All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

The starry sky was incredibly beautiful, and the photos turned out amazing!!!

It was like a planetarium starry sky!

I was able to see shooting stars several times, which made me feel so happy!

Thank you very much!

めっちゃ綺麗な星空に
フォト最高でしたー！！！

プラネタリウムみたいな星空でした！

流れ星も何回かみれて
幸せな気持ちになりました！

ありがとうございました！

I participated for my mother (71 years old) who wanted to ride a water buffalo. It was a dream come true to ride a water buffalo and cross the sea, which became the best memory. I found it fascinating to learn about the significance of water buffaloes to the people of Ishigaki Island.

It had been 20 years since I traveled with my mother, and I was anxious about how it would go, but I was grateful for the staff's thoughtfulness.

水牛に乗りたい母(71歳)のために参加しました。念願叶って水牛に乗れ、海を渡った事は最高の思い出になりました。石垣島の人にとって水牛がどんな存在だったのかを知ることができ、興味深く感じました。
母との旅行は20年ぶりで、どうなることかと不安でしたが、スタッフの方のお気遣いがありがたかったです。

It was a trip during the pandemic, but I felt that hygiene management, such as temperature checks and mask-wearing, was well taken care of. It was just my 4-year-old son and me, and the ferry ride was short, so we didn't get bored and had a great time. As soon as we arrived at Taketomi Island, we took a glass-bottom boat, and there were only half the capacity, which made it enjoyable. My son was very excited to see so many fish and looked like he was having a lot of fun. It was a pity that the guide's explanations were a bit hard to hear. The water buffalo cart ride was also relaxing and very enjoyable. It was a tour that I definitely want to do again.

コロナの中での旅行でしたが、検温、マスク着用など衛生管理はしっかりされてると思いました。
4歳の息子と二人でしたが、フェリーの時間が短いので飽きることもなく、楽しめていました。
竹富島に着いてすぐにグラスボートでしたが、定員の半分しかいなく、子供はたくさんのお魚に大興奮でとても楽しそうでした。
ガイドさんの説明が少し聞き取りづらかったのが残念。
水牛車ものんびりできてとても楽しめました。
またぜひ行きたいと思うツアーでした。

It's great that you can enjoy a full day if you pay for the tour! You can also buy ice cream and have lunch on-site. At Pineapple Park, be careful of mosquitoes; if you don't keep moving, you might run out of time later. The souvenirs are located further in, so if you stay in one spot, you won't have enough time! I really recommend it because you can spend a fulfilling day easily! I thought the price was reasonable for what you get! I would like to use it again!

ツアーだとお金を払えば1日楽しめるのがいいです！
あとは現地でアイス買ったりお昼食べたり、、
パイナップルパークは蚊に注意でどんどん進まないと後で時間なくなるので、、お土産も奥にあるので一つのところで止まってると時間足りなくなります！
1日を楽に充実して過ごせるので本当におすすめ！
値段も内容のわりに安いと思いました！また利用したいです！

The cornet I had at Pineapple Park was delicious. I want to go again.

The tour guide was very kind.

The water we received was also tasty.

I'm glad I signed up for this tour. Thank you!

パイナップルパークで食べたコロネが美味しかったです。
また行きたいです。

添乗員さん、すごく親切な方です。

いただいたお水も美味しかったです。

私はこのツアーに申し込んで良かったです。ありがとうございました！

When I boarded the bus, I noticed that the seats next to me were left empty, which made me feel that proper COVID-19 measures were being taken.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, you can reserve seats by the tank in a restaurant where you can enjoy a meal while watching the whale sharks. Despite it being Sunday, I was seated after just a 15-minute wait, so be sure to announce your name upon arrival at the large tank. There was a time limit of about 40 minutes, but it was enough time to enjoy taco rice.

The freshly made sata andagi at the newly constructed facility on the second floor of Manzamo was delicious. There were about 5 to 6 varieties, each costing 90 yen. You can enjoy them while sitting on the terrace with a view of the sea.

The only disappointment was that the weather on Kouri Island wasn't great. There's nothing that can be done about that.

I believe the main reason I had such a comfortable day was that the guide was wonderful. They provided guidance along the way with a pleasant voice, and their warm and gentle personality was truly soothing.

