All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I had a very good experience.
It is also an issue on the participants' side, but I was concerned that the participation of elderly individuals was challenging and affected the overall activities.

非常に良い体験をさせていただきました。
参加者側の問題でもありますが、高齢者の参加には無理があり全体行動に影響が出ているのが、気になりました。

Really enjoyed the guide and all her handmade maps and explanations. Useful videos as well. Great locations to view mt Fuji too. Well recommended. Bus was fairly comfortable too.

It was unfortunately rainy, but the boat didn't sway as much as I expected. I don't think I could have navigated this efficiently on my own, so I'm glad I participated in the tour! The water buffalo cart was especially great!

あいにくの雨でしたが、船は思ったより揺れませんでした。個人ではこんなにうまく効率よく廻れないと思うので、ツアーで参加者して良かったです！水牛車が特に良かったです！

I was torn between renting a car or taking a bus, but I chose the bus tour due to the cost and the convenience of not having to drive.

Since it was a tour, I was concerned about the time allocation at each location, but there was enough time to fully enjoy the sightseeing, and I was able to savor Okinawa.

I would like to use this service again.

レンタカーかバスかどちらか迷いましたが
金額と運転しなくても良いと言う便利さから
バスツアーを選択しました。

ツアーになるので、各所での時間配分が気になってましたが
観光を十分に楽しめる時間が確保されており
沖縄を堪能できました。

また使いたいと思います。

We participated as a family. We had so much fun that we didn't mind the rain at all. We want to join again next year.

親子で参加しました。雨でもまったく気にならないくらいに楽しめました。また来年も参加したいと思ってます。

A few days ago, I was worried about the rain forecast, but I was relieved that it didn't rain on the day. I took my three grandchildren with me. Even though there were empty seats, I wished we could have been seated in a more viewable area, even if it meant splitting into pairs. I was looking forward to the illumination on Midosuji Line, but I was disappointed that the city of Osaka was too bright. After the illumination, we rode the Ferris wheel at Hep Five, and the grandchildren were thrilled, feeling like they were on a field trip.

数日前から雨の予報で心配していたのですが、当日は雨も降らずホッとしました。
孫3人を連れて行きました。
空席があるのに、2人ずつ別れてでも、もっと観やすい場所にして欲しかったです。
御堂筋線のイルミネーションを楽しみにしていたのですが、大阪の街は明るすぎて残念・・・。
イルミの後、ヘップの観覧車に乗って孫達は遠足気分で喜んでいました。

It was just an ordinary landscape that I usually pass by, but since the bus slowed down, I was able to see it from a different perspective. Also, the guide's explanations were easy to understand, and there were many things I didn't know, which made me feel like a tourist even though I live in Osaka.

普段通りすぎるだけの風景でしたが、バスのスピードを落として走行してもらえたので、違った風景を見ることができました。
また、ガイドの説明も分かりやすく、知らないこともおおかったので、大阪に住んでいながら観光気分になりました。

The rain that I was worried about stopped, and I was able to fully enjoy the display of lights. I had brought a shawl, but I was also lent a blanket, which helped me keep warm, and I was very grateful for that. The illumination from the expressway loop was fantastic.

心配していた雨も上がり、光の競演を満喫することができました。カイロも持参していましたがひざ掛けも貸していただき、寒さしのぎもでき大変助かりました。高速環状線からのイルミネーションは最高でした。

We experienced engine trouble and were left waiting for an hour without any announcements. It was quite tough. I believe most of the passengers were tourists. Everyone is looking forward to their trip, so I hope for improvements.

エンジントラブルで、何の声かけもなく1時間。さすがに堪えました。乗客もほとんどが観光客だと思います。皆さん楽しみにしている旅行なので、改善を希望します。

Good lunch and nice tour guide Sojori and good driver!!!

The first time mt fuji experience was nice but the tour was a bit too rushing. Overall experience was nice. Thank you so much for the wonderful tour! Lunch was ok and the guide explained well.

The tour with a detailed explanation of the Ganagari Valley was excellent. Unfortunately, it rained, which was disappointing, but the trees and leaves wet from the rain were beautiful. Moreover, I think this price for a half-day service is wonderful.

特にガンガラーの谷が よくわかる 説明付きのツアーで大変良かったです。あいにくの雨で 残念でしたが 雨に濡れた木々や葉が綺麗でした。
しかも半日 お世話になり この価格は素晴らしいと思います。

We booked a last minute Mount Fuji tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village. Our pick up point was at the Apple Ginza store, which is very convenient to the place we stayed. The bus was very clean and comfortable and comes with free Wi-Fi access.

