All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

This time, I participated with my son.

Since I had work on weekends and my son had club activities during the weekdays in summer, we couldn't go anywhere, so we decided to visit during the autumn test break. It was a mother-son trip during a time when he is entering adolescence, but the result was truly worth it. My son kept repeating how much fun he had diving on the return flight, and he continued to say it for a while after we got home.

This was because the tour we joined was excellent!

From the moment they picked us up, they were very kind and shared various recommendations for delicious places near the hotel. Once we set sail, they thoroughly explained the diving precautions and underwater signals. When we dove, the instructor who was in charge was a super handsome Australian who spoke fluent Japanese!

Even after diving, they patiently followed up with me when I panicked and forgot the signals, staying by my side the whole time.

During the second snorkeling session, they diligently searched for sea turtles and successfully found one for us! It was so moving!

Even during the car ride back, they shared stories about their work in various regions, which seemed to be a great opportunity for my son to think about his future. I definitely want to participate again next time.

I highly recommend it! Thank you very much! 😊

今回は息子と2人で参加しました。

土日に私が仕事で、夏休みも平日は部活があり休みが合わず、どこも出かけられなかったので秋のテスト休みに伺いました。
思春期にさしかかる時期での母子旅行でしたが。。結果は本当に行って良かったです。
息子は帰りの飛行機でもダイビングは楽しかった、楽しかったと何度も繰り返し、家に帰ってからもしばらくは言い続けていました。

というのも、こちらのツアーがとても良かったからです！

まずお迎えに来てくださった時から親切で、ホテルの近くの美味しいお店など色々教えてくださいました。
実際に出航して、ダイビングの注意事項や水中でのサインをしっかり教えて貰えます。潜る時には担当のインストラクターさんが交代されましたが、日本語がペラペラの超イケメンのオーストラリア人の方でした！

潜ったあとも、サインを忘れてパニックな私を丁寧にフォローしてくださり、ずっとついてて下さいました。

２回目に入水したシュノーケリングでは、ウミガメを一生懸命探して下さり、見事に見つけてもらえました！！感動です～！！

帰りの車中でも、各地域でのお仕事の話を聞かせてくれて、息子にとって将来を考えるとても良いきっかけになったようです。
次回またぜひ参加したいと思いました。

とってもオススメです！
ありがとうございました(^-^)

I think I was able to push through to the end because I participated in the tour for my first trekking experience. The guide was very humorous and shared various stories and explanations throughout the journey. The pace was a bit fast, but I understood that it was necessary to complete it in 10 hours, so for those who want to challenge themselves at their own pace, I think having a personal guide would be better. Since they consider the needs of each individual, I recommend getting a guide for anyone who feels even a little anxious.

初めてのトレッキングで、ツアーに参加したからこそ最後まで頑張れたと思います。
ガイドの方もとてもユーモアのある方で、終始説明を始め様々なお話をしてくれました。
ペースは早めですが、あれで10時間なのでしかたないとわかり、自分のペースで挑戦したい方は個人ガイドの方が良いと思います。
一人一人に合った対応を考えてくれるので少しでも不安な方はガイドをつけることをお勧めします。

The shuttle bus to the hotel was great! Since it was an unfamiliar place, I was really happy with that service. It was my first time diving, but I was able to enjoy it safely! The staff were friendly and easy to talk to, which made it easy to ask questions and dive with peace of mind. The scenery was beautiful, and the transportation to the dive points was excellent. I highly recommend this shop if you visit Okinawa; you can have a great time even with introductory diving. Next time I go to Okinawa, I plan to visit again and get my diving license!

ホテルまでの送迎バスがgood！見知らぬ土地なので、それだけでもスゴく嬉しいサービスでした。
人生初のダイビングでしたが、安全に楽しめました！フランクで話しやすいスタッフの方々でしたので、疑問や質問もしやすく安心して潜ることができました。
景色もとても綺麗でポイントまでの移動も最高です。沖縄に行った際は是非このショップはおススメです、体験ダイビングでも十分に楽しめます。
今度沖縄に行った際はまたお邪魔させていただき、今度はライセンスを取ろうと思います！

At first, I was nervous, but I really had a great time!
Our guide, Taiyo Yokota, was amazing!
He knew so much and was such a bright and energetic person; I had a lot of fun.
When I go trekking again, I definitely want to request him!
The miso soup he made for us during lunch was really delicious.
Thank you so much!

I think those who are going soon can go with peace of mind.
Besides the bento, I think it's good to bring snacks like chocolate, but having something you can eat while walking, like in your pocket, is convenient.
Eating during breaks is nice too; while Calorie Mate is good, eating your favorite snacks makes walking more enjoyable and energizing!
For those who are going soon, please have fun!

