All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

The morning pickup was a bit of a hassle, but the guide was kind and it was a lot of fun. I was satisfied with the tour in terms of content and cost performance. I was alone this time, but I want to come with my family next time!

朝のピックアップは若干面倒でしたが、ガイドさんも親切でとても楽しかったです。
内容的にも、コスパ的にも満足の行くツアーでした。
今回は一人でしたが、今度は家族で来たいです！

Since it was a private tour, we were able to enjoy ourselves without worrying about those around us. During the journey to Shirakawa-go, the scenery visible from the car was explained to us, allowing us to experience not just a simple transfer but also touch upon the culture and history.

Once we arrived at Shirakawa-go, we were guided to the observation deck, and afterwards, we had free time, which was nice as it allowed us to have some time just for ourselves even in a private setting.

The schedule included Gokayama as well, but there was no guidance to Gokayama. Since we mentioned in the car that we had been to Gokayama once, there might have been a misunderstanding, but the return time to Kanazawa was as scheduled, so I thought our stay in Shirakawa-go was extended and didn’t mention it to the driver.

Overall, we were able to enjoy sightseeing, and the travel was very comfortable, so I’m glad we chose this service. Thank you very much.

貸切なので、周りを気にすることなく楽しめました。
白川郷へ向かう道中も車内から見える景色を説明していただいて、単なる移動ではなく、文化や歴史にも触れることができました。

白川郷へ着いてからは展望台を案内していただいてその後は自由行動なので、貸切といえど適度に自分たちだけの時間が確保されるのも良かったです。

スケジュールには五箇山も記載ありましたが、五箇山への案内はありませんでした。車内で一度五箇山に言ったことがあるなどの話をしていたので勘違いをされたのかもしれませんが、金沢へ戻る時間はスケジュール通りでしたので、白川郷での滞在が増えたと思い、ドライバーさんへもお伝えしませんでした。

ただ楽しく観光でき、移動もとっても快適でこちらにお願いして良かったです。ありがとうございました。

I participated in the tour at the recommendation of a friend. After seeing the lifestyle of that time through videos and sets at the digital museum, we boarded a ship for about a 40-minute voyage. The guide was someone who had worked on Gunkanjima. Hearing the historical accounts in their own voice helped me understand Gunkanjima very well, including the hardships of the work back then and the cutting-edge lifestyle. I saw large buildings that will collapse in a few months. It's unfortunate, but it seems to be an inevitable part of the flow of history. This tour was a very memorable part of my trip. I pray that the 84-year-old guide continues to stay healthy and keep going.

友人の勧めでツアーに参加しました。
デジタルミュージアムで当時の生活を映像やセットで見て下準備後、船に乗り込み40分ほどの航海。
ガイドさんが軍艦島で働いていた方でした。
歴史の実録を生の声で聞けたので、軍艦島の事が大変よくわかりました。当時の仕事のつらさや、
最先端の生活様式など。。。
あと数ヶ月で崩れ落ちてしまう大きな建物を見ました。残念ですが、歴史の流れの一部として仕方がない事なのでしょう。
今回の旅でとても印象に残るツアーでした。
84歳のガイドさん、お元気で続けていかれる事をお祈りしています。

I participated with the goal of visiting the Churaumi Aquarium. I could have done without Pineapple Park and the Okashi Goten. I would have preferred to spend more time exploring Kouri Island.

美ら海水族館が目的で参加しました。
パイナップルパークとお菓子御殿は無くてもいいかも。
その分古宇利島の散策に時間をとってほしかったかな

Since it was after spring break, there were only four participants in the tour, and the compact seafood lunch was very filling. The small souvenirs were also great. The weather at Cape Henoko, the northernmost point, was excellent, and the scenery was stunning. At each destination, there were few people since it was before the holiday, allowing us to enjoy everything at a leisurely pace. Thank you to the guide (I forgot the name) for the many explanations.

