This is a plan worth considering if you want to make the most of your time on Ishigaki Island with family or friends. Since it combines an afternoon private tour with a sunset dinner, it’s sure to be a special experience for everyone. Not only can you enjoy lobster and Ishigaki beef for dinner, but the round-trip transportation to and from the restaurant is also included—a reassuring perk. This seems like a great option for anyone looking for a memorable travel experience.

Another convenient feature is the round-trip transportation to and from the restaurant. From activities to dining, this package is perfect for those who want to make the most of their day on the trip.

We went as a group of friends! Since it was such a special trip, we decided to book the whole tour just for ourselves—and it was the best decision ever. Having the tour all to ourselves meant we could relax and enjoy ourselves without worrying about anyone else, and we were so happy to have so many photos taken of us. The restaurant we went to in the evening was super stylish, and it was absolutely amazing to toast together while watching the sunset! The included transportation was also a huge help.

We took this tour on a family vacation. Since it was a private tour, we didn’t have to worry about others around us and could enjoy ourselves at our own pace, which was great. The guide was very kind, and our whole family was completely satisfied! After the tour, we had a delicious dinner at a wonderful restaurant, and since they provided a ride back, getting around was a breeze. It made for a wonderful family memory.

Since this was a trip for three generations of our family, we chose a charter so we wouldn’t have to worry about disturbing other guests. They tailored the itinerary so that everyone—from children to seniors—could enjoy themselves without any strain, and it was the perfect choice. The round-trip transportation to and from the restaurant for dinner after our activities made getting there incredibly easy. The dishes, created under the supervision of a Michelin-starred chef, were exquisite, and the whole family was thrilled, saying, “We’re so glad we came.”

友人グループで貸切チャーターを利用しました！自分たちのペースや希望に合わせてツアーを組んでもらえたので、周りを気にせず思いっきり羽を伸ばせました。午後半日たっぷりプライベート感を満喫した後は、無料送迎でレストランへ。送迎付きなのでお酒も気にせず楽しめましたし、豪華な石垣牛とロブスターのディナーまで含めて完璧なプライベート旅になりました！

I didn't have an image of trekking in Ishigaki Island, but it was a good decision to join.
Our guide kindly explained about the plants and Ishigaki Island.
They also had thorough safety controls in place and checked with us repeatedly about our physical condition and walking speed.
It was really nice, including the tour guide, not to mention the scenery.

It was the start of a great day! I usually climb mountains on my days off, but this was my first time to try trekking on Ishigaki Island!
It was really nice with lots of negative ions! Best morning activity!

Three generations of parents and children joined us. We enjoyed the canoe cruising with the care of the grandparents, but it was enjoyable enough!
Also, the charter plan allowed us to adjust to the pace of the children and their parents.

Went to Ishigaki Island for a YouTube shoot!
It was difficult to take pictures when there were other customers around. I was able to get some good shots, so I will upload them soon. I may go to Ishigaki Island again. Please let me know when you do!
