All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I joined the tour because I wanted to visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium and Kouri Island. I stayed in Naha City and, since I didn't have a rental car, it was great to be able to visit various facilities. However, it was a shame that I couldn't take my time to enjoy everything due to being pressed for time. In particular, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium has a parking lot that is quite far away, so the time spent there was a bit shorter than I would have liked. Additionally, the group of Chinese tourists sitting behind me was very loud, which made it uncomfortable for the people I was with. At the beginning of the tour, the guide asked everyone to speak quietly, but perhaps because they didn't understand Japanese, they continued to be noisy.

美ら海水族館と古宇利島に行きたくて参加しました。
那覇市内に宿泊、レンタカーなしだった為、色々な施設に行けて良かったです。
ただ、時間に追われてゆっくり見れなかったのは残念でした。
特に美ら海水族館は駐車場から遠い為、滞在時間はもう少し短いです。
また、後ろに座っていた中国人の集団がとてもうるさくて、一緒に参加した人に嫌な思いをさせてしまいました。ツアーの最初にガイドさんが大きい声で話さないように言っていましたが、日本語が分からないせいかずっとうるさかったです。

It was amazing to be slowly transported to Yufu Island on a water buffalo. The lunch was delicious too. The mangroves were beautiful. The bus guide on Iriomote Island shared many interesting stories. I want to go again.

水牛の上でゆっくり由布島まで運んでくれて、最高でした。また昼食も美味しくて。マングローブも素敵でした。西表島内のバスガイドさんが面白い話をたくさんしてくれました。また行きたいです。

I thought it was quite a good deal at 4,700 yen for a half-day tour that included lunch. It was great to be able to efficiently explore places that are difficult to get around without a car. As for the meal... well, it was okay. I thought maybe something like soba instead of a hamburger would have been nice.

半日観光で昼食が付いて、4,700円でかなりお得だと思いました。
車がないと周るのが難しい所で効率良く観光でき、良かったです。
食事は…まあ、あんな感じかな。ハンバーグではなく、そばとかでも良いかな…とも思いました。

I usually don't get photographed, so I was really nervous. The path to the shooting location was completely dark, and I wondered if I would make it, but I arrived safely without getting lost and had some really beautiful photos taken. I was surprised to see not just my shadow but also my face and the color of my clothes in the pictures! My favorite photo is the one where the sea is shining.

普段撮影される事なんてないので、ガチガチに緊張してしまいました。
撮影場所までの道のりは真っ暗で辿り着けるのかと思いましたが、無事迷わず行け、凄く綺麗な写真を撮って頂きました。
影で映るのかと思いきや、顔を服の色も写っていてビックリ‼️しました。
海が輝いて写っている写真がお気に入りです

I had a wonderful experience with Nao from PiPi, who was very friendly and provided transportation and guidance. Surprisingly, we are from the same hometown and even neighbors! We shared some local stories (laughs).

We started with snorkeling in the morning, followed by lunch, and then in the afternoon, we went to SAP. Since it was a weekday right after Golden Week, there were only a few participants, which made it a relaxing experience for me, and I was really happy about that (^^).

During snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle right away! Nao had been practicing free diving with a life jacket and had never been able to do it before, but during the tour, she managed to do it (≧∇≦). Both the sea turtle and Nao's diving were miraculous (≧∇≦). Thanks to Nao's thoughtfulness and her cute, friendly guidance, we had a cheerful tour and truly enjoyed the best activities in Miyako!*\(^o^)/*

I was also delighted that she sent us many individual photos. Thank you very much!♪

とっても気さくなPiPiの奈央さんの送迎&ガイドで
なんと、同じ出身地でご近所。
ローカルな話しも(笑)
午前シュノーケル→ランチ→午後SAP
GW明けの平日だったのもあり少人数で私的にはゆったり出来て嬉しかったです(^^)

シュノーケルで海亀にも即、会えた〜♡
奈央さんライフジャケット素潜りをず〜っと練習されてて1度も今まで出来たことなかったみたいで〜
それがツアー中、出来ちゃったんです（≧∇≦）
海亀も奈央さんの潜りもミラクルおきました（≧∇≦）
参加者への気遣いと気さくで可愛いガイド奈央さんのおかげで、和気藹々としたツアー本当に最幸な宮古のアクティビティを楽しめました*\(^o^)/*
写真も個別に沢山送って下さって嬉しい〜
ありがとうございました♪

It's an attractive course.
I was satisfied.
The beauty and tranquility of the mangrove forest.
The guide's enjoyable explanations were soothing to my heart.
Relaxing on the water buffalo cart on Yubu Island, the poignant performance of the sanshin remains in my heart.
Strolling around Yubu Island and the lunch were also delicious.
I recommend this course.

