All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I often visit Okinawa, but I had never been to the northernmost point before. This time, I was able to enjoy the scenery slowly while taking the bus. It was great to visit tourist spots like Cape Hedo, Daichi Forest, and the Churaumi Aquarium.

沖縄にはよく来ていますが、最北端までは行ったことがありませんでした。
今回バスで、ゆっくりと景色を見ながら楽しむ事が出来ました。
辺戸岬・大石林山・美ら海水族館と観光スポットを回ることができたのも良かったです。

The guide sings Okinawan songs in the car, and they are very good and pleasant to the ears. I was able to spend a relaxing time. The driver is also very nice.
At the Valley of Gangala, the guide's explanations are easy to understand. It comes with well-chilled sanpin tea.

ガイドさんが車内で沖縄の歌を歌ってくれます。それがとても上手で耳に心地よいです。癒しの時間を過ごせました。運転手さんも感じがよいです。
ガンガラーの谷はガイドさんの説明がわかりやすい。よく冷えたさんぴん茶付きです。

Nice ride around Okinawa
Loved being able to see a lot without having to drive around with three small children.
They loved the aquarium and I appreciated the lunch and small gifts that came with trip.
Would definitely recommend this to others.

Okinawa World felt like Meiji Mura in Inuyama, Aichi Prefecture, where I could sense history. The Super Eisa performance was impressive, and it was so much fun to dance together at the end!

Gyokusendo Cave was incredibly beautiful, and I promised to join the cave exploration in the southern islands next time. At Masahiro Shuzo, the explanation of how awamori is made was easy to understand, and even though I couldn't drink it, it looked delicious, so I ended up buying a small bottle. When I see awamori, I think I will look for the Masahiro brand. I wished I had a bit more time at Okinawa World. I had a very enjoyable time. Thank you!

おきなわワールドは愛知県犬山の明治村のような感じで歴史を感じました。スーパーエイサーは見応えがあり、最後はみんなで踊ってとても楽しかったです〜
玉泉洞は最高に綺麗で次は南の島の洞くつ探検に参加しようと約束しました。
まさひろ酒造さんで泡盛ができるまでの説明わかりやすく飲めないのに美味しそうで、小瓶を買ってしまいました。泡盛を見ると　まさひろ　の銘柄を探しそうです。おきなわワールドは、もう少し時間が欲しかったです。とても楽しい時間をすごせました。ありがとうございました。

I had a full day of fun. It's definitely easier than arranging everything on your own. I can confidently say that it's worth paying for this tour! I highly recommend it!

１日たっぷり遊べました。個人で手配するより断然楽。これだったらお金を払ってもよい！と断言できるツアーでした。おすすめですよ！

I participated alone, but I had a great time. The guide showed us spots where no one else was around, and I was able to take photos in a really beautiful location!

一人で参加したのですが、楽しく参加できました。
ガイドさんが誰もいないスポットを教えて下さり、とっても綺麗な場所で撮影出来ました！

We had a great time on our tour. Lenny provided very insightful information with quite a bit of humor mixed in. The spots were all very interesting and unique and the whole experience exceeded my expectations. Well worth the time and price.

I participated with my uncle and aunt, and it became a wonderful memory. I recommended it to my friends! I would like to participate again.

おじさんおばさんで参加しましたが、とてもいい思い出になりました^_^
友人達にもお勧めしました！
また参加したいと思います。

I had a very efficient and enjoyable sightseeing experience in Ishigaki Island and Kabira Bay in just half a day. The female bus guide was very entertaining, making it a fun bus tour. There were eight of us participating, and it was all very enjoyable without any issues.

半日で石垣島及び川平湾の体験ができてとても効率的で楽しい観光が出来ました。バスのガイド(女性)さんがとても面白く楽しいバスツアーでした。
8名での参加でしたが問題なくとても楽しく良かったです。

It was really great to be able to move smoothly while avoiding crowds during the holiday. I was able to rest while traveling by bus, so I could enjoy sightseeing at each landmark without getting tired.

連休中の参加だったので、人混みを避けてスムーズに移動出来たのが本当に良かったです。バスで移動中に休めたので、各名所で疲れずに観光出来ました。

It was convenient to take the train from Kyoto Station to Fushimi Inari Shrine since I wanted to experience riding the train. The tour guide was also kind and friendly, which made me very satisfied. I would like to join another tour if the opportunity arises.

