All Reviews for Bus Tours

While traveling, I enjoyed listening to the guide's stories about the local specialties and history... I was able to have a great time during the travel period. I went on March 18, but unfortunately, the penguin walk was over in the afternoon, so I couldn't see it, but I thoroughly enjoyed the zoo. Next time, I definitely want to visit in mid-winter when I can see the penguin walk for sure, and I would also like to go in different seasons! I would like to participate in this tour again at that time.

移動中もガイドさんのその土地の名産や歴史などの話を聞きながら…移動時間も楽しく過ごせました。
3月18日に行きましたが、残念ながら午後からのペンギンのお散歩は終了していて見る事は出来ませんでしたが動物園満喫出来ました。
次はペンギン散歩が確実に見れる真冬、そして違う季節にも行ってみたいです！
その時はまたこちらのツアーに参加したいと思います。

It was a one-hour bus ride, but it was fun riding on a double-decker bus around Osaka. We also got on the highway for a little while, and the kids were thrilled!

1時間のバスでしたが、2階建てバスに乗って大阪内を走り楽しかったです。少しでしたが、高速にも乗り子供は大喜びでした!

We were able to visit tourist spots that we definitely couldn't have managed without a car, and we were very satisfied. On the way back, we got off at a different location near the Hilton Hotel, which marked the end of the tour, and we were able to stop by American Village to see the sunset.

自分達では到底車なしでは回れない観光地を無駄なく回ることができ、大満足です。帰りは行きと違う場所でヒルトンホテル下車にして、ツアー終了にしたので、アメリカンビレッジに立ち寄り夕陽も見れました。

I was worried about the snow from the previous day, but thankfully it cleared up on the day itself! Thanks to that, I was able to see the snowy scenery of Shirakawa-go during this season. Of course, the guide was very articulate and easy to understand, making it a satisfying day.

前日からの雪が心配だったが、当日は何とか回復！
そのおかげでこの時期なのに雪景色の白川郷を見ることが出来ました^_^もちろんガイドの方もすごく話しが上手で分かりやすく満足な1日でした。

The bus driver, who was also the guide for the mangrove tour, was driving alone, and I could feel their effort. I think it was good because I was able to hear some enjoyable stories.

バスの運転手、マングローブの運転手が一人で運転しながらガイドをしていたので頑張りが伝わって来た。楽しい話も聞けたので良いと思う。

Among the many remote islands, I was able to enjoy a compact and well-planned sightseeing experience. It was my first visit to Ishigaki Island, and I was able to fully appreciate the beauty of the nature and scenery of the Yaeyama Islands, as well as the unique charm of each island. I absolutely recommend it.

On the ferry to Iriomote Island, I paid 500 yen for a premium seat, and the view from next to the captain's seat was amazing. I was moved to be able to take commemorative photos.

The mangrove forest made me truly feel like I was in a tropical paradise, and the water buffalo on Yubu Island were incredibly cute. The relaxed atmosphere and the songs played on the sanshin added to the ambiance.

On the glass-bottom boat in Taketomi, I was able to see many fish, including the clownfish. Everything was just fantastic.

離島がいくつもある中で、計画的にコンパクトに観光ができました。初めて訪れた石垣島でしたが、八重山の自然と景色の美しさ、それぞれの島の良さを堪能することができました。絶対オススメです。西表島に渡る船では500円出してプレミアムシートにしましたが、船長席の脇から眺める景色は最高でした。記念撮影をさせていただき感動でした。
マングローブの林は南国に来た実感が湧き、由布島に渡る水牛もとても可愛いらしかったです。のんびりとした時間が流れ三線での歌も雰囲気を盛り上げてくださいました。
竹富のグラスボートではカクレクマノミ始め沢山の魚を見ることができました。とにかく全て最高でした。

It was great to efficiently visit the main spots by car with a guide. The guide's explanations were thorough, allowing us to learn about Yakushima from various perspectives. The lunch was also delicious. However, it was a bit disappointing that we couldn't visit one location due to the detailed explanations.

It was unfortunate that we couldn't complete a full loop around the island due to road closures, but the guide made adjustments, resulting in a good tour. The driver also navigated the narrow mountain roads with stable driving, which made it enjoyable and安心.

