All Reviews for Bus Tours

As a beginner in Sapporo, I struggled to find the meeting place but managed to arrive. I showed my voucher to the staff and received a ticket with my bus seat number. The seats were assigned in advance.

The sightseeing guide provided multilingual broadcasts through earphones. Each bus seat was equipped with a power outlet or USB port, allowing for charging.

At the Okurayama Jump Stadium, the Olympic Museum was closed, and without taking the lift, there was nothing to do for an hour (the café was open). It seemed like 30 minutes would be enough for going up and down. The view from the top was very beautiful.

At Shiroi Koibito Park, if I had more time, I could have done a factory tour, but with only 30 minutes, I could only see the outdoor mechanical clock and do some shopping inside before time was up. I didn’t have anything to buy, so I had plenty of time. The building and the mechanical clock are cute.

At Sapporo's Outer Market, I was worried about it getting crowded and not being able to eat, so I went shopping after my meal. Since it was a weekday, it wasn't too crowded, and I was able to take my time looking around after eating.

I’m not sure about the time allocation for each place, but it was very good for efficiently visiting tourist spots around Sapporo. I wanted to join another tour in the evening, so it turned out to be a very fulfilling half day.

札幌初心者の私は、集合場所探しに苦労しましたがなんとか到着。
窓口の方にバウチャーを見せて、バスの座席が書かれたチケットをもらう。座席は事前に決まっていました。

観光案内はイヤホンをつけながら多言語放送。バスの各席にコンセント？USB？が備え付けてあり、充電できる仕様でした。

大倉山ジャンプ競技場は、オリンピックミュージアムが休館中であり、リフトに乗らなければ1時間何もすることがありません。(カフェはやってました)上り下りでも30分くらいで足りそうな感じでした。頂上からの景色はとても綺麗です。

白い恋人パークは、時間があれば工場見学などできたと思いますが、30分なので外のからくり時計と中のお店でショッピングくらいで時間が来ます。私は買うものがなかったので、時間は十分でした。建物とからくり時計がかわいいです。

札幌場外市場は、混んで食事が食べられなくなるのが怖かったので、食事→買い物の順で回りました。平日だったのでそれほど混んでおらず、食後もゆっくり見て回れました。

それぞれの時間配分はわかりませんが、札幌近郊の観光地を効率よく回るにはとても良かったです。夕方から別なツアーに参加したかったので、とても充実した半日になりました。

I participated with my child! I'm sure we wouldn't have been able to visit so many spots in just one day if we had rented a car! I'm very satisfied! Thank you!

子供と参加させていただきました！
きっとレンタカーだと1日でこんなにたくさんのスポットを回ることはできなかったと思います！大満足です！ありがとうございました！

Having a guide and an audio guide on the bus made the long travel time enjoyable without getting bored. I actually didn't have high expectations for lunch, but it turned out to be better and tastier than I thought. I enjoyed both Lake Shikotsu and Lake Toya, and I was able to explore Mount Usu as well. The rest stop at Mushroom Kingdom was also fun (I had mushroom soup and tempura, etc.), making for a satisfying day. On the way back, we could choose our drop-off location, which allowed us to select a convenient spot for evening activities. The guide was very polite, and overall, it was a great experience.

ガイドさんが付くのとバス車内では案内ガイド？が付いていて長い移動時間も飽きる事なく楽しめました。
実は お昼は期待して居なかったのですが思っていたよりも良かったのと美味しかったです。
支笏湖も洞爺湖も楽しめ、有珠山散策？も出来、途中立ち寄る休憩場所の きのこ王国でも楽しめ(きのこ汁や天ぷら等食べました)満足の1日でした。
帰りは降車場所を決められるので夜の行動に良い場所を選択出来、とても便利でした。
ガイドさんは とても丁寧だったしトータルして とても良かったです。

I was looking for a plan for Shirakawa-go and discovered this one. Choosing this was definitely the right decision. Shirakawa-go was nice, but considering the transportation costs from Takayama, it felt a bit expensive for what you get. This plan allowed me to see both Ainokura and Shirakawa-go, and since lunch wasn't included, it was perfect for someone like me who wanted to enjoy walking around and trying different foods. The water pudding, dumplings, and gohei mochi were delicious.

