All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

We participated as a family of four.
It was our first experience with stand-up paddleboarding, but the environment at the tour location was calm, and the guide's explanations were concise and good.
There were times we were delayed, but there was no atmosphere of pressure, and we were grateful for their patience.

The snorkeling location was changed due to the weather on the day, but the water was clear, and even in deeper areas, visibility was good, which made it enjoyable (though this depends on the weather).
I had no particular complaints and had a great time. Thank you!

家族4名で参加しました
SUPは初めての体験でしたが、ツアー場所の環境が穏やかで、担当の方の説明も簡潔で良かったです
途中遅れる事もありましたが、焦らせるような雰囲気もなく、根気よくおつきあいいただけてありがたかったです

シュノーケリングは当日の天候により場所が変更になりましたが、透明度が高く、深いエリアでも視界が開けていて楽しめました（この辺りは天候次第ですが）
特に不満もなく楽しめました。ありがとうございました

I participated in a tour this time because it's not easy to visit the northern attractions alone. It included the power spot at Daishi Forest, which I've wanted to visit for years, as well as the cute Okinawa Rail and Cape Hedo—it's the perfect itinerary for me.

First, we went to the national park, and there were plenty of souvenirs at the roadside station. The lemon cake was delicious. After that, we had lunch and headed to Cape Hedo, where the scenery was beautiful and we enjoyed some tasty seafood.

Daishi Forest was indeed wonderful. There are three different routes, but I couldn't see everything I wanted to, yet I managed to explore two of the courses. The experience was incredibly impressive.

I thought there would be many Okinawa Rails, but I only saw one. It was cute, though. Overall, it was a satisfying day.

北部観光はなかなか一人ではいけないので、今回ツアーに参加しました。何年か前から行ってみたかった大石林山のパワースポットや可愛いヤンバルクイナ、辺戸岬が入っているわたしには最高の工程です。まずは、国立公園へ、道の駅でもお土産がたくさんありました。レモンケーキ美味しかった。その後はランチして辺戸岬へ、景色も綺麗で美味しい海鮮もいただきました。
大石林山は、やっぱり素敵でした。ルートが3他に分かれているのですが、見たいとこだけみることはできずそれでも2コース回ってきました。大迫力で最高です。
ヤンバルクイナは、たくさんいるのかなって思いきや、1羽。でも可愛かったです。
全体的に満足の一日でした。

I am very satisfied after visiting three islands from morning until evening! Iriomote Island had breathtaking scenery that I've never seen before, on Yubu Island I got to ride a water buffalo cart and interact with the water buffalo, and on Taketomi Island, I enjoyed the Okinawan-style streets while riding in the water buffalo cart. It was an incredibly fun and fulfilling day!

朝から夕方まで3つの島をまわって大満足です！
西表島は見たことのない壮大な景色で、由布島は水牛車に乗れて水牛とも触れ合えて、竹富島では水牛車に乗りながら沖縄らしい街並みを見て、濃い1日でめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！

I had mostly only come for work, but on this tour, I was able to learn a bit about Okinawa. It was nice to hear the guide's stories after such a long time.

ほとんど仕事でしか来たことがなかったが、このツアーで、少し沖縄を知ることが出来ました。久しぶりに聞くガイドさんの話も良かった。

We departed as scheduled at 19:30 and arrived at our destination in about 30 minutes! ^_^ Although we couldn't see the stars due to the weather, we were able to see a lot of coconut crabs!!! We also saw many creatures in a jungle-like area, which was great! ^_^

Additionally, whenever we encountered animals along the way, the guide would stop and catch them to bring into the car, which was an amazing hospitality experience!!! Thank you very much!!!!

予定通り19:30に出発し、30分ほどで目的地へ到着^_^！！！
天候により星は見られませんでしたが、ヤシガニをたくさんみることが出来ました！！！！！
他にもジャングルなようなところでたくさん生き物を見れたのでよかったです^_^！！！！

そして、道中に生き物がいたりしたらその都度止まってくださり、車内に捕まえて持ってきてくださったりとおもてなしが最高でした！！！！！
ありがとうございました！！！！！！！！！！

If you go alone, planning can be quite challenging, but you can visit all the places. Lunch is on your own, but it was nice to be able to bring food on the bus. The guide was very knowledgeable, and I was never bored during the journey. It's best to pay attention to the scenery of the bridge you pass while moving to Kouri Island.

