Japan
The tour guide was a Chinese bus tour guide who spoke Japanese well and was very friendly. I was very satisfied with the tour, and what stood out the most was that although we only had one hour for lunch at Lake Toya, following the guide led us to a delicious hidden gem for a meal at a lower price. I had a scallop rice bowl for just one coin, and for an additional 100 yen, I enjoyed a miso soup with young scallops. However, most of the participants were Taiwanese and Korean, with me being the only Japanese person. Thanks to this, I was able to splurge on souvenirs and also enjoy a foot bath.
中国人バスツアーガイドさんだったが日本語も上手くフレンドリーな方で、ツアーは十分満足で、特に印象強いのは、洞爺湖でのお昼時間1時間しか無いが、ガイドさんについて行った方が安くて美味しい穴場の食事が楽しめた。1コインでホタテ丼。プラス100円でホタテの稚貝の味噌汁。
ただし、ほとんどが台湾、韓国人で、日本人は私1人だけ。
おかげでお土産代も奮発でき、足湯にも浸かることが出来た。
The time management was very good, and it was nice to see everything smoothly. I think that guides in overseas tours tend to provide more detailed explanations compared to Japanese guides. If they could provide more in-depth explanations, I believe it would make the long journey more enjoyable without getting bored. Both the guide and the driver were very considerate, which was great. I think if the company prepared detailed scripts in both Japanese and English, it would make things easier for both the Japanese and English guides.
時間配分も、とても良かったし、サクサクと、見れて良かったです。
海外などのガイドを見ると、日本のガイドより詳しくいろいろと説明してくれる傾向があると思います。
掘り下げた説明をもっとしてもらうと長い道中飽きずに楽しめると思います。
ガイドさんも運転手さんもとても気遣いができて良かったです。会社が詳しい脚本を日本語版と英語版と作って渡しておけば、日本語ガイドさんも英語ガイドさんもラクだと思います。
Dear Akasa,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the tour guide. We will work promptly towards improvements. Additionally, we are currently considering future Japanese and English versions of our guides. Thank you for your suggestions.

It's a unique experience to be able to visit so many places in just one day on a tour! Even the small troubles faced by guests were handled smoothly thanks to the wonderful support from our tour guide. Bravo! Hiro, our guide, was fantastic, and his personality and work ethic made for a memorable experience.
I believe there were participants from five different countries? Everyone was smart, and the bus environment was pleasant from start to finish. It's understandable why this tour is popular, as it covers globally renowned tourist spots. The schedule is tight, but there's plenty of time for sightseeing. Even those with walking aids were able to enjoy the tour.
I opted for the admission tickets and lunch, which was definitely the right choice. It was smooth and stress-free. I would love to participate again. Thank you very much!
一日でこれだけのコースをまわれるのはツアーならでは!!お客さんの小さいトラブルも添乗員さんの素晴らしいフォローでとてもスムーズに進みました。ブラボー!ヒロさん(添乗員さん)のお人柄とお仕事ぶりが素晴らしくてそれも一つの思い出に。
今回は5カ国の方が参加と仰っていたかな?皆さんスマートで、スタートからゴールまでのバス車内も終始気持ち良い環境でした。世界的に人気の観光地をこれでもかと周るから、人気なのは納得。時間はタイトだけど観光には充分。杖をついた方もしっかり観光出来ていました。
拝観チケット、昼食付きにしたけど大正解。スムーズでノンストレス。
また是非参加したいです。ありがとうございました。
Dear Mizutama,

We also appreciate your thoughtful review of your experience.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

I was satisfied with the course that I couldn't have done alone. The schedule that had us arriving in Sapporo by 6 PM was also good. The guide's talk, mixing Japanese and Chinese, was very nice. My children (two middle schoolers) were amazed that they could speak Japanese, Chinese, and English!
Personally, I was very moved by the beauty of Lake Shikotsu, so I would love to see a canoe and SUP experience tour that starts in Sapporo rather than a meet-up at the location!
