Ishigaki/Yaeyama
I understood, but it was a bit disappointing that each stop in Mishima was quite short. I could hardly see anything on Yufu Island.
On Taketomi Island, I went cycling, and the weather was great, which made it perfect. It's ideal for quickly getting a feel for the island's atmosphere, and I think it's convenient without worrying about transportation. However, next time, I would like to explore each island a bit more thoroughly.
わかってはいましたが、三島巡るため、やはりひとつひとつが短時間なのが、少し残念でした。特に由布島は、ほとんど見ることができなかったです。
竹富島では、サイクリングをしましたが、お天気もよく最高でした。
ささっと島の雰囲気を知るには最適ですし、交通の心配もなく便利と思いますが、次回は各島をもう少しじっくり見たいです。
We participated on a weekday before Golden Week, just the two of us, mother and daughter. We were able to see coral reefs and fish, and we even encountered a sea turtle, which made my mother very happy and created wonderful memories.
ゴールデンウィーク前の平日に、母娘で参加しました。サンゴ礁や魚を見つけることができましたし、ウミガメにも遭遇し、母も喜んでいていい思い出になりました。
Due to the long holiday, there were many participants, but everything went smoothly, including the staff's transfer guidance, allowing us to enjoy our time without any waiting.
On Taketomi Island, I chose to go cycling. Under the blue sky, I rode along the white path with butterflies fluttering around.
Although it was the end of April, the UV rays were strong, so a hat and sunscreen are essential.
大型連休中であったため多数の参加者がおられましたが、スタッフの方の乗り換え案内など全てがスムーズで、待ち時間なく楽しく過ごせました。
竹富島ではサイクリングを選択しました。青い空の下、蝶々がヒラヒラ舞う中、白い道を走りました。
4月末でしたが、紫外線が強く、帽子と日焼け止めは必須です。
Since I was with small children (2 years and 7 months old), I thought cycling would be difficult, so we opted for a bus tour. We got off at Kaiji Beach and picked up star sand, and although we only saw Kondoi Beach from the bus window, it was such a beautiful beach that I thought I would like to play in the water next time. Also, on the water buffalo cart, we spent a leisurely time with the guide and the melody of the sanshin!
小さな子供連れ(2歳と7カ月)だったので、サイクリングは無理だと思いバス観光にしました。
カイジ浜では下車して星砂拾ったり、コンドイビーチは車窓からでしたが、今度来る時は水遊びしてみたいなと思うくらい綺麗なビーチでした。
また水牛車ではガイドと三線のメロディと共に時間もゆっくり流れのんびり過ごせました!
There were many people in the group, and I felt a bit awkward being alone, but I still enjoyed it. I generally prefer to sightsee at a leisurely pace, so I have the impression that tours are busy except during the daytime. I also had to be considerate of the other group while eating, so next time I come, I plan to buy my own ticket and travel at my own pace. I think it would be fun for a family trip.
皆さんグループの方が多く、1人だと気まずい気分になりましたが楽しめました。
基本的に私はのんびり観光したいのでやはりツアーは昼間を除いて忙しいイメージが有ります。
食事も他のグループに気を使いながら食べたので今度来るときは自分で乗船券を買って気ままに旅行しようと思いました。
家族旅行なら楽しいと思います。
The weather was quite favorable, and the stars were clearly visible, making it an enjoyable experience with very easy-to-understand explanations. However, the temperature difference from the hotel area was greater than expected, so I needed a sweatshirt and such.
I also wanted to capture the starry sky, so I brought a camera and a small tripod for this purpose, but there was a notice at the venue saying, "Please refrain from using cameras or phones as the screens are too bright," and I couldn't take any photos at all. I wish they had informed us about this from the beginning. Alternatively, since the venue seemed spacious, I thought it would have been nice if they allowed us to take photos from a slightly distant spot without bothering others.
