I was nervous, but from the very beginning, they approached me in a friendly manner, and I had a lot of fun! The conversations before and after the shoot were great; they shared various tourist spots in Miyako Island that I wanted to know more about, and the vibe was excellent. I'm really glad I chose this!

Having the same name also created a sense of familiarity.

Thank you for taking such wonderful photos! ✨

緊張してましたが、初めから気さくに話しかけてくれてとても楽しく望めました！
撮影前後のトークも、もっと話してたいくらい色々な宮古島の観光名所なども教えてくれたり、ノリもよくて、頼んでよかったと思います！

同じ名前ということもあって親近感もありました

素敵な写真を撮っていただきありがとうございました✨

In mid-February, the waves were rough, and due to the weather and the morning time, the sun was hidden by clouds, making it even colder... I started with a feeling of anxiety, wondering if I would be able to see a sea turtle.

Even though it was cold in the water, I kept moving my legs, which made it more bearable. After swimming a bit, I didn't see any sea turtles, but the coral reefs and the small, colorful fish swarming around them were so beautiful that I forgot about the cold and the turtles, and I was captivated. I felt that this experience was worth it just for that.

Thanks to the guide's experience and intuition, while swimming and changing course, we encountered a large sea turtle swimming gracefully! It was eating algae on the coral reef, and I was able to get close enough to observe it closely. It was so moving that I wanted to keep watching it and forget the time.

That day, we encountered two turtles, which was a bit fewer than expected, but I was able to take my time and observe them closely, and seeing both large and small sizes was interesting as I could understand the differences!

I highly recommend this as one of the activities you must experience when visiting Miyako Island!

2月の中旬で波は荒め、天候と午前中ということもあり、太陽が雲に隠れているので、余計に寒い。。。ウミガメに会えるかなと不安な気持ちでスタートしました。

海に入っても寒いことは寒いのですが、終始足をバタバタ動かしているのでまだマシです。少し泳いで、ウミガメはいないのですが、珊瑚礁、珊瑚礁に群がる小さくてカラフルなお魚がとても美しくて、寒さもウミガメのことも忘れて笑、見惚れるほどでした。これだけでも、体験した甲斐があると思いました。

ガイドさんの経験と嗅覚？で、進路変更しながら泳いでいると、大きなウミガメが優雅に泳いでいるところに遭遇！珊瑚礁につく藻などを食べているところでしたが、触れそうなほど近くまで行き、その様子をじっくりと見ることができました。時を忘れてずっと見ていたいほどの感動でした。

その日は2匹の遭遇と、数としては少なめでしたが、時間をかけてじっくり見れたのと、大小の2種類のサイズで見れたので違いも分かって興味深かったです！

宮古島に訪れた際には、必ず体験してほしいアクティビティのひとつとしてオススメします＾＾

It was my first time participating in the jungle night tour, so I was a bit anxious, but the guide was very attentive, and I had a great time until the end! They provided us with rubber boots, rain gear, and flashlights, so there was nothing we needed to prepare ourselves, making it very easy to join. While some aspects, like stargazing and encounters with nocturnal creatures, depend on nature, spending time in a completely dark space surrounded by nature was very thrilling. It became an unforgettable memory. I would like to participate again in a different season next time.

ジャングルナイトツアーに参加するのは初めてのことだったので不安でしたが、ガイドも丁寧で最後まで楽しく過ごせました！長靴や雨具、懐中電灯も用意していただけたので、自分たちで調達するものはなくとても楽に参加できました。星空鑑賞や夜の生き物との出会いなど、自然に左右される部分もありますが真っ暗の中自然に囲まれた空間で過ごすのはとてもドキドキしました。忘れられない思い出になりました。次はまた季節を変えて参加してみたいと思っています。

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。

I had a great time hearing various stories! Since the cherry blossoms are currently in bloom, we made an unscheduled stop to see them, and the driver slowed down the taxi so I could take photos of the cherry blossoms and the scenery (in an area with little traffic). It was a wonderful service.

