All Reviews for Bus Tours

I considered a plan to go individually, but the connections between the ferry and bus just didn't work out well... In the end, I signed up for this tour.

On the day of the tour, the weather was bad with rain on and off from the morning, but since the plan involved a lot of traveling by vehicle, it turned out to be comfortable for sightseeing even with kids. The hotel pick-up was very helpful.

【Iriomote Island】
It takes about an hour from Ishigaki Port to Ohara Port on Iriomote Island. The ferry is large and didn't sway as much as I expected, so I felt safe riding it. There are restrooms on board as well.
There are restrooms at Ohara Port too, but there are few of them and they can get crowded, so I recommend using the restroom on the ferry.

Upon arriving at Ohara Port, we immediately transferred to a boat for a mangrove cruise. We went upstream and then back downstream for about an hour. Everything we saw was fascinating, and the time flew by☆

【Yufu Island】
After getting off the boat, a sightseeing bus was waiting, and we departed right away. The bus driver also served as a guide, sharing stories to keep us entertained during the ride.
In about 20 minutes, we arrived at the water buffalo cart boarding area on Yufu Island. We rode the water buffalo cart to cross over to Yufu Island. It was a unique experience, and the kids were thrilled.

We arrived at Yufu Island! Here, we finally had the chance to use the restroom. If you need to go, be cautious as the restrooms are limited. We had lunch prepared at the restaurant, and then we had some free time. We had about an hour and a half on the island, but with kids, that time goes by quickly. Personally, I recommend the butterfly garden. It was my first time seeing so many swallowtail butterflies flying around. (Of course, there are caterpillars too, so be cautious if you're not a fan.) As we strolled around the island, before we knew it, it was time to gather again. We rode the water buffalo cart back as well. On the return bus, both parents and kids were fast asleep. After getting off the bus, we boarded the ferry heading to Taketomi Island.

【Taketomi Island】
We arrived at Taketomi Island in about 40 minutes. Once we arrived, the itinerary split according to the plan. Our family had the 'bus + glass-bottom boat' plan, so we took the bus to various spots around the island.

First, we went to Kaiji Beach, famous for its star sand. We had 15 minutes of free time here. We stuck sand to our palms and searched for star sand with the kids. In the end, we found two beautiful pieces☆ The kids were overjoyed.

Next, we headed to the village. We also had about 15 minutes of free time here. Honestly, we couldn't take our time sightseeing. We just soaked in the atmosphere. We managed to have some soft serve ice cream.

While moving by bus, we admired Kondoi Beach and headed to the glass-bottom boat boarding area. Due to the rain, the water clarity wasn't as good as on sunny days, but the boat captain helped us find spots where we could see fish, and we were able to show the kids the swimming fish. There were clownfish among the coral reefs, and the kids were delighted☆

At 4 PM, we boarded the ferry and returned to Ishigaki Port.

It was a whirlwind tour, but I don't think I could have covered this much on my own, so I'm glad I participated. Since it was my second time on Taketomi Island, it was within my tolerance, but I would like to explore it more leisurely on another day.

個人で行くプランも考えましたが、船やバスの乗り継ぎがどうしてもうまくあわず…。最終的にこちらのツアーを申し込みました。

当日は朝から雨が降ったり止んだりの悪天候でしたが、乗り物に乗ってひたすら移動のプランだったので、子連れでも快適に観光できて結果的に良かったです。ホテルまで送迎有りで、とても助かりました。

【西表島】
石垣港から西表島の大原港まで約１時間。フェリーは大きく、揺れも思ったより無くて安心して乗れました。トイレも付いています。
大原港にもトイレは有りますが、数が少なく混雑するのでフェリーの中で済ませておくことをオススメします。

大原港に着くと、そのままボートに乗りかえてマングローブクルーズへ。
下流から上流へむかい、また下流に戻ってきて約１時間。
見る景色全てが物珍しく、あっという間でした☆

【由布島】
ボートを降りた先には観光バスが待ち構えていて、即出発。
バスの運転手さんがガイドも兼ねていて、道中退屈しないようお話をしてくれます。
20分程で由布島水牛車乗り場に到着。
水牛車に乗って、由布島へ渡ります。
中々ない体験に、子どもは大喜び。

