All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I'm glad I received the notification about the time change the day before (since it coincided with low tide).

Also, the instructor was very kind and attentive.

It was a truly precious and mystical experience to see sea turtles in their natural habitat!

We took a lot of photos, and I believe it has become a lifelong memory for my child.

I really recommend this!

前日に時間変更（干潮の時間と重なってしまうため）の連絡をいただいて良かったです。

また、インストラクターの方もとても親切で丁寧でした。

自然のウミガメを見れるなんて、とても貴重で神秘的な体験をさせていただきました！

写真もたくさん撮っていただき、子供にとっては一生の想い出になったと思います。

これはホントにオススメです！

We visited as a family of three, including our 7-year-old child. It was a hot and sunny day, but we had a great time.

The mangrove tour, the water buffalo cart, and Taketomi Island were all wonderful. However, the highlight was definitely the stories shared by the boat captain, the water buffalo cart guide, and the bus driver about the local area. Each of their stories made the tour even more enjoyable.

7歳の子供を含めた家族3人で利用しました。
蒸し暑く日差しの強い一日でしたが、とてま楽しめました。

マングローブ遊覧も水牛車も竹富島もどれも素敵です。
しかし一番はやはり遊覧船の運転手の方や、水牛車のガイドの方や、移動のバスの運転手さんが話してくれる地域の話でした。
それぞれの話があってまた更にツアーが楽しいものになりました。

It was a fun tour packed with various highlights. However, it can be affected by the weather... Also, it can be tough if there are people who don't stick to the departure time.

いろいろ詰まったツアーで楽しかったです。
見どころ満載。ただ天気に左右される恐れがありますので…
あと、出発時間を守らない人が居るとツラい。

I was sore from the Jomon Sugi trekking the day before, but I enjoyed the bus tour as it efficiently took us around Yakushima. The bus guide, Ayumi Otsuka, shared stories that enhanced the tour experience with great pacing. Thank you very much.
*Note: The road to the Western Forest Road was closed due to the impact of Typhoon No. 6.*

前日の縄文杉トレッキングで身体がバキバキでしたが、バスツアーで屋久島を効率良く周遊してくれるので楽しめました。
バスガイドの大塚あゆみさんのお話しがテンポよくツアーの良さを更に引き出してくれてました。
ありがとうございました。
※台風6号の影響で西部林道への道が閉鎖されておりました。

It happened to be a day when the stars were beautifully visible, and I was able to take great photos with many stars! Posing was a bit embarrassing, but the photographer led the way, so I naturally lost my shyness. If you want memorable photos, this is definitely the place!

たまたま星が綺麗に見える日ではあったのですがたくさんの星と一緒にいい写真を撮ってもらえました！
ポーズとか少し恥ずかしいですが、撮影者の方がリードしてくれるので自然と恥ずかしさがなくなります。
思い出の写真が欲しいなら間違いなしです！

I participated with my elementary school daughter. Since we are city kids and have never done any hiking, I was worried, but thanks to our guide, we were able to safely reach the moss-covered forest. I was really happy that we could take a lot of photos and create many memories with my daughter in the beautiful scenery of Yakushima.

There are many water spots and muddy areas, and since we walked for over three hours, our sneakers got quite wet. There are also many slippery places, so I think trekking shoes are essential for children. Although it is cool in the forest, you will sweat a lot in the summer, so I recommend bringing plenty of water.

小学生の娘と2人で参加しました。登山などしたことがない都会っ子なので心配でしたが、ガイドさんのおかげで、苔むす森まで無事に行ってくることができました。
写真をたくさん撮ってくださり、屋久島らしい風景の中、娘との思い出をいっぱい残せたのが嬉しかったです。
水場やぬかるんでいる場所が多く、3時間以上歩くので、スニーカーだとかなり濡れてしまいます。滑りやすい場所も多いので、お子さんにもトレッキングシューズが必須かと思います。また、森の中は涼しいとはいえ夏はびっしょり汗をかくので、水は多めに用意するのがおすすめです。

I wanted to visit places featured in suspense dramas, as requested by my elderly mother. We were guided to many locations, including the filming sites of "The Woman of the Forensic Science Laboratory," the Kamogawa Delta, the Waterway Pavilion at Nanzen-ji Temple, and Arashiyama. We even went to the former residences of Misa Yamamura and Kyotaro Nishimura. We enjoyed a cool and easy tour around the sweltering heat of Kyoto, and we were very satisfied! The driver's explanations were also easy to understand.