かなり天候にも恵まれ星がよく見えましたし、説明も非常にわかりやすくて楽しめました。ただ、ホテル近辺との気温差が予想以上で、トレーナー等が必要でした。
また、星空を写真におさめたくて、この為にカメラや小さな三脚を持参したのですが、「カメラや携帯は液晶が明るいので使用はご遠慮下さい」と会場で注意があり、全く撮れませんでした。ダメなら最初から教えてほしかったです。もしくは会場は広そうに見えたので、他の方の迷惑にならない少し離れた場所で撮らせてくれたらいいのにと思いました。
I thought visiting three islands in one day would be tough, but there was plenty of free time, and I was able to take a lot of photos. The weather on Iriomote Island changed suddenly, and it rained a bit, but that's common here, so I was prepared for it. The guide for the Iriomote tour was very polite and, above all, greeted us with a smile. On Yubu Island, they provided separate guides for the ox cart ride to and from, and on the way back, they entertained us with the sanshin. On Taketomi Island, we explored the island by renting bicycles. There were a few more hills than I expected, which was a bit tiring.
I couldn't find any star sand at Kaiji Beach at all. If you really want to find it, it might take more than a day. The view from Kondoi Beach is absolutely the best.
1日で3島めぐりはキツイかなと思いましたが、自由時間も余裕があり写真もかなり撮ることができました。西表は天気が急転して少し雨になりましたがここではよくあることで想定済みでした。西表ツアーのガイドさんも丁寧で何よりも笑顔で接してくました。由布島の牛車は、行きと帰りのガイドさんを別にしてくれて帰りは三線で楽しませてくれました。竹富島ではレンタサイクルで島を巡りました。想定したよりもちょっとした坂が多く地味に疲れました。
カイジ浜の星の砂は、全く見つかりせんでした。本気で見つけようとしたら1日じゃすまないかもです。コンドイビーチの景色は何よりも最高です。
Thank you for taking care of me during my trip! Although I mentioned that I didn't need a wetsuit, it was cloudy during the snorkeling, and it was very cold on the return boat. I should have asked to bring the wetsuit on board even if I didn't wear it. Thank you very much.
GWお世話になりました!自分からウェット不要と申しでたものの、シュノーケル時点で曇り空、帰りの船上も非常に寒かったので、ウェット着用しなくとも船に持ち込ませて頂く様にすればよかったです。
ありがとうございました。
This was my second experience with a Segway, and it was very enjoyable this time. I liked that we could explore various places like a tour. The instructor was Dutch and very kind and attentive.
セグウェイは2回目の体験でしたが今回はとても楽しかった。ツアー感覚でいろいろと回れたのが良かった。オランダ人のインストラクターだつたがとても親切で丁寧でした。
Dear Chichi,
Thank you for participating in the Segway tour and for your kind words! I will also report this to the instructor in charge!
We all look forward to your next visit!
チッチ様
この度は、セグウェイツアーへご参加、
お褒めのお言葉を頂きありがとうございます!
担当インストラクターへもご報告させて頂きます!
またのご利用をスタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております!
Although the weather was unfortunately rainy and cloudy, I was glad to have included this tour, as there wouldn't have been much else to do. The mangrove tour involved riding a boat up the Nakama River while listening to our guide's stories, and we returned afterward. The water buffalo cart to Yufu Island was a slow but soothing experience with the hardworking buffalo. There was plenty to do on Yufu Island, including visiting the butterfly garden, so I never felt bored. It was a bit disappointing that the lunchbox was cold; perhaps it was due to the large number of people, but I would have preferred freshly made food. When we arrived at Taketomi Island, it was raining quite a bit, but we bravely cycled in our raincoats. I enjoyed spotting cute birds and eating soba. Everyone on Taketomi Island was very kind.
