All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

At first, I was worried because it was cloudy, but the wind cleared the clouds, and I was glad to see the beautiful view. After participating in the tour, I started to pay more attention to the stars.

雲がかかっていたので初めは心配でしたが、風で雲も流れて綺麗に見れて良かったです
ツアー参加後、気にして星を見るようになりました

I was able to enjoy mangrove kayaking even in the rain! The instructor provided detailed explanations about the mangroves and guided us carefully, allowing us to have a fulfilling experience!

雨でもマングローブカヤックを楽しむ事ができました！
インストラクターの方がマングローブを細かく説明してくれたり、マングローブを丁寧に案内してくれたりして、充実した時間を過ごす事ができました！

The view from a sightseeing bus offers different discoveries compared to a passenger car, and you can also listen to the guide's explanations, so it is recommended depending on your purpose.

観光バスからの目線は乗用車とは違う発見があり、ガイドさんの説明も聞けるので、目的によってはおすすめです。

The tour that efficiently covers the mangrove forest cruise in Iriomote, the ox cart ride to Yubu Island, and the charming star sand beach and ox carts in Taketomi Island was absolutely satisfying. I really felt it was worth going, especially since the weather was just right. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting the Nansei Islands for the first time.

西表でのマングローブの林のクルーズ、牛車で行く由布島、星砂の浜と牛車が魅力的な竹富島を効率的に周れるツアーは大大満足。
ギリギリ天候にも恵まれてほんっとに行って良かったなと思います。初めて南西諸島に行く人には絶対お薦めです。

It was disappointing that we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to the rough waves, but we went snorkeling in a different location and were thrilled to see such beautiful fish. The guide was friendly and made the experience enjoyable. The mangrove kayaking was also relaxing, with the gentle flow of the river and the scenery being very soothing.

波が荒れていて青の洞窟に行けなくて残念でしたが、違う場所でシュノーケリングをしましたが、とても綺麗な魚達が見れて感激しました。
ガイドのお姉さんも気さくな方で楽しめました。
マングローブのカヤックも穏やかな川の流れと景色に癒やされました。

Since you often have the opportunity to ride on boats and there can be swaying due to rain, it's better to have motion sickness medication even if you usually don't get sick! One person felt nauseous and had to drop out, but the staff informed them that they couldn't return immediately.

The weather forecast for Okinawa is unreliable. It's better to have rain gear. There were also people lining up to buy raincoats that looked like they were worth less than 100 yen inside the boat.

船に乗る機会が多いし、雨で揺れることもあるので普段酔わなくても酔い止めあった方が良いです！
1人気持ち悪いと脱落しましたが、すぐには帰れないことをスタッフから言われてました。

沖縄の天気予報あてになりません。
雨具あった方が良いです。
船の中で、見た目が100均以下のカッパ買うために並んでる人もいました。

I was a bit concerned about my physical stamina since I was with my elderly parents, but we used boats, water buffalo carts, and buses, so there were no particular issues. We were able to ride the water buffalo cart twice; the first time we were at the back, and the second time at the front, which was quite enjoyable. Personally, I would have liked a bit more time to explore Yubu Island rather than just the mangrove tour. Overall, I was satisfied with the efficient visit to the three islands. Thank you very much.

高齢の両親と一緒だったので体力的に不安がありましたが、船や水牛車、バスを利用したので特に問題ありませんでした。水牛車も2回乗れて、1回目は最後尾、2回目は最前列と充分楽しめました。
個人的にはマングローブ遊覧より、由布島の散策にもう少し時間が欲しかったです。
効率的に3島巡れて概ね満足です。ありがとうございました。

I was drawn to the Jungle Night Tour and signed up. Although it wasn't raining, the weather was unfortunately not great... Sadly, we couldn't see the starry sky, but I had a great time encountering the unique plants and creatures of the Yaeyama Islands.

ジャングルナイトツアーにひかれて申し込みました。雨は降っていませんでしたがあいにくのお天気…残念ながら星空は見えませんでしたが八重山諸島ならではの植物や生物に出会えて楽しい思い出が出来ました。

They provided various explanations along the way, and I made new discoveries. I was very satisfied as they also took me to a fruit juice shop I had hoped to visit and guided me to a spot where I could see the ocean in its entirety.

