Great jungle experience - An exceptional experience to visiting the jungle and saw some many animals. The tour guide, Sebastian and his fellows are really great and responsible. You don’t need to prepare anything and you will receive an unexpected experience.

Adventure in the night! - It was a wonderful experience! The thought of exploring the jungle after dark was already exciting and also a little bit frightening, but the tour was even better! Our guide Sebastian was very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to spot wildlife. He also gave us lots of tips and information about local activities. The absolute Highlight was encountering coconut crabs! Our guide showed us where to look for them, explained about their life and habits and even found one to see up close! I highly recommend this tour, which is very easily accessible and very rewarding!

Jungle Night Tour☆Best - A jungle in complete darkness, somewhere you would never go in private! I really enjoyed exploring with a flashlight in one hand and lighting up everywhere, feeling like a child again. I was surprised and happy to see palm crabs for the first time! Even in the moving car, he told me many recommended shops on Ishigaki Island, and I was able to go there the next day. I fell in love with Ishigaki Island! I'll be back. Thank you very much.

Best night tour‼️The guide is even better‼️ - This is my second trip to Ishigaki Island, and I found the night jungle tour interesting, so I applied to pipi, who had a good word of mouth. Mr. Diego❗ He was a very friendly and kind man who talked a lot throughout and time passed so quickly. What the hell are you doing on a cliff? Climbing up and being prey. They went looking for me…I had perfect potential. I would love to ask you again next time.

Jungle experience at night - Unfortunately, we couldn't see the starry sky due to the cloudy sky, but we were able to explore the jungle at night, which we could not enter on our own, and observe the unique flora and fauna of Ishigaki Island. The guide was knowledgeable and full of humor, and I was able to enjoy myself on the bus home. I thought I'd like to take part because I think we'll find something different again in the summer!

Starry Sky and Jungle Night Tour - I was able to go to places I don't usually go and had a valuable experience! I'm excited because I use my flashlight to go through dark places. We went to the beach, forest, cave, etc. ^^ This time it was cloudy and we couldn't see the stars, but the guide was very knowledgeable about plants and organisms and it was interesting!

Encountered a giant palm crab - We couldn't see the starry sky because of the cloudy sky, but we had more fun than we thought! The guide's talk on the bus was very interesting, and I was able to learn about the best spots to see rice shops and hidden places! I had given up on finding the coconut crabs as well because I couldn't find them, but the staff found them at the end and I really enjoyed it!! The staff were very knowledgeable about the creatures and plants of Ishigaki Island, and I could not get enough of them during the tour! They say you can see a variety of creatures in summer, so I hope we can go there next!

Jungle Night Tour - Although I couldn't see the starry sky due to the cloudy and rainy weather, it was a very valuable experience to be able to touch and feel the scenery, plants and living things unique to Ishigaki Island. The guide's commentary and talk were so interesting and interesting that I really enjoyed it. Now I want to come back in the summer.

Night Jungle - Night jungle is hard to experience. It was an extraordinary space! The guides were very kind and respectful and told us many interesting things about Ishigaki Island while we were on the move. I was not able to see the creatures and stars due to the weather, but I was able to fully enjoy it

Not worth the cost and disorganized - Definitely not worth $135. Basically a short walk, less than 1 km to the beach, look at the stars, if any, then go back up. Also, it was very disorganized. After being picked up at the meeting point, we had to drive bak to the office to get more boots, which weren't even necessary. The guides wore flip flops. It took an additional 40 minutes to get more boots for everyone. The guides were nice and spoke good English but definitely not worth the cost. Maybe $10 per person would be fair.
