All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I think the color of the sea would have been even more beautiful if it had been sunny, but even so, the mangrove tour provided a lot of interesting explanations, allowing me to learn many things I didn't know. I crossed the sea on a water buffalo cart, and while leisurely touring Taketomi Island, I experienced a performance of the sanshin. It was a very satisfying tour! Additionally, the bus driver on Iriomote Island was a great storyteller, making the trip very enjoyable. I also got to see the special natural monument, the crested serpent eagle.

晴れていればもっと海の色も綺麗だっただろうなぁと思いますが、それでもマングローブの遊覧ではいろんな解説で知らないことをたくさん知ることができ、水牛車で海を渡ったり、竹富島観光も水牛車でのんびり周りながら三線演奏を体験して、大満足のツアーでした！また、西表島でのバスの運転手さんは、お話上手でとても楽しめました。特別天然記念物のカンムリワシも、見れました。

I was glad to efficiently visit the highlights of Osaka. Listening to the guide's stories deepened my understanding. I recommend this for those who want to know the city of Osaka but don't have much time.

大阪の見どころを効率よく回れて良かったです。ガイドさんのお話を伺うことで理解も深まります。あまり時間はないが大阪の街を知りたい人にお勧めです。

The heavy rain unexpectedly caused a cancellation. The next day, we changed our destination to the mossy forest. The forest after the rain was magical and beautiful. I will definitely make a comeback to see Jomon Sugi.

大雨でまさかの中止。
翌日、行先変更で苔むす森へ。
雨上がりの森は幻想的で綺麗でした。
必ず縄文杉行きをリベンジします。

Despite the unfortunate weather, I participated with a faint hope, but I couldn't see the stars after all. However, our guide Kenken worked hard to find coconut crabs and shared many stories about the creatures of Ishigaki, as well as information about stars and constellations, which made me feel a deep love for Ishigaki. ♥ In the end, we also got to see fireflies, which left me extremely satisfied. I definitely want to come back for a revenge trip to see the starry sky!

あいにくのお天気の中、微かな希望を持って参加しましたが、やっぱり星は見られずでした。でも、ガイドのケンケンさんが、一生懸命にヤシガニを見つけてくれたり、石垣の生き物の話や、星や星座の事などたくさん教えてくれて、石垣への愛をたっぷり感じさせてもらいました♥
最後にホタルも見送ってくれて、大大満足でした。また、星空を見にリベンジしたいと思います！

Driver Tanaka was amazing. He fulfilled almost all of our wishes, making it a very enjoyable trip. The conversations in the car were also interesting, and he was very kind to guide us at the sightseeing spots. I would definitely like to request him again the next time I go to Kumamoto!

ドライバーの田中さんが最高でした
希望をほとんど叶えてくださって
とても楽しい旅になりました
車内でのお話も興味深かったですし
観光地ではついて案内してくださってとても
親切にしていただいて良かったです
次回熊本に行く時は是非また
お願いしたいです〜

Swimming with colorful fish in the transparent sea was more moving than I could have imagined, and it was the best time to completely forget about my daily life and truly refresh myself.

透明な海の中で色とりどりの魚と一緒に泳ぐ体験は想像以上に感動的で、日常を忘れて心からリフレッシュできた最高の時間だった。

At first, I was a bit anxious about what kind of atmosphere the tour would have, but it turned out to be a wonderful and memorable experience. The guide was a young man who explained everything in Japanese, Chinese, and English, and he was very friendly and genuinely pleasant. The driver was also a young man, and he drove very well, ensuring a smooth ride. If I have the opportunity to participate in another tour, I would definitely want to request these two again. It became an unforgettable trip to Hokkaido. I am very grateful to them.

どんな雰囲気のツアーか最初は不安でしたが、とっても思い出に残るステキなツアーでした。
ガイドさんは若い男性で日本語、中国語、英語の3ヵ国語で説明してくれて、またとても気さくでほんとうに感じの良いかたでした。ドライバーのかたも若い男性でしたが、運転がとても上手で、スムーズに走行されていました。またツアーに参加する機会がありましたら是非ぜひこのお二人にお願いしたいです。忘れられない北海道旅行になりました。我非常感谢他们。

To participate in this tour, you need to practice walking for at least a few hours; otherwise, it can be tough. Since I don't usually do trekking or mountain climbing, I started practicing by walking for about 2 to 3 hours on weekends, two months prior to the tour, and I was able to see Jomon Sugi without any issues. However, I'm not sure if my practice was sufficient.

Our guide, Ando, monitored our fatigue levels and adjusted the pace accordingly. It was challenging, but I was able to achieve it in a fun way. Thank you very much!

