Iriomotejima/Half-day Morning]Mangrove Canoeing & Trekking Course to Pinaisara Falls The first one to arrive first wins!

I had booked another tour, but was told the day before that it could not be accommodated because it included elderly people, so I requested it on short notice and they were very courteous. They were also very open to questions from my mother, who is a very curious person, They were also very attentive to my wife who had a lot of trouble with tracking. I am very grateful to them. Thank you very much for the guide, Masato-san.

My grandma, who is in her 70s and very active, joined the tour with me. I decided to participate in the tour after having had a chance to communicate with them before we booked the tour. I didn't have to worry about anything because I was actually talked to by the tour guide. We were also very satisfied with the tour as we learned about crabs and lizards when we told them that our child liked them! We had a lot of fun and learned a lot of things, and everyone from teens to 70s enjoyed the tour! I would like to use this tour again!

The weather was cloudy, but we were very happy to go kayaking and trekking to Pinaisara Falls.　If the temperature was warm enough, we could go into the waterfall basin, but it was a little chilly, so we did not go in. At the waterfall basin, the guide made Yaeyama Soki Soba (buckwheat noodles) to warm me up.　I was alone, but the guide took pictures for me and I enjoyed the tour. I chose to use a kayak for one person, so my arms were quite tired from paddling both to and from the tour. The guide lends you marine shoes and water proof shoes. I used the shoes to get to the waterfall, and they were good because they were not slippery. You need to be careful not to drop your phone or anything in the river. The guide was kind and very nice.

Even for those of us who are older, we had a lot of fun if we put in a little effort. The kayaking was elegant and fun, and the 2.5 hour trek to Pinaisara Falls was very enjoyable. Our guide, Meg, was cheerful, friendly, and very attentive to our needs.

This is a half-day course and requires a certain level of physical fitness. However, there were mothers with small children, so no special physical fitness is required. The guide was very attentive to the participants and kept an eye on our pace. I paddled a single kayak, then trekked uphill (slippery) for not too long and managed to reach Pinaisara Falls. The waterfalls were fantastic. I would recommend joining the tour even if it is a bit strenuous. Seeing is believing. It will be a memory that will last a lifetime.

I am not used to exercise, but it was not as steep as I thought it would be and I was able to reach the waterfall basin safely. It is possible to participate in the tour as a day trip from Ishigaki Island, and no entry application is required, so it is easy. It was a very satisfying tour not only because I could experience the great nature but also because I had delicious Yaeyama soba for lunch.

I joined a family of three in late March. We had one guide and a group of seven participants. Before departure, we were checked by the warden for entry restrictions that started in March. We had no problem since we had gone through the entry application procedure. On the day of the tour, the temperature was not so high yet, but the sun was warm and the weather was wonderful. It was my first time canoeing and I was worried about my physical fitness, but there was almost no current and I was able to enjoy the scenery and take pictures of my family with plenty of time to spare. The guide was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information. The Pinaisara Falls were so powerful that we saw crested serpent eagles flying over the top of the falls. Young people from another tour were jumping into the basin of the waterfall. They looked cold but seemed to be having fun. The guide made hot drinks for us at the waterfall basin. It was very delicious. It was the most memorable experience of the trip.

　The canoeing and walking time went by in the blink of an eye as our guide explained everything in detail and in a fun way. The waterfall was amazing to see up close, and the Okinawan soba noodles I had while watching the waterfall soaked into my slightly chilled body. 　Thank you very much for a wonderful time.

Next time I want to try trekking to the top of the waterfall.

This is my third visit to Iriomote Island. I have visited the waterfalls twice before, but finally I was able to join a tour to Pinaisara Falls. As it happened that my wife and I were alone, we could enjoy the tour at our own pace.

