*Please note that shuttle service will be suspended on Sunday, April 13, 2025, due to traffic restrictions for the Ishigaki Island Triathlon. This plan includes a water buffalo cart tour on Taketomi Island, a self-guided exploration with rental bicycles, and a ferry ticket between Ishigaki and Taketomi Island. You will leisurely explore the village with its vivid red-tiled roofs contrasting against the blue sky while riding the water buffalo cart. Enjoy the guide’s narration with the gentle sound of the sanshin (traditional Okinawan instrument) in the background. With multiple start times available, it’s easy to combine this with other activities! The convenient rental bicycles allow you to visit places like the shallow Kondoi Beach, Kaiji Beach, known for its "star sand," cafes with sea views, and charming souvenir shops. Make the most of your time on this island, which still retains the original Okinawan scenery!

    どちらもやるべき!有意義な時間が過ごせました。

    ホテル送迎、フェリー、水牛、レンタサイクルがセットになったお得なプランでした。水牛車観光は人の良いお兄さんの楽しいお話と上手な歌声で良い時間を過ごせました。レンタサイクルは暑い日だったのでどうかなと思ったけど、乗ってる時間は楽しく、左程暑さを感じず、各スポットまで自転車を走らせ海の美しさに感動したり、子供と星砂を拾ったり、海水浴をしたりと充実した1日でした。

    楽だった

    ホテルへの送迎つきでとても楽でした。 自転車のレンタル場所だけ別の場所だったのが少しわかりにくかったです。

    ホテルまで送迎付きで嬉しい

    泊まるホテルによっては送迎つきなのが嬉しかったです。最高に綺麗なビーチを見れて、水牛車にも乗れて良い思い出になりました。

    初めての石垣島&竹富島

    初めての利用で不安がありましたが、ホテルから送迎していただいたドライバーさんが、港に到着すると具志堅銅像とカウンターまで案内してもらい、気持ちよく利用する事が出来ました。 有り難う御座いました。 来年も利用したいと思います。

    家族旅行

    予約していた時間より早く着いてしまい、今、出る船に乗せて欲しい。とお願いしたら、すぐに対応していただき、乗る事ができました。帰りは、ちょうど良い時間のシャトルバスがなくて、歩いて港までいったけど、そんに遠いわけでもなかったので、良かったです。 水牛も歌もお話しも面白くて楽しかったです。
