All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

The water buffalo tour was relaxing and enjoyable. The song from the man upon arrival added to the fun. The buffalo were very smart too. You can also take pictures with the buffalo on the island.
The mangrove tour progresses slowly along the river. It's soothing as you see the mangroves and birds.

水牛ツアーは、のんびりゆっくり楽しかった。到着時のおじさんの歌も盛り上げてくれました。牛もとてもお利口でした。島では、水牛と写真も撮れます。
マングローブツアーは、ゆっくり川を進みます。マングローブや鳥などを見ながら癒されます。

It was great to be able to sightsee in Osaka city on an open bus, even though it was a bit hot in the limited time of one hour.

１時間と限られた時間で、少し暑かったですが、大阪市内を開放的なオープンバスで観光できて良かったです。

I saw mangrove seeds for the first time! I learned about the decomposition cycle of fallen leaves that changes with low and high tides, and I also encountered shy crabs that appear at low tide. It was a fun canoe experience even for beginners. Thank you, Team Kantsu!

マングローブの種をはじめて見ました！干潮と満潮で変わる枯れ葉の分解サイクルを知り、干潮に現れるシャイなカニたちにも出会えて、初心者でも楽しくカヌー体験ができました、チーム関ありがとうございました！！

The guide's explanations were easy to understand and very good. The descriptions of Midosuji in the future, the temple district, and the origins of Tanimachi-suji were also great.

ガイドさんの説明もわかり易く、
とても良かったです。
将来の御堂筋の説明、お寺街、
谷町筋の由来等、良かったです。

Not only did they provide transportation by car, but they also accompanied us into the city as guides and offered very attentive guidance. It was a truly wonderful trip. I definitely want to request their services again.

Lastly, the soba restaurant near Kyoto Station where we were dropped off was not just close to the station, but it was also an incredibly delicious soba place! 😊

車での送迎だけでなく、
街中のガイドや観光エリアで中まで同行下さり
大変丁寧なガイドして頂きました。
とても素晴らしい旅となりました。
ぜひ、またお願いしたいと思ってます。

最後に降ろしてもらった京都駅側の蕎麦屋さんも
ただ駅に近いのではなく、実に美味しいお蕎麦屋さんでした(^^)

The tour was guided by astronaut trainees who promptly searched for answers to participants' questions, ensuring everyone could enjoy the experience. However, I felt it was a bit disappointing that, although there were 15 of us touring the facility, not everyone could see at certain stations. It would have been nice if there had been some consideration, like encouraging everyone to squeeze in so that all could see. Additionally, at the end of the tour, there was a photo opportunity, but I wished they had called out to all participants. One person was engaged in conversation for too long, and I couldn't take a photo with my companion.

飛行士訓練生による案内施設を廻って、ツアー参加者からの質問について判らないことはすぐに検索しツアー参加者に答えを伝えてツアーを楽しめるよう考えてくれていました。
残念に感じたことは、15人で施設を廻っていましたが、プースによっては全員が見れず、少し声かけして「詰めて皆さんが見れるように…」等々の配慮があるとよかったと思いました。またツアー最後に写真を撮れるプースがありましたが、ツアー参加者全員に声をかけてほしかったです。
一人の方にばかり話し込んでいて、連れと一緒の写真を撮ることがが出来ませんでした。

I used the service on the last day of my trip when rental car prices were high due to the summer vacation season and I was feeling fatigued. I entered the places I wanted to visit in advance, and they took me to additional places I thought of on the day. They picked me up from the hotel and took me to the airport, making for a really easy and efficient sightseeing experience. It was with Okinoto Transportation.

夏休みシーズンでレンタカーも高く、疲労も蓄積している旅行最終日に利用しました。事前に行きたいところは入力し、当日思いついたところも言えば連れて行ってくれました。ホテルに迎えにきてもらい空港に送ってもらえるので本当にに楽で効率的な観光ができました。沖東交通さんでした。

The guide's explanations were very easy to understand, and it was a pleasant and very meaningful tour. Thank you very much.

