奈良定期観光バス|東大寺+春日大社+興福寺 世界遺産の三社寺を巡る半日バスツアー<約3時間/JR奈良駅・近鉄奈良駅発>

The tour itself is great! ツアー自体は良いです!

Reviewed by: れおママ

The travel time is short, but it seems like there are some inconsistencies with the bus guide. While I was taking photos, the guide stood in front of the camera and talked to other guests. During the visit to Todai-ji, they said, "Please play with the deer," but at Kasuga-taisha, they warned, "Don't touch the deer!" They mentioned, "People from Nara don't touch the deer because they are dirty," and I thought it would have been better if they had explained that from the beginning. My child touched the deer a lot at Todai-ji. At Kasuga-taisha, my child was scolded and asked why it was okay to touch the deer at Todai-ji but not at Kasuga-taisha.

The explanations were fast-paced and lacked sincerity. When I asked about the type of wood used for the pillars at Todai-ji, the guide responded emotionally with "Huh?" After I politely explained why I wanted to know the type of wood, they answered, but it left me feeling quite uncomfortable throughout the tour.

The scheduled end time was around 12:30, but we actually finished at 11:30. I can't help but think that this guide must have skipped over various explanations.

移動時間はかからないけれど、バスガイドさんの当たり外れがありそうです。
写真を撮っていたら、カメラの前に立ち他のお客さんに話しかけてるし、東大寺見学の時には「シカと遊んでください」と言っていたのに、春日大社では「シカには触らないで!」と。。「奈良県の人はシカは汚ないので触りません。」とか言ってきて、東大寺の時に初めからそう説明すれば良いのに、子供は東大寺でシカにたくさん触ってました。。春日大社では子供は怒られてなんで東大寺のシカは触って良くて春日大社ではダメなの?と言ってました。。
説明は早口で心がこもっていなく、東大寺の柱の木の種類を尋ねたら、「は?」と感情的に聞き返されたので、こちらが丁寧にどうして木の種類を知りたいのか説明したら答えてましたが、余りにも気分が悪くて終始嫌な気分でした。
解散時間は12:30頃とありますが、11:30には解散でした。こんなガイドさんは色々説明も端折られていたのではと思ってしまいます。。

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Mt Fuji Tour

Reviewed by: Soo

Wonderful tour guide, Hiroko, who did everything to see to the needs of the participants. She gave very interesting and informative accounts about Japanese culture and history. She spoke good English. Lunch spread was good and the bus ride was safe and comfortable. The itinerary was also well-planned. The pick up and meeting smoothly done because of Hiroko. Only minus point was that a photo of the pick up point included in the website would have made it easier for participants to know where to wait. A sign posted at the pick up point will also be helpful. Would highly recommend the tour

Mt Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi Cruise and Ropeway Ride

Memorable Day Trip

Reviewed by: MQK

The trip was well-organised and Hiro, our tour coordinator was very friendly and polite. The fifth station was closed due to snowy conditions so we were brought to a village instead where we could still see Mount Fuji. We wished we had the chance to taste the spring water there but we were lagging behind everyone because we had kids with us and needed more time getting around. The tour covered sufficient places which gave us many opportunities to view Mount Fuji. We had lunch in a lovely restaurant with a full view of the mountain. The food was ok. The area around restaurant was really cute and it would be good if we could have additional time there. I understand though as that it was not the focus of the tour. Most of the time was allocated for the ropeway up to view the mountain and the lake cruise which was a very wise decision. We totally ourselves there. Overall, the tour felt rushed especially so if you have kids with you but understandable due to time constraints.

御堂筋イルミネーションバス 光の饗宴を満喫 OSAKA SKY VISTA オープンデッキバス 事前予約(2025/11/1~12/31)<大阪駅発着>

I enjoyed a different way of playing in Osaka than usual. 普段とは違う大阪の遊び方を楽しめました

Reviewed by: いちごみるく

After work, I took the two-story rooftop bus departing from Osaka Station at 19:20 along Midosuji to Namba. It was my first time seeing the illuminations from above while even riding on the highway. My colleagues, who often hang out in Osaka, really enjoyed it too. I thought the seats were unreserved, but it was nice to have assigned seating. I initially thought 45 minutes might be short, but it turned out to be just right; any longer would have been a bit too cold. I was impressed that there were hand warmers and blankets provided at the seats. The Japanese guide's commentary was very good, but since it was a rooftop bus, it was a little hard to hear at times. It was a great value, and I felt like a tourist, which was very refreshing. I would love to participate in another bus tour.