道すがら色んな説明をしてくれ、新しい発見がありました。希望していたフルーツジュースのお店にも寄ってくれたり、海が一望できる場所に案内してくれたり、と大満足でした。

We experienced kayaking for the first time as a couple! The guide was very kind and taught us a lot, and she also took many photos for us! The mangroves were incredibly mysterious, and I was thrilled to learn about the ecology and names of the plants. The Blue Cave was canceled due to weather conditions, but we still had so much fun kayaking! Additionally, she recommended a great yakiniku restaurant in Ishigaki, so we had yakiniku for dinner! We spent the whole day feeling happy. I definitely want to join this tour again when I come back to Ishigaki!

初めてのカヤックを夫婦で体験しました！
ガイドのお姉さんが優しく教えてくださり、写真もたくさん撮ってくださりました！
マングローブはとても神秘的で、植物の生態や名前などいろいろ教えていただき感激しました。
青の洞窟は天候の関係でキャンセルになりましたがカヤックだけでもとっても楽しかったです！
また、石垣島のお勧め焼肉屋さんも教えてくださり晩御飯は焼肉！一日中幸せな気分で過ごせました☆
また石垣島に来る際はもう一度このツアーに絶対参加したいです！！

Our experience started with a pickup at Ishigaki Airport, and we requested a tour of Ishigaki Island. There were six of us girls participating from Osaka. We left the sightseeing arrangements to them, and it turned out to be a very satisfying tour. The vehicle was clean, and the veteran driver was very attentive. Moreover, they even delivered a forgotten item to our hotel the next day. We were able to enjoy a lot of sightseeing more freely than on a group tour. It's safer than renting a car, and I highly recommend it.

石垣空港お迎えから始まり、石垣島観光をお願いしました。女子6名大阪からの参加です。
観光お任せにしました。
大満足の観光になりました。
車内は清潔で、ベテランドライバーさんの細やかな配慮。
しかも忘れ物を翌日ホテルまで届けて頂きました。
団体旅行より、自由に沢山観光できました。
レンタカーより安心で、お勧めです。

There aren't many bus services, so I joined a tour. Since it was a half-day tour, we covered a lot efficiently and finished around 2 PM. However, if we hadn't taken a lunch break, we could have finished a bit earlier and used the extra time for other activities.

バスの便があまりないので、ツアーに参加しました。
半日ということで効率よく回り、14時頃終了しましたが、昼食をはさまなければもう少し早く終了し、余った時間を他のことに使えたのにと思います。

I participated in a tour where we went snorkeling in the morning and mangrove canoeing in the afternoon. During the tour, the guide kept the atmosphere lively and took many photos for us.

午前はシュノーケル、午後はマングローブカヌーをするツアーに参加しました。ツアー参加中にガイドの方が盛り上げてくれたり、たくさん写真を撮ってくれました。

We used this for our second day of our 4-night, 5-day honeymoon trip! The water buffalo cart and mangrove tour were fun. The schedule was quite tight until we reached Taketomi Island, so we kept our time there free and enjoyed parfaits at a café on the island. By using the tour from morning until evening, it turned into a fulfilling day that will remain a memorable experience for both of us!

新婚旅行4泊5日の2日目の予定として利用させてもらいました！
水牛車、マングローブ遊覧は楽しかったです。
かなり竹富島まではキツキツのスケジュールだったので竹富島での時間はフリーにし、竹富島のカフェでパフェを食べました。
朝から夕方までツアーを利用したことで充実の1日で2人の思い出に残る1日になりました！

I can't believe there are such vehicles in the Reiwa era!
It felt like a throwback in time.
I was able to relax and forget about my busy daily life.
It was a precious experience that I could only have here.

令和の時代にこんな乗り物があるとは！
時代錯誤を感じました。
のんびりゆったりまったりして日頃の忙しい毎日を忘れさせて頂きました。
ここでしか感じ得ない貴重な体験でした。

I found a night tour around 4 PM when I didn't want to waste the evening after another tour ended! The tour itself was short, but it wasn't a very well-organized tour, so I hurriedly made a reservation on the same day.

The young and energetic guide was very enthusiastic and made everyone laugh, which was a lot of fun. We were able to find some snakes and crabs that are usually hard to see, which was really exciting!

Unfortunately, I couldn't see the stars on the day I went, but instead, I was able to see fireflies!! Super lucky!

I recommend this for those who want to make good use of their evening time or for families with children!