車で行ける主だったところを、ガイドさんつきで、効率よく回ってくださり、よかった。ガイドさんの説明も、丁寧で、屋久島について、色々な面から、知ることができました。昼食も、美味しかったです。ただ、説明が詳し過ぎて、1ヵ所いけなかった所があったのは、少し残念でした。
通行止めのため、島内一週出来なくて、残念でしたが、工夫して、回ってくださり、よいツアーとなりました。ドライバーさんも、狭い山道も、安定感ある運転で、安心して楽しめました。

The shuttle service to the hotel allowed us to efficiently visit Iriomote Island, Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island all in one day.

I don't think I could have planned such an efficient trip on my own.

The water buffalo on Yubu Island really gave me a sense of being in a foreign land, and it was a lot of fun.

Renting a bicycle on Taketomi Island was definitely the right choice! Although our stay was a bit short and we couldn't stop by any shops, I was very satisfied with visiting the beaches I wanted to see, including the Star Sand Beach!

ホテルまでの送迎もあり1日で西表島～由布島～竹富島と３島を効率よく回れました

自分でプラン立ててたらなかなかここまで効率よく回れないと思いました

由布島の水牛がとても異国を感じさせてくれて楽しかったです

竹富島は自転車借りて正解！少し滞在時間が短かったのでお店などには寄れなかったけど行きたかった海岸や星の砂のビーチを巡れて大満足です！

There was a lot of moving around, and I felt that the time spent at each sightseeing spot was a bit lacking. It might be good for those who want to efficiently visit many places in one day.

移動が多く、それぞれの観光時間が少し物足りなく感じました。効率よく一日でたくさん回りたい方にはいいかもしれません。

I had only booked my flight and hotel for my first trip to Okinawa, and while I was considering renting a car, I ended up searching for bus tours and found this site, where I made a trial reservation. The result was the best trip ever. Around 8 AM, the guide came to pick me up at the hotel lobby and escorted me to the bus parked nearby. After that, we headed north, picking up guests in front of various hotels, visiting several sightseeing spots, and thoroughly enjoying the main attraction, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Finally, we went to a souvenir shop, and I returned to my hotel at around 7:30 PM. For lunch, you can either grab something quick at each sightseeing spot or buy something in advance to eat on the bus. I chose the latter and had a great time at the attractions. Along the way, the guide shared stories about the scenery and introduced the charm of Okinawa, pointing out various highlights and even mentioning which tourist spots had slow cash registers. It was a delightful and educational day. Since the tour fee included admission to all the places, I didn’t have to do anything special—just enjoy myself, which was fantastic. I kept thinking how tough it would have been if I had rented a car, with a two-hour drive each way and the wait time for tickets.

初沖縄旅行に飛行機とホテルしか決まってなく、レンタカーにしようかなと思いつつ、バスツアーを探したら、こちらのサイトに辿り着き、試し予約してみました。結果としては最高の旅でした。朝8時頃にホテルロビーまでガイトさんが迎えに来られ、ホテルのそばに停めてあったバスの席まで案内し、その後は北上しながら各ホテル前までお客さんを受け入れ、いくつかの観光地をめぐり、メインとなる美ら海水族館をたっぷりと満喫したあと、最後のスポットとなるお土産のところまでいき、その後は各ホテルまでお客さんを送り帰す、僕の泊まっていたホテルに着いたのが夜7時半です。昼食は各観光地にて手早く簡単に済ませるか、事前に買って置いてバス中で食べるのもできます。僕は後者を選択して、観光地で思いきり楽しんできました。道中にガイトさんから風景にまつわるお話や沖縄の風情に関する紹介、各所の見るポイントとどこの観光地のレジ精算が遅いまでいろいろ教えてもらい、とても愉快で、勉強となった1日でした。ツアー料金に各所の入場料も含めていたので、自分が特に何かをする事もなく、ただただ楽しむだけ、最高でした。もし自分がレンタカーを借りてしまったら、片道2時間の運転と入場券買うの待ち時間はどんなだけ辛いことだろうと次ぐ次ぐ思いました。

The sightseeing time was very well considered... I was able to fully enjoy the places I wanted to visit in Kyoto‼️

What was disappointing was that for lunch... I had ordered the tofu set meal, but everyone on the bus had the tempura set meal.