由布島に到着！
ここでやっとトイレに行くことができます。トイレが近いかたは要注意。
レストランで用意されていた昼食を取り、その後は自由時間です。
島では１時間半程時間がありますが、子連れだとけっこうあっという間です。
個人的にはチョウ園オススメ。アゲハチョウがあんなに飛んでいるところを初めてみました。
（もちろん幼虫もいるので、苦手な方は要注意）
島内ぶらぶらしていると、あっという間に集合時間です。
帰りももちろん牛車に乗って戻ります。
帰りの観光バスでは親も子も爆睡でした。
バスを降り、フェリーに乗って、竹富島を目指します。

【竹富島】
40分程で竹富島へ到着。
竹富島に着いてからは、プランにのって行程がわかれます。
我が家は『バス＋グラスボート』のプランだったため、バスに乗って島のあちこちに連れて行ってもらいました。

まず星砂で有名なカイジ浜へ。
ここでの自由時間、15分。
掌に砂をくっつけ、子どもと一緒に星砂を探しました。
結果、みごと２個発見☆子どもも大喜び。

次は集落へ。
ここでの自由時間も15分程。
正直、ゆっくり観光はできません。
雰囲気を味わう程度。
ソフトクリームくらいは食べれました。

バスで移動しながらコンドイビーチを眺め、グラスボート乗り場へ。
雨天のため、晴天時に比べると海の透明度はイマイチでしたが、船頭さんが魚が見えそうなスポットを探してくれて無事魚が泳ぐ姿を子どもに見せることができました。
サンゴ礁の中にカクレクマノミがいたり、子どもも喜んでいました☆

16時　フェリーに乗って、石垣港に寄港


駆け足で巡ったツアーでしたが、個人で行くとここまでは回れないと思うので、参加して良かったです。
竹富島は２度目だったのでまぁ許容範囲でしたが、また別日にゆっくりまわりたいなと思いました。

Our trip was wonderful...We are lucky that our tour guide Levin came from Philippines to be exact in Mabatang Bataan - kababayan! He was very accommodating, explain the history of Mt Fuji very well and of help us in taking pictures. Our food in the Ninja Village was awesome, lucky to book this tour with lunch. We are also fortunate that Mt Fuji that day had a very clear view and great weather as well. Overall experience was Outstanding! Ill definitely recommend this tour. Thanks Japan Panoramic Tour!!! Levin hope to see you again soon.

Lack of English translation. Hotel pick up is time-consuming.

This time, I used a bus tour to welcome a friend from outside the prefecture. My friend, who wanted to visit Lake Toya, enjoyed the scenery of Hokkaido along with the lingering cold of winter.

今回、道外から友人をお迎えするにあたりバスツアーを利用しました。
｢洞爺湖｣を希望してた友人は、終わりかけの冬の寒さと一緒に北海道の景色を楽しんでくれました。

The Valley of Gangala was very meaningful because the person explaining it was easy to understand. I have visited Okinawa several times, but this time at the Valley of Gangala was the most memorable sightseeing experience.

Seifa Utaki allowed me to feel the history of Okinawa.

ガンガラーの谷は、説明する人がわかりやすかったので、とても有意義な時間になりました。沖縄には何度か来ましたが、今回のガンガラーの谷は、一番印象に残る観光でした。
斎場御嶽(せーふぁうたき)は、沖縄の歴史を感じる事が出来ました。

When it comes to sightseeing in Okinawa, you definitely should visit the Churaumi Aquarium. Not only the aquarium, but the surrounding Tropical World was also great. If you're looking to buy souvenirs, the variety at the Okashi Goten is excellent. American Village didn't have much to see. The bus guide's commentary was good.

沖縄観光と言えば、やっぱり美ら海水族館は必ず行った方がいいですね。水族館だけでなく、周辺の熱帯ワールド等も良かったです。
お土産買うなら、種類豊富なお菓子御殿がいいですね。
アメリカンビレッジは、あまり見どころはなかったです。
バスガイドさんの案内は良かったです。

I was looking forward to the snowy Shirakawa-go, but it was disappointing that there was little snow due to the warm winter. However, I had a great trip thanks to the guide. The only downside was that the bus was a microbus, which felt a bit cramped.

雪の白川郷を期待していたのに暖冬で雪が少なく残念だけど、ガイドさんに恵まれて良い旅行でした。
ただバスがマイクロバスだったのが残念、多少窮屈でした。

The weather was a bit iffy, and it was cloudy all day, which was disappointing, but the tour guide's explanations were excellent, and the stories were interesting, making it a fun experience from start to finish. I was glad to participate because the guide provided thorough explanations of places I might have just passed by without understanding.

