All Reviews for 沖繩活動

On January 1, 2023, the weather for kayaking was perfect with no wind and great conditions. ☀️

The staff's guidance was attentive, and their explanations about the natural plants were easy to understand. They also answered our questions thoroughly.

We went kayaking as a group of three, including our 5-year-old child, and the kayak was stable and easy to maneuver.

2023.1.1にカヤック天候も良く風も無く最高のカヤック日和でした☀️

スタッフさんの案内も丁寧で自然植物の説明も分かりやすく質問にもしっかり答えて頂きました。

私達は、5歳の子供含め3人でカヤックに乗りましたが安定さカヤックで操作もしやすかったです。

I was picked up at Naha Airport and enjoyed lunch and shopping on the way to the hotel. Even though I arrived early at the airport exit, the driver was waiting with a name board. After taking me to my desired location, he came to pick me up immediately when I called, which made the experience really comfortable. Renting a car to explore at a leisurely pace is nice, but I also recommend chartered sightseeing taxis!

那覇空港に迎えに来ていただき、ランチ、ショッピングを楽しみながらホテルまで送迎して頂きました。空港出口に早めに到着したにも関わらず、運転手さんがネイムボードを持って待っていてくださり、また希望の場所へ連れて行ってくれた後は、電話をするとすぐに迎えに来てくれたので、本当に快適でした。レンタカーを借りてゆっくり周るのも良いですが、チャーター観光ハイヤーもおすすめです！

I thought it wouldn't be great from the start, but it exceeded my expectations. The best experience until now was with the talented guide from Miyazaki Kotsu, who was a classic model of excellence. Even so, I thought it was impressive that they still maintain such a high standard today. This time, I must say, it's truly Okinawa; I doubt anything could surpass this. I take my hat off to Okinawa. I look forward to what lies ahead, overcoming history and current challenges. This was my first time in Okinawa, and I wish I had come sooner.

スタートからやるなと思っていたが、予想を超えた。今までの最高点は宮崎交通の歌の上手なガイドさん、昔ながらの模範的な、それでも今の評価でまだこんないい感じをと思っていたが、今回のはさすが沖縄か、まあこれ以上は無理でしょう。沖縄に脱帽です。歴史と現状を乗り越えての先に期待します。初めての沖縄、もっと早く来たかった。

Saturday, January 14, 2023, in the afternoon. It was a 3-hour voyage. We saw one whale and a mother and calf, plus one male. I was moved when the dark whale appeared. Thank you to the captain and all the staff.

2023.1.14土曜午後。3時間の航海でした。1頭のくじらと親子+雄1頭の3頭。黒々とした鯨が出てきた時は感動しました。船長とスタッフの皆様ありがとうございました。

Originally, I had planned to go to Kouri Island, but it was raining on the day, so I decided not to go. I consulted with the driver, and we set a new destination. Without showing any displeasure, he kindly helped me decide where to go, and we ended up visiting a memorable place. During the drive, he shared various stories with me. He mentioned wanting to take me to recommended spots that aren't in guidebooks. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we couldn't go there, but I truly had a wonderful time. I feel that choosing a charter was definitely the right decision.

If I have another opportunity, I would appreciate your help again! Thank you very much!!!

もともと古宇利島に行く予定だったのですが、当日雨が降っていて、行くのを断念。運転手さんと相談し新たな目的地を設定しました。嫌な顔ひとつせず、親身にどこに行くかの相談にのって下さり、思い出に残る場所に行けました。道中でも様々なお話をして下さりました。ガイドブックには載らないようなオススメの場所も連れていきたいといってくれました。じかんの都合で最終的にそこには行けませんでしたが、ほんとに楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。チャーターを選んで大正解だったなとしみじみ感じています。
また機会がありましたらよろしくお願い致します！
ありがとうございました！！！

On the day of the trip, there were only seven participants, which may be why we set sail on a small boat. We headed out at quite a speed towards the open sea. I had no issues at all, but my family started feeling seasick early on and had a tough time.