春休み後なのでツアー参加者も4名とコンパクト海鮮ランチもボリュウム満点、小さなお土産も最高でした。
最北の辺戸岬も天気最高、景色も最高でした。
行く先々も連休前なので人も少なくてゆっくりと楽しめました。
ツアーを案内していただいた（名前忘れました）方、たくさんの説明ありがとうございました。

In the morning, I did stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and in the afternoon, I went snorkeling! Both guides were very friendly, and I had a great time! Especially during snorkeling, I was able to see wild sea turtles and clownfish up close, which made me very satisfied! I was also grateful for the beautiful photos that were taken! I would love to request this again when I come back to Miyako Island! Thank you!

午前中にSUP、午後にシュノーケルをしました！どちらもガイドの方が非常に気さくで楽しむことができました！特にシュノーケルでは野生のウミガメやクマノミを直近で見られたので大満足です！また撮影いただいた写真がとても綺麗で有り難かったです！また宮古島に来る時はお願いしたいなと思いました！ありがとうございました！

I was relieved that they brought trekking shoes to the airport on the arrival day and matched them for us. My son, who is in his twenties, participated, and since the trekking group was made up of people from the same generation, he was able to walk at a young person's pace. He was able to see Jomon Sugi and was guided to various places on the way there and back.

到着日に空港にトレッキングシューズなどを持ってきてくださり合わせてくださったので安心できました。参加したのは２０歳台の息子でしたが、トレッキングは同じ世代の人のグループだったので若者のペースで歩けて、縄文杉はもちろん、行きかえりにいろいろなところを案内してもらえたそうです。

The bus provides a shuttle service to the hotel, which is reassuring. Due to COVID-19 measures, each person uses two seats. The local bus guide shared stories from their childhood to the present, making the tour enjoyable. In fact, I had already visited Yakusugi Land and the Jomon Sugi by rental car the day before, but having a guide made everything clearer. The itinerary is packed, but the pace is relaxed, accommodating everyone from students to elderly individuals with canes. It was great to encounter Yakuzaru and Yakushika on the Eastern Forest Road.

ホテルまでバスが送迎してくれるので安心です。
コロナ対応で一人2座席利用。
地元育ちのバスガイドさんの子供時代から現在の話を交えてのガイドが楽しかったです。実は参加日の前の日にレンタカーでヤクスグランドと紀元杉以外は回っていたのですがガイドさんつきのほうがよくわかります。盛沢山ですがゆったりペースで回れるので学生の方から杖をついたおじいちゃんまでいらっしゃいました。
東部林道でヤクザル　ヤクシカにもあうことができてよかったです。

I live in Tokyo, and I enjoyed my first ride.
While listening to the announcements, I was able to appreciate Tokyo Tower from various angles.
The Rainbow Bridge had strong winds, and unfortunately, I couldn't hear the announcements; it was so intense that I felt like I might be thrown into the sea, which was quite scary. It was a hot summer day, but measures for warmth and wind protection are essential.

東京在住ですが、初めて乗って楽しめました。
アナウンスの説明を聞きながら、色んな角度からの東京タワーが堪能できました。
レインボーブリッジは風が強くて、残念ながらアナウンスが聞こえず、海に放り出されそうで怖いくらいの迫力でした。夏日で暑かったですが、防寒防風対策は必須です。

The weather was wonderful, and the natural planetarium was visible across the night sky! As the moon gradually got smaller, the number of visible stars increased, creating a truly magical atmosphere. During the shoot, I was lucky enough to see shooting stars as well. I left all the poses up to them, but they provided various instructions, which was very helpful! The props were lovely too! I was so moved to receive the data the next day and see how beautiful the photos turned out. It's quite difficult to capture the night sky on my own, so this became a lifelong memory. Thank you very much!

