    あっという間でした

    初心者でもまったりと楽しめるカヌーと、ちょうど良い運動量のトレッキングコースでした! あっという間だったので、個人的にはもう少し遊びたかったです。

    コロナも落ち着き、子育ても落ち着き行きたかった西表島に行くことができました。

    私は、ずっと西表島に行きたいと思っていました。この口コミを見てサンガラの滝へのトレッキングに参加しました。当日は、雨が降ったり、晴れたり西表島の表情が味わえる日でした。参加者は私独りでしたがマリンプラスのガイドさんが丁寧に解説、接していただき充実した時間をを過ごしました。カヌーに乗ったり滝に打たれたり初めてのことばかり体験しました。午後はオプションで鍾乳洞ツアーに行きました。これがなかなか西表島のサイケデリックな魅力があって良かったです。西表島にテキパキとした動きで安全に連れて行っていただいた八重山観光フェリーの皆様も感謝です。ありがとうございました。

    えっ、そうなの?

    西表島の自然を満喫出来て大変満足のいく内容でした! ガイドの方もペースに合わせてツアーを進めていただき安心できました! カヌーって・・・停泊する場所が合ると思っていたのですが、川のど真ん中に停泊して、そこから川へドボン!えっ?っと思いましたが、これが大自然を楽しむと言うことなんですね~ また機会を作って絶対行きたい!と思うような体験でした!
