All Reviews for Bus Tours

Fushimi Inari Taisha and Arashiyama were great as it was my first time visiting. Kinkaku-ji is always moving no matter how many times I go. It was disappointing that Kiyomizu-dera had scaffolding set up on the stage due to renovation work. It was nice that lunch and admission fees were included. One downside was that I didn't expect there would be train transfers during the tour, so I had to walk with an umbrella and my luggage, which was a bit challenging. If I had known, I would have left my luggage at the hotel. Lastly, the tour guide who accompanied us that day was a wonderful person, making it a fun and memorable tour.

　伏見稲荷大社と嵐山は初めての観光だったので良かったです。
　金閣寺は何回行っても感動します。
　清水寺は改築工事のため清水の舞台に足場が組んであったのが残念でした。
　昼食、拝観料込みと言うのも良かったです。
　一つ残念だったのは、ツアーで電車移動があるとは思っていなかったので傘を差して荷物を待って歩かなくてはならなっかったのがちょっと大変でした。
知っていればホテルに荷物を預けたのですが。
　最後に当日同行していただいた添乗員さんが大変良い方だったので楽しく思い出に残るツアーとなりました。

The weather was nice, and overall it was a wonderfully meaningful trip. However, it would have been better if we could have taken the bus directly to the dinner cruise at Naha Port. The Emerald Beach was simply amazing. Thank you!

お天気も良く全体的に最高に有意義な旅行でした。ただ最後のディナークルーズの那覇埠頭への移動がバスでそのまま行けたらもっと良かったです。
なんと言ってもエメラルドビーチは素晴らしかった。
ありがとうございました！

I participated in the tour of Masahiro Sake Brewery and the Gangala Valley. At Masahiro Sake Brewery, I was able to taste various strengths of awamori and find the one that suited my taste! Additionally, you can also sample umeshu and vinegar, so even those who are not fond of awamori can join in.

Moreover, I was able to participate in the Gangala Valley tour for 2,200 yen instead of the usual 2,500 yen because I purchased the ticket through a bus company at the last minute! During the tour, there were many mystical spots, and I was particularly amazed by the impressive banyan tree, known as the "moving tree." I highly recommend taking a commemorative photo in front of the large banyan tree when you join the tour!

【まさひろ酒造見学＋ガンガラーの谷】
ツアーに参加しました。
まさひろ酒造見学は、様々な度数の泡盛を試飲させて頂き、自身の好みに合った泡盛を見つける事が出来ました！
また、泡盛だけではなく、梅酒や酢なども試飲出来る為、泡盛が苦手な方でも参加出来ます♪
また、急遽、ガンがラーの谷ツアーにバス会社を経由してチケットを購入した為に、
通常2500円の所を2200円で参加する事が出来ました！ツアー中、神秘的な箇所が多く、中でも動く木と言われているガジュマル木の迫力に驚きました！
是非、ツアーに参加された際には、大きなガジュマルの木の前で記念撮影する事をお薦めします。

We were given the option to pre-order Okinawan soba on the bus ahead of the stop at Okashi Goten. We chose not to order as we wanted to look at other options. When we arrived, the pre-ordered food was ready on the tables. We only had 35 minutes at this stop and as the restaurant was busy we didn’t risk ordering food.

Churaumi Aquarium is lovely and you could easily spend a full day there. I recommend checking the times for the planetarium as we were sad to miss this!

I was most excited for Pineapple Park and had assumed that despite the pineapple cart ticket not being included in the tour, we would still have the opportunity to do it out of our own pocket. This is not the case. Instead we were given a ticket for the “shopping route” which meant we didn’t see ANY of the park and instead spent the 30 minutes walking through a big long gift shop. There was free wine samples but I could’ve done with a full glass after this long day.

The course included Masahiro Sake Brewery and Okinawa World. At Masahiro Sake Brewery, I was able to taste moromi vinegar and awamori, and I enjoyed it even in a short amount of time. The moment I entered the building, the aroma of awamori was amazing.

At Okinawa World, the limestone cave was very beautiful and magical. Above all, I was impressed by the power and high quality of the Eisa performance. The bus guide was a person named Nakama, who mentioned that they were inexperienced, but they were so energetic and cheerful that it didn't feel that way at all, and they made the tour even more enjoyable. Thank you!