I was a bit anxious about my first trip to Okinawa and honestly worried that taking a sightseeing taxi might become awkward during the ride, but it turned out to be a very enjoyable journey. I'm glad I chose this service. Thank you very much to the driver who took care of us this time! I would love to request your service again when I visit Okinawa in the future!

いろいろなお話が聞けて楽しかったです！
今ちょうど桜が咲いているということでもともと予定にはなかった桜が見えるところに寄っていただいたり、タクシーから桜や景色の写真を撮っているとスピード落としてくださったり（交通量の少ないところです）と、とても素敵なサービスをしてくださいました。
初めての沖縄旅行で不安もあり、正直観光タクシーって道中気まずくなったりしないかなと少し心配していたのですが、そんなことなくとても楽しい旅になりました。こちらにお願いして良かったと思います。今回担当してくださった運転手さんどうもありがとうございました！いつかまた沖縄旅行に行くときにはまたお願いしたいです！

It was my first time participating alone, but I was given very detailed information about the sightseeing content, meeting time, and souvenirs, so I was able to enjoy the tour without any worries. The conversations in the car were so enjoyable that time flew by. The topics I was unfamiliar with and found interesting made me want to take notes, as the speaker was very good at sharing information. When I visit Okinawa again, I look forward to trying a different course.

初めての1人参加だったけれど、観光内容、集合時間、お土産など、とても詳しく教えていただき、不安などなく、楽しく観光できました。
車内でもお話が楽しくあっという間に時間がたってしまいました。
知らない事、興味のあるお話は、思わずメモを取ってしまうほど、お話もお上手でした？
また沖縄にいく時には、違うコースも楽しみたいと思います

Writing in Chinese should help some friends from China ₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞ ̑̑
Since I don't have an international driver's license and thought renting a car would be troublesome, I wanted to save time to visit Takachiho Gorge and Sōun-kyō. Originally, I planned to take a bus, but while researching, I stumbled upon this website. Honestly, I was quite worried about whether there would be any issues when booking... Even on the day of the trip, I felt a bit uneasy.
However, when I saw the taxi driver's decorated car, I relaxed completely. The entire experience was very pleasant. The driver was very professional, both as a driver and a guide, familiar with various routes, and had an elegant demeanor. He also tailored our trip based on our preferences through our conversations, taking us to places we might be interested in. He introduced us to many attractions' origins and details, took us to eat at great little restaurants, and shared information about local specialties. Along the way, he also chatted with us about local customs.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. Not only did it save time, but we also got to visit every attraction and learned a lot about the local culture.
I am really grateful!

The only requirement is that you should know a bit of Japanese. I lived in Tokyo for a few years, so communication wasn't a big issue, and the driver also knew a little English. Although translation technology is quite advanced now, back-and-forth communication can take some time, especially when you're in the car and can't wait... So I suggest knowing a bit of Japanese is better! It feels very safe and secure! Plus, the pick-up and drop-off are directly at the hotel, and the service was really excellent＼\\٩( 'ω' )و //／ If any friends from China see this comment while planning to visit, feel free to make a reservation!!! It's really great!

用中文写应该能帮助一些中国朋友₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞ ̑̑
因为没有国际驾照加上觉得租车麻烦又想节省时间去高千穗峡和草千里，本来预定是要坐巴士之类的在查资料的时候偶尔看到了这个网站。老实说预定的时候我还挺担心会不会有什么问题……哪怕是到了当天我也有些不安。
但是看到出租车司机的痛车的时候整个人都放松了，全程非常愉悦，司机不管是作为司机还是导游都非常专业，熟知各种路线，举止优雅，并且还会从聊天中根据我们的喜好带我们去我们可能有兴趣的地方。也会给我们介绍很多景点的由来和细节，带我们去吃好吃的小餐馆，以及给我们介绍那里的特产比较好啥的。一路上也跟我们聊了一些当地的风俗。
整体非常愉快，不仅节约了时间，还把每个景点都玩到了，除此之外还了解了到了很多当地的文化。
真的非常感谢！