Our tour guide Levin was very friendly and good sense of humor and fluent in English.

We were lucky as the trip was perfect with clear sunny weather and we made our first stop at the Lake Kawaguchi. The view is awesome and fantastic. The blueberry ice-cream was so delicious.

Lunch buffet at the Ninja restaurant was pretty decent and in fact, I chose a “halal” meals just to get an experience of the service. Really well done, as they prepared a separate utensils and meals with clear “halal” signage. To my Muslim friends, they do cater for your needs.

We made another stop at the Oshino Hakkai and the view of villages are so serene (I mean if without all the tourist ). I would consider to spending one night here to enjoying the view and spend more time in this village.

Our final moment, the majestic Mount Fuji. We were made it to the 5th station, thanks to the clear sunny weather. We wished we could spend a bit longer time here. They are so many tourists, so you need to rush to capture the good spots.

The Fuji 4D simulator ride at the theme park was something special and it was a good experience. We depart and arrived Shinjuku station about 6.00pm.

Overall assessment: 10/10 ratings and I would recommend to others as well.

I thought it would be cold, but blankets and heat packs were provided, so it wasn't that cold. The night view was beautiful, and it was great. We got on the highway, and it was quite an interesting experience to drive on the highway with the roof open.

寒いかと思っていましたが、毛布やカイロが用意されていてそんなに寒くありませんでした。
夜景もきれいでしたし良かったです。
途中高速に乗りますが、屋根が開いた状態で高速に乗るのもなかなかできない体験なので、面白かったです。

It is my 3rd time in Tokyo and first time trying this tour package. Overall it is a great experience, the tour was well organized with smooth transportation, sightseeing planning, good food and a great tour guide.

Jane, our tour guide is very kind and helpful, she shared a lot of knowledge of Japan with us on the bus, helped people taking pictures, and did a great job reminding people about the time at each site. It is this kind of attention made us feel worry free and enjoyed a great day.

I was keeping an eye on the weather forecast, and sure enough, it was pouring rain from the morning. The wind was strong too. I was worried about what would happen, but the large catamaran from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island was stable with little rocking. However, I got completely soaked while switching to the cruise ship. The unique roots of the mangroves were hard to see due to the high water levels, but thanks to that, we were able to dock at a pier where we could see the massive Sakishima suou tree, which is said to be 400 to 600 years old! The glass-bottom boat tour was canceled afterward, but instead, we had a tour of Taketomi Island by ox cart, which turned out to be quite nice. The weather improved a bit in the second half, and I was able to enjoy myself.

天気予報を気にしつつ当日に至ったが、やはり朝から大雨。風も強い。どうなるのか心配だったが石垣島から西表島までは大型の双胴船で揺れも少ない。ただその後、クルーズ船に乗り換える間にずぶ濡れ。マングローブの独特の根っこは増水であまりよく見えなかったが、そのお陰で樹齢400年とも600年とも云われるサキシマスオウの大木の見られる船着場に着岸できた！その後のグラスボートは中止になったが、代わりに牛車による竹富島巡りとなりこれはこれで中々良かった。後半はお天気も少し回復し、楽しめた。

Fantastic way to see the highlights of Kyoto. Our guide Hiro was so well organized, informative and sweet. Just the right amount of time at each sight and comfortable bus ride from place to place. Would highly recommend!

I was able to see special places unique to Okinawa. The day before, I happened to visit the Okinawa Prefectural Museum, where I saw exhibits on Okinawa's unique plants, as well as displays about sacred sites and the noro (shrine maidens), which helped me understand the guide's explanations more deeply. Names of people and places in Okinawa can be quite difficult to grasp, but the bus guide explained everything slowly and clearly, and their advice on clothing was very helpful. The tour with the local guide at the Valley of Gangala was even more interesting than I had imagined, and I’m really glad I participated.

どちらも沖縄ならではの特別な場所を見ることができました。前日にたまたま沖縄県立博物館を訪れ、沖縄特有の植物、また御嶽やノロ(祝女)についての展示などを見ていたので、ガイドさんの説明がより深く理解できました。沖縄の人の名前や地名はなかなか分かりにくいものが多いのですが、バスのガイドさんがゆっくり分かりやすく説明して下さり、服装のアドバイスなど、大変助かりました。ガンガラーの谷の現地ガイドさんとのツアーも想像以上に興味深く、本当に参加して良かったです。

Unfortunately the weather was not great so we were not able to see Mt. Fuji during this trip. However, the trip was eventful overall. Our guide Shiho-san was excellent. She was attentive and friendly. We had a wonderful time.

