All Reviews for Okinawa Outdoor Activities

I was glad to see several coconut crabs that I was hoping to see! The guide also taught us various things about the island along the way, making it a meaningful experience. Thank you very much.

However, I felt sad about the amount of trash left on the path leading to the sandy beach during the night tour. Of course, those who litter are the most to blame! But if possible, I would appreciate it if the tour company could also engage in cleaning activities. If the area were cleaner, I think participants would enjoy it even more. Alternatively, I think it would be great to hold a cleanup event.

お目当てのヤシガニが何匹か見れたのでよかったです！
ガイドさんも道中、島について色々教えてくださり有意義な時間でした。
ありがとうございました。

ただ、ナイトツアーをした、砂浜に続く道に捨ててあるゴミの多さに悲しくなりました。もちろん捨てる人が一番悪いです！でももし可能であればツアー会社の方々も清掃活動などしていただければと思いました。きれいなら、参加者はもっと楽しめると思います。もしくは、クリーンアップイベントを開催するなども良いと思いました。

Due to the rain in the evening, the stargazing tour was canceled. The night tour for wildlife observation also had to turn back midway because the trail was muddy. I understand it couldn't be helped, but it was quite disappointing in many ways. However, I was very satisfied because I was able to see the forest in full bloom with the Sagarihana. The guide's efforts to keep the mood up and his stories were also entertaining.

夕方からの雨のため、星空ツアーが中止となった。野生動物観察のナイトツアーも、トレイルがぬかるんでいて途中で引き返し。　仕方ないと思うけれど、いろいろ残念だった。しかし、一番見たかったサガリバナ満開の森は見ることができたので大満足。ガイドのお兄さんの盛り上げようとする頑張りとお話も面白かった。

The weather was nice, so we took photos with the Milky Way as the background. I think we created something great with the posing instructions provided. The next day, I received the photo data, and it turned out even better than I expected, which really moved me ⭐️

The person who took the photos was also very kind and helped me out with a trouble on my end, for which I am truly grateful.

I plan to use this service again if the opportunity arises! Thank you!

天気がよかったのもあり天の川を背景に撮影していただきました。
ポージングも指示していただき、良い物ができたと思います。
翌日写真のデータが届きましたが予想以上に良い仕上がりになっておりとても感動しました⭐️

撮影していただいた方もとても良い方で、
こちら都合のトラブルに対して全力で助けてくださり、感謝しかありません

また機会があったら利用しようと思います！
ありがとうございました！

I was able to catch a glimpse of the coconut crab in the crevices of the rocks. Since it's wild/nature, I understand that it's not guaranteed. However, I felt it would have been nice to have some explanations with photos for those who might not see them. During the stargazing, there wasn't much explanation about the visible stars, just comments like "It's beautiful," so I think having a knowledgeable guide would have increased satisfaction.

The light provided was weak and not very useful, which was disappointing. I think it should be checked in advance. Since we paid nearly 5,000 yen, I hoped for a tour that offered more than just luck in spotting wildlife.

岩場の隙間にいるヤシガニがかろうじて見れました。野生/自然相手なので仕方ないと思います。ただ見れなかった時用に写真などを使って説明があっても良いなと感じました。星空鑑賞では見えている星の説明は特になく、キレイですね〜くらいだったので専門知識のある方にガイドして頂けたら満足度も違ったと思います。
渡されたライトも光が弱く役に立たず残念でした。事前にチェックされた方が良いと思います。
5000円近く払っているので出会えるかどうかは運次第だけではなく、もうひと工夫のあるツアーであってほしかったです。

I was able to see coconut crabs, hermit crabs, stick insects, bats, land crabs, frogs, wild boars, and more.

Although I couldn't see their faces as they were sleeping and completely still, I was able to see a Ryukyu Scops Owl at a very close distance. It seemed to be a very rare case, and it became a wonderful experience.

The starry sky was incredibly beautiful, unlike anything you can see in the city, and I was able to see shooting stars.

During the tour, there were some areas with uneven footing, but the guide was very attentive and kept reminding us to be careful, so I felt safe walking.

Additionally, I enjoyed a fun time as the guide shared recommendations for local shops and talked about the area!