唯一有点要求的是得会点日语，我在东京生活过几年所以交流上问题不大，对方也会一点英语。虽然现在翻译机技术也很成熟了，但一来一去会耽误一些时间，尤其是在车上的时候是等不了了……所以建议还是会点日语好一些！非常安心安全！而且接送都是直接到旅店，服务真的非常好了＼\\٩( 'ω' )و //／如果有中国来玩的小伙伴偶尔看到这条评论，放心上预约！！！真的很好！

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

Since it was a morning tour, I was able to enjoy Okinawa until the end. However, the Gyokusendo Cave was longer than I expected, and after watching the Haisai Show, I was worried that my elderly mother wouldn't make it back to the bus on time, so I had to hold her hand and run for the latter half of the tour. I think it would have been better if there had been a bit more detailed information about how long it would take to walk.

午前中のツアーだったので、沖縄を最後まで楽しめました。
ただ、玉泉洞が思った以上に長く、ハイサイショーを観てから見学すると年配の母の足では、バスの時間に間に合わなくなりそうで、後半ずっと手を引いて走りました。
歩いてどれくらい時間がかかるとか、少し詳しく説明があれば良かったと思います。

It's been 20 years since I visited Hokkaido in winter. Originally, I planned to participate in an event, but since I happened to get a ticket for the last flight the next day, I decided to include a bus tour as well. A tour where I don't have to drive is relaxing, and I can enjoy unlimited delicious beer! I thought it would have been even better if they had offered beer during lunch, but overall, I was satisfied.

The travel time was quicker than I expected, and I was able to stop by the Ice Festival and Bear Ranch, which weren't on the itinerary, making it a fun experience. If you're looking for a light sightseeing option, this seems more than sufficient.

冬の北海道は20年ぶり。本来はイベント参加が目的でしたがその翌日に偶々取れた航空券が最終便だったこともあり、それならバスツアーを入れ込もうと思い立ちました。自分が運転しないツアーは気が楽で美味しいビールも飲み放題！昼食時にビールの斡旋してくれたらもっと良かったなあ、などとも思いましたが概ね満足です。
移動時間が思ったよりも早く、予定にはなかった氷濤やクマ牧場にも寄ることができて楽しく過ごせました。さらりと観光するならこれで充分に思えます。

Before it started, I felt scared, but once it was over, I wished I could have played more. Wearing the dry suit was quite challenging since it was too thick, but I was able to put it on with some help. The people I was with were all really nice, and I had a great time.

はじまる前は怖さがありましたが、終わってみればもっと遊んでいたかったです。ドライスーツを着るのは厚着し過ぎてしまったのでなかなか大変でしたが、手伝っていただいて着れました。ご一緒した方々もいい方ばかりで本当に楽しかったです。

The guide's detailed explanations and the driver's safe driving made for a great time. I think it's a good experience for those visiting Shodoshima for the first time.

ガイドさんの細やかな案内と、バスの運転手さんの安全運転で、いい時間でした
初めて小豆島を訪れる人たちにはいいと思います

I participated with my 3-year-old child. It was truly an adventurous tour through a pitch-black jungle and along the seaside, about a 30-minute bus ride from the island terminal, with a flashlight in hand! The guides shared many stories during the round trip on the bus, making the journey very enjoyable.

During the exploration, they handled my child's wild requests and demands with humor, and there were about 20 other participants who were all very warm and friendly. We were able to find many interesting things together, including examples of the world's three major bizarre insects and models of the Devil Fruit!