As for the whales, I was able to see them several times, but unfortunately, my family didn't see any at all. I definitely recommend participating during the season when you can board a larger cruise.

当日は、７名の参加と少ない参加者となったためか、小さい船での出航となりました。かなりの沖合目指し猛スピードでした。私は全然問題なかったですが、船酔いが前半から始まり、辛い思いを家族はしてました。
肝心のクジラは、私は何度か見れましたが、残念ながら家族は全然見てませんでした。やはり、大型クルーズに乗れる時期の参加をお勧めします。

There was no guide, but it was great that the tour conductor provided various sightseeing information. The submarine ride was changed to a different dinosaur park due to strong winds. I went on December 25, and it's good to have a jacket. Half of the participants were foreigners (from Asia). I would like to join this plan again in 10 years.

ガイドさんはいませんが、添乗員の方がいろいろ観光案内してくれてよかったです。
サブマリンは強風のため別の恐竜パークになりました。
12/25に行きましたが、上着があるといいです。
参加者の半数は外人（アジア）です。
10年後にまたこのプランで参加したいです。

On the day of the event, I was waiting in the hotel lobby, but when the scheduled time came, there was no pickup. I contacted the emergency contact and was told by the first woman I spoke to that there was no reservation! Until now, I had used Veltra for both international and domestic travel without any issues, and it was always very good.

In the end, I found out it was a mistake on the taxi company's part, and the driver arrived late. The substitute driver was kind and courteous, so I was able to enjoy my sightseeing. Although I felt nothing but frustration with the phone response, the driver was excellent, so I decided to give an average rating.

当日、ホテルロビーにて待っていましたが予定時間になってもお迎えが来ず緊急連絡先に連絡して最初に応対した女性から予約されていない！とのお返事。
これまでもベルトラさんで海外、国内利用させて頂いていてなんのトラブルもなくとても良かったのですが。
結局、タクシー会社の手違いだったとわかりドライバーさん遅れて到着。
代打のドライバーさんが親切丁寧でしたので気持ちよく観光することが出来ました。
電話応対に腹立たしさしか感じなかったものの、ドライバーさんが最高でしたので普通の評価にさせていただきました。

Thanks to the tour guide, I was able to participate alone and had a great time. At the Oishi Forest Park, which I had always wanted to visit, I was given recommendations for the best course and enjoyed the stunning view from the observation deck. With the guide's assistance, I was also able to see a large banyan tree.

For lunch, I was very satisfied with the delicious sashimi and fried dishes at a popular restaurant. Each sightseeing spot had ample time allocated, allowing me to explore various attractions.

添乗員さんのお陰でひとり参加でしたがとても楽しめました。ずっと行ってみたかった大石林山ではおすすめコースを教えてもらい、展望台から最高の景色眺めました。また添乗員さんの案内で大きなガジュマルを見に行くことができました。
お昼は人気のお店でおいしいお刺身やフライをいただけて大満足でした。
ひとつひとつの観光地でしっかり時間が確保されていて色々見学できました。

It was my first experience with both kayaking and fishing, but the guide Mizuki and the captain were both wonderful people, and our conversations were enjoyable! They also shared recommendations, which made the trip even more fun! Of course, both kayaking and fishing were enjoyable, and I would love to experience them again if I get the chance to go to Okinawa! Thank you very much!!!

カヤックも船釣りも初体験でしたが、ガイドのみずきさんも船長さんもとても素敵な方でお話も楽しかったです！オススメなども教えていただき、さらに楽しい旅になりました！
もちろんカヤックも釣りも楽しくて、また沖縄に行けたら体験したいです！
ありがとうございました！！！

My wife and I participated together.
It took about an hour to get to the meeting point at Kadena Fishing Port using the route bus from Kencho Kitaguchi Station to Mizugama Station.
On the day we participated, we started with fishing, followed by kayaking. We moved by boat to the fishing spot, but it wasn't a case of catching fish one after another; we caught about 3 to 4 fish in an hour and a half. However, I enjoyed it because we caught fish I had never seen before. For kayaking, we paddled around the mangroves near Kadena Fishing Port. The staff provided thorough instructions, so I was able to experience it without any anxiety. It was a fulfilling experience as we learned about mangroves and saw unique creatures like fiddler crabs and mudskippers that are typical of tidal flats.
Afterward, we had the fish we caught prepared at a nearby restaurant, served as a set meal. In addition to the fish we caught, we also enjoyed sashimi and garlic-grilled fish, making for a hearty meal.