バスに乗り込むと、前後と通路を挟んだお隣は空席にしてあり、コロナ対策がしっかりとなされていると感じました。
美ら海水族館ではジンベイザメを眺めながら食事が出来るレストランの水槽側の席が予約可能です。日曜日にもかかわらず待ち時間15分で案内されたので、巨大水槽についたらまず名前を告げて予約しましょう。40分くらいの時間制限がありましたが、タコライスを食べるには十分な時間です。
万座毛に新たに建設された施設2階の揚げたてサーターアンダギーが
美味しかったです。5～6種類あり、1個90円。テラス席で海を見ながらいただけます。
唯一残念だったのは、古宇利島でお天気が良くなかったこと。こればかりは仕方ありません。
快適な一日を過ごせた最大の理由は、ガイドさんが素晴らしかったからだと思います。心地の良い声で道中案内してくださって、温かく穏やかなお人柄に癒されました。

I was staying at a hotel in Yomitan Village and didn't have a rental car, but I really wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I joined a tour. The tour efficiently covered the sightseeing spots, and there was no pressure to buy souvenirs, so I truly enjoyed it. The guide was great as well.

読谷村のホテルに泊まっていてレンタカーを借りていなかったのですが、どうしても美ら海水族館に行きたくて参加しました。
ツアーは効率よく観光場所を回り、無理にお土産等買わせようということもみられなかったので、本当に楽しめました。
ガイドさんもよかったです。

It was my first time in Ishigaki Island, so I chose to visit three islands.

I had no interest in the ox cart and mangroves, but I was moved by them. Yujiro, who was a part-time worker until Yufu Island, was a smart kid who got into the frame by himself and tied the reins on his own. Ryu, the handsome guy from Taketomi Island, was also wonderful. Everyone was great!

初めての石垣島でしたので 3島巡りを
選択しました。

牛車 マングローブ 全く興味がなかったのですが
感動しました。

皆 素敵でした♪

I participated because I felt it would be a waste to end my solo trip by just going out for drinks at night. I thought it might be geared towards children, but I was able to hear various stories about Ishigaki and see some rare creatures. It was a pity that we couldn't see the stars due to the weather, but thanks to the bright and enthusiastic staff, it became a wonderful memory of my trip.

一人旅故に夜は飲みに行って終わるのがもったいなく思い参加。子供向けかなと思いきや石垣の色々な話を聞くことができ、珍しい生き物を見ることができました。天候のせいで星は見られなく残念でしたが、明るく熱心なスタッフさんのおかげで旅の良き思い出となりました。

It was a wonderful trip where I was taken to places I wanted to visit even while sleeping. The guide's thoughtfulness and consideration were outstanding. There were also tourists from overseas, and I was impressed by the fluent English explanations.

In the evening, it was a pity that I couldn't see the beautiful emerald green sea at Manza Beach due to the reflection of the sun. Having visited in the morning, I can compare and see that the view is completely different. The beautiful sea color was not visible.

The photos were taken with the same equipment.

観光で行きたいところへ寝ていても連れて行ってもらえて素敵な旅でした。また、ガイドさんの気遣い配慮は素晴らしかったです。海外からの観光者もいらっしゃいましたが堪能な英語で説明されていて感心でした。
夕方の万座毛は太陽に反射されてしまって素敵なエメラルドグリーンの海が見えなかったところが残念でした。午前中に訪れたことがあるので比較すると見え方全然違っています。キレイな海色は見えずでした。
写真は同じ機器で撮っています。

In the morning, I enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and in the afternoon, I had a great time snorkeling.

I received a message the day before, and the meeting point was at the Imugya parking lot. The beach was just a 2-minute walk from there, so there was no chance of crowding, and I felt safe regarding infection control measures.

There were three people for SUP and three pairs for sea kayaking. After a brief introduction, we had practice time in shallow waters with almost no waves. It was a perfect spot where you could stand even if you fell, allowing for plenty of practice, and we even spotted some beautiful tropical fish. We were able to take photos from a high position as well.
Afterward, we moved to a slightly deeper area. It happened to be a windy day, so I struggled a bit with the current, but the instructor helped pull me back, and I managed to return safely. Thank you very much.
We dispersed at the parking lot. Most people were not soaked, so there was no particular need for a shower. We were able to rinse off the sand from our feet with bottled water.

