Iriomote Night Tour Sagaribana Viewing (Jun-Aug Only)

★ Limited-Time "Sagaribana" Viewing Tour
This tour is held for a limited time only from June to August.
The "Sagaribana" is a summer tradition that can only be seen in parts of the Nansei Islands in Japan.
Also known as the "one-night flower," it blooms at night and falls by dawn... it is truly a phantom flower!

★ Guided Tour!
Because there are no streetlights on Iriomote Island at night, it can be dangerous and difficult to go to many places alone. However, on this tour, our nature guides will safely guide and support you.
Please fully enjoy the night on this subtropical island!

★ This is a very popular tour.
Please make your reservation early!
