Ishigaki/Yaeyama
With transportation included, you can easily visit three islands. This tour covers the highlights of each island and is ideal for those experiencing remote islands for the first time. When crossing to Yufu Island, sitting at the front may result in getting splashed, so if you're concerned about that, consider sitting towards the back.
送迎付きで、3島を手軽に回ることができます。それぞれの見どころを抑えており、離島初体験のツアーとしては最適といえます。由布島に渡るときは、先頭に座ると水がかかる可能性がありますので、気になる人は後方に座ることも考慮してください。

This time, since it was a trip with my elderly parents, I wanted to minimize walking while still having a satisfying plan, and I found this course! The cruise was great, and the water buffalo cart and bus sightseeing were very good without unnecessary fatigue.
今回は高齢の両親との旅行だったので、なるべく歩かず、けれども満足行くプランでと思って探してヒットしたのがこのコースでした！
クルーズも良し、水牛車、バス観光と無駄に疲れることなく大変良かったです

The water buffalo carts, the buildings, and the people were all wonderful.
My stay on Taketomi Island was very short, so I felt a bit unsatisfied and definitely want to go back again.
水牛車も、建物も、人も全てよかったです。
竹富島の滞在が、すごく少なくて。。物足りなかったので、またぜひ行きたいと思いました。

The water buffalo on Taketomi Island was just as good as I expected. However, one disappointing thing was that despite checking in early to ride the water buffalo, I was skipped over several times. When I asked if it was my turn yet, I was told to wait a little longer, and then it turned out I had actually been forgotten. I was disappointed by the lack of enthusiasm from the staff at the reception.
竹富島の水牛は予想通り良かったです。
ただ一つ残念なのが水牛に乗るのに早く受付をしたのにも関わらず、何組にも飛ばされ、まだですか？と聞いたときにはもう少しお待ちくださいと言われ、それからまた待っていたら実際は忘れられていた。受付のやる気の無さにがっかり。

Relaxing sightseeing on a water buffalo, and then renting a bicycle to the sea.
There are no traffic signals, the roads are unpaved, and the bicycles have no locks.
It's an experience you can't have in any rural area. It was a luxury.
水牛でゆったりと観光、そのあとはレンタルサイクルで海まで。
信号もなく、道路も舗装されていなく、自転車には鍵もない。
どんな地方の田舎にいってもできない経験。ぜいたくでした。

It was my first time on Taketomi Island. Since it was the last day, I was very happy with the luggage storage service. I was healed by the scenery of Taketomi Island and the water buffalo.
初めての竹富島でした。最終日だったので、荷物を預かってくれるサービスはとても嬉しかったです。竹富島の風景と、水牛に癒されました。

I enjoyed a leisurely ride on a water buffalo cart while listening to stories about the island and live music, and then took a walk around the island to eat some shaved ice. It was hot, but it was a fun half-day. I think it's a great deal since it also includes a ferry ticket! ☆

It was a solo trip. Even though I was alone, the bus tour and the water buffalo cart were both enjoyable! The guide's sanshin and singing during the water buffalo cart ride were truly moving! It became a wonderful memory of this summer.
ひとり旅でした。ひとりでしたが、バス観光も水牛車も楽しかったです！水牛車でのガイドさんの三線と唄は、本当に感動しました！この夏のステキなの思い出になりました。

The ferry fare to Taketomi Island and the tour fee for the water buffalo and Taketomi Island are included, making it a great deal. We were able to enjoy a leisurely time with the water buffalo. At the end, we had the opportunity to take photos, which we could also purchase, making it perfect for creating memories. In fact, we plan to buy the photos and display them at home. If you're going to Ishigaki Island and have a half day available, I highly recommend enjoying Taketomi Island with the water buffalo! 😊
竹富島までのフェリー代と水牛と竹富島を巡るツアー代が含まれており、お得です。ゆったりとした水牛と楽しむことができました。最後には写真を撮っていただき、その写真を購入することもでき、思い出づくりにはぴったりだと思います。実際に私たちは写真を購入して、家に飾る予定です。石垣島に行って午後半日時間があるという方はぜひ水牛と一緒に竹富島を楽しんでみてはいかがでしょうか(^ ^)

A nearby island that can be reached by boat in 10 minutes from Ishigaki Island. The water buffalo pulling the cart are cute and relaxing at their own pace. However, it felt a bit too commercialized as a tourist spot, and there were a lot of people, making it seem somewhat like a theme park.
石垣島から船で10分で行ける身近な島。
牛車の水牛さんは可愛く、マイペースで癒されます。
ただ、ちょと観光地化され過ぎてて、人も沢山いるのでなんとなくテーマパーク的に見えました。