このツアーに参加するには、最低でも数時間歩く位の練習をしていないと、キツいです。　自分はトレッキングや登山などしないため、2カ月前位から週末に2〜3時間程度の歩く練習をして挑み、無事に縄文杉を見ることが出来ましたが、練習が十分だったかと言われると微妙です。
ガイドの安藤さんは、自分たち疲労度を見ながら、ペース配分を考えてガイドしていただき、キツかったですが、楽しく達成するこどが出来ました。ありがとうございました！

I used a charter taxi for the first time. I was able to visit all the places I wanted, and when I had extra time, I could also go to the recommended spots suggested by the driver. While I was exploring the destinations, the driver waited in the taxi, which was great because it meant I didn't have to worry about sticking to a strict schedule. If I have the chance again, I would like to use this service.

貸切タクシーを初めて利用しました。行きたい所は全て回れましたし、時間が余った時に運転手さんのおすすめの場所にも行けました。目的地散策中、運転手さんはタクシーの中で待っていてくれるので、予定時間より前後しても問題ないところもとても良かったです。また機会があれば、利用したいです。

There were only four Japanese people, but the guide was kind and a nice person. It was my first time participating, but I'm glad I went.

日本人は4人だけでしたけど。
ガイドさんも　優しくいい方でした。
初めての参加だったけど

行って良かったです

Overall, it was disappointing. It might be due to the schedule. The pose options were limited, so I should have decided on my own. If I take photos again, I will choose a different place.

全体的に期待はずれ。日程もありそうだけど。
ポーズ指定薄めだから自分で決めるべきだった。
次撮るなら別のところにする。

I was able to see the training facility of ANA, and my grandchild was so excited, saying that they want to come with the whole family next time. I'm really glad we came.

ANAの訓練する施設を見る事ができて孫もワクワクして今度は家族みんなで来たいと言ってたのが本当に来てよかったんだなぁと思いました

We participated as a couple in our late 60s. We were a bit anxious about whether we could safely reach Jomon Sugi, but thanks to our guide, Iwakawa-san, we successfully made it to Jomon Sugi and returned to the trailhead. The sense of accomplishment when we descended was exceptional.

Iwakawa-san was always attentive to our physical condition and fatigue levels, ensuring we took breaks at the right times and encouraging us with a touch of humor. Because of that, we were able to walk all the way to the end with peace of mind.

I highly recommend this guide for anyone who may have concerns about their physical stamina.

60代後半の夫婦で参加しました。縄文杉まで無事に行けるか不安もありましたが、ガイドの岩川さんのおかげで、無事に縄文杉にたどり着き、登山口まで戻ってこられました。
下山したときの達成感は格別でした。
岩川さんは常に私たちの体調や疲れ具合に気を配り、適切なタイミングで休憩を取ってくださり、時にはユーモアを交えながら励ましてくださいました。そのおかげで安心して最後まで歩ききることができました。
体力に不安のある方にも、ぜひおすすめしたいガイドさんです。

It's just watching a low-quality synthetic screen on the TV in the car. The content isn't interesting either. I feel nauseous from seeing the real streets through the screen. On top of that, it encountered an error and had to restart the system. I felt like I missed out on the parts that were skipped due to the error.

車の中で質の悪い合成画面をテレビで見るだけ。内容も面白くない。現実の街並みを画面を通して見ることで酔う。おまけに途中でエラーになり、システム再起動。エラーで通り過ぎた部分は飛ばされたので、損した気分。

The ferry was really nice. There's a microwave! Instant noodles on board + drinks. I got the dorm bed and that was easy and comfy. The view was really nice.

Personally for me I had really bad sea sickness 😔 the heating was also way too high indoors so that didn't help. Thankfully I was able to lie down in the dorm bed and sleep it off.

This aside pretty easy and spacious ferry. Internet was great except in dorm rooms (upstairs) were a bit spotty

During my recent visit to Fukuoka, I participated as a solo female traveler. As mentioned in other reviews, there were many international participants, and that day there were about 40 people, creating a multicultural atmosphere. Our guide, Ryu, made all the announcements in three languages, which I found truly impressive.

It felt like an overseas trip while being in Japan, which was a strange but delightful experience. The content of the tour was excellent, and I was very satisfied with it.

At the end, we enjoyed a foot bath in Beppu while sipping on Ramune, but it seemed that the international guests struggled with opening the Ramune bottles. It might have been helpful to provide a quick tutorial on the bus beforehand.

