Two days ago, the mainland was in turmoil, and news of flooding in Sendai was reported the day before. Since I had to return to Tokyo on the last day of the tour, I was anxious until the morning of the tour. On the morning of the tour, Sapporo was unfortunately rainy, and I was worried about what was ahead, but I got on the bus. Once we got on the highway and arrived at our first destination, "Rokkatei" in Furano, I was relieved to see blue skies. I got some limited-edition sweets and, hoping the weather would hold, enjoyed a delicious lunch (cheese fondue and hamburger, plus Furano wine at an additional cost). Finally, we reached our long-awaited destination, the Blue Pond... The weather was still gloomy, but I was moved by the scenery I saw for the first time. I decided that I would definitely visit again on a sunny day. I hope everyone can experience this feeling too.
2日前から本土は大荒れで、前日の仙台では浸水の被害がニュースで流れていました。当日の最終日で東京に戻らなければならなかったので、ツアー当日の朝までドキドキして迎えました。当日朝、札幌は生憎の雨模様、先が心配でしたが、バスに乗り込みました。高速に乗り、最初の目的地富良野にある「六花亭」についた時は、青空が見えており、安堵しました。限定のお菓子をゲットし、このまま天気が持ってくれることを祈りつつ、美味しい昼食(チーズフォンドゥとハンバーグ そして富良野ワイン(別料金))本土を堪能。いよいよ念願の目的地青い池...お天気はやはり下り坂でどんよりとしていましたが、それでも初めて見る風景に感動しました。そして、また絶対にお天気の良い日に訪れる事を決めました。是非皆さんにもこの感動を経験して欲しいです。

Since we didn't have much time, we chose a relatively quick tour. On the glass boat, we listened to explanations about the fish and coral while enjoying the view. We rode a water buffalo and explored the main street of Taketomi Island, and finally spent a little time at the beach. If we had arranged everything individually, it would have taken much longer, but since it was all set up, the transitions from the water buffalo to the bus were smooth. It was just as I expected, and it met my goals, so I'm satisfied. If you want to fully enjoy it, I think it's better to take your time and go at your own pace.
時間もなかったので、わりとさっと回れるツアーを選びました。グラスボートでは魚やさんごの説明ききつつ、見て、水牛にのり竹富島の中心街をめぐり、最後にビーチでちょっと時間。個別に手配して回るともっと時間かかったと思いますが、セットになっていたのでベルトコンベアー式に水牛からバスなどスムーズでした。まあ思っていた通りで、目的通りなのでいいです。しっかり満喫したいなら時間をとって自分たちのペースで回ればいいと思います。

I came to Iriomote Island because I wanted to visit the island of Balas, known as the island of miracles. The sea is far more beautiful than in the photos, and Balas Island, made of coral, exceeded my expectations! Just being here is already a great satisfaction, but since I was here, I also participated in a stand-up paddleboarding experience. I was able to enjoy everything—sea, mountains, and rivers—all in one tour, including mangroves and waterfalls. The staff were kind and helpful as well.

Me and my two friends were with this trip last week. We had a wonderful experience, and discovered places we might never have encountered ourselves.
The guide was also really friendly with far above standard English, and was very enthusiastic.
The lunch we received in the bus was unfortunately not up to expectation, so for that I would rate it 4/5 stars.
The schedule was on time, and we arrived 20 minutes prior to our timetable.
In all we had a positive experience, and I would recommend people to go in this tour, since it’s not expensive in comparison to other day trips with a guide.

I participated in a course with lunch included from Osaka, visiting Fushimi Inari Taisha, Kiyomizu-dera, Kinkaku-ji, and Arashiyama. The outside temperature that day was 32°C. Since I was traveling with my elderly mother, I thought it was a good plan to efficiently tour the sights while comfortably riding on the bus.
I was surprised that at first, we were the only Japanese people on the bus... The tour guide initially explained in English and later in Japanese. Once we arrived in Kyoto, it was quite challenging to find other Japanese people; almost everyone around us was a foreign tourist. I wondered what country we had come to! There were conversations in Chinese, Korean, English, and Spanish?!
I had heard in recent news that Kyoto was becoming quite crowded, but I didn't expect it to be to this extent. It was a bit too much, and I felt it detracted from enjoying the atmosphere of Kyoto. However, I was impressed by how the bus guides were proficient in English and provided additional guides for those who didn't understand English, ensuring everyone was well taken care of. Overall, it was a fairly enjoyable trip.