ヤシガニ、ヤドカリ、ナナフシ、コウモリ、オカガニ、カエル、イノシシ等見ることができました。

眠っていたのか、顔は見れず、微動だにしない状態でしたが
かなり至近距離でリュウキュウコノハズクも見ることが出来ました。
激レアなケースだったようで
とても良い体験になりました。

星空も、都会では見れないぐらい綺麗で、流れ星を見ることができました。

ツアー中は少し足場の悪いところもありましたが
ガイドのお兄さんがまめに注意喚起してくれたので安心して歩けました。

その他、おすすめのお店や、地元の話をしていただき、楽しい時間を過ごせました！

It was truly amazing, and the timing was perfect, so I was able to get beautiful photos. I'm glad I entrusted everything to them; it became a lifelong memory.

本当にすごいですタイミングも良かったので綺麗にとっていただきましたー。全てお任せしてよかったです一生の思い出になりました

I participated with my elderly parents. It was helpful that the tour started and ended in Naha City. I was glad to finally visit Cape Hedo and Daichi Forest, and to meet Kuta-kun, the Okinawa rail! The tour was the day after the rainy season ended, so it was sunny and hot, but the bus travel made it comfortable!

高齢の両親と参加しました。
那覇市内発着が助かりました。
一度行ってみたかった辺戸岬や大石林山、ヤンバルクイナのクータ君にも会えて良かったです！
梅雨明けの次の日にツアーだったので晴天で暑かったけどバス移動なのでらくちんでした！

I was thrilled to have someone take photos that I couldn't capture myself! The staff was kind, which was great. However, the meeting place is dark and narrow, so those who are not used to driving rental cars should be careful. The parking situation might vary by location, but it could be difficult during busy times. Even if the weather doesn't cooperate after several years of reservations, if it's not good on the day, there might be an opportunity to reschedule for the next day if there’s availability, so I recommend booking your reservation early in your stay. They send the data via LINE, which is very helpful. Overall, I was just so happy!

自撮りでは、撮れない写真撮ってもらって感激！
スタッフさんも親切で、良かったです。
ただ、待合せ場所迄は、暗くて狭いのでレンタカーで慣れて無い人は気を付けて下さいね。
駐車場は、場所によると思うけど混雑時は、大変かも？
何年か予約しても天候に恵まれず、ダメだったけど当日駄目でも、空いてれば翌日とか出来る場合があるから、滞在の早い日にちに予約日を入れるのをオススメ。
LINEでデータを送ってくれるので、有難いです。
とにかく嬉しかったです❢

The staff were kind, and the children were very happy, saying, "The big brother was so nice!" The activities were in the order of snorkeling, barbecue, and banana snorkeling, but there was plenty of free time in between, allowing us to fully enjoy swimming in the sea. The barbecue lunch exceeded our expectations. It had been a while since our last trip, but we made great memories. I would like to use this service again if the opportunity arises.

スタッフの方々が親切で、子供たちも「お兄さん優しかったなー」と大変喜んでいました。シュノーケリング→バーベキュー→バナナシュノーケリングの順でしたが、間の自由時間もたっぷりあって、海水浴も満喫できました。昼食のバーベキューも期待以上でした。久しぶりの旅行でしたが、良い思い出ができました。また機会があれば利用したいと思います。

We have been wanting to take starry sky photos for a long time, and we finally fulfilled that wish in Miyako Island for our 60th birthday celebration. Although I felt a bit embarrassed among the younger crowd, I decided to go for it and made a reservation! On the day of the shoot, we gathered at Musunun Beach. When I mentioned the occasion, they subtly included "60" with a pen light. When it started to rain, they reassured us that it would clear up soon, which made me feel really at ease while taking photos. And the angel wings! It was truly moving! They took wonderful starry sky photos not only for the younger crowd but also for people our age. I highly recommend it! The blue sky of Miyako Island, the transparent cobalt blue sea, and the starry sky are all amazing! Thank you to the staff for creating such wonderful memories!