雨が降ったり止んだりとあいにくの天気でしたが、このツアーを入れてなかったら他にできることもなかったので良かったです。
マングローブツアーはガイドさんの話を聞きながら船で仲間川をのぼり、戻ってきました。
由布島への水牛車はゆーっくりと頑張ってる牛に癒されました。由布島内もちょう園など、退屈することはありませんでした。お弁当は冷めてしまっていて少し残念でした。人数が多いから仕方ないのかもしれませんが作りたてのご飯が食べたかったです。
竹富島に着いた時は雨も結構降っていたのですがレインコートでサイクリングを強行。可愛い鳥を発見したり、そばを食べたりと楽しめました。竹富島の人はみなさん優しかったです。
I was a bit disappointed because I felt there were fewer stars than I expected, perhaps due to the photos I saw or the sky that day. However, considering that you can't see that many stars in the city, it was still pretty good.
写真を見て期待し過ぎたせいか、その日の空のせいか思っていたより星が少なく感じてガッカリ感があった。でも、都会ではあれだけの星は見れないのでまあまあかなって感じです。
The moon was bright, and I couldn't see many stars, but I was able to see Jupiter and didn't feel disappointed. Next time, I will check the lunar phase and participate on a day with less moonlight.
月が明るく星はあまり見えませんでしたが
木星なども見れてガッカリ感はありませんでした。
次は月齢を確認して月明かりがあまり無い日に参加します。
I brought my grandmother along, and she enjoyed it. The water buffalo was interesting, but the jungle cruise in the morning was a bit cold, so a jacket is necessary.
ばーちゃんを参加させましたが楽しんでいました。水牛は、牛が面白かったですが、午前中のジャングルクルーズは少し寒かったため上着が必要です。
I was expecting to see very clear and beautiful coral reefs and fish, so... I guess this is about what I expected. Kabira Bay was very beautiful, so just looking at it was fine. But the kids were happy.
とてもクリアで綺麗なさんご礁や魚を見れることを期待していたので、、、まあこんなもんかなという感じです。川平湾はとても綺麗でしたので、普通にみるだけでいいかな。でも子どもは喜んでました。
Ox cart rides, glass boarding, and rental bicycles are standard activities on Taketomi Island. We only booked the ox cart and glass boarding, and arranged the rental bicycles on-site. Booking the ox cart and glass boarding together is definitely more economical than booking them separately. For rental bicycles, it's smooth to book through the tour company that arranges the ox cart.
Taketomi Island is a must-visit spot for sightseeing in Ishigaki, so I highly recommend it! After the ox cart ride, you can also take commemorative photos with the water buffalo from the front.
牛車、グラスボード、レンタサイクルなどは武富島の定番アクティビティです。
我々は牛車、グラスボードのみを申し込み、レンタサイクルは現地で手配しました。
牛車&グラスボードとフェリーに関しては別々に申し込むよりも、こちらのほうが断然お得です。
レンタサイクルは牛車を手配してくれるツアー会社のところで申し込むとスムーズにいきます。
武富島は石垣観光には外せないスポットなので、オススメです!
牛車に乗った後、正面から水牛との記念撮影も可能です。
The laser beams made it easy to understand the locations of stars and constellations, and both children and adults enjoyed it.
I was a bit disappointed because the weather in Ishigaki Island can change rapidly; even though the forecast said it would be clear, clouds appeared and it rained, so I couldn't see a perfect starry sky. However, I was glad to see many more stars compared to Tokyo.
I would love to come back to Ishigaki Island and see the Southern Cross next time!
レーザー光線で星の場所と星座を分かりやすく解説してくれて子供も大人も楽しめました。
石垣島は天気の移り変わりが激しいので、私の時は天気予報で晴れでも雲が発生したり雨が降ったりして満点の星空とまではいかずに残念でしたが、東京に比べて沢山星が観ることができて良かったです。
また石垣島に来て今度は南十字星を観てみたいです!
It would have been nice if there were no clouds.
The host was a bit awkward.
I appreciated that blankets and tea were provided at this time of year!
The radar for checking the stars was amazing!
I want to come back to see the stars again in a warmer season!
Thank you very much!
雲が無かったらよかった。
司会の方がぎこちなかった。
今の時期でブランケットとお茶が出てきたのがよかったです!
星を確認するレーダーがすごかったです!
また暖かい時期に星をみにきたいです!
ありがとうごさいました!
