All Reviews for Okinawa Outdoor Activities

Stargazing was beautiful, unlike back home. At the night safari, I couldn't find the coconut crab, but I enjoyed interacting with various creatures.

星空鑑賞、地元とは違い綺麗でした
ナイトサファリ、ヤシガニは見つかりませんでしたが、さまざまな生き物と触れ合えて楽しめました

I ended up having to pay a transportation fee of 3,000 yen without any prior explanation. Being told this in the hotel lobby on the day of arrival was quite troubling. This is a complete lack of communication. I'm very disappointed.

事前に説明の無い送迎料3000円を支払う羽目になりました。当日、ホテルのロビーで言われても、困ります。完全に説明不足です。大変がっかりです。

I think most of the people who participated in this tour were mainly interested in the Okinawa's Okiishi Forest, and not so much in the Churaumi Aquarium. If possible, I would like to have about 30 more minutes to explore Okiishi Forest at a more leisurely pace. I believe time adjustments can be made at the roadside station afterward, but what do you think?

It was great that we arrived at the Churaumi Aquarium just in time to see the dolphin show.

今回このツアーに参加したほとんどの方が大石林山目当てで美ら海水族館はそんなに興味がない方ばかりだと思います。出来ればもう少しゆっくり大石林山をまわれるようにあと30分ぐらい多めに取って欲しいです。時間調整はその後の道の駅でも出来るかと思いますが如何なものでしょうか？
美ら海水族館に着いてタイミング良くイルカショーが見れたのは良かったです。

This was my first time visiting the Miyako Islands. I came to visit a friend, but I was able to join a quick tour in between, and I could take some photos, which made for great memories! It was my first time seeing the Milky Way with my own eyes, and I think it was worth the price. It felt like being in a planetarium.

However, if the sky is cloudy, the tour gets canceled, so I would have appreciated getting the cancellation notice a bit earlier. The meeting place is a completely dark area with no lights (which is to be expected), so it's a good idea to have clear markers or bring a flashlight.

はじめて、宮古諸島に来島にしました。
友人訪問が目的で来たのですが、ちょっとした合間にサクッとツアーに参加できて、撮影ができたので、良い思い出になりました☆★
肉眼で天の川が見られたのは、はじめてで値段の割には、良いと思います。
プラネタリウムにいるような感覚です。

ただ、曇り空だとツアー自体が中止になるので、催行の連絡をもう少し早めにいただきたかったです。。
集合場所は、電気もまったくない暗～い場所（当たり前ですが）なので、
わかりやすい目印や懐中電灯を持っていくと良いです。

I often visit Okinawa, but I had never been to the northernmost point before. This time, I was able to enjoy the scenery slowly while taking the bus. It was great to visit tourist spots like Cape Hedo, Daichi Forest, and the Churaumi Aquarium.

沖縄にはよく来ていますが、最北端までは行ったことがありませんでした。
今回バスで、ゆっくりと景色を見ながら楽しむ事が出来ました。
辺戸岬・大石林山・美ら海水族館と観光スポットを回ることができたのも良かったです。

I participated with my uncle and aunt, and it became a wonderful memory. I recommended it to my friends! I would like to participate again.

おじさんおばさんで参加しましたが、とてもいい思い出になりました^_^
友人達にもお勧めしました！
また参加したいと思います。

I was looking forward to stargazing. On the day, I was happy that the weather was perfect, but when the staff who came to pick us up arrived, they first mentioned that due to the full moon, it would be difficult to see the stars, and that cancellation was possible. That was very considerate of them.

I wanted to explore at night, so of course, I decided to participate. It was a place I wouldn't have gone to on my own, as I thought it might be a bit scary, but the staff worked hard to show us various creatures, and we were able to enjoy seeing the night wildlife. Thank you very much.