天気に恵まれ、天然のプラネタリウムが夜空一面に見えました！月がだんだん小さくなるにつれ、見える星の数が増えていく様子はとても幻想的です。撮影中は、流れ星も見ることが出来てとてもラッキーでした。ポーズは全てお任せでしたが、色々と指示してくれたのでとても助かりました！小道具も素敵ですよ！データを翌日にお送りいただき、こんなに素敵な写真になるんだとただただ感動します。星空の写真は自分で撮ることはなかなか難しいので一生の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

I signed up for a bus tour because I wasn't confident in my physical stamina. I don't think I would have been able to explore on my own. I was able to enjoy the tour while receiving a lot of information from the guide.

体力に自信がないため、バスツアーに申し込みました。
一人ではきっと回れなかったと思います。
ガイドさんから、すごく沢山の情報がきけて、楽しく回れました。

There is a great value in being able to explore places that you can't fully experience alone with a guided tour. The guide provided a lot of explanations, and I had a very meaningful time.

一人では回りきれない場所を、ガイド付きで回れるお得感があります。
ガイドさんから、沢山説明をいただき、とても有意義な時間を過ごせました。

Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage site I had always wanted to visit. Although there was still some snow, the weather was clear and warm, allowing for a leisurely stroll, and I am very satisfied.

一度は行ってみたかった世界遺産の白川郷。雪は残っていたものの晴天で暖かくゆっくりと散策できて大変満足しています。

It was a sunny day for sightseeing. The waves were calm, and the sightseeing boat (Jupiter) was comfortable as it didn't sway much.
As for the boarding order, it seems to follow the sequence of premium reservations first, then general reservations, but it didn't feel like it was based on the order of check-in on the day. Perhaps it follows the order of check-in at the time of tour reservation?
You receive a numbered ticket, and it’s something like "Passengers with numbers 20 to 50, please board," so if you want a good seat, it's best to stay close to the boarding aisle.
Also, for the return boarding after landing, the same rule applies, so it's good to return to the boarding area early from the last sightseeing point.
Regarding the sightseeing, the explanations at the museum and the introduction of the facilities covered the cutting-edge technology and entertainment of the time in great detail, which was very good.
When landing, there are times when you can't go to the restroom, so make sure to use the restroom before boarding.
Food is not allowed, but drinks are okay, so it might be a good idea to bring some.
I hope to see a different view in a few years.

晴天の観光でした。波も穏やか、また観光船（ジュピター）揺れにくいとのことで快適でした。
乗船順番ですが、プレミア予約者、一般予約の順ですが当日の受付順？ではないような感じでした。ツアー予約時の受付順かな？
番号札をもらって【20番～50番の方乗船ください】みたいな感じなので、良い席を取りたいなら乗船の通路の近くにいるとよいです。
また上陸後の帰りの乗船も同じく、早い順に席が取れるので最終観光ポイントから早めに乗船場所に戻るとよいです。
観光ですがミュージアムでの説明～施設の紹介など当時の先端技術、娯楽など
非常に詳しく話していただきとてもよかったです。
上陸時はすべて、乗船時もトイレに行けないタイミングがあるのでトイレを済まして乗船しましょう。
食べ物はNGですが、飲み物はOKですので持参した方がいいかな。
数年後にまた変わった姿が見れるとよいと思いました。

Thanks to the veteran guide's assistance, we were able to reach Jomon Sugi smoothly. On the way back, we had a memorable trekking experience with surprises, including a detour to a hidden riverside arranged by the guide.

ベテランガイドさんの案内もあって縄文杉までスムーズに辿り着けました。帰りの道中、ガイドさんの粋な計らいで秘境の川辺に寄り道したりとサプライズもあって忘れられないトレッキングを体験できました。

In mid-March, I participated with my friend and my one-year-old son. The tour staff were all very cheerful and kind, and they were considerate of my son. Although it was our first time on a boat, we felt very safe and comfortable. We encountered whales four times in total, and on two occasions, we were able to see them right in front of us as they spouted water and raised their tails before diving, which was an overwhelming and thrilling experience. It was truly a precious experience, and I was able to feel the greatness of nature. While waiting for the whales to appear, we were taught various facts about them, which was very educational. During the waiting time, we were able to relax on the boat, enjoying the vast ocean and the scenery, which provided a wonderful escape from everyday life. For those who are prone to seasickness or lack confidence, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. It would be very unfortunate if such an emotional and thrilling experience turned into a time of discomfort, so even if you think you'll be fine, it might be a good idea to take the medication as a precaution.