I was drawn to the name of the Star Bathing Tour, and the fact that same-day participation was allowed, along with transportation from the remote island terminal, made me choose this tour. We took a bus for about 20-30 minutes to the stargazing farm that was developed specifically for this tour. Upon arrival, there was a cute reception area, and beyond that, there were reclining chairs prepared for each participant, allowing us to sit back and enjoy the stargazing in a relaxed manner.
Although it was a clear day, I felt that the brightness of the moon might have overshadowed the stars. I had expected to see a starry sky like the one shown in the tour photos, but I honestly found the actual view disappointing as I couldn't see such a sky with the naked eye.
That said, each person was provided with binoculars, which allowed us to see stars that were not visible to the naked eye. We could also observe the stars while receiving explanations using a laser pointer, which made it more enjoyable and helped us understand the grandeur of the universe rather than just gazing aimlessly.
I participated at the end of March, and while it was still a bit chilly at night, there was a service of warm Sanpin tea and blankets. However, after being outside for about an hour, it got quite cold, and towards the end, it became a bit tough, so I think it's necessary to prepare for the cold depending on the season.
The high ratings from other participants were a factor in my decision to join, but perhaps that raised my expectations too much. I was hoping for a starry sky that matched the name of the tour. By the way, I stayed on the northern side of Ishigaki Island and saw a sky full of stars there, which made me want to join the tour again, but the visibility of the stars was completely different. I think it might be the difference between the empty northern side and the city-close southern side.
It seemed that there were many participants that day, and it took a long time for everyone to take turns looking at the moon's craters through the telescope, which significantly exceeded the scheduled end time, leading to various disappointments.
I hesitated to post this review as it might come off as harsh, but I hope that sharing this perspective can be helpful among the many high ratings.
星浴ツアーのネーミングに惹かれ、当日参加OK、離島ターミナルからの送迎ありも決め手となり、こちらのツアーへ。
このツアーのために開拓されたという星空ファームへバスで20-30分かけて向います。現地につくと可愛い受付と、その先には人数分のリクライニングチェアが準備されてあり、順次案内されゆったり座りながらの星空観察。
ただこの日は晴天でしたが、月がかなり明るかったからか?星の光が負けていたように思います。このツアーに載せてある写真のような星空が観れると思っていましたが、肉眼ではそのような星空は確認できず正直期待外れな星空でした。
とはいえ、双眼鏡が一人一台用意されていて、それを使うと肉眼では見えない星を見ることは出来ましたし、レザーポインターを使って星の説明を受けながら観察できるので、ただぼんやりと眺めるよりは宇宙の壮大さを理解でき楽しかったです。
今回3月末の参加でしたが夜はまだ肌寒く、温かいサンピン茶とブランケットのサービスがありましたが、約一時間ずっと外にいると結構冷えて最後のほうはちょっと辛かったので季節によっては自身での防寒対策必要だと思います。
参加された方の評価が高かったことも参加するきっかけになりましたが、逆に期待が大きくなってしまったのか、星浴ツアーのネーミングに期待を持ちすぎたのか・・・ちなみに今回、石垣島の北側にも宿泊し、そこで観た星空が満天の浴びるような星空で、それをもう一度みたいと思いツアーに参加したのですが星空の見え方が全然違いました。やっぱり何もない北側と市街地に近い南側の違いなのかもしれないなと思いました。
この日は人数も多かったようで、望遠鏡で月のクレーターをひとりひとり見る順番にも時間がかかり、終了予定時間を大幅に超えていたり、いろいろ残念でした。
辛口の口コミになるので投稿を迷いましたが、高評価が多い中で、このような感想があることを参考にしてもらえたらと思います。
The stargazing tour here requires a charter bus arrangement for those who do not use rental cars! We were picked up by a microbus in front of the mailbox at the Ishigaki Island ferry terminal bus stop.
After 8 PM, there are hardly any buses coming or going, so it's easy to find, but I was a bit anxious at the time of booking since I didn't know where exactly the Ishigaki Island ferry terminal bus stop was.