ガイドさんの解説もとても分かりやすく
気持ちよくて　とても有意義なツアーでした　ありがとうございました

We had a canoe experience as a family of three. The guide, Mr. Seki, provided clear explanations and communicated with all participants, which made us feel at ease throughout the experience. We learned a lot about Iriomote Island and the ecology of the mangroves.

They provided both a small paddle for our 8-year-old daughter and an adult-sized paddle, but she persevered and paddled with the adult paddle until the end. It was also very enjoyable to get out of the canoe to see the mangroves up close and touch the creatures living there.

Although it was our first canoe experience, it became a precious opportunity to feel the nature of Iriomote Island, and we created wonderful memories.

家族３人でカヌー体験をしました。
ガイドの関さんの説明がわかりやすく、また、参加者全員とコミュニケーションを取りながら進めてくださったので、終始安心して参加することがでしましたし、西表島のことやマングローブの生態のことなど色々と知ることができました。
８歳の娘には子供用の小さいパドルと大人と同じパドル両方貸してくださいましたが、最後まで大人と同じパドルで頑張って漕いでいました。
途中カヌーをおりてマングローブを近くで見たり、そこにすむ生き物に触れたりしたこともとても楽しかったです。
初めてのカヌー体験でしたが、西表島の自然を感じられるとても貴重な体験になり、いい思い出ができました。

We encountered various creatures, including three coconut crabs of different sizes, as well as the Miyako toad and the pink-spotted swallowtail butterfly! Although we couldn't see the starry sky due to the clouds, the kids were thrilled with the friendly and interesting conversation with Hinata. Thank you very much!

大中小の3匹ものヤシガニ、他にも宮古ヒキガエルやベニモンアゲハなど、色々な生き物に出会えました！雲が多くて星空は見れませんでしたが、親しみやすくて面白いひなたさんとのトークに、子供たちも大喜びでした♪ありがとうございました！

The tour guide was very considerate, and I had a wonderful time. Thank you very much.

添乗員の方には、色々とお心遣いいただき、たいへん楽しく過ごせました。どうも、ありがとうございました。

This time, I participated in a bus tour alone. I think it would have been cheaper to go to Lake Shikotsu and Lake Toya with lunch included than to rent a car alone. There were also foreign participants, such as Chinese and Koreans, but you can plug in the earphones at the seat and listen to all the guides through them. So, it's reassuring that it supports English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. I was satisfied because I could visit the places I was interested in. I hope to go on a different tour next time.

今回は1人でバスツアーに参加しました。支笏湖洞爺湖には、1人でレンタカーを借りて行くより、昼食付きで行くとしたら安く行けたと思います。中国人や韓国人などの外国の方も参加していましたが、座席横にあるイヤホンを指す場所に差し込み、イヤホンにて全てのガイドを聴きます。なので英語、中国語、韓国語、日本語に対応しているので安心していけます。気になるところや回りたいところに行けたので満足です。また違うツアーに行けたらいいなと思います。

The long-awaited day has started with beautiful weather! 🏃
The participants were given three missions:
1. Explore Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine ⛩️
2. Explore Amano Iwato Shrine ⛩️
3. Explore Takachiho Gorge

For the first mission, we warmed up with a light climb up the stone steps!
The second mission didn’t have stone steps, but involved walking along a path with ups and downs.
Thanks to GOGODAY for the soft serve ice cream 🍦, which helped reset my spirits! ✌
The third mission involved walking from the parking lot to the boat dock near Takachiho Gorge… but it was quite tough… 💦
However, I kept telling myself that if I pushed a little more, even more amazing scenery awaited, and I successfully completed it! I did great! 🎉
Everyone on the same bus also worked hard and cleared the mission!! Wonderful! 🏆
Not only did we complete the missions, but we also adhered strictly to the schedule ⏰️.
Our guide, KAKU, provided commentary in English, Chinese, and Japanese without any notes 📝.
He shared humorous stories about the challenging names of the gods, the origins of the shrines, and Fukuoka cuisine.
I was charmed by his Fukuoka dialect in Japanese! 😚
Thank you for your hard work as we moved around, drenched in sweat.
I was moved by the breathtaking views of nature and felt healed by the sound of the flowing river.
Now it’s just a battle with my own stamina…
I’m glad I’ve been doing strength training! 💪😅