魅力的なコースです。
満足しました。
マングローブ林のみどりの美しさと静寂。
ガイドさんの楽しい説明。心が癒されました。水牛車でのんびり由布島は、三線な哀愁に満ちた演奏、心に残ります。
由布島での散策、そして昼食もおいしかった。
お勧めのコースです。

I used this during Golden Week.
I applied for a 4-year-old ticket to secure a seat since I was traveling with a 3-year-old. It was the right choice because the travel time was relatively long.

Since it was my husband and child's first time in Okinawa, we booked this tour to efficiently visit the tourist spots. It turned out to be a great decision.
As expected, the stay time at each tourist spot is relatively short (especially for those with children), so I recommend it for people visiting Okinawa for the first time or those who haven't been in a while.

Next time I travel to Okinawa, I would like to explore the Churaumi Aquarium and Pineapple Park at a more leisurely pace.

GWに利用しました。
3歳児が一緒でしたが席を確保するため、4歳児で申し込みました。
移動時間が割と長いので正解でした。

夫と子供が初めての沖縄だったので、観光地を効率よく回れるこのツアーを申し込みました。
結果大正解でした。
当たり前ですが１つ１つの観光地の滞在時間は比較的短いので（特に子連れには・・）、初めて沖縄に来るor久しぶりの沖縄、という人におすすめです。

次回沖縄旅行する際には、美ら海水族館とパイナップルパークをもう少しゆっくり観光したいなと思いました。

I participated in the tour for the purpose of visiting Oishi Forest and the Okinawa Rail, and I was completely satisfied with everything! At the Mangrove Park, the local guide kindly provided detailed explanations, which were very interesting and enjoyable. Kuta, the Okinawa Rail, was very clever and adorable. It made me think about coexistence with wildlife. Oishi Forest was surrounded by nature, and it felt refreshing! I only walked one course, but since I had extra time, I thought maybe I should have done two courses. Thank you to the tour guide for the clear and smooth guidance, and to the driver for their excellent driving (I didn't have to worry about getting motion sickness even on the mountain roads)!

大石林山とヤンバルクイナが目的で参加したツアーでしたが、全て大満足でした！
ヒルギ公園では現地ガイドさんが親切に詳しく説明してくださりとても興味深く楽しかったです。
ヤンバルクイナのクー太くんはとても賢く愛らしかった。野生動物との共存について考えました。
大石林山は自然に囲まれさわやかな気分になりました！1コースだけ歩きましたが、時間が余ってしまったので2コース行けばよかったかな。
ハキハキとスムーズな案内をしてくれた添乗員さん、運転上手な運転手さん（山中でも揺れることなく酔う心配がなかったです）、ありがとうございました！

The bridge to Kouri Island is very long, and right after crossing it, the bus stopped for sightseeing. The weather was cloudy, and it wasn't as beautiful as the last time I visited. I saw the whale shark at the Churaumi Aquarium, which was very soothing. Finally, I went to American Village. The sunset was very beautiful, and there were various shops, making it quite spacious.

古宇利島へ渡る橋はとても長く
渡りきってすぐの所でバスが停車し観光をした。
天気が曇りで前回来た時程綺麗ではなかった。
美ら海水族館のジンベイザメを見て、癒しをもらった。
最後にアメリカンヴィレッジへ。
夕焼けがとても綺麗で、いろいろなお店が出店していて
とても広かった。

The Yanbaru region was very far from Naha.
I walked through the mangrove forest,
and from Cape Hedo, the northernmost point of Okinawa, I could see Yoron Island.
Mount Oishi felt like a light trek,
and I was a bit tired.

ヤンバル地方は、那覇からとても遠かった。
マングローブ林を散策し、
沖縄最北端の辺戸岬からは与論島が見えた。
大石林山は、軽いトレッキングのようで
少し疲れた。

In the morning, I experienced stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) at Ingyamarine Garden, where I could feel the beautiful Miyako Blue. The waves were calm, making it a great spot for beginners to enjoy SUP! In the afternoon, we went snorkeling at Shigira Beach, and I also enjoyed a stylish lunch in the Shigira area. We visited a spot known for a high chance of seeing sea turtles, and indeed, we saw them! Thank you for taking such wonderful photos with the sea turtles!