1人で全て行くとなると計画が大変になるところを全部回れます。
お昼ご飯は各自になりますが、バスに持ち込んで食べられるのはありがたかったです。
ガイドさんの知識も豊富で、移動中も全く退屈しませんでした。
古宇利島への移動中に通る橋の景色はよく見ていたほうが良いです。

It's quite packed, but I think it's understandable if you're visiting three islands in one day. It seems like you can enjoy it more if you take a quick look first and then focus on the islands you liked for a more leisurely visit. Especially, I believe you'll want to visit Iriomote Island again later.

相当詰め込まれてますが1日で3島回るなら仕方ないと思います。最初にざっと見て気に入った島を再度重点的に訪問するとゆっくり楽しめそうです。特に西表島は後日改めて行きたくなるはず。

I had a water buffalo experience on Taketomi Island. It was a small island with few people, and I felt like my mind was really refreshed; it was wonderful. Everyone was kind, which made me happy. The buffalo were super cute and amusing! Since I went in the summer, it was very hot, so staying hydrated is essential! I think it would be good to have something to wipe off sweat as well!

竹富島で水牛体験しました。
小さな島で人も少なくとても心が洗われたような気がしてとてもよかったです。
人も皆さん優しくて嬉しかったです。
牛さんもめっちゃ可愛くて面白かったです！
夏に行ったのでとても暑かったので水分補給は必須です！
汗を拭くものもあれば良いと思います！

The cow was much larger than I expected and incredibly impressive! The lady's singing was also wonderful. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

牛が予想以上に大きくて迫力抜群でした！お姉さんの歌も素敵でした。また機会があれば参加させていただきたいです。

Walking along the mountain path at night was initially scary, but thanks to the guide's clear instructions, I was able to enjoy the walk. I encountered various animals like coconut crabs and frogs, and I was moved by seeing the Milky Way for the first time. It was a tour that left me very satisfied.

夜の山道、初めは怖かったけど、ガイドさんのわかりやすい案内で楽しく歩けました。ヤシガニやカエルなど、いろんな動物にも会えたし、初めて見た天の川に感動したし、大満足のツアーでした。

It was my first trip to Okinawa. I was anxious about driving in an unfamiliar place, so I signed up for this bus tour. I was very pleased to be able to see beautiful Okinawa scenery, including Kouri Island and Manzamo. The main attraction, the Churaumi Aquarium, was so large that even two and a half hours wasn't enough time, and I would love to visit again. The large tank with whale sharks and manta rays was truly impressive. I was also satisfied with the many souvenirs I found at the Okashi Goten and Pineapple Park. The audio guide offered various languages, making it a great option for travelers from abroad. The bus guide was very polite and cheerful. Thank you for a wonderful trip.

初めての沖縄旅行でした。知らない土地での運転に不安があったため、このバスツアーを申し込みました。
古宇利島や万座毛など美しい沖縄の景色を回ることができてとてもよかったです。
メインの美ら海水族館も2時間半の時間では足りないくらい広い公園になっていて、また訪れたいと思いました。ジンベエザメやマンタなどが泳ぐ大水槽は迫力満点でした。
御菓子御殿やパイナップルパークでもお土産を沢山見ることができて満足しました。
音声のガイドも、色々な言語が用意されたので、海外からの旅行者にもおすすめです。
バスガイドさんもとても丁寧で明るい対応でした。
素敵な旅行をありがとうございました。

This course was packed with the charm of Ishigaki Island. I don't think I could have explored it all in one day without a rental car. At Kabira Bay, I was very satisfied to encounter sea turtles at the glass-bottom boat. The guide was very kind and I learned about the history and culture of Ishigaki Island. The lunch was also very delicious. I think this was the best tour for beginners to Ishigaki Island tourism.

石垣島の魅力がギュッと詰まったコースでした。レンタカー無しの旅ではとても1日では周りきれなかったと思います。川平湾ではグラスポートでウミガメに出会う事が出来て大満足でした。ガイドさんの案内もとても親切で石垣島の歴史、文化など知ることが出来ました。昼食もたいへん美味しかったてす。石垣島観光初心者にはベストなツアーだったと思います。

I participated in this tour on my first visit to Iriomote Island.