3月中旬に友人と1歳になる息子と参加しました。
ツアーのスタッフさんは皆様とても明るく優しく息子の事にも気を遣ってくれました。そのためはじめての船でしたがとても安心して過ごすことができました。クジラには計4回遭遇できましてそのうち2回はほんとに目の前で潮吹き尻尾上げて潜っていく姿を見ることができ感動と感激の嵐でした。本当に貴重な体験をすることができやっぱり自然の素晴らしさと言うものを感じることができました。またクジラが出てくる間などはいろいろなクジラに関する知識を教えてくださりとても勉強になりました。クジラが出てくる間の待ち時間も船の上で大海原で原理にメールしまなどを見ながらまったりと過ごすことができ非日常な時間を過ごすことができました。船酔いをされる方またちょっと自信がない方は酔い止めを飲まれることをおすすめしますせっかくの感動感激な体験が気持ち悪い時間となってしまうのはとても残念に思いますのでぜひ自分は大丈夫だと思っても保険と思って酔い止めを飲んでおいていただくけると良いんじゃないかと思います。

The charm of this tour is that you can truly feel the nature and beginnings of Okinawa at the Oishi Forest. It allows you to escape from daily life and find peace of mind. Kuta-kun, the Okinawa rail we saw in the reserve, was really cute. I want to go again.

このツアーの魅力は、大石林山で、沖縄の自然と始まりを肌で感じらる事です。日常から解放され、心の安らぎを得られます。保護区で見られたヤンバルクイナのクータくん、ほんとに可愛かったです。また行きたいです。

I was able to visit various places in a short amount of time. It was good because it was difficult to get to those places by bus. It was just right for when I only had half a day or so before my flight.

短時間で色々回れました。
バスでは行きにくいとこだったので良かったよです。
飛行機まで半日とかしかない時などにちょうど良かったです。

I went for a memorable trip as a graduation celebration! It was physically challenging, but I was able to fully enjoy the amazing nature that made all the fatigue disappear! The guide was also a very nice person, which made it even better!

卒業旅行で記念に行きました！
体力的にきつかったけれど、疲れも吹き飛ぶような自然で最高に満喫できました！
ガイドの方もとても良い方ですごくよかったです！

I received my ticket at the check-in counter, then boarded the ferry by myself, took a shuttle bus on the island, and enjoyed a long free time during the tour. Since there were other tour groups as well, I was initially a bit anxious about making it back on time (the return times varied slightly depending on the tour company). However, at key points, the staff confirmed our names and provided precise instructions tailored to each tour, allowing me to relax and enjoy the experience. Of course, I returned safely on my tour's boat.

During the water buffalo cart ride, I spent the entire time looking at the buffalo's rear, but there was a surprise at the end where we could take a photo together, which made for a great keepsake. I was also able to learn a lot about the island from the guide, and even though my stay was short, I feel like I got to know the island more deeply.

During the free time, I was able to move at my own pace, which was also very nice. This tour allows you to experience the best of both organized tours and independent travel, so I highly recommend it.