仕事帰り大阪駅19:20発の2階建てのルーフトップバスで御堂筋を難波まで、そのあとなんと高速道路にものって、上からイルミネーションを見るなんて初めてでした。普段から大阪でよく遊ぶ同僚もとっても楽しんでいました。席は自由席と思っていましたがちゃんと指定されていてよかったです。時間も45分では短いかなと思ったけど、あれ以上だとちょっと寒すぎてちょうど良かったです。座席にはカイロやひざ掛けが用意されていて感激しました。日本語ガイドさんのお話しもとても良かったですがルーフトップなのでちょっとだけ声が聞き取りにくかったです。コスパもいいし観光客気分でとっても新鮮でした。また別のバスツアーにも参加したいです。

世界文化遺産「斎場御獄」+選べる4コースおきなわワールド or ガンガラーの谷 or 新原ビーチ 半日観光バスツアー<那覇発・那覇空港お送り可/3歳以下無料>

I was able to enjoy sightseeing efficiently and happily! 効率よく楽しく観光できました!

Reviewed by: Y.T

I participated in a bus tour of Okinawa World and Shurijo Castle in the southern part of Okinawa. We visited Shurijo Castle early in the morning when there were fewer people. It was wonderful to stroll through the natural scenery surrounded by tropical forests in the fresh air. The walking path is made of stone pavement, and it can be slippery when the weather is clear. While you can borrow shoes, I think it's better to wear non-slip, comfortable shoes.

Okinawa World’s Gyokusendo Cave is said to be one of the largest limestone caves in Japan. It was very impressive, mysterious, surprisingly spacious, and beautiful. When I purchased my ticket for Okinawa World, I received a coupon, which allowed me to buy souvenirs at a great price, so I felt lucky.

On the bus, the guide explained things about Okinawa that I didn't know, which I really appreciated. Also, before we arrived at Naha Airport, the guide sang Okinawan folk songs, which was moving and made for a wonderful conclusion to the trip. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Water Buffalo Mabuyah! 水牛マブヤー君ありがとう!

Reviewed by: レオン

The price for the water buffalo cart and ferry is surprising! It takes about 10 minutes by bus from the Taketomi Island ferry terminal to reach the center. After that, we enjoyed a ride on the water buffalo cart while listening to the guide's stories and the sounds of the sanshin and singing. I could really feel the guide's love for Taketomi Island, which was nice.

At the end, I was able to take photos of the water buffalo up close, which was very soothing. Everyone was delighted and said they were cute. After that, we had free time and could choose a ferry at 4 PM or 5 PM.

It rained, but it cleared up quickly, and I enjoyed strolling around, seeing the island's plants, vibrant flowers, and butterflies. At Kaiji Beach, I felt liberated from everyday life and was enchanted by the cobalt blue sea. I definitely want to stay next time! Thank you very much!

水牛車とフェリーでこの価格は驚き‼️
竹富島フェリー乗り場からバスで約10分で中心地へ到着。その後水牛車に乗ってガイドさんの話や三線と歌を楽しむ。ガイドさんの竹富島愛が所々に感じ良かったです
最後に水牛の写真もとても近くで撮らせて貰い癒されました。皆、可愛いと大喜びでした。
その後は自由行動で16時か17時のフェリーを選び自由行動。
雨が降ったがすぐ晴れて島の植物、鮮やかな花、蝶を見て散策し、カイジ浜では日常から解放されコバルトブルーの海の色に酔いしれました。次回は是非とも宿泊したいです!
本当に有難うございました。

Mt. Fuji Tour from Shinjuku with Shiraito Falls, Oshino Hakkai & Sengen Shrine

Totally worthwhile!