サスペンスドラマに出てくる場所に行きたい!という高齢の母のオーダに
科捜研の女のロケ地や鴨川デルタ、南禅寺の水路閣、嵐山とたくさん案内してくださいました。
果ては山村美紗さんと西村京太郎さんの旧ご自宅まで。
猛暑の京都を涼しく楽々に周り、大満足です!
ドライバーさんのご説明もわかりやすかったです。

The meeting place was a bit hard to find, and even though I arrived early with someone else who was departing from the same location, we had to wait a long time for the person in charge to arrive. When I called, I found out they were right behind us. The driver and the tour guide were both great, so I’m glad I participated, but I was really disappointed with the food as it was very unappetizing.

待ち合わせ場所がいまいち分かりにくく、同じ場所から出発の人と予定時刻より早く着いたのに待ち、なかなか担当の方が来ないので電話したら、すぐ真裏にいらっしゃいました。
運転手さんと添乗員さんがとてもよかったので、参加して良かったですが、ご飯がまずすぎてガッカリしました

The comfortable and safe bus, the polite and concise guidance in both Japanese and English, and the wonderful experiences at the destinations were all fantastic. If I had to mention something, the heat of midsummer was a bit tough, but there's nothing we can do about that.

快適で安全運転のバス、和英両方での丁寧かつコンパクトなガイドさんご説明、訪問先での素晴らしい経験等、どれも素晴らしかったです。強いて言えば真夏の暑さだけがしんどかったですが、こればっかりはどうしようもないことです。

I had a sudden back injury right before my trip, so I switched from kayaking to the Yakusugi Land tour. Two days ago, I visited Yakusugi Land with a private guide, but I thought it would still be fun to go again, so I made a reservation.

As expected, having a bus guide's explanations deepened my understanding of Yakushima. Additionally, the photos taken were absolutely wonderful, and I was able to create many great memories. Yakusugi Land is a place worth visiting multiple times.

Thank you for the enjoyable tour!

ぎっくり腰を直前に患い、カヤックからヤクザル号ツアーに変更致しました。
2日前に貸切ガイドさんとヤクスギランドには訪れましたが、2度目でも楽しいかなぁ、と予約致しました。
やはり、バスガイドさんの説明があるとより屋久島への理解が深まりましたね。また、御写真撮りが大変素晴らしく、良い記念が沢山作れました。ヤクスギランドは、何度も行っても良い所でした。
楽しいツアー有難うございました

It would be nice to have time to move around while looking at the tourist map, but the conversations with the locals were valuable and very enjoyable. I definitely want to use this again next time.

観光マップを見て動くのも時間があればいいのですが現地の方のお話は、貴重でとてもよかったです。次もぜひ利用したいです。

After considering a rental car or a sightseeing bus, I chose a charter taxi, and it was a great decision. The local driver provided various information and recommendations, making it a very enjoyable experience!

レンタカーか観光バスを検討し結果
貸切タクシーを選んだのですが良かったです。
現地の運転手さんが色々な情報やお勧めを教えてくださりとても楽しかったです!

It was my first time on a tour by microbus. I was scared of the driving. But I had four hours of free time. I think that's enough for me now.

マイクロバスでのツアーは、初めてでした。
運転が怖かったです。
でも４時間自由時間頂きました。
でももういいかな。

I was wondering if I would be able to see sea turtles, and as soon as I entered the water, I was able to see them right away! It was amazing to see so many sea turtles! Thank you very much!

海ガメにあえるかなぁ？と思いながら、出発！海に入るとなんとすぐに会えて！たくさんの海ガメにあえて最高でした！ありがとうございました！

First of all, most of the tour participants were from overseas, and my son and I were the only Japanese. However, the tour guide provided guidance in Japanese just for us.
We started at Asahiyama Zoo and enjoyed the unique nature of Hokkaido. I especially savored the magnificent views of the Blue Pond and Shirahige Falls.
The lunch was also very delicious, with a variety of options like Genghis Khan and Asahikawa ramen, allowing us to enjoy the food of Hokkaido.
Even the long travel time felt short thanks to the guide's anecdotes! The scenery visible from the window was beautiful and moving.