午前中は宮古ブルーを感じられるインギャーマリンガーデンにてSUPを体験しましたが、波も穏やかで初めてでもSUPを楽しめるとてもいいスポットだと思います！午後のシュノーケリングはシギラビーチだったのでシギラエリアでオシャレランチも楽しめました♪高確率でウミガメさんに会えると言われるスポットに行きましたがちゃんと、ウミガメさんいらっしゃいました＾＾ウミガメさんとの写真も素敵に撮っていただきありがとうございました！

I visited Ishigaki Island for the first time and participated in a tour. The weather was great, which made it very enjoyable. The tour was organized efficiently to cover the main points of the islands, and everything went very smoothly. I was able to learn about the charm of the Yaeyama Islands, so I would like to visit again and participate in other tours.

石垣島に初めて訪れ、参加しました。好天に恵まれとてもよかったです。ツアーは三島の主なポイントを効率よく見学できるようになっていて、とてもスムーズでした。八重山諸島の魅力を知ることができたので、また訪れて他のツアーに参加したいと思います。

Some areas are off-limits. "Seifa Utaki requires an additional fee of 300 yen."
The Eisa performance is wonderful. There is no announcement from the tour guide, so please check the showtimes in advance and make sure to see it.

一部立ち入り禁止になってます。「せいふぁうたきは別料金で300円必要｡」
エイサーは素晴らしいです。添乗員さんのアナウンスはないので事前にショーの時間を調べ是非見て下さい｡

We wanted to customize our sightseeing according to our preferences, so we booked a private taxi for a six-hour course from 9 AM to 3 PM. The taxi arrived at our hotel around 8:45 AM, and I communicated my sightseeing wishes, including Sefa Utaki, Okinawa World, and Shuri Castle, while leaving the rest to the driver. The driver was kind and attentive, guiding us so we could enjoy our time at each sightseeing spot. We also considered options like tour buses and rental cars, but booking a private taxi turned out to be the right choice for us. I would like to use a private taxi again for our next trip to Okinawa.

自分達に希望に合わせて観光をしたくて、am9時からpm3時までの六時間のコースを貸し切り。
8時45分頃宿泊ホテルにタクシー到着、女性ドライバーの方には私の観光希望である斎場御嶽、おきなわワールド、首里城などを伝え、周り方はお任せしますと。
ドライバーさんは、優しく気配りされ観光場所で自分達の時間配分で楽しめるようにガイドしてくれました。
観光バスやレンタカーなどでの選択肢も検討しましたが、今回貸し切りタクシーでの観光を予約して私たちには正解でした。次回の沖縄旅行でも貸し切りタクシーを利用したいです。

The plan was for two hours, but it ended in one hour.
I was sent back to the hotel without going to the place where the fireflies are.
I feel like I was scammed.

2時間の予定なのに、1時間で終了。
蛍の居る所にも行かずホテルに送られた。
詐欺に、あった気分です

I have stayed in Ishigaki Island for a total of about two weeks, and I have ridden around the island both clockwise and counterclockwise on a scooter, so I have a good understanding of the roads and information about Ishigaki Island. However, this time I signed up for a bus tour with my wife.

The highlight was the guide's storytelling. From 9 AM until just after 2 PM, he talked almost non-stop.

Moreover, he was always smiling and shared a wide range of deep topics, from "secret festivals" known only to locals to seasonal flowers and fruits. At the end, he played the sanshin and sang, making it a truly enjoyable memory.

I highly recommend this tour.

私は石垣島に合計２週間ほど滞在したことがあり、原付バイクで石垣島を右回りと左回りで周回したこともあり、ある程度石垣島の道と情報を知り得る立場ですが、今回妻と一緒にバスツアーに申し込みました。

最高だったのはガイドさんの話です。朝９時から終了の１４時過ぎまでほぼ途切れることなく、ずっと話してくれました。

しかもずっと笑顔で、地元の人しか知り得ない「秘祭」のことや、季節の花やフルーツの話まで幅広く深い話でした。最後には三線を弾きながら歌も歌ってくださり、本当に楽しい思い出になりました。

猛烈におすすめできるツアーです。

I was very satisfied with my visit to the tourist spots in northern Okinawa! In particular, I had enough time at the Churaumi Aquarium to take my time and buy souvenirs. I also got to see the Okinawa rail, and the guide's explanations were great!