But! Everyone on the bus was very gentlemanly, and I had a very meaningful day! I am grateful! Thank you very much!

それぞれの観光時間も、とても配慮された時間内で‥
きょうとの行きたかった所を‼️
満喫させて貰いました！

残念だったのが
昼食で‥豆腐御膳を頼んでたのに‥
バスの皆んな全員が、天ぷら御膳でした

でも！　
バスの中も紳士的な方ばかりで‥
とても有意義な1日を過ごさせて頂き！
感謝してます！　ありがとうございました！

The timely operation made it easy to create a smooth travel schedule. It was a very cold day, and the second floor was tough in the heavy rain, but the staff worked hard to communicate with us, which made for a great memory. My elderly parents were also very happy. I would like to use this service again.

時間通りの運行で、旅行スケジュールがスムーズにできて良かったです。
とても寒い日で大雨の中の2階は辛かったですが、スタッフさんが一所懸命コミュニケーションとってくださったのでいい思い出になりました。
高齢の両親もとても喜んでくれました。
また利用したいと思います。

There was someone who wrote about this experience before, and anyway, the meeting place is hard to find... It seems that nothing has improved since it was written before. I would like it to be made clear at a glance that this is the meeting place.
The bus tour was great, and the tour guide's service was excellent, so I was very satisfied.
If I have another opportunity to go to Kyoto, I would like to participate in a different course.
Thank you very much.

以前、この体験談で書かれていた方がいましたが とにかく集合場所が分かりにくい... 以前 書かれていた時から全く改善されていないようでした。一目でここが集合場所と分かるようにして欲しいです。
バスツアーの方は添乗員さんの対応も良く大満足でした。
また京都に行く機会があれば別のコースで参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

It was raining, and the boat to Iriomote Island was rocking quite a bit, but when I boarded the mangrove cruise ship, the rain lightened up and it was great to open the windows for viewing. The boat got close to the sights, and the guide was very clear and informative, which was wonderful. The water buffalo on Yubu Island were also interesting, and the guide's stories were entertaining, but it seemed that from the very back seat, the voice didn't reach very well, so I recommend sitting at the front!

雨が降っており、西表に行く船はよくゆれたがマングローブのクルーズ船に乗った時は、小雨になり窓を開けての見学はとても良かったです。近くまで船が寄ってくれ、ガイドの方も分かりやすくとてもよかったです。
由布島の水牛も、ガイドさんの話が面白くてよかったが、一番うしろの席だと声はあまり届かなかったようなので、一番前がお勧めですね♪

I was able to efficiently visit three remote islands.
(I think it would have been difficult for an individual on their first time.)
This is a recommended tour for first-timers.

離島３島をとても効率よくまわることができました。
（初めてで個人ならば難しかったと思います。）
初めての方におすすめのツアーです。

I was grateful for the shuttle service from the hotel. Although there was no tour guide, I had no trouble and was able to enjoy sightseeing smoothly. It was nice that I could use the bus to visit the village and Kaiji Beach during my free time on Taketomi Island.

ホテルから送迎があるのが有り難かったです。
添乗員は居ないけど困ることはなくスムーズに観光出来ました。
竹富島はフリータイムでしたがバス利用で集落やカイジ浜に行けたので良かったです。

The bus driver's storytelling was excellent.
The stories were so engaging that the atmosphere in the bus was lively.

This was my first time visiting, and although it was a whirlwind one-day tour,
everyone was very satisfied, especially since it was my mother's wish to go.

I have created more memories with my mother on this trip. ♡

バスの運転手さんのお話が上手。
〇み〇ろ並みのお話で、車内盛り上がりました。

今回、初の上陸、駆け足での1日のツアーではありましたが、
「行きたい」と言ってくれた母の立っての場所という事もあり、
同行者全員大満足でした。

母との旅の思い出がまた増えました♡

I was satisfied to be able to visit famous spots in one day. I would like to come again during the off-peak season. The guide was kind and charming, making it a great memory. Thank you very much.