We decided to book for the Mount Fuji tour on New Year's Eve. Needless to say it was one of the most memoriable and spectacular New Year's Eve we had. Firstly, it was very well organised. Veltra replied promptly to our emails when we asked about pick-up information etc. On the day, the tour guide picked us up on time and was very clear about bus instructions. We were well informed throughout the whole tour, about the schedule, what to do in each location, what to eat/buy, where to best take pictures etc. Schedule wise it was very punctual. The bus was comfortable and clean and the tour guide (Mario) was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We had enough time for each stop. The perfect amount of time actually, there was enough time to take photos, shop and do the essential things.
Our recommendation is to definately buy the tour with lunch included (there isn't much other options around). At the Ninja village you could either just take a longer lunch or have a shorter lunch + watch the ninja show (note this is not included in the tour and you will have to buy the ticket there). Another recommendation is try to use the bathroom before the first bus ride, because it is 1.5 to 2 hours long with no breaks in between (and the same goes to the ride back). Overall it was a very good tour. Punctual, professional and well-organised. If you only have one day to explore Mt. Fuji we would definately recommend this tour, it makes it a lot easier to hit all the major sites.

I participated in the course "Okinawa World + Masahiro Sake Brewery Tour + Hotel Transfer" departing from Naha Airport. For us, who are paper drivers, this was a very helpful course.

When we arrived at the designated spot at Naha Airport, the guide was waiting for us to confirm the number of participants before departure. There were nine participants in total, including us, and there was plenty of space on the bus.

At Masahiro Sake Brewery, we received about a 30-minute explanation about the history of awamori and had the opportunity to taste awamori and moromi vinegar.

We didn't receive tickets for Okinawa World, but we were given discount coupons. The stay at Okinawa World was about two hours; while it was a bit short for experiences, it was just the right amount of time to stroll around and see the town.

We were taken back to our hotel in Chatan, making it a great value tour.

那覇空港発「おきなわワールド＋まさひろ酒造見学+ホテル送迎」のコースに参加して来ました。ペーパードライバーの私達にとってはとてもありがたいコースでした。

那覇空港で指定場所に行くとガイドさんが待っていて人数の確認をし、出発。今回のツアー参加者は私達を含め9名。座席に余裕がありました。

まさひろ酒造は約30分、泡盛の歴史などの説明を受け、泡盛やもろみ酢の試飲ができます。

おきなわワールドのチケットをついてませんが、割引クーポンが貰えました。
おきなわワールドでの滞在時間は約２時間、体験をするには時間が短いですが、街並みを見て周るにはちょうど良い時間でした。

北谷のホテルまで送って貰え、お得なツアーでした。

I participated in the last cruise of the year. Many factories are closed for the year-end holidays, so the night view was quieter than usual, and we received a lot of service (laughs). I would like to try again in the summer if possible!

年内最後のクルーズに参加いたしました。
年末のお休みに入っている工場が多く、いつもより夜景は淋しいとの事で、たくさんサービス（笑）して頂きました♪
できれば夏にリベンジしたいです！

During my stay in Ishigaki Island, the weather was bad, so I was planning to make a reservation for Taketomi Island while checking the weather conditions.
1️⃣ I thought the weather would hold up for tomorrow, so in the afternoon of the previous day, I tried to make a web reservation through Veltra, but for some reason, I couldn't book even though there should have been availability. I had no choice but to look at a different brochure and called a travel agency, where I was informed that I needed to make a reservation by noon the day before. I admit it was my oversight, but I think there was insufficient information about the reservation conditions on the Veltra site.
2️⃣ The next day, I visited Taketomi Island in pouring rain. The bus driver's voice was too quiet, and I couldn't hear the explanations about Taketomi Island well. I would have preferred to have something like a cassette tape to listen to properly.
3️⃣ The bus driver on the way back seemed to think it was enough just to drop us off at the terminal, and in the pouring rain, we were left stranded at the terminal, unsure of which boat to take, leaving everyone confused.

However, Taketomi Island had incredibly beautiful scenery. Despite those issues, even with the heavy rain, it didn't leave a bad memory; the wonderful views outweighed everything else, so I'm glad I went. If the weather had been good, it would have been even better!