We moved slowly while searching for living creatures, so my 3-year-old was able to keep up without falling behind or causing any trouble. The day before it had rained, and it had been cloudy until our meeting time, so I had given up hope of seeing the stars. However, we were able to see countless stars by the seaside, which was very satisfying. Thank you!

3歳子連れで参加しました。
離島ターミナルからバスで30分ほどの真っ暗なジャングルと海辺を懐中電灯片手に本当に探険するツアーでした！ガイドのお兄さんたちは往復のバスの中もたくさんのお話をして下さりバスの車中からとても楽しく過ごすことができました。
探検の際も子どもの無茶振りや要望にも笑いを取りつつ対応して下さり、周りの参加者も20名ほどいらっしゃいましたが本当に温かい方が多く
世界三大奇虫や悪魔の実のモデルなど色々なものをみんなでたくさん見つけることができました！
生き物を探しながらゆっくり進むので3歳児でも全然遅れを取らず周りに迷惑をかけずついていけるペースでした！
前日は雨、その日の集合まではずっと曇りだったので星は見れないかなと諦めていたものの、実際に海辺で無数の星を見ることができ大変満足です。
ありがとうございました！

With a one-day pass, you can ride without worrying about time. While sightseeing, shopping, and dining, the perfect bus will come around just when you need it at each tourist spot. It was cold in the morning, but by noon, sitting in a spot without wind protection was no problem. My five-year-old was in a good mood. When it rained, they quickly distributed raincoats even for passing showers.

1日券で乗車
時間を気にしなくても観光、買い物、食事などしてるうちに、ちょうどいいバスが来るというサイクルが、降りた観光スポットごとにできた。
朝一は寒さはあったが、昼頃からは風除けのない席でも問題なかった。五歳の子供もご機嫌。
雨が降った際は、通り雨でもすぐにレインコートなら配布をしてくれた。

We participated as a pair. The day before was cloudy, but today it was nice and sunny from the morning. We started from a calm spot near the sea, and depending on the weather, we went out to the sea along the way. I liked the green color of the water. There is always an instructor present, so it's a safe optional tour. The meeting parking lot is small, so I think it's better to arrive early. Also, there is about a two-hour gap between the morning and afternoon tours. Since there is time for lunch, I think it's a good idea to check for places to eat in advance.

2人で参加しました。前の日は、曇りでしたが、今日は、朝から晴れで良かったです。海の近くの穏やかな所からスタート、天気次第で途中は海に出ます。海の色が、グリーンなのが良かったです。常時インストラクターが付いているので安全なオプショナルツアーです。待ち合わせの駐車場が狭いので、早めに到着するようにした方がいいと思います。それから、午前と午後のツアーの間が２時間くらい空いています。昼食の時間があるので、食べる場所を事前に確認した方が良いと思います。

I was very happy that the guide prepared cushions for us and provided warm drinks during lunch. The explanations of the spots along the way were also very detailed and wonderful. Thank you very much.

Now, to the main point. I am 59 years old and will soon be 60. I felt uncomfortable because it seemed that the guide was wary of my age, thinking I might retire or cause trouble. Although I may not look it, I have backpacked through 61 countries and have even climbed to the top of Mount Fuji. I always participate in hiking and mountain climbing abroad. Early in the tour, the guide mentioned to the group as a whole, "If I feel this person cannot make it to the top, they will retire." I was told this directly, and others felt the same way. I thought it would have been better if the guide had just told me directly if they thought I couldn't climb. I know that in climbing, the slower people go ahead, but it felt like they were judging me solely based on my age, creating an atmosphere that suggested I would be slow and unable to keep up, which really brought my spirits down before we even started climbing.

Points that particularly bothered me:

1. When I climbed the steep shortcut path on the trolley road and was out of breath, the guide said, "If you're out of breath from this, you won't make it to the top." It wasn't just "you can't do it," but rather it felt like a dismissive remark that really broke my spirit. At that moment, I resolved not to fall behind the guide's pace and to not inconvenience anyone, determined to see Jomon Sugi and make it back down. If the guide had said, "You did well. There are tougher parts ahead, but keep it up," I would have felt encouraged to say, "Yes, I will do my best and follow your lead."

