The itinerary was great. It would be even better if the cruise ship had Chinese commentary. The shuttle bus was clean and comfortable. The only downside was that the time spent on Yubu Island was too short to explore it properly.
KKDay is amazing in this regard. Taiwanese tourists visiting Japan will almost always rely on KKDay for most of their trips. PiPi's team service is excellent, I really like it, and I will continue to use it.
We had a half-day scuba diving experience on the morning of June 11th. Even though it rained heavily all morning, our instructor led us with great energy. The underwater scenery near Ishigaki Island was absolutely stunning; I'll definitely experience it again if I have the chance.