The rain cleared up, and I went to Jomon Sugi under the long-awaited sunny weather. Along the way, the explanations from our guide, Yokota, were enjoyable, making the experience twice as fun. The next day, however, it rained again, and we couldn't go all the way, but we did manage to reach the Forest of Mononoke. The explanations from our guide, Shimozono, were also filled with various local information, which made it enjoyable. It was a good decision to stop early due to the rain.

On the first and second days, the guides were different people. To conclude, the guide on the second day was very good. The pacing, the way of using our legs, and the explanations about the plants and moss were all very thorough, making it easy to climb. On the other hand, the guide on the first day was also very kind and a good person, but due to the requests of a younger person in our group, we descended at a considerably fast pace, which was quite challenging for me, being older. They would wait for me, but would start walking again before I could catch up, so I couldn't rest at all and had to keep walking. I wanted to take more photos, but I had no time at all. Still, I think that without the guide, I wouldn't have known the highlights and it would have just been a "go there" experience, so I believe it was good to join the tour after all.
一日目と二日目でガイドさんが違う人でした。結論からいうと二日目のガイドさんがとてもよかったです。ペース配分、足の使い方、植物や苔の説明など非常に丁寧で、つらくなく登れました。一方、一日目のガイドさんも大変親切な方でしたし、良い方でしたが、一緒に登った若い人の要望で相当早いペースで降り、年齢的にかなり上のわたしには、ついていくのが大変でした。待ってはくれるのですが、追いつく前に歩き出すので、遅れる私はまったく休めず歩きどおしでした。もっと写真を撮りたかったのに、全然余裕がありませんでした。それでも、ガイドなしでは見どころもわからずに「行くだけ」になったと思うので、やはりツアーでよかったと思います。

Our family stayed in Osaka for 4 days and we thought that this time being the end spring/start of summer season, we are definitely going to include Kyoto as part of our Japanese adventure.
We booked the Kyoto full day tour with Veltra and was able to meet with Jun at the designated meeting point. The meeting point was conveniently situated a 10 minutes walk from where we stayed at Hilton Osaka.
Jun was very well versed in the English language and explained our itinerary and places of interest clearly. We were given sufficient time at each places of interest to explore the place and took pictures.
However, because summer was upon us, there were a lot of people at the tourist attractions. Be prepared to jostle your way at the Fushimi Inari Taisha Shinto Shrin and the Bamboo Forest.
A lot of walking and guests with mobility difficulty may find this tour a bit demanding. Also not advisable for families with young children. We were a family of 4 with 2 teenage kids and even then, all four of us were tired out by the end of the day.
But hey, it was a worth day spent in Kyoto going to all the touristy places. We even thought perhaps next time we might explore Kyoto on our own at a slower pace.
For lunch, I initially booked a vegetarian option for our family as we are muslims and was pleasantly surprised that a halal lunch option was available. The place we went for lunch had a muslim friendly restaurant and the souvenir shop even had a corner selling halal certified souveniers.
At the end of the day, our family thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Kyoto and would definitely try out other tours with Veltra should we go to Japan again.
Thank you for excellent review!
We hope your whole experience in Japan to be an unforgettable one!

Shodoshima is a beautiful place to spend a relaxing weekend. They have a great bus system and you can get 1 or 2 day passes. However, the buses are not super frequent and it is time consuming to see some great sites that are not in the main area of the Island. This is where the tour comes in. They hit the major highlights all in a day and do the driving and organizing for you! They time the tour perfectly with the arrival of the ferry. Check-in and board the bus and off you go! Start with the monkey park. You can feed the monkeys (thankfully you are protected inside a fenced area as they can get aggressive). You then have a few minutes just to wander around and take pictures. There is also a show with a monkey doing tricks. From there you go to the ropeway. There is a restaurant that uses the ticket machine, making the process very fast and easy. There is also a snack area. You can just stay there and take in the beauty of the gorge or take the ropeway down. The bus will meet you at the bottom. Perfect! You then get a quick few minutes to see a temple built into the rocks and then down to the area where some famous Japanese movie was filmed (think was called 24 eyes). No idea what the movie was about but they turned the site into a cute little shopping village. You can also try soy sauce soft serve. I skipped, but people seemed to be happy with it. Quick stop in the area they make soy sauce. Was a bit surprised we stopped at a shop and not where the museum is located. The final stop is the Olive Garden. Here you can see the olive trees (the first on the Island), do some trick photography, a little shopping, and olive ice cream. Overall,I enjoyed tour. Not too long at any site, both the driver and the guide were professional and great. My only criticism (and this is for every tour I've been on), I wish the guide didn't feel a need to talk the entire time. Let us enjoy the sites on the bus. It is ok to have silence once in while.