お天気に恵まれ待望の一日がスタート🏃
参加者に与えられたMISSIONは3つ
①上色見熊野座神社⛩️散策
②天岩戸神社⛩️ 散策
③高千穂峡　散策
①は石段登りで軽くウォーミングアップ！
②は石段は無いけど登り降りの遊歩道歩き
　GOGODAYさんからのソフトクリーム🍦　　　　　　　
　のプレゼントで心をリセット✌
③は駐車場から高千穂峡のボート乗り場付近までの遊歩道歩き…ですがこれが中々
シンドい…💦
でも周りの景色がもう少し頑張ればもっとスゴい景色が待ってると自分に言い聞かせて無事クリア！良く頑張った私エライ🎉
同じバスの皆さんもすごく頑張ってMISSIONクリア!!素晴らしい🏆
MISSIONだけで無く時間も厳守⏰️
ガイドのKAKUさんも英語、中国語、日本語をメモ📝無しでガイドされてました。
舌を噛みそうな神様の名前、神社の由来から福岡グルメまでユーモアを交えてお話してくださいました。
私は日本語が福岡弁だったのに萌え〜😚
汗まみれになって前に後ろに移動して頂きお疲れさまでした。ありがとうございます
大自然の絶景に感動しました。川のせせらぎに癒やされました。
あとは自分の体力との戦い…
筋トレ💪通ってて良かったぁ😅

Perhaps it was because there were so many people? It didn't feel like a leisurely experience to look around or search. Stargazing was also included, but it was completely different from what I had imagined.

人数が凄く多かったせいなのか？ゆっくり見る/探すと言う感じではなかった。星空を見るのも入っていたが想像していたのとは全然違っていた。

The guide was wonderful. The driver was also pleasant, and I was able to enjoy the tour comfortably. I would like to use this service again.

ガイドさんが素敵な方でした。運転手さんも感じが良く気持ちよくツアーに回れました。また利用したいです。

It was hot outside, but the limestone cave was a bit cool. I was able to enjoy some cold barley tea, and although I had water that had reached room temperature, it was a relief. The guide's explanations were very easy to understand, and I’m really glad I participated in this tour. I was looking at other tours, but since this one departed from my hotel, I decided on it right away. Thank you to the driver, the tour conductor, and the guide from the Valley of Gangala for all your help.

外は暑いけど、すこーし涼しい鍾乳洞でした。塩入の冷たい麦茶もいただけ、常温になってた水は持っていましたが，助かりました。ガイドさんの説明も大変わかりやすく，このツアーに参加してとても良かったです。他のツアーも見てましたが、丁度ステイ先のホテル発だったので，即決でした。運転手さん、添乗員さん、ガンガラーの谷のガイドさん、おせわになりました、ありがとうございました。

I experienced canoeing in Iriomote Island. The instructors were very attentive, making it easy for beginners to participate with confidence. Additionally, Mickey (the guide) had a wealth of knowledge, and it was a lot of fun. Thank you very much! It became the best memory!

西表島のカヌーを体験しました。丁寧に教えて下さり、初心者でも安心して参加出来ました。また、ミッキー（ガイドさん）の知識も豊富でとても楽しかったです、本当にありがとうございした！最高の思い出になりました！

Overall, it was great. Most of the participants were travelers from abroad, with about 70% coming from China. Everyone was well-mannered, adhered to the meeting times, and maintained a quiet atmosphere on the bus, making it a pleasant experience.

The tour guide spoke Chinese, English, and Japanese while providing explanations. Korean audio guidance was also available. The tour guide was kind and had a good demeanor.

Both the driver and the tour guide were excellent. Shirakawa-go and Takayama were also wonderful.