有名所を一日で回れて満足です。
今度はオフピークの時期にまた来たいです。
ガイドさんも親切、チャーミングで良い思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

The guide was simply wonderful. I was impressed by how skillfully they switched between Japanese and Chinese, keeping both Japanese and inbound tourists engaged. They had a wealth of information, and although it wasn't my first time in Hokkaido, I learned many things I didn't know, making it a meaningful day. Unfortunately, at the end at Lake Shikotsu, two inbound guests did not return to the bus by the departure time. The guide made several trips back and forth between Lake Shikotsu and the bus, desperately searching for them, but ultimately, we couldn't make contact until the tour ended, leaving a somewhat unsatisfactory feeling about the tour. I hope the two of them are safe. Thank you to our guide, Onodera, and our driver, Hinata, for a fun tour.

とにかくガイドさんが、素晴らしかった。日本語と中国語を巧みに使い分け、日本人も、インバウンドも退屈させないよう聞いていて感心しました。情報も沢山お持ちで、北海道は初めてではありませんでしたが、知らなかったこともいろいろ教えてもらい、有意義な一日になりました。残念だったのは、最後の支笏湖で、インバウンドの２名様が、出発時間になってもバスに戻ってこなかったこと。ガイドさんは何度も支笏湖とバスを往復し、必死に探していましたが、結局ツアー終了まで、連絡が取れず、なんとなく後味のすっきりしないツアーになってしまいました。お二人がご無事であったことを祈念しています。ガイドの小野寺さん、ドライバーの日向さん、楽しいツアーありがとうございました。

I joined Maria's tour with an American who was visiting Kyoto for the first time. It seemed challenging to guide in both Japanese and English, but it was very informative and I was extremely satisfied. If you were to explore on your own, you wouldn't be able to cover this much in a day, so I think it's a well-structured plan for first-time visitors to Kyoto. However, for those who want to take their time, revisiting on a separate day might be a good option. I definitely want to recommend this to my friends.

京都初めてのアメリカ人と一緒にマリアさんのツアーに参加しました。
日本語と英語両方でガイドされて大変そうでしたが、とてもinformative で大満足でした。個人だと１日でここまでまわれないので、京都初めての人にはとても良く構成されたプランだと思います。ただ、ゆっくり周りたい方は個別で後日に再訪もアリかな、と思います。友達にもぜひおすすめしたいです。

There is a walking course in Yufushima, and I was truly able to enjoy nature surrounded by tropical trees! The lunch was also delicious Okinawan cuisine.

由布島の中は散策できるコースがあり、まさに南国の木々に囲まれた自然を満喫できました！昼食も沖縄料理で美味しかったです。

It snowed in the morning and it was beautiful, but it was a bit disappointing that it was sunny in the afternoon. It’s pretty when it’s sunny too, but when the snow accumulates, it’s even more beautiful. The experience changes with the weather. I felt the time was short, but there are few buses available, so I recommend it for those without a car!

午前中に雪が降って綺麗だったんですが午後は晴れて少し残念でした。晴れた時も綺麗ですがやっぱり雪が積もるともっと綺麗。天気によって体感が変わる所。時間が短いと感じましたが利用できるバスが少ないので車が無い人はおすすめです！

I was able to efficiently explore each island in a short amount of time while truly experiencing their charm. I would like to request this again.

短時間で効率良く回りながら、それぞれの島の魅力もちゃんと感じることができました。またお願いしたいです。

I was able to relax on Iriomote Island and Taketomi Island in just one day. The colors of the sea and sky were wonderful, so I've decided to go again in June. Next time, I want to experience the sunset and stargazing.

1日で西表島と竹島をゆったりできました、海や空の色が素晴らしく6月に再度いくことにしました。
次回はサンセットや星空観察など体験したいと思います。

I participated with my girlfriend. I was wondering whether to take the train from Sapporo, but the transfers were inconvenient and it would take quite a bit of time and money, so I chose the bus. This was the right choice. You might think it takes a long time, but it actually takes the same amount of time by train. It was inexpensive, and we could get off in the downtown area on the way back, making dinner reservations easy. We also got to see the much-anticipated penguin parade up close, which was really great.