まさひろ酒造とおきなわワールドのコースでした。
まさひろ酒造ではもろみ酢や泡盛の試飲ができ、短い時間の中でも楽しむことができました。館内に入った瞬間から泡盛の香りがすごかったです。
おきなわワールドでは、鍾乳洞がとてもきれいで幻想的でした。何よりエーサーの迫力とクオリティの高さに感動しました。
バスガイドさんはナカマさん？という方で、経験が浅いと仰っていましたが、そんなふうには感じないくらいとても元気で明るくて、ツアーをより楽しませていただきました。ありがとうございました！

My husband & I ENJOYED this trip so much. At first we were very nervous about purchasing this trip due to the fact that it had a special “review rebate” but it turned out to exceed our expectations.

This trip wouldn’t have been the same without June! He was an amazing tour guide. Being in a different country can be nervous but he explained the culture in a way that you will be able to understand! We got to visit all of the popular destinations here in Kyoto without worrying about calling a taxi, time or even admission costs. June took care of everything!

It was easy since the bus took us around everywhere! The whale shark at the aquarium got us super excited as a family! It was a shame we didn't have enough time to explore the outdoor area much ( ; ; ) Ryukyu Village was a cozy place where we could relax and feel at home! The village idol, a 99-year-old grandma, was so cute! She gave us a lot of energy ^ - ^

バスであちこち連れてってくれるので楽チンでした！
水族館のジンベイザメは親子でテンションMAXなりました！時間がなくて外のエリアはほとんど回れずで残念でした（ ; ; ）
琉球村はこじんまりとしたところでのんびりほっこりできました！
村のアイドル99歳のおばーちゃん！かわいかったです！元気もらいました^ - ^

I thought it would be cold on the open deck bus, but the blankets and hot packs made it just fine! If you have a hat and a mask, you're all set!

It was truly a dazzling display of lights.

オープンデッキバスで寒いかと思ったのですが、ブランケットやホットカイロのサービスで大丈夫❗️
帽子、マスクがあれば完璧‼️

ほんとに光の競宴でした。

Had a great tour with Shiho-san. The meeting point was close to public transport and we left on time, the bus was comfortable. We were lucky to have snow the previous day and Mt Fuji was completely visible, made for beautiful photos. Buffet lunch was plentiful and delicious. The Fuji airways flight simulator was too much fun and would definitely do this again.
The stops along the tour could be a little longer as we arrived back in Tokyo an hour early but overall had a great time.

We booked a tour last minute, but we were lucky to have very good weather for winter and a very clear view of Mount Fuji. We were originally scheduled to go to the 5th station, but previous snow prevented that and we only made it to the 1st station which really isn’t much to speak of. Despite that, we had a great tour and our tour guide, Yoshi, was especially good. I would recommend the experience overall with the caveat that weather may not always be on your side.

It was a pretty nice experience to have opted for this tour. Tour Guide was very friendly and fluent in English. We visited around 5 places with a lot of scenic views of Mount Fuji. Unfortunately, we couldn't go to 5th Station of Mount Fuji because it was closed that day due to snow. But overall it was a fun experience. We also did some origami while we were riding the bus back to Tokyo and the tour guide had some gifts for us too. There was buffet in food and both vegetarian and Halal options were available. However, the halal option just had seafood and vegetarian dishes.

We participated as a couple on December 23rd. There were about six groups participating on a weekday. We were visiting Kanazawa for our honeymoon, and this tour was absolutely fantastic! Thank you very much. Besides us, there were participants from China and Indonesia, so surprisingly, the Japanese were in the minority. The guide was wonderful, accommodating everyone with Japanese, English, and occasionally Chinese. I recommend adding an extra night to visit Shirakawa-go when traveling to Kanazawa. Also, I think it would be great to use this tour. The weather was nice, and we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

12月23日に夫婦2名で参加。
平日で6組程の参加でした。
新婚旅行で金沢を訪れていましたが、今回のツアーはとても最高でした！ありがとうございます。
私達以外は中国とインドネシアの方でまさかの日本人が少数派でしたが、
ガイドさんは日本語と英語、時々中国語など参加者への配慮が行き届き素晴らしい方でした。
金沢へ旅行に行く際は一泊追加して白川郷へ行くことをおすすめします。
そして、是非こちらのツアーを利用されると良いと思います。
お天気も良く、素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

I wasn't expecting much because of the rain, but the illumination was beautiful as it reflected in various ways. At night, the car tail lights and red traffic signals looked like part of the illumination, and since Midosuji is one-way, it made it even more beautiful. Also, the guide was excellent. I would love to experience it again if I have the chance.