全体的によかったです。参加者は外国からの旅行者（7割ほどが中国からの旅行者？）がほとんどでした。みなさんマナーもよく、集合時間も厳守で、バス内も静かに過ごされていて、気持ちよく参加できました。
添乗員さんは中国語・英語・日本語をしゃべり説明されていました。韓国語は案内音声を流されていました。優しい対応のよい感じの添乗員さんでした。
運転手さんも添乗員さんもみなさんよかったです。
白川郷も飛騨高山もよかったです。

Mr. Miki, our tour guide, provided detailed explanations until we arrived at each location, which gave us a solid understanding and made for an enjoyable trip. I would like to come again in the cool autumn. I hope to see Mr. Miki again then. Thank you very much.

ツアー案内人の三木さんが、各現地へ到着するまでに細かく説明をしていただいたので基礎知識が入り、楽しい旅となりました。
今度は 、秋の涼しいときに来たいと思いました。その際はまた三木さんにお会いできることを願っています。
ありがとうございました。

I was able to visit three islands, and it was a very meaningful time. The mangroves, water buffalo carts, and the streets of Taketomi Island were amazing. The rental bicycles were great. The ferry from Ishigaki Island is very rocky, so those who are prone to motion sickness definitely need to take anti-nausea medication! After arriving at Taketomi Island, I took a bus to the city center, but it was unfortunate that the departure was delayed because we were waiting for the next ferry. This reduced our sightseeing time on Taketomi Island.

3つの島をまわることが出来て、とても有意義な時間でした。
マングローブや水牛車、竹富島の街並みは最高でした。レンタサイクル良かったです。
石垣島からの船はとても揺れるので、酔いやすい人は酔い止め必須です！
竹富島に着いてから市街地まで行くバスに乗車したけれど、次の便の船を待っていた為、発車が遅れたことが残念です。竹富島観光の時間が減りました。

I was able to see many famous spots in one day, which was great! The bear ranch exceeded my expectations. There are various troubles, but it would be best if we could coexist with humans.

１日で沢山の名所を見れてとても良かったです！クマ牧場も期待以上でした。何かとトラブルがありますが人間と共存できれば1番いいですね。

I didn't know places like this still existed. It's as if Yufu Island is heaven, a paradise, and the water buffalo cart is a shuttle to heaven—truly like a dream. The water buffalo cart feels like it's moving through time and space. There’s such a different world here that it makes me worry about returning to reality. I'm glad I went.

まだ、こういう場所があったのか。まるで由布島は天国、楽園、水牛車は天国への送迎、まさに夢の中。水牛車は時空を超えて移動しているようです。現実世界に戻れるか心配になるほど違った世界があります。行ってよかった。

Our family's first trip to Miyako Island ♬
We joined this tour because we wanted to see sea turtles.
Both my husband and I were worried about whether our son, who can't swim and has no snorkeling experience, would enjoy it, but thanks to Brother Hikaru (Matsuura Hikaru), he was able to have a great time in the water! He even started swimming on his own halfway through ♪ We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves too!
Brother Hikaru was very kind and always considerate, providing support, and we are truly grateful! Thank you so much!!
And the turtles ♡ We were so excited to see them up close!
Their faces were so incredibly cute ♡
We also got to take a lot of wonderful photos, making it a very satisfying tour!
Thank you for the most wonderful time!

家族で初めての宮古島♬
ウミガメに会いたくてこのツアーに参加しました。
私も主人も、泳げない&シュノーケリング経験ナシの息子が楽しめるかどうか心配でしたが、光お兄さん(松浦光さん)のおかげでとても楽しんで海に入ることができました！途中からひとりでスイスイ泳げるようにもなり♪私達も安心して楽しめました！
光お兄さんがとても優しく常に気遣ってサポートしてくださったおかげです。本当に感謝感謝です！ありがとうございました！！
そしてカメさん♡あんなに近くで会うことができ大興奮で大喜び！
顔がと〜っても可愛いかったです♡
素敵な写真もたくさん撮っていただき大満足のツアーになりました♪
最高に素敵な時間をありがとうございました〜

I participated with my wife and two children. It was tough due to strong winds and rain, but we were able to see a bat for a moment, and it was a lot of fun! Next time, I want to join when the moon is dark to see the Milky Way!

