Fun and unique - Our group wasn't very big so we got a good personalized tour, our guides were very nice and professional. We didn't get to see many stars because of the clouds, but we will just have to go back. We did get to see some animals, though, so that was cool. Also, it was incredibly nice of him to pick us up from our hotel.

An experience at the top! - We really enjoyed this visit! Taku was able to introduce us to a coconut crab and gave us a lot of interesting information about the local flora and fauna. A great night out in the jungle. In short, really a great time with Taku, thank you very much!!! 😁😁

Must go tour! - We were very excited to see Coconut crabs and starry sky with Taku San. He is such an amazing tour guide not hesitates going into jungle or climbing a tree to show us Coconut crabs. Awesome! And he is a good photographer. We got a beautiful photo with starry night background by him. I strongly recommend you to take this trip snd meet him when you go to Mitakojima!

Enjoy nature and starry skies on Miyakojima - Thanks to Takuma's attentive guide, I was able to enjoy the beautiful starry sky and nature of Miyakojima. I was also very satisfied with the wonderful pictures of the starry sky. I was able to remember the explanation and enjoy it again when I found bugs and plants during the subsequent trip. I attended the first day of the trip and I feel it was a good start.

Unforgettable Experience with Great Guide and Beautiful Night Sky - I joined this tour and it was such a fun and memorable experience! We got to see many interesting creatures, and we were very lucky to spot a coconut crab. The guide spoke excellent English and gave detailed explanations for both English and Japanese speakers, which made it easy for everyone to enjoy. He also helped us take lots of beautiful photos — the night sky here is incredible, with almost no artificial light, so the stars were stunning. Definitely a unique and worthwhile experience. Highly recommended! 🌌✨

Walking with a flashlight in a quiet night is a relaxing experience. - I had fun that night. The guide is a little Japanese brother named Taku, who speaks good English. The group also packs transfers, which are especially convenient for those who don't have a rental car. We went to the Imgya marine park, where we could see lots of stars in fine weather and even the Milky Way with the naked eye. On the terrace Taku helped me take very amazing pictures of the stars. He also tried hard to find coconut crabs but couldn't find one, but the other regiments found one and saw it anyway ~ It was a relaxing experience to hike with everyone by flashlight in the quiet night.

Great experience! - My husband and i travelled to Miyakojima and we wanted to learn and see more about the animals in the island. This jungle tour was a pleasant surprise! Taku our tour guide took us to the Igmyaa Parc where we saw so many animals including few blue crabs (coconut crab)!! The guide took the time to explain to us the different animals we saw. The last part of the tour was star gazing where our guide took a very nice picture of us with the stars. Taku was very helpful in recommending other beaches to see in the island as well as our pick up and drop off. I would recommend this activity to anyone visiting Miyakojima!

jungle adventure - Taku was an exceptional guide for our jungle adventure! He is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and has such a wonderful personality—he made sure every member of our group felt cared for. What stood out most was his attentiveness: when explaining things to local friends in Japanese, he always took the time to rephrase and translate everything into English for the foreign members of our team, so no one missed out on any details. Thank you so much, Taku—you’re such a warm, sunny young man! We hope you always get to enjoy the beauty of nature here and live a happy, fulfilling life.