2. When I was not around, another woman asked the guide from behind, "Is there an age limit for this tour?" and the guide mistakenly thought I had asked and replied, "Just one more year." Everyone heard this conversation. Is it appropriate for a guide to disclose personal information in front of other participants? Is it acceptable to share personal information on the Jomon Sugi tour? The guide also made comments to an older man, saying, "You're born in the year of the horse, right?" and "I share the same zodiac." (It seemed like they just wanted to appear younger by mentioning their age.) I felt that personal information was not being handled properly here. It is common sense in society that personal information should not be disclosed. Furthermore, after returning home, I confirmed that the age restrictions for this tour were only two points (10 years and older, and those under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian), and there was no mention anywhere that those over 60 were not allowed. This was the worst tour, and I really wished they had declined my participation from the start due to concerns about my age. I would have preferred to join the group with the other older guide. Since the guide mentioned it, please make sure to clearly state the age limit for this tour as 60 years old in the future.

I believe that guiding members to their destination within a time limit is a job that comes with pressure. However, it is disappointing to see such worries reflected in the guide's demeanor. I was truly, truly uncomfortable for the entire 10 hours. Most participants start with a sense of "excitement" and "anticipation," and I hope this is recognized once again. Thank you.

ガイドさんが座布団を用意してくれていたこと、昼食時に温かい飲み物を提供してくれたこと、とてもうれしかったです。途中のスポットの説明もとても詳しくて素晴らしかったです。本当にありがとうございました

本題です。私は59歳でもうすぐ６０歳になります。若干年齢が高いことでガイドさんがリタイアもしくはトラブルを警戒されてしているのが伝わってきて不快でした。見かけによりませんが、私は海外61か国バックパッカーで回り、富士山の頂上にも登ったこともあり、海外ではいつもハイキングや山登りに参加しています。ツアー開始後早い段階で全体への注意事項として「ガイドがこの人は上までいけないと感じた時はリタイアになります」などのことを全体に向けて言うような感じで私に向かって言われていました。これは他の人も感じていたと言ってくださいました。私が登れそうになれないと思うなら私に直接言っていただければよいのにと思いました。登山では遅い人は前にいくというのは鉄則でそれは知っていましたよ。ですが年齢だけで判断してさもこいつは遅くてついてこれないだろうと言う雰囲気を醸し出されていてそれが本当にビンビン伝わってきて、登る前からテンションが非常に下がりました。

特に気になった点は

①トロッコ道で近道3分の険しい道を上がったとき私は上がり終わってフーフー言っていたら、「こんなので息があがってしまうのであれば上まで無理」ってガイドさんに言われました。無理ですでもなく無理って吐き捨てるように言われ気持ちが本当に折れた瞬間でした。この時私は絶対にガイドさんのスピードに遅れないでみんなに迷惑をかけず、縄文杉を見て下まで降りてやると心に決めました。ここで、もし、「よく頑張りました。もっと厳しいところがあるけどこの調子で頑張ってください」と言っていただければ「はい頑張ります、ガイドさんについていきますのでご指導お願いします」ということをガイドさんに言えたと思います。

