Yakushima Sightseeing One-day Bus Tour "Yakuzaru-go" with Lunch
Excellent for someone without car
Activity Date: 2025/09/22 | Posted on: 2025/09/23

It is a great tour because it is the only one you can book online for a reasonable price. The guide only speaks Japanese but you will go to places that you would never do by yourself. I would never drive in some of the very narrow road, especially during bad weather, but the chauffeur did amazing. I would 100% recommend that trip if you have no car.

Packages: One Person
Tips and suggestions

Choose the formula where the meal is included. It’s delicious and very convenient.

Kerama Experience Diving <1–2 Dives / Half-Day> by Ocean Links Co., Ltd.
Amazing experience
Activity Date: 2025/09/19 | Posted on: 2025/09/20

What a great diving experience! Not only was the water crystal clear but also lots of vibrant corals with lots of color. The ocean never ceases to amaze with its colorful fish.

Our stars mainly go to our guides though! Great people with endless conversation and great social skills. Extremely nice and very adaptable depending on who they dive with. They take care of every diver no matter the skill!

Thanks a bunch for this everlasting experience Yuka and Kodai!!<3

Kerama Half-Day Boat Snorkeling Tour with Fish Feeding & Free Photos
Exciting and fun snorkeling and banana boat ride for newbies
Activity Date: 2025/08/31 | Posted on: 2025/09/02

The boat will take you near a sand bar in the Karama Islands area. Once the anchor is set each group gets a ride on the banana boat pulled by a jet ski for no more than 10 minutes. Short but exhilarating ride, better hold on and get ready to get sea water spray.

Once you're back on the boat, select your snorkel mask either single piece or dual. I prefer dual for easier defogging and fit. Climb to the back of the boat and drop in to the water. There was a strong current when we went so unless you want a workout, hold on to a long rope attached to multiple floating buoys.

Snorkeling was restricted to an area within two ropes due to the current. There was no long distance snorkeling and diving down under the surface not allowed due to mandatory life vests. Pretty much just float and hope you see something interesting which did happen when a shark swam by.

A photographer was available to take some underwater pics that were shared upon email request at no extra cost.

Seating is at the top deck where you'll get plenty of sun. The comfy shady spots are to the right and left of the captain. There is a toilet available in the bottom deck but only allowed if you're dry so bring a towel.

Overall a fun, quick adventure, mostly for newbies.

Arashiyama Private Boat & Bento: 1 Hour Charter
Peaceful, beautiful, good service

Pau

Went with my family, since we came the service was very efficient, no waiting line and it was a private reservation so we had the boat by ourselves.

The view is beautiful, the food was really good and had a lot of variety of Japanese food, the presentation of everything was really well thought!

There is also a convenience boat, which selled drinks, grilled squid and dango. It was very nice! 1 hour of boat trip but it was totally worth it.

Would do it again!

Packages: Kyoto Assorted Meal
Tips and suggestions

I recommend going to the private boat ride if you would like a peaceful experience.

Kyoto Arashiyama Private Yakatabune: Elegant Boat Ride to Enjoy Seasonal Scenery
Great experience, great staff. Website needs work.
Activity Date: 2025/08/09 | Posted on: 2025/08/30

Amazing folks all around from boat operator to the people servicing the ticket. But the Vletra website is very old, clunky and confusing, selecting the right number of people was difficult on Veltra website. So I paid for whatever it let me select, then got in touch via email to pay for the rest. Website needs a major update.

I was amazed at the commitment. I believe due to low volume of customers that day the bus was cancelled. However a taxi was arranged for the sightseeing. The driver cum guide was great and made sure we spend more time in important sites. Overall had a wonderful time.

Sasebo Private Taxi Tour to Tenkaiho Observatory w/ Stunning Kujukushima Views
Our driver, Kazu, was WONDERFUL!
Activity Date: 2025/08/12 | Posted on: 2025/08/25

Our family booked a private taxi tour with Kazu, and everything about our experience was perfect. The staff in the Tourist Information Centre were all very friendly and helpful, and even though we don't speak Japanese and they didn't speak English, the tablet translation tools they used made communication seamless. Kazu was very professional and kind, and he clearly loves what he does. His enthusiasm for the sights in Sasebo was delightful and we would 100% book an experience with him again.

Adventure Sea Kayak Tour and Blue Cave Snorkeling from Onna
Fantastic Experience
Activity Date: 2025/08/23 | Posted on: 2025/08/24

We came as a group of three and had an absolutely amazing experience with Daan, our tour guide. He was extremely friendly and knew a lot about the local sea life. All the staff at Aruguide were also extremely welcoming and kind. We took the kayaks out to the spot where you can snorkel and also see the cave. The cave itself was fairly crowded but the area around it was incredibly beautiful and so many living things everywhere you look. Colorful fish and beautiful clear water. I couldn't recommend this experience more. 10/10

Kintsugi Workshop in Tokyo: Repair Pottery with Gold at Kuge Crafts Studio
Such a fun activity with wonderful people
Activity Date: 2025/07/12 | Posted on: 2025/07/31

We had an absolutely delightful time at the kintsugi class. The hosts were exceptionally kind and friendly. The class was interesting and time flew by. We all left with our own piece restored pottery. A wonderful way to spend some time doing something interest with such nice and thoughtful people. As tourists it sometimes seems so rare to have an opportunity to interact with people in this way.

(The class is also very easy to get to by train.)

Private Snorkeling Tour of Okinawa's Blue Cave from Onna
Blue Cave Snorkeli g
Activity Date: 2025/07/14 | Posted on: 2025/07/15

Our blue cave snorkeling event was cancelled due to weather but they offered to take us to a shallow area near their shop where we saw tons of fish. The current was strong but the heavy duty life vest kept us afloat and our guide was right there with us, taking pictures, and also had a boogie board we could grab onto if we needed a rest. If we had more time, I would have rebooked the blue cave once the weather calmed down. Our guide was kind and helpful and the equipment was clean and in good condition. My son and I had a great time.

Packages: Standard Snorkeling Plan
Tips and suggestions

Book the event early in your trip in case weather interferes. Then you have time to rebook.