星空鑑賞楽しみにしてました。
当日天気は最高と喜んでましたが、その日は、綺麗な満月の夜、お迎えに来て下さったスタッフの方、先ず一言、満月のため星を見るのは難しいので、キャンセルも可能ですとの説明を頂きました。凄ーく良心的です。
夜の探索もしたいので、もちろん参加しました。自分たちでは行かない、ちょっと怖いと思う場所でしたが、スタッフの方は、一生懸命私達に色々な生き物を見せようと動いて下さり楽しい夜の生き物を見ることが出来ました。
ありがとうございます。

I participated with three friends. Unfortunately, as forecasted, the weather was bad with a completely cloudy sky. I received a call saying that the forecast predicted it would clear up after 10 PM, so they changed the schedule and would call again around that time. It really did clear up, and I was surprised that the weather prediction was accurate! I was also amazed by the beautiful starry sky! We were able to take some wonderful photos. Thank you very much!

友人と４人で参加しました。
あいにく予報通り天気が悪く、一面の曇り空でした。
電話を頂き、22時過ぎに晴れてくる予報なのでその時間くらいにまた電話します。と予定変更してくれました。
本当に晴れて来て、天気が当たった事にもビックリ‼️一面の星空にもビックリ‼️
素敵な写真を撮って頂きました。
ありがとうございました❗️

I joined this tour because it goes to Cape Hedo by bus. I've been to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium before, but I had never been further north, so I was really looking forward to it. Once you get on the bus, it takes you to your destination, which is convenient! You can relax and enjoy the scenery from the window.

Cape Hedo is truly impressive. It was absolutely breathtaking. Since the time was a bit short, I wish we had about 20 more minutes. I wasn't very familiar with Daichi Forest, but I heard it's a power spot. It's quiet and very soothing. However, because it rained, the ground was slippery, so it's better to wear shoes that are less slippery.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, we had plenty of time, so I was able to enjoy both the dolphin show and the aquarium. The guide was easy to understand and very approachable, which was great. We had a little chat about Amuro-chan, which was fun!

バスツアーで辺戸岬まで行けるという事でこのツアーに参加しました。
美ら海水族館は行った事あるのですが、それより北側には行った事なかったので、とても楽しみにしてました。
一度バスに乗って仕舞えばあとは目的地まで連れて行ってくれるのでラクです！車窓の景色を見ながらのんびりできます。
辺戸岬は流石の迫力ですね。まさに絶景でした。時間が短めなので、あと20分位ほしかったかな。
大石林山はよく知らなかったのですが、パワースポットとの事。静かで癒されます。ただ、雨が降ったせいか足元が滑りやすかったので靴は滑りにくいものの方がいいです。
美ら海水族館は時間がたっぷりあったので、イルカショーと水族館両方とも楽しめました。
ガイドさんの案内もわかりやすく、話しやすい方でよかったです。少しだけですが安室ちゃんトーク楽しかったですw

Unfortunately, the weather was drizzly, so we couldn't see the starry sky, but the nighttime walk was enjoyable. It was fun to see coconut crabs and crabs on the beach, and I felt connected to nature. It was also great that they provided boots and lights, making it easy to join in.

　あいにくの小雨交じりの天気だったので星空を見ることは出来ませんでしたが暗闇の散策は楽しかったです。
ヤシガニや浜にいるカニなどが見れて自然を感じることもでき楽しかったです。
長靴にライトも貸していただけるので気軽に参加できるのも良かったです。

I participated because I wanted to see the stars. Even when the stars are not visible, you can still see other creatures, so the event doesn't get canceled. I think those who are only interested in stars should pay attention to the weather before participating. However, I couldn't find a tour that focused solely on stars.

First, we went to a place to see the creatures, and then we were supposed to see the stars there. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the stars, which was disappointing, but I was taken to another location where I was able to see beautiful stars, so I was glad about that.