Reviewed by: Mari

When my daughter and I decided to visit Japan, I knew that Mt. Fuji was a must see. Upon arrival, we asked for recommendations from our hotel as to which tour was reputable and reliable. They didn't recommend a specific company but did give me brochures to look through. I got distracted and forgot the brochures and I never went back to ask again. I just decided to find one myself and luckily landed on this one while perusing in Trip Advisor. I believe Ann was the name of our guide. She has a heavy accent so I had to pay extra attention to comprehend what she was saying. Barring that, she was informative, enthusiastic, helpful, kind and considerate. She gave us plenty of snack and restroom breaks throughout the day which gave everyone the opportunity to checkout the goodies at every stop we made. You can't go wrong with this tour. Having a perfectly clear day was an added bonus. The only reason this is rated 'good' is because at a couple stops, I felt we didn't get enough time to explore. As an FYI, Ann said due to regulations she can't accept tips. So if you plan to tip, you can tip the driver.

Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Asakusa or Ginza

Pleasant experience!

Reviewed by: Eliza

The reason we chose this company was due to its pick up point. The planning by the tour company was efficient. The tour representative met us at our hotel, Asakusa View Hotel, punctually. We set off on time. However, due to unfavourable weather, we could only reach Station 1 with zero visibility of Mount Fuji. Our guide, Ms Mayumi, was very friendly and shared with us lots of valuable information and history. We opted for no lunch but given a table at the restaurant. Really appreciate that! Ms Mayumi managed to arrange for us to view Mt Fuji on the way to Hakone. We managed to take some pictures of Mt Fuji. The cruise at Lake Ashi was breathtaking. The Ropeway was fine except for the weather.
We took the coach back to Tokyo. The drop off point was at Ginza. Ms Mayumi entertained us with lots of hands on during the journey. She demonstrated wearing kimono and making origami. When we reached Tokyo, Ms Mayumi went the extra mile to explain the places we passed by. Really wonderful of her. She showed us Ginza Station so we could make our way back to the hotel.
I would recommend this tour as the company representatives are very professional.

世界文化遺産「斎場御獄」+選べる4コースおきなわワールド or ガンガラーの谷 or 新原ビーチ 半日観光バスツアー<那覇発・那覇空港お送り可/3歳以下無料>

It is greatly affected by the weather. 天候に大きく左右される

Reviewed by: Yoppy

I visited two places: "Saijō-ō-take" and "Ganggala Valley."

Saijō-ō-take has poor footing, with many stairs and slopes, and unfortunately, it was pouring rain during my visit. A raincoat and non-slip shoes are essential. I was barely able to walk, and it was far from an enjoyable experience of this ancient sacred site. Given the weather, there's nothing that can be done about it.

At Ganggala Valley, the rain had lightened up, the footing wasn't extremely bad, and we had a dedicated guide for this location, which allowed us to fully enjoy Okinawa's nature. The bus guide shared various knowledge about Okinawa, including the Okinawan dialect, making for an engaging explanation. I got off at Naha Airport early in the afternoon and headed straight home. It was a good schedule for making effective use of time.

「斎場御嶽」「ガンガラーの谷」2か所を回りました。
斎場御嶽は足場が悪く、階段や坂道も多いのですが、訪れた時間帯はなんと大雨。レインコートと滑りにくい靴は必須です。自分は歩くのが精いっぱいで、いにしえの聖地を堪能するには程遠い体験となってしまいました。天気のことなので、こればかりは致し方ありません。
ガンガラーの谷は雨が小降りになったことと、足場が極端に悪いわけではないこと、さらにはこの場所専属のガイドさんがついていることで、沖縄の自然を十分楽しむことができました。
バスのガイドさんは沖縄方言をはじめ、さまざまな沖縄に関する知識を披露してくれ、聞きごたえのある説明でした。午後早い時間に那覇空港で下車、そのまま帰途に就きました。時間を有効に活用するにはよいスケジュールでした。

Sufficient and necessary content. 必要にして十分な内容

Reviewed by: Yoppy

I used this service for a trip with my 75-year-old mother. Initially, we only planned to visit the Churaumi Aquarium, but due to my mother's requests—she mentioned that a friend said Pineapple Park was great and that she wanted to see the long bridge—we looked for a course that combined these attractions and decided on this one.

The bus was shared, and it seemed that there were more customers from English-speaking and Chinese-speaking countries than Japanese. The guide provided only the necessary minimum explanations, but we were able to get the required information from the recorded audio guides in various languages, so there were no particular issues.