京都駅から伏見稲荷神社までは、電車移動でしたが、電車にも乗ってみたかったので、好都合できた。
添乗員さんも、親切なおかつ気さくな方で大満足です。
また機会があれば別のツアーにも参加してみたいです。

I was worried that it might be a cheap and rough tour, but the guide was very accommodating, and I had a great time. I am very satisfied.

値段が安く雑なツアーかなと不安に思っていましたがガイドの方も対応が良くとても楽しめ非常に満足しています。

I learned quite a bit about many of the destinations in Tokyo. I felt like this was a good taste of the city. The stops were very short but adequate. The guide did a great job of describing history and ritual. I did the half day tour. I didn’t know I would have to transfer buses after I was picked up but they guides were helpful.

Due to limited time We booked this tour the day before. Due to the Booking time already closed on the website we had to co-ordinate our booking through VELTRA facebook messenger. The team were very fast to rely & with great communication we were able to secure 3 seats on the Tour.
The meeting location across from Kyoto Station was very easy to find & we waited for our Tour Guide. Jorge Introduced himself & lead us onto the bus for a very full day of sight seeing.
At Each Cultural sight we were given a full educational history & cultural commentary by Jorge & then our own time to explore, if time permitted a little shopping. My daughters & I always seemed to be rushing for the bus as so much to see & do at each location. Even though Jorge is not a native from Japan his knowledge & insight is fantastic. We found Jorge to be funny, calm & professional.
Our Tour was on Saturday & a public holiday in Japan, so some locations such
as the Bamboo Forrest & 1001 Tori gates were busy. Due to the crowds & a few mishaps during the day, & through no fault of our Tour guides, we ran behind
time. WE made our last stop The Golden Pavilion 10 mins before closing & as the sun was going down. Luckily I was able to get a few photos & walk around the Temple before the gates were closed. Our supplied lunch at the Bamboo Forest location was very unique & tasty.
I Recommend NOT DOING the TOUR on the weekend or Public Holiday if
possible. I would use Veltra Tours again & 100% highly recommend Jorge as a Tour Guide. Its a very full busy day & was very glad to be able to rest on the bus between locations.

Thanks to the veteran guide, I was able to reach Jomon Sugi with peace of mind!! Thank you very much＾＾

ベテランのガイドさんによるガイドで、安心して縄文杉までたどり着けました！！
ありがとうございました＾＾

I wanted to visit the Churaumi Aquarium, so I joined this bus tour. I think it's a great deal as it also takes you to famous tourist spots in Okinawa. The veteran guide's explanations were thorough and easy to understand, making it pleasant to listen to. Personally, I found the bridge to Kouri Island and the view of the sea from underneath the bridge to be beautiful. The timing felt just right. However, the Churaumi Aquarium was crowded, and if you wait for the crowds to thin out, you might run out of time, so I recommend moving quickly through the exhibits. You can see the key attractions, and the large tank with the whale sharks is breathtaking; you could watch it forever. The dolphin show was also heartwarming. It was a very satisfying tour.

美ら海水族館に行きたくてこのバスツアーに参加しました。水族館の他にも沖縄の有名な観光地をまわれて、大変お得なツアーだと思います。
ベテランガイドさんのお話も説明も丁寧で分かりやすく、聞いていて心地よかったです。
個人的には古宇利島の橋や橋の下から見る海がキレイでとてもよかったです。時間配分は丁度良く感じました。
ただ美ら海水族館は混雑していて、人だかりを空くのを待って見ていると時間が足りなくなるのでサクサク見ることをオススメします。
要所は見ることができ、巨大水槽やジンベイザメは圧巻でいつまでも見ていられます。イルカショーも見ていてほっこりしました。
大満足のツアーでした。

It was a so so trip. Nothing much on foliage. Keikyu Train trip was useless.
Kasuki dam trip had nothing.
Only thing that was worth were Ashikaga flower park illumination.
Shimmeigu shrine was okay. Mizunuma onsen has very very little foliage.

Even though announcements are being made, I can't hear them at all, so I end up missing the points of interest in the illumination.

It's not that the voices of the passengers are particularly loud; it's just that the external noise from the open bus is the issue. I would appreciate it if you could consider placing multiple speakers or other improvements.

Since many of the passengers are tourists, we need guidance to understand the points of interest. If we keep missing them, it feels like we’re finishing without really understanding anything, which is a shame.