妻と2人で参加しました。
集合場所の嘉手納漁港までは県庁北口駅から水釜駅まで路線バスを利用して約1時間の移動でした。
我々が参加した日は釣りが先で、その後カヤックという順番でした。釣りはポイントまで船で移動して始まりましたが、入れ食いという感じではなく、1時間半ほとで3〜4匹の釣果でした。でも、初めて見るような魚が釣れたので楽しめました。カヤックは嘉手納漁港周辺のマングローブを見に、カヤックで移動しました。スタッフの方が丁寧に教えてくださったので、不安なく体験できました。マングローブの知識を教えてもらったり、シオマネキやトビハゼなど干潟ならではの生き物を見れたりと充実した体験になりました。
その後、近くの食事処で釣った魚を調理してもらい、定食としていただきました。釣った魚以外にもお刺身や魚のガーリック焼きなどが出たのでボリューム満点でした。

This shop is located about a 5-minute walk from Makishi Public Market. My wife and I participated in a shisa-making experience. They were very accommodating with a sudden schedule change, which was a great help.

The shisa-making process is taught carefully through videos, but I was surprised at how much time it actually took to finish. I really felt the dedication involved in making shisa.

Since you can create your own unique shisa, I think it's perfect for making memories. I got a bit carried away and ended up significantly exceeding the planned time. We were scheduled to fly home that day, so we ran out of time to paint them. However, the staff kindly said we could take items worth the cost of the painting (1,100 yen) from the shop's merchandise, so we received a tile for placing the shisa and some glass crafts.

I was told that I could paint them with acrylic paint, so I plan to do that later. I had a very fulfilling time, thank you.

牧志公設市場から５分ほどの商店街内にあるお店。妻と２人でシーサー作り体験に参加しました。当日は急な時間変更にも快く対応してくれて助かりました。
シーサー作りは動画をみながら丁寧に学べますが、作り終わるまでに意外と時間がかかったので驚きました。シーサー作りの地道さを実感できました。
思い思いのシーサーが作れるので、思い出作りには最適だと思います。凝りすぎて予定時間を大幅に超過してしまいました。我々は、その日に飛行機で帰る予定だったので、色付けする時間がなくなってしまいましたが、スタッフさんが本来色付けにかかる費用(1100円)分お店の売り物から持って行って良いと言ってくださったので、シーサーを置く瓦とガラス細工をいただきました。
色はアクリル絵の具で塗ればよいということだったので、また後日塗ろうと思います。
とても充実した時間を過ごせました、ありがとうございました。

The meeting place, Motobu Genki Village, was enjoyable, and the underwater boat was wonderful. The view was so amazing that I could experience it over and over again.

集合場所のもとぶ元気村の施設自体も楽しかったですし、水中ボートも素晴らしかったです
何度でもなりたいくらい、素晴らしい眺めでした

I was glad to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots in Okinawa. With a rental car, it's hard for the driver to take breaks, but traveling by bus allowed me to rest during the one-hour trips, which was really convenient! On the day I participated, the weather was also favorable, and the sea was beautiful, so I felt lucky.

効率よく沖縄の観光名所を巡れて良かったです。
レンタカーだと運転手が休憩をとりにくいですが、バス移動のため1時間程度の移動の時は眠れたりするので楽チンでした！
参加させていただいた日は天候にも恵まれて、とても海も綺麗でラッキーでした。

The guide's voice was beautiful.
The weather was nice, and the tour content was fulfilling.
I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.
Thank you very much.