まず、ツアーの参加者は海外の方が大半で日本人は私と息子だけでしたが、ツアーガイドの方は私たちのために日本語でもガイドしてくださりました。
　まず旭川動物園から始まり、北海道特有の自然とを楽しめました。特に青い池と白髭の滝などの雄大な景色を堪能しました。
　お昼ご飯もとても美味しく、ジンギスカンや旭川ラーメンなどたくさんの種類があり北海道の食を楽しめました。
　長い移動時間もガイドさんの小話で時間を感じず過ごすことができました！窓から見える景色も綺麗で感動しました。

We used this service for a family trip with two children, a fourth grader and a four-year-old.

I was anxious about driving in an unfamiliar area, so I requested a 10-hour service from 8:00 to 18:00.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, we took a photo at the entrance, which became a wonderful memory.

We didn't have a lunch plan, but we were guided to a delicious Soki soba restaurant.

Although there was a distance to our accommodation in the southern region, the children slept well during the journey, feeling safe.

We were able to visit all the places we wanted to go, and we were extremely satisfied.

Thank you for spending the entire day with us.

小学生と４歳子供２人を連れての家族旅行で利用しました。

知らない土地の運転に不安があり、8:00〜18:00まで10時間お願いしました。

美ら海水族館では、入り口で写真を撮っていただきいい思い出になりました。

昼食はノープランだったのですが、美味しいソーキそばのお店に案内していただきました。

南部の宿泊先まで距離があったのですが、子供達は安心して移動中よく眠っていました。

行きたかった所全て周る事が出来て、大大大満足でした。

丸1日お付き合いいただき、ありがとうございました。

The Nakama River cruise had great weather, and I was able to see an abundance of mangroves. The experience of crossing to Water Buffalo Island for the first time was also interesting. It was a pity that the time spent at Yufu Island was short, and I couldn't relax.

仲間川遊覧は天気も良く、これでもか！
ってほどマングローブを見る事ができました。
初めての水牛島渡りも面白かった
由布島での滞在時間が短く、ゆっくりできなくて
残念でした

Thank you for the detailed explanation about constellations; it was refreshing. I was touched to understand the background and significance. I appreciate the care taken in creating the photos from shooting to finishing. Thank you for the extraordinary experience.

星座の話を丁寧に説明していただき、新鮮でした。背景と意義を理解できプチ感動でした。写真は、撮影から仕上げまで丁寧に作成していただき感謝です。
非日常を体験できありがとうございました。

We had a photoshoot to commemorate our honeymoon in Miyako Island! The photographer was very friendly, which made it easy for us to relax and enjoy the session. The photos turned out beautifully, and we were really impressed!

After the shoot, we had a little chat, and he shared tips on photographing Miyako Island with our smartphones, making it a very enjoyable experience!

宮古島の新婚旅行記念に撮影させていただきました！
おにいさんもすごく親しみやすい方で緊張せず楽しく撮影できました！
写真も綺麗に撮れていて感動しました！

撮影後も少しお話させていただいて、宮古島のことスマホでの撮影のコツも教えて頂きとても楽しい体験になりました！

Due to the depreciation of the yen, 70% of the participants were foreigners, and 30% were Japanese. There were Japanese tour guides who spoke English and Chinese, as well as a guide who spoke Korean. The explanations on the bus were provided in Japanese and English, and additional explanations were given in Chinese as needed. As a result, all participants adhered to the meeting time and manners, allowing everyone to enjoy their time together.

円安の影響で外国人７割、3割が日本人。英語、中国語を話す日本人添乗員、韓国語を話す添乗員が同行、車内の説明は日本語と英語で、必要に応じて中国語で説明してくれました。そのため、集合時間、マナーは参加者の皆さんが順守し、お互い楽しく過ごすことができました。

It was truly wonderful to experience the famous sites of Kyoto within a limited time, as it would be challenging to visit these four places on my own. However, given the limited time, the schedule was very tight. I thought I understood this in advance, but it was tighter than I expected, and I wished I had a bit more time at Kiyomizu-dera. Overall, I am grateful for the amazing experience!