天気がビミョーで、終日曇ってたのが残念でしたが、添乗員さんの説明が上手く、話も面白く、終始楽しく参加させていただきました。添乗員さんがいないと素通りしてしまいそうな所を、しっかり説明していただけた為、参加して正解でした！

Since I was participating alone and there were no other participants at the same time, I was asked to change the time on the day of the tour. It was good that I had some extra time, but… these things can happen. The tour itself was enjoyable, but the waiting time was tough.

一人での参加で、同じ時刻の参加者がほかにいなかったため、当日に時間変更をお願いされました。時間に余裕があったからよかったけど…こういう事もあるんですね。ツアー自体は楽しかったけど、待ち時間が発生したのが辛かった。

Unfortunately, it rained, but while we were on the water buffalo cart, we didn't get particularly wet and enjoyed exploring Taketomi Island. The water buffalo cart ride lasted about 25 minutes, and since we took the 4 PM ferry back, we had about an hour left. We walked to Kondoi Beach, taking advantage of the lighter rain. It took us just under 20 minutes one way, and it would have been a nice walk if the weather had been better.

残念ながら、雨でしたが水牛車に乗ってる間は特に濡れる事もなく、竹富島散策を楽しめました。
水牛車は25分ほど、帰りは16時の船にしたので残り1時間ほど、小降りになった合間を縫いつつコンドイビーチまで歩きで行ってきました。歩いて片道20分弱、もっと気候が良ければいい散歩になった事でしょう。

I went directly to the meeting point at Ishigaki Port, but there was no VERTAR sign, so it was a bit difficult to find! Other than that, it was a satisfying tour! The guide's island song was wonderful, and Yuichi the water buffalo who took us to Yubu Island was great, as well as Shinn the water buffalo from Taketomi Island and Sugimoto-san's island song! Thank you to Yoshida from the glass-bottom boat for showing us the underwater sights for the entire time! Regarding the water buffalo cart photos, it would have been better if I could have switched places with someone in the front row on the opposite side since I was in the back! I bought a photo, but it was a bit small, which was disappointing! Overall, it was a fun trip!

直接石垣港の集合場所に行ったのですが、VERTARの印がなかったので、わかりづらかったです！
あとは満足のツアーでした！ガイドさんの島唄も素敵でしたし由布島へ渡る水牛のユウイチくんも竹富島の水牛のシンくんと杉本さんの島唄も素敵でした！
グラスボートの吉田さんも時間いっぱい水中を見せて下さりありがとうございました！水牛車の写真ですが後ろだったので反対側の前列の人と代わってもらえれば最と良かったと思います！買ったのですが小さかったのが残念でした！あとは楽しい旅でした！

I spent the whole day riding on a boat and a water buffalo cart. You can ride the water buffalo cart twice, once on Yufu Island and once on Taketomi Island, but I highly recommend it on Taketomi Island because you can tour the island while riding the water buffalo cart. If you want to explore Taketomi Island more, I think choosing cycling would be a good option.

船や水牛車に一日中乗っていました。水牛車は、由布島と竹富島で2回乗れますが竹富島では、島を水牛車に乗りながら巡れるので非常におすすめです。竹富島めぐりをもっとしたい方は、サイクリングを選ばれるといいと思います。

On the day I visited, there were only three customers, so we moved by taxi. The taxi driver acted as our guide, providing rich explanations about plants, history, and geology. In the morning, we were able to take a tour around the island, visiting places like Okawa Falls and the Western Forest Road. I think chartering a sightseeing taxi can be quite expensive, but I was able to explore the island at a very reasonable price. The guide was excellent, and I thought they could raise their prices a bit.

私が利用した日はお客さんが3人しか居らずタクシーで移動になりました。タクシーの運転手さんがガイドをして下さり、植物や歴史、地質のことまで説明して頂き知識量が豊富でした。午前中は島を一周して下さり、大川の滝や西部林道を見学することができました。観光タクシーをチャーターするとかなり金額がかかると思います。大分お得に島を周る事ができました。素晴らしいガイドなのでもうちょっと値上げしても良いのではないかなぁと思いました。

Although it was February, there was almost no snow, so we couldn't see that snowy landscape, but the lunch was delicious, and the hand-baked rice cracker experience was fun. The tour guide, the interpreter who was with us, and the driver all provided very pleasant service.