チェックインの窓口でチケットを受け取り、あとは自分でフェリーに乗り、島では送迎バスに乗り、おまけに長い自由時間もあるというツアーで、他のツアーの方々とも一緒だったので、ちゃんと戻って来られるか最初は少し不安でした。（ツアー会社により帰りの時間なども少しずつ違っていたのです。）
でも、要所要所で担当の方が、きちんと名前を確認しながらそれぞれのツアーに対応した的確な指示をしてくださり、安心して、まったり楽しむことができました。そしてもちろん、自分のツアーの船で無事に帰ってきました。
水牛車では、乗っている間中ずっと水牛のお尻ばかり見ていたのですが、最後に一緒に写真を撮ってプレゼントしていただくというサプライズがあり、良い記念になりました。また、ガイドさんに島のことについていろいろお話を伺うことができ、短い滞在でしたが、より深く島を知ることができたと思います。
また自由時間には、のんびりと自分のペースで行動でき、それもとてもよかったです。
このツアーは、ツアーの良さと個人旅行の良さの両方を味わえるので、とてもおすすめです。

Taking advantage of the opportunity after the sixth wave of COVID-19 subsided, I traveled alone to Ishigaki Island and joined this tour. With a cheerful and friendly guide and a compact group of eight participants, including myself, we explored the famous spots of Ishigaki Island. Thanks to the veteran guide's explanations, which included various anecdotes, I learned many things that I wouldn't have noticed if I had explored on my own, making Ishigaki Island feel very close to me. Perhaps because there were few participants, we gradually became friendly while enjoying the beautiful scenery together, and by the end of the bus ride, we were all laughing and joking around the guide, making it a truly enjoyable trip.

コロナの第６波が収まったチャンスにひとりで石垣島を旅行し、このツアーに参加しました。
明るく気さくなガイドさんと、私を含め８名の参加者というコンパクトな集団で、石垣島の名所を巡りました。
ベテランガイドさんの、いろいろなエピソードも含めた説明のおかげで、石垣島の、自分たちだけで回っていては気が付かないようないろいろなことを知ることができ、石垣島がとても身近に感じられるようになりました。
また参加者が少なかったせいか、一緒にきれいな景色を見ているうちに次第に親しくなり、最後のバスではガイドさんを中心に冗談と笑い声で盛り上がり、本当に楽しい旅になりました。

I was very satisfied with the quality and volume at this price! The store was clean and spacious, allowing me to enjoy my experience with peace of mind.

このお値段でこのクオリティ＆ボリュームはとても満足でした！お店もキレイで広々としており、安心して頂くことが出来ました。

In March, I took a solo trip and joined a bus tour to the Churaumi Aquarium. During this time, there were mostly young people on graduation trips, but I happened to enjoy the Okinawa tour with other elderly women from the starting point all the way to the American Village. Since it was my first time in Okinawa, the bus tour was convenient. I was amazed by the underwater fish and the clarity of the water while on the submarine at Manza Beach. I had hoped to go snorkeling, but unfortunately had to give up due to age restrictions; however, I had plenty of fun with the submersible. I thoroughly enjoyed my day at the Churaumi Aquarium. The dolphin show was also wonderful. The guide's attentive service was great, and I appreciated that they accommodated the seating for solo travelers on the bus.

3月に一人旅で美ら海水族館観光バスツアーを利用しました。この時期卒業旅行の若い方ばかりでしたが、たまたま高齢者女性同士で参加場所から最後のアメリカンビレッジまで沖縄巡りを楽しめました。初めての沖縄でしたので
観光バスツアーは手軽でした。万座ビーチのサブマリンで海の魚たちと水の透明さに驚き、本当はシュノーケリングが希望だったのですが（年齢制限のため残念ながら断念）潜水艇で十分楽しめました。美ら海水族館はとにかく一日楽しい時間を満喫出来ました。イルカショーも素晴らしかったです。ガイドさんの丁寧な対応も良かったし、一人客のためにバスの座席も対応してもらい感謝しました。

Since the previous day was a full-day tour of the Churaumi Aquarium from morning to night, I opted for a half-day tour. The Sefa Utaki was mysterious, and perhaps because it was a weekday, there were few people, allowing for a calm visit. The shows and the limestone cave at Okinawa World were fantastic! I think both families and solo travelers would be very satisfied. It was not crowded, so I could take as many photos as I wanted.