せっかくアナウンスをしているのに、全然聞こえないのでイルミネーションのポイントを見逃してしまいます。

特に乗客の声が騒がしい訳ではないので、オープンバスゆえの外部の騒音のせいですが、スピーカーを複数配置するなどの工夫をして頂きたいてす。

乗客は観光客が多いのでガイドして貰わないとポイントが分かりません。見逃してばかりではよく分からないうちに終わってしまって勿体ないです。

During my first visit to Hokkaido, I was worried since it was the season when snow started to fall, but I was able to fully enjoy the great nature and hot springs! Although it was snowing, it stopped at Lake Toya, allowing me to enjoy the distant scenery! Above all, it was definitely the right choice to soak in the hot springs! I had never seen a shampoo bar before, and the hot springs felt so good that I wanted to stay in them longer. Next time I go to Hokkaido, I want to see the lavender fields in Furano during early summer! I'll be counting on Beltora again!

初めての北海道で雪が降り出した季節と言うこともあり心配してましたが、大自然と温泉を満喫出来ました！
雪が降ってたましたが、洞爺湖では止んでて遠くの景色を楽しむことが出来ました！
何よりも温泉入って正解でした！
シャンプーバーなど見たことがなく、温泉も気持ちよく、もっと温泉入りたくなりました。
次に北海道行くときは初夏に富良野ラベンダー畑が見たいです！
またベルトラさんにお願いしますね！

It felt a bit hectic, taking almost a whole day, but it was great to have bus transportation since moving around individually would have been difficult. The guide's attentiveness was excellent both in the first half and the second half. The price also seemed reasonable. If I have the chance, I would like to use this service again.

I thought it was mentioned that the bus had mobile charging available?

ほぼ一日がかりで慌ただしい感もありましたが
個人で移動すると大変なのが、バス移動で
良かったです。　前半も後半もガイドさんの
気配り大変良かったです。
料金も安く思えました。　機会があれば又利用させていただきたいと思います。

バスに携帯の充電ができると書かれていたと
思いましたが?

I'm glad I chose the bus tour. I think I would have gotten wet from the rain if I had gone out on my own. The sightseeing was disappointing due to the bad weather, but the guide was talented and great at chatting, so I didn't get bored.

It can be tough to look for a restaurant after coming back tired, so I was glad I reserved a steak dinner. As soon as we entered the restaurant, our meal began, and we had enough time afterward to shop on Kokusai Street.

バスツアーにして良かったです。自分で出かけたら雨で濡れてしまっていたと思います。観光は悪天候で残念でしたが、ガイドさんが芸達者でおしゃべり上手で退屈しませんでした。
疲れて帰った後でレストラン探すのは大変なので、ステーキディナーを予約して良かったです。お店に入ってすぐにお食事が始まり、終わった後で国際通りで買い物ができるほど時間的な余裕がありました。

I experienced trekking in Shiratani Unsuikyo during my first visit to Yakushima, and thanks to the guide accompanying us, we were able to hike at a comfortable pace. The guide also provided explanations about the highlights at each point, which made the trekking even more enjoyable.

初めての屋久島観光で白谷雲水峡トレッキングを体験しましたが、ガイド同行のおかげで余裕あるペースで登山できました。またガイドさんから各ポイントで見所について説明があり、よりトレッキングを楽しめました。

It was a great tour since I wanted to visit both Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. The free time was just right. The staff were friendly, but the guide talked the whole time, so I wished there had been a little time to soak in the atmosphere or quietly enjoy the view from the car. Also, since I participated alone, I wanted to have lunch with the others instead of sitting at a table by myself, which made me feel a bit lonely. Everyone else seemed to be enjoying themselves sitting next to each other. Overall, I was satisfied with the tour.

白川郷と五箇山どちらも行きたかったので、とてもいいツアーでした。
自由時間もちょうどよかったです。
スタッフさんの方々もフレンドリーでよかったですが、ガイドさんがずっとお話しされていたので、少しは、余韻に浸ったり、ゆっくり車内で静かに車窓をみたりする時間が欲しかったです。また、一人参加だったのですが、一人だからこそ食事（昼食）は、他のみなさんと並んで食べたかったです。ひとりのテーブルで、一人参加を強調されたようで、さみしかったです。他のみなさんは隣同志ならんでいて楽しそうでした。
ツアーには満足です。

The guide's explanation at Kiyomizu-dera was very easy to understand and kind. It became a great memory. Thank you very much.