2月ながらも雪はほぼ無く、あの雪景色は見られませんでしたが、昼食も美味しく、手焼き煎餅体験も楽しかったです。
ツアコンの方、同乗されてた通訳の方、運転手さん、皆さん気持ちの良い接客でした。

The directions to the meeting place at Palette Kumoji were not very helpful! I heard that parking is not available, but I wish there had been a clear mention of the street in front of the prefectural office! I apologize for being late because I couldn't find the boarding location!

The Churaumi Aquarium was absolutely wonderful! However, since there isn't much time, I think it would be better to buy rice balls or sandwiches at a convenience store before boarding! We couldn't line up at the restaurant to avoid being late, so we skipped lunch! The paper play about the importance of life by the guide was moving! Thank you very much!

集合場所のパレットくもじの場所の説明が不親切でした！駐車できないとの事でしたが、せめて県庁前の通りとかの明記が欲しかったです！乗車場所がわからず遅れてしまった事すいませんでした！
美ら海水族館は、とても素晴らしかったです！ただ時間が無いので乗車前にコンビニで、おにぎりやサンドイッチを買って行った方がいいかと思いました！私達は遅れないようにとレストランに並ぶ事が出来ず、お昼抜きでした！ガイドさんの命の大切さの紙芝居は感動しました！ありがとうございました！

I participated in the Gangara Valley course. I initially expected just a simple sightseeing experience at a power spot, but I was able to learn about the unique and easily understandable history of the Gangara Valley and the roots of the Japanese people. It was an opportunity to reflect on the distant history of Japan.

ガンガーラの谷コースで参加しました。単なるパワースポットの観光を期待して参加しましたが、ユニークで分かり易く、腹に落ちる、日本人のルーツ、ガンガーラの谷の歴史を知ることが出来ました。遥か彼方の日本の歴史に思いはせる機会でした。

I participated in the AM course following the PM course from the previous day. The itinerary included being picked up at my hotel at 9 AM, then visiting the first destination, Senpiro Falls, followed by the intermediate spot, Gajumaru, then Okko Falls, the Seibu Forest Road, and finally, the last destination, Nagata Inaka Beach. I was overwhelmed by the distant view of Senpiro Falls, received a happy aura at the Gajumaru, which is said to be a power spot that brings happiness, and was awestruck by the sight of Okko Falls up close. On the Seibu Forest Road, a UNESCO World Heritage site, I encountered wild yakuzaru and yakushika! Finally, at Nagata Inaka Beach, known for being a nesting site for sea turtles, I reflected on the vast ocean before me on the truly powdery sand beach. After that, I was dropped off at the Miyanoura Port entrance bus stop, completing the entire itinerary. The driver was extremely kind and very knowledgeable, making the three-hour tour never boring! I highly recommend this course, so I encourage everyone to participate! I wholeheartedly recommend it.

前日のPMコースに引き続いてのAMコース参加でした。
内容としては、（自分の場合）9時にホテルに送迎に来て頂き、その後最初の目的地である千尋（せんぴろ）の滝→②中間ガジュマル→③大川（おおこ）の滝→④西部林道→最後の目的地である、永田いなか浜という行程になります。まず最初の目的地である千尋の滝の遠望光景に圧倒され、幸せを呼ぶとされるパワースポットの中間ガジュマルにて幸せのオーラを分けてもらい、大川の滝は間近まで近寄りその光景に圧倒されました。車で通行できる世界遺産である西部林道では勿論野生のヤクザルやヤクシカに遭遇してきました！最後の永田いなか浜、此方はウミガメの産卵地として名高い場所ですが、本当のパウダーサンドの砂浜で目の前に広がる大海原に思いを馳せてきた次第です。その後、宮之浦港入口バス停まで送迎して頂き全行程終了になります。今回の運転手の方は非常に親切且つ大変な物知りな方で3時間余りのツアーにおいて飽きる事はありませんでした！本当にお勧めのコースですので、皆さんも是非参加されるといいですよ！胸を張ってお勧め致します。

The weather was very nice, and the scenery was just like a painting. The female guide on the mangrove boat at Nakama River had a bright voice that was very easy to listen to. Also, the guide on the ox cart to Yufuin was interesting to talk to. I received help from various people here and there.

