The exhilarating feeling of cutting through the wind as I raced past Irabu Island’s breathtaking scenic spots was amazing, and I’m so glad I took the plunge and joined the tour.

User_wqgc / 30s Posted: September 2026

It went smoothly. I was able to easily rent a trike with just my regular driver’s license, which let me efficiently enjoy sightseeing around Miyako Island. It’s also great that you don’t need a helmet and can feel the breeze while riding. However, the sun is very strong, so sunglasses or other protection are a must. I’ll definitely use this service again.

The exhilarating feeling of cutting through the wind while touring Irabu Island’s famous sights was wonderful, and as a parent, I was able to watch over them with peace of mind.