前日が朝から夜までの美ら海水族館1日ツアーだったので半日の余裕あるツアーにしました。斎場御嶽はミステリアスで、平日のためか人も少なく落ち着いて見られました。おきなわワールドのショーと鍾乳洞は素晴らしかった！家族連れでも1人でも、とても満足出来ると思います。空いていたので写真取り放題でした。

The weather was great. After visiting the Sefa Utaki, I had a little extra time, so I walked to Chinen Misaki Park nearby and enjoyed the view of the Okinawa sea and the nearby Kudaka Island. Since you can get off at the airport, there's no need to carry heavy luggage, which is convenient on the day of departure.

お天気にも恵まれ、よかったです。
斎場御獄の見学後、少し時間が余ったので、徒歩ですぐ近くの知念岬公園まで行って、沖縄の海やすぐ近くに浮かぶ久高島の風景を楽しめました。
空港下車もできるので、思い荷物を持ち歩く必要がなく、帰宅日に便利です。

I was able to choose various poses for the photos, and we got some great shots. We talked a lot about the starry sky, creating a romantic memory. I want to experience the stargazing guide next time! I'm glad I received the photos the next day as well.

写真のポーズも色々決めていただき、いい写真撮れました。星空の話も色々していただき、ロマンチックな思い出が出来ました。今度は星空ガイドを体験したいです！！写真も次の日にはいただけてよかったです。

Ontake and Gangala were both great. I think these are must-sees, but the bus guide's timing didn't match mine. I felt that they should have explained the procedures for getting off the bus and where to board more accurately.

御嶽もガンガラーも良かった。これは必見と思うが、バスのガイドさんが自分との呼吸が合わなかった。バスを降りる際の手順とか、乗り込む場所とか、もっと正確に説明してもらわないと。。。。と思った。

It was a convenient bus tour that I was able to join the day after the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The tour departed at 3:30 PM, but be careful as it can get surprisingly cold on the way back since it runs on the expressway.

都内の満開の次の日に参加出来た便利なバスツアーでした。15時半出発コースでしたが、帰りは首都高を走るので、意外と寒くなるので要注意ですね。

It was a tour that visited two places in one day, so I was worried about having enough time before going, but in reality, there was a little extra time, and since the guide provided explanations in advance, we were able to view everything efficiently. The bus ride was smooth, and I felt no anxiety while traveling on the mountain roads. We were blessed with good weather, making it a pleasant tour. The lunch was quite heavily seasoned. I think the portion was a bit small, so it wouldn't hurt to do a little snacking along the way. I was able to experience a different world surrounded by mountains with thatched-roof houses.

1日で2カ所を訪問するツアーだったので、行く前は時間の余裕があるか心配でしたが、実際は少し余裕があるくらいで、なおかつ前もってガイドさんの説明もあったので無駄なく見学できました。バスの運転もスムーズで山道も不安なく乗っていられました。天候にも恵まれ気持ちのよいツアーでした。ランチはかなり味付けが濃いめでした。量的には少なめだと思うので、少しくらい食べ歩きをしても差し支えないかと思います。周囲を山に囲まれた茅葺き屋根の別世界を味わえました。

Paddling through the mangrove-filled river on a stand-up paddleboard was a lot of fun. The weather was great, and the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees was beautiful. The gentleman took many photos for us, and every picture turned out beautifully, leaving us very satisfied. Interacting with the water buffalo named Rui on Yufujima, being able to take photos, and enjoying delicious gelato were all wonderful experiences, making for a very enjoyable day. Thank you very much!

マングローブが生い茂る川の中をsupを漕いだのがとても楽しかったです。天気がとてもよく、木漏れ日がとても綺麗でした。お兄さんに写真をたくさん撮っていただいて、どの写真も写りがきれいで大満足です。由布島で水牛のルイくんと触れ合いしたこと、写真を撮れたこと、美味しいジェラートが食べられたこと、どれもよくてとても楽しい1日でした。ありがとうございました。