妻と子供２人で参加
強風&雨で大変でしたがコウモリも一瞬見られてとても楽しかったです✨次回は月が暗い時に参加して天の川を観たいと思います！

The driver was Japanese, and the tour guide was Chinese. About 70% of the passengers were Chinese, but everyone was well-mannered and the schedule was followed on time. The guide was also polite, and I really enjoyed it.

As for Asahiyama Zoo, entry is from the East Gate instead of the main gate, so it was the opposite of the recommended route, which may have caused a slight delay.

運転手は日本人の方で、添乗員は中国人の方でした。乗客は7割が中国人の方でしたが、皆さんマナーよく時間通りの運行でした。
ガイドも丁寧で、とても楽しめました。

旭山動物園は正門ではなく、東門からの入園になるので、推奨ルートとは逆の回り方になり、少しタイムロスがあったかと思います。

At my son's request, we were able to travel from Nago to Naha while visiting the Pokémon Center and manholes. The driver was also kind, and the journey went smoothly. Thank you!

息子のリクエストで、名護なら那覇移動をポケモンセンター＆マンホールを巡りながら移動できました。ドライバーの方も親切で、スムーズに移動できました。
ありがとうございました！

I visited Gujo, Takayama, and Shirakawa-go. Each location had about 1 to 2 hours for exploration and free time, but I thought it would be good to have a list of points I wanted to visit in advance. The shrines were located away from the exploration area, so I couldn't visit them within the time limit. The natural beauty and the atmosphere of each building and town were truly stunning, and I was very moved. I'm really glad I participated.

郡上、高山、白川郷を回りました。
それぞれ1時間〜2時間の散策と自由時間でしたが事前に行きたいポイントを押さえておくといいなと思いました。
神社は散策エリアから離れるので、時間内での参拝は出来ませんでした。
自然豊かでそれぞれの建物や街の雰囲気が大変美しくて感動しました。
参加して本当に良かったです。

I was able to see a sky full of stars, moving stars (satellites), shooting stars, and the Milky Way.
At the beach, I could see turtle nests.
The moon was beautiful, but it seemed difficult to capture the stars with the camera due to the moonlight, so the photo of the starry sky provided by the tour wasn't great.
The photos of the insects and other creatures we received were beautiful.

The tour involves parking the car on a dirt road.
We walk from the dirt road through a thicket, observing insects and plants, until we reach the beach. It's the same path both ways.

満天の星、動く星（衛星）、流れ星、天の川を見ることが出来ました。
浜辺ではウミガメの穴を見ることができました。
月が綺麗で、月の明かりで星をカメラで写すには難しいようで、ツアーの方からいただいた星空との写真がイマイチでした。
いただいた虫や生物の写真は綺麗でした。

ツアーは、車を野道に置きます。
野道から雑木林を虫や植物を見ながら浜辺まで歩きます。往復同じ道です。

The guide's reception and explanations were very good. Also, the driving was extremely safe, so I had no worries at all. This tour was so great that I plan to visit the Furano area next year. I'm looking forward to it already.

ガイドさんの応接や説明がとても良かったです。また、超安全運転で全く不安がありませんでした。
今回のツアーがとても良かったので、来年は富良野方面の予定です。今から楽しみにしてます。

I was taken care of by Yumi, the guide. It seems that encountering the coconut crab, hermit crab, Ryukyu sea cucumber, and sea turtle nesting was a very rare experience. The fun time flew by in an instant.

ガイドのゆみちゃんにお世話になりました。ヤシガニ、オカヤドカリ、琉球このはずく、海亀の産卵にも出会えてとてもレアな事だったようです。楽しい時間はあっという間でした。