Taketomi Island has many sandy paths within the village, which can make it a bit tricky to maintain your balance, but cycling was both enjoyable and an efficient way to explore the places I wanted to visit! The rental bicycle shop provides a map of Taketomi Island with numbered sections, so you won't get lost. There are bicycle parking areas at the tourist spots, so you won't have any trouble finding a place to park! The West Pier is less crowded, making it perfect for taking photos!
竹富島は集落内は砂の道が多く、バランスを崩しそうになることもありますが、自転車も楽しく、かつ効率よく行きたいところを巡ることができました！レンタサイクルやさんが整理番号つきの竹富島の地図をくださるので、迷わず行けます♪観光スポットには自転車置き場があるので、置き場に困ることもありません！
西桟橋は人が少ないので、写真撮るにはうってつけです！

I decided just before departure, but I was able to make a smooth reservation and fully enjoy my first visit to Taketomi Island on the day. I enjoyed the ox cart ride with the brother's sanshin and singing, and at the end, we also took some photos.
出発直前に決めましたが、スムーズに予約が取れ当日も初の竹富島を満喫できました。
牛車もお兄さんの三線と歌を楽しみ、最後に写真も撮っていただきました。

The mangrove cruise was disappointing because we couldn't go upstream due to low tide, but it was nice to have various explanations about the types of mangroves.
I enjoyed riding the water buffalo cart, feeling the sea breeze while listening to the stories from the guide and the sound of the sanshin, which made for a relaxing time.
On Taketomi Island, I rode a bicycle to enjoy the island's scenery and ended up getting caught up in searching for star sand.
The only downside was that at Yubu Island, during the typical tourist photo opportunity, we had to wait a long time in the intense sunlight with poor ventilation and no shade. I think photo sessions should be limited to those who want to take pictures. After lunch, we had less than 30 minutes for sightseeing, so I felt that the time spent waiting was a waste. It was disappointing to not have enough time to see the places I wanted to visit on the island.
マングローブクルーズは干潮時に当たった為、上流の方まで行けなくて残念でしたが、マングローブの種類など色々説明があって良かったです。
水牛が一生懸命引いてくれる水牛車に乗り、海風を感じながら、おじさんの話や三線を聞き、のんびりした時間が過ごせました。
竹富島では自転車で島の景色を見ながら回って歩き、最後は星砂探しに夢中になってしまいました。
ただ一つ残念だったのは、由布島で観光地に良くある記念撮影の時に強烈な日差しの中、風通しも悪く日陰もない中を長々と待たされた事です。写真撮影は撮りたい人だけにした方がいいと思います。昼食を食べた後、観光する時間が30分もなかったので、あの待たされた時間がもったいなかったと思いました。島を観て回りたくても時間がなく観たい所が見れずに終わってしまい残念でした。

I finally got to ride a water buffalo and enjoyed the leisurely pace of time on Taketomi Island. The driver also provided a lovely service by singing Okinawan folk songs, which was wonderful. I would love to visit again to see the water buffaloes.
念願の水牛に乗って、竹富島のゆっくり流れる時間を堪能しました。
運転手の方が沖縄民謡歌を歌ってくれるサービスもありとても良かったです。
水牛たちに会いにまた訪れたいです。

We used this service as a family of three. After arriving at the airport at 10:15, we rented a car and headed to the ferry terminal for the islands. The outbound trip was on a small boat, while the return was on a large ship. After arriving at Taketomi Island, we took a bus to the center. After checking in, we waited about 15 minutes. When our name was called, we boarded the water buffalo cart. It was a slow and leisurely ride. Before we knew it, the tour was over. We rented bicycles and visited Nagomi Tower, Nishi Sazaki Bridge, and Kaiji Beach, and then it was time for the last ferry. We had a fulfilling half day from the 13:05 meeting until just past 17:00.
家族３人で利用しました。10:15に空港到着後、レンタカーを借りてから、離島ターミナルへ。
往路は小ぶりな船。復路は大型船でした。竹富島に到着してからバスで中心部へ。受付をして待つこと15分程。名前を呼ばれ水牛車へ。ゆっくり、のんびり廻ります。あっと言う間に周回終了。自転車を借りて、なごみの塔、西桟橋、カイジ浜を廻ったら最終便の時刻。13:05の集合から17時ちょい過ぎまで充実した半日を過ごせます。

I participated on the 12th during my stay from August 11th to 14th. We left early in the morning, and the boat ride was quite rocky, which made both my child and me a bit anxious. I'm glad I took motion sickness medication. The water buffalo I wanted to ride allowed us to leisurely experience the essence of Okinawa. I thought it would have been nice if there were lunch boxes prepared for children.
8月11日〜14日の滞在で、12日に参加しました。
朝早くに出発で、行きの船は朝のせいか結構揺れて私も子供もちょっと不安でした。酔い止め飲んどいて良かったです。乗ってみたかった水牛は、のんびり沖縄らしさを味わえました。お昼ごはんのお弁当？は、子供用の用意とかあれば良かったなぁと思います。

The water buffalo course was a lot of fun, and it was inexpensive, including the ferry. I was surprised that they also offered free luggage storage and a complimentary bus shuttle.