Thank you for taking care of my family!
自分だけでは、まわれないコースで、満足でした。
18時には札幌に到着する日程も良かったです。
ガイドさんの、日本語、中国語交じってのトークもとても良かったです。子供(中学生2人)が、日本語も中国語も英語も喋れるのがすごい!と言っていました。
個人的には支笏湖の美しさにとても感動したので、現地集合型ではない札幌集合での支笏湖カヌー、SUP体験ツアーを作ってほしいです!
家族でお世話になりました!
After 25 years, I wanted to visit Iriomote Island and Yufu Island, so I went to Ishigaki Island. This time, I made a reservation with Beltora, which I trust, and went with my friends. We enjoyed a leisurely trip where time flowed slowly.
The person managing the cattle played the sanshin and sang Okinawan folk songs, allowing us to spend a pleasant time that you can't experience in the city, even if it was just for a short while.
25年ぶりに西表島と由布島に行きたいと思い石垣島へ行きました。今回も安心のベルトラで予約を取りお友達と行ってきました。時間がゆっくりと流れのんびりした旅行が楽しめました。
牛舎を操る方が、三線を弾き沖縄民謡を唄って短い時間ですが、都会ではできない心地よい時間を過ごすことができました。
Kuroda, our guide, provided excellent explanations in both English and Japanese. Thanks to the detailed information, I was able to enjoy the highlights without any confusion.
I was especially happy to be able to take photos of the three gassho-zukuri houses lined up together.
Thank you very much. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.
ガイドの黒田さんの英語と日本語の説明、ご案内が素晴らしかったです。
詳しく教えてくださったので、迷うことなく見どころをしっかり楽しむことができました。
特に三軒並んだ合掌造りの家の撮影ができたのがとても嬉しかったです。
どうもありがとうございました。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
Dear Fiona,
Thank you for your feedback on your experience. The weather was great on the day of your visit, and I believe you were able to take many memorable photos in Shirakawa-go. I hope you will have the opportunity to visit us again. I think you will be moved by Shirakawa-go as it becomes lush and green. The vibrant colors of the autumn World Heritage site are even more wonderful. We look forward to your next visit.
Once again, thank you for participating in our tour.
Kuroda

体験談のご感想ありがとうございます。当日は天気も良くて、白川郷では記念になる写真がたくさん撮られたと思います。
ぜひ、またこちらに来れれる機会を作っていただきたいと願っています。これから緑いっぱいになる白川郷も感動されると思います。秋の色鮮やかな世界遺産も更に素晴らしいですよ。お待ちしています。
改めまして、弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。

This was my first trip to Okinawa. It was a journey with my three daughters, but since I'm a paper driver, I didn't have the courage to rent a car (laughs), so I thought I wouldn't be able to do any sightseeing that required traveling far... Just when I was about to give up, I found this bus tour.
Of course, I wanted to visit the famous Churaumi Aquarium, and for some reason, my youngest really wanted to go to Pineapple Park! So, I was satisfied just to find a tour that could accommodate both of those wishes.
On the day of the tour, we started from Kencho-mae, and as we picked up participants from various hotels, the seats gradually filled up, and by the end, it was almost full, which shows how popular this tour is. At Manzamo, there was a surprising strong wind that blew my daughter's hat away (tears), but we were deeply moved by the ocean blue of Kouri Island, and we even saw sea turtles from the bus window.
Light snacks were distributed on the bus, and I thought they would be cheap sandwiches like the typical ones... but I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the sandwiches were! Eating those sandwiches under the blue sea and sky of Kouri Island became an unforgettable experience. Pineapple Park was also quite enjoyable (laughs).
The Churaumi Aquarium was impressive with the whale sharks, and I was moved by the quality of the dolphin show. I couldn't buy the purple sweet potato tart at the snack castle because it was sold out, but I ended up spending quite a bit.