星が、見たくて参加しました。
星が、見れないときも他の生物見るので、中止にはならないので、星だけしか興味の無い方は、天気などを気をつけて参加されたほうがいいと思います。ただ、星だけのツアーは、見当たりませんでした。
まず、生物を見るところに行き、そこで星を見るとのことでしたが、星は見れず、残念でしたが、もう1ヵ所星を見に連れて行ってもらい、素敵な星を見れて良かったです。

The open bus with a different perspective elevated my spirits. Although it was a windy day with cloudy skies, I was able to enjoy the beautiful stars and moonlight! I was also moved by the detailed explanations and the craters I observed through the telescope. The stars I watched, illuminated by the moonlight in a quiet place where only the rustling of sugarcane could be heard, were truly enchanting.

目線が違うオープンバスは気分が高まりました。この日は風が強く雲り空でしたが綺麗な星と月光浴を楽しむことができました！丁寧な説明と望遠鏡で観たクレーターにも感動。サトウキビのざわめきしかない静かな場所で月明かりに灯されながら観察した星はとても幻想的でした。

I didn't expect to see so many stars. The shooting stars were also very clear! The staff's explanations about the stars were wonderful. I want to participate again.

あんなにたくさんの星が見えると思ってませんでした。流れ星もハッキリと❗️
スタッフの方の星の説明も、とても素敵でした。また、参加したいって思います。

When you think of Ishigaki Island, you think of the blue sea! However, I heard that it was designated as a "Starlight Reserve" in 2018, so this time I went to Ishigaki Island to see the "starry sky."

During my trip, unfortunately, the weather was not great, and I was feeling down thinking I might leave without seeing a single star. But on the last day, I was able to see the sunset, which made me think, "Today might just work out!" and I eagerly joined the tour.

Since I had a rental car, I chose to drive to "Starlight Farm" myself. The location of Starlight Farm is a bit hard to find, but the directions provided on their website were very clear, so I was able to get there without getting lost.

The site is a place for stargazing, so naturally, it was completely dark. The parking area was also pitch black. However, the staff kindly guided us, which quickly alleviated my anxiety.

At Starlight Farm (it was so dark that I couldn't really see what the place looked like), each person had a reclining chair prepared for them, and the moment I sat down and looked up at the sky, I was overwhelmed with emotion. Ah, I’m so glad I came to Ishigaki! Ah, I’m so glad I signed up for this tour!! I’ve never seen a starry sky like this in Tokyo...!!

There was a one-drink service with tea, and after relaxing while gazing at the star-filled sky, the staff used a laser pointer to explain the stars and share romantic stories related to them. I was captivated by their explanations, and when I used the binoculars provided for each person, I could see the stars beautifully, even more clearly than with the naked eye.

Although the weather was a bit bad, I was still able to see a stunning starry sky and the Milky Way, which became a wonderful memory.

Next time, I want to participate again when the weather is better. The starry sky changes with the seasons, so I would love to experience the stars in a different season as well.

This is a tour I want to join again and again.

石垣島といえば、青い海！ですが、
2018年に、「星空保護区」に認定されたということを聞いて、
今回は、「星空」を見に石垣島へ行きました。

旅行期間中、あいにくの天気でせっかく石垣にきたのに、
星一つ見ずに帰るのか。。。と、テンションがダウンしていた
最後の日に、どうにか夕日がみられたので、
これは、「今日はなんとかいける！」と
楽しみにツアーに参加しました。

レンタカーがあったので、「星空ファーム」まで
自身で行くパターンを選びました。
星空ファームの場所は、少々わかりづらいのですが、
ホームページに記載されていた道案内がとても分かりやすかったので、
迷うことなく行くことができました。

現地は、星を見る場所なので、当然、真っ暗闇。
駐車するスペースも真っ暗闇。
ですが、スタッフの方が
親切に誘導してくださったので、一気に不安が吹き飛びます。

星空ファームでは（真っ暗だったので、実際はどんなところだったのかは、
わかりません。）、一人一人にリクライニングチェアが
準備されていて、もうそこに座って空を見上げた瞬間に、
一気に感動が押し寄せます。
あー、石垣にきてよかった！
あー、このツアーに申し込んでよかった！！
こんな星空、東京では見たことがない。。。。。！！