白川郷のプランを探していてこちらを発見。こちらにして大正解でした。白川郷も良かったのですが見所が高山からの交通費を考えると少なく割高。相倉と白川郷を両方見れて、ランチが含まれいない為、自由に食べ歩きをしたい私にはこのプランはベストでした。水プリン、お団子、五平餅が美味しかったです。

Planning a trip to the remote islands by yourself is quite difficult, so it was great to visit three islands all at once! I was worried about lunch after reading other reviews, but I was satisfied with the meal provided on the tour.

The mangroves on Iriomote Island are amazing, and if you're considering a remote island tour from Ishigaki Island, I definitely think you should see them at least once. It was cloudy, very windy, and cold, but the early morning tour was better because the river wasn't rough, and we could see a lot of fish. (If you participate in winter, it's a good idea to bring a light down jacket or something similar, even if it becomes extra luggage.)

The optional water buffalo cart tour on Taketomi Island was very relaxing and enjoyable! If you go, be sure to ride and listen to the guide's songs and stories! The bus tour was also helpful since it was a cold day with bad weather.

I thought it would be nice if we could choose whether to take photos with the water buffalo. (I had already purchased photos with the water buffalo on Yubu Island.) I expected to have a bit more free time on Taketomi Island, so the bus to the port was a little early, and I couldn't shop or do anything, which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, the guidance was smooth, and the guides were friendly, making it a very comfortable tour, so I was very satisfied.

自分で離島巡りを計画するのはかなり難しいので、一気に三島をまわれてよかったです！
お昼ご飯は他のクチコミを見て心配してましたが、ツアーのご飯としては満足できました。

西表島のマングローブは素晴らしく石垣島からの離島ツアーを考えているならぜひ一度は見た方がいいと思います。
曇りでとても風が強く寒かったですが、朝早い時間のツアーの方が川が荒れてなくて魚もたくさん見れました。（冬に参加する場合荷物になったとしても薄めのダウン等は持っておいた方がいいです）



竹富島のオプションの水牛車観光はのんびりできてとてもよかったです！！
行ったら是非乗ってガイドさんの歌とお話を聞いてください！
バスのツアーも天気が悪く寒い日だったので助かりました。

水牛の写真のは撮るかどうか選ばせていただけるといいかな？と思いました。（由布島で水牛との写真を購入してた為)
竹富島でもう少し自由時間があると思っていたので港までのバスが少し早く、買い物したりできなくバタバタしたのが残念でした。

全体としては案内もスムーズでガイドさんたちの感じも良くとっても快適なツアーだったので大満足です。

I thought it might be better to go to Akiyoshido Cave rather than Karato Market. Since we had plenty of time at each spot, it was nice to take our time and enjoy. I imagine Motonosumi Shrine and Tsunoshima would be beautiful on a sunny day. It was a pity it was cloudy.

唐戸市場に行くより、秋芳洞に行ったほうがいいのではないかと思いました。各スポットで十分に時間があったので、ゆっくり見れていいです。元乃隅神社や角島は晴れてるときれいだろうな。曇りだったので残念です。

I thought this was the best tour for those who do not have a car in Okinawa, considering the time aspect as well. Since it is a World Heritage tour, the guide's explanations were very helpful.

沖縄で車を持っていない人には、時間的なことを含めて、最適なツアーと思いました。
世界遺産のツアーなので、添乗員さんの説明もとても参考になりました。

Shirakawa-go was also wonderful, covered in snow from Gokayama, creating a silver world. The guide was experienced, and their interesting explanations were just right, making for a pleasant experience.