最初は緊張していたけど、ほんっとに楽しく行ってこれました！
ガイドの横田大洋さん、サイコーでした！
いろいろ知ってるし、明るく元気な方で、すごく楽しませていただきました。
またトレッキングに行くときは、ぜひ指名させていただきたいです！
お昼休憩でいれてくれたお味噌汁、本当においしかったです。
本当にありがとうございました！

これから行かれる方も、安心して行けると思います。
お弁当以外に、チョコなど持っていかれると思いますが、ポケットに入れて歩きながら食べられるものは便利でしたよ。
休憩で食べるのも、カロリーメイトもいいけど好きなお菓子を食べる方が楽しく元気に歩けますよ！
これから行かれる方も、どうぞ楽しんでください！

On the day of the tour, perhaps due to the typhoon, it was windy and cloudy. Since I arrived early, I was able to join the regular mangrove tour. The guide was a refreshing person, and I had a great time.

当日は台風の影響なのか風が強くしかも曇り…早目に着いたので通常のマングローブツアーに参加させていただきました。
ガイドさんは爽やかな方で楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました。

The sea was crystal clear, and I was satisfied even with just snorkeling! The staff were very accommodating, and I felt glad to have come to Okinawa! I was able to swim with turtles, and when I fed the fish, many of them came around. I want to go again. It's a tour that I can easily join when I come to Naha, so I want to go with my friends again. Even in October, the sea was warm with a temperature of 27 degrees, so this time of year is also great! I was glad that I didn't get seasick. There were also many photos with turtles in them.

海が透け透けで、シュノーケルでも満足でした！スタッフさんの対応も良く、沖縄に来て良かったと思いました！
亀と一緒に泳げたり、お魚に餌をやるとたくさん来たり、また行きたいです。
那覇に来た時もすぐ来れるツアーなのでまた友達と行きたいと思います。
１０月でも海が暖かく気温が27度ありましたのでこの時期も最高ですよ！
船酔いもせずにいけたので良かったです。
写真もたくさん亀が写ってました。

I had never experienced trekking in my life, so I was anxious from the preparation stage. However, I researched various sites and made sure to prepare thoroughly, so I was able to take on the challenge without any issues.

It was great that I brought plenty of snacks (Calorie Mate, kaki-pi ← good salt content, Snickers, cereal bars, candy).

After actually experiencing it, I was confident in my physical strength, but yes, I underestimated it. I went to bed before 8 PM the night before, and I was in perfect condition both mentally and physically, but I was much more exhausted than I had imagined.

However! The emotions I felt were incredibly profound! I was healed by the trees and nature along the way, and fortunately, I was able to see some animals, which left me in awe the entire time!

I live surrounded by a lot of information every day, but having this experience in a place where there was no signal allowed me to spend time reflecting on myself, which was really great. I felt once again that I should create more opportunities to connect with nature.

人生で1度もトレッキングを経験したことがなかったので、準備の段階から不安でした。
ですが、持ち物は色々なサイトなどで調べ、しっかり準備を整え不備なく挑めました。

おやつも多めに持って行ったのはよかったです(カロリーメイト、柿ピー←塩分◎ スニッカーズ、シリアルバー、飴)

実際体験して、まず体力には自信があったのですが、はい、ナメていました。。
前日も20時前には就寝し、心も体も万全の状態で挑んだのですが、想像していた以上にすごく疲れました。


が！その分の感動は計り知れないくらい大きかったです！道中の木々や自然には癒され、幸い動物達にも会うことが出来、終始感動しっぱなしでした！

日々沢山の情報に囲まれて生きていますが、電波の届かない所でこういった経験をし、自分と向き合う時間がつくれて、すごく良かったです。
こういう自然と触れ合う時間を作るべきだなと改めて感じました。

One of us was diving for the first time in our lives, while the other had a license but hadn't dived in over ten years and had mostly forgotten everything... The instructors provided us with thorough guidance, and once we actually dove, all our anxieties disappeared.

Perhaps due to the aftermath of the typhoon, the visibility wasn't great, but it was still beautiful. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn't see any sea turtles, but if given the chance, I would love to experience the Kerama Blue at a different time of year.

Overall, it was a very reassuring diving experience.

片方は人生初のダイビング、もう片方はライセンス持ちですが10年以上潜っていないのでほとんど忘れている…そんな私たちに丁寧にレクチャーしてくださり、実際に潜ってからはそれまでの不安が吹っ飛びました。
台風が過ぎ去った後の影響なのか、透明度は今ひとつに感じましたが、それでもきれいでした。
ウミガメを見ることが出来なかったのが少し残念でしたが、機会があれば、違う時期の慶良間ブルーも体験したいと思っています。
すべてにおいて安心できるダイビングでした。

It's been five years since I last visited Okinawa. My purpose this time was to see the sunset over the blue sea and go snorkeling. Unlike my previous trip, I participated in a tour to the Kerama Islands. The first snorkeling spot was amazing, just as expected from Kerama! I even got to see sea turtles, which was fantastic. This year, due to the many typhoons, the water temperature was a bit low, but it was no problem at all with a wetsuit. The second spot was disappointing as there were fewer coral reefs. On that day, the wind and waves were high, and the return trip was quite bumpy, making it tough for the women on board. Even those who usually don't get seasick might need some motion sickness medication. The sea of Kerama truly is the best!