On the way back, instead of returning to Naha, we were dropped off in Chatan, and although it was outside the tour, we were able to enjoy American Village as well! I was able to experience a full day of classic Okinawa sightseeing, and for this price, I am truly satisfied!!! I highly recommend it to first-time visitors to Okinawa!!!
初の沖縄旅行でした。
私と娘3人での旅だったのですが、私がペーパードライバーなためレンタカーを借りる勇気が持てず(笑)、遠方に足を運ぶような観光はできないよな…と諦めていたところ、こちらのバスツアーがヒットしました。
やはり王道の美ら海水族館は行きたい、そしてなぜか末っ子がどうしてもパイナップルパークに行きたい!とのことで(笑)、その2つが叶うところが見つかりまずはその時点で満足。
ツアー当日、私達は県庁前からスタートしたのですが、いろいろなホテルに泊まっている方をピックアップしながら徐々に参加者で座席が埋まっていき、最終的にはほぼ満席になっていたのでやはり人気なツアーなんだと。
万座毛ではすごい強風で娘の帽子が飛ばされるというハプニングもあり(涙)、古宇利島のオーシャンブルーに大感動、車窓からウミガメも見えました。
車内で軽食が配布されたのですが、どうぜTheサンドイッチみたいなチープな感じのものが配られるんでしょ…と思いきや、期待を良い意味で裏切られた美味しいサンドイッチでした!
古宇利島の青い海、青い空のもと食べたサンドイッチ…忘れられないものとなりました。
パイナップルパークもそれなりに(笑)。
美ら海水族館は圧巻のジンベエザメと、イルカショーのクオリティに感動。
お菓子御殿では紅芋タルトが完売で購入できなかったのですが、散財してしまいました。
帰りは那覇まで戻らず、途中の北谷で降ろしていただき、ツアー外ですがアメリカンビレッジも楽しむことができました!
まる一日、沖縄観光の王道を体験することができ、これでこのお値段は本当に大満足です!!!
沖縄初めての方にオススメします!!!
It's difficult to get around without a rental car, but you can take a tour around the west side of the island. The veteran guide's stories were fascinating. Also, being able to get off at the airport allowed us to make the most of our last day of stay. Although it was cloudy on the day, we were able to enjoy a beautiful view of Kabira Bay from Kabira Park.
レンタカー利用でなければ行きづらい、島の西側をぐるっとまわってもらえます。ベテランガイドさんのお話が興味深かったです。また、空港で下車できたので滞在最終日を有効に使うことができました。
当日は曇り空でしたが、川平公園からは美しい川平湾を見渡すことができました。
This tour is packed with the charm of three remote islands. Before participating, I thought the one-hour mangrove cruise might be long, but the guide's explanations were fascinating, making it just the right length. The stories from the bus driver guide on the way to Yubu Island and the staff accompanying us on the water buffalo cart were great insights that I wouldn't have known if I had gone on my own. The lunch on Yubu Island was a delicious bento that was already prepared, so there was zero waiting time. On Taketomi Island, I was able to visit all the places I wanted to go—Nishi Sanchu, Kondoi Beach, and Kaiji Beach—by renting a bicycle. I leisurely rode around, but I ended up getting a bit lost and didn't have time to explore the town center (laughs). So, next time, I would like to stay on Taketomi Island.
