All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

This half day tour included a number of key sights in Tokyo. We were fortunate to have booked (purely by chance) on the first day of the new Era following the inauguration of the new Emperor. The guide was clear and helpful and we gained much from this tour.

Since it was my first time in Nara, I used a sightseeing bus. I was amazed by the size of Hōryū-ji. There were many highlights within the temple grounds, and I walked so much that my feet got tired, visiting various places including the Bodai-ji. The guide also provided detailed explanations, which was very good.

奈良は、初めてなので、観光バスを利用しました。法隆寺の大きさに驚きました。境内の中に見どころが沢山有り、菩提寺までいろんな処を廻り、足が疲れるほど歩きました。ガイドさんも、詳しく説明していただき、大変良かったです。

I was glad to be able to smoothly visit the tourist spots despite the crowds during Golden Week. The pickup for the participants was also very accurate. The bus guide's introduction to Okinawa was excellent. The steak dinner at night was very delicious. There are various courses available, but I recommend the one that includes dinner!

GWで混雑している中でスムーズに観光地を回れて良かったです。旅行参加者のピックアップも的確でした。バスガイドさんの沖縄の紹介も最高に良かったです。夜のステーキディナーも大変美味しかったです。色んなコースがありますが、ディナー付きのコースがおススメです！

I recommend this for a short sightseeing trip on the morning of your departure day. The best part is that you can leave your luggage on the bus and explore hands-free. They also take you to the airport, and you can choose your course in advance.

However, it was a bit of a downside that I had to find the bus for pickup at the meeting point by myself. Even though it was a short sightseeing trip, I was glad to visit Okinawa's famous spots in a short amount of time.

帰る日の午前中のショート観光におススメです。おススメなところは、旅行の荷物をバスに預けて手ぶらで回れるところ。空港まで送ってくれるところ。コースが事前に選べる所ですかね。
ただ、集合場所でピックアップされるバスを自分で探さなければならなかったのがちょっとマイナスかな。ショート観光でしたが沖縄の名所を短時間で回れて良かったです。

A friend came to visit Osaka after a long time, so we stayed in the north and chose the southern route! It was great because we were able to explore efficiently, and despite the traffic, we ended up having a lot of fun. We also got off at Harukas along the way, and my friend was really happy about it.

友人が久しぶりに大阪に遊びに来てくれたので、北に宿泊したので南コースを選択！効率よく周れたのと、道が混んでたので、逆にたくさん楽しめて良かったです。途中ハルカスで下車も出来、友人もよろこんでくれました。

そのときの状況でうまく対応していました。ありがとうございました。また機会があれば利用したいです。

そのときのじょうきょうでうまくたいおうしていました。ありがとうのざおました。またきかあがあればりようしたいです。

We participated in a tour to Jomon Sugi on April 27 and Taiko Rock on April 28 as a couple aged 61 and 58. We have experience in trekking and climbing, but this time, due to the long distance of 22 km round trip and our desire to hear various stories, we booked a private guide for the first day. However, there was not much explanation along the way, and when I fell and injured myself at a stream, the guide only mentioned that they had disinfectant but did not provide any treatment on the spot. We continued walking for another 20 minutes and finally arrived at the next rest area, where we had to take care of the wound ourselves. The guide had 26 years of experience, but I wished for a bit more consideration.

61歳と58歳の夫婦で4/27縄文杉+4/28太鼓岩までのツアーに参加しました。トレッキングや登山は夫婦で何度も経験がありますが、今回は往復22kmと長丁場なのと色々な話を聞きたくて初日のみプライベートガイドを申し込みました。しかし道中大した説明もなく、また私が沢場で転んで怪我をした際にも「消毒薬を持ってる」と言ったきりその場で処置する事もなく更に20分歩き続け、漸く次の休憩場所に着いたところで自分達で傷の手当てをしました。
経験26年の熟練ガイドさんでしたが、もう少し気遣いが欲しかったです。

The Dream high-speed boat was splendid, spacious, and stable.
The guide was impressive in helping us get star sand.
The water buffalo was cute! The sanshin was nice.
It felt like a time slip on the island.

ドリーム 高速船立派ゆったり安定

島内タイムスリップのよう

The guide was fresh and sometimes a bit nervous, but at times very solid... It was an easy-to-understand and enjoyable experience filled with history and legends that will remain in my memory.

ガイドさんが初々しくて 時にカミカミ 時にしっかりと…歴史や言い伝えが解りやすく楽しくて記憶に残る体験でした。

The path to the meeting place was dark and a bit unsettling, but once I arrived and looked up at the sky, I was thrilled to see so many stars. During the waiting time, we chatted about various things, and I had a great time taking photos. The pictures turned out beautifully, and I was very satisfied; it became a wonderful memory.