先日福岡を訪れた際、女性１人で参加しました。他の方の口コミにもあるように海外の方が多く、その日は40名くらいで多国籍な感じでした。ガイドのリュウさんは全てのアナウンスを３ヶ国語で行い、本当にすごいなぁと感心しきりでした。
日本にいながら海外旅行？みたいな不思議な感じでしたが、ツアーの内容もよく非常に満足できる内容でした。
最後の別府で足湯に入りながらラムネをいただいたのですが、海外の方はラムネの開け方がわからないようで苦戦してました。バスの中とかでレクチャーしておいてあげるとよかったのかもしれませんね。

I visited Kyoto during the busiest time of the year without realizing it, and I used a sightseeing taxi. They selected the appropriate routes, allowing me to enjoy a comfortable stay. The knowledge about temples and shrines was impressive, and the stories shared were very enlightening. If I have the opportunity to go to Kyoto again, I would definitely like to request their services.

一年で1番人が多い時期とは知らず京都に行き観光タクシーを利用させていただきましたが適切なルートをセレクトしていただき快適な滞在を満喫できました。
また寺社仏閣の知識もかなり高く関心するお話しばかりで大変勉強になりました。
また京都に行く事があったら是非ともお願いしたいです

Thank you for your help. I enjoyed my grandson's spring break. However, I think it would have been even better if we could have gotten closer to experience the size of the airplane and such.

お世話になりました。孫の春休みで楽しめました。しかし　もう少し近くに行って飛行機の大きさ等が体験できたら　もっと良かったのではと思いました。

I had plenty of free time, so I was able to relax while renting a bicycle. The water buffalo cart ride was also a lot of fun!

One point to note!
After getting off the ferry, I found out that there are two boarding areas for the Iriomote Island tour cruise: one for "tour groups" and one for "general users."
Since there was no specific guidance, I asked at the shop, and they directed me to the general boarding area, but I ended up almost missing the tour cruise...
If there had been a little more detailed guidance from the start, I think I would have been able to board without confusion and with peace of mind.

フリー時間がたっぷりあったので、自転車を借りてのんびり過ごせました。水牛車もとても楽しかったです！

注意点が1つ！
フェリーを降りた後、西表島ツアーのクルーズ船乗り場が「ツアー専用」と「一般利用者用」の2つあることがわかりました。
特に案内がなかったため売店で聞いたところ、一般用を教えていただき、結局ツアーのクルーズに乗り遅れそうに…。
最初からもう少し丁寧な案内があれば、迷わず安心して乗れると思います。

It was my first time visiting Eiheiji in a while. The bad weather brought in leaves and small branches, which was quite troublesome. At the Asakura ruins, the rain and wind were strong, so we had to wait on the bus. Since it was a tour, I was a bit disappointed that we couldn't use our time freely.

久しぶりの永平寺でした。荒天で葉っぱや小枝が吹き込んで大変でした。朝倉氏の遺跡は雨風が強くてバスで待機していました。ツアーなので時間が自由に使えなくてやや残念でした。

I requested a sightseeing tour of about three and a half hours. I was accompanied to Osaka Castle, Tsutenkaku, Abeno Harukas from the car window, and Ebisu Bridge in Dotonbori, as well as for souvenir shopping. For lunch, I was blown away by the authentic takoyaki and negiyaki recommended by the driver! I'm glad I added the transfer to Itami Airport. I'm very satisfied! 😊

約３時間半の観光をお願いしました。
大阪城の案内、通天閣、車窓からのアベノハルカス、道頓堀の戎橋、お土産購入などに同行してもらいました。
ランチにはドライバーさんオススメの本場のたこ焼きとネギ焼きに悶絶！
伊丹空港までの送迎も追加して良かったです。大満足です😊

On Ishigaki Island, I experienced stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) among the mangroves and snorkeling in the ocean filled with coral reefs. While paddling slowly along the calm river, I was able to feel the nature of the mangroves up close, which was very soothing. At first, it was a bit challenging to maintain my balance, but the staff kindly taught me how to ride and gave me tips, allowing me to enjoy it with peace of mind.

During snorkeling, the clear waters revealed a vibrant array of fish and beautiful coral reefs, creating a sense of entering another world. The staff were always attentive and very kind, making it easy for a first-timer like me to participate without any anxiety. This experience on Ishigaki Island was not only a chance to appreciate the richness of nature but also to feel the warmth of the people, making it truly special.

石垣島では、マングローブの中でSUPと、珊瑚礁が広がる海でシュノーケリングを体験しました。SUPでは、静かな川をゆっくり進みながら、両側に広がるマングローブの自然を間近で感じることができ、とても癒されました。最初はバランスを取るのが少し難しかったですが、スタッフさんが丁寧に乗り方やコツを教えてくださり、安心して楽しむことができました。シュノーケリングでは、透き通った海の中に色とりどりの魚や美しい珊瑚礁が広がっていて、まるで別の世界に入ったような感動がありました。スタッフさんも常に気を配ってくださり、とても親切で、初めてでも不安なく参加できました。自然の豊かさだけでなく、人の温かさも感じられる、石垣島ならではの素晴らしい体験になりました。

The guide was an incredibly knowledgeable woman, and her smooth articulation was as fluid as water on a flat board. Despite the rainy, cloudy weather, she shared the island's history and many fun events with us. The half-day itinerary felt very short.