Notably, the way to focus the binoculars was excellent. In another tour I participated in the day before, they only used the central dial to focus on the moon, but here we focused one eye at a time (starting from the left), which was very easy to understand and provided a clear view.
The explanation of the stars was also easy to follow, and the laser pointer was used for a long time (other tours were too brief), allowing us to see with our eyes and confirm with the binoculars.
Additionally, we were shown not only stars through the telescope but also the craters of the moon. I was taught why my constellation, Leo, shines close to the horizon in July and August. Overall, the explanations were very clear and easy to understand, making it a wonderful experience.
It was intellectually enriching, and I am very grateful. This was a valuable stargazing tour that taught me things I had never known before.
ここの星空ツアーはレンタカーを使わない人はチャーターバスの手配が必要です!マイクロバスでの送迎です。
私達は離島ターミナルバス停の郵便ポスト前でした。
夜の8時以降は殆どバスの出入りが無いので分かりやすいですが、申込時は石垣島の離島ターミナルバス停の何処かを知らなかったので少し不安でした。
特筆すべきは、双眼鏡の焦点の合わせ方でした、他のツアー(前日参加)は
真ん中のダイヤルのみでの月を見ての焦点合わせ、こちらは片目(左からの順番)づつの焦点合わせでとっても分かり易くてよく見えて非常に良かったです
星空の説明も分かり易く、レイザーポインターの照射も長く(他ツアーは短すぎ)て目で見て双眼鏡で確認するまで照らし続けて頂きました。
又、天体望遠鏡で星ばかりでなく、月のクレーターも見せて頂きました。
私の星座:獅子座が何故、7月、8月は地平線近くで輝くのかも教えて頂き
全体的に説明は非常に分かり易く、とても理解し易くてとても素晴らしい。
知識的にも役に立ちました、感謝感激です。
今まで知らなかった事を教えて頂いた値打ちのある『星空ツアー』でした。
I participated with a friend. When we arrived, I was disappointed to see the sky covered with clouds, but... the clouds gradually cleared, and we were able to see a sky full of stars, which was amazing. It was fun to look at the stars through binoculars while listening to the detailed explanations! I would like to participate again.
友人と2人で参加しました。
現地に到着した時、雲に覆われていた空を見て残念に思っていたのですが…
どんどん雲が取れていき、満天の星空が見れて最高でした。
双眼鏡で星を見ながら、丁寧な解説を聞くことができて楽しかったです!
また、参加したいと思いました。
Since it was a family trip with my elderly parents, I was a bit concerned about their physical stamina and the cost was not cheap, so I hesitated until the end, but in the end, it was the right decision to book!
Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island were all wonderful!
However, the cycling on Taketomi Island was bumpier than I expected and there were some hills, so it did take quite a bit of stamina, but the distance was short, so my parents in their 70s managed just fine. Especially, Kondoi Beach had a stunningly beautiful sea color!
The taste of the lunch bento was just okay, but it was convenient not having to search for a restaurant or wait in line.
On the way back, you can choose the time of the boat, but at 4 PM, it felt a bit rushed.
Overall, considering the content, I didn't think it was expensive at all. I'm really glad I went!
高齢の両親と一緒の家族旅行だったので、体力的に大丈夫かなという事と、価格的にも安くはないので最後まで迷いましたが、結果、申し込んで正解でした!
西表島、由布島、竹富島、どこも素晴らしかったです!
ただ、竹富島のサイクリングは思った以上にガタガタ道で坂道もあるため、結構体力を使いますが、距離は短かったので70代の両親も何とか大丈夫でした。特にコンドイビーチは海の色が素晴らしく綺麗でした!
昼食のお弁当の味はまあまあでしたが、お店を探したり並んだりせずに済むので簡単に済ませられて良かったです。
帰りは船の時間を選べますが、16時だと少々バタバタしました。
全体的にこれだけの内容だと高いとは思いませんでした。本当に行って良かったです!