5年ぶりの沖縄。
目的は夕陽の青い海、シュノーケリングです。
今回は前回と違い慶良間諸島に出かけるこのツアーに参加しました。
最初のポイントはさすが慶良間！海ガメにも会えて最高でした。今年は台風が多かったせいか水温が低めとの事でしたがウエットスーツがあればまったく問題なしでした。
2箇所目のポイントは珊瑚礁が少なく残念でした。
この日は風、波が高く帰りの移動はかなり揺れて女性の方はかなりつらそうで可哀想でした。
普段大丈夫の人でも酔い止め薬は必要かも。
やはり慶良間の海は最高でした！

I took a late summer vacation in October and decided to try diving! A shuttle bus arrived at the hotel around 7:30 AM, and they kindly stored my suitcase in a corner of the shop.

I quickly changed into my wetsuit on the boat and enjoyed a luxurious boat trip while gazing at the sea on the second floor... or so I thought, but perhaps due to the influence of a distant typhoon, there were big waves and a lot of rocking! It was quite thrilling for someone like me who isn't fond of roller coasters.

I thought we would visit three spots, but this time it was only two. The first stop was a shallow coral reef for snorkeling, and the vibrant underwater world was breathtaking! I was moved by the colorful fish and fascinating marine life. It was a dreamlike view that I could gaze at forever.

Since we were scheduled for two dives, we did two dives at the second location. While I felt a bit uncomfortable with breathing through my mouth, I thoroughly enjoyed the underwater world and even spotted a sea turtle from a distance! During the second dive, we encountered a large shark! My friend and I were excited, but according to the instructor, it was a small shark, which made us laugh.

Looking up at the boat from the seabed and seeing the sparkling surface of the sea were all first-time experiences for me.

I was very satisfied with the ocean, but there were a few things that concerned me. One was during lunch; participants received bento boxes, but the instructors ate instant noodles and playfully splashed leftover soup into the sea. I was laughing, but it was hard to find it funny while watching.

Additionally, valuables can be stored before boarding, but when it was time to retrieve them, the valuables box was left open on the table!? The cashier was calling out, "Payments here!" while my wallet was still... After waiting for a while, I ended up retrieving it myself. The security didn't seem very reliable, so it might be better to take only the essentials.

If that had been the end of it, I wouldn't have minded so much, but there was a problem with the payment, and I had to transfer money later. Since the amount was significant, I confirmed multiple times on the day, and I received assurance that everything was checked at the register, yet the company seemed quite unprofessional. The phone response was also lackluster, even though it was their mistake.

While the ocean was wonderful, I got the impression that the company is still immature and poorly managed. It's very disappointing, especially since it was a special trip.

10月に遅めの夏休みを取得し、折角ならとダイビングに挑戦！
朝は7:30頃にホテルに送迎バスが来てくださり、スーツケースは店舗の隅で預かってもらえました。
船で早速ウェットスーツに着替え2Fのフロアで海を眺めながら優雅な船旅…かと思いきや、遠いとはいえ台風の影響か？大波大揺れ！ジェットコースター苦手な私にはとてもスリリングでした。

3ヵ所まわるのかと思ってましたが、今回は2ヵ所。
1ヵ所目は珊瑚礁の浅瀬でシュノーケル、覗いた海中の鮮やかなこと！ニモや不思議な動植物に感動しました。
いつまでーもぼーっと眺めていられる、夢のような景色です。
2ダイブの予定だったので2ヵ所目で2回のダイビング、口呼吸の違和感を覚えつつ海の世界を堪能、遠目ではありますが海ガメ会えました！
2回目は何と大きなサメが！友人と騒いでましたが、インストラクターさんによると、小さいサメだったようで笑
海底から見上げる船底、キラキラ光る海面、どれも初めて目にするものでした。

海に関しては大満足、ただ気になったことも。
１つはランチ時、参加者はお弁当を頂きましたが、インストラクターの方々はカップ麺を食べ悪ふざけなのか仲間に残ったスープをぶっかけそのまま海へザバーッ
それ、いいの！？笑ってましたが見てるこちらは笑えませんでした。
また、貴重品は乗船前に預かってもらえますが、受け渡し時貴重品Boxを机の上にオープン状態で放置！？レジ担当者は『お会計はこちらでーす』なんて呼んでいるし、でも財布はまだ
…しばらく待ちましたが結局自分で回収しました。あまりセキュリティは期待できないので最低限だけを持っていく方がいいかもしれません。
ここで終わればまだそんなに気にならなかったのですが、会計に関しトラブルがあり、後日お金を振込む事になりました。
金額が大きいので当日何度もこちらから確認し、レジもチェック済みで間違いないという回答があったのに会社としてあまりにもお粗末、電話対応は店側のミスにも関わらず面倒くさそうな対応でもやっとしました。

