    Amazing half day

    Mami was a great tour guide. Loved the kayak specifically with a brief visit to a remote and isolated beach. Gorgeous. Highly recommend!

    Must-do activity

    Super fun experience with gorgeous sights of the islands and the fish below. Our guide Rina was very kind and accommodating every step of the way. It does require a lot of rowing and swimming, so good physical health is recommended.

    こんにちは。うれしいお声ありがとうございます。 Hello! Thank you so much for your kind review. 私自身英語が苦手なのですが、その中でも少しでも楽しんでもらえたらという気持ちでツアーを行っているので、そう言ってもらえてとても嬉しいです(^^) My English is not perfect, but I always do my best to make everyone enjoy the tour, so your words really make me happy(^^) 少し風の強い日でもあったので、漕いだり泳いだりするのは大変だったかと思います。 It was a bit windy that day, so I think the paddling and swimming were quite challenging. ぜひ来年は穏やかな日にツアーできたらいいですね♪ I hope we can do the tour again on a calmer day next year♪ また来年も会えることを楽しみにしております。 I’m looking forward to seeing you again next year!

    One of the best experiences of my life

    Shin-san was an absolutely amazing tour guide for an incredible snorkeling experience. I went with my brother; we both had ample kayak and snorkel experience so we were able to comfortably free dive to a tour that was perfectly catered to our skill level. Shin-san was very considerate when checking in on my ability before beginning a hike, so I was able to sit out the portion that had more climbing but my brother absolutely loved that part (I was able to sit in the shade and watch the hermit crabs wake up that was pointed out before). Shin-san took amazing pictures of everyone at no additional charge, and pointed out incredible animals and fauna while encouraging respect for the island and coral. Being able to say I’ve swam with a turtle is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I was completely blown away with this tour and would highly recommend it.