離島3島の魅力がギュッと詰まったツアーです。
参加前は1時間のマングローブ遊覧は長いのではないかと思っていましたが、ガイドさんの説明が興味深く、ちょうど良い長さでした。
由布島へ向かう際のバスのドライバーガイドさんや水牛車い同乗のスタッフさんのお話も、個人で行っていたら知り得ない良いお話でした。
由布島での昼食も美味しいお弁当がすでに用意されていて、待ち時間ゼロでした。
竹富島ではレンタサイクルで、行きたかった西桟橋、コンドイ浜、カイジ浜すべてに行くことができました。自転車でのんびりまわり、また少々道に迷ってしまい島の中心地を散策する時間がなくなってしまいました(笑)。ですので次回は竹富島に宿泊したいと思います。
I definitely wanted to visit Sefa Utaki. I prefer to explore at my own pace, so I wanted to take a local bus, but I found out that there are very few buses and the distance from the bus stop to the shrine is quite far... Since I'm not good with directions, I thought I might get lost, so I decided to join a bus tour for peace of mind. The downside of group travel is that you can't move at your own pace, but it was still definitely worth the visit. It truly is a power spot! The intense energy I absorbed at the shrine kept me awake that night. The tour of the Gangala Valley (with a guide) was also great. There were detailed explanations, so I was able to learn a lot and enjoy the tour. If I had to mention a downside, it might be that we had to wait a bit at the beginning (without knowing why), which was a little boring...
斎場御嶽ぜひ行ってみたいところでした。
個人でゆっくり回るのが好きなので路線バスで行きたかったのですが、調べてたらバスの本数が少ないのと、バス停から御嶽までの距離がけっこうあり…
方向オンチなので迷う可能性もあるし、このさいバストゥアーのほうが安心、ということで参加。
集団移動は自分のペースで動けないのが欠点ですが、それでも十分行った価値がありました。
たしかにパワースポットです!
御嶽で浴びた濃いエネルギーのせいでその夜は眠れませんでした。
ガンガラーの谷(ガイドつき)のほうも良かったです。
細かい説明があったので色々と知ることができ、楽しく回れました。
難を言えば、初めにちょっと待たされた(訳もわからず)のが退屈だったかも…
Shirakawa-go had a lot of tourists, which was a bit disappointing, but the farmhouse area at the very back was quiet and enjoyable. Gokayama was very peaceful, and the photo of Ainokura with Mount Hakusan in the background taken from a little higher up was fantastic. The bus was just the right size and comfortable. I was surprised to see many foreign visitors overall. The tour guide and interpreter were polite and pleasant. However, I felt that there were fewer explanations about local anecdotes and history compared to guided tours in other countries, which was a bit disappointing. Since the bus ride was nearly four hours long, I think it would have been even more enjoyable if there had been a bit more storytelling. One disappointment was the washi paper-making experience in Ainokura. I wanted to try it, but it seemed that only one person could participate at a time, and while I was waiting, someone who had made a reservation arrived, and they didn't seem too pleased about walk-ins, so I gave up. The price was reasonable, and overall, I was satisfied.
白川郷は観光客が多く、ちょっと興ざめなところもありましたが、一番奥の民家園は静かでゆっくり楽しめました。五箇山はとても静かで少し登ったところから撮った白山を背景にした相倉の写真は最高でした。バスもちょうどよい大きさで快適。全般に外国人の方が多かったのに驚きました。添乗員さんも通訳の方も礼儀正しく感じの良い方たちでした。ただ他の国のガイド付きツアーに比べると地域の逸話や歴史などの説明が少なかったのが残念に感じました。バスに乗っている時間が4時間近くあるので、もう少しお話しして頂けたらさらに楽しかったと思います。一つ残念だったのは相倉での和紙作りの体験。やってみたくて行ったのですが、一人ずつしかできないようで、私が待っている間に予約したという方が見えて飛び込みはあまり良い顔をされなかったようなので諦めました。料金はリーズナブルで全般的に見て満足です。
Dear Tomoko,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day. Recently, we have seen a significant increase in visitors from overseas. I believe you may have been a bit surprised to find that on some days, over 80% of the visitors in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama are foreigners. We are very pleased to hear your feedback that the tour you participated in was "a comfortable day." As you may have noticed, Shirakawa-go and Gokayama are UNESCO World Heritage sites, but each has a completely different atmosphere.
Regarding your comments, you are absolutely right, and we appreciate your valuable feedback. While this is not an excuse, we have recently revised some aspects of the course, and since it is still a new area for us, we sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations. We will strive to ensure that the content meets your satisfaction as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
White Ring Co., Ltd.