In the afternoon, we gathered at Shigira Resort. There was about a two-hour gap between the morning and afternoon sessions, so we could drive to eat nearby Okinawa soba or even return to our accommodation if it was close.

For the afternoon snorkeling, they first taught us how to use the equipment, which was reassuring for beginners. We completed the procedures in the parking lot. Since we wore wetsuits and life jackets, sinking was not a concern.
We visited points where turtles often appear and spots to see clownfish, and the coral was very beautiful. What we could see depended on luck, but I was satisfied to see a sea snake in the distance, as well as a variety of fish like damselfish, filefish, wrasse, and parrotfish.
We rinsed off with bottled water and dispersed at the parking lot. I was also happy to receive the photos later. Thank you very much!

午前中はSUP、午後はシュノーケルでお世話になりました。どちらもとても楽しかったです。

前日に連絡が来て、集合はイムギャー駐車場。そこからわずか徒歩2分くらいのビーチで体験なので密になる隙もなく、感染症対策も安心でした。

SUP3人とシーカヤック3ペアで、それぞれ簡単に教えていただいた後はほとんど波のない浅瀬で練習時間。落ちても足が立つような所で思う存分練習できる上に、所々綺麗な熱帯魚まで見られます。高い位置からも写真を撮ってもらえました。
その後少し深い方へ移動、たまたま風が強い日だったので流されて苦労していたのですが、インストラクターさんに引っ張ってもらえてなんとか帰還できました、、ありがとうございました。
駐車場で解散。ほとんどの人は水没していないので特にシャワーの必要はなし。ペットボトルの水をかけてもらえるので足元の砂をはらったりできました。

午後は場所を変えてシギラリゾート集合でした。午前と午後の間は2時間くらいあったので車で近くの沖縄そばを食べに行くとか、近ければ宿にも戻れます。

午後のシュノーケルはまず機材の使い方から教えてもらえるので初心者も安心です。
駐車場で手続き。
ウェットスーツにライフジャケットを着る形なので沈むことはまずありません。
カメがよく出るポイントや、カクレクマノミのポイントと回ってもらえて、サンゴもとても綺麗でした。見れるものは運次第ですがウミヘビも遠くに見えたり、スズメダイやカワハギ、ベラやブダイなどバラエティ豊かな魚を見ることができ満足でした。
ペットボトルの水をかぶって駐車場で解散。
後から写真も送ってもらえて嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました！

Due to the pandemic, there were only four participants! Moreover, all of us were solo travelers (laughs). But thanks to that, we were able to bond and it turned into a fun trip! Thank you for operating with such a small group.

コロナ禍のせいか参加者が4人！
しかも全員1人参加同士（笑）
でもおかげで仲良くなれて楽しい旅と
なりました！少人数での運行ありがとうございます。

The tour was great as it allowed us to appreciate the beauty of each island. However, the COVID-19 measures were lacking, such as not addressing participants who did not wear masks. Please improve this.

ツアーはそれぞれの島の良さがわかり非常に良かったです。ただ、マスクを付けずに参加する人に注意しないなどコロナ対策は今一歩でした。改善ください。

On the day we took the tour, it was quite windy, so we gathered at the safe Imugya at 9:30 and enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and canoeing until around 10 to 11!

We could choose either SUP or canoeing, but since there were three of us, we were able to rent one of each and take turns! It was incredibly generous for us, as we were thinking, "We want to do both!" and "We can't choose!"

We had so much fun competing, splashing water on each other, taking photos, feeling the wind, and our guide even acted as a water taxi. After SUP and canoeing, we dove from the bridge! It was a bit scary, but it made for great memories!

We were also happy to see sea turtles and tropical fish!