海は素晴らしかったものの、会社的にはまだまだ未熟で管理がなってない印象を受けました。
折角の旅行だったのにとても残念です。

I participated with a friend.
It was my first time snorkeling in Kerama, so I joined this tour!
Even from the boat, I could see how beautiful the sea was, and when I actually dove in, there were so many fish!
However, on the day we participated, there were some waves, which seemed to make it a bit challenging for beginners.
There were many participants, and it felt like one staff member was responsible for about eight people, making it difficult to guide beginners as we mostly stayed close to the boat, which was a bit disappointing.
Due to the waves, the boat was also swaying, and some people felt seasick, so I think it's better to take motion sickness medication before participating!
The boat had a second floor, and I enjoyed the view from up there.

友達と2人で参加しました。
慶良間でシュノーケリングは初めてだったのでこちらのらツアーに参加しました！
船の上からでも海のキレイさがわかるほどで実際に中に潜ってみると魚がたくさんいました！
ただ参加した日は波が少しあり、初心者の方は少し大変そうでした。
参加者も多く、ひとりのスタッフにつき8人ぐらいを見る感じでしたが初心者の方を引き連れて移動するのは難しく船の近場をうろうろする程度だったので少し残念でした。
波があった分、船の揺れもあり酔われている方もいたので参加する際は酔い止めの薬を飲んでいるほうがいいように思います！
船は二階にも上がれ私は景色を見て楽しめました。

I was glad that the boat had a toilet, shower room, and changing room. It was also helpful that there was cold water and warm tea available. Since it was a larger boat, I didn't have to worry about seasickness.

There were more fish near Manza Cape, but the sea had outstanding clarity. It was a shame that snorkeling was only allowed from a distance since free diving was prohibited.

Although I didn't get to see any sea turtles while diving, I was able to see clownfish.

船にトイレ・シャワールーム・更衣室が付いててよかったです。冷たい水、温かいお茶が付いていたのも助かりました。大きめな船なので船酔いも心配なかったです。

魚の量は真栄田岬の方がいました、、、、しかし海は抜群の透明度でした。素潜りが禁止されていたため、シュノーケルの時は遠目でしか魚を見れなかったのが残念でした。

ダイビングではウミガメには会えなかったものの、クマノミに会うことができました。

I participated alone as a woman. I had never experienced mountain climbing before, but I was confident in my physical strength, so it was not a problem! The guide regularly checked everyone's condition and adjusted the pace for the whole group, which was reassuring. During the lunch break, the guide served us miso soup... it was delicious! Thank you for the treat!

女子ひとりでの参加でした。一度も山登りを経験したことはないですが体力には自信があったため問題なかったです！
ガイドさんは、グループのみんなの状況を随時チェックして、全員のペースを合わせるなどして安心でした。
お昼休憩、ガイドさんからお味噌汁をいただき……美味しかったです！ご馳走さまでした！

I participated with my mother!
It was tough to wake up early in the morning, but it was worth it!
There were six of us: the two of us, a group of three women, and our guide. The guide explained the attractions at various points, adjusted the pace for us, and took photos, which made us very satisfied.
I will never forget the view when the sun came out while we were climbing the mountain, with the morning sunlight streaming in.
One thing I was unhappy about was when the tour company called the day before and complained that we hadn’t called them, and even though I rented a flashlight because they said it was necessary, we didn’t use it at all, and the guide didn’t mention needing it either.

母と二人で参加しました！
早朝で起きるのが大変でしたが、それだけの価値がありました！
私たち二人と、女性3人組、ガイドさんの6人でしたが、ガイドさんが所々で魅力を説明して下さり、ペースも合わせながら登り、写真も撮って頂いてとても満足でした。
山を登っている途中に太陽が出てきて、朝日が差し込んでいる景色は忘れられません。
1つ、前日にツアー会社から電話をもらった際に、こちらから電話をしなかったことを文句言われたことと、懐中電灯が要ると電話で言われ追加でレンタルしたのに全く使用せず、ガイドさんも必要と言っていなかった点が不満でした。

We've snorkeled before, but nothing way out into the ocean where you can see so much stuff! Okinawa was amazing! snorkeling off the Kerama Islands was amazing - there were sooooo many fish, and so many different kinds of fish!

Loved the half day experience because we didn't have too much time, and I worried my son and I would be quite tired on an all day trip.

Positives - the boat ride there was pretty nice. Heading back was a bit fast and I was a bit more sea sick, even after taking Dramamine (first time using the Natural Dramamine though).

