prefektura Okinawa Divoká zvěř

Prohlídka byla skvělá!! Náš průvodce Ten dorazil na vyzvednutí včas. Ten byl velmi přátelský a vše skvěle vysvětlil :) Měli jsme šanci vidět štíra a hada, což je vzácné! Ale také velkého kokosového kraba a obří pavouky 😆

Hiro byl úžasný průvodce! Velmi vtipný a znalý. Celou dobu v džungli se staral o naši bezpečnost a zábavu. Byl tak laskavý, že nám dal doporučení na jídlo! Džungle byla krásná a bylo tam spousta divoké zvěře k pozorování. Buďte prosím opatrní při průzkumu. Přírodu je třeba respektovat!

TOTO JE NEJÚŽASNĚJŠÍ ZÁŽITEK VŮBEC, BEZ DEBAT!! Letěli jsme na Okinawu prakticky jen kvůli tomuto výletu. Jelikož jsme neměli žádné zkušenosti s potápěním, instruktoři byli s námi velmi trpěliví a předem nám ukázali některé techniky, aby nám dali dobrý základ. Poskytli veškeré vybavení pro začátečnický ponor a ukázali nám, jak ho používat. Také jsme si pronajali podvodní kameru, což je pro tento zážitek upřímně nutnost. Naši instruktoři, tato opravdu talentovaná dáma a pán, byli tak trpěliví při ukazování, jak vše dělat. Takže samotný ponor: nastoupíte na loď, odvezou vás tam, kde se rehabilituje žralok velrybí, a připraví vás, vyčistí vám masku a dávají tipy po cestě. Jakmile tam dorazíte, navedou vás z lodi čelem dopředu, takže se nemusíte bát, že byste se převrátili dozadu, jako to vidíte ve videích. Instruktoři kontrolují vztlak, takže vše, co musíte dělat, je dýchat. A pak ten zážitek – nebudu vám ho kazit, prostě ho musíte zažít, ale změní vám život!

Although the itinerary was a bit hot, it was very interesting! The night jungle adventure was something my child had never experienced before! The guide, Xin Jiang, picked us up from the hotel and was incredibly enthusiastic. Along the way, we saw all sorts of insects, including butterflies, frogs, large spiders, and stick insects. Coconut crabs were harder to find, so Xin Jiang took us to see the stars instead. He worked very hard to take photos for each group, truly dedicated! The pictures turned out amazing! It's really hard to capture stars with a phone camera. Finally, on the way back, Xin Jiang found a baby coconut crab. Although it was small, we still got to see one!

Instructor: Leia Safety: I felt confident and pleased that the pre-survey was thoroughly conducted via QR code. Location: The fireflies were abundant and fantastic within walking distance. Experience: I didn't have high expectations since I had experienced fireflies in Bohol, Philippines, but this was overwhelmingly better, and everything was truly perfect. Equipment: Even though it was raining, I was touched that they rented out clean rain boots that fit my size.

Was a very fun experience. Instructor was knowledgeable, friendly, and was able to fluently communicate with the group. We started in a big group and a portion of the group had to return back to their vehicle. She was able to help them out while the rest of us continued searching for wildlife. She did mention what to look out for and there was other groups around so it still felt safe. She returned and continued the tour. We were lucky that another group was able to find the coconut crab so a lot of people got pictures in. It was a windy and cold night, finding the crab was harder than normal.

We participated just before the end of the rainy season, and the weather in the Yaeyama Islands was challenging, typical of the region, with sudden heavy downpours followed by clear skies. However, the journey with our guide, literally pushing through dense vegetation into a jungle that felt like an animal trail, searching for wildlife, was thrilling and incredibly enjoyable. Thanks to this, we encountered not only coconut crabs but also habu snakes, rare hermit crabs, bats, and even scorpions, making for a truly fulfilling experience. We were very grateful to be lent shoes, as we were entering a jungle along the coast and there was a risk of getting muddy. Also, it rained heavily at one point, and there was no room or opportunity to use an umbrella, so a waterproof jacket made of Gore-Tex or similar material is essential.

For our honeymoon, we visited Iriomote Island for the first time, and as soon as we arrived, we joined a firefly tour. I had seen a few fireflies in the countryside when I was very young, but my wife had never seen them before. As dusk fell and it grew darker, fireflies began to appear one by one, and soon every space we looked at was filled with them. It was an unimaginable, truly rare experience. I don't know how many chances we'll have in our lives to encounter fireflies again. If you visit Iriomote, I highly recommend experiencing this!