Taketomi Island is a wonderful place. The water buffalo cart ride made me feel relaxed. It was also great to be able to move freely, like going to the beach on a rental bicycle. I thought this kind of plan is enjoyable because you don't have to worry about what to do next.
As for my mistake, I panicked because I was unsure about where to park the rental car and almost didn't make it on time for the meeting. It's better to allow a little extra time.
竹富島はいいところですね。水牛車ものんびりした気持ちになれました。レンタサイクルで海岸に行ったりと自由に動けたのもよかったです。こういったプランは次どうするかをいちいち気にしなくて済むので楽だと思いました。
私の失敗としてはレンタカーの駐車場をどうするか迷ったために集合時間に間に合いそうになく本当に焦りました。ちょっと時間に余裕をみたほうがいいですね。
It was great to leisurely explore the island by water buffalo cart. The cute water buffalo and the sound of the sanshin were also wonderful!
水牛車でのんびりと島内を散策できてとてもよかった。
かわいい水牛との記念写真や三線の音色もよかった!
On March 16, I participated in this tour with my elderly parents, two children, my wife, and myself, totaling six people. The tour included transportation from the hotel to the remote island terminal, a high-speed ferry from Ishigaki Port to Ohara Port on Iriomote Island, a mangrove tour boat on the Nakama River, and a sightseeing bus to the ox cart boarding area for Yufu Island, all of which were well coordinated, allowing us to participate with great peace of mind.
Moreover, the boat driver for the mangrove tour and the bus driver to the ox cart boarding area provided explanations that rivaled those of a guide, making it very interesting to listen to them. In particular, the bus driver shared many details about the uniqueness of Iriomote Island, including the food chain where special natural monuments eat other special natural monuments and various efforts made for the protection of the Iriomote wildcat, all while mixing in some jokes, which made it very enjoyable. My parents, who joined us, also said, "That bus guide was really great," and I believe it was a tour that left us all very satisfied. Thank you for the truly wonderful memories. It was a great way to show appreciation to my parents.
3/16に高齢の両親、子供2人、妻と私の6人でこのツアーに参加しました。
ツアーは、ホテルから離島ターミナル間の送迎が付いていた上、石垣港から西表島大原港までの高速フェリー、仲間川マングローブツアーの遊覧ボート、由布島への牛車乗り場までの観光バス等、全てが連動していて非常に安心して参加できました。
おまけにマングローブツアーの遊覧ボートの運転手さん、由布島への牛車乗り場までの観光バスの運転手さんがガイドさん顔負けの説明をしてくれて、興味深く聞かせてもらいました。
特にバスの運転手さんは、時折ジョークも交えて西表島の特異性(特別天然記念物が特別天然記念物を食べるという食物連鎖が起きていること、イリオモテヤマネコ保護にいろいろな工夫がなされていること等)を非常に詳しく、楽しく聞かせていただきました。一緒に行った両親も「あのバスガイドさん、凄く良かったね」と言っておりましたし、大満足のツアーだったと思います。本当に楽しい思い出をありがとうございました。良い親孝行ができました。
This time, we traveled with our dog, but we couldn't ride together on the water buffalo cart. However, they took good care of him at the office, and he had a great time. Since he's a dog, I was worried he would bark when he saw the water buffalo, but there's nothing we can do about that. Thank you for the wonderful time.
今回は我が家のワンちゃんと一緒に旅をしましたが、水牛車では一緒に乗ることはできませんでしたが、事務所で預かって頂いて確り楽しませてもらいました。
やはり犬なので水牛を見つけると吠えるので心配でしたが、これもまたしょうがない。
楽しい時間を有り難うございます。
For those who want to explore the remote islands in a nutshell, I recommend it because you can visit various places in one day! The water buffalo cart from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island crosses the strait and offers wonderful scenery, which was very nice. The atmosphere is different from the water buffalo cart experience on Taketomi Island, so I was glad to have that experience in one day! Unfortunately, the lunch was not delicious. Also, it was disappointing that the female driver and guide for the bus tour on Taketomi Island had poor service. For those who are concerned about the boat's swaying, I recommend the premium seat on the boat (500 yen)!
