I recently participated in the "Sagaribana Viewing Jungle Night Tour" on Ishigaki Island. The experience of seeing the one-night-only sagaribana in the jungle at night was fantastic, the sweet scent of the flowers was in the air, and the star-filled sky was amazing. Thanks to the guide's detailed explanations and safe support, even first-timers can enjoy the tour. The whole family was very satisfied with the tour. Please join this tour when you visit Ishigaki Island!

I did not come here with a specific goal in mind, but the guide of the tour I joined during the daytime told me that it happened to be the season of the sagaribana, so I joined the evening tour of the sagaribana. It was a good decision to join the tour because it is difficult to find places where the flowers are in bloom. The time was a little earlier than the peak, so it was not in full bloom, but it was beautiful enough, fragrant, and fun. We had good memories!