ワンドリンクのお茶のサービスがあり、
満点の星空をみて、ほっとくつろぎ、
スタッフの方が、レーザーポインターを使って
星の説明、星にまつわるロマンティックなお話をしてくださるので、
それに聞き入り、
（一人一人に用意された）双眼鏡を使うと、
肉眼でもきれいに見れる星が、
また更に、よーく美しく見ることができます。

少々お天気が悪かったのですが、
それでも今までに見たことのない満点の星,　天の川を
見ることができ、
とても素敵な思い出になりました。

でも、今度はもっと天気のいい時に
また、参加したいと思います。
季節によっても星空は違うので、
違う季節の星空にもぜひ参加してみたいです。

何度でも参加したくなるツアーです。

Although there were a few more clouds than I would have liked, it was a good tour at a reasonable price. Next time, I want to see a sky full of stars in the summer.

雲が少し多く残念なところがあるがどうしようないが手頃なツアーで良かったです。次回は夏に満天な星空をみたいです

I experienced shower climbing and canyoning for the first time. I was able to enjoy many thrilling moments that I usually can't experience, and it became a great memory. The staff member in charge was friendly and kind, so even though I participated alone, I had a lot of fun. I definitely want to use this service again. Thank you very much.

シャワークライニングとキャニオニングを初めて体験しました。普段味わうことができないような沢山のドキドキを体験をすることができて良い思い出になりました。担当のお兄さんもフレンドリーで親切だったので一人での参加でしたが、とても楽しかったです。また是非利用させて頂きたいと思いました。ありがとうございました。

The explanations were easy to understand, and I enjoyed the viewing experience. It was my first time seeing stars through binoculars, and I was amazed to see so many stars that I couldn't see with the naked eye. It was a windy and chilly day, but thanks to the blankets provided during the viewing, I didn't feel cold. The bus ride was chilly because it was an open bus, so I think it's a good idea for those going during cold seasons to bring a jacket.

説明がわかりやすく、楽しく鑑賞できました。
初めて双眼鏡で星を見たのですが、肉眼では見られないたくさんの星を見られて感動しました。
風が強く肌寒い日でしたが、鑑賞中は用意していただいていたブランケットのおかげで寒い思いをせずすみました。
バスでの移動中はオープンバスのため寒かったので、寒い時期に行かれる方は上着があるといいと思います。

I still remember the starry sky I saw in Ishigaki Island a long time ago, so for this trip, I wanted my husband to see the stars as well, and I booked a tour. We were fortunate with the weather. The tour included binoculars, and the explanations were very clear and enjoyable. It was also a delightful surprise for me when a cat came by (^ ^).

昔見た石垣島の星空が思い出に残っているので、
今回の旅行では、主人にも星空を見て欲しいと思い、ツアーを予約しました。
お天気に恵まれて良かったです。双眼鏡もついており、解説がとてもわかりやすく楽しめました。
猫ちゃんがやってきたことが私にとっては嬉しいサプライズでもありました(^ ^)

Nothing was interesting. If I can only see things like coconut crabs in the summer, I would have liked to be informed in advance. Although it says in the photos and experiences that they can be seen, if they can only be seen in the summer, I want to be told. It felt like a waste of money.

何も面白くなかった。ヤシガニ等、夏しか見れないなら事前に教えてほしい。写真や体験談的には見れたとあるが、夏じゃないと見れないなら教えて欲しい。お金がもったいない感じだった。

I participated with two friends.
Since the moon wasn't out, the Milky Way looked really beautiful!
I also had the optional wings drawn, and I absolutely love them!!

