楽しかったので、今度は、自転車を借りて島の周囲とか浜の星の砂を見に行きたいと思います。
街並みも、癒されます。
It was disappointing that the stars were not very visible due to the clouds. However, it was a valuable experience to see Jupiter through the telescope. Thank you very much.
雲が多かったので、星がよく見えず残念でした。ただ、望遠鏡で木星が見れたのは貴重な体験ができ良かった。ありがとうございました。
In Okinawa, I was able to feel the charm of Ishigaki and the surrounding islands, and I was amazed by the power and strength of the water buffalo. I felt it was a tour I would like to experience again.
沖縄、石垣、離島の風情を感じることができ、水牛の迫力と力強さには驚きました。また、体験したいツアーだと感じました。
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 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 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
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