Thank you so much! (*^^*)

私たちがツアーを利用した日は風が強かったので、入江になっていて安全なイムギャーで9:30集合で10-11くらいまでSUP、カヌーをしました！
SUPとカヌーはどちらか一方選べましたが、3名だったこともありSUPとカヌーどちらも1つづつレンタルでき、交代で乗ることができました！
「どっちもやりたい！」「選べない」と思っていた私たちにとってありがたすぎました！

競争したり、水を掛け合ったり、写真を撮ったり、風を感じたり、ガイドさんが水上タクシーをしてくれたりとても楽しかったです。
SUPとカヌーの後は橋からダイブ！
少し怖さはありましたがいい思い出ができました！

ウミガメも熱帯魚も見れて良かったです！

ありがとうございました(*^^*)

We were blessed with clear skies, and the color of the ocean was incredibly beautiful. We enjoyed underwater tours and an aquarium, along with stunning beaches. We arrived at American Village just in time for the sunset and were able to fully enjoy the sunset over the ocean from a fantastic location!

晴天に恵まれ、海の色が最高にキレイでした。海中遊覧や水族館と、絶景ビーチ。アメリカンビレッジもサンセットに合わせて到着し、海に沈む夕陽を最高のロケーションで堪能出来ました!

It was just as the reviews said!
The starry sky was something I've never seen before.
I was truly moved.
The staff were kind and even prepared background music, which almost brought me to tears!
This is definitely an option you should participate in when you visit Miyako Island.

クチコミ通りの体験でした！
今まで見たことのない星空
感動しかなかったです
スタッフの方々も親切でBGMまで用意してくださり涙があふれそうでした！
これは、宮古島に来たらぜひ参加して欲しいオプションです

I participated using the GoTo campaign. According to the guide, before COVID-19, it was fully booked every day. After reopening, it seems to be quite empty. There were only five participants on the day I joined.
The main stops were Manzamo, Kouri Island, Okashi Goten, Churaumi Aquarium, and Pineapple Park.
Each sightseeing spot was enjoyable to some extent, but since Okashi Goten also has a store in Naha's Kokusai Street, I honestly felt it wasn't necessary. Still, the staff at the sales store were very pleasant.
Additionally, we had lunch there, but the Okinawa soba was lukewarm and honestly did not suit my taste at all. It might have been better to use the cafeteria at the Kouri Island rest area.
I had heard the song from Pineapple Park many times at Don Quijote on Kokusai Street, so I felt, "Is this the place?" Also, the renovations varied greatly from place to place, which made me confused about whether the route we were taking was correct, and it took a long time to get through. The commercial aspect was very strong, and I wondered about that. Personally, I imagined a place where I could compare and taste different varieties of fresh pineapples.
That said, for those who want to enjoy the northern part without renting a car, this might be the best tour option.

GoToキャンペーンを利用して参加。ガイドさんに聞いたところコロナ前は連日満席。再開後は閑古鳥が鳴いているということでした。当日参加者は5名と少数。
主な停車場所は万座毛、古宇利島、御菓子御殿、美ら海水族館、パイナップルパーク。
各観光箇所はそれなりに楽しめましたが、御菓子御殿は那覇・国際通りにも店舗があるので正直必要性は…という感じ。それでも販売店舗の方の店員さんの感じは非常によかったです。
更にそこで昼食だったのですが沖縄そばがぬるかったし正直わたしの口にはまったく合いませんでした。古宇利島休憩所の食堂を利用した方がよかったかも。
パイナップルパークは曲を国際通りのドンキホーテで何度となく聴いていたので「ここがその場所か」という感じでした。また、改装の具合が場所ごとに全く違うことから移動しているルートが正しいのか戸惑い、抜けるのに時間がかかるのと商業色がめっちゃ強くてどうなんだろうなぁという感じです。個人的には素のパイナップルを品種別に比較して食べられるようなところを想像していました。
それでもレンタカーを借りないで少しでも北部を楽しもうとする人には一番向いたツアーではないでしょうか。

I had plenty of time to explore each site, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing efficiently without having to drive myself. Although I was concerned about COVID-19, it was reassuring that everyone was sanitized when getting on and off. The tour didn't include lunch, but I was happy to receive a complimentary sandwich.