友達と3名で参加しました。
月も出ていなかったのでとてもキレイな天の川が写りました！
オプションの羽も描いてもらって、すごくお気に入りです!!

The day I had reserved was cloudy and the tour was canceled, but I was able to reschedule for the next day and successfully participated in the tour. Additionally, I was given recommendations for great spots in Miyako Island, and I enjoyed the best views that weren't in my original plan! I would like to join the tour again when I come back to Miyako Island.

予約した日が曇りで中止になったのですが、次の日に変更していただき、無事ツアーに参加できました。また、宮古島のおすすめスポットも教えていただき、予定に無かった最高の景色を楽しめました！また、宮古島に来るときはツアーに参加したいと思います。

I had a reservation on November 9th. I made the reservation and payment, and waited at the meeting point on the day, but no one came to pick me up. I tried calling the contact number multiple times, but couldn't get through, and I searched the surrounding area repeatedly. Eventually, when I searched for "Hoshizora Farm" on Google Maps, a completely different location came up, so I decided to head there on a whim, and found that the stargazing tour was taking place. Naturally, I explained the situation to the staff, but I did not receive a satisfactory answer as to why the wrong meeting point was communicated, and why there was no confirmation call even though there were no participants.

I believe that having a mobile number listed as a contact that cannot be reached on the day is pointless. I was told it was the owner's mobile, but they said they didn't know where the owner was today.

I am saddened that my enjoyable travel time was wasted. I hope the company will review its system to prevent others from having a similar experience and provide better tours in the future.

11/9に予約していたものです。予約＆支払いをして当日は集合場所で待っていましたが、迎えがくることはありませんでした。連絡先に何度電話しても繋がらず、周辺を何度も探し回りました。結局Googleマップで「星空ファーム」と検索するとまったく別の場所が出てきたので、一か八かその場所に向かってみたところ、星空ツアーが開催されていました。当然スタッフさんに状況を伝えましたが、なぜ間違った集合場所が伝えられていたのか、なぜ参加者がいないのに確認の電話すらしてこないのか、納得できる回答はいただけませんでした。
連絡先と載せてあった携帯も当日連絡が取れる携帯でなければ意味がないと思います。オーナーさんの携帯とのことでしたが、今日はオーナーがどこにいるか分かりません、と言われました。
せっかくの楽しい旅行の時間を無駄にすることになり悲しいです。同じような思いをする方が出ないよう会社の体制を見直していただき、より良いツアーを開催していただけることを期待しています。

There were many clouds and the moonlight was strong, so I couldn't see as many stars as I had hoped, but the discussion about the stars while pointing them out with a laser pointer was fascinating. The moonlight bath was also nice since I don't usually take the time to look at the moon. It would have been great if we could have considered the moon phase as well...

雲が多く月明かりが強かったので思ったより星が見れなかったがレーザーポインターで示しながらの星の話も興味深かったです。
月光浴も普段ゆっくり月を見ることもないので良かったです。
月齢も考慮できれば良かったのですが・・・

This is actually my second time.
The first time was during a full moon. But I was able to see shooting stars!
This time, it was cloudy.
Although the weather wasn't favorable, the staff were very attentive, and the live performance with the sanshin was moving every time. The atmosphere was great. I would love to participate again without hesitation! Thank you!

実は今回2度目です。
1回目は満月。でも流れ星を見ることが出来ました！
2回目の今回は曇り。
天候には恵まれませんでしたが担当の方が丁寧で、三線の弾き語りは毎回感動です。雰囲気があって良かったです。また懲りずに参加したいと思いました！ありがとうございました！

I participated during my honeymoon trip! The weather was great, so we could see many stars! The explanations were very clear, and they provided chairs and binoculars. The staff was also very kind! I definitely want to go again in a different season!