In the morning, we went out to the sea for snorkeling around Barasu Island and its surrounding points (led by Shōtarō). The beauty of Ishigaki was impressive, but the stunning clarity of the ocean and the colorful corals were breathtaking! We were lucky enough to encounter a shark! I also took many photos underwater, creating the best memories.

In the afternoon, we did SUP in the mangrove river (led by Ren). It was my first time on a SUP, but they taught me carefully, and it was easy and felt great! I got to see and touch rare creatures and plants with knowledgeable explanations, which was really interesting.

The staff were cheerful, and it was an incredibly fun tour! I want to stay on Iriomote Island next time!

初の西表島でこちらのツアーに参加しました。

午前は海にでてバラス島とその周りのポイントでシュノーケル。(担当:しょうたろうさん)
石垣も綺麗でしたが桁違いの海の綺麗さと色とりどりのサンゴに感動！運良くサメにも遭遇しました！
水中から沢山写真も撮っていただき最高の思い出になりました‍♀️

午後はマングローブの川でSUP。(担当:れんさん)
初めてのSUPでしたが丁寧に教えていただき簡単に乗れて気持ち良かった！
珍しい生き物や植物を知識豊富な説明つきで見たり触ることができてとっても面白かったです‍♀️

スタッフの皆さんが明るく最高に楽しいツアーでした！
次は西表島にも泊まりたいです！

I landed on Iriomote Island for the first time, and this tour was truly amazing!!! The woman guiding the mangrove boat tour gave really great explanations. The bus driver's stories on the way to the boarding area for Yubu Island were also a lot of fun, making us laugh on the bus. The stories about the water buffalo on Yubu Island were interesting, and I'm really glad I participated.

西表島には初めて上陸したけど、このツアーは本当に最高！！！
マングローブの遊覧船の案内してくれる女性の方の説明が本当に良かった。
その後の、由布島に行く乗り場までのバスの運転手のお話も凄く楽しくてバスの中で笑いが出るくらいでした。
由布島の水牛をお話が面白く本当に参加して良かった。

The tour includes everything, such as the Pineapple Park cart ride, the entrance fee for the Churaumi Aquarium, and the entrance fee for Manzamo, making it perfect for sightseeing!

However, I intended to take a taxi to the Nakijin Castle ruins near Churaumi, but the parking lot was very far from the aquarium, and there were many attractions, so even with two and a half hours of free time, it was impossible.

I gave up early and thoroughly enjoyed watching the whale sharks at the aquarium, the dolphin show, and browsing the souvenir shops until the very end.

It might not be suitable for those who want to focus on one place, but I recommend it for those who want to see a little bit of everything!

There were many foreign visitors, but there were audio guides in various languages, and the tour guide was fluent in English, so international guests can easily participate.

By the way, there was background music on the bus, so I didn't mind the sounds of children crying too much. I think it would be fine for those with small children.

パイナップルパークの周遊カートだったり、美ら海水族館の入場料に万座毛の入場料など全てが付いてるので観光がしっかり出来て最高です！

ただ美ら海の近くの今帰仁城跡にもタクシーで行くつもりだったのですが、駐車場から水族館までがめっちゃ遠く、見どころも多いため２時間半の自由行動があっても無理でした。

早々に断念し、水族館でジンベイザメをじっくり見て、イルカショーも見て、お土産のショップも回って時間いっぱい満喫しました。

じっくり１箇所みたいって人にはむかないかもですが、少しずつあちこち見たいという人にはおすすめです！

外国の人も多かったけど、各国の音声ガイドもあり、添乗員さんも英語が堪能で、海外の人も問題なく行けますよ。

そう言えばバス内にBGMがかかってるので、お子さんとかの泣き声もあまり気になりませんでした。
小さなお子様のいる方も大丈夫かと思います。

About 20 people participated, including some from overseas. The tour guide explained the precautions in both Japanese and English on the bus. There was an audio description of the spots we visited. Since it was part of a campaign, it was more economical than going to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium individually. We had to stop at the souvenir shop, though...

The tour guide was efficient and managed the schedule smoothly. When I asked for advice, they provided accurate information, which was reassuring. One concern I had was that as soon as we arrived at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, there was a downpour, and those without umbrellas got completely soaked during the 10-minute walk from the parking lot to the entrance. There was no consideration for this at all. For some reason, we couldn't wait under the roof that was just 5 seconds away while they took attendance, leaving us exposed to the rain... An umbrella is a must. The tour guide had an umbrella, so that was fine for them, but I wonder if it was a matter of personality, local customs, or being so focused on time that they didn't notice the surroundings...?

