― What I Value Most as a Guide ―
— The Story of Hiroto Hayata —
"I just wanted to live on Miyako Island"—that was the only reason I moved there. I didn't really think much about what kind of job to get; I chose to become a tour guide because it allows me to interact with people.
Let us help make your trip to Miyako Island a memory you'll cherish for a lifetime!!

— Customer Feedback for Hiro —
On the last day of my 59th year, I was probably the oldest participant. I was a little nervous at first, but Hiro, who speaks with a Kansai accent, guided us so thoughtfully and kindly that I was able to relax and enjoy myself 😃. I got to see beautiful fish and even a sea turtle—it was an amazing experience. Hiro’s bubble ring trick was wonderful, too 💕.
Anyway, it was so much fun encountering all kinds of creatures! Hiro-san’s commentary and banter in his Kansai dialect were entertaining, and even though we walked quite a bit, I didn’t feel tired at all—it was a really enjoyable walk! It happened to be a full moon when I went, and I was moved by the dramatic moonlight reflecting off the horizon—it looked just like something out of a movie! However, I’ve heard it can be harder to see the stars under a full moon, so if you want to stargaze, you might want to avoid that time. I’d love to visit again the next time I’m on Miyako Island—thank you so much!
It turned out to be an amazing memory. My older daughter was thrilled to try snorkeling for the first time. She was actually a bit nervous—it wasn’t just her first time snorkeling, but practically her first time swimming in the ocean—but Hiro, with his Kansai accent, kept a constant eye on her and took great care of her, so we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. Unfortunately, we got caught in a sudden downpour, but thanks to Hiro’s entertaining banter and explanations, our spirits never dropped. Surprisingly, the fish were very active, and we even managed to take photos with clownfish and sea turtles—both my daughter and I were completely satisfied. This activity definitely lived up to our expectations.