Liked the fact that they take photos for us. (using a hero6 black, so nice camera)

We saw lots of lots of fish. I saw all kinds and even saw Nemo. :)

Negatives - There were a number of people on our tour so you have to get ready a bit faster... I felt a bit rushed trying to get my wetsuit on, and having to help my son put on two.. actually, their wetsuits were not the newest and maybe too thin so my son had to put on two.

Having to follow your tour guide snorkeling, he was quite quick so I ended up getting a bit tired fast. If we had a smaller group, or maybe if I wasn't with my son, it'd be a bit easier.

There was another mom with a younger 5 year old, and the guide actually pulled them using a boogie board so that is an option if you are going with younger children.

You have to shower on the boat so it's not really a shower where you can wash yourself with soap, etc.

Would I go again? Of course! It was amazing! But now I know what to expect . Seasir was an efficient company. Our guide spoke English and communication wasn't a problem.

Look forward to trying snorkeling again in other places soon!

Despite the typhoon, the sea was incredibly beautiful, and I was moved! I visited three spots and was thrilled to meet the sea turtles I had been looking forward to! The instructor caught sea cucumbers and starfish for us to touch, which was an experience you can't have on other tours! There were so many fish in the water, and I was completely absorbed in swimming! Since it was October, the water temperature was a bit low, but I had a great time seeing the beautiful sea and lots of fish! I definitely want to join this tour again!

台風後なのに、海がとても綺麗で感動しました！
3スポット回って、楽しみにしていた海ガメにも会えて最高でした！
インスタラクターの方が、ナマコやヒトデを取ってくれて実際に触ったりと他のツアーでは体験できないこともできました！
海の中もたくさんの魚がいて、夢中になって泳いでました！10月という事で、水温は少し低かったですが、綺麗な海とたくさんの魚を見れてとても楽しかったです！
またこのツアーに参加したいと思います！

The waters in Okinawa are so clear that you can see the fish, and they were even more beautiful than what I saw on social media. The water temperature was not as high as I expected, and wearing a wetsuit made it very easy to move around. The instructor was attentive from start to finish, so I felt completely safe. They also took a lot of photos with a GoPro, which made for wonderful memories.

The instructor caught sea cucumbers and starfish for us to touch and hold! They were also very quick to find sea turtles, and I was able to see them up close for the first time and take many pictures! I was really happy about that.

I think it would be even better to have your own camera or GoPro! Also, since there was still plenty of sunlight, I recommend bringing sunscreen if you don't want to get sunburned!

沖縄の海は魚が見えるくらい透き通っていて、SNSで見るよりもすごくすごく綺麗でした。思ったよりも水温は高くなくて、ウエアを着るととても動きやすかったです。インストラクターの方が最初から最後まで気にかけてくださるので、全く怖くありませんでした。また、ゴープロで写真もたくさん撮ってくださって、すごく思い出に残るものとなりました。
インストラクターの方が、ナマコやヒトデを捕まえてきてくださって、実際に触ったり持ったりすることもできました！また、ウミガメを見つけるのもすごく早くて、初めて身近に見ることができ、たくさん写真を撮ることもできました！すごく嬉しかったです。
自分用のカメラやゴープロがあるとなお良いと思います！また、まだまだ太陽の光はあったので焼けたくない方は日焼け止めを持ってきておいたほうが良いと思います！

At first, I thought I would just be shown to my seat and left to look around, but then the guide started. The way they spoke and guided us was very pleasant, and the hour flew by. I had originally booked for the first day, but changed it to the next day due to the weather forecast. On the day I changed, they kindly contacted me to say that the weather might not be very good. They asked how I wanted to proceed, which really touched my heart. The explanations were timely, and I was drawn into the world of stars. I feel like I'm going to love stargazing even more from now on. I happened to be there on a full moon, and I was able to see the entire moon clearly through the telescope, which was very moving. If I have the chance again, I will definitely participate. The pointer is amazing!

始め、席に案内され、勝手に見るだけなのかな？と思ったら、ガイドが始まりました
お話の仕方や進め方がとても心地よく、あっという間の1時間でした。
当初初日に予約してましたが、天気予報から翌日へ変更。
変更した当日はわざわざご連絡いただき、もしかしたらあまり天気に恵まれないかも？どうしますか？との心遣いに心うたれました笑
タイムリーに説明を受け、引き込まれるように星の世界へ。
今後、星空がますます好きになりそうです。
たまたま満月にあたり、望遠鏡で月の全体をハッキリ見せていただき、とても感動しました。
また機会があったら必ず参加させていただきます。
ポインターは凄いですよ

This time, we participated as a couple!
First, the shuttle service to the hotel! From there, we moved to the shop, changed into wetsuits inside, and headed to the port without wasting any time—it was very smooth!
The waves were strong, and the boat rocked a lot on the way to the dive site, but since I took motion sickness medication beforehand, I was able to enjoy the scenery without getting seasick, which was great.