We were able to go through the aquarium within the allotted time. Including the round trip to the parking lot, I personally felt that three hours would allow for a leisurely visit. It was a weekday, but there was some traffic when we entered the city on the way back. We arrived almost on time.

海外の方含め20名程参加されてました。
車内では日本語と英語で注意事項等を添乗員が説明。
訪れるスポットの説明がイヤホンであります。
キャンペーンでの参加だったので美ら海水族館に個人で行くよりお得でした。お土産売り場立ち寄りは必須でしたが…。
添乗員はテキパキと時間通りのスムーズな進行。相談すると的確にアドバイスをくれ安心でした。
一つ疑問だったのは、美ら海水族館到着と同時にスコールあり、駐車場から水族館入口迄の10分程の道中、傘を持参してない人達はずぶ濡れだったのですが、全くの配慮なし。点呼するのに何故か直ぐ(5秒)側にある屋根がある所では待たせて貰えず…度々雨ざらしで待ちぼうけ…。
傘必須です。添乗員ご自身は傘をさされいたので良いのでしょうが、人間性なのか、県民性なのか、時間厳守のあまり周りが見えて無かったのか…？

水族館は時間内にさっと回る事ができました。駐車場迄の往復時間含めると、3時間あればゆっくり回れると個人的には感じました。
平日でしたが帰りは市内に入ると所々渋滞あり。到着時刻はほぼ時間通りでした。

I experienced a stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) tour in the morning and a snorkeling tour in the afternoon. The SUP in the mangroves was very pleasant and enjoyable even for beginners.

For snorkeling, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to rough waves, but instead, we were lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle at Okisaki Beach. The instructor during the tour provided very clear explanations and also recommended nearby dining spots, which was very helpful for enjoying this new place!

午前中にサップ、午後にシュノーケリングのツアーを体験しました。マングローブの中で行うサップはとても気持ちが良く、初心者でも楽しめました。
シュノーケリングでは、波が荒いということで青の洞窟には行けませんでしたが、代わりに行った大崎ビーチでは運良く海ガメに出会うことができました。ツアー中のインストラクターの方の解説がとても分かりやすく、周辺のおすすめの食事場所も教えていただき、初めての場所で楽しむためにとても参考になりました！

The lunch on Yufu Island included local cuisine and was delicious. I didn't know much about water buffalo, but there was an explanation about them, making it a fun experience. The descriptions of the island and the mangroves were refreshing, as there was a lot I didn't know. It was a fulfilling day where I could experience something out of the ordinary.

由布島のランチも郷土料理がはいっていて、おいしかったです。水牛のこともあまり知りませんでしたが、水牛の説明もあり、楽しい体験でした。
島の説明やマングローブの説明、知らないことが多く新鮮でした。
非日常が味わえて１日充実していました。

It was a very well-organized bus tour! However, it seemed a bit hard for my elderly mother. Since we didn't have much time, I think it was a much shorter trip compared to traveling by rental car.

とてもまとまりの良いバスツアーでした！
でも、高齢の母には少しハードだったみたいです。
時間があまりないので、レンタカーでまわるより、とても短縮した旅になると思います。

I participated in snorkeling tours all over the main island and the outer islands, but the staff's service here was the best! Thank you for a truly wonderful time!! Thank you, Yama-chan and Hikaru-kun! Looking forward to seeing you again!

本島、離島含めてあちこちでシュノーケルツアーに参加しましたがスタッフの方の対応はここが一番でした！本当に素敵な時間を有り難うございました！！ヤマちゃん　ひかるくん有難う！またよろしくねー

No driving! No getting lost! The guide's stories were very informative. The timing was perfect, making it easy to plan the rest of the day.

運転なし！道に迷うこともなし！
ガイドさんのお話しもとても勉強になりました。
時間もピッタリで、その後の予定が立てやすいです。

I traveled alone in the summer, and my middle school grandchild, after hearing about Okinawa, said they wanted to go, so we came together during the autumn break. Pineapple Park was more fun than I expected, the ice cream was delicious, and the dinosaur zone was a hit. Churaumi Aquarium was a classic joy, and the whale shark was truly amazing. Additionally, Manza Beach was particularly impressive! I was overwhelmed by its beauty. Thank you very much. Next time, I will visit with a larger group!