集合場所までの道のりが真っ暗で不安でしたが、到着して空を見上げると星がたくさん見れてワクワクでした。待ち時間の間も色々お話して下さったり、楽しく撮影してもらえました。写真もとても綺麗で大満足で、良い思い出になりました。

★良かった点
・ツアー内容はとても良かったです。アクティビティが多かったので絶え間なく楽しめました。
・ツアーガイドさんは英語と日本語両方喋ることができるのでとても安心でした。
・バスが目立つ黄色だったので迷わず見つけることができました。
・外国人のお客さんが多く一緒にツアーを回ることができて、英語の面でもいい勉強になりました

★残念だったところ
・天気が雨だったので少しも富士山が見えませんでした。富士山をメインで楽しみに参加しましたが、何も見えなかったのでただ観光してるだけのツアーに感じました。同じお金を払ってみるのであれば天気がいい日だったら良かったです！

The bus tour was shorter than I expected. Considering the price, renting a bicycle might be better than taking the bus. However, since the roads are narrow, I thought that younger children might not be able to avoid the bus when it comes. On the water buffalo cart, I ended up sitting at the back, so I could hardly see the buffalo and the guide's voice didn't reach me well, which diminished the experience.

バス観光が思ったより短時間でした。
料金を考えると、バスでわざわざ周るよりもレンタルサイクルの方が良いかも知れません。
ただ、道が狭いのでバスが来た時など、小学校低学年くらいまでの子は上手く避けられないかも？と思いました。
水牛車は、後ろの方に乗ってしまったので牛は殆ど見えずガイドさんの声もあまり届かないので、雰囲気が半減しました。

It was cold on the day of the tour, and there was a bit of wind, but the content of the tour was outstanding! Of course, I got to see the places I wanted, but the guide's explanations were surprisingly interesting and well done, which made the atmosphere on the bus lively. There were also useful trivia points throughout, making the bus drive feel like it went by in no time.

当日は寒くて少し風もありましたが、ツアーの内容は満点以上でした(^^)
見たかった場所は勿論ですが、ガイドのお姉さんの説明も想像以上に面白く上手でバス内も盛り上がりました。為になる雑学も要所要所にあり、あっという間のバスドライブでした。

For this price, a round trip to Taketomi Island, a glass-bottom boat, and a water buffalo cart is quite a bargain. Considering that it would cost about double this amount without a reservation, I think it's a good tour.

この金額で、竹富島の往復、グラスボード、水牛車と使えるのはかなりお得です
予約なしなら、これの倍ぐらい掛かることを考えると、良いツアーだと思います

A starry sky like I've never seen before, with the sound of waves while taking photos. It was so much fun. The guide and the photographer were very attentive, and it became a wonderful memory.

今までに見た事の無い、空一面の星空。波の音を聞きながらの写真撮影。とても楽しかったです。ガイドさんやカメラさんも丁寧な対応をして頂き、とても良い思い出になりました。

I love nature tours. The first cave in the Gyokusendo Valley had an astonishing landscape. The guide's explanations were also fascinating, and the enthusiasm of the guides and staff was strongly conveyed. The large banyan tree was incredibly mystical.

If I had to say something, I would have liked an explanation from the bus guide about "Seifa Utaki." (I was pretending not to listen while hearing the explanations from the bus guide of another tour up to a certain point. The level of interest is completely different when there is an explanation compared to when there isn't.)

However, it was a great value tour, so I give it a perfect score.

自然系ツアー、大好きです。
ガンガラーの谷、最初の洞窟が驚愕の景観でした。ガイドさんの解説も興味深く、またガイドさん方運営スタッフの熱意も強く伝わってきました。大きなガジュマルの木もすごく神秘的でした。

欲を言えば「斎場御嶽(せーふぁうたき)」について、バスガイドさんによる解説が欲しかったです。（他のツアーのバスガイドさんの解説を、聞いてないふりをしながら途中まで聞いてました。やはり解説があるのとないのとでは、全然興味の沸き度合いが違いますものね。）

でも、お値打ち価格のツアーでしたので、評価点は満点で。

I had always wanted to see Jomon Sugi. Thanks to our veteran guide, Mr. Sueno, we were able to enjoy a safe and fun trip. He provided detailed and enjoyable explanations, and he also considered our pacing, allowing us to return full of energy. The rental gear was a bit worn, but it was great that they made sure to fit the shoes beforehand. It was also helpful that the bus went directly to the trailhead. I truly felt that choosing this plan was the right decision.

ずっと行きたかった縄文杉。ベテランガイドの末野さんのお陰で楽しく安全に行くことができました。色々な説明も詳しく楽しくまたペース配分も考えてくれて最後まで元気に戻ることができました。レンタルの品は、少々年気が入ってはいましたが、靴のサイズ合わせを事前にしてくれるなどきちっとしてくれてよかったです。
バスが登山口まで直行で行けるのも助かりました。このプランを頼んで良かったと心から思いました。

Since it was my first trekking experience to Jomon Sugi, I hired a guide. It took about 10 hours round trip, and thanks to the guide, I had a great time (even though I felt my physical limits, haha). They recommended lunch spots and shared information about Yakushima, plants, and climbing experiences abroad. The miso soup was delicious too!