夫婦揃って還暦祝い以前より星空フォトが撮りたくて今回宮古島で念願叶いました若者が多い中若干恥ずかしく思っていましたが思い切って予約❣️当日ムスヌン浜に集合還暦の事を伝えるとペンライトで60とさりげなく入れてくださったり途中雨が降ってきたら待機してすぐ晴れますよと説明してくださりほんと安心して写真を撮ることができましたなんと言っても天使の羽根❣️感動ものです❣️若者はもちろん私たちのような年齢層でもステキな星空フォトを撮って下さいました❣️是非おススメです宮古島の青い空透き通るコバルトブルーの海そして満点の星空❣️おススメです❣️お兄さんありがとうございました素晴らしい思い出ができました❣️

The two people who were fighting proceeded with the shoot without exchanging any words. The stars were big and beautiful, and I wanted to stay in that place forever. I wished I could have admired it a little longer. The photos turned out beautifully, and I am very satisfied. Thank you very much.

喧嘩中の2人が撮影中言葉を交わすことなく撮影にのぞみました。
星が大きくて綺麗でずっとあの場所にいたかった。もう少し眺めてたかったです。写真が綺麗にできていてとても満足です。ありがとうございました。

It was better than I had expected. Especially the trekking. I am satisfied. The local guide at Yanbaru National Park was also attentive and good.

考えていた以上によかった。
とくにトレッキング。満足してます。
やんばる国定公園での現地ガイドも丁寧で良かったです。

The content itself is not bad. They distributed some souvenir-like items, but I didn't expect them and they are unnecessary. Unnecessary costs reflect in the price, so they should stop that. However, overall, I think it's reasonable.

内容自体悪くない。　なんかおみやげ的なものを配布されたが、期待していないし不要。無駄なコストは価格に反映するので辞めるべき。
　でも、総合的にリーゾナブルだと思う。

Thanks to our guide, we were able to explore the night forest with peace of mind and see various unique creatures of Miyako Island. It was my first experience moving through a completely dark forest with only a flashlight, and I felt excited and thrilled from start to finish. The explanations about all the creatures were easy to understand, making it a tour that everyone, from children to adults, could genuinely enjoy. Additionally, we were blessed with good weather and were able to gaze at the beautiful starry sky. I would love to participate again. Thank you very much.

　ガイドさんの引率によって安心して夜の森を散策でき、様々な宮古島特有の生物を見ることができました。
真っ暗な森の中を懐中電灯だけで進むという体験は初めてで、最初から最後までドキドキ・わくわくでした。
すべての生物についてわかりやすく説明もしていただき、子供から大人まで心から楽しむことのできる内容で大満足のツアーでした。
また、天気にも恵まれきれいな星空を眺めることもできました。
また参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

It was a photoshoot at Musunun Beach. The weather on the day was clear, and it was a wonderful location where we could see the Milky Way.

I hadn't thought of any special poses for the shoot, but the staff member suggested various poses, and thanks to the clear weather, we were able to take fantastic photos. I am very satisfied.

Additionally, they provided recommendations for spots and gourmet options that fit our stay schedule, and I truly feel it was a great decision to request the photoshoot.

I highly recommend it to anyone considering a starry sky photo.

Thank you very much.

ムスヌン浜での撮影でした。
当日の天気は快晴で、天の川も見える素晴らしいロケーションでの撮影でした。
撮影にあたって特別なポーズなど考えてはいませんでしたが、担当のお兄さんがいろんなポーズを提案してくれた結果、快晴であったこともあり素晴らしい写真が取れました。満足しています。

また、私たちの滞在予定に併せておすすめスポットやグルメまで紹介いただき、撮影をお願いして本当によかったと思います。

星空フォトを検討されている方はぜひおすすめします。

ありがとうございました。

The starry sky was truly amazing!! They suggested various poses for the photos, and I got the best pictures!! The props were cute too♪ They taught me about the constellations, which was fun☆彡 I thought I would like to request them again next time(^^)

星空が本当にすごかった！！
撮影も色々ポーズを提案していただき、最高の写真を撮っていただきました！！
小道具も可愛かったです♪
星座も教えていただき楽しかったです☆彡
また次回もお願いしたいなぁ〜と思いました(^^)

The weather was favorable, and I was able to see the stars beautifully, even the Milky Way. The shooting went smoothly, and I was truly surprised to receive the delivery the next day. Thank you very much.

