All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

The Eisa performance at Okinawa World was very powerful and provided a fun time. The limestone cave was quite large and impressive.

Also, since it had just rained, the Sefa Utaki was very slippery, and I walked down the slope quite slowly. They do lend you shoes, but I think it's important to wear shoes that are less slippery.

The guide in the car provided a lot of explanations, and I was really glad to learn things that I wouldn't have known if I had gone on my own.

おきなわワールドのエイサーはとても迫力もあり、楽しい時間でした。鍾乳洞はとても大きく見応えのあるものでした。
また斎場御嶽は雨上がりだったため、とても滑りやすく、帰りの坂はかなりゆっくり歩いてきました。くつも貸してくれますが、しっかり滑りにくい靴をはいて行くのが大切だと思います。
車中ガイドさんがたくさん説明をしてくれて、個人で行くとなかなかわからないことまで知ることができ本当に良かったと思います。

First, there was a mix-up with the meeting place, and we were made to wait longer than scheduled. I naturally thought we would tour Pineapple Park in the pineapple-shaped car shown in the pictures, but due to congestion, despite arriving earlier than planned, we ended up just walking around, which was disappointing.

We spent three hours at the aquarium, watched the dolphin show, and didn't have time to visit other botanical gardens. We saw whale sharks at the aquarium, and since it was Saturday, the souvenir shop was crowded. The bus stop at the meeting place was quite far, so in the end, we didn't have time to buy anything.

Considering the transportation costs, the admission fee is cheap, so I understand that. However, I wish they had reduced the time for lunch at the facility we stopped at (the small sandwiches were not good) and allowed us to eat our bento on the bus instead, so we could have more time at the aquarium.

まず集合場所の取違いがあり、予定時間より待たされました。
パイナップルパークは当然、看板写真にあるパイナップルの車？で巡ると思っていたら、混雑との事で、予定より早めに着いたにもかかわらず、まさかの歩いて回るだけでガッカリ。
水族園で三時間、イルカショーをみて、他の植物園などまわる時間はなく、水族園でジンベイザメなどをみて、土曜日だったこともあり最後お土産やさんも並んでて、集合場所のバス乗り場まで距離があるため、結局買う時間なかったです。
交通費を思えば入場料付きで安いので仕方ないとはいえ、途中で寄った施設でのランチ(小さなサンドイッチ不味いです)の時間を削って、バス内でお弁当を食べるなどにして、水族園の時間を増やしてほしいと思いました。

The best option for foreigners to visit Mt. Fuji as a one day trip. The trip was very well planned and organized. Our tour coordinator was very pleasant and friendly. She was very informative about the various attractions on the way as well as the planned spots. Our first destination was fifth station of Mt. Fuji. Even though clouds covered Mt. Fuji most of the time, we were able to have a pretty good look at the highest peak of Japan, thanks to our generous driver who stopped at a point( when the clouds moved away for a few moments) just below the fifth station on our way back. The next destination was lake kawaguchi where we experienced lake cruise and rope way ride. The lake is surrounded by green landscape. This will be a perfect option for any group like family, friends, couples etc.

The place where I had lunch was old, and it had a souvenir shop attached to the cafeteria, but there was a hall with a lot of butterflies, which was uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend that place. Everything else was good. It was easy to travel by bus, I could enjoy the scenery, and the prices were reasonable.

お昼を食べた場所は古く、食堂にお土産屋さんがついてる所だったのですが、そこに蝶がたくさんいる館があったのですが、気持ち悪かったです。あそこはないな～×。そこ以外は良かったです。バスで楽だし、景色も見られるし、値段もお手頃でした。

I wanted to visit not only the Shiratani Unsuikyo, which is said to be the setting for Princess Mononoke, and the moss-covered forest, but also Taiko Rock! I searched for various tours and ended up booking this one, which takes you to Taiko Rock at a reasonable price. The guide was a seasoned veteran with extensive knowledge, sharing enjoyable and thought-provoking stories about life. They also shared various snacks and garlic, which gave us a boost of energy—thank you! This tour offers an early morning option, and we chose that. There were few climbers, allowing us to take our time and enjoy taking photos on our way to Taiko Rock. The moss-covered forest was mystical, and the morning light created a fantastical atmosphere that was captivating. And then, Taiko Rock! There were steep slopes along the way, and combined with the muscle soreness from the previous day, it was tough, but reaching the top was breathtaking! According to the guide, the views are better in the early morning. Indeed, the early bird catches the worm!