It was my first time in the Yaeyama Islands, and I was glad to be able to explore multiple islands at once. Cycling in the sunshine was fun, but it was hot. Writing a comment longer than 50 characters is tough.
初めての八重山諸島でしたが、まとめて島巡りができて、良かったです。晴れてサイクリングは楽しかったが暑かった。。50文字以上のコメントは厳しいですね。

I had a great time efficiently visiting three remote islands for the first time. I was able to enjoy sightseeing without feeling rushed.
During the ferry ride, I was on the deck, but the wind was quite strong, so it might have been better to sit inside. I was satisfied with exploring Taketomi Island freely by renting a bicycle.
初めての離島を3島を効率よく回れて楽しかったです。時間もせわしないこともなく観光ができました。
移動時間のフェリーではデッキにいたので風がすごすぎるため、中に座った方が良かったかもしれないです。竹富島はレンタサイクルで自由に散策できて満足でした。

I thought it would be a busier tour, but I was able to take my time and really enjoy the mangroves. The guide's explanations were clear and enjoyable, which was great.
The view from Nishizaki Pier on Taketomi Island, which I've always dreamed of visiting, was just as wonderful as I expected, and I was very satisfied.
The Okinawa zenzai I had on Taketomi Island, with its fluffy ice and brown sugar syrup, was exquisite❣ I had a full day of fun.
もっと忙しいツアーかと思っていましたが、じっくりマングローブを見てきました。ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく楽しくて良かったです。
憧れの竹富島、西桟橋からの眺めは思っていたとおりの素晴らしさ大満足です。
竹富島で食べた沖縄ぜんざい、フワフワの氷と黒糖シロップがぜんざいと絶妙❣ 1日たっぷり楽しめました

I rode a water buffalo cart for the first time! This time, I was guided by Yuki, who had a hibiscus flower attached. The water buffaloes, who aren't fond of the heat... thank you for your hard work even on such a hot day! At Hoshi no Suna Beach, I collected a lot of star sand. I also received a souvenir, so I'll keep it together. Next time, I plan to come during a cooler season and take my time exploring the island. Thank you to all the staff at the tourist office for your help in the heat.
水牛車に初めて乗りました！ハイビスカスをつけて貰っていた結くんに今回は案内してもらいましたよ。暑いのが苦手な水牛さんたち・・・こんな暑い日にも、お仕事お疲れ様です！ありがとう！星の砂海岸では、沢山星砂を拾いました。記念品でもいただけたので、一緒に入れておきます。今度は暑く無い時期に来て、ゆっくり島を回ってみようと思います。
観光所のスタッフの皆さんも暑い中、ありがとうございました。

The tour departs at 14:30.
As soon as we arrived at Taketomi Island, we enjoyed a glass-bottom boat (with air conditioning! Apparently, this is the only company that offers it so far). There were no other guests, so we had the boat to ourselves.
After that, we enjoyed a water buffalo cart ride, and the tour ended around 16:15.
It was too hot to feel like going outside, so we waited for the bus to the port in the waiting area (which also had air conditioning).
It was quite a good deal and a lot of fun.
14:30発のツアー。
竹富島に到着してすぐにグラスボート（エアコンあり！今のところこの会社だけだそうです）。他の客はいなくて貸し切りで楽しめました。
その後水牛車を楽しんで、終了は16時15分くらい。
暑すぎて外に出る気にならず、そのまま港へのバスを待機所で待ちました（エアコンあり）。
かなりお得で楽しめました。

The price felt like a good deal, and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the streets of Taketomi Island and Kondoi Beach with the water buffalo cart. Next time, it might be nice to have a plan to stay all day.
お値段的にお得感があり、水牛車も竹富島の街並みやコンドイ浜を十二分に楽しめた。
今度は一日中居るプランでも良いかも

I participated alone this time, but they were very considerate towards individuals! The guides were also very kind and even though they seemed busy, they responded with care! This experience made me want to join another tour on a different occasion! I highly recommend it!
今回は一人で参加しましたが、一人の人に対しても配慮のある対応をしてくれました！またガイドの方々もとても優しく忙しそうにしていても丁寧に対応してくれました！また別の機会別のツアーに参加してみたいと思わせていただきました！おススメです！