清水寺でのガイドさんの説明が大変わかりやすく
親切でした。いい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。

A terrific way to see Mt Fuji and many of the sites associated with it

I think it's a great way to spend a day if you are visiting Tokyo - well worth it

Following last year, I accompanied my family to participate in the Naha Marathon and arrived in Naha, where I joined a bus tour with my son on Sunday. When I received the message confirming the meeting time, I was delighted to find out that it was the same guide as last year. This year, thanks to the guide who entertained us with songs and dances without a dull moment during the trip, and the polite driver who drove safely, we were able to spend a fun and meaningful day with peace of mind, and my family was very satisfied. Thank you very much.

昨年に続き、那覇マラソン参加の家族に同行して那覇入りし、日曜日に息子とバスツアーに参加しました。
集合時間確認の連絡を頂いた時、昨年と同じガイドさんだと分かり、嬉しくなりました。
今年も道中 退屈する間も無く 歌や踊りを披露して 参加者をリードして下さったガイドさんと、安全運転で礼儀正しいドライバーさんのお陰で、安心しながら楽しく 有意義な一日を過ごすことが出来、家族も大満足でした。
ありがとうございました。

I participated in the last day of the event at Universal ^ ^ I was worried it might be cold since it was an open bus without a roof, but they lent me a blanket and even gave me a heat pack ^ ^ I live in Kyushu and am used to the illuminations at Huis Ten Bosch, so I felt the illuminations here were a bit lacking, but considering the price, I thought it was sufficient. I'm glad I took part ^ ^

ユニバーサルへ行く残日に参加しました^ ^ 屋根なしオープンバスなので寒いかな、と心配しましたが、膝掛けを貸して頂き、カイロまで頂きました^ ^
九州に住んでおりハウステンボスのイルミネーションを見慣れており、イルミネーションは少し寂しく感じましたが、お値段にしたら十分かなと思いました
利用させて頂き良かったです^ ^

I participated in the autumn foliage season in mid-November. It was incredibly crowded everywhere. I thought I would only be able to visit one place if I went on my own. I'm glad I joined this tour, which allowed us to comfortably and efficiently visit the main attractions by bus. The tour guide also provided various explanations during the journey, which was educational.
Only the visit to Fushimi Inari involved taking a train from Kyoto Station. The tour guide and one family panicked when boarding the train. When traveling in a group using public transportation, let's remember to stay calm.

11月半ばの紅葉シーズンに参加しました。とにかくどこも大混雑。自力で行ったら一箇所しか回れないだろうなと思いました。バスで快適に、効率よく目玉スポットを回れるこのツアーに参加してよかったです。添乗員さんも移動中に色々と説明をしてくれたので勉強になりました。
伏見稲荷だけ京都駅から電車移動だった。添乗員さんと一家族が電車に乗る際に大パニックしてました。集団行動で公共交通機関に乗るときは落ち着いて行動しましょう

I was looking forward to the half-day Ishigaki sightseeing tour, and thanks to our guide, Mr. Hashizume, and the driver, I had a great time. I was unsure about the glass-bottom boat in the rainy Kabira Bay, but Mr. Hashizume assured me that it probably wasn't murky and that we would be able to see underwater! Since we had come all this way, I decided to go for it, and it was definitely the right choice. The underwater scenery was beautiful, and I even got to see a sea turtle, which made me very satisfied.

Thank you very much! I would love to come back to Ishigaki Island for a revenge trip and experience the four islands tour that I had to cancel this time.

楽しみにしていた半日石垣観光でしたが、ガイドの橋爪さんや運転手さんのおかげで十分楽しめました。雨の川平湾グラスボードもどうしようか迷いましたが、橋爪さんが多分濁ってないので海の中は見れますよ❗️と言ってくださったので折角来たのだからと乗りましたが大正解でした。海の中はきれいでウミガメまで見れて大満足でした。
本当に有難うございました。又リベンジで石垣島に来て今回キャンセルした４島回りも体験したいと思います。

I was anxious that this might be my last year to take on the challenge due to my age, but the weather was clear, the guide was attentive, and the people in the group I went with were kind. It was great that I could walk all the way to Jomon Sugi without any issues. It was also fantastic to see Mount Miyanoura along the way. The hotel had delicious food, and I enjoyed the local dishes.

年齢から言って挑戦するのは今年が最後かなと不安でしたが、天気は快晴、ガイドさんも丁寧、一緒に行ったグループの人たちも親切、縄文杉まで、無事歩き続けられたのは良かったです。途中宮之浦岳も見られたのも最高でした。ホテルも料理がとても美味しく、地の物を楽しみました。