もののけ姫の舞台となったと言われている白谷雲水峽、苔むす森だけでなくどうせなら太鼓岩も行きたい！といろいろなツアーを探しましたが太鼓岩まで行けてお値打ちなこのツアーを申し込みました。 ガイドさんもガイド歴が長い大ベテランさんで知識も豊富(楽しくそして人生も考える深い話でよかったです)、そしてお菓子やニンニクなどいろいろ食べ物(パワーでましたありがとうございます)も分けてくださいました。 こちらのツアー、早朝コースもあり私たちは早朝コースを選択しましたが、登山客が少なくゆっくりと写真をとりながら太鼓岩を目指すことができました。 苔むす森、神秘的で朝の光が幻想的な雰囲気をかもし出し魅力的でした。 そして、太鼓岩!道中急な坂があり前日の筋肉痛と重なり大変でしたが登りきり絶景でした！ ガイドさん曰く、早朝の方が眺めがいい確率が高いとのこと。まさに早起きは三文の徳ですね!

I want to see Jomon Sugi at least once, but since we were feeling anxious about going alone, we decided to book a tour. We had no experience in mountain climbing, and I wasn't confident in my physical strength, so I worried that I might slow down the pace for other tourists... that's why we chose this private tour.

However, this turned out to be the perfect decision! They not only considered our walking pace, but also provided enjoyable explanations, answered our questions patiently, and took many photos for us, which made for a very satisfying experience.

During the ascent, there were various highlights like the Wilson stump, and although it was challenging, we were able to enjoy walking while connecting with nature. And finally, the long-awaited Jomon Sugi... the fatigue from climbing disappeared as I was able to experience its mystique and the greatness of nature. Seeing it with my own eyes was completely different from what I had seen in photos or on TV; it was truly overwhelming and moving!

On the way back, due to my usual lack of exercise, my legs couldn't keep up, and it took longer than expected, but thanks to our guide and friends, we were able to descend safely without any injuries.

However, this Jomon Sugi tour definitely requires determination and grit (laughs). I don't think I could have made it on my own. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our guide, friends, and everyone we met along the way who encouraged us. Thank you very much!

After descending, my body was exhausted, but my heart felt very fulfilled. I definitely want to visit again!

一度は縄文杉をみてみたい、けれど私たちだけでは不安だったのでツアーを申し込むことにしました。 登山は全くの未経験、体力に自信がなく他の観光客の方々と一緒だと歩くペースが遅くご迷惑になるのでは…と思いこちらのプライベートツアーにしました。
しかし、これが大正解でした！ 歩くペースを配慮してくださったのはもちろんのこと、楽しい解説や私たちの質問に丁寧に答えて頂いたり写真をたくさんとってくださるなど、大満足の対応をして頂きました。
往路の道中、ウィルソン株などさまざまなみどころがあり自然にふれあいながら大変ではありましたが楽しく歩くことができました。 そして、ついに念願の縄文杉…登りの疲れはどこへやら、とても神秘的でかつ自然の偉大さに触れることができました。写真やらテレビでみるのとは全く違い、自分の目でみるものはただ圧倒され感動するものでした！
復路は、普段の運動不足により足がついていかず時間がかかってしまいましたがガイドさんや友人のおかげで怪我もなく無事下山することができました。
しかし、この縄文杉ツアーはまさしく気合と根性が必要ですね(笑) 自分一人では到底たどりつくってことができなかったと思います。
ガイドさんや友人、道中すれ違った際に励ましてくださった方々この場をお借りしてお礼申し上げます。ありがとうこざいました!
下山後身体はボロボロですが、心はとても充実したものとなりました。また是非訪れてたいです！

We participated with my 5-year-old and 3-year-old daughters, along with their grandparents, making it a three-generation experience. Perhaps because we had small children, we were allowed to be in a group just for our family. They were incredibly kind and accommodating, never showing any displeasure even when the kids were noisy or fussy, and they adjusted the pace to suit us. We all had a wonderful time together!

SUP was enjoyable, as we could stand and sit even with the kids! During snorkeling, I couldn't swim, but they pulled me along on a rescue board, which made me feel safe. I was so happy to see baby turtles! I would love to participate again when I come back to the Yaeyama Islands!

