  Xander is the most friendly tour guide you would ever meet. He is relaxed; informative yet flexible with his tour schedule. Most travelers like his snacks and drinks stored in the back compartment of his van. His pre-tour communication is clear and you are assured you would not be left out in your shore excursion.

  Ishigaki Island Tours did a great job with our tour. Very clean van took 9 of us across the island, stopping for views and experiences. Sander, our driver/guide was friendly, spoke English well, and had water and snacks to get us through the day. The island is surprisingly tropical, and the van was kept comfortable all day. A really good experience!

  I had the most fun filled day. Sander was great tour guide. The tour was well organized and also great introductory video while you are in the van. Some great beaches and cliff with lighthouse view were amazing. I even spent time with squirrel monkeys in Yaima village. They were so adorable!!!!One even climbed up on my shoulder. There is also Shisa art, whimsical pottery statues which was incredible. It’s free but would be nice to leave donation please. Sander looked after me very well. He is very friendly and funny. His van was very comfortable and super clean (I felt bad I filled his van with sands, Gomen Nasai). He had heaps of drinks and snacks packed in his van. Although it was October, the heat in Ishigaki was next level and I was sweating like a pig. There was a very pretty hidden waterfall(secluded and no crowd) which helped me cool off. He also got towels for you. I thought it was very thoughtful. There was one restaurant with rubber chicken hanging, one that makes noise when you squeeze, I still don’t know if it was there to get their attention but we were laughing our arses off. All in all, this tour is the best to view Ishigaki especially if you’re only there for couple of days.

• Very well organized tour...

  This tour was fantastic. First of all, Sander the tour guide, had a wonderful van with everything we would need for the day, including water, snacks, drinks, sunscreen, bug spray, personal usb fans, and towels to dry off. He was very personable and had a large monitor showing all the places we were going to visit. And to top it off, he brought us to a little soba restaurant with delicious food ( all part of the tour). All in all this tour was excellent and full of great information. We even got to get close to the small monkeys, where they are very friendly. We went on a glass bottom boat, and saw some coral reef where they harvest black pearls. Ishigaki is a beautiful island, very reminiscent of Hawaii, with a laid back feel. This was a great way to be introduced to this lovely paradise! Thank you Sander and may you continue to have great success with your island tour !

• Great guy!

  We got to see breathtaking views—from the turquoise waters and white sandy beaches to lush mangroves and scenic lookout points. The pace was just right, with plenty of time to take photos, enjoy the scenery, and ask questions. What really stood out was how much care was taken to make sure everyone felt comfortable. I highly recommend Sander. He’s very warm and knowledgeable. The lunch was amazing!

• This is the best tour in Ishigaki!

  This is the best tour for those wanting to see the best Ishigaki island has to offer! The guide is very fun, helpful and knowledgeable. The car is very comfortable, decorated and even has a little kitchen at the back with drinks, snacks and towels. What's surprising is that there is a TV inside a car, showing an introductory movie before each visiting site. You can get to know the history, legends and the most interesting facts about each site. You will see stunning views from the light house, experience Okinawian music performance, take a glass boat in Kabira Bay, try tasty local soba and have the best memories (and photos!) from your trip. It's cultural-natural journey combined. My best recommendations!