②私のいないところでガイドさんの後ろから他の女性が「このツアー年齢制限あるんですか？」と聞いたところ私がたずねたと勘違いして「あと1歳」といわれました。みなさんこの会話を聞いていらっしゃいました。個人情報を他の参加者の前で勝手に公開するのはガイドとしていかがなものでしょうか？縄文杉のツアーでは個人情報は出しても大丈夫なのでしょうか？他の年配の男の人にも「〇〇さんは午年ですね？」「私も同じ干支なんですよ」と若いアピールをされていました。（自分の年齢を言って若いと言われたいだけですよね）こちらでは個人情報の管理は守られいないということを感じました。個人情報は絶対に言ってはいけないというのは社会の常識です。更に帰宅後再確認しましたがこのツアーの年齢制限は2項目（・10歳以上・18歳以下は保護者同伴）のみで60歳以上不可ということはどこにも明記されていませんでした。最悪のツアーだったので、本当に最初から私のことを年齢が心配だからと言ってツアーに入るのを断っていただきたかった。私はもう一つのおじいさんのガイドさんのグループに入れてもらいたかったです。ガイドさんが言われたので今後、必ずこのツアーの制限年齢を60歳までと明記してくださいね。
時間の制限のある中メンバーを目的地に案内して戻ってこなくてはいけないガイドはプレッシャーがかかる仕事だと思います。ただ、こちらにそういう心配が見えてしまうのは残念です。本当に本当に10時間ずっと不愉快でした。なぜならほとんどの参加者は初めは「楽しみ」「わくわく」感をもって参加しているからです。そのことを今一度認識していただきたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I believe the biggest advantage of joining a tour is that you can "focus on walking." There are quite a few paths without handrails and slippery areas, but thanks to the tour guide's constant reminders, I was able to concentrate on trekking with peace of mind. I think solo trekking is better after you've done it at least twice.

ツアーに参加する一番のメリットは「歩くことに集中できること」だと思います。手すりのない道や滑りやすい道が少なくないんですが、ツアーさんがその都度声がけをしてくれるおかげで、安心してトレッキングに集中することができました。一人トレッキングは2回目以降がいいと思います。

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。

Cathrine Lee was a very nice and friendly guide. Overall, it was a great experience, and time was managed efficiently.

Cathrine Lee was a very nice and friendly guide. Overall great experience and time was calculated efficiently.

I think it's great that you can take a day trip from Hakata Station to Dazaifu Tenmangu, Yufuin, and Beppu Onsen! Dazaifu was also very nice, but since there was hardly any time to stay in Beppu Onsen, I wish there had been a tour that focused only on Yufuin and Beppu Onsen! The guide was from China, and they were polite and good!

博多駅から日帰りで、太宰府天満宮、由布院、別府温泉に行けるのはいいとおもいます！
大宰府もとても良かったですが、別府温泉がほぼ滞在時間がなかったので、由布院と別府温泉だけのツアーがあったら良かったなと思いました！
ガイドさんは中国の方でしたが、丁寧でよかったです！

I felt that two hours was a bit short. Three hours would have been better.
I was a little disappointed because I thought the carts at Nago Pineapple Park would be like those at a golf course.
Overall, I think it was a good value tour.

２時間では短い気がしました。３時間でよかったです
ナゴパイナップルパークのカートはゴルフ場にあるカートみたいのだと
思っていたのでちょっとがっかりでした
全体的にはお得なツアーだったと思います

There were only three Japanese participants, including us, on a fully booked bus. Despite that, our guide skillfully used both Japanese and Chinese to kindly and thoroughly explain the sights we saw from the bus, as well as recommend souvenirs and food, making it a very enjoyable tour.

Traveling around Noboribetsu, Lake Toya, Showa Shinzan, and Lake Shikotsu without a rental car can be quite challenging. However, this tour allowed us to reach each destination while receiving various guidance during the bus ride, and we had a reasonable amount of free time at each location, so it wasn't the typical rushed tour. It might have been a coincidence, but the fact that participants from overseas also managed to keep to the schedule without being late was likely due to the free time that was allocated. I'm grateful to everyone who participated together.