白川郷も五箇山の雪に覆われ銀世界で素晴らしかった。ガイドの方もベテランで話も面白く過不足無い説明は気持ちが良かったです。

The explanation about the mangroves was clear and interesting.
The water buffalo cart was strong and comfortable even with a large number of people.
The boat ride was spacious and comfortable, and it swayed less than I expected.
I would definitely like to participate if I have the opportunity.

マングローブでの説明がわかりやすくて面白い
水牛車に大人数が乗っても力強くて快適
船の移動が大型で快適で思ったより揺れが小さかった
機会があればぜひ参加したい

I was worried about my elderly mother using a wheelchair and the potential inconvenience it might cause to others when getting on and off the bus, boarding and disembarking from the boat, and using the water buffalo cart. However, the boat staff, the female bus driver, and the elderly man with the water buffalo cart were all very kind and always offered their assistance. My mother was very happy, and it turned out to be a wonderful trip. Thank you very much for your help.

母が高齢で車椅子利用でバスの乗り降り、ボートの乗下船、水牛車と他の方に迷惑をかける心配がありましたが、ボートのスタッフ、バスの女性ドライバー、水牛車のお爺と皆さんとても親切で、いつも手を差し伸べてくれました。母もとても喜び楽しい旅行となりました。お世話になり、本当に有難うございました。

On February 11th, I participated in my first trip to Kanazawa with guide Yamazaki and driver Matsushita. It was a bit disappointing that it was too warm to see the heavy snowfall I had never experienced before, but I had a wonderful time. The guide and driver provided great insights not only about Shirakawa-go but also about local topics and delicious food in Kanazawa, which made the rest of my trip very rewarding. The guide was very approachable and natural. The driver was very safe in his driving. Thank you very much. I will definitely use your services again when I visit Kanazawa.

2月11日、初めての金沢旅行の初日にガイド山崎さん、ドライバー松下さんで参加。この日暖かすぎて今まで見たことのない豪雪が見れなかったのは残念でしたが、とても素敵な時間を過ごせました。ガイドさんや休憩時のドライバーさんの、白川郷だけでなく、金沢の身近な話題や美味しい食べ物等の紹介がとても参考になり、その後の旅行を大変実のあるものにしてくれました。ガイドさんが自然体で親しみを持てました。ドライバーさん、とても安全運転でした。
ありがとうございます。
また金沢に行く際は利用させていただきます。

Even though it was a tour with strangers, there was someone who couldn't keep time. I fully understand that the guide is also a customer and can't complain, but I would have appreciated a neutral comment.
Shiroi Koibito Park was crowded, and it felt like our stay was too short.
If I have the opportunity to use this service again, I will participate in a full-day tour.

見知らぬ人間のツアーなのに、時間を守れない人がいた。ガイドさんもお客さんだから、文句は言えないのは充分理解はできるけど。当たり障りない一言は欲しかったです。
白い恋人パークが混んでいて、滞在時間が短いように感じました。
今度利用することがあれば、1日ツアーに参加させて頂きます。

I took my 90-year-old grandfather and a 0-year-old child, but we were able to get around easily with all the bus transfers and charter services. It rained, but we had a great time. I don't think we could have managed biking around, so I'm glad we signed up for this tour.

おじいちゃん90歳と0歳の子供を連れて行きましたが、全てバスでの送り迎えや、チャーターで連れて行ってもらい、難なく過ごせました。雨でしたが、とても楽しめました。自転車で周遊するなどは決して出来なかったと思うので、このツアーに申し込んで良かったです。

The bus was very clean and the seats were spacious. We got caught in traffic for over an hour, so if the seats had been cramped, it might have been frustrating, but they were wide enough to stretch my legs, which was a relief.

The tour guide was also polite, making it a good experience.