夏にひとり旅で、沖縄の話を聞いた中学生の孫が、行きたーいと言うので、秋休みを利用して2人で来ました。
パイナップルパークは思ったより楽しくてアイスも美味しいし、恐竜ゾーンが盛り上がりました。
美ら海水族館は定番の楽しさでやっぱりジンベイザメは最高でした。
あと、ことのほか良かったのは、万座毛です♪
その美しさには、圧倒されました。
ありがとうございました。
また、今度は、もう少し大人数で訪れます♪

The main highlight of this trip to Okinawa was the Churaumi Aquarium, so I booked this tour that allows plenty of time at the aquarium. Even though it was a weekday, it was busier than I expected due to inbound tourists and school trips, but I was still able to see the whale sharks as much as I wanted. Additionally, I got to see the dolphin show, which made me very satisfied! The staff accompanying us were very friendly, which was great. They introduced many highlights and recommended souvenirs at the places we visited. Thanks to their advice on where to buy lunch at Kouri Island station, I was able to relax even more at the aquarium!

今回の沖縄旅行のメインが美ら海水族館だったので、水族館にたっぷり時間をさいているこちらのツアーを予約しました。平日とはいえインバウンドや修学旅行で想像以上に混んでいましたが、それでもジンベエザメを好きなだけ見れました。加えてイルカのショーも見れたので大満足です！また同行のスタッフさんがとても気さくな方でよかったです。訪問先の見どころやおすすめのお土産もたくさん紹介してくれました。古宇利島の駅で昼食購入を教えてくださったおかげで、さらに水族館でゆっくりできました！

I booked this trip with the intention of snorkeling at Barasu Island, but the mangrove tour in the morning was even more enjoyable than I expected! Our guide, Komugi, explained the ecology of the plants and animals in detail, making it not just visually enjoyable but also educational. I won’t go into details to avoid spoilers, but I highly recommend anyone visiting Iriomote Island to participate in the mangrove tour! By the way, I was torn between SUP and canoeing, and I chose the canoe!

As for Barasu Island, the weather was perfect, and it was truly beautiful. The surface of the water was so clear. During the tour, they also took photos for us, creating wonderful memories!

バラス島のシュノーケリングを目当てに予約しましたが、午前中のマングローブが想像以上に楽しかったです！ガイドのこむぎさんが植物や動物の生態を丁寧に説明してくださるので、目で見て楽しむだけではなく勉強にもなりました。ネタバレになるので詳細は伏せますが笑
ぜひ西表島に行く機会のある方はマングローブツアー参加して欲しいです！ちなみに私はSUPと悩んでカヌーにしました！
そして、本命のバラス島も天気に恵まれて本当に綺麗でした。海面がとぅるんとぅるん。ツアー中はお写真も撮ってくださり、とてもよい思い出になりました！

I wanted to drive around Ishigaki Island, but recently I've been a nervous driver and lacked confidence. Also, the local buses run infrequently, so I was about to give up when I found this tour.

While we did visit each sightseeing spot quickly, the friendly guide provided various explanations on the bus, and we were able to visit all the places we wanted.

At Kabira Bay, riding the glass-bottom boat means you can't relax on the sandy beach, but you can encounter cute creatures like sea turtles and clownfish.

Additionally, you can get off at the airport on the way back, so it's recommended to include this on your last day.

石垣島をドライブしたかったのですが、最近は、ペーパードライバーなので自信がなく、また、路線バスも本数が少なく、諦めかけていたときに、このツアーを見つけました。
各々の観光地は駆け足でめぐる感じにはなりますが、感じの良いガイドさんが、バス車内でも色々説明してくださいますし、行きたい場所はすべてまわる事ができました。
川平湾で、グラスボートに乗ると、砂浜でゆっくりすることはできませんが、ウミガメや、カクレクマノミなど、可愛い生き物たちに出会うことができます。
帰りも、空港で下車できるので、最終日に組み込むのもオススメです。

I was picked up at my accommodation, Hoshino Resort, and we went to Uehara Port where I greeted my guide. As a beginner in stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), I received a detailed lecture from the guide before the experience, which made me feel secure and allowed me to enjoy it.