この4箇所を自力で周ろうとするには限界があり、限られた時間内で京都の名所を体験出来たことは本当に素晴らしかったです。
一方で限られた時間だけあってスケジュールが非常にタイト。
予め理解していたつもりだが、思っていたよりタイトで特に清水寺はもう少し時間が欲しかったですね。
しかし総じて素晴らしい体験が出来た事に感謝しております！

Although I made a reservation the day before, I was able to participate and see many fish up close, including sea turtles and clownfish. I was of course moved by the experience with my own eyes, but I was also impressed by the beauty of the photos I received! They looked almost like composites. I was happy to receive the data on the same day and with so many photos. During the experience, the staff frequently checked in to see if we were feeling well, and thanks to being pulled along by a float, my 7-year-old daughter was able to enjoy herself safely until the end. It became a wonderful memory.

前日の予約でしたが参加させて頂き、ウミガメやクマノミなど沢山のお魚も間近で見ることが出来ました。
肉眼でももちろん感動しましたが、頂いた写真のキレイさにも感動しました！まるで合成のような美しさです。データを即日納品頂けたことと枚数の多さも嬉しかったです。
体験中は、体調など問題ないか度々声を掛けてくださったり、7歳の娘は浮き輪で引っ張って頂いたおかげで最後まで安心して楽しむことが出来、大変良い思い出になりました。

I have never forgotten the trip I took in my twenties, driving from my hometown of Tokyo, taking a ferry from Aomori, and exploring Hokkaido for a few days without any reservations. After moving to Kawasaki City in Kanagawa Prefecture, experiencing marriage, childbirth, and divorce, I found myself in my fifties, all the while wishing to return to Hokkaido. My son has now become a working adult, and since I often talked about my memories of Hokkaido, he too dreamed of visiting. We decided to take a bus tour for one night and two days, with only 22 hours in Hokkaido. The weather was perfect, and everything was wonderful.

At Farm Tomita, as soon as we stepped in, we were greeted by the scent of lavender. Eating Furano melon and washing our hands at the water station, I was amazed by the coldness of the water. The blue pond was just as beautiful as I had seen online. My son bought a blue fox plush toy at the souvenir shop near the blue pond. At first, I thought, "Wait, is a 24-year-old guy really buying a plush toy?" But now, seeing the blue fox displayed in our living room, I realize it’s a rare treasure that isn’t sold here, and I’m glad he bought it.

Since we don’t drink alcohol, I planned to buy grape juice during the winery tour, but they only offered it by the cup on-site, which was disappointing because I wanted to take some home. The rolling hills, wheat fields, and flower patches were unlike anything in Tokyo or Kanagawa. The forest colors were also different; while Kanto has deep greens, Hokkaido had bright, vivid greens. The roofs of houses were designed to prevent snow accumulation, and I saw a drum can standing on a platform next to a house, which I had never seen before. Everything felt fresh and new.

The bus driver was excellent, and the bus guide shared many memorable stories about Hokkaido that I listened to intently. I was deeply moved by the history of Farm Tomita, particularly the story of how the owner’s wife convinced him to continue the lavender farm for one more year, which led to the spread of beautiful photos of the lavender fields. I learned that life can change unexpectedly, and even if things don’t seem to change now, there’s always a possibility for something to change if you don’t give up.

There were some place names on the blue road signs that I couldn’t read, which made the trip even more enjoyable. I didn’t want to waste a moment sleeping on the bus, especially since plane tickets are expensive and I don’t know when I’ll be able to come back. I made sure to remember everything.

I won’t mention names since they are personal, but I still have the names of the bus driver and guide saved in my phone. The guide mentioned that there are hardly any amusement parks in Hokkaido, and the one we saw was one of only a couple in the area. I felt fortunate to have learned this because I was sitting in the front row and had the chance to ask questions.