I signed up for a round-trip ferry and water buffalo cart tour. It's overwhelmingly more economical than purchasing separately. The water buffalo tour was well-guided, and above all, it was a special experience to leisurely explore the streets of Taketomi Island while enjoying the scenery from the cart. Be sure to sit at the front of the water buffalo cart! If you sit at the back, the buffalo will be far away, and it will be hard to hear the explanations.
フェリー往復と水牛車観光のツアーに申し込みました。
別々に購入するよりも圧倒的にお得です。
水牛観光はガイドさんの説明も上手で、なによりも竹富島の街並みを眺めながら水牛車でゆっくりと観光できるのは特別な時間でした。
水牛車には必ず前方に乗ってください！後方だと水牛が遠く、説明も聞きづらいです。
Translated by OpenAI
The super strong water buffalo can pull a cart with about 20 people. This time, I got to ride on a water buffalo named A-pa-kun! Its body was large and impressive, but it had big, round eyes and was very calm and adorable. The guide's performance on the sanshin was also wonderful. Additionally, the explanation about Taketomi Island was very informative! The townscape had a distinct Okinawan charm, and I was able to enjoy a relaxing time. I definitely want to participate again!
20人前後の人が乗った車を引くことができる超力もちの水牛さん。今回はアーパーくんという水牛の車に乗せてもらいました!体は大きくて迫力があるけれど、目がクリクリで大人しくてとても可愛かったです(^^)ガイドさんの三線の弾き語りも素晴らしかったです。また、竹富島についての説明もとても勉強になりました！
街並みも沖縄らしさがあり、のんびりとした時間が過ごせました。
ぜひまた参加したいと思います!!

The glass boat was new and looked beautiful, and the water buffalo were very cute; I felt relaxed while listening to their songs. I had a lot of fun for this price. The transition from the glass boat to the water buffalo cart was very smooth. Thank you very much!
グラスボートも、最新で綺麗に見え、水牛はとってもかわいく歌を聞きながら癒されました。
このお値段でたっぷり楽しめました。
グラスボートから水牛車までもとってもスムーズに案内していただきました。ありがとうございました❗❗

I was able to efficiently visit the attractions of the islands. We crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo, but water flowed into the seats, so I recommend participating with shoes that can get wet. The water buffalo was very cute (*^^*). On Taketomi Island, I chose the cycling plan. I went to look for star sand, but it seemed like many had already been collected, so I couldn't find as much as I expected (^^; Also, I got lost on the way back to the bicycle rental shop and was worried about making it back in time for the meeting, so I think those who are not confident in their sense of direction should allow extra time on the way back. It was a very enjoyable tour!
効率よく、島々の見所を観光できました。由布島まで水牛に乗って渡るのですが、水が座席にまで流れ込んできますので濡れてもいい靴での参加をオススメします。水牛がとっても可愛かったです(*^^*)竹富島ではサイクリングプランを選択しました。星の砂を探しに行ったのですが、もうたくさん拾われてしまったのか、思ったよりも見つかりませんでした(^^;また、自転車レンタル店舗へ戻るまでの道に迷い、集合に間に合うか焦ってしまったので、方向感覚に自信の無い肩は帰り道は時間に余裕を持って行動した方がいいと思います。とても楽しいツアーでした！

Since we didn't have much time, we chose a relatively quick tour. On the glass boat, we listened to explanations about the fish and coral while enjoying the view. We rode a water buffalo and explored the main street of Taketomi Island, and finally spent a little time at the beach. If we had arranged everything individually, it would have taken much longer, but since it was all set up, the transitions from the water buffalo to the bus were smooth. It was just as I expected, and it met my goals, so I'm satisfied. If you want to fully enjoy it, I think it's better to take your time and go at your own pace.
時間もなかったので、わりとさっと回れるツアーを選びました。ｸﾞﾗｽﾎﾞｰﾄでは魚やさんごの説明ききつつ、見て、水牛にのり竹富島の中心街をめぐり、最後にビーチでちょっと時間。個別に手配して回るともっと時間かかったと思いますが、セットになっていたのでベルトコンベアー式に水牛からバスなどスムーズでした。まあ思っていた通りで、目的通りなのでいいです。しっかり満喫したいなら時間をとって自分たちのペースで回ればいいと思います。

The Nakama River Mangrove Cruise features an open sightseeing boat, and the tropical river and sea breezes felt wonderful. The water buffalo cart on Yufu Island brought smiles and happiness to the faces of the guests. The water buffalo worked hard to cross the sea. Renting a bicycle on Taketomi Island was hot, but I was able to directly feel the atmosphere of the village. However, be cautious of traffic accidents, as light vehicles can come out of intersections quite suddenly.
仲間川マングローブクルーズは、オープンの観光船で、熱帯の川風、海風が気持ちがよかった。
由布島の水牛車は、お客さんの顔はハッピーという笑顔があふれてました。
水牛が頑張って海を渡ってゆきました。
竹富島のレンタサイクル。暑かったが、村の雰囲気を肌に直に感じることができました。ただし、交通事故要注意。交差点から軽四が勢いよく出てきたりする・・