先日は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
最近は海外から訪れる方々が非常に多くなっています。白川郷と五箇山は日によっては8割以上が外国人の場合があるので少し驚かれたと思います。ご参加いただいたツアーが、「快適な一日でした」というご感想をいただき大変うれしく思っています。白川郷と五箇山は世界遺産合掌集落ですが、それぞれ全く雰囲気が違うことにお気づきになられたと思います。
ご指摘の内容ですが、おっしゃる通りでごもっともなご意見です。これはまったく理由になりませんが、今月からコース内容を改めた箇所でもあり、まだ慣れない地域という事もあり、ご希望に添えなく大変申し訳なく思います。早急にご満足の行く内容になるよう努めたいと思います。

This time, I participated in a day trip tour of Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi Islands (glass boat and water buffalo cart plan).
First of all, it was really fun! (It was my first time participating.)
I had a lot of worries before joining, but on the day of the tour, staff were waiting at each location, providing thorough explanations, which made me feel at ease.
Even pregnant women could participate.
I definitely recommend you to join!
今回、西表•由布•竹富島 日帰りツアー(グラスボートと水牛車プラン)に参加しました。
まず感想として、すっごく楽しかったです。(初参加)
参加前は不安が多かったですが、当日は各地点にスタッフが待ち、しっかりした説明があり安心でした。
妊婦の方でも参加できました。
ぜひ参加してみてください。
You can see other islands from the boat even as far as Iriomote Island. The water buffalo are really cute! There was plenty of free time on Yubu Island, and I was able to circle the island. The gelato on the island was also delicious. The mangroves I saw for the first time were lovely! Since it was a half-day tour, I was able to leisurely explore Ishigaki Island afterward. The hotel shuttle service was also helpful.
西表島までも船から他の島も見えます。水牛が本当に可愛い!由布島での自由時間も十分にあり島一周出来ました。島内でのジェラートも美味しかった。初めて見たマングローブも素敵!
半日なのでツアー後も石垣島をゆっくり観光できました。ホテルの送迎も助かりました。
The participants were mostly foreign guests, and the tour guide primarily provided information in English, but it was easy to understand even for someone like me who struggles with English. (There was also guidance in Japanese, but it seemed challenging to provide information in two languages.) The weather was nice, and I was able to take great photos. Using public transportation for sightseeing is cost-effective but can be very tiring. I've been to Kyoto countless times in the past, but it was helpful to have transportation that took us to our destination. I would like to participate in a different course next time.
参加日は外国からの客が大半で、ツアーガイドさんも英語での案内がメインでしたが、英語が苦手な私でも聞きとれる易しい英語で助かりました(日本語での案内もありましたが、2ヶ国語での案内は大変そうでした)天気もよく、いい写真が撮れました。公共交通機関を使っての観光は安上がりですが、非常に疲れるので、京都には過去、数えきれないほど来てますが、目的地まで運んでくれるので助かりました。また、別コースで参加してみたいです。
Dear Kurikkuma,

I'm glad we chose an early morning plan. It was great to visit two places right from the start of the day.
Since Sefa Utaki was far and difficult to reach on our own, the convenient bus tour was perfect.
The bus guide provided continuous commentary about Okinawa during the trip, which was enjoyable.
I had been hesitant about bus tours because they can feel rushed, but this time I realized there are such convenient and fun tours available.
If I have the chance, I would like to use this service again. The guide's commentary added to the enjoyment. Thank you very much.
集合時間が朝早いプランにしてよかったです。
朝からサクサク2箇所巡れてよかったです。
斎場御嶽は遠くて自力で行くのが難しかったので
便利なバスツアーでした。
バスガイドさんが終始道中の沖縄ガイドをしてくれていて楽しかったです。
バスツアーはせわしくて嫌厭していたのですが、今回こんな便利で楽しいツアーもあるんだぁと感じました。
機会があればまた利用してみたいと思います。
バスガイドさんのガイドで楽しさ増します。
ありがとうございました。
I decided to join because the reviews were very good. Throughout the ride, the guide shared a lot of information about Yakushima that I wouldn't have learned just by driving around in a rental car. The next day happened to be the day of the rocket launch, and the guide kindly told us the best spot to view it. As a side note, when I went to that spot to watch the rocket launch the next day, I ran into the guide again. Haha. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yakushima.