5歳・3歳の娘と、祖父・祖母と、3世代で参加させていただきました。
小さい子供がいたからか、家族だけで1グループとしていただき、子供が騒いだり、グズっていても嫌な顔１つもせず、進むスピードも合わせて下さり、とても親切丁寧に対応してくださいました。
家族みんなでとっても楽しい時間を過ごせました！
SUPは子供連れでも立ったり座ったり、楽しかったです！
シュノーケリングでは、泳げない私のためにレスキューボードでずっと引っ張ってくれたので、安心できました。カメの子供に会えて、とっても嬉しかったです！
また八重山諸島へ来たときは、参加したいです！

I was a bit anxious since it was my first experience with SUP, but the instruction was very kind and thorough, and I had a lot of fun. I did fall a little (quite dramatically), but the waterfall was great too.

SUPは、初めての経験で不安だったけれども、とても親切に丁寧に教えていただいて、とても楽しかったです。ちょっと落ちたけれども(豪快に)
滝も良かったです。

I had a great time with my grandchild on the SUP! I couldn't stand up, but I was able to kneel (^^).

SUPで孫を前に乗せて、楽しくできました！
立つことはできなかったけれども、膝立ちはできました(^^)

I was able to see beautiful coral reefs that I had only seen on TV while snorkeling! Luckily, I also got to see a sea turtle, which made for the best memories.

シュノーケリングでは、テレビでしか見たことがないような綺麗なサンゴ礁が見れました！
運良くウミガメも見ることができ、最高の思い出になりました。

The experience overall was amazing starting with the bus journey to Fuji which was comfy and air conditioned with a friendly driver. Our tour leader was extremely informative, happy and spoke great English. The 5th station was cloudy but it was a lovely area to walk around and the views were still incredible. The boat journey on Lake kawaguchi was stunning and peaceful. What made the whole trip was when we went up the ropeway the cloudy had moved and we could see Mount Fuji clearly. A lovely touch at the end was a voucher for ice cream. I would recommend this trip to everyone who want to see Mount Fuji or just wants a trip outside busy Tokyo.

I booked a round-trip ticket plus a water buffalo cart plan. It's more economical than purchasing them separately! After riding the water buffalo cart, there was free time, and the return time was just right.

往復乗車券＋水牛車のプランを申し込みました。別々に購入するよりお得です！
水牛車に乗った後は自由時間があり、帰りの時間もちょうど良かったです。

It was amazing experience to visit Mt. Fuji
Tour guide and driver are really kind.
Food was amazing, never had Hoto noodles before, it wasMiso type flavored soup.
Souvenir shop was interesting I bought rock sweets

This time, I went canoeing and to Baras Island in the morning, and explored a cave in the afternoon. The guide introduced us to many best spots and took a lot of photos for us! By the way, the food (vegetable soba) next to the office was surprisingly delicious, so definitely try it. Haha!

今回は午前中にカヌー&バラス島、午後に鍾乳洞探索に行ってきました。
ガイドの方にたくさんベストスポットを紹介頂き、写真もたくさん取って頂きました！！
ちなみに事務所の隣のご飯(野菜そば)が、地味に美味しかったので、ぜひ。笑

We were just lucky with the weather and were able to enjoy all the tours! The guide provided various topics to discuss, making the tour enjoyable. We also took a lot of photos, creating great memories.

ギリギリ天気に恵まれすべてのツアーを楽しむことができました！
ガイドさんもいろんな話題を提供してくれツアー中楽しめました。写真もいっぱい撮ってくれていい思い出ができました。

My wife and I had an awesome time with this tour. Its a beautiful day in September which I thought it would be raining but it ended up that we see a glimpse of Mt fuji, sunny and warm though clouds covers this mystical mountain most of the time. Better for you to bring jacket in 5th station as it gets very chilly, walk through the side of the building where there are benches good for photoshoots, away from most of the tourist. We head down for noodle soup afterwards, perfect timing to ease my cold body. We also had fun in grape picking as it was our first time, truly memorable. Berry grape was really sweet and jelly in texture, we had constant reminder to pick only what we can eat. There are lot of shops for souvenir which was great! Our Japanese English tour guide was very informative and helpful. I recommend this tour package If you want to have well organize and a quick escape from tokyo.

I had a very meaningful time experiencing things I had never done before in one day, such as visiting a limestone cave, Balas Island, canoeing in the mangroves, and trekking! It was so much fun! Thank you very much.

