I went for the crane watching tour with Mr. Shuta. It was a wonderful experience. He was well prepared and provided telescope and binoculars. He was experienced in pointing out various wildlife along the route and finding good spots to view cranes at the right timing. Thank you.
Yoshie-san is talented and impressive as an artist, and manages to make something she’s dedicated so much time to accessible to even first-timers!
The studio is the one with sliding glass doors, just left of a very blue shop with silver shutters.
so great! we had family on island for the holidays and thought it would be really special to make chopsticks from Shikwasa wood. & you get to personalize it at the end too! The teachers are lovely, kind and patient. It shows they truly connect with the art of forming your own chopstick. even with the language barrier it was clear and simply to do (though not exactly easy!) Highly recommended!
Don't book on a Tuesday or Wednesday as the whole complex full of shops and cafe's are closed.
We enjoyed our fun and educational sanba experience . The teacher was kind and patient and a talented musician. Highly recommend this activity.
I had a once in a life time experience interacting with dolphins at Motobu Genki Village! While a lot of people will head for Churaumi aquarium to watch whales and fish in big tanks, I opted for a closer encounter with these wonderful sea creatures. It is worth noting that the dolphins at Genki Village live in the actual sea, albeit in designated sections. Swimming with dolphins has been a childhood dream of mine, and I still can’t believe that it actually came true. Not only that, but I was in such luck that I was the only person in my booked time slot - meaning the very nice and skilled trainer directed all her attention to me. And I got to swim with the dolphin in question, Money - four whole times. Twice hanging onto her top fin and twice over her belly when she swam upside down. The trainer and Money put on quite the show, with funny tricks and mirroring theatrics which I also was a participant in. I had to the best time, and I have videos from the event of me laughing excitedly like a little kid. Besides the main activity itself, I got to loan a wet suit (winter time), crocs and a towel, and the changing room had lockers and the showers schampoo, conditioner and shower gel. The only thing I had to bring myself was a bathing suit - it could not have been smoother! I am so so happy to have experienced this! If you are in doubt, don’t be - just do it - you won’t regret it!
- Bring a bathing suit!
- Buy a waterproof pouch for your phone on site in order to use its camera.
Great tour guides showed us ANA training center, The Blue Base. The tour was well organized and guests will have ample of time to see various training aspects of the airline.
The gift shop was fantastic, make sure bring your credit card!
Really a enjoying tour and experience. I learned a lot about ANA flight and crew
We made reservations a few months in advance and checking in for our private boat was easy. We had the entire boat to ourselves and we brought some snacks and rinks to enjoy as we floated along. Our boatman kept the boat going smoothly and guided us along but one thing is he really didn’t point out anything not told us about some of the area and sights we were seeing. Luckily several of us are local and knew what things where so we had to point them out to the rest and explain things. We were disappointed that the floating snack/ drink boat never came up along side to offer more drinks or other items as we were hoping to enjoy some warm sake and other treats that wood have made the boat ride a bit more fun.
Bring snacks and drinks to enjoy as you glide along the river
Everyone was so professional and kind. I learned a lot about the preparation the pilots and flight attendants go through in order to qualify to work for all Nippon airways. The only thing I can add is that some people went on the hanger tour also and that sounds like a lot of fun.
Make your reservations early because the spots fill fast!
We really loved our guide. She was so happy and friendly. She took the time to take pictures for us. We would definitely recommend the service to our friends.
A very interesting guided tour that revealed previously unknown training facilities. The guides were also very friendly.
Arashiyama can be very very crowded. For a peaceful, fulfilling start to your Arashiyama trip, recommend to take this 1-hour private boat trip (with table) early at 9am! Worth the money spent, guaranteed.
We loved this ! Super peaceful great experience. Recommend to anyone
It's very convenient to travel around Yakushima by bus in one day, and good weather makes the trip go smoothly.
No any suggestion,all is good
A great opportunity to learn more about airlines and the aviation industry. The staff was very friendly and provided an excellent introduction, making it an enjoyable experience.
All good, picked up on time, plenty of space for both me and luggage. Great Service 😎
Driver was very nice and even added small interesting stops along the way.
My 4 year old and I had a great time making our cupcake and tart. The teacher was so kind and patient, and could cater to us with our lack of Japanese. There was even a playground with a roller slide in the park next to the building, which was perfect for keeping our 1 year old busy while we participated.
We had such a great time creating our little cupcake and fruit tart! The instructor was so kind and spoke very good English, while simultaneously explaining to another group of visitors in Japanese. It was also a nice change of pace from running around Tokyo to sit and do a craft. We had a hard time choosing additional souvenirs (a magnet and keychain) from their wide selection, and it felt nice to buy from a local business versus the mass produced ones you’ll see in tourist shops. We’d love to come back and do a larger craft next time we’re in town!
We went as two adults, but would be a great activity for children as well!
Value for money. Easy to find start location outside Kyoto train station.
Very welcoming with checks of passengers so we don't get left behind.
Great communication in different languages with earphones.
Train ride with great views nice to get out the big cities. Boat ride great. Rickshaw added extra but discount vouchers given. Brilliant staff. A trip for everyone, people with walking difficulties may find the boat ride difficult but speak to staff as the opportunity to stay on the coach.
None, nothing you can do about a bit of cold weather.
I had wonderful experience painting a lantern with Japanese motives 😁😍 o love how it was packaged in the end, great experience 😍
I did the mini curry rice phone stand and it was a really fun activity. the instructions and guidance was so clear and it made the activity run smoothly with no mistakes :)
The food is surprisingly good with the view and everything. We had a blast! Highly recommended.
Led by an excellent guide & host this day trip is a great way to do a complete circuit of the island when you don't have a car. Great program of places to stop & get out of the bus. Not too rushed. Delicious lunch. All round great value tour.
Kyoto Arashiyama Private Yakatabune offers a serene and elegant 1-hour boat ride through Arashiyama’s breathtaking seasonal scenery — perfect for groups of four. The experience is made even better by the wonderful guide, who is not only accommodating but also helps capture amazing photos throughout the trip. Communication can be a bit challenging since the guide mainly speaks Japanese, so downloading Google Translate is highly recommended for a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

We had a fantastic time touring the ANA base and gaining insight into the airline’s operations. As a longtime ANA fan, it was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend the tour. The Taiwanese ANA staff were outstanding—welcoming, knowledgeable, and incredibly hospitable.
very private and personal performance- much better than Kyoto !
The Mangrove Kayak Tour was a fun and enjoyable activity, set in a beautiful mangrove environment. The duration was just right—not too long or tiring. Unfortunately, the Blue Cave part was changed to a beach snorkeling spot due to weather conditions, but that area turned out to have a rich marine ecosystem. We were lucky to see two sea turtles and beautiful fish —it was an amazing experience overall. Our tour guide, sorry I forgot her name. is incredibly warm, friendly, attentive, and full of energy.
Phanton Island really lives up to its name — it’s so unreal in its beauty. Snorkeling was fun, though the area we went to that day was just okay — we mainly saw corals, with not many fish or sea turtles around. Still, it was a wonderful and unforgettable experience overall.