After 27 years, visiting Hokkaido in the summer was different from before; the climate has changed, and it was more humid and hot compared to back then. Although it was a whirlwind trip with only 22 hours, I’m glad I went. I hope to travel to Hokkaido again before I die, as it is my favorite prefecture. If I have the chance to visit again, I hope to have the same bus driver and guide. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

20代の頃に地元東京から車を走らせ青森からフェリーに乗って宿も取らずに行き当たりばったりで数日間北海道をめぐった旅を忘れられずにいました。神奈川県川崎市に越し、結婚、出産、離婚を経験し、また北海道に行きたいと常々思いながら必死に子供を育てて気付いたら50代を過ぎていました。息子も社会人になり常日頃私が北海道の思い出を話していたので息子も北海道へ夢を馳せ、思い切って1泊2日、北海道滞在時間22時間ですが親子でバスツアーに参加。お天気にも恵まれ、全てが素敵でした。ファーム富田は一歩足を踏み入れたら一面ラベンダーの香り。富良野メロンを食べてファーム内の水道場で手を洗えば水の冷たさに感動し、青い池は何度もネット上で見た通りの素敵な色。息子は青い池のお土産屋で青いキツネのぬいぐるみを買っていました。え？24歳の男子がぬいぐるみ買うの？とその時は思いましたが今リビングに飾られた青いキツネを見るとこっちでは売ってないんだよなぁ貴重な宝物だなと、買って良かったなってキツネを愛しく撫でてしまいます。親子でお酒は飲まないのでワイン工場見学ではぶどうジュースを購入しようと思っていましたがその場で瓶での購入はやっていなく今はカップ1杯でいくらという購入方法でその場で飲むしかありません。買って帰りたかったのでそこは残念でした。東京や神奈川には無い、眼前に広がる丘陵そして麦畑やお花畑のパッチワーク。また森林の色も関東では深緑が多い中、北海道は目が覚めるような鮮やかな明るい緑が多く、住宅の屋根は雪が積もらないように(？)片側だけの屋根。家の横にはこちらでは見た事のない、ドラム缶が横にして台の上に立ててある…ちょっとうまく説明出来ませんが何もかもが新鮮でした。バスの運転手さんはさすが運転が上手く、バスガイドさんの話は本当に心に残る北海道の話を多くされて一言も聞きもらすもんかと食い気味に聞いていました。今のファーム富田があるのは【もうラベンダー畑をやめようと思ったオーナーをあと一年やってみようと引き留めた奥様の言葉、そしてその一年の間にある方の撮ったファーム富田のラベンダー畑の写真が世に広がったから】という歴史に痛く感動し涙が溢れました。人生どこに転機が訪れるかわからない、今は変わらなくても諦めなければ何かが変わる可能性だってあるんだという事を教えてもらいました。青い道路標識を見ても読めない地名もちらほらあり、それを見るだけでも楽しくてバスの中で寝るなんてもったいない、飛行機代だって高いしまたいつ来れるかわからないからと全て目に焼きつけて帰ってきました。
個人名になるので名前は記しませんが、バスの運転手さんとバスガイドさんの名前は今も携帯のメモ機能に保存しています。遠くに見える遊園地の事をバスガイドさんは北海道には遊園地が殆どないのであれは道内で1つ2つあるうちの1つなんですよと教えてくれました。これも最前列の席に座れたおかげで話しかけたから教えてもらえた事で今でも得した気分です。27年振りの夏の北海道、昔と違って気候が変わり当時に比べて湿度があり暑かったし22時間滞在の弾丸でしたが行って良かったです。またいつか死ぬ前にもう一度でも北海道に旅が出来たらと思います。都道府県の中で一番好きな地。またお世話になる事があれば同じ運転手さんとバスガイドさんに当たればいいな。本当に素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。

I was comforted by the coffee and snack breaks during the bus ride. I participated in the tour with my friends, and I was grateful for the kind assistance from the bus guide, who actively took photos for us at the sightseeing spots.

旅の途中のバスの中で、コーヒー休憩とお菓子休憩があったことに心が癒されました。
友達とツアーに参加したのですがバスガイドの案内の対応も優しく、停車した観光地で積極的に写メを撮ってくれることに感謝が泊まりませんでした笑

We participated as a family.
It's recommended for families with children and those who are not good at swimming since you can meet sea turtles in the shallow waters.
They also take photos for each family, so we were able to get a lot of great pictures.
The staff was very friendly, and we had a wonderful time.