沖縄北部の観光地をまわれたので、大満足でした！特に、ちゅらうみ水族館は、時間も十分あったので、ゆっくり見てお土産も買えました。ヤンバルクイナも見れましたし、ガイドさんの解説もよかったです！

I was anxious about snorkeling for the first time in decades, but with Matsuura's support, I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The sights were beyond my imagination; I swam with sea turtles and got to see clownfish up close, which was an emotional experience. They took many photos, and I find myself feeling moved again when I look back at them! I want to go back and meet Matsuura and the sea turtles again.

シュノーケリングは数十年振りで不安でしたが、松浦さんのサポートで安心して楽しめました。想像以上の光景で、念願の海亀と一緒に泳いだり、ニモを至近距離で観ることもでき、感動の連続でした。写真も沢山撮って頂いたので、後から見返しまた感動しています！また、松浦さんと海亀に会いに行きたいです。

I wanted to enjoy some beer this time and make the most of my limited time, so I requested airport transfers for three days. On the second day, I used a rental car only for the morning snorkeling, and for the rest, it was easy and convenient. They were flexible in accommodating changes to my schedule and my condition. The same person assisted me for all three days and shared local insights, including the history of Okinawa during the dollar era. I returned home thinking I would like to request their services again.

今回はビールが飲みたいのと限られている時間を有効に使いたいので
空港送迎から３日間お願いしました
中日　午前のシュノーケリング時のみレンタカーで
あとは楽々　体調や押したスケジュール変更にも臨機応変に対応していただきました
3日間とも同じ方で
地元のこと　ドル時代の沖縄や歴史も教えていただきました
またお願いしたいと思い帰ってきました

　

The guide provided a lot of explanations about the fish and even took pictures of sea cucumbers while diving! All the photos turned out great! Thank you!

ガイドさんがお魚の説明など沢山してくれたり、潜ってナマコを撮ってくれたりしました！
写真もいい写真ばかり！
ありがとうございました！

The water buffalo cart I had always dreamed of! The water buffalo slowly crossing the shallow sea was so adorable. It was a sunny day, and the breeze felt nice. The sanshin music we heard inside the cart was wonderful. The gelato on Yufu Island was also delicious. I ended up getting a second helping!

夢だった水牛車！ゆっくり浅瀬の海を渡る水牛がとても愛らしく。当日は晴れていて風も気持ち良かったです。牛車の中で聞く三線も素敵でした。由布島にあるジェラートも美味しかったです。おかわりしちゃいました！

If you don't rent a car, it might be good to try this◎
I think you can visit the main tourist spots with meals included.

On the day I went, the guide was a charming older gentleman with a great sense of humor, and he even played the sanshin during the trip. His singing voice was truly amazing…!

Also, at Kabira Bay, if you want to take a boat, it costs about 1,000 yen extra, but the view from the boat is incredibly beautiful, so I personally recommend going for it! If you're lucky, you might even see a sea turtle◎

レンタカー借りないなら利用してみると良いかもです◎
食事付きで主要な観光地はそこそこ回れると思います。

私が行った日はガイドさんが渋みのある素敵なおじ様で、話は面白いし道中三線も弾いて頂きました。何よりすんごい良い歌声やった…！

あと川平湾ではボートを希望すると別途1000円ほどかかりますが、ボートからの景色が凄く綺麗で個人的には乗ることをお勧めします！
運が良ければウミガメが見れるかも◎

I experienced stargazing photography for the first time, and the photographer was very friendly. They taught me a lot about Miyako Island, which was helpful for my travels.

I'm glad I could create wonderful memories with my family photos! Thank you very much!

初めて星空フォトを体験しましたが
カメラマンさんが気さくな方で
現地の宮古島の事もたくさん教えて
頂き旅の参考にもなりました(^^)

家族フォトで良い思い出を残せて良かったです！
ありがとうございました♪

I participated from Hokkaido!
There were many creatures that I can't see in Hokkaido!
Palm crabs, bats, large crabs, and rare crabs and spiders.
Everything was fresh!
We were blessed with good weather, and the starry sky was a healing experience!
(I recommend preparing your smartphone's night mode.)
The guide was kind and considerate of those around us, making it feel very friendly.
Thank you for such a valuable experience!