We were an eclectic crowd and the guide was even discreet enough to just act surprised when somebody asked her why Japanese “Fuji” water was exported to the United States and never drank by the japanese. I think she confused Fiji water with the water from Mount Fuji. Oh lord!...The guide was marvelous and discrete by saying she did not know....

I thought Shirakawa-go and Gokayama had the same scenery and feel, but I can't quite put it into words; the atmosphere was different. I liked Gokayama.
I thought the optional rice cracker grilling was unnecessary, but it turned out to be surprisingly fun.
白川郷と五箇山は、同じ風景、同じ感じと思っていましたが、うまく言葉では言えませんが雰囲気が違いました。私は五箇山が好きでした。
オプションのおせんべい焼きは、必要かと思いましたが、意外と楽しかったです。
Dear Chobi,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We also appreciate your valuable feedback.
Although both are gassho-zukuri villages, Shirakawa-go offers a grand and magnificent landscape, while Gokayama provides a charming and tranquil atmosphere. I hope you enjoyed both experiences.
Please feel free to reach out to us when you visit Kanazawa again. We look forward to seeing you.

この度は弊社のツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
また、貴重な体験談の投稿ありがとうございます。
同じ合掌集落ではありますが、
白川郷は大規模で雄大な景色
五箇山は趣があり静かな雰囲気と
2度楽しんでいただけたのではないでしょうか?
また金沢にお越しの際はお声かけください。
お待ちしております。

I participated on July 3rd. The lavender still had many buds, but Farm Tomita seemed to be the earliest in bloom. It had a wonderful fragrance.
Shikisai no Oka is spacious, so I first took the Norokko train for a round trip. With only 50 minutes to stay and a lot of people around, I recommend purchasing the Norokko train tickets as soon as you arrive and getting in line. There was only one row available for four people facing backward, but there was a photo opportunity at a scenic spot along the way, so the direction didn't matter much. The stop for photos was only 3 minutes, and those who were late were left behind.
The round trip took 15 minutes, allowing me to scout the park and later visit the places I liked at a leisurely pace.
7月3日に参加しました。
ラベンダーはまだ蕾が多かったですが、ファーム富田は一番開花が早いようでした。とてもいい香りでした。
四季彩の丘は広いので、まずノロッコ号に乗って一周しました。
50分しか滞在時間がなく、とにかく人が多いので、到着するとすぐにノロッコ号のチケットを購入し、列に並ぶことをお勧めします。1列4人乗りで後ろ向きしかあいてませんでしたが、途中景色のいい所で写真タイムの下車があったので向きはあまり関係ないと思います。下車時間は3分のみで、遅れた人はおいていかれました。
1周15分で、園内の下見をして、気に入った所にあとでゆっくり行けました。

I think this is suitable for those who want to experience Yakushima without the purpose of mountain climbing. The main highlight, "Shiratani Unsuikyo," is not included, but it's easy to get there by local bus, so you can go on your own. Therefore, if you combine the "Yakuzaru-go" with a visit to Shiratani Unsuikyo, you'll have a fairly fulfilling trip to Yakushima. It also includes transfers from major hotels and lunch, which makes it feel like a good deal.
山登り目的でなく、簡単に屋久島を体験しようと思う人に向いていると思います。主な見所では、「白谷雲水峡」が入っていないですが、ここは路線バスでも行けるので、自分で行く事も簡単です。よって「やくざる号」と自分で行く白谷雲水峡を組合せれば、結構充実した屋久島旅行になります。主だったホテルの送迎や昼食も入っているので、お得な感じもします