ガイドさんの声が綺麗
天候がよく、ツアー内容も充実
また、機会が有れば利用したい
ありがとうございました

It was about a 20-minute ride from the port, and there were no waves, so I didn't get seasick. My daughter and I were both excited as it was our first fishing experience. The staff kindly taught us, and when I caught a fish on their rod, I was allowed to reel it in. We also caught a few small ones on our own rods, which was a lot of fun. My daughter wants to go again, and we would like to use this service next time.

港から20分くらいのところ、波もなく船酔いしなかった。娘も私も初の釣り体験で、ドキドキしていた。
親切に教えてくれて、スタッフさんの竿にかかったとき、リールを巻かさせてもらい、自分達の竿にも小さいながら何匹か釣れたから、とても楽しかった。
娘もまた行きたいと次回また利用したいです。

After enjoying the scenery outdoors while moving to a spot with plenty of fish, we entered the submarine room for some fish watching. It was great to see the fish that we usually see in the aquarium swimming right in front of us in the ocean, creating a vivid experience! ✨

魚が多いスポットまでは外で景色を楽しみながらの移動後、潜水艦ルームに入ってお魚ウォッチングでした。
水族館で見る魚が目の前の海で泳いでいて臨場感があって良かったです✨

The guide Q-chan was handsome and his explanations were very easy to understand. I would definitely like to request him again next time.

嫁のコメント
ガイドのQちやん、ハンサムだし、説明がとても分かりやすかったです。
次回も是非、指名したいくらいです。

We gather at Chatan Fishing Port and head to the point by cruiser. They also sell drink-type motion sickness remedies at the reception, so if you forgot yours, you can purchase it here.

We arrive at the point in about an hour. There are many similar cruise ships docked, so it's easy to recognize where we are. At first, we spot a spout from a distance and then get closer. We approached within a meter, and from there, we saw it multiple times. We witnessed the spout and the whale coming up, doing a twist before diving back down several times. Although it wasn't very large, it was quite impressive!

I ended up feeling seasick, but it became a great memory. Even after taking motion sickness medicine, I still got seasick.

北谷漁港に集合してクルーザーでポイントまで向かいます。
受付時にドリンクタイプの酔い止めも販売していますので、忘れた方はここでも購入可能
1時間ほどでポイントに到着。同じようなクルーズ船がたくさん停まっていますのでここだなとわかります。
初めは遠くで潮吹きを発見してその後近くまで行きます
1匹近くまで寄っていきここからは何度も見えました。潮吹きもですし頭を出して1回転ひねってまた入っていく姿を何度も見ました。大きくはなかったですがかなりの迫力！
自分は船酔いしてしまいましたが、いい思い出になりました。
酔い止め飲んでも酔います

We started from our accommodation on an 8-hour course, visiting the Yambaru area, roadside stations, and Kouri Island, and finally toured Nakijin Castle before being taken back to our accommodation.
The driver was friendly and provided announcements about the natural features of the northern side of Okinawa, which is different from the southern side. He also accompanied us to purchase tickets where needed, which was reassuring.
The duration of our stay was flexible, and I thought it might be tight to see everything within the schedule, but thanks to the light traffic, the timing worked out perfectly.
If we have the opportunity again, I would appreciate it.

8時間コースで宿泊地からスタートしてやんばる周辺と道の駅と古宇利島、最後に今帰仁城を巡ってから宿泊地まで送迎していただきました。
運転手さんは気さくな方で、沖縄の南側とは違う北側の自然の特徴をアナウンスしていただいたり、チケットが必要な所では購入場所まで付き添って貰えたので心強かったです。
滞在時間はこちらの自由ですがスケジュール的に全部は厳しいかなとも思いましたが、道路がすいていたのもあってバッチリな時間配分でした。
またご縁がありましたらよろしくお願いします。

Two days ago, there was an article in the newspaper about whales near Okinawa, and I thought it would depend on the captain whether we could find them. Luckily, we saw the whale's blow and a small whale jumping, which made me very satisfied. There was plenty of time for photography, and they provided explanations, so I felt at ease. I highly recommend it.