北海道からの参加です！
北海道では見れない生き物がたくさん！
ヤシガニやコウモリ　でかいカニや
珍しいカニ、クモ
新鮮でした！
天気にも恵まれ、満点の星は
癒しの時間でした！
（スマホのナイトモード準備推奨）
ガイドの方も周りへの気遣いもしながら優しく教えてくれ　親しみやすく感じました。
とても貴重な体験を
ありがとう！

They played stylish background music while efficiently taking photos! The starry sky was breathtaking, and we even saw shooting stars! After the shoot, they recommended sightseeing spots and delicious restaurants for the following days, and I appreciate the attentive service! I'm looking forward to receiving the photos!!

おしゃれなBGMを流しながら、手際よく撮影してくれました！圧巻の星空で、流星も見えました！撮影後は、翌日以降のおすすめ観光スポットや美味しいご飯屋さんを教えて頂き、手厚いサービスに感謝です！データを頂けるのを楽しみにしております！！

I was really relieved by the flexible response during the sudden change of the meeting place. I was able to see the beautiful ocean and adorable turtles, creating the best memories!!! I'm grateful to the photographer who took care of everything!! I definitely want to use this service again next time!!

急遽、集合場所変更で慌ただしくなった中、柔軟な対応をしてくださり、ホントに安心しました。
ステキな海と、可愛いカメ達にも会うことが出来て最高の思い出ができました！！！
色々とお世話をしてくださったカメラマンさんに感謝です！！次回も絶対に利用したいです！！

The Okinawa show, which is hard to see, and the long cave! I was also moved by the natural beauty of the Sefa Utaki and the sacred mountain, and the sea was truly beautiful!

なかなか見ることの出来ない沖縄のショーと、長い洞窟！また斎場御獄も自然と神の山に感動、さらに海が本当美しかったです！

It took about 30 minutes by car from the terminal. During the ride, our guide Gin-chan shared stories about the island and provided a fun tour, making the journey feel quick and enjoyable. When we arrived at the pitch-black jungle, we were each given a flashlight, and with excitement, we ventured into the jungle under Gin-chan's guidance. We encountered many coconut crabs, rare crabs, and spiders. It was incredibly fun. Although we didn't get to see the beautiful starry sky, I want to try again. The thrill of searching for creatures was exhilarating, and I had a blast. I highly recommend this experience! On the way back, we also encountered Ryukyu wild boars and frogs, which added to the value of the trip!

ターミナル集合から車で30分ぐらい移動。車中　ガイドさんの銀ちゃんが、ツアー案内から島の話から楽しい時間で飽きることも無くあっという間の移動でした。真っ暗なジャングルに着くと・・1人1人懐中電灯を渡されドキドキで銀ちゃんの案内の元ジャングル内へ突入。沢山のヤシガニ、珍しいカニ、蜘蛛・・との出会い。めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです。唯一素敵な星空には逢えませんでしたが、リベンジしたいです。生き物探しのワクワク　久々きゃーきゃーわーわーほんと楽しかったです。めちゃくちゃおすすめです♪帰り道　琉球いのししやかえるにも逢えてお得感満載でした♪

The staff was very accommodating, and especially the bus driver provided a thorough and friendly commentary on the history of Iriomote, its nature, and the current situation of depopulation, all while mixing in some jokes. The boat was large and comfortable.

スタッフの対応も良く、特にバスの運転手さんは西表の歴史、自然や今の過疎化の現状、冗談も交えて丁寧なうんてんとガイドでした。
船も大型で快適

If you're going to Ishigaki Island, I recommend this for those who want to efficiently explore the island. The guide and driver from Iriomote Island has a gentle tone and provides a very detailed explanation of Iriomote Island. The guide on the cruise also gave a great explanation about the mangroves.

Additionally, riding the water buffalo across the sea is not just about the ride; during the journey, they share stories about the water buffalo and Yubu Island, and even play the sanshin and sing, which is a lot of fun.

On Taketomi Island, I chose to go cycling. In 90 minutes, since I’m not good at reading maps, I was focused on visiting three famous spots, and it ended in no time.

せっかく石垣島へ行ったなら、効率よく島を巡りたい方にはお勧めです。
お迎え、西表島のガイド兼ドライバーさんの口調も穏やかで、とても細やかに西表島の説明をガイドをしてくれます。クルーズのガイドさんのマングローブの説明もよかったです。
また、海を渡る水牛もただ乗車するだけでなく、乗車の間に水牛や由布島の話し、三線を弾いて歌ってくれて大変楽しめます。
竹富島ではサイクリングを選択。90分では、地図を読むのが苦手だったため、有名なスポット3つを巡るのに必死で、あっという間に終わりました。