実に博識な女性のガイドさんで、まさに立板に水の様に滑らかな滑舌は、雨混じりの曇天にも関わらず島の歴史や沢山の楽しい出来事を教えていただいた。半日の行程がすごく短く感じられた。

Once we entered the World Heritage area, we were able to see scenery that cannot be found on the mainland, and the tour itself was great. However, despite confirming the meeting place multiple times over the phone the day before, the bus passed right by us. Fortunately, the owner of our accommodation drove us to catch up with the bus, and we managed to get on. If it hadn't been for that, we would have missed the tour.

世界遺産の区域内へ入ると内地では見られない景色もみられて、ツアー自体は良かったが朝の待ち合わせ場所を、前日に電話で何度も確認したにもかかわらず、バスが我々の前を通りすぎてしまい、宿の主人が我々を車に乗せておいかけて行ってくれて、何とか乗れたがそうでなかったら、ツアーに参加できないところだった。

I was guided by Kousei. He is fluent in Japanese, so I had nothing to worry about. In advance, he sent me an email with not only the meeting time and place but also the bus number we would be taking that day and a photo of the flag as a landmark, which made it easy for me to head to the meeting spot. We were the only Japanese people, but I really appreciated that he provided the guidance in English first and then in Japanese. If I have another opportunity, I would love to join him on another tour.

We were able to see Mount Fuji beautifully without any clouds. The black eggs at Owakudani were delicious and had a mild flavor. It was a bit disappointing that Oshino Hakkai had become too commercialized.

Kouseiさんにガイドしていただきました。日本語も堪能で何も心配することはありませんでした。事前にEmailで、集合時間や集合場所はもとより、当日乗車するバスのナンバーや、目印となる旗の写真も送っていただいて安心して集合場所へ向かうことができました。日本人は私たちだけでしたが、英語でガイドのあと、日本語でもしていただきとても感謝です。また機会がありましたら、他のツアーでご一緒させていただきたいです。
富士山は雲がかかることなくきれいに観ることができました。大涌谷の黒たまご、味がまろやかで美味しかったです。忍野八海は観光地化されてしまって少し残念でした。

We set off in the rain, but it turned into a light drizzle and eventually stopped. The journey included unpaved paths and narrow mountain trails scattered with rocks and stones, making it challenging to pass by those coming down the mountain. We listened to the knowledgeable explanations from our oldest legendary guide, Mr. Nakaba, who also took photos at key points. After a tough two-hour trek, we finally reached the moss-covered valley. The descent was exhausting as well.

雨の中の出発になりましたが、途中からは小雨になりやがて雨も止んでくれました。
道中は、途中から整備されていない道とか岩や石ころが散乱した細い山道で、下山すら方たちとのすれ違いもやっとの山道を、最年長レジェンドガイドの中馬さんの知識豊富な説明を聞き、要所要所で撮影をして下さり、やっとの思いで苔むす谷まで2時間ほどでたどり着くことが出来ました。
クダリもしんどかった。

After landing, I was told the order of the shoot by the staff, and it was great. The way the staff spoke was friendly and welcoming.

上陸後、スタッフの方から撮影の順番を言われて撮影しましたが、スタッフの方の話し方など親しみやすく最高でした。

On the day of participation, the weather was unfortunately bad, and I joined with the hope that it would clear up. However, during the drone filming, there was miraculously a break in the clouds, and I had the best experience! If there’s another opportunity, I would definitely like to use this service again.

参加当日は生憎の天気で、晴れたら良いな〜くらいの気持ちで参加しましたが、ドローン撮影時は奇跡的に晴れ間が除き、最高の体験が出来ました！
また機会があれば、是非とも利用したく思います。

The photographer was kind and easy to talk to, making the time fly by. The starry sky was beautiful, and I'm currently waiting for the photos, but I'm really looking forward to them.

カメラマンさんが親切で会話しやすく、時間が過ぎるのが早かったです。
星空も綺麗で現在は写真待ちですが、とても楽しみです。

The driver was very pleasant, and I appreciate the enjoyable sightseeing experience. There was no sense of overstepping, yet it didn't feel lacking either; it was a perfectly balanced guide.

ドライバーさんがとても感じ良く、気分の良い観光をさせて頂き、感謝です。
差し出がましさ感もなく、かといって、物足りなさも感じさせず、程よい塩梅のガイドでした。