バス満席の中、日本人の参加者は私たちを含め3名だけ。そんな中ガイドさんは、日本語・中国語を上手に使って車窓から見えるものや、お勧めの土産や食べ物など親切にそして丁寧に説明してくれ、とても楽しいツアーでした。
登別、洞爺湖、昭和新山、支笏湖をレンタカーなしでめぐるのはとても大変です。でも、このツアーはバスに乗って車中いろいろなガイドをしてもらっているうちにそれぞれの目的地に着き、それぞれの場所ではそれなりに自由時間もあるので、よくありがちな急ぎ足のツアーではありませんでした。たまたまなのかもしれませんが、海外からの参加者の方も集合時間にほぼ遅れることなく行程が進めたのも自由時間が確保出来た一因なのかもしれません。一緒に参加された方々にも感謝です。

I was quite anxious since I participated with my mother, who is not a good swimmer, but the guide was kind and led us well! My mother was initially scared, but she gradually became captivated by the beautiful fish of Miyako Island and enjoyed herself. Since we participated in February, it was a bit chilly, but wearing a wetsuit made it especially comfortable during snorkeling. Unfortunately, we didn't see any sea turtles, but it was a wonderful experience to kayak and snorkel in the beautiful waters of Miyako Island.♡

今回、泳ぎが苦手な母との参加だったので不安も大きかったのですがガイドさんが優しく先導してくれました！母も始めは怖がっていましたが徐々に宮古島の綺麗な魚の虜になっていて楽しんでいました。2月での参加だったため少し寒さを感じましたがウェットスーツを着用していたのでシュノーケリング中は特に気になりませんでした。残念ながらウミガメは見られなかったのですが綺麗な宮古島の海でカヌー、シュノーケルが出来て素敵な体験になりました♡

I usually commute by car and do desk work, so I was a bit anxious about hiking for two consecutive days. However, the guides were entertaining, and the entire experience felt like a wonderful space filled with highlights. It was challenging, but I had a fun and enriching two days.

Above all, I felt the guides' consideration for us to enjoy ourselves without injury, and time flew by quickly. I can only express my gratitude to the guides who carried a lot of our luggage while guiding us with smiles.

Fortunately, the dates I participated in did not have significant weather disruptions, and there were no routes with major risks. However, there were many places that felt more like climbing than walking, so I believe it's best to hike with a local guide the first time you go. I definitely want to explore with a local guide again on my next visit. I think this tour has attractions that you can't experience just with friends or acquaintances.

Additionally, I think those who don't usually exercise should practice on nearby mountains at least two or three times before coming. Especially in Shiratani Unsuikyo, where the footing is quite poor, practicing beforehand would allow you to enjoy the scenery more and reduce fatigue.

普段車通勤、デスクワークで運動をしない為、2日間連続での山登りには少々不安がありましたが、ガイドさんたちの話も面白いし、全体とおして全てが見所のような素敵な空間だったので、大変でしたがたのしく、濃い2日間をすごせました。


何よりガイドさんたちの、楽しく怪我なく過ごして欲しいという配慮、気持ちを感じてとてもあっという間に時間がすぎました。
私たちのためにたくさんの荷物を持ちながら笑顔で案内してくれたガイドさんたちには感謝しかありません。

幸い自分が参加した日程は、大きな天候の崩れがなく大きなリスクがあるようなルートはありませんでしたが、私からみると道ではないようなところを登ることもおおく、初めて行く時は必ず現地ガイドさんがいる状態で登った方が良いと感じました。
私は2回目以降来た時も絶対に現地ガイドさんとまわりたいとおもいました。
友人、知人達だけでは感じられない魅力があるツアーだとおもいます。


また、普段運動されてない方は最低2.3回近くの山で練習されてから来た方が良いと思います。
特に白谷雲水峡はかなり足場がわるいので練習されてたほうが、より景色も楽しめるし、疲労も残りずらいんじゃないかと感じました。

Since both Saijō-ō-taki and the Gangala Valley are difficult to access without a car, I used this tour. Walking in the rain was a bit challenging, but I'm glad I participated. However, I think it's strange that the entrance fee for Saijō-ō-taki is not included in the tour price. With only two locations to visit, is there really anyone who wouldn't want to see this place?