And then, diving!!
Both of us were worried about whether we could dive properly since it was our first time, but we had one instructor for every two people, who closely monitored us underwater, which made us feel very reassured!
The underwater visibility was excellent, and we were able to see the coral reefs and fish perfectly, allowing us to truly enjoy the experience.
Even after the diving was over, we had the freedom to snorkel or jump into the water from the boat, making the most of our time!

The diving time flew by, so I want to try a full day of diving next time or even get a license!
The ferry ride also had restrooms, and they provided drinks, so we were comfortable throughout the journey!
Even beginners can dive with confidence, and the staff were friendly, so I would love to participate again!

今回は夫婦で参加しました！！
まずは、ホテルまでの送迎！そこからお店に移動し、店内でウェットスーツに着替えて港へと時間に無駄もなくとてもスムーズでした！
ポイントまでは、波が強く船が大きく揺れましたが、事前に酔い止め薬を飲んでいたので、船酔いをすることなく景色を楽しみながら向かうことが出来たのも良かったです。

いざダイビング！！
2人とも初めてでちゃんと潜れるかとても心配でしたが、2人に1人のインストラクターの方がついてくださって、水中でも私たちの様子をしっかり伺いながら潜ってくださったのでとても心強かったかったです！
水中も透明度もよく、サンゴ礁や魚もバッチリと見ることが出来て心から楽しむことが出来ました。
ダイビングが終ってらも、自由にシュノーケリングをしたり、船から水面へシャンプしたりと時間を余すことなく楽しめました。

潜る時間があっという間に過ぎてしまったので、次は1日ダイビングやライセンスも取得したいと思いました！
移動中のフェリーもお手洗いもあり、飲み物の用意もしてくださっていたので快適に過ごせました！
初心者でも安心して潜れるし、スタッフの方も良心的でまた参加したいと思いました！

Everyone was excited for their first snorkeling experience. I had a 6-year-old and a 4-year-old, and both of them had a great time and said they wanted to do it again! The staff was kind, and the kids felt safe. I would love to book again when we go snorkeling!

全員が始めてのシュノーケリングでドキドキでした。6歳と4歳の子供がいたんですが、2人とも楽しくで、またやりたいと言ってました‼︎
お姉さんも優しく、子供達も安心してました。
また、やる時もお願いしたいです‼︎

Unfortunately, the originally scheduled tour date was canceled due to cloudy weather. Since stargazing was a major goal of my trip to Ishigaki Island, I rescheduled for the next day and participated in the tour. The daytime weather was decent, so I was hopeful that the view would be nice! However, by the start time, there was a thick cloud cover, and I could barely see Mars peeking through the clouds (laughs).

It was disappointing, but since the moon was close to being full, I was able to enjoy moon gazing with the telescope that was provided, and I could see the craters! Although I couldn't see the stars I was aiming for, I was satisfied with the moonlight bath and the enjoyable stories about the night sky.

I would definitely like to try again, and I rated the experience a bit lower, but I’m glad I participated in the tour this time. Next time I join, I plan to research the phases of the moon thoroughly so I can go and enjoy a perfect starry sky. Thank you!

もともと予定していた参加日があいにくの曇り空だったためツアーが中止となりました。石垣島旅行は星空鑑賞が大きな目的だったので次の日に日付変更し、ツアー参加させていただきました。日中の天気はまずまずだったので綺麗に見えるかも！と期待しながら参加！…したものの開始時間になると分厚い曇り空で、雲の合間から火星がなんとか見えるくらいでした(笑)
残念でしたが月が満月に近かったこともあり、用意していただいていた望遠鏡で月鑑賞をし、クレーターまで見ることができました！
お目当ての星空は見れませんでしたが月光浴と、楽しい星空のお話を聞くことができ、満足です！
ぜひリベンジしたいと思い、評価は低めとさせていただきましたが今回ツアーに参加できてよかったです。次回参加する際は、月の満ち欠けなどよくよく調べてから満点の星空を眺めに行きたいと思っています。ありがとうございました。

Snorkeling in the Kerama Islands for the first time was amazing. The moment I put my face in the water, I was astonished and moved by the clarity of the sea! Since it was snorkeling, I felt no anxiety and was able to slowly enjoy watching many colorful fish and corals, which was very soothing. I also encountered a sea turtle that was napping, and I was able to swim alongside it when it started to move, creating truly wonderful memories. The Blue Cave at Maeda Point was great, but the experience in Kerama was absolutely fantastic. I will definitely go again!!!