２日前の新聞に沖縄近海にクジラがきてる記事があり、後は見つける事が出来るかどうか船長次第と思っていたらラッキー
クジラのブロアー、小クジラのジャンプ見せてくれて大満足
撮影タイムもたっぷりと有り、説明付きでしてくれるから安心
おすすめします

It was my first time participating in a VELTRA tour, and I received detailed emails that made me feel at ease until the day of the tour. The transportation during the tour went almost as scheduled, and we were blessed with good weather, making it a wonderful memory.

初めてのVELTRAツアー参加でしたが、丁寧にメイルが届き、参加当日まで安心出来ました。
ツアーの移動もほぼ予定通りで天気にも恵まれて、良い思い出になりました。

I wanted to give my 4-year-old daughter an experience in Okinawa, so we participated in kayaking. My wife and I did the steering ourselves, but she seemed really satisfied with riding a kayak for the first time! Also, the staff member in charge was very polite and kind, which was a great help. If we have the chance, I would like to participate again(^^).

4歳の娘に何か沖縄で体験させてあげたいと思いカヤックに参加。操縦自体は自分と妻でやりましたが、初めて乗るカヤックに凄く満足だったみたいです！また、担当のお兄さんがすごく丁寧で優しくて大変助かりました。機会があればまた参加したいと思います(^^)

We boarded the boat for about a 10-minute ride to the viewpoint, then spent around 20 minutes exploring the underwater observatory and the seabed. After that, we returned to the boat and headed to the disembarkation point. The coral reefs were truly beautiful, and colorful fish swam nearby, making it feel like a different world. I heard that if you're lucky, you might see a sea turtle, but unfortunately, that didn't happen for us. However, after returning to land, I was satisfied to see the sea turtles that are cared for at the Tobu Genki Village.

ビューポイントまで10分くらい船上に乗り移動、そののち海中の展望室から
海底を散策20分くらい、また船上に戻り、解散場所へという行程でした。
サンゴ礁は本当に美しく、きれいな魚も近くを泳いでいてまさに別世界でした。運が良いとウミガメもみられるそうですが・・残念ながらそれはかなわず・・陸に上がってからもとぶ元気村で飼育（？）されているウミガメが見られたので、満足でした。

I was staring at samples in a workspace with a wonderful view of the ocean! I thought it would be difficult, but once I started, I became so engrossed that time flew by. I was able to create wonderful memories with my friend, and it was definitely worth it. I want to go again and make a partner!!!

海の眺めが素敵な作業場でサンプルとにらめっこ！
難しいかなと思っていましたが、やり始めると夢中になり、あっとゆうまに時間が過ぎていきました。
友人と素敵な思い出作りができやった甲斐がありました。
次もまた体験しに行って、相方作りたいです！！！

サービスの人たちは良いです。私たちのために英語を翻訳してくれて、とても感動しました。

service person are good, translate English for us, very touched.

This time, I traveled without a rental car and participated in a tour for the first time.
Although it was from morning until evening, there was not a single wasted movement; it was incredibly efficient!
This tour was perfect for someone like me who is impatient.
However, it might be a bit challenging for those who prefer to take their time or need to walk slowly...

Since the schedule was tight, even for someone like me who doesn't usually take their time, I didn't have any extra time.
It wasn't my first time visiting these places, and I wasn't looking to relax, so it felt great to see them again after a while! The time management was excellent!
Moreover, on the way back, we took the highway and had a light sandwich (which was simple but delicious), and with the entrance fees and everything included, along with a guide, this price... is too cheap!!
I thought that from now on, tours might be the way to go for sightseeing in Okinawa!