家族で参加させて頂きました。
浅瀬でウミガメに会えるので子連れの方や泳ぎが苦手な方にもお勧めです。
写真も家族毎に撮影してくれるので、いい写真がたくさん撮れました。
スタッフの方もとても親切で楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

I participated during my free time at the airport. A dandy bus guide takes you around the sights along with shamisen music and beautiful island songs. It includes a meal and airport transfer, so I can recommend it if you want to compactly visit the highlights of Ishigaki Island.

They also point out exquisite photo spots, so it's a good idea to actively ask for photos!

空港前の空き時間に参加。三味線と素敵な島唄とともに、ダンディーなバスガイドさんが名所を回ってくれます。お食事つきで空港送迎ありなので、コンパクトに石垣島の名所を回りたい場合にはお勧めできます。

絶妙なフォトスポットも教えていただけるので、積極的にお写真をお願いするといいです！！

It was my first time trekking, but thanks to the guides' interesting explanations and quizzes, I had a lot of fun climbing! Of course, since it was trekking, there were moments when I thought it was tough on my body, but the sense of accomplishment when I reached the top was truly amazing! I almost forgot about the pain in my body.
This is definitely a place I recommend everyone to visit at least once in their lifetime! ✨
I'm also grateful to the guides for taking wonderful photos!
Thank you so much!!!

初めてのトレッキングでしたが、ガイドさんたちの面白い説明やクイズなどで、とても楽しく登ることができました！もちろんトレッキングなので、体がつらい！！と思うこともありましたが、登りきったときの達成感は本当にすごいです！体の痛みを忘れるくらいでした
一生に一度はぜひ行ってもらいたい場所です✨
写真もガイドさんにステキに撮っていただいて感謝です！
本当にありがとうございました！！！

After the daytime mangroves and Pinai Sara Falls, we participated in a stargazing session led by a professional, which was breathtaking and created unforgettable memories.

While enjoying the lovely twilight, we headed out for a night canoe trip. Unlike during the day, the calm waves allowed us to move slowly, and as we glided through the mangroves in silence, we experienced nature up close with many bats flying nearby.

As we returned from the mangroves, stars began to appear one by one, and before we knew it, the sky was filled with countless stars. Additionally, bioluminescent plankton started to show up near the canoe, allowing us to enjoy a wonderful night.

We even received lovely souvenirs, making our unforgettable memories of Iriomote Island even more special! I highly recommend this for family trips as well as for couples!

昼のマングローブとピナイサーラの滝に続いて参加。プロが解説する星空は圧巻で、忘れられない思い出でした。
素敵なトワイライト時間を楽しみつつ、ナイトカヌーへ。。。
昼間と違い静かな波のためゆっくりと進むことができ、静寂の中マングローブを進んでいくと近くをたくさんのこうもりが飛んできて自然を体感出来ました。

マングローブから戻るとぽつぽつと星が現れ始め、気付くとあたり一面は満天の星空に。。。そして、カヌーの近くには夜光虫が現れ始め、素敵な夜を過ごすことが出来ました。

素敵なお土産までいただき、忘れられない西表島も思い出になりました！
家族旅行はもちろん、カップルにもお勧めです！

I was surprised at how smart the water buffalo cart was! The guidance was also polite and easy to understand. I learned a lot.

水牛車が賢くてびっくりしました！
案内も丁寧でわかりやすかったです。勉強になることがたくさんありました。

The male guide was very nice! He recommended great cafes, shops selling sake, and the best spots for taking photos. I participated alone, but I could tell he was considerate about the bus and meal seating arrangements. I think the driver had a tough time with the traffic during the holiday. Thank you very much!

男性のガイドさんですが、とても良い方でした！おすすめの喫茶店や、どふろくの売ってるお店、写真を撮るのに最高な場所など教えてもらいました！
一人参加てしたがバス、食事の席順まで気を使ってくれているのが分かりました。
お盆で道が渋滞していてドライバーさんも大変だったと思います。
本当にありがとうございました！