初めて行く慶良間諸島でのシュノーケリング。
顔をつけた瞬間、海の透明度に驚きと感動でしたー！！
シュノーケリングなので不安もなくたくさんのカラフルな魚やサンゴをゆっくり見られて癒されました。
お昼寝中のウミガメにも出会い、泳ぎだしたウミガメと一緒に泳ぐこともできてホントにいい思い出になりました。
真栄田岬の青の洞窟も良かったですが、慶良間での体験も最高に良かったです。
また絶対に行きます！！！

This was my first time having such a fulfilling experience!
During the diving, I was taken to a place with various corals and fish, and I even got to walk on the seabed!
In snorkeling, I was taken to a cave!
For lunch, we had a delicious, hearty bento made locally!
The instructor was well-organized and extremely kind!
They took a lot of photos, so I've been looking back at them many times! Haha
It was truly the best memory!
I want to participate again!
Thank you very much!

こんなに充実した体験初めてでした！
ダイビングでは色んな珊瑚や魚がいる場所に連れて行ってくれ、海底を歩くことまでさせて頂きました！
シュノーケルでは洞窟まで連れて行って貰えました！
お昼ごはんは地元で作られたボリューム満点の美味しいお弁当でした！
インストラクターさんの段取りも良く、すごく親切でした！
写真もたくさん撮って頂いたので、何度も写真見返してます！笑
本当に最高の思い出です！
また参加したいです！
ありがとうございました！

As a beginner in mountain climbing, this was my first solo trip to Yakushima, and I was welcomed right at the airport. They provided fitting for my shoes and explained everything thoroughly. In the morning, I was able to comfortably take a dedicated bus to the trailhead. Above all, the fellow participants in the climbing tour with the experienced guide were wonderful people, and I was able to reach the summit without giving up. It was truly a great experience.

登山初心者で屋久島初一人旅でしたが、空港ですぐ出迎えてくれ、靴のフィッティングやもろもろ説明をして下さいました。朝も専用バスで登山口まで安心して行けました。何より、ベテランのガイドさんと一緒に登山するツアーの仲間がとても良い方々でくじける事なく登りきる事が出来ました。本当に良かったです。

Three men participated: two in their late 30s and one in his 40s. The guide was a young woman. Although she had only been a guide for a year, she provided detailed and careful explanations about the plants, the views, and the names of the mountains! The three men had very little climbing experience, but I believe we were able to progress at a surprisingly fast pace thanks to the guide. The information about the remaining distance, landmarks, and the location of restrooms made a huge difference compared to climbing on our own. We descended earlier than planned, so we were able to spend some relaxing time at a secret spot recommended by the guide. To put it plainly, it was the best trip ever!

30代後半2名、40代1名　男3名で参加。
ガイドさんは若い女性の方でした。　まだガイド歴1年との事でしたが、植物や見える景色、山の名前など細かく丁寧に説明して頂けました！
男3名、登山経験はほとんど無かったのですが、意外とハイペースで進めたのもガイドさんのおかげだと思います。　残り距離や目印、トイレの位置など、自分たちだけで登山するのとガイドさんをつけるのでは、全然違う登山になったと思います。
予定より早く下山してきたので、ガイドさんおすすめの秘密のポイントでまったりとした時間を過ごすこともできました。
はっきり言って、最高の旅になりました！

Our family of three went on our first trip to Ishigaki Island.
The main event was a tour of Iriomote Island.
Of course, we were full of expectations.
Originally, we had signed up for a full-day tour, but since it involved swimming for an hour and a half at a waterfall, we canceled and chose this half-day tour instead.
I thought half a day would go by quickly, but it was quite the opposite.
We were satisfied with the canoeing and also enjoyed the trekking.
For lunch, we had rice balls, which were very delicious.
Our guide was friendly, and we had a great time.
If we have the opportunity, we will definitely participate again next time.
Thank you very much!

家族3人で初めての石垣島旅行。
メインは西表島のでこのツアーでした。
もちろん期待満々。
本当は１日ツアーを申し込んだのですが、滝で1時間半泳ぐというので、キャンセルしてこちらにしました。
半日なんてすぐかなぁと思っていたら、とんでもない。
カヌーも満足、トレッキングでも満足。
お昼もおにぎり、とっても美味しかった。
感じの良いガイドさんで、楽しく過ごしました。
機会があれば次回も絶対さんかします。
ありがとうございました

My wife was a bit anxious during her first snorkeling experience, but once she got into the water, she seemed to have a lot of fun. It was reassuring that the instructor was dedicated to teaching her. She appeared to be scared to let go of the float until the very end (laughs), but she was very happy to see the beautiful sea and lots of fish, even as a beginner. I apologize for any inconvenience, but it turned out to be a wonderful memory.