If you’re on the same course, renting a car would give you more freedom with your time, but if driving is difficult, I think this option is better.

75歳の母との二人旅で利用しました。
当初は美ら海水族館だけ行く予定でしたが「友人がパイナップルパークがよかったと言っている」「長い橋も見てみたい」との母の要望で、これらが一つにまとまったコースはないかと探した結果、これに決めました。
バスは混載で、見たところ日本人より英語圏や中国語圏のお客さんのほうが多いように思われました。ガイドさんは必要最低限の説明でしたが、録音された各国語の音声ガイドで必要な情報は得られ、特に問題はなかったです。
同じコースならレンタカーで回るほうが時間が自由になりますが、運転が大変などといった場合は、こちらのほうがよいと思いました。

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Excellent tour, guide, accommodations. Will book again.

Reviewed by: David Lindgren

From the moment the tour started at the love statue in Shinjuku, the service and staff was top notch and very organized.

The bus itself was very clean and comfortable seating. Plenty of leg room for myself at 6’3” which made the ride up to Mt Fuji easy.

The tour guide was the best I have ever had the pleasure to experience. Hope fully you also get Levin as your guide. Incredible sense of humor, knowledge, and perfect English. Learned so much during the tour.

We were lucky enough to see Mt Fuji on one of the clearest days of the year and all the stops provided excellent view points.

The buffet at Ninja village was top notch and was surprised how good it was for a day tour. I especially enjoyed the Japanese curry and rice.

We were also able to reach stage 5 of the mountain which is as high as the vehicles can go. The view from here was breathtaking. Next time I come to Japan I will be sure to book again with this company if they also offer climbing/ hiking tours.

On the decent from stage 5, we were able to be provided the boat cruise on one of the 5 lakes of mt Fuji. Once again, highly organized and great views of the Mountain. Probably over 100 pictures taken over the tour.


I give the company 10/10 and will recommend to others.

Kyoto Tour to Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizudera, Kinkakuji & Sanjusangendo

Effective and efficient tour of Kyoto in 1 day!

Reviewed by: Rachel

I would recommend this tour if you are looking for an efficient and effective use of time to cover all the main attractions of Kyoto in 1 day. The attractions covered were all the must see attractions so there was no time wasted at visiting attractions that were less popular. Time spent at each location is also about right - not too long and not too short. It didn’t feel very rush and we still had time to grab some but and walk around on our own a little. The bus was also comfortable and we manage to catch a nap between the attractions that were further apart. The explanations provided by the guide could be abit more detailed (as we are history lovers), but the information provided is definitely enough if you are looking for just an overview and the gists. Overall, it was definitely a day and money well spent given that we managed to cover all the attractions we wanted to see in Kyoto in one day. It was our first time in Kyoto, so this tour really helped to save us a lot of time and trouble of having to figure our way out via public transport. We wouldn’t have been able to cover all the attractions without this tour. The guided tour also helped us enjoy each attraction efficiently such that we do not have to loiter around aimlessly.

札幌発 支笏湖&洞爺湖 日帰りバスツアー 有珠山ロープウェイも乗車<昼食付きプランあり/1名から催行/札幌駅前発着>

Winter in Hokkaido 冬の北海道

Reviewed by: 屋久島大好き

A day trip from Sapporo with lunch included is a convenient distance. Moreover, it would be impossible to visit this many tourist spots using public transportation on your own, so it was a very worthwhile course.

札幌発で日帰りツアーとしては手軽な距離で昼食付。尚且つ自分で公共交通機関で行くとこれだけの観光地を廻るのは無理なので、とてもお得感の有るコースでした。

Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Asakusa or Ginza

Great Trip

Reviewed by: Dan

Easy trip to see Mount Fuji. Weather was terrible on the day but the guide (Mayumi)made some smart decisions so we could at least see it from a view point later in the day. Food was good and all in all a good day.

美ら海水族館観光バスツアー 琉球村+星野リゾート バンタカフェ+万座毛+御菓子御殿をめぐる1日観光 夕食付きプランもあり<入場券付き/那覇発/2歳以下無料

What a lovely day! 素敵な一日♪

Reviewed by: nimo

In front of Nippon Rent-A-Car, there are many tour buses and local buses arriving and departing. A bus with a white base and the company name in cerulean blue stopped at the back, and the guide helped with the check-in. Having three staff members, including the driver and guide, on board provides a sense of security. The tour seal featuring a whale shark is adorable.