バスがすごく綺麗で席も広かった。１時間以上の渋滞の巻き込まれたので、狭かったらイライラしたかもしれませんが足を伸ばせるぐらい広かったので助かりました。

添乗員さんも丁寧でいい経験でした。

Manza Beach → Nago Pineapple Park → Kouri Island → Warumi Bridge → Churaumi Aquarium → Okashi Goten. The price including the entrance ticket was incredibly reasonable. The light snacks provided were delicious as well. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to stay at Churaumi Aquarium for another 30 minutes (laughs). The comfortable bus ride and the guide's explanations were easy to understand and very informative. I want to recommend this to my friends and acquaintances, and if I have the chance to go again, I will definitely use this service.

万座毛→名護パイナップルパーク→古宇利島→ワルミ大橋→
美ら海水族館→御菓子御殿と巡っていただき入園券込みで
この金額はお得すぎました。軽食まで出てなおかつ美味しかったですし。
欲を言えば美ら海水族館にあと30分は居たかった(笑)
快適なバスの乗り心地とガイドさんの説明は聞きやすくためになりました。
友達や知り合いにオススメしたいしまた行く機会があればぜひ利用します。

Since it was a holiday Saturday, the highway was congested with frequent accidents, and we got caught in traffic, which delayed our schedule. However, thanks to the quick thinking of our experienced driver and our trilingual guide, we were able to reverse the original route from Hida Takayama to Shirakawa-go. As a result, we were able to visit both places without reducing our stay time.

I was very satisfied with the personalities of both the guide and the driver. Thank you very much.

祝日の土曜だったので高速道路が混雑しており、事故多発、渋滞に巻き込まれ、予定通りに進まなかったのですが、ベテランと思われる運転手さんとトリリンガルのガイドさんの機転の効いた判断で　飛騨高山→白川郷　の本来のルートを逆にしてくれました。おかげさまで両方、滞在時間を削る事なく旅を終えました。

ガイドさんと運転手さんのお人柄もとても良かったので大満足です。ありがとうございました。

I wanted to take a little more time to explore Shirakawa-go. The meeting point was hard to find. Since the photo was taken from inside the station showing the taxi stand, it was easy to get confused. I thought it would be better to show a photo near the fountain.

白川郷一箇所でいいからもう少しゆっくりと観光したかった。待ち合わせの場所がわかりにくかった。写真は駅の構内からタクシー乗り場を写していたので間違えるもと。写真を出すなら噴水近くでなければと思った。

We started at 8:30 and were picked up at the hotel at 17:30. The 8 hours included the guide's own driving, continuous commentary during the drive, a wonderful escort and guidance at Yakusugi Land, and enjoyable conversations with us. Including the meal, the participation fee was very reasonable, and the cost performance was excellent. It was a fulfilling day that was much more satisfying than renting a car and exploring on our own. It felt like a live-action version of a movie.

8:30にスタートして17:30にホテルに送迎していただいた8時間、ガイド様ご自身のドライブとドライブ中の切れ目のないガイド、ヤクスギランドでの見事なエスコートとガイド、そして私達との楽しい会話　お食事の内容も含めて今回の参加料はとてもお値打ちがありコストパフォーマンスも充分で、車をレンタルして廻りるより内容が非常に充実して満足できた1日でした。ブラ○○○の実写版でした。

The water buffalo cart driver was really good at explaining things and even sang for us, which was fun. I wish we had more time on the beach during the bus tour; I wanted to play a bit longer.

水牛車のお兄さんが凄く説明が上手で歌も歌ってくれて楽しかったです。
バスツアーは時間がなかったのかもう少し浜辺で遊びたかったです。

The bento from Yubu Island was very delicious. The water buffalo cart was also charming and enjoyable. I think it was better to explore Taketomi Island by bicycle as it allowed for more sightseeing.

由布島のお弁当がとてもおいしかった。水牛車も趣がありよかった。竹富島は自転車の方がいろいろ回れてよかったと思う。

It was a bus tour that stopped at various places. Basically, it seems like the cost was just for the bus. However, I was glad to be taken to places I wouldn't normally go on my own.

The description mentioned there would be a foot bath, but there was none to be found anywhere. Why!?