天候にも恵まれ、天の川まで星を綺麗に見ることができました。
撮影もスムーズで、翌日にご納品いただいたのは本当に驚きました。
ありがとうございます。

By late June, the Milky Way started to become visible, and I was able to capture it in the best possible situation. They wholeheartedly accepted my requests, and I created wonderful memories.

6月下旬にもなり天の川が見え始めたとの事で最高のシュチュエーションで撮影して頂きました。
こちらの要望にも心より引き受けてくださり最高の思い出が出来ました。

The first day was canceled due to bad weather, but they rescheduled for the next day. We saw beautiful stars, enjoyed wonderful music, and took many photos with a lovely guide, making it the best trip to Miyako Island. The photos turned out beautifully, and I am very satisfied! I would love to request this again when I come back to Miyako Island! Thank you so much for the truly wonderful memories.

1日目は天候も悪く中止になってしまい、次の日に改めて変更してくださいました。とても綺麗な星に素敵な音楽、素敵なお兄さんに写真をたくさん撮っていだき、最高の宮古島旅行となりました。写真もとても綺麗で大満足です！また宮古島に来た時はお願いしたいです！本当に本当に素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。

Anyway!
It was explosively fun, even while moving around, haha!
The guide was very kind, and we had a time filled with smiles from start to finish!
Thank you so much! ^_^
I was able to encounter two coconut crabs that I had longed to see, along with crabs, hermit crabs, a scorpion-like creature, fireflies, and even wild boars from the car!
Also, I was worried that we might not see the stars because of the cloudy sky, but I was moved by the stunning starry sky!
I was sweating and soaking wet, but...
Thank you for such a wonderful time! ^_^

とにかく！
移動中も含め、爆発的に楽しかったです笑！
ガイドのお兄さんもとても親切で、終始笑顔の絶えない時間となりました！
ありがとうございました^_^
念願のヤシガニに2匹も出逢え、カニ、ヤドカリ、サソリもどき、ホタル、、更には車中からイノシシにも遭遇！！
また、曇り空だから星が見えるかなぁと心配していましたが、満点の星空にも感動致しました！
汗、ビッショビッショでしたが、、
本当に楽しい時間をありがとうございました^_^

This time, I asked Monsoon again. The female guide was perfect in every way. Her knowledge of plants and animals was wonderful.

I remember being in the mangroves in the morning. Even when there were troubles along the way, she responded flexibly.

Also, during the final transfer, there was an endangered turtle lying on the road, and she rescued it and showed it to me for a moment. It was a valuable experience. I already love Iriomote Island. Thank you again.

今回もモンスーンさんに
お願いしました。
女性のガイドさんがもう全てにおいて
完璧でございました。
植物や動物の知識は素晴らしかったです。

朝のマングローブの中に入れたのが
思い出に残っています。
途中でトラブルがあっても
臨機応変に対応して頂きました。

また、最後の送迎の時に
絶滅危惧種のカメちゃんが
道に横たわっていて
救助して私に少しだけみせて頂きました。
貴重な体験でした。
もう西表島大好きです。
またよろしくお願いします。

The guide, Teru, was amazing! Despite booking the tour at 5 PM on the same day, I was thrilled to see a lizard, coconut crab, habu snake, owl, and bat! The starry sky was also very beautiful, and I definitely want to participate again. Thank you!

ガイドのテルさん最高でした！当日の17時にツアーを予約したにもかかわらず、トカゲ、ヤシガニ、ハブ、フクロウ、コウモリまで見られて大感激！
星空もとても綺麗で是非また参加したいです。ありがとうございました！

It was my first jungle experience, and it was thrilling! I got to see everything like frogs, snakes, crabs, and coconut crabs! The coconut crabs were amazing. The starry sky was beautiful too!

初ジャングル★ドキドキでしたがカエル、ハブ、カニ、ヤシガニみたいもの全部見れました！！
ヤシガニ感動です。　
星空もきれいに見えました★★

I had previously participated in a stargazing tour in Ishigaki, where I was able to see an unbelievable number of stars, which left me deeply moved. That's why I signed up for this tour as well.