Due to the timing, the water was shallow, and we occasionally got stuck, but I was still able to have a lot of fun as a beginner. Whenever I struggled to keep up with the team's pace, the guide actively supported me. They also introduced information about Iriomote Island, the local wildlife, and recommended restaurants along the way, which was helpful for my future stay on the island.

In the afternoon, we briefly disbanded at Uehara Port and went on a tour to Barasu Island. Similarly, before snorkeling, the guide provided a very detailed lecture. I felt a bit anxious since it had been a while since I last snorkeled, but I was able to enjoy the tour comfortably without any water entering my goggles or fogging up.

Throughout both the morning and afternoon, the guide took photos for us. In the morning, they used a very high-quality camera, and in the afternoon, the guide even dove underwater to take pictures, which we could never have captured ourselves. These photos became truly unforgettable memories.

After the tour, it seemed we could take a shower at the office, but we were kindly taken directly back to Hoshino Resort. From start to finish, I felt very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed the tour. I am truly grateful to everyone involved.

宿泊先の星野リゾートまでお迎えに来ていただき、そこから上原港まで行き、担当ガイドとご挨拶しました。
サップ初心者でしたが、体験前に担当ガイドから詳しいレクチャーをしていただき、安心して楽しむことができました。
サップは時間帯的に水が干上がっており、時折座礁しましたが、初心者でも充分楽しめることができました。
チームのペースについていけない時は、積極的にガイドがサポートしており、また、西表島についての事や生き物、おすすめのご飯屋さんなど道中で紹介してくれ、これからの西表島を過ごすための参考になりました。
午後は一旦上原校で解散してバラス島のツアーに行きました。
同じようにシュノーケリング前には担当ガイドから大変詳しいレクチャーがあり、久しぶりのシュノーケリングで少し不安でしたが、ゴーグルから水が入ることもなく、くもりもなく大変快適にツアーを楽しむことができました。
午前午後とも担当ガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださいました。午前は大変画質の良いカメラで、午後はなんとガイドさんが水中に潜り、水中の中での写真を撮っていただけました。自分たちでは絶対に撮れない写真なので、本当に一生の思い出になりました。
ツアー終了後は、事務所でシャワーを浴びることもできたみたいですが、私たちはご好意でそのまま宿泊先の星野リゾート送っていただけました。初めから終わりまで、大変心地が良く、快適にツアーを楽しむことができました。皆さんには本当に感謝しています。

I decided to join the tour to Ishigaki Island on a whim, thinking I would have some free time at night, but the starry sky was beautiful, and I got to see various creatures, including coconut crabs, making it an amazing night! By the way, I participated alone, but the guide and the other participants were kind, so I was able to enjoy myself without any worries. For those who might be concerned about going alone, I think it's totally fine!

フラッと石垣島行くけど夜時間あるなぁくらいの軽い気持ちで参加しましたが、星空はキレイやしヤシガニ始め色々な生き物見れて最高の夜になりました!!
ちなみに一人での参加でしたがガイドさんや周りの参加者の方々が親切で気にせず楽しめたので、一人やしなぁって気にされる方も全然大丈夫やと思います!!

The sea turtles were amazing. The guide's knowledge about sea turtles was impressive and very educational. I will make a reservation again when I go to Miyako Island.

ウミガメ最高でした。
ガイドさんのウミガメの知識もすごくて勉強になりました。
また宮古島に行ったら予約します。

You can smoothly visit the three islands. As mentioned in the reviews, the bus driver on Ishigaki Island was enjoyable to talk to, and I was able to see a baby water buffalo on the Yufu water buffalo cart. I recommend renting a bicycle on Taketomi Island. I think walking along the coast can be a bit tiring.

3島巡りスムーズに回れます
口コミにあるとおり、石垣島バスドライバーの話も楽しく、由布水牛車では水牛の子供も見れました
竹富島はレンタサイクルをおすすめします
徒歩で海岸沿いに散策するのは、ちょっとしんどいと思います

In the morning, I did SAP in the mangroves, and in the afternoon, I went snorkeling at a beach recommended by the staff!

It was a full-day course, but there were breaks, so I didn't feel rushed, which was great. Although the weather was bad and the snorkeling at the Blue Cave was changed to a different beach, I was satisfied.