We had free time for lunch at Lake Toya, but the restaurant right in front of us was fully booked. We ended up walking a bit to find a place to eat.

The next stop, Showa Shinzan, seemed to have many restaurants, and there were attractions like a bear ranch and a ropeway, so I thought it might be better to spend more time there for lunch.

The Ice Festival was really great!

色んな所に寄るバスツアーでした。
基本的にはバス代のみなのかな。でも自分ではなかなか行けないので、色んな所に連れてってもらえて良かったです。
説明書きには足湯があると書いてありましたが、どこにもありませんでした。なぜ！？

洞爺湖で自由昼食でしたが、目の前のレストランは予約でいっぱい。少し歩いてお店を探しました。
その次の昭和新山のがお店沢山ありそうだったし、熊牧場やロープウェイなどあったので、そちらで長く時間を取って昼食のが良いのでは？と思いました。

氷濤祭りがとても良かったです！

このツアーは、白川郷と五箇山を効率的に探索するための完璧な方法です。

ガイドとバスの運転手はとても親切で、あなたを歓迎してくれます。故郷に戻ったような気分になります。

白川郷と五箇山を訪れたいなら、このツアーをお勧めします。

This tour is the perfect way to efficiently explore Shirakawa-go and Gokayama.

The guide and bus driver are very friendly and will make you feel welcome. It feels like you are back in your hometown.

If you want to visit Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, I recommend this tour to you.

I am very happy to participate in this activity. The itinerary is rich. The team leader and participants are very friendly. Even with fewer guests, the company announced that it will continue its activities. There was an administrator who assisted the members and briefed them during the activities. She took care of everyone. I enjoy this tour very much. Thanks to all of you.

この活動に参加すること。 旅程は豊富です。 チームリーダーと参加者はとてもフレンドリーです。 ゲストは減りましたが、同社は活動を継続すると発表しました。 メンバーを支援し、活動中にブリーフィングを行う管理者がいました。 彼女はみんなの世話をしました。 私はこのツアーをとても楽しんでいます。 あなた方全員に感謝します。

I had previously only used Veltra for overseas trips, but this time I used it domestically for the first time, and I was impressed by the reasonable prices and the wonderful guides.

Once again, the hospitality from the guide and driver made for a warm experience. I was concerned about the early morning meeting time and thought I would have breakfast on the bus, but due to COVID-19 measures, food was prohibited while drinks were allowed. I was glad I managed to grab a quick bite at Donq in the station.

While overseas guides usually provide a lot of commentary during the journey, this time it felt more balanced between talking and resting. Personally, I prefer guides who provide more information, but I understand that other guests might want to use the travel time for sleep, so perhaps this was the best approach.

The guide provided specific recommendations for souvenirs and items unique to Shirakawa-go, which I truly appreciated. Everything I bought based on their suggestions was delicious, and I felt grateful for the insights that I wouldn't have known otherwise.

Additionally, the recommended photo spots resulted in some fantastic shots. In Shirakawa-go, I felt fortunate to have permission to drive into the area despite the traffic restrictions due to its status as a World Heritage site, making for a much easier trip.

I plan to continue using Veltra for domestic travel as well.

ベルトラさんでは、これまでに海外での利用のみでしたが、良心的な価格とガイドさんに毎回恵まれて今回初めて国内利用でした。
今回も間違いなくガイドさんと運転手さんのおもてなしの気持ちが伝わる対応に、心温かく過ごすことができました。
朝の集合時間が早くてバスの中での朝食をと思っていましたが、コロナ対策として食は禁で飲はオッケーということでした。駅中のドンクでバタバタ食べておいてよかったと思いました。
海外のガイドさんは道中本当に沢山ガイドをしてくれるのですが、今回は話しと休みと加減をつけてのガイドという印象でした。(個人的にはたくさんガイドして頂ける方が嬉しいのですが、道中は睡眠タイムの他のお客さんもおられるので今回位がベストとなっているのかなと)
お土産のおすすめや、白川郷でしか求められないものなどその地域に特化したものを具体的に教えて頂けました。言われた通りに買うと本当においしいものばかりで、教えて頂かないと知り得ることができなかったなと本当に感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。
あと、写真撮影のおすすめ場所など、言われた通りにすると本当に良いロケーションでの撮影が叶えられました。
白川郷では、世界遺産のため交通規制がある中、中の方まで入車できる許可がとられてあるということで随分と楽な旅をさせて頂けたと感じました。
国内でもベルトラを利用していこうと思いました。

