Recommended points <Our most popular course> Mangrove canoeing, jungle trekking, scenic spots, and waterfall play. This course is packed with elements that will make first-time visitors to Iriomote Island "addicted" to Iriomote Island. Moreover, the event takes place at Pinaisara Falls, the most popular spot on Iriomote Island. This is a point that we would like first-time visitors to visit first. <Comparison points with other companies> ・We have a tour base near Uehara Port. We take enough time to manage your valuables and fit rental items (backpacks, shoes, life jackets, etc.), so you can depart the tour with peace of mind. In addition, there are three shower rooms for participants only after the tour, so you will not be sent to the port wearing dirty clothes. ・One of our features is that we have many tour applications for one person. If there is only one person booked on the day of the tour... Don't worry. Even if there is only one person, the guide will guide you as usual. ・Compare the target age with other stores. We set it to 10 to 59 years old. Therefore, you will not be with small children (from infants to early elementary school students) or elderly people in other groups, so you can enjoy the tour at the same pace and with the same topics to a certain extent. Please contact us in advance if there are participants outside the target age range. We may be able to accommodate by dividing the group. ・For lunch, the guide will prepare Yaeyama soba noodles cooked locally at Pinaisara Falls. The guide's large backpack contains not only water and ingredients, but also a pot and a burner. The ingredients are also cooked by our staff using a pressure cooker. The handmade dumplings that you eat at the waterfall basin are made in about an hour on the morning of the tour. Thanks to you, they are very popular. ・Our shop is a safety measure excellent business designated by the Okinawa Prefectural Public Safety Commission. In bad weather, the tour will be held while judging whether it is safe to hold the tour, as well as whether the guests can enjoy it.
The entire trekking trip takes about three hours. The canoe ride takes about 40 minutes one way. Since this is a tour for beginners, the guide will thoroughly check your equipment, clothing, and belongings before departure on a tour-by-tour basis. After the tour, you will have time to wash off sweat and mud in the shower and change clothes, so you can smoothly switch your mind to your next activity, such as dinner. I think it is a technique that can only be achieved with over 20 years of business experience, as we are conscious of and practice minimizing the stress that may occur to tour participants not only during the tour, but also before and after the tour.
The most enjoyable part of the trek to Pinaisara Falls is the exciting lunch. The guide walking at the front of the group carries a large backpack. Depending on the number of participants, it can weigh nearly 15 kg. The backpack is packed with ingredients, water, a pot, a bowl, a gas stove, and more. The soba noodles cooked above the falls contain rafute (braised pork), which the staff has prepared with great care. This Yaeyama soba with rafute is very popular, and some people join the tour just to eat it above the falls. Our restaurant also serves special dumplings that the staff made in an hour before the tour departs, right at the waterfall basin. In order to make the dumplings wrapped in shell ginger leaves before the tour departs, the staff must gather earlier than other restaurants, so they have to start preparing early in the morning. However, they are willing to put in the effort because they are receiving a high tour fee from the tour participants. Another way to prepare for the tour efficiently is to buy some snacks at the supermarket. We will do our best to provide the best hospitality possible so that you can enjoy your day tour to the fullest.
Worried about the weather on the day of your tour? The weather forecast has been showing rain for several days. If you are considering comparing tours similar to our shop and other shops, please research in detail how to deal with bad weather. Each shop has its own response. We will always send you a message the day before the tour. If the forecast is for bad weather on the day of the tour, we will send you a detailed message based on our 20 years of experience in sales and provide an easy-to-understand explanation over the phone. It is OK to cancel at this point. No cancellation fee will be charged. The advantage of being able to cancel the day before is that you can change to another plan. The advantage for guests is that they will not be busy on the day of the tour, such as giving up on a tour on Iriomote Island and choosing to rent a car for sightseeing on Ishigaki Island. If you are willing to participate in the tour knowing that the weather will be bad, we will make a final confirmation around 6:00 in the morning on the day of the tour, referring to the rain from the previous night and the latest weather forecast. We may decide to cancel depending on the situation at that time, but even if it is held, please enjoy it within a reasonable range.