新婚旅行で行った際に参加しました！お天気も良かったのでたくさん星が見えました！
とても分かりやすく説明してくださいますし、チェアーや双眼鏡も用意してくださってます。スタッフの皆様もとても親切でした！また違う季節にもぜひ行きたいです！

Although the sky was cloudy and the wind was strong, preventing us from seeing a full starry sky, the guide was cheerful and spoke well, making it enjoyable to watch the stars.

雲が多く風が強かった為満面の星空はだめだったがガイドが明るく話が上手かったので楽しく星を見れました。

I saw such a beautiful starry sky for the first time. It was so stunning that it didn't even feel like the same sky in Japan. I was worried about the unstable weather, but as expected, the reservation was postponed. However, the next day, I was informed that the stars would be visible, and I was able to see a beautiful starry sky. The photos turned out even better than I expected, and I was very satisfied. They also recommended some spots in Miyako Island, which I visited the next day. That place was wonderful as well. Thank you for your attentive service.

あんなに綺麗な星空を見たのは、初めてです。
同じ日本の空とは思えないほど、美しかったです。天気が不安定で心配してましたが、予想通り、予約は延期になりましたが、翌日、なんとか星が出ると連絡をくださり、綺麗な星空が見れました。写真も予想以上の仕上がりで大満足しました。宮古島のオススメスポットも教えてくださり、翌日に行ってきました。そちらも素敵な場所でした。丁寧に対応していただき、ありがとうございました。

Nice tour, great weather with stars all over the sky.

Nice tour, great weather with star all over the sky

The day I signed up was unfortunately cloudy, and the event was canceled, but they rescheduled for the next day, and we were lucky to have clear skies (it was said to be the first clear day in two weeks). I was moved to see the Milky Way and a sky full of stars! We were already excited as a family before taking the photos, thinking that those pictures weren't edited but real. However, since I was only focused on taking the pictures, I hadn’t thought about poses at all, but they suggested poses, and we were able to take great photos! ☺️

Everyone else was quite young, so I was a bit worried about whether my mother, who is turning 60, would be okay, but there were no issues, and the shoot went smoothly! After it was over, they kindly shared recommendations for places to visit in Miyako Island.

As a note, I think it would be good to ask about when to expect contact in case of cloudy weather and about parking at the shooting location, which is quite dark, especially for those driving (it might be mentioned somewhere, but I couldn't find it).

Taking photos against such a beautiful starry sky is challenging for amateurs. Since this was a trip to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday, I hoped it would become a lifelong memory, and my mother was very happy as well. I recommend this experience to people of all ages!

申し込んだ日はあいにくの曇りで中止だったのですが、次の日に変更してくださり無事に晴れ（2週間ぶりの晴れだったそうです）天の川と満天の星空が見れたことに感動！あの写真は合成でなく本当だったんだ…と撮る前から家族で感動していました。しかし、撮るということだけしか考えていなかったので全くポーズなど考えていなかったのですが、ポーズを提案してくださり無事に撮ることができました☺️
私達以外は若い方達だったので、還暦の母でも大丈夫かな…と思っていたのですが全く問題なくスムーズに撮影できました！
終わった後も宮古島のオススメの場所を教えてくださったりと終始親切な対応でした
注意事項としましては、曇りの場合何時頃に連絡があるのか、撮影場所は真っ暗なので車で行かれる方は駐車場はどうなのかをお聞きした方がいいと思います（どこかに書かれているかもしれませんが私は見つけられませんでした）
こんな綺麗な星空をバックに写真を撮るというのは素人には難しいものです。母の還暦祝いの旅行ということもあり、一生の思い出になることを…と思い申し込んだのですが、母も大変喜んでくれました。どの世代の方にもオススメします！

I was able to see a coconut crab up close for the first time. The weather was nice, and I was able to see many stars as well. The staff were friendly, and it was an enjoyable tour.

ヤシガニを初めて近くで見ることができました。天気もよく、たくさんの星も観ることができました。スタッフの方も親切で楽しいツアーでした。