I gifted my parents a trip to Okinawa, but since they are elderly, I thought it would be difficult for them to drive around with a rental car, so I signed them up for this bus tour. It was helpful because they were taken to all the places they wanted to visit.

両親に沖縄旅行をプレゼントしましたが、高齢なのでレンタカーであちこち周るのは大変だと思いこちらのバスツアーに申し込みました。
行きたいところに連れて行ってもらえるので助かりました。

The itinerary was manageable, and I was able to enjoy each stay for a long time in a relaxed manner. I'm glad I was also given plenty of great photo spots!

無理のない行程、一つ一つの滞在時間が長くゆったりとたのしめました。素敵な写真スポットもいっぱい教えてもらえてよかったです!

I participated in the same tour with friends in the fall and really wanted to see the snowy scenery. After the New Year, I decided to go this season and signed up right away. I enjoyed taking photos at the scenic spots and comparing them to the fall views. Although I joined alone, I had a great time.

秋に友達と同じツアーに参加して、ぜひ雪景色を見たいと思っていました。
　年明けにやっぱり今シーズン行こう！と決めて即申し込みしました。
絶景ポイントでの撮影、秋のものと比較して楽しんでいます。
　1人での参加でしたが、十分楽しめました。

The bus tour was very good, and the bus guide was pleasant. I wish there was a one-day sightseeing bus tour in Ishigaki Island.

とても良かったバスガイドさんも感じ良かった
石垣島1日観光バスツアーがあればいいのになぁと思いました

I'm glad I was able to visit various islands. It might be a good idea to think carefully about the season when participating in the tour. I had a great time.

とりあえずいろんな島を回れてよかったです。ツアーに参加する季節はよく考えたほうがいいかもしれません。楽しめました。

It was a convenient and enjoyable tour that takes you around Ishigaki Island and shows you the famous spots. Thanks to the guide's fluent explanations, I learned about the history of Ishigaki Island, stories related to the landmarks, and the wonderful scenery. There were opportunities to view from the car window as well as to walk around, making it truly recommended for first-time visitors to Ishigaki Island. Lunch was included, and it was delicious at a restaurant with a great view, allowing us to enjoy local specialties from Ishigaki and Okinawa. One of the best parts was being able to get off at Ishigaki Airport at the end. Since I participated on the last day of my trip, being dropped off at the airport to catch my flight was a huge help. The guide's chatter, singing, and playing the sanshin were very skilled and created great memories. If I had to say something, it felt a bit rushed at times. There were a few places I wished we could have spent a little more time at. But I understand that it's not possible to see everything.

手軽に石垣島を一周し、名所に連れて行ってくれる楽で、お得な楽しいツアーでした。ガイドさんの流ちょうな説明で石垣島の歴史、名所にまつわるお話、素晴らしい景観について知ることができ、車窓からの見学と実際に歩いて回るところがあり、石垣島に始めて行かれる人には本当におすすめです。ランチもついているのですが、見晴らしもよいお店でおいしく、石垣島、沖縄地方の名物が堪能できました。ありがたかったのは最後に石垣空港で下車できるところ。旅の最終日に参加したのでそのまま帰りの飛行機に乗るために空港下車は大変助かります。ガイドさんのおしゃべりや歌、三線がとても上手でいい思い出になりました。欲を言えば少しせわしない感じがしたかな。ちょっとゆっくりめに見たいところもありました。回り切れないから仕方ないですよね。