今回レンタカーなしでの旅行にしたので初めてツアーに参加しました。
朝から夕方までの時間ですが何ひとつ無駄な動きはなく、ものすごく効率的でした！
せっかちの私にはピッタリのツアーです。
もしかすると、ゆっくりめに見たい方、ゆっくり歩かないといけない方にはちょっと大変かもしれません…

時間がタイトなので、せっかちでゆっくり見たつもりは全くない私でも時間が余ることはなかったです。
私にとっては初めて行く場所な訳でもなく、のんびりしたい訳ではなかったので久々にまた見れた〜！って感じで時間配分とっても良かったです！
しかも帰りは高速乗って帰って軽食のサンドイッチ(シンプルで美味しかったです)もあり、入館料もろもろ入ってガイドさんもついてこの値段…安すぎます！！
これから沖縄観光はツアーでいいかも！って思いました！！

The bus guide was very cheerful, and it was an enjoyable tour. I had expected a tour where everyone would sing together, but it was nothing like that. The bus guide efficiently explained the points to note before arrival and gave advice on how to explore the sightseeing spots, as well as recommendations for souvenirs and other attractions, making it a relaxed tour where we mostly listened.

For those who want to take their time, the duration might feel a bit short, but if you follow the advice given, you can have a fulfilling experience. It's perfect for those who don't want to drive.

There were many foreign visitors, and although I didn't speak directly with them, the guide's English was impressive. We enjoyed beautiful views of the sea from the boat, leisurely ate barbecue, rode kickboards along the Fukugi tree-lined path (which was an option on the bus for 1,000 yen per person), and explored the aquarium early before relaxing at a café. We ended the day with a light look at the illuminations in American Village.

At first, I was scared of the instability of the kickboard, and there were moments when I felt I might inconvenience others due to the number of people and cars around. However, the staff at the Fukugi tree-lined path provided individual guidance and taught us routes suitable for beginners.

Since I went during the New Year holidays and didn't have a rental car, I think the tour was the best option due to the holiday schedule. It's not for those who want to fully enjoy the aquarium, but it's highly recommended for those who want to casually visit sightseeing spots. Thank you to the bus guide and the driver!

とても明るいバスガイドさんで楽しいツアーだった。みんなで歌うようなツアーを予想して構えていたが全くそうではなく、バスガイドさんがてきぱき到着前に注意点を説明して観光地の周り方のアドバイスをしたりお土産や他の観光地についておすすめしてくれたりでほぼ聴くだけのリラックスしたツアーだった。
時間はゆっくり見たい人なら少し足りないくらいで、アドバイス通りに動けば充実した時間を過ごせた。運転したくない人には最適。
外国の方が多く、私は直接話すことはなかったがガイドさんの英語がかっこよかった。
船できれいな海を見て、焼肉をゆっくり食べて、フクギ並木でキックボードに乗り（バス内で選択・1人料金1000円）、水族館では早めに周ってカフェでゆっくり、アメリカンビレッジで軽くイルミネーションを見て終わり。
キックボードは最初不安定さが怖く、人と車も多くて迷惑をかけてしまう場面があったが、フクギ並木の店員さんが個別指導と慣れない人向けルートを教えてくれた。
年末年始に行ったのでレンタカーがなく、バスも祝日ダイヤのため、ツアーは最適解だったと思う。
水族館を満喫したい人向けではないが、さらっと観光地を巡りたい人にはとてもいいのでおすすめです。
バスガイドさん運転手さんありがとうございました。

Great cost performance.
The guide did a great job.

I participated for a friend visiting Okinawa for the first time.
It was a fun and productive tour for the day.
I highly recommend it!

コスパ最高
ガイドさんグッジョブ

沖縄初めての友人の為参加しました
一日楽しく有効なツアーでした。
ぜひぜひお勧めします。

I'm glad we discovered the whales quickly! The staff member was guiding us on the direction whenever a whale appeared, so we were able to see them multiple times! The kids took motion sickness medication, but I definitely think adults need it too.

クジラ発見が早くてよかったです！
お姉さんがクジラがでる度方向を教えてくれてたので何回も見れました！
子供は酔い止め飲んでましたが、大人も酔い止めは確実に必要だと思いました。