どこの見学も充分な時間があり、自分で運転せずに、効率よく観光することができました。コロナの心配もありましたが、乗り降りの際に全員除菌するので、安心でした。お昼ご飯が付いていないコースでしたが、サービスでサンドイッチも一枚頂けて嬉しかったです。

I made a last-minute trip reservation the day before, but everything was processed smoothly, and I am satisfied. The bus tour and the guide were both very dedicated, and I felt positively about it. I'm glad I participated.

突然、思い立った旅行で前日の予約でしたが
全てスムーズに処理されて満足です。
バスツアーもガイドさんも一生懸命で好感が持てました、参加して良かったです。

I enjoyed the glass board, the bus, and the water buffalo. I was very satisfied with all of them. In particular, I felt a relaxed time with the water buffalo, which made me very happy.

グラスボード
バス
水牛
と楽しみました。どれもとても満足でした。
特に水牛はのんびりした時間を感じれ、大変満足しました。

Due to the impact of the typhoon, the planned activities were changed, but the staff's response was wonderful, so I was able to enjoy it without any issues. I would like to participate again.

台風の影響で予定していた内容が変更になりましたが、スタッフの方々の対応が素晴らしかったので無事に楽しむことができました。
また参加したいと思います。

I made a reservation through Veltra, but I didn't receive any follow-up emails from the local provider, and there was no contact until around noon on the day of the event, so I reached out again. In the end, my reservation was confirmed, and I was able to have the photoshoot, but even though I had already completed the payment process with a credit card, I was still asked to pay in cash, and it wasn't until I pointed it out that they realized it was a double charge. After the session, I mentioned that I would appreciate it if I could receive the data not only in JPEG but also in LAW format, but they said that was not possible. The photos taken were very good, but I was a bit disappointed with the other aspects of the service.

veltraを通して予約したところ、現地からの折り返しメールが一向に入らず、当日の昼頃までなにも連絡が無かった為、こちらから再度連絡しました。結局、無事に予約が確定して、撮影することは出来たのですが、最後もすでにクレジットで支払いをする手続きをしていたにもかかわらず、現金でも支払いを請求され、こちらから指摘するまでは二重請求だと気づかれることもありませんでした。終了後、可能ならばデータをJPEGだけではなく、LAWで貰えたら嬉しいとお伝えしましたが、それも対応不可とのこと。撮っていただいた写真がとても良かっただけに、他の対応が少しがっかりでした。

The mangroves of Iriomote Island, the water buffalo cart to Yufu Island, the water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island, and the guidance from the bus driver were all enjoyable experiences for sightseeing.

西表島のマングローブ、由布島へ渡る水牛車、武富島の水牛車、バスの運転手さんのガイド、どれも楽しく観光出来ました。

I participated alone. There was another person who also joined alone, so I didn't feel too awkward. The main attraction was the Churaumi Aquarium, and I was able to see various places in one day, including Manzamo and Nago Pineapple Park. It had been nearly 10 years since my last visit to Okinawa, but the beauty of the scenery was just as stunning, and I really enjoyed it.

1人で参加しました。他にも1人で参加されている方がいたので気まずい思いはそこまでしませんでした。
美ら海水族館をメインに、万座毛や名護パイナップルパークなど1日で色んな所を見れました。
約10年近くぶりの沖縄でしたが、景色の美しさは変わらずとても楽しめました。

I participated alone, but I was glad I could go to the places I wanted to visit. They had proper COVID-19 measures in place, and the seating arrangements were considerate, allowing me to spend my time comfortably. The Churaumi Aquarium, which I really wanted to visit, was breathtaking. There was plenty of free time to enjoy everything thoroughly.

1人で参加しましたが行きたい場所に行く事が出来て良かったです。
コロナ対策もきちんとしており座席も考えていて
気持ちよく過ごせました。
どうしても行きたかった美ら海水族館は感動しました。自由行動の時間も多く十分楽しめました。

I have visited Ishigaki Island before, but this was my first time participating in the night safari. Unfortunately, it was drizzling, so we couldn't enjoy stargazing, but instead, we were taken to the beautiful night view at Banna Park! During the night safari, I was able to see many rare creatures unique to the Yaeyama Islands, such as coconut crabs, black-breasted leaf turtles, and Ryukyu scops owls. I was surprised to encounter so many of them. The guide was also cheerful and a great storyteller, making it a fun tour.