鍾乳洞、バラス島、マングローブでのカヌー、トレッキングと今まで体験したことなかったことを1日で体験でき非常に有意義な時間を過ごせました！とても楽しかったです！ありがとうございました。

It was so dark that I was anxious about whether I could reach the shooting location, but it turned into such an amazing memory that it blew all that worry away! Even someone like me, an amateur, couldn't capture such beautiful shots; it really made me realize how different professionals are.

They will send you the shooting data via LINE or email. They also shared recommended spots and hidden gems in Miyako Island, which was very helpful for travelers!

暗すぎて撮影場所までたどり着けるかヒヤヒヤしましたが、そんなの吹き飛ばしてしまうくらい最高な思い出になりました！私のような素人が撮ってもあんな綺麗に写らないもんなぁ、やっぱプロはちがうなぁって実感。

撮影データはLINEかメールで受け渡してくれます。宮古島のオススメスポットや穴場スポットを教えてくれて旅行者にとってはとてもありがたかったです！

The guide was very polite and it was really great! The coral from Balas Island is a memorable souvenir! It was a day of complete satisfaction!

ガイドさんも丁寧ですごくよかったです！
バラス島のサンゴは思い出のおみやげです！大満足の一日でした！

The bus tour from Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go was wonderful, thanks to the excellent service from our guide K and driver M from the organizing company, White Ring. The bus parking and dining location were right in the main street of Shirakawa-go, so there was no time loss for exploring. The information about various sightseeing spots and souvenirs made our exploration time even more fulfilling. I definitely want to participate in the autumn foliage and winter illumination if I get the chance.

金沢発の白川郷バスツアーですが、開催会社ホワイトリングのガイドＫさん＆ドライバーＭさんの対応がすばらしく、思い出になる旅行となりました。
白川郷メイン通り内にバス駐車＆食事場所でしたので散策にタイムロスがないです。
散策スポットやいろいろなお土産情報が、散策時間をより充実させてくれました。
ぜひ　秋の紅葉や冬のライトアップに機会あったら参加したいです。

The trip was excellent along with the guide and the lunch we had, well done

I participated with my elementary school child. It was a very nice and hot day, but the view from the open deck was great. (A hat and jacket are essential.) Since it can be difficult to move around with children, I'm glad we participated!

小学生の子どもとふたりで参加しました。
とても天気が良く暑い日でしたが、オープンデッキからの眺めがよかったです。(帽子や上着は必須です)
子ども連れだといろいろまわることが出来ないので、参加してよかったです！

We participated as a family of four (two adults, a 3-year-old, and an 8-month-old). Due to weather conditions, we changed our schedule to one day earlier at the last minute, but they handled everything, including transportation to the hotel, very well.

It was our first time exploring the remote islands, and we truly enjoyed the mangroves of Iriomote Island, the water buffalo on Yubu Island, and the sightseeing spots on Taketomi Island while cycling.

Our 3-year-old especially loved the water buffalo on Yubu Island, enjoying the experience of holding the reins, feeding them, and touching them (for a fee of 500 yen). Additionally, even though it was a full day plan starting early in the morning, our 8-month-old managed just fine.

If given the opportunity, I would love to use this service with my family again.

家族4人（夫婦＋3歳＋0歳8ヶ月）で参加しました。
天候の関係で直前に1日前倒しの日程に変更してもらいましたが、ホテルまでの送迎も含めてしっかりと対応をいただきました。

はじめての離島巡りでしたが、西表島のマングローブや由布島の水牛、竹富島のレンタサイクルでの観光スポット巡りなど本当に楽しめました。

特に3歳の子供は由布島での水牛が気に入ったらしく、水牛の手綱を引いたり、餌をあげたり、タッチをしたりするふれあい体験が楽しかったそうです。（有料500円）
また、朝早くからの1日がかりのプランでしたが、0歳8ヶ月の子供も問題なく乗り切れました
♩

機会があればまた家族で利用したいと思います。

I was able to visit popular spots like the Churaumi Aquarium in just one day, and I was very satisfied. My top recommendation is the bus guide. Not only does she provide information about the tourist attractions, but she also shares various stories about Okinawa's past and present. She is great at storytelling and singing, and her pleasant demeanor made it the best memory of my trip.