とりあえずざっくり離島を巡りたいって方には
1日で色んな所へ行けるのでおすすめです!
西表島から由布島へ渡る水牛車は海峡を渡り
素敵な景色でとてもよかったです☆
竹富島での水牛車とはまた違う雰囲気なので
1日で経験出来て良かったです!
残念だったことはお昼のお食事が美味しくなかったです。
そして、竹富島でのバス観光担当だった女性の
運転手兼ガイドの方の対応が悪かったのが残念でした。
船の揺れが気になるって方には船のプレミアム
シート(500円)がおすすめです!
Since there was a family member who got seasick, we decided to skip the island hopping and only took a tour of Taketomi Island. The high-speed boat ride was quick. The water buffalo cart was also very nice, but there were some photo stops that were a bit of a hassle. I think it's unnecessary when riding a bicycle...
I believe a bicycle is the best way to explore the town. Even though it was March, it was hot. Both Kondoi Beach and Kaiji Beach were beautiful and impressive. It's a bit more than a 10-minute bike ride, but definitely worth it! If you make a reservation in advance, the guidance is quicker, so I recommend checking the weather and booking ahead.
船酔いする家族がいたので、離島巡りは断念し竹富島のみのツアーでした。
高速船で、あっという間です。
水牛車もとても良かったですが、所々写真撮影があって、ちょっと面倒くさかったです。
自転車乗る時のは不要だと思います…
街中を巡るなら自転車がベストだと思います。
3月とは言え、暑かったので。
コンドイ浜、カイジ浜共に綺麗で感動しました。自転車で10分以上ですが、ぜひ!
予約しておくと案内が早いので、お天気を見て予約をオススメします。
The water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island takes you around the village, offering a different charm compared to Yubu Island, and it was enjoyable (*´∇`*). After that, I went to Nishizaki Pier, Koidoi Beach, and Hoshizuna no Hama to take photos... I wanted to take my time at my own pace, so I chose cycling! It was a bit sweaty, but it felt really nice! However, be careful in the village as the gravel can catch your tires and make you almost fall!
こちら竹富島の水牛車は集落をまわるので、由布島とまた違った赴きがあり、楽しかったです(*´∇`*)
その後は西桟橋・コイドイビーチ・星砂の浜へ写真を撮りに…自分のペースで時間を使いたいので、サイクリングを選びました!少し汗ばむくらいでしたが、とても気持ち良かったです!
でも集落内は砂利でタイヤをとられて転けそうになったりしたので、要注意です!
Even though it was March, the nights were quite cold, but I was moved by the starry sky that stretched 360° around me! I was very satisfied to see shooting stars as well☆ The explanation of the constellations was clear and easy to understand, using a laser pointer, and the hour flew by in no time! I was worried about not being able to see the stars due to clouds, which made me hesitate to book the stargazing tour, but the appeal of being able to join on the day, cancel, and the availability of transportation (though it was an extra fee, it was helpful since many tours meet on-site) made me decide to participate in this stargazing tour! Thank you for the wonderful experience! I will join again when I visit Ishigaki Island ((o(^∇^)o))
3月と言えど夜はかなり寒かったですが、360°見渡す限りの星空に感動!流れ星も観れて大変満足でした☆
星座の解説もレーザーポインターを使って分かりやすく、あっという間の1時間でした!
曇りで星が見えなかったらどうしようと星空ツアー予約を悩んでましたが、当日参加やキャンセルOK、送迎あり(別途有料ですが現地集合のツアーが多いので助かりました)というのが魅力でこの星空ツアーに参加決めました!
感動をありがとうございます!石垣島に行ったらまた参加します((o(^∇^)o))
I had a wonderfully relaxing time in Ishigaki and exploring Taketomi Island. I definitely want to go back. Next time, I’d like to experience the night and early morning life on Taketomi Island!
石垣宿泊~竹富島観光
すごくのんびりした時間を過ごせます。
絶対また行きたくなります。
今度は夜&早朝の竹富島生活をしてみたいな‼