However, on the day of the tour, it was quite cloudy, and I was anxious about whether we would be able to see anything. With the full moon approaching, it illuminated the night sky so brightly that only a few stars were visible. I had hoped that as we ventured further, we might see more stars, but it was actually more disappointing than looking up at the night sky in the city, where you can see more stars. I was very disappointed. The tour guide mentioned that it was lucky we were able to operate today since it had been raining until the day before, but for those of us who were looking forward to the starry sky, it felt like we were just cruising without seeing any stars at all, which was not enjoyable at all.

I also felt that they must have known about the moon's condition, so I honestly wished they had explained the situation before we departed. The shamisen performance was not something I could call good either.

Next time, I think I will pay more attention to the timing and conditions before participating.

以前も石垣で星空を見るツアーに参加したことがありその際は信じられないほどの星を見ることが出来感動した為今回もツアーを申し込みました。
今回のツアーの当日はかなり曇りで見えるのか不安な中での出発となりましたが、満月が近い為月が煌々と夜空を照らしており、星数はまばらに見えるだけ。。奥まで進めば少しは見えるのかと期待しましたが都内で見上げる夜空の方が星が見えるんじゃないかという状況で非常にがっかりしました。前日まで雨で運航が出来なかったからでしょうか、今日運航出来たのはラッキーですと添乗員さんに言われましたが、星空を期待していたこちらとしては星空が全く見えない中ただクルージングしている状況でしたので、全然楽しくなかったです。月の状態も絶対わかっていたはずなので、出発前に状況を説明して頂きたかったというのが本音でした。
三味線もお世辞にも上手と言えませんでした。。
次回は参加する時期など参加する側もしっかり見て参加しようと思います。

I originally planned to participate only in canyoning, but I suddenly added snorkeling in the afternoon! It was so much fun jumping in from various spots and sliding down the river like a waterslide! When I requested to have the scenery photographed, they kindly took pictures for me! I received about 140 photos and I'm very satisfied!

Also, the staff were very kind and easy to talk to, which made me feel that just spending the morning on Iriomote Island was not enough, so I quickly signed up for an additional plan in the afternoon! Even though it was a last-minute addition, they responded very politely and promptly, which was really great! Next time, I would like to sign up for a different plan, like canoeing! 😊

キャニオニングだけの参加予定でしたが、急遽午後にシュノーケルも追加させていただきました！
色んなところから飛び込んだり、川の流れを滑り台のように降りてとても楽しかったです！風景も撮って欲しいとリクエストしたら心良く撮っていただけました！！届いた写真は140枚ほどでとても満足です！
また、スタッフの方がとても優しく気兼ねなくお話しできたので、西表島が午前中だけというのが物足りなく感じ急遽午後にも追加プランを申し込みました！急遽の追加なのにとても丁寧かつ迅速に対応していただき本当に良かったです！次回はカヌーなどの別プランを申し込みたいです☺️

My impression after finishing the tour is that it would be difficult to cover such a course in one day on my own. I didn't have to drive, I could listen to the guide's announcements at various points, there were appropriate bathroom breaks, I could eat a delicious lunch without needing a reservation, and I could sleep if I felt drowsy. It was a very fulfilling tour. Thanks to the guide's thoughtfulness, I had a great time. I also felt comfortable due to the driver's safe driving. It was a very good tour. I highly recommend it.

ツアーを終えての感想は、個人でこれだけのコースを一日で回るのは困難だと思いました。
運転する必要がなく、随所でアナウンスガイドが聞けて、適切なトイレ休憩もあり、美味しい昼食を予約せずにすぐに食べられて、眠くなったら寝られる。とても充実したツアーでした。ガイドさんの心配りで大変楽しく過ごすことができました。また運転手さんの安全運転のおかげで気分よく過ごせました。とてもよいツアーです。オススメします。

In early June, the weather was not favorable, and stargazing was not possible. The main focus was on a nature observation tour, where we were able to see coconut crabs.

Due to the stargazing being canceled, the event lacked excitement, and the light rain made it a bit disappointing, especially with the "raincoat" attire. It's not the organizer's fault, but it would have been even better if there had been alternative events.