美ら海水族館などの人気のスポットを、1日でまわることが出来て、大満足です。
一番のおススメは、バスガイドさんです。観光地の案内だけでなく、沖縄の今、昔のいろいろなお話をしてくれます。お話も歌も上手で感じも良くて、旅の一番の思い出になりました。

In the Valley of Gangala, you walk through nature and hear explanations about how ancient locals lived in that area. It was a very interesting story, and I had a great time spending half a day there.

ガンガラーの谷は自然の中を歩いて大昔の現地の人が、その場所で生活していた状況などの説明を聞きます。とても興味深い話で楽しく半日過ごせました。

This time, I participated in a solo trip. It had been since my school trip that I visited Kyoto. For someone like me who has no sense of direction, I was able to efficiently visit the main tourist spots and truly enjoyed it. The sightseeing bus was completely different in terms of comfort and views compared to public transportation—it was fantastic! It seems that even with tourist traffic, we were prioritized and could move smoothly. The guide was a young girl, but she was very considerate of everyone and showed a great personality, working hard. This was also very soothing.

今回、一人旅で参加しました。
修学旅行以来の京都。土地勘の全く無い私にとって京都の主要観光地を、効率よく廻れてとても満喫出来ました。公共の乗り物より観光バスは、乗り心地と眺めが全然違いサイコーでした！観光地渋滞も、優先されてスムーズに行けるようです。
ガイドさんも、若い女の子でしたが、みんなに気配りが出来ていて、一生懸命に頑張っている、とても良いお人柄がにじみ出ていました。これも、癒されました。

The weather was great, and I was able to fully enjoy my first trekking experience! I definitely want to visit Yakushima again! One thing I particularly appreciated about this tour was that they provided direct transportation from the accommodation to the trailhead without any transfers. On the way there, I was able to conserve my energy, and on the way back, I could relax comfortably!

お天気もよく初めてのトレッキングを満喫する事ができました！また、ぜひ屋久島を訪れたいと思います！
このツアーにして良かったと特に思った点は、宿の近くから登山口まで乗り換えなしで送迎してくれた点です。行きは体力を温存する事が出来、帰りはゆっくり休む事が出来ました！

I have participated in this tour several times, and I think it’s very worthwhile because it’s efficient and inexpensive. Since Sefa Utaki is on a mountain path, I recommend wearing comfortable shoes instead of sandals. Women especially need to be careful, as it can be quite difficult if it rains. At the Valley of Gangala, the guide provided detailed explanations, and it was really fun. Although it rained like a typhoon, the rain made the trees and leaves vibrant and beautiful. Since Okinawa has sudden rain showers, I think it’s better to prepare for the possibility of rain. I want to go again.

こちらのツアーには何度か参加していますが、効率も良く安いので大変お得だと思います。斎場御嶽は山道なので、サンダル等ではなく歩きやすい靴で行くのが良いと思います。特に女性は気をつけないと雨が降ったら大変です。ガンガラーの谷はガイドさんが詳しく説明してくれて、すごく楽しかったです。台風みたいな雨だったのですが、雨のおかげで木や葉っぱが生き生きしてきれいでした。沖縄はスコールがあるので、雨が降るかもしれないと準備して行ったほうが良いと思います。また行きたいです。

The weather on the day was bad, and it started to drizzle while we were on the boat, but we were able to land safely. It was very good.

当日の天気がわるく途中船上で小雨降ってきましたが、
無事に上陸できました。
非常によかったです。

It was very good! When I signed up, it mentioned that lunch would be a udon set meal, so I was expecting that, but it turned out to be tofu dishes. The restaurant was spacious, and I was able to enjoy my meal slowly and comfortably, so I'm glad I opted for the lunch option. However, I'm not a big fan of tofu, and the dishes served were mostly tofu, which became a bit monotonous (；▽；). But I was able to enjoy a meal that was characteristic of Kyoto, and this also became a memorable experience. Thank you very much! (^^)

とても良かったです！
申し込む際に、昼食はうどん定食と記載があったのでそのつもりだったが実際は豆腐料理だった。お店は広くてゆっくり、ゆったりと食事ができたので昼食付きにしておいてよかったと思った。しかし豆腐がそんなに好きではないし、出された料理が豆腐ばかりで飽きてしまった(；▽；)でも京都らしい食事が出来、これも思い出になりました。ありがとうございました(^^)