口コミがとてもよかったので参加することにしました。乗車中ずっとガイドさんが屋久島のことをいろいろとお話ししてくださり、自分でレンタカーで巡るだけでは知り得なかった情報をたくさん得ることができました。翌日がたまたまロケットの発射日に決まったのですが、一番見やすい場所を親切に教えていただきました。余談ですが、翌日その場所にロケット発射を見に行ったところ、ガイドさんに再会しました。笑。屋久島に行かれる方はこのツアーにぜひ参加して欲しいです。
This is my third trip to Okinawa. This time, I'm traveling alone on a completely free itinerary, but I'm not confident about renting a car. I thought I would stick to sightseeing within the range accessible by the Yui Rail, but I decided to venture a bit into the suburbs. At the Sefa Utaki, I was able to catch a glimpse of the local people's faith in living harmoniously with nature. At Okinawa World, I enjoyed the exciting and powerful performances of the Super Eisa, as well as the natural underground art of the Gyokusendo Cave. There are other attractions as well, but since it was a compact half-day tour, I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't take my time to explore everything.
3度目の沖縄、今回は完全フリーの一人旅だけどレンタカーは自信なし。ゆいレールでまわれる範囲での観光と思っていたけど、ちょっと郊外へもと参加しました。斎場御嶽は地元の方々の自然と共に生きる信仰を垣間見ることができ、沖縄ワールドではスーパーエイサーの楽しくも迫力の演舞や、自然の地下芸術である鍾乳洞の玉泉洞。他にも見所はあるのだけど、半日のコンパクトなツアー設定なのでゆっくり見られなかったのが唯一残念なところでした。
During my trip to Kanazawa, I planned a schedule to explore Noto since I couldn't go last time. However, it was inefficient to get around without a rental car, so I looked for a day bus tour and found one that was very helpful.
I was able to visit key spots in Noto, and whenever I felt sleepy, I could doze off on the bus. With lunch included, I thoroughly enjoyed my day in Noto. Since it was my first time everywhere, it was fun, and the Blue Cave was magical and beautiful. Mitsuke Island was nice to visit up close during low tide, which felt great. The guide's announcements were also very good.
If time permitted, I would have been even happier if there had been a visit to a shrine in Noto included in the tour.
金沢旅で、前回能登に行けなかったので今回は能登を回るスケジュールを考えましたが、レンタカー無しで周るには効率悪く、日帰りバスツアーは無いかと探してお世話になりました。
能登らしいピンポイントは周れて、眠くなったらバスでうとうと出来てランチ付きで、能登1日を満喫出来ました。
何処も初めてですから楽しかったのと、青の洞窟は幻想的で美しく、見附島は引き潮で近くまで行けて気持ち良かったです。
ガイドさんのアナウンスサポートも良かったです。
時間が許せるなら、能登の神社が一社入っていたらもっと嬉しかったです。
We are a couple born and raised in Osaka, but we moved to the Kanto region after getting married in our 20s. Even though we should know Osaka well, it has changed so much that we invited a friend who still lives there to explore the city together. Unfortunately, it rained, so we couldn't enjoy the panoramic sightseeing, but our guide was very articulate, and we had a meaningful time. Next time, we would like to try a different route.