妻は初めてのシュノーケルで、最初は不安がっていましたが
海に入るととても楽しそうでした。
インストラクターが専属で教えてくれて安心でした。
最後までフロートから手を離すのは怖かった模様です（笑）が、
初めてでもきれいな海といっぱいの魚を見れてとても喜んでいました。
ご迷惑をお掛けしましたが、とても良い思い出になりました。

I participated with friends, and it was everyone's first time doing SUP. On the day, the wind was strong and there were waves, and the instructor mentioned from the start, "If you can stand, that's great," and "Falling and getting wet is a given." Naturally, everyone fell quite a bit, but with careful guidance, by the end, everyone was able to stand. Even the friend who struggled the most said, "It was fun, I want to do it again."

Given the conditions, it seemed they prioritized safety, as I thought we were paddling quite a distance following the guidance, but it was shallow enough to stand no matter where we fell. Additionally, they provided life jackets and wetsuits, which gave us a lot of reassurance.

What was unfortunate was that I was so focused on watching the waves that I didn't have the leisure to enjoy the sunset. I'm sure if the conditions were calmer, it would have been more enjoyable. However, since we all enjoyed the SUP itself, no one complained. For the same reason, even though I brought a camera, I didn't have the opportunity to take photos. After some hesitation, I decided to request the separate 2500 yen photography option, and I think that was the right choice. If you want photos in similar bad conditions, it's safer to arrange for that in advance.

Despite the poor conditions, everyone expressed a desire to do SUP again. It became a great memory.

友人たちと参加しました。全員が初SUPです。
当日は風が強めで波もあり、インストラクターの方も初めから「立てれば上出来」「落ちて濡れるのは確実」とおっしゃるコンディションでした。当然、全員が落ちまくりでしたが、丁寧にご指導いただいて最終的にはみんな立つことができていました。一番立つのに苦労していた友人さえ、「楽しかった、またやりたい」とのことでした。
そんなコンディションなので安全面を重視していただいたのか、誘導に従ってかなりの範囲を漕いでるつもりだったのですが、どこで落ちても足がつく深さでした。その上、ライフジャケットやウェットスーツも貸していただけるので、とても安心感がありました。

惜しかったのは波を見るのに必死で、夕日を楽しむ余裕はとてもなかったことです。きっと穏やかなコンディションなら、楽しめるのかもしれません。SUP自体を楽しめたので、誰も文句は言っていませんでしたが。
同じ理由で、カメラを持っていっても撮る余裕はありませんでした。迷った末に、別途2500円の撮影オプションをお願いしていたのですが、これは正解だったと思います。同じような悪コンディションで写真がほしい場合は、お願いしておいた方が無難です。
悪コンディションにもかかわらず、全員がSUPをまたやりたいという感想です。いい思い出になりました。

I had some concerns about my physical stamina, but I participated with my classmates. We were blessed with good weather and a great guide, making for a more fulfilling experience than I expected. The tramway was well-maintained and easy to walk on. The large tree path was a bit tough for my out-of-shape body at times, but I was able to manage it with the guide's advice. The Jomon Sugi, which we aimed to see, was of course amazing, but the several Yakusugi trees and the views of Mount Kuju and Mount Miyanoura from the tree gaps also lifted my spirits. The fact that this tour goes directly to the Arakawa Trailhead is a big plus. Just keep in mind that the weather is a matter of luck.

体力的には、少し不安もありましたが、同級生と参加しました。
天気とガイドさんにも恵まれ、予想以上の充実した時間でした。
トロッコ道は整備され歩き易かったです。
大株歩道は、運動不足気味の体にはきつい場面もありましたが、ガイドさんの助言でクリアできました。
目的の縄文杉はもちろん素晴らしかったですが、その前のいくつかの屋久杉や樹間から見える翁岳や宮之浦岳も気分を盛り上げてくれました。
このツアーは、荒川登山口まで直通というのも、ポイント高いですよ。
ただ天気だけは運次第なので、ご留意ください。

I participated with my family on October 21. The waves were high, and unfortunately, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave, so we ended up snorkeling offshore. At first, I felt shocked, but once I got into the water, it was unbelievably clear, and many colorful fish welcomed us. Each group had a dedicated staff member who ensured we could snorkel safely and enjoyably. They also took various photos (before departure, the moment we got off the boat into the sea, during snorkeling, and of the fish, etc.), so looking back at the first photo vividly reminds me of what happened that day. I don't know when I'll go to Okinawa next, but I want to have a revenge trip then!

10月21日に家族で参加しました。波が高く、残念ながら青の洞窟には行けなかったため、沖に出てのシュノーケルになりました。ショック、、という気持ちも初めのうちだけで、海に入ってみると信じられないほど透き通っていて、沢山のカラフルな魚たちが出迎えてくれます。各グループに1人のスタッフが専属で付いてくれ、安全に、かつ楽しくシュノーケル出来ました。写真も様々なカット（出発前、船から海へ降りる瞬間、シュノーケル中、魚などなど）を撮影してくれるので、1枚目から見返すとその日にあったことが鮮明に思い出せます。次いつ沖縄に行くか分かりませんが、その時はリベンジしたいと思います！