初縄文杉トレッキングだったので、ガイドさんを頼みました。往復10時間、ガイドさんのおかげで(体力の限界を感じましたが笑)大変楽しかったです。おススメのランチや屋久島の事、植物や海外での登山のお話などなど。お味噌汁も美味しかったです！！

I rode a glass-bottom boat and a water buffalo on Taketomi Island! The sky was so blue and the sea was a beautiful turquoise, creating wonderful memories! Thank you very much!

竹富島でグラスボードと水牛に乗りました！
とても、空は青く海も碧くて素敵な思い出になりました！
本当にありがとうございました！

We had a lovely afternoon in Nara... the Buddist temple was amazing, one of my highlights while being in Japan... the Shinto temple was also well worth visiting, and the deers in the park made it a fun day... our guide Hajime san gave us an amazing insight into the Japanese culture and some fun videos on the bus... he is a credit to the company - arigato Hajime san

Good views of Mount Fuji.
Perhaps it would be better to have more time in the village to explore.

I participated at the end of April. The boat was rocking due to strong winds, and some people were feeling unwell. The guide's explanations were excellent, and I enjoyed it.

4月末に参加。船は風が強くて気分を悪くされてる方がいました。ガイドさんの説明がお上手ですで楽しねました。

We had a free day in Tokyo so decided to book this tour on line before we arrived as was highly recommended by a friend! We weren’t disappointed! Didn’t do a pickup from the hotel we were staying at so we had to jump on the subway to get to the pickup, was easy! Then we were transported to yet another hotel by taxi! Our tour guide Yoshi was brilliant! He covered so much in the full day tour, loved every minute of it! We booked the tour which included the Japanese lunch which was a delicious! Saw all the highlights of Tokyo, even included a boat ride down the river! At the end of the tour the bus dropped us off at the subway as we decided to go to Shibuya before returning to our hotel! Don’t miss this tour!

This was my first trip to Okinawa in 10 years, and my first solo travel experience! I was excited yet a bit anxious about what the day would be like, but the wonderful guide eased my worries! They shared so much about Okinawa, which was very educational, and they entertained us with songs and Eisa dance, making the bus rides incredibly enjoyable! There were many places to visit, so the time spent at each location was short, and I found myself wishing I could stay longer. However, I was able to explore places that would have been difficult to navigate alone, and I got to see the beautiful scenery and ocean of Okinawa. It was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish! Thank you so much!!!

今回10年ぶりの沖縄旅行でした。そして初ひとり旅！どんな1日になるかワクワクでもあり、不安もありましたが、ステキなガイドさん！不安は吹き飛びました！沖縄について沢山話してくださり勉強になったし、唄やエイサーで盛り上げてくださったり、バスの移動時間がとても楽しかったです！回る場所が沢山だったので、１つ１つの場所の滞在時間が短く、もっといたいな、と思ってしまいましたが、1人では回るのが大変な場所を安心して回る事ができ、沖縄のステキな景色、海を見る事ができて、最初から最後までとてもステキな時間でした！本当にありがとうございました！！！

We were lucky to reach Mt Fuji 5th station, as the sun was shining on this beautiful volcano! Wish we had more time to enjoy its serene majestic beauty! Would love to climb this mountain some day!

Our tour was fun and enjoyable. We were given ample time to roam around and explore the area. We brought our son with us and he loves the cable car and strawberry picking experience. My wife's highlight was the beautiful flowers almost in full bloom. Mine was the overall convenience and comfort of being in an organized tour. Special thanks to Yuki our sweet guide and Kondo our bus driver for being patient waiting for us. Will highly recommend this tour to friends.

The drive going to Mt. Fuji was smooth. Our tour guide, Amy was excellent and helpful. Too bad we didn't see it at the base or during the boat ride. However, we saw it during the bus ride at least and we're happy.

The three must see places were wonderful. My family enjoyed the tour and our guides were excellent!

I participated from Hokkaido. Most of the participants were foreigners, but the guide, Mr. Yoshikawa, provided clear explanations and it was a lot of fun. The weather forecast predicted rain, but we didn't need to use umbrellas and were able to enjoy the wonderful scenery. I definitely want to request another tour next time.

北海道から参加させていただきました。殆どが外国人でしたが添乗員の吉川さんの説明はわかりやすく大変楽しかったです。
天気予報は雨でしたが傘をさす必要もなく素晴らしい景色を堪能出来ました。
是非次回も他のツアーをお願いしたいです。

This is a good tour to see the highlights of Kyoto. The driver and tour guide Jun is extremely competent. My only complaint is that the tour feels rushed at each sites. However due to the number of tourists at each locations and in order to cover all the highlights, it is unavoidable to feel rushed.