大阪生まれの大阪育ちの夫婦ですが、20代で結婚を機に関東へ転居。
知っているはずの大阪も様変わりしているので、今回大阪在住の友人を誘い大阪観光をしました。
あいにくの雨でパノラマ観光とはいかなかったのですがとてもお話の上手なガイドさんで有意義な時間を過ごせました。
次回は別ルートにも乗ってみたいと思っています。
I was on a business trip, but I decided to take an earlier Shinkansen and do some sightseeing for about an hour. I wasn't sure where the platform was, but I asked someone nearby and got to the station right away. There were a lot of foreigners, which added to the tourist vibe, and the guide's information was easy to understand! I became a bit more familiar with Osaka, which I always visit. The bus and the weather were both comfortable.
出張でしたが新幹線を少し早めにして1時間ほど観光してみました。
乗り場がわからなかったのですがその辺の人に聞いてすぐ駅から着きました。
外人さんだらけでしたが、それもまた観光客気分でガイドさんの情報もわかりやすかったです!
いつも行く大阪に少し詳しくなれました。
バスも天気も快適でした。
The bus tour in snowy Hokkaido was fantastic.
I was able to experience the snow up close.
The lunch was delicious as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed the recommended gourmet options from the guide, and it was a very satisfying tour.
Thank you very much!
雪のある北海道はバスツアーが最高でした。
大丈夫に触れる事ができました。
昼食も美味しかったです。
ガイドさんオススメグルメも堪能でき大満足のツアーでした。
ありがとうございました
We participated with our family of four in mid-March. Although the weather was unfortunate, the guide's explanations were very good, and the conversations in the vehicle were enjoyable and created a friendly atmosphere. Also, at Yakusugi Land, the walk in the heavy rain was tough, but the guide provided thorough explanations even in those conditions. The price, including lunch, is reasonable, and we had a great time!
3月中旬に家族4人で参加しました。
あいにくの天気でしたがガイドさんのご説明がとてもよく、
車内での話も楽しく和やかな雰囲気でした。
また、ヤクスギランドでは大雨での散歩は大変でしたが、
ガイドさんもそんな中しっかり説明をしてくださいました。
昼食付きでこの値段はお手頃で満喫できます!
On my first trip to Yakushima, I found out about the Jomon Sugi tour while making a reservation with VELTRA, and I was curious, so I also made a reservation with Katagiri. The interior was very clean and had a great atmosphere. When I arrived and said my name, they guided me right away! Both the appetizer and the hitsumabushi were incredibly delicious ☺︎ The bonito dashi was the best! The pasta and other menu items also looked delicious, and I was very interested in them! I definitely want to visit again when I go back to Yakushima (*^▽^*) Thank you very much ♡
初の屋久島旅行、でベルトラさんで縄文杉ツアーを予約した際に知り、気になったのでかたぎりさんも予約させてもらいました。
店内もとてもキレイで雰囲気が良かったです。
伺って名前を言ったらすぐに案内して下さりました!
前菜もひつまぶしもとっても美味しかったです☺︎
あごだしが最高でした♪
パスタなど他のメニューも美味しそうでとても気になりましたー!また屋久島に行った際はぜひ行きたいと思います(*^▽^*)
ありがとうございました♡
It was convenient that there was a shuttle service to the hotel since I was traveling with children. The tour mixed customers who booked directly with those from major travel agencies, but we were able to participate without confusion thanks to color-coded stickers. I was worried about getting seasick during the nearly one-hour boat ride from Ishigaki to Iriomote Island, but there were designated seats for those prone to motion sickness, and I managed to avoid feeling sick. We could also choose the bus time back to the hotel, which felt like a free plan with transportation and meals included. I enjoyed the stories from the bus driver and guide, as well as the boatman during the mangrove tour.
The only downside was that the shuttle service from the hotel to the port was quite careless; mispronouncing names was common, the driving was rough like being in a local acquaintance's car, and during the pickup, they almost left without confirming the customers. It felt a bit off.