As a memory of Ishigaki Island, my family of three joined the half-day tour of canoeing & trekking and Pinaisara Falls. It was quite difficult to paddle the canoe, but the guide was very attentive and taught us how to do it. The guide also explained about subtropical creatures and plants, which I saw for the first time and learned a lot. The sense of accomplishment when we reached the waterfall was indescribable. My 9 year old daughter said it was her most memorable experience in Ishigaki Island and she wants to go back next year. The two adults also had a great time. If we have a chance to go back to Ishigaki Island next year, I would like to stay here again. Thank you very much.

First of all, it was very peaceful to canoe slowly along the river where mangroves grow thickly, and we could feel the subtropical nature to the fullest.

We were a 62 year old couple. First of all, it was our first experience canoeing. The guide was very good at teaching us and we had no worries. In one place where the wind was strong, he attached a rope and pulled us. He was very reliable! The rest of the tour was quiet without waves as shown in the pictures of the activity guide, and I was impressed by the great nature of Iriomote Island. Climbing up the rugged narrow road, we came to Pinaisara Falls. It was bigger than I imagined and I was again impressed by the great nature of Iriomote Island! You can go right under the waterfall, which is hard to experience anywhere else. The guide taught us many things along the way, and I was really glad that I came!

Although the canoeing and trekking was in the rain on the way there, we were able to see the powerful waterfalls and thought we were on a good tour. I also appreciated the fact that they lent us rain gear to protect us from the cold!　I thought I had enough time to spare because the tour was a half-day course, but the 20-minute trek one way was more strenuous than I had imagined because of the height difference (^o^).

I went there after signing up for the morning canoeing and trekking tour to the waterfall basin. It had rained and the water was rising, I was overwhelmed by the power that far exceeded my imagination! The waterfall basin was filled with stormy winds and roaring sounds reminiscent of a typhoon, I felt a little scared. I was disappointed that it was raining on the day of the tour, But after experiencing the power of the swollen Pinaisara Falls I felt it was a good thing that it was raining! The jungle is like a place that needs rain, It was a great experience.

Pinaisara Canoeing was a lot of fun. I was a little worried because it had rained heavily the day before, but the day of the tour was sunny and we were able to canoe comfortably. There was no wind in the mangrove and it was very cool in the shade. After canoeing, we walked along a steep path to the waterfall. There were rocks and puddles underfoot, but thanks to the felt shoes we were provided, we were able to walk without slipping. The Pinaisara Falls are very impressive! Even standing 30 meters from the waterfall basin, the spray was incredible! We were given a strong power and energy to share. It was a lot of fun!

This is S&S with two participants on the morning of 7/6. Our guide was Ms. Yukorin. We had been dating for 2.5 years and this was our first trip together. We were in a corona and couldn't move as much as we wanted. I couldn't move around as much as I wanted, and I was surrounded by invisible walls. We started planning months in advance to go to Iriomote, which we had been longing for. Iriomote, which she had longed for. She was going to Okinawa for the first time, and she had never been to the ocean, canoeing, or trekking. Iriomote Island is my favorite natural place in Japan. We both forgot all our daily fatigue and immersed ourselves in the bare nature ^ ^. We were also happy to hit the season of sagaribana. It was thanks to our guide, Yukarin, that we were able to enjoy everything 120%. All the time we were talking about how lucky we were to have Yuukarin as our guide. It was a busy season and there were many guides working, but the three groups that were there at that time definitely became fans of Pinaisara trekking thanks to YUUKORIN. The moderate conversation, explanation, distance, and care, I would definitely join YUKORIN's tour again, so Please stay in Iriomote Island or somewhere else in the future ^! Thank you for the best summer. I will work hard again!

We applied for this tour through an introduction from the inn. Since it was off-season on a weekday, the river and waterfall were completely deserted, so we had plenty of time to enjoy the tour. There were lots of lectures about plants and islands along the way, and the lunch of Soki Soba and tea time at the waterfall was great. The weather was rainy at times, so we didn't have blue sky and blue sea, but we could spend a rich day enjoying the great nature of Iriomote Island.
