Trekking in Iriomote IslandTour Reviews and Testimonials
Tomo
Two adults, two elementary school students, and one 6-year-old participated.
The participants were divided into two groups: one with three people and one with two.
We were able to go deep into the mangrove forest and really enjoy nature!
They carefully explained tips and tricks for using it, so I was able to operate it more smoothly than I expected, and
I found myself wanting to do it again.
On Baraas Island, the guide uses a large, sturdy inner tube to take you to the best snorkeling spots.
Since they’ll take you there, even elementary school students and 6-year-olds can just dip their faces in the water, and
They were thrilled because they got to go snorkeling.
Also, the guide used a GoPro to take family photos and film the fish, and
We made some great memories with these beautiful photos and videos!
So-chan, our guide! Thank you for such a fun time!
Next time, I'd like to join the night tour.

On August 15, I went kayaking and snorkeling on Iriomote Island. The weather was great, I got to see the mangroves up close, and while snorkeling, I experienced the crystal-clear ocean—it made for some wonderful memories. Thank you so much to Kaori, who led the tour! She was very kind and created an environment that made it easy for us to enjoy the experience.

I joined snorkeling and canoeing with my 4th grade son. It was a busy day because of the summer vacation, but the PiPi guides were very efficient and we were able to enjoy our time freely without crowding. Our guide, Mickey, was very knowledgeable about both coral reefs and mangroves, so my son, who is in 4th grade, and I, who is an adult, could enjoy the great nature of Iriomote Island. We were blessed with good weather, but it was truly a memorable day, thank you Mickey! I recommend this tour for all ages!

I joined the Barasu Island snorkeling & mangrove canoeing tour!
I was anxious because I am a snorkeling beginner and cannot swim, but our guide, Kiyoto, carefully and gently guided us and made the experience enjoyable.
The handsome guide, Kiyoto-san's wonderful smile made the trip even more memorable.

My husband and I joined the tour with our 8 and 5 year old sons. The children, who love living things, were very excited with a twinkle in their eyes. We found coconut crabs, hawksbill spiders, scorpions, and more. The starry sky was also amazing. The children want to go again! They are saying "I want to go back! They were very attentive and safe. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!

If I went all the way to Iriomote Island, I wanted to enjoy the night tour as well!
As a result, it was a great decision to participate!
We were introduced to the sagaribana, which can only be seen at this time of the year! It was so beautiful!
The starry sky was amazing. It was the best starry sky I have ever seen!
I will visit again to see this view!

Under the guidance of enthusiastic guides, we enjoyed a mysterious experience unique to Iriomote Island at night. We were fascinated by the graceful appearance of sagaribana blooming after sunset and the star-filled sky floating in the darkness of the jungle. Thanks to the guide's abundant knowledge and careful explanations, we were able to fully enjoy the charm of Iriomote Island, which is different from that of the daytime, on this wonderful night tour.

We had planned to participate only in the night tour, but we suddenly decided to join this tour because it was the season of sagaribana. It was a fulfilling night with nocturnal creatures and beautiful stars. I would like to visit Iriomote Island again!
I went on a tour that included canyoning and sightseeing on Yufu Island.
Souichirou's guidance was very thoughtful, and I was able to enjoy myself with complete peace of mind.
The spots where you can jump into the river are especially thrilling!
The whole family was thrilled by this experience, which we don't usually get to have.
Thank you for the wonderful memories!