There was a toilet break on the way to Kouri Island, which was reassuring. The return time was clearly displayed on the board, making it easy to understand. On Kouri Island, we played at the water's edge, and at the Churaumi Aquarium, we had lunch at the café in front of the whale shark tank. It felt like we were swimming together, and we could sit in front of the tank for 30 minutes on a rotation basis (check-in at the counter). We also got to see a Christmas limited dolphin show. The view from the side of the sea turtle pool was breathtaking!

The sea from the Okashi Goten (Candy Castle) was also very beautiful. The snacks are sold individually, making it easy to buy. At Manzamo, the guide chatted with us while showing us around, which made it enjoyable.

At Ryukyu Village, we got to see a show and took photos with a 99-year-old grandmother. I was surprised by the strength of her handshake! I felt a divine power from her! The guide was kind, talented, and very cute! They sang songs and sign language songs, changed costumes to dance, and we all danced together.

Even though it must have been a long and tiring day, they always responded with a smile. As the day came to an end, I felt very sad. The guide's message brought me to tears. Thanks to the guide, I created wonderful memories of Okinawa. Thank you!

ニッポンレンタカーの前はツアーバスや路線バスがたくさん発着します。後ろのほうに白ベースに青でセルリアンブルーと会社名が入ったバスが止まり、ガイドさんが受付してくれました。運転手さん、ガイドさん、男性社員さん3人が同乗されるのも安心感があります。ツアーシールはジンベエザメでかわいいです。
古宇利島までの間、トイレ休憩があり安心です。戻り時間はボードでも表示してくれて分かりやすいです。古宇利島では波打ち際で遊んで、美ら海水族館では、ジンベエザメの水槽前カフェでランチ。一緒に泳いでいるみたいで水槽前は30分入れ替え制で座れます。(カウンターで受付)クリスマス限定のイルカショーも見れました。ウミガメプール横からの景色は絶景!
お菓子御殿からの海もとっても綺麗。
お菓子もバラ売りしてるので気軽に買えます。
万座毛はガイドさんが一緒におしゃべりしながら回って下さり楽しく回れました。
琉球村では、ショーもみれて、99歳のおばあちゃんと写真撮影。握手した手の力強さにびっくり!神々しいパワーをもらいました!!
ガイドさんは優しくて、多才で、とってもcute!歌や手話歌を歌ってくれたり、衣装チェンジして踊ってくれたり、みんなで踊ったり、
一日長くて大変だと思うのに、いつも笑顔で対応して下さいました。一日一緒にいると終わりに近づくにつれとても寂しくなりました。
ガイドさんのメッセージには涙
ガイドさんのおかげで素敵な沖縄の思い出が出来ました。ありがとうございます。

I participated on the last day. We departed near the terminal and it was fun to sightsee at Kabira Bay. It truly was the scenery I saw in photos. On the way back, I was dropped off at the airport and headed home. It was a fulfilling tour that made very effective use of my time.

最後の日に参加しました。ターミナル近くから出発し、川平湾でも観光できて楽しかったです。
ほんと写真でみた光景でした。
帰りは、空港で下ろしていただき、帰路へ。。
時間をとても有効に使えて充実したツアーでした。

On the day, we couldn't see the starry sky, but the night safari was fun. We drove on dark roads and got to see birds that you can't see in the city, as well as coconut crabs by the seaside, creating wonderful memories. Thank you very much.

Kyoto Tour to Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizudera, Kinkakuji & Sanjusangendo

Good experience

Reviewed by: UHG

Very good experience overall. Professional bus driver who drove safely and kept to the strict timelines. Our guide Joon was very friendly and witty. Well done!
I would suggest that the lunch option should include seafood or halal options. After a full day of walking settling for pure vegetarian food was a bit of a let down. Otherwise, I strongly recommend this tour to visitors who have limited time in Kyoto. It takes you to all the major sites and provides you with a good orientation of the city.

Unfortunately, the open bus had its roof closed due to the rain, but I was able to see the city's illuminations well from the high windows of the bus, which was great. Next time, I will try again on a sunny day!
