The Hell Valley at night was enchanting. Additionally, the guide's explanations were interesting and I learned a lot! I think it would have been even more enjoyable if I had visited during the day before joining the night tour.夜の地獄谷は幻想的でした。
また、ガイドの方の説明も面白く色々勉強になりました！
昼に一度行ってから、夜のナイトツアーに参加すれば更に楽しめたかなと思いました。

The guide's cheerful greeting, starting with the mechanical doll of Enma, followed by easy-to-understand and enjoyable explanations as we explored Hell Valley and the power spot... We had kids with us, but they also had a great time! The starry sky was incredibly beautiful, and I'm glad I was able to participate.ガイドさんの元気な挨拶、閻魔様のからくり人形から始まり、わかりやすく楽しい説明を受けながら地獄谷、そしてパワースポットへ…
子連れでしたが子供達も楽しんでました！
満点の星空もとっても綺麗で、参加できてよかったです。

The night walk seemed to be freely accessible (the sidewalks were illuminated), but since I was listening to the guide's explanations, it was educational, and I was able to see the highlights without missing anything. It felt a bit pricey, but I think it was worth participating.夜間ウォークは自由に出来たようだった(歩道がライトアップされていた)が、ガイドの方の説明を聞きながらだったので勉強になったし、見所を逃さずしっかりと見ることが出来た。
若干割高な気もしたが参加して良かったと思った。

The local guide provided a wealth of information under the starry sky, explaining how Noboribetsu Hell Valley embraces its natural state and how humans have adapted their viewing methods accordingly. I was able to see many points that I would have overlooked if I had gone on my own, making it a very good tour.地元のガイドさんが満天の星空の元、登別地獄谷は有りのままの自然の状態を受け入れ、それに応じて人間が見学方法を変えているなど、色々詳しく教えてくれたので、個人で行ったら見過ごしてしまうようなポイントをいっぱい見ることが出来、とても良いツアーでした

At first, I was a bit anxious because there were few reviews, but I truly think it was a great tour to join! If we had gone around by ourselves, we would have just taken pictures and finished without really seeing much.

It was a very meaningful and enjoyable tour that gave me a great understanding of Noboribetsu Hell Valley. There were many things I would not have learned just by sightseeing on my own, and I felt the love for Noboribetsu through the guide's wonderful smile and explanations. The 70 minutes flew by, and I thought I would like to visit Noboribetsu again.登別　地獄谷の事がよく分かり大変有意義で楽しいツアーでした。
個人で観光しただけでは知り得なかった事がたくさんあり　ガイドさんの素敵な笑顔と説明から登別への愛を感じ　あっという間の70分
また登別へ来たいなと思いました。

I went on a night walk on December 2nd, but it was colder than I expected due to the snowfall. The roads weren't frozen yet, but thinking about it being frozen... However, thanks to the very attentive guide, I was extremely satisfied. Thank you very much.12月2日にナイトウォークしましたが、積雪があり思ったよりも寒かったです。
路面はまだ凍っていませんでしたが、凍っていたらと考えると……
でもすごく丁寧なガイドさんのお陰で大満足しました。
有り難うございました。