天気が非常に良く、まさに絵に描いた様な景色でした。
仲間川のマングローブ船の女性ガイドさんも声が明るくてとても聞き易かったです。また、由布島への牛車のガイドさんも話が面白かった。
あっちこっちで色んな人に、お世話になりました。

This course is an afternoon tour around Yakushima. In my case, after being picked up at the airport, we headed straight to Yakusugi Land by jumbo taxi. The first destination, Yakusugi Land, is a nature-rich area of Yakushima. Once you enter the mountains, you have a high chance of encountering Yakuzaru (Japanese macaques)! You can witness scenes unique to Yakushima, such as them grooming each other. At Yakusugi Land, you can fully enjoy the rich nature of Yakushima for an entrance fee of 500 yen per person. The driver was very knowledgeable, almost like a tour conductor. The second destination is "Kigen Sugi." This Yakusugi is said to be one of the largest Yakusugi trees that you can get close to by car! After that, there is a transfer back to your accommodation, making this a very cost-effective course. I highly recommend it!

こちらのコースは午後の屋久島周遊コースになります。コース的には、（自分の場合は）空港でピックアップしてもらった後、ジャンボタクシーにて一路ヤクスギランドに向けて車を走らせます。最初の目的地であるヤクスギランドですが、そこは自然豊かな屋久島。山に入ればヤクザルと高い確率で遭遇出来ます！グルーミングしてたりと屋久島ならではの光景に出くわすことが出来ます。ヤクスギランドでは入園料として１人500円払って自然豊かな屋久島をおもいっきり堪能できます。運転手さんも大変物知りな方でさながらツアーコンダクターも兼ねている感じでしたよ。二番目の目的地は「紀元杉」です。この屋久杉は車にて近寄る事ができる屋久杉の中では最大級の大きさを誇る屋久杉との事でした！その後は、車にて宿泊先までの送迎有りと大変コスパの良いコースだと思います。お勧めですよ！！

I signed up at the last minute the day before, but I had a great time. The bus guide seemed a bit inexperienced, but their effort really came through.

前日に駆け込みで申し込んだのですが、とても楽しかったです。
バスガイドさんがまだ慣れていない様子でしたが、頑張ってる様子がとても伝わりました。

It might be due to the influence of the Spring Festival, but the tourist spots were filled with foreigners. There was only one Japanese person on the bus. That said, there were no particular issues. Although it was cloudy, the view was still good! The scenery is definitely different between visiting in summer and when there is snow. Personally, I prefer the snowy landscape. As for the food, don't get your hopes up. It was just average. The chicken in the hot pot looked thick and delicious, but I didn't eat it because it wasn't cooked all the way through, and I was worried about food poisoning. What a shame.

春節の影響か、観光地は外国人だらけ。
バスも１人だけ日本人でした。だからと言って、特に問題はなかったです。
雲っていたけれど、遠くまでみえて良かった！
夏に行くのと、雪のある時に行くのとでは景色がやっぱり違う。個人的には雪景色が好き。
ごはんは、期待してはダメ。普通くらい。
鍋の鶏肉は分厚く美味しそうだったが、中まで火が入っていなかったため、食中毒が怖く食べなかった。残念。

I'm glad I was able to experience the nature of southern Okinawa. The exit of the Gangala Valley is located within Okinawa World, where the Gyokusendo Cave is. Since I went all the way there, I thought it would have been even better if there was a tour that included all three attractions, even if it meant a slightly higher price.

沖縄南部の自然に触れることができて良かったです。
ガンガラー谷の出口は、玉泉堂のある沖縄ワールド内にあるので、せっかくここまで行くのだからもう少し料金が高くなっても、3つともまわれるツアーだともっと良かったのに、とおもいました。

I wanted to go to various places, but since I couldn't drive, I decided to sign up for this tour. The time spent at each location was short, and the schedule was quite packed, but it was really great to be able to cover a wide area efficiently. The bus guide was cheerful and kind, and she taught us a lot about delicious foods in Okinawa, which was really helpful when choosing souvenirs. If I had to wish for something, I was a bit disappointed that the time spent on Kouri Island, which has beautiful sea and scenery, was very limited, but the cost performance is good.

色々行きたいけれど運転できないので、こちらを申し込んでみました。
一箇所の滞在時間は短く、なかなかハードなスケジュールでしたが、効率良く広範囲をまわれたのがホントに良かったです。バスガイドさんも陽気で親切で、沖縄の美味しい物をたくさん教えてくれたので、お土産選びの時に良い参考になりました。
欲をいえば、海と景色がとても綺麗な古宇利島の滞在時間がとても少なかったのが残念ですが、コスパはいいです。

I was unsure whether to visit four islands or three, but since it was my first time, I decided not to be too greedy and participated in this one.

As a result, it was very good! Unfortunately, the mangrove cruise was affected by heavy rain, but the guide's stories were interesting, so it was still enjoyable.

