I would like to highlight the driver, who was friendly and kind, and I would recommend him to my friends. I think the places to visit were limited due to the rain, but as a guide, he skillfully adjusted the schedule while taking us to various sightseeing spots, making the day enjoyable with interesting explanations. I definitely want to request him again next time.特筆すべきは感じが良く親切で友人にもすすめたいドライバーさんでした。
雨天で観光出来る場所も限られていたと思いますが、ガイドさんとしても、上手に時間を調整しながら観光地を回り、その都興味深い説明で一日を楽しく過ごせました。
次回も是非お願いしたいと思います。

I received very polite explanations from both of you, and I was able to understand everything clearly. Also, thank you for guiding me to the local supermarket at the end and for waiting until I finished shopping, even though we went over time. Thanks to you, it turned out to be a wonderful trip.両方とも大変ご丁寧な説明を頂き、しっかり理解できました。また、最後に御当地スーパーも案内頂き、時間オーバーにも関わらず買い終わるまで待って頂きありがとうございました。おかげさまで、とても良い旅になりました。

From Otaru to Yoichi

Normally, I would use a rental car, but I signed up for this tour because I was worried about driving on snowy roads. Fortunately, the weather was nice on the day of the tour, and it seemed like driving wouldn't be an issue, but taking a taxi was definitely more comfortable. Considering the unfamiliar roads and the need to look up stores while driving, the taxi was very convenient as it eliminated the need for prior research and any time loss on the day itself.

Considering the unfamiliar roads and the need to look up stores while driving, the taxi was very convenient as it eliminated the need for prior research and any time loss on the day itself.

This time, we had a 4-hour course. Since we were scheduled to stay at the LOOP hotel in Yoichi, we toured Otaru before heading to the hotel. Both my friend and I had visited Otaru a few times, so we focused on shopping there. When moving from Otaru to Yoichi, we were taken to scenic spots along the coast.

The driver efficiently scheduled our requested and suggested sightseeing spots, allowing us to make the most of our time. He was very friendly, knowledgeable about local information, and our conversations in the car were enjoyable. 普段ならレンタカーを利用するのですが、雪道が心配だったためこのツアーを申し込みました。当日は幸いにも天気に恵まれ運転に支障は無さそうでしたが、やっぱりタクシーは楽。慣れない道やお店を調べながら走ることを考えると、事前の下調べも当日の時間ロスもないタクシーはとても快適で良かったです。

今回は4時間コース。余市のLOOPというホテルに滞在予定だったため、小樽から観光しながら余市へ向かいホテルに送っていただきました。

運転手さんは、私たちのリクエスト＋ご提案いただいた観光地等をうまくスケジューリングしてくださり効率的に回れました。とても気さくな方で、地元情報もお詳しく、車内での会話も楽しかったです。

The driver was like a guide, and their explanations and guidance were excellent and efficient. They took many photos, and everyone was very happy. Thank you very much. I wish we had a bit more time; three hours wasn't enough, so I recommend five hours.ガイドさんのような運転手さんで、説明も案内もてきぱきと素晴らしかったです。写真もたくさん撮って頂きみんな大喜びでした。有り難うございました。もう少し時間に余裕が有ったら良かったなと、3時間では足りませんので、5時間がお勧めですね。