　齊場御嶽もガンガラーの谷も、車がないと行きづらい場所なのでこのツアーを利用しました。
　雨の中歩くのはちょっと大変でしたが、参加できてよかったと思います。
　ただ、斎場御嶽の入場料代がツアー料金に含まれていないのは、おかしいと思います。2か所しか行かないのに、ここの見学をしない人なんている？

Although there was a brief period of light snow, we were generally blessed with good weather and there was hardly any traffic. As a result, we were able to enjoy watching the adorable animals for a full three and a half hours, making it a satisfying day tour.

We successfully captured on video the highlights we were looking forward to: (1) the penguin walk, (2) the polar bear feeding time, and (3) the seal going through the pipe.

Thank you to the driver for your safe driving. And thank you to the guide for the enjoyable conversation along the way.

途中小雪が降る時間もありましたが、概ね良い天気に恵まれ、渋滞も殆どありませんでした。このため園内でたっぷり3時間半可愛い動物たちを見ることができて満足できる1日ツアーでした。
お目当てだった(1)ペンギンお散歩、(2)シロクマもぐもぐタイム、(3)アザラシのパイプくぐりをそれぞれバッチリ、ビデオに撮ることができました。
運転手さん、安全運転ありがとう。
ガイドさん、道すがらの楽しいトークありがとう。

The world surrounded by snow and ice was just like the world of Frozen! It was filled with various colors from the illuminations, and especially, the Shikotsu Lake blue was beautiful. I was prepared for the freezing cold, but it wasn't that bad, and the guide said it was perfect weather! I was really glad to spend a meaningful winter night.♪

雪と氷で囲まれた世界は、まるでアナ雪の世界でした！　イルミネーションで様々な色彩にあふれ、特に、支笏湖ブルーがきれいでした。凍てつく寒さを覚悟してましたが、それほどでもなく、ガイドさんは、パーフェクトな天気だとおっしゃってました！　冬の夜を有意義に過ごせて、とても良かったです♪

The magnificent scale of Hell Valley in Noboribetsu is impressive. I was moved by the Ice Festival at Lake Shikotsu. The sight of Showa Shinzan... Everything was a first-time experience, and I was very satisfied.

登別の地獄谷の壮快なスケール、圧巻です。
支笏湖の氷濤祭りには感動しました。
昭和新山の姿も...
全てが初めての体験で大満足しました。

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。

Winter in Hokkaido.
I was able to efficiently visit places that are difficult to access individually. On the bus, I could listen to the guide through headphones, and the bus was also spacious and comfortable.
I had no issues at all, but at the Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill, the sheep were inside their pen, and the snow play area is only open until 3 PM, so I recommend the morning tour for those with children.
The lift at Okurayama Jump Stadium had a separate fee, but the entrance fee for Hitsujigaoka was included, and considering transportation costs and convenience, I think it's a great tour.
The tour guide was bright and elegant, and she had a good understanding of the area, providing detailed explanations.
I was able to make the half day from lunch to dinner on the day I arrived in Hokkaido very meaningful.
Thank you very much.

冬の北海道。
個人では訪れにくい場所に効率よく観光に行けました。バス内ではヘッドホンを付けて案内を聞く事が出来、またバス内も空いていて快適でした。
私は全く問題ありませんでしたが羊ヶ丘展望台は羊も小屋の中でしたし、雪遊びコーナーも15時までなのでお子さんがいる方は午前のツアー参加をお勧めします。　
大倉山ジャンプ競技場のリフトは別料金でしたが、羊ヶ丘の入場料は込みでしたし、交通費や利便性を考えるとお得なツアーだと思います。
添乗員さんも明るく上品な方でしたし、土地勘もあり、色々詳しく説明してくださいました。
北海道到着した日のお昼から夕飯までの半日をとても有意義な時間にする事ができました。
ありがとうございました