石垣島には以前訪れたことがあるのですが、ナイトサファリは今回初めて参加しました。
あいにく小雨が降っており、星空鑑賞はできませんでしたが、そのかわりバンナ公園の素敵な夜景に連れていっていただきました！
ナイトサファリではヤシガニやセマルハコガメ、リュウキュウコノハズクなど八重山固有の珍しい生き物をたくさん見ることができました。こんなに出会えるとは思わなかったのでびっくりしました。
ガイドのお兄さんも明るく話上手で、楽しいツアーになりました。

It was a place that was a bit difficult to visit alone, but there was a sightseeing bus that took us to the two desired locations, allowing us to use our time very efficiently. I was very satisfied to visit the Sefa Utaki and the Valley of Gangala, as well as the caves and sacred sites that have remained since ancient times.

一人なのでなかなか行きづらい場所でしたが、観光バスで希望の2箇所周遊があり、とても効率よく回れる時間も有効に使えました。斎場御嶽と、ガンガーラの谷と、古代から残る洞窟や聖地に行けてとても満足です。

The sea conditions the day before were poor, so we changed our plan from snorkeling to SUP and canyoning. It was both of our first times, but with the thorough explanations, we were able to enjoy it safely.

On the SUP, we spent a relaxing time surrounded by plenty of greenery in the mangroves. The changing scenery over time was also captivating. The gentle current made it possible for beginners to stand up.

Canyoning was a bit scary at first, but once you jump into the river, the fun takes over. The river water might be a little cold. Playing in the midst of nature in 360° was the best way to refresh both mind and body.

Additionally, our guide took photos and shared various information about the flora and fauna and the island, allowing us to fully enjoy Iriomote Island. Next time, I would like to try snorkeling as well.

前日の海の状況が悪く、シュノーケリングからSUP +キャニオニングのプランに変更。
どちらも初めてでしたが、丁寧な説明で安全に楽しむことができました。
SUPはマングローブ内で沢山の緑に触れゆったりとした時間を過ごすことができます。時間で変わっていく景色も魅力的でした。流れが穏やかなので初心者でも立つことができました。
キャニオニングは最初は怖さがありますが、１度川に飛び込めば楽しさの方が勝ちます。少し川の水は冷たいかも。360°大自然の中で思いっきり遊んで心もカラダもリフレッシュできて最高でした。
プラスαでガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださったり、動植物や島のことなど色んなことを教えてくれるので沢山西表島を満喫できました。次は、シュノーケリングも体験してみたいです。

The tour was conducted with a small group, and everyone participated individually! I usually feel uncomfortable, so it was a relief mentally, haha. At Oishi Bunsan, we went trekking while chatting together. At Churaumi Aquarium, some programs were temporarily closed, but it was less crowded, and we had a longer stay, so we could take our time and enjoy it thoroughly.

少人数で催行してもらえた上、全員ひとり参加！
いつも居心地悪いしてたので、気分的にも楽でしたww
大石林山では、みんなで雑談しながらのトレッキングでした。
美ら海水族館は一部休止のプログラムもありましたが、空いてた上、滞在時間も長めだったので、のんびり•じっくりできました。

I have traveled to Okinawa many times, but since I'm not good at driving, I decided to take the bus to the northern part and joined this tour!
It was my first time visiting the Tropical Dream Center. The orchid flowers were very vibrant and beautiful. Also, the view from the observation deck inside the facility offers a panoramic view of the blue ocean. It was breathtaking!
At the Okashi Goten, the fresh purple sweet potato tart was delicious.
During the bus ride, the bus guide sang Okinawan songs, and I had a great time.

沖縄旅行は何度もしているのですが、車の運転が苦手なため、北部へはバスで行こうと思いこのツアーに参加させていただきました！
熱帯ドリームセンターへは初めて行きました。ランの花がとても鮮やかでキレイでした。また施設内の遠見台から見る景色は青い海を一望できます。絶景でした！
お菓子御殿では生の紅イモタルトがおいしかったです。
バス乗車中は、バスガイドさんが沖縄の歌を歌ってくれるなど楽しい時を過ごせました。
