Good to take advantage of the nighttime during the trip! - The other day I went on a tour of Iriomote Island, and I didn't understand Japanese, so I just liked the tour. However, the Ishigaki Night Jungle Tour is conducted in English, so it was good to understand the guide's explanation and feel the tour fully. The explanation that there was not much life in early March was convinced enough, and the weather was not good for the last few days, but it was good to be able to observe many stars in the night sky. The Akaris who was the guide laughed a lot and the whole tour was comfortable and pleased!

The Stars Are Beautiful - The stars were beautiful. It's a pity I didn't see the palm crabs. But it was fun.

Really unusual and enjoyable tour - It was my first jungle tour and I had a really good time. It was an amazing experience. It was a fun tour with a safe insert and a fun English and Korean explanation. Living and seeing a lot of hard-to-see creatures and nature will be very memorable.

Overwhelmed in the jungle. - Although many reptiles have not seen many animals but snakes. I saw bats and the guide was kind. I didn't know how long it was.

Jungle Exploration - I travelled with my mum and we were in a small group with two other people, being lead by our amazing tour guide Kameyama Akari! It was rainy season, so the sky was not clear enough for stargazing, so we went exploring through the jungle. It was interesting to learn a bit about Ishigaki's nature and history whilst looking for some wildlife!

Jungle Exploration - We came during rainy season, so we were unable to do the stargazing but the Jungle exploration was just as fun! It was very fun and interesting to try and find the few creatures natural to Ishigaki island as well as learning some history. Thank you to Kameyama Akari for being our tour guide! Her English is great and she is a fun person to talk to. 😊

Best Night Jungle Tour!! - I applied for a jungle tour because I wanted to have fun. I was only thinking about language, but I wanted Japanese or English as an English guide. She was a female guide. She explained well in English and talked well with the child. It was a very satisfying tour. The day was cloudy and I didn't see the stars, but I'd like to apply again next time.

Recommended excursion - I booked the night hike relatively spontaneously, and it was the right decision. Although we didn't see many animals, the tour was still interesting and the stargazing really nice. Our guide was very motivated and likeable and spoke good English. Absolutely recommend!

Recommended for those who love exploring 👍 - The weather was clear and the stars were beautifully poured out, and in the cave we could encounter coconut crabs and bats following the guidance of the guide. Ordinary city life and an entirely unique experience.