The meeting place was easy to find, and it was helpful that I could make a reservation even the day before. The staff members were different for the morning and afternoon tours. If you're in the city, they will pick you up at your hotel, making it convenient to return from the beach without needing to change. We used the shower room, which is about a 5-minute walk from the terminal. We were also taken to our destination by bus. There was no specific explanation, but I saw a notice indicating a fee of 500 yen per person. I paid at that time, but I wondered later if the hot shower was included in the tour. It's recommended to bring your own towels and amenities, but there was a hairdryer available.

Basically, there was one staff member per group, so they seemed busy with explanations, photo-taking, and escorting. However, the staff member was friendly and provided various explanations while guiding us, which made me very satisfied. It was my first time doing SAP, and I had a great time. The tour duration was long, which was very satisfying, but I thought children might get a bit bored or tired. They take group photos, which is a nice keepsake, but since there was only one staff member, the number of photos was limited.

I was informed the day before that the snorkeling location might change, and I could choose whether to participate. The sea was very beautiful, with few waves, making it easy to swim. I had done snorkeling several times before, but my partner was participating for the first time. They could join until the end since they could swim, but I thought it might be scary for those who aren't good swimmers or for anyone who might feel unwell during the activity. The staff generally checks on everyone, but they were at the front escorting us. However, if someone fell behind or if there was a delay, it could lead to panic, especially since there was no immediate ferry back to shore in case of an emergency. Most of the participants in our group were in their 20s and physically fit, so perhaps the staff didn't worry too much. Still, I think it would be good to have a bit more consideration since there was only one staff member.

I am very satisfied with the price and the tour content, and I was able to enjoy Ishigaki Island. There are various courses available, including half-day options, so I definitely recommend considering them.

午前中にマングローブでのSAP、午後はスタッフの方のおすすめの海でシュノーケルをしました！

一日のコースでしたが休憩時間もあり、時間に終われる感覚は無かったのでよかったです
天気が悪く青の洞窟でのシュノーケルが海へ変更になりましたが満足でした。

集合場所が分かりやすかったのと前日でも予約可能だったので助かりました、午前と午後のツアーで担当のスタッフの方が違いました。
市街地であればホテルまで迎えにきてくれるため、帰ります海に入ったまま帰ることもできるので便利です。私たちはシャワールームを利用させてもらいました。ターミナルより徒歩5分くらいの場所です、バスで目的地まだ送ってもらいました。特に説明はなかったので張り紙をみたところ1人500円の表示がありました。その際は支払いをしましたが、ツアー内に温水シャワーも含まれていた？かもと終わってから思いました。タオルやアメニティはないため持参をオススメします。ドライヤーはありました。

基本的に1グループにスタッフが1人だったので説明〜写真撮影、エスコートと忙しそうな印象を受けました。
しがし、スタッフの方は感じのよく色んな説明をしながらガイドをしてくれてとても満足しました。
初めてのSAPでしたが、楽しむことができました。ツアー時間も長く大満足、子供などはちょっと飽きてしまう？疲れてしまうかなと思いました。
グループごとに写真も撮ってくれるため記念になります。しかしスタッフは1人なので写真の枚数は限られます。

シュノーケルは事前に場所が変更になることを前日に教えていただき、参加するかを選べます。
海はとても綺麗で波も少なく泳ぎやすかったです
私は何度かシュノーケルをしていましたが、一緒に参加したパートナーは初めてでした。泳げないわけではないので最後まで参加することができましが、
泳ぎが得意ではない方や途中で体調不良を起こしてしまった人が居た場合怖いと思いました。
基本的にスタッフさんは声をかけてくれますが、1番前で道をエスコートしてくれています。しかし、後ろの様子や遅れが出た場合、何かあった際にすぐに陸地は戻れないパニックが生じた際に戻るフェリーがないなど万が一を考えた場合生命危機が高いのではないかと思いました。
私たちが参加したグループの方はほとんどが20代で体力もあり泳ぐことが出来ていたのでスタッフさんもそこまで気にかけなかったのかとも思います。しかし、スタッフさんが1人だからこそもう少し配慮があってもいいかと思いました。

値段とツアー内容、石垣島を楽しむことができてとても満足しています。半日コースなどニーズに合わせて様々なコースがあるのでぜひ検討してみてください