6月上旬で、気候に恵まれず、
　星はNGでした。
　自然観察ツアーが主体で、椰子ガニなどを見ることができました。

　星がNGのため、イベントが盛り上がらず、
　小雨も有「かっぱ姿」のため、少々残念でした。
　主催者の問題ではありませんが、、
　(ただ、代替イベントもあるとさらにGoodでは？）

We participated as a family with our 0-year-old child. During our trip, there were many clouds, and we were finally able to take photos on the third day. The person in charge of the camera was very kind, explaining how to take the photos and teaching us about constellations. However, I felt that those who joined later were quite strict about poses and didn't consider that we had small children. It's impossible to tell a fussy child, "Let's take the photo when you calm down." They just get more bored and fussy. (I gently mentioned it, but it seemed they didn't hear me.) I am very satisfied with the finished photos. Thank you very much.

0歳児連れ、家族で参加させていただきました。
旅行中雲が多く、3日目にやっと撮っていただくことができました。
カメラを担当してくださった方は撮り方を説明してくださったり、星座について教えてくださったりと、とても親切でした。
ただ、途中から来た方はポーズに厳しいばかりで小さい子がいることをあまり考慮してくださらなかったように思います。
グズる子どもに「落ち着いてから撮りましょう」は無理です。ますます飽きてグズってしまいます。（やんわり言ったのですが、聞こえてなかったようで）
写真の仕上がりにはとても満足しています。
ありがとうございました。

In the northern part of Yanbaru, I participated in my first solo bus tour. On the day of the tour, it was cloudy with occasional rain, and I was a bit anxious, but the cheerful greeting from the tour guide immediately put me at ease. The information I heard through the earphones was also educational. Thanks to the guide's flexible responses, I was able to visit the mangrove walkway, see the stunning view of Route 58 and Daishi Forest, enjoy lunch (which was a heavy downpour at that moment), visit Cape Hedo (a breathtaking view), and at Daishi Forest, I could admire the strange rocks, forest, and sea, managing to complete all the courses even though I wasn't very confident on my feet.

I was able to see the Yanbaru Kuina, and I realized that it was great to efficiently explore and learn through this tour rather than going without any knowledge. By the way, I had a great time chatting at the local sweets shop at the roadside station we stopped at (the tart and cream puffs were the best).

Next time, I want to stay in the northern area and take my time to revisit the places on my own. I must mention the tour guide, YK! Even though she must have been more tired than I was after two consecutive tours, she kept the atmosphere bright and lively throughout. What a professional! Her parting words, "Let's meet again someday!" really touched me.

K-san, I would love to see you again! Thank you very much.

やんばる北部、初の独りバスツアーで、当日は曇り空ぽつぽつ雨の中不安ながらの参加でしたが、最初の添乗員さんの底抜けに明るいご挨拶に心も解れ、イヤホンで所々聞く案内も勉強になりました。添乗員さんの臨機応変なご対応で、マングローブの遊歩道、ルート58と大石林山のツーショット、お昼ごはん(ここだけ大雨)、辺戸岬(絶景)、そして大石林山では奇岩、森林、海を眺めながら、足に自信がない私でも全てのコースを廻ることができました。
ヤンバルクイナも見られたし、何も知らないで行くより先ずこちらのツアーで効率よく廻って学べたのは良いなと。
そうそう、最後立ち寄った道の駅の地元のスイーツ屋さんでお話も出来て(タルト、シュークリーム最高)楽しかったです。
次回は北部に宿をとり、ゆっくり自分の足で復習に廻りたいと思いました。
特筆は、添乗員さんのYKさん！2連続の添乗で私よりも疲れていらっしゃるでしょうに、通して明るく元気に盛り上げてくださり、なんてprofessional！最後降車時の『またいつか会いましょうね～！』の一言は染みました。
K子さん、また是非お会いしたいです！
ありがとうございました。

Unfortunately, we couldn't see the starry sky due to the rain. However, the excitement of being in a night jungle, which I usually don't visit, was overwhelming! I couldn't see a wildcat, but I was very satisfied to see rare plants and animals! I want to go again!

あいにくの雨のため星空を見ることはできませんでした。
しかし、普段は行くことのないような
夜のジャングルはわくわくが止まりません！
ヤマネコは流石に見ることができませんでしたが！珍しい動植物を見ることができ大満足！
また行きたいです！