午後4時ぐらいに他のツアー終わって夜の時間を無駄に使いたくなかった時見つけたナイトツアー！！ツアー自体に時間は短かったが、あまりよくできるツアーではなかったので急いで当日に予約のお決まり★

若くて元気なガイドのお姉さん、やる気満々で凄くいい感じでみんなを笑わせて楽しかった。普通には見ることがなかなかできない蛇やカニなど結構見つけられて嬉しさ上々★

私が行った日は残念ながら星を見られなかったが、代わりに蛍みることできた！！超ーラッキー

夜の時間を上手く使いたい人や子供を持ってるおご家族におススメ★

It was our first trip to Ishigaki Island as a couple. The weather was bad, but on the last day, we were blessed with beautiful weather. We visited our main destinations, Kabira Bay, Mirumiru Honpo, and a shop for Sata Andagi, all by taxi. The scenery along the way was beautiful, and we created many wonderful memories. The driver always drove safely and shared various stories, fulfilling many of our wishes. The Yaeyama soba restaurant frequented by locals was truly delicious. Finally, we were taken from our hotel to the airport, allowing us to enjoy sightseeing in Ishigaki Island without worrying about our heavy suitcases, which made us very satisfied. Thank you to the driver for your kindness.

夫婦で初めての石垣島の旅行でした。
お天気が悪かったのですが、最終日はとても良い天気に恵まれ、一番の目的川平湾やミルミル本舗、サーターアンダギーのお店など、タクシーで巡っていただきました。
途中景色はどこもきれいで、たくさんの素敵な思い出ができました。
運転手さんは常に安全運転で、いろいろなお話をしてくださり、私たちの希望をたくさん叶えてくださいました。
地元の人が通う八重山そばのお店、本当に美味しかったです。
宿泊ホテルから最後は空港へ送っていただき、重いスーツケースを気にせず、石垣島を観光できて、大満足です。
運転手さん、親切にしていただきありがとうございました。

I wanted to fully enjoy Ishigaki Island until night, so I signed up for this tour. I was glad to see creatures like fireflies and coconut crabs that are not often seen. The explanations were also very easy to understand and enjoyable.

石垣島を夜まで満喫したいと思いこちらのツアーを申込みました。ホタルやヤシガニなどあまり見ることができない生き物を見ることができて良かったです。解説も非常にわかりやすく楽しかったです。

Unfortunately, the cloudy sky meant we couldn't see the stars at all, but I was very satisfied to see four coconut crabs, fireflies (larvae??), and stalactites! I especially couldn't find the coconut crabs at all, so when I finally did, I was truly moved!

あいにくの曇り空で、星空は全然見れなかったですが、ヤシガニ4匹と蛍(の幼虫？？)、鍾乳石が見れて大満足でした！！
とくにヤシガニは全然見つけられなくて、、見つけた時は本当に感動でした〜

It was my first time experiencing canoeing, and it was so much fun (≧∇≦). At first, I wondered if I would be okay, but it turned out to be a very valuable experience. I want to try canoeing again, and I want to stay in Ishigaki Island until I get tired of it. Thank you very much!‍♂️

カヌー体験初めてでしたが、凄く楽しかった(≧∇≦)
乗って直ぐは大丈夫？って思ったけど、とても貴重な体験しました。又カヌー体験したいし、石垣島に飽きるまで居たいと思いました。
ありがとうございました‍♂️

The weather was bad during my stay, but the night of my visit it cleared up, and I saw the best starry sky! After that, I had fun exploring for creatures along the seaside at night.

滞在中天気が悪かったのですが、当日夜は晴れ、最高の星空が見えました！その後で、夜の海沿いで生き物探し、冒険楽しかったです。

You can tour around Ishigaki Island in a short amount of time. I think it's good for those who want to make the most of their time efficiently. After that, it might depend on your compatibility with the guide.

ひと通り石垣島をめぐれます。
時間がなく効率よく回りたい方はよいと思います。
後はガイドさんとの相性でしょうか。

It was great to see the mangrove forests and to ride slowly on a water buffalo cart. However, the weather was rainy, and I wore a raincoat while renting a bicycle, but I still got soaked. If the weather had been nice, it would have been truly amazing.

マングローブの原生林が見れたり、水牛の牛車にゆっくり乗れたのは良かったです。ただ天候が雨でレンタサイクルではカッパを着てましたが、それでもびしょ濡れになりました。天候が良ければ本当に最高でした。

I participated on November 4th. It was a terrible start with heavy rain from the morning, but after that, it was on and off. It seems it had been raining since the beginning of November, so both the sea and the river were muddy, which was very disappointing. The day trip course was good, but it was still quite unfortunate. It was crowded with participants from many tour companies, but we were able to go smoothly without much waiting. A really lucky thing was that for the day trip under the national travel support program, I received a 5,000 yen discount and a 3,000 yen coupon.