子連れで参加したので、ホテルまで送迎があったのは楽でした。
ツアーは、直接申し込んだお客さんと大手旅行会社のツアーのお客さんと混載でしたが、色分けしたシールなどで間違う事なく参加できました。
石垣から西表島までの1時間弱の船酔いが心配でしたが、船酔いしやすい人向けのシートなども示してあって酔わずに終われました。
帰りのホテルまでのバスの時間も選べて、フリープランに移動と食事のついたイメージです。
バスの運転手さん兼ガイドさんや、マングローブ下りの船頭さんのお話など楽しく過ごせました。
一点だけ残念だったのは、ホテルから港までの送迎がかなり雑で、名前の読み間違えは当たり前、運転も地元の知り合いの車に乗せられたような荒さ、行きのピックアップではお客さんを確認せずに出発しようとしたり、ちょっと…な感じでした。

The ox cart in Taketomi Town was quite busy, so I should have chosen the bus tour, but overall, the weather was nice and it was a good trip.
竹富町の牛車が慌ただしかったので、バス観光を選択するべきだったが、全体的には天気も良くいい旅でした。
The bus roll call on Taketomi Island was the worst! I almost got left behind! I managed to catch the last boat, but...
After that, it was the best memory.
竹富島のバスの点呼が最悪!
置いて行かれる始末!
なんとか最終の船に間に合ったけど…
後は最高の思い出です。
We were able to efficiently visit three islands. My grandchildren were very happy. It would have been nice to have a bit more time to explore Yufu Island and Taketomi Island.
効率よく3島巡りができました。
孫たちも大変喜んでいました。
由布島 竹富島もう少し観光する時間があったら良かったです
The tour duration is on the longer side, but the sightseeing trip from Fukuoka to Yamaguchi Prefecture, crossing the Kanmon Straits, is fantastic. There are also appropriate breaks at drive-ins.
As for improvements, I would like a 90-minute lunch break at Karato Market and Akama Shrine. Conversely, I don't think we need 60 minutes at Motonosumi Shrine. I would prefer 30 minutes at Tsunoshima Bridge.
I look forward to the time allocation next time. Thank you to the driver for the long hours.
ツアーの所要時間は長めだが、福岡から山口県まで関門海峡を渡っての観光地巡りは最高です。
適度にドライブインでの休憩もあります。
改善点としては唐戸市場&赤間神宮での昼食タイムは90分は欲しい。逆にその分元隅神社は60分もいらない場所です。角島大橋は30分欲しいかな。
時間配分次回に期待してます。
ドライバーの方長時間ありがとうございました。
I experienced the Rainbow Bridge course that departs at 4:30 PM! Just before arrival, I was on the verge of freezing, but I became so engrossed in the photo opportunities along the way that I forgot about the cold. Above all, the guide's gentle voice and good tempo combined with the flowing scenery made it very enjoyable. It was a refreshing bus tour that cut through the wind, so I would like to use it again when I visit Tokyo. Since there is a temperature difference in the evening, it's best to be well-prepared for the cold.
16時半出発のレインボーブリッジコースを体験しました!
到着間際は寒さで限界ギリギリでしたが、途中途中のシャッターチャンスに寒さを忘れる程夢中になりました。
なんと言っても、ガイドさんの優しい声と、テンポの良さが、流れる景色と重なりとても楽しかったです。
風を切り走る爽快なバスツアーでしたので、東京に行った際はまた利用したいと思います。
夕方からは寒暖の差があるので、寒さ対策はしっかりした方がいいです。
We participated as a couple. We were worried about the weather for our late March trip, but it turned out to be quite nice, with plenty of sunshine and warm weather. During our stroll around Kabira Bay, the sunlight made for great photos. The male tour guide's talk and his performance on the sanshin were also enjoyable! It was a fun time chatting with the other people we spent time with.
夫婦2人で参加。
3月下旬の参加で、お天気が心配だったけれど紫外線たっぷりの暑汗ばむくらいのお天気でまずまず…。
川平湾散策の時も陽射しあり写真も映えました。
男性の添乗員さんのトークと三線も良かったです!
同じ時間を過ごした方々との会話も楽しい時間でした。