彼女と参加。札幌から電車で行こうか迷っていたのですが、乗り継ぎが悪く、結構時間おお金もかかるので、バスにしました。
これ、正解でした。長いなぁと思うかもしれませんが、電車でも結局同じ時間かかります。これ、格安で、しかも帰りは繁華街に降りれるので夕飯の予約も簡単でした。
お待ちかねのペンギンの行進も間近で見れて、とってもよかったです。

I was very satisfied that all the places I wanted to visit were included. It was a plan that would have been impossible to organize on my own; truly a professional from the area.

行って見たかった場所がすべてそろっていて大満足でした。個人で計画は無理なプランさすが現地のプロです。

This time, we were the only Japanese among all the participants, who were mostly from overseas. However, the tour guide was very considerate and kept us entertained throughout. The sightseeing content was great, and although it was very cold that day, we were fortunate with the weather, which was really nice. It's rare!

At the zoo, I was really moved to see the wolves, which I had wanted to see. The big cats were also very entertaining and engaging. The Shirahige Falls was a breathtaking sight that can only be seen in winter, and I think anyone going to Hokkaido should definitely see it. Lastly, the tour guide loved food and recommended some delicious restaurants, so we were able to enjoy a wonderful dinner. I plan to go a few more times this year, and I would love to go again then.

今回のアクティビティは海外の方ばかりで、日本人は私たちだけでした。しかし、添乗員の方が気を遣ってくれ、終始楽しませてくれました。観光内容はこの日はとても寒かったのですが、天候には恵まれ、とても良い天気でした。珍しいそうです！
動物園では狼がとても見たかったので感動でした。他、猛獣もサービス精神旺盛で楽しませてくれました。白ひげの滝は冬だからこそ見られる光景で感動でした。北海道に行く方は必ず見た方が良いと思います。最後に添乗員の方が食べることがとても好きで、美味しいお店を教えてくれたので、ディナーも楽しく頂くことができました。今年もあと何回か行く予定なので、その時はまた、行きたいと思います。

It was my first time riding the Sky Bus. It was a cold day. Since I came from Aomori for the trip, I thought it would feel warm, but the Sky Bus was quite chilly.

However, even while shivering from the cold, I appreciated the words of the guide that reached my ears. I was very grateful for the cheerful words meant to entertain the tourists. While listening to the stories, I felt it was a good choice to take the Sky Bus today. The wind was extremely cold, but thank you for the heartwarming experience.

　スカイバスに乗ったのは初めて。風が冷たい日でした。青森から旅行に来たということもあり、体感は暖かく感じられるだろうと思って乗ったスカイバスの寒かったこと。
　しかし、寒い寒いと震えながらも耳に入ってくるガイドさんの言葉。観光客を楽しませようとする楽しい言葉がとてもありがたく思いました。お話しを聞きながら、今日はスカイバスを選んで良かったと思う時間でした。風は最高冷たかったけど、心温まる時間をありがとうございました。

My husband is 55 and I am 49. We participated in a tour with Beltora for the first time, hoping to create a memory from our trip to Kyushu. Before signing up, I read some reviews and saw that many participants were from abroad, which made me worry about whether we would be okay joining. However, our Chinese guide was kind and made an effort to speak in Japanese, which made our experience very enjoyable. (Most of the tour was in Chinese, with occasional English and Japanese.)

Out of 37 participants, there were only 4 Japanese people, and several others joined alone. Thanks to visiting several top power spots in Kumamoto and Miyazaki, we didn't get caught in the heavy rain during our trip. The omikuji (fortune slip) we received at Dazaifu Tenmangu the next day was a great blessing. I feel like things are gradually improving for us.

We were able to relax surrounded by the great nature of Aso and Takachiho Gorge. Depending on the destination, there are well-maintained but quite steep mountain paths to climb. It was still a bit early for cherry blossoms, but the rapeseed flowers along the way were beautifully in bloom. I would like to sign up again if I find another good course.

It was mostly a bus tour, so we were able to depart and arrive on time, and I enjoyed it without any issues. However, the dryness on the bus was severe, and my throat started to hurt. I was wearing a mask, but it was still quite dry, so I wished there was a way to improve that.

ほぼバスだけのツアーだったので、時間通りに発着できたし、問題なく楽しめました。
バスの乾燥がひどく、喉が痛くなりました。マスクをしていましたが、それでも結構な乾燥だったので、どうにかなればなーと思いました。