石垣島滞在中、天気が悪かったので、天気の様子を見ながら、竹富島の予約をしようと思っていました。
1️⃣明日の天気は持ちそうだからと思い、前日午後に、ベルトラのweb予約しようと思ったら、空きがあるはずなのに何故か予約できず。仕方なく、違うパンフレット見て、旅行会社に電話したところ、前日の12時までに予約しないと行けないとの事でした。自分が確認不足だったと言えばそれまでですが、ベルトラサイトからの予約条件の情報が少なかったと思う。
2️⃣その翌日に、土砂降りの雨の中、竹富島見学。バスの運転手の声が小さくて竹富島の説明がよく聞こえない。カセットテープとかでもいいから、きちんと聞きたかった。
3️⃣帰りのバスの運転手は、ただターミナルに連れてくれば良いと思っているらしく、土砂降りの中、ターミナルに置き去りにされて、どの船に乗ればいいのか、みんな迷ってた。

でも、竹富島はとても素晴らしい景色だった。そんな事があっても、大雨でも、嫌な思い出に残らず、あの、素敵な景色の方が上回るくらいなので、行けた事が良かった。天気が良ければ、もっと最高！

The main Churaumi Aquarium is a place I visit every time I come to Okinawa, and it's great. It's really great. The sight of the large whale sharks and manta rays swimming gracefully is so soothing. You can watch them forever without getting bored. My husband, who initially thought aquariums were a bit silly (sorry), stood mesmerized in front of this tank, saying, "Wow!" I highly recommend it.

At the Okashi Goten, those who had pre-ordered were scheduled for lunch, which meant we had a longer time allocated, and there were quite a few people shopping. In the afternoon, we stopped by Pineapple Park, where shopping was also possible, but it seemed like everyone was getting tired and lacked the desire to buy. Samples were provided at various locations, and everyone was able to taste different items in an orderly manner, but this seemed to push people along without stopping to shop. Perhaps because they had already bought snacks at Okashi Goten (since we had quite a bit of time), the amount of shopping everyone did was surprisingly low despite the abundance of samples. I felt it would be nice to prioritize visiting this place first sometimes.

メインの美ら海水族館は沖縄に来るたびに足を運んだ所であるが、いい。やっぱり、いい。
大きなジンベイザメやマンタが悠々と泳ぐ姿は癒されます。いつまで見ていても飽きない。
水族館なんてとちょっと馬鹿にしていた（失礼）初めての夫は“すごいねぇ”と、この水槽の前で動かなくなりました。超オススメです。
お菓子御殿では事前注文された人は昼食をとることになっていたため、時間が長く配分されており、かなりの買い物をしている人達がいた。午後にパイナップルパークに立ち寄り買い物もできましたが、みんな疲れてきていたのか購買意欲がなかったようです。各所で試食が用意されており、全員が順に列になり試食できるよう配慮されいろいろなものを味見できていたけど、逆にそのまま次に進む感じで押し流され買い物のために途中で足を止める人が少なかった。またすでにお菓子御殿で買ってしまったためか（時間が結構あったため）比較するとあれだけ試食を出しているのにかわいそうな位みんなの買い物の量が少ない。時々こちらの方を先に立ち寄りにしてあげるといいと感じました。

I was glad to be able to visit famous tourist spots on my first trip to Okinawa! Although the lunch break was short and I couldn't take my time looking at souvenirs, the cost performance was excellent above all. Thank you!

初めての沖縄旅行で、有名な観光地をまわることができてよかったです！
昼食の時間が短く、お土産をなかなかゆっくり見ることが出来ませんでしたが、何よりコスパが最高でした
ありがとうございました！

Although it was a bit disappointing to experience the water buffalo cart ride in the rain due to bad weather, I was comforted by the cute water buffalo moving at their own pace. I also enjoyed a relaxing time listening to the stories and singing of the guide.

悪天候で雨の中での水牛車体験でちょっと残念でしたが　かわいい水牛さんのマイペースで進む水牛車に癒されました。ガイドのお兄さんの話や歌声にも癒されのんびりした時間楽しめました。

スタッフは温かいバッグと毛布を提供してくれましたが、英語のガイドツアーはありませんでした。美しい光る木々を見逃してしまいました...

staff gave warm bag and blanket, but no English Guided Tour, we miss the beautiful shine trees on high way...

The bus picked us on time.The whole trip was comfortable. The Tour leader and the bus driver are very nice .We have enough time to do the sightseeing. I will do it again next time I come to Tokyo.

It's convenient to visit tourist spots while sitting, as you can hit them all in a targeted way. The stay at each location isn't very long, so it can feel a bit rushed, but...

座っていればピンポイントで観光地回れて、便利。一箇所ごとほ滞在時間はあまり長くはないので、慌ただしさはありますが、、

The tour took the navigation issue and took you to
main highlights of major attractions. The group entrance to skytree saves a lot of time and hassle. Highly recommended and good value for money. Sign up for the lunch included option. It is tasty!