The water buffalo cart was very cute, and you can take photos and videos, so I definitely recommend it. The buffalo have their own personalities, which is amusing. Although I couldn't explore the Yufu Island botanical garden slowly due to the rain, I was able to see flowers and plants that are unimaginable in February.

Taketomi Island was clear and very fulfilling. I cycled around the island using a rental bike, and since you can freely see various sights, I recommend renting a bike over the water buffalo cart for Taketomi Island. (You can ride the water buffalo cart on Yufu Island!) Taketomi Island is more rustic and has beautiful seas compared to Ishigaki Island, so for first-timers, I recommend the island-hopping tour, and if you find an island you like, you can explore it on your own.

４島が３島かで迷いましたが
初めてだったのであまり欲張らずこちらに参加しました。

結果、とても良かったです！
残念ながらマングローブクルーズは大雨だったのですが
ガイドさんの話が面白かったので良かったです。

水牛車はとても可愛く、写真や動画を撮れたりするので
是非、おすすめです。牛にも個性があって面白いです。
由布島の植物園も雨でゆっくりは周れませんでしたが
２月では考えられない花や草木を見ることが出来ました。

竹富島は快晴でとても充実していました。
レンタサイクルで島内を一周しましたが、自由に色々見れるので
私は竹富島は水牛車よりもレンタサイクルをお勧めします。
（水牛車は由布島で乗れるし！）
石垣島より素朴で海が綺麗なので初めての方は
離島ツアーおすすめし、気に入った離島があれば自分で回るようにしたら良いです。

It was a packed tour from morning to night, but I felt it was a bit rushed since we only had a quick look at places other than the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which were all quite far away. However, even in the short time we had, the guide explained various things, making it easy to understand and enjoyable.

朝から晩まで盛りだくさんのツアーでしたが、遠いとこばかりで美ら海水族館以外は駆け足でさらっと見るだけだったのがちょっと慌ただしかったと感じました。でも短い間でもガイドさんがいろいろ説明してくれたのでわかりやすかったし、楽しかったです。

It felt like a condensed experience of the tourist spots in Ishigaki Island, but it wasn't rushed at all. The guide was entertaining, and the lunch was satisfying, so it was efficient and enjoyable.

石垣島の観光スポットを短時間にギューっと濃縮した感じでしたが、そんなにセカセカしてませんし、ガイドさんも面白かったし、ランチも充実してましたので、効率的で良かったです。

I chose the water buffalo cart course. After selecting the plan, I was a bit anxious because I had to make the payment within two days, and since all communication was done via email, I wasn't used to it. However, I received prompt replies to my inquiries via email, and everything went smoothly on the day of the event. The round-trip boat fare was included, and since the payment for the tickets and the boat schedule were all arranged in advance, there was no hassle, and I could just enjoy the experience. It was a great deal!

水牛車コースを選択しました。
プランを選択後、入金が2日以内だったので焦った事と全てメールでのやり取りだったので慣れておらず少し不安でしたがメールでの問い合わせにも即返信があり問題なく当日を迎えれました。往復船代金も込みなのと、当日チケットの支払いや行きの船の時間を調べて決めてなど手続きが事前に済んでいるので煩わしさもなくただ楽しむだけで利用できました^^お得です！

I participated in this tour to adjust my time before my afternoon flight. It was a half-day tour, but we visited the sightseeing spots in Ishigaki Island compactly and were dropped off at the airport. I was able to use my time very efficiently. The lunch was also quite tasty.

午後のフライトまでの時間調整で参加しました。半日ツアーでしたが、石垣島の観光スポットをコンパクトにまわって、空港で降ろしてもらいました。とても時間を効率良く使えました。昼食もまずまず美味しかったです。

I was glad that I could efficiently visit the places I wanted to go, namely the Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley. However, I was a bit disappointed that Sefa Utaki was a self-guided tour, as I thought there would be a guide. The guided tour of Gangala Valley was very easy to understand and interesting.

行きたいと思っていた斎場御嶽とガンガラーの谷を効率よく観光できたので良かったです。ただ斎場御嶽もガイドがあるのかと思っていましたが、自由観光だったので残念でした。ガンガラーの谷のガイドツアーはとても分かりやすく、面白かったです。

It was great to have a clear guide that allowed us to do a lot of sightseeing in one day. I thought it would have been nice to stay a bit longer at the Churaumi Aquarium.

わかりやすいガイドで1日たくさん観光ができて良かったです。
美ら海水族館にはもう少し長く滞在できればよいと思いました。