11月４日に参加しました。朝から土砂降りでひどいスタートでしたが、それからは降ったりやんだりでした。11月入ってからずっと雨だったらしく、海も川も濁ってとても残念でした。日帰りコースは良かったのですがとても残念でした。沢山のツアー会社の参加者でいっぱいだったのですが、あまり待たずにスムーズにいけました。凄くラッキーなことは、全国旅行支援の日帰り旅行になら一日5000円の割引とクーポンが3000円もらえました。

It had been a while since I went kayaking, but the guide explained the tips in an easy-to-understand way, so I think even beginners can participate without worry. The mangroves I saw for the first time were very mystical. It was also a fun memory that the guide shared interesting facts about the mangroves and the creatures living there. Due to the weather, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave, but I appreciated the advance notice. Additionally, the guide shared information about the gourmet food in Ishigaki Island. Although I couldn't go because the seats were full, I hope to make a reservation next time I visit Ishigaki Island! Of course, I would love to join the tour again!

カヤックにのるのは久しぶりでしたが、お兄さんがコツを分かりやすく教えてくれるので初心者の方でも心配なく参加できると思います。
初めて見るマングローブはとても神秘的でした。
お兄さんがマングローブやそこに住む生き物について豆知識を教えてくれたのも楽しい思い出です。
天候の関係で青の洞窟には行けませんでしたが、事前の連絡をいただけたので助かりました。
また、石垣島のグルメも教えてくださりました。座席が埋まっており行くことはできませんでしたが、再び石垣島に行くときには予約していけたらなあと思います！もちろんツアーもまた参加したいです！！

The weather wasn't great, but I had a good time. I thought it was cheap, especially with the delicious lunch included. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a kind message about being able to use the national travel support. Thank you very much.

天候がいまひとつでしたが、楽しめました。
おいしい昼食も付いて安いと思いました。
丁度全国旅行支援も利用できると思いがけず親切に連絡があり嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。

It was a day with not very good weather, but they smoothly changed our glass boat plan to the water buffalo plan! The time allocation was reasonable, which was great!

天候があまり良くない日でしたが、グラスボートプランを水牛プランに変更してくれスムーズに行けました！
無理ない時間の配分でよかったです！

The last time I visited Ishigaki Island, I explored it by rental car. There were quite a few hassles, like renting and returning the car, getting lost, and searching for parking. This time, since my stay was short and I wanted to make the most of it, I decided to use a bus tour. It was almost the same route as before, but I got to listen to the guide's explanations and enjoyed a student-like experience, making it unexpectedly comfortable and a fantastic time.

前回石垣島を訪れた時はレンタカーで周りました。レンタカーを借りたり返したり、道を迷ったり駐車場を探したりと結構面倒なことがありました。今回は滞在時間が短く無駄なく周るためにバスツアーを利用する事にしました。前回とほぼ同じコースですが、ガイドさんの説明も聞け、学生気分も味わえ想像以上に快適で最高の時間となりました。

The tour bus drivers on Iriomote Island and Taketomi Island were fun and shared various stories, making for a very enjoyable experience. It was a great tour that allowed us to visit the main sightseeing spots in just one day.

西表島や竹富島の観光バスの運転手さんが楽しくていろんなお話をしてくれて、とても楽しく過ごせました。
主だった観光名所を一日で回ることができて、いいツアーでした。

I toured Taketomi Island by water buffalo cart. I was able to spend a relaxing and peaceful time. It was great to hear the guide play the sanshin. I am grateful to the couple from Osaka who were with us; they helped us, as we were participating with a wheelchair. The glass-bottom boat was a bit disappointing. I couldn't see much as I had hoped, and the boat went fast, causing it to sway a lot, which made me feel unwell.

水牛車で竹富島のなかを観光しました。ゆったりしてのどかな時間を過ごせました。ガイドさんの三線も聞けて、良かったです。一緒に成った大阪のご夫婦に良くしてもらい、車椅子♿参加の私達を、助けて下さり感謝です。グラスボートは少し⤵️でした。思ったほど何も見えず、船がスピードをだし、凄く揺れて気分がわるくなりました。