雨なので、実はあまり期待していませんでしたが、逆にイルミネーションが乱反射して綺麗でした。
夜は車のテールライトと赤信号迄もがイルミネーションに見えて御堂筋(一方通行)だから余計に綺麗でした。
又、ガイドのおねーさんの案内最高でした。
又機会があれば乗ってみたいです。

We spend 15 days in Japan and took many local tours from many different tour companies, this is by far the best we had.
Jun, our tour guide, a Japanese native with fluent english speaking, very punctual and organized and also gave us enough free time to explore our own. He is very passionate and knowledgeable about Japanese culture and very happy and proudly shared with us along the trip and on every location we visited.
For anyone looking for this tour, I suggest to travel lite, although there's enough time for everyone, we even have a couple with a toddler and stroller within our group at that time, we still manage to finish all location and have spare time. But without our punctual guide, we won't be able to see so many locations in a day.
Very well organized, I will definitely recommend this to everyone.

It was a great day:)) I got lots of information about this wonderful city. I liked all places, especially Fushimi Inari shrine.

Wonderful tour guide, Hiroko, who did everything to see to the needs of the participants. She gave very interesting and informative accounts about Japanese culture and history. She spoke good English. Lunch spread was good and the bus ride was safe and comfortable. The itinerary was also well-planned. The pick up and meeting smoothly done because of Hiroko. Only minus point was that a photo of the pick up point included in the website would have made it easier for participants to know where to wait. A sign posted at the pick up point will also be helpful. Would highly recommend the tour

The trip was well-organised and Hiro, our tour coordinator was very friendly and polite. The fifth station was closed due to snowy conditions so we were brought to a village instead where we could still see Mount Fuji. We wished we had the chance to taste the spring water there but we were lagging behind everyone because we had kids with us and needed more time getting around. The tour covered sufficient places which gave us many opportunities to view Mount Fuji. We had lunch in a lovely restaurant with a full view of the mountain. The food was ok. The area around restaurant was really cute and it would be good if we could have additional time there. I understand though as that it was not the focus of the tour. Most of the time was allocated for the ropeway up to view the mountain and the lake cruise which was a very wise decision. We totally ourselves there. Overall, the tour felt rushed especially so if you have kids with you but understandable due to time constraints.

After work, I took the two-story rooftop bus departing from Osaka Station at 19:20 along Midosuji to Namba. It was my first time seeing the illuminations from above while even riding on the highway. My colleagues, who often hang out in Osaka, really enjoyed it too. I thought the seats were unreserved, but it was nice to have assigned seating. I initially thought 45 minutes might be short, but it turned out to be just right; any longer would have been a bit too cold. I was impressed that there were hand warmers and blankets provided at the seats. The Japanese guide's commentary was very good, but since it was a rooftop bus, it was a little hard to hear at times. It was a great value, and I felt like a tourist, which was very refreshing. I would love to participate in another bus tour.

仕事帰り大阪駅１９：２０発の２階建てのルーフトップバスで御堂筋を難波まで、そのあとなんと高速道路にものって、上からイルミネーションを見るなんて初めてでした。普段から大阪でよく遊ぶ同僚もとっても楽しんでいました。席は自由席と思っていましたがちゃんと指定されていてよかったです。時間も45分では短いかなと思ったけど、あれ以上だとちょっと寒すぎてちょうど良かったです。座席にはカイロやひざ掛けが用意されていて感激しました。日本語ガイドさんのお話しもとても良かったですがルーフトップなのでちょっとだけ声が聞き取りにくかったです。コスパもいいし観光客気分でとっても新鮮でした。また別のバスツアーにも参加したいです。

We participated as a family of four. The water buffalo cart (with island songs) and round-trip ferry were great value, and we are grateful for the friendly service. It was our first time in Ishigaki Island, and it became a wonderful memory. I definitely want to recommend this to everyone.

家族4人で参加しました。水牛車(島唄付き)と往復フェリー込みでコスパに優れ、親切な対応に感謝しております。初めての石垣島、良い思い出になりました。是非皆さんにお勧めしたいです。

I used it again this year, following last year. I would like to make it a year-end tradition. Thank you very much. The loan of knee blankets and the hot pack service were very helpful.

昨年に続き、今年も利用しました。
年末の恒例にしたいくらいです。
ありがとうございました。
膝掛けの貸し出しや、カイロのサービスはとても助かりました。

I participated in a bus tour of Okinawa World and Shurijo Castle in the southern part of Okinawa. We visited Shurijo Castle early in the morning when there were fewer people. It was wonderful to stroll through the natural scenery surrounded by tropical forests in the fresh air. The walking path is made of stone pavement, and it can be slippery when the weather is clear. While you can borrow shoes, I think it's better to wear non-slip, comfortable shoes.

Okinawa World’s Gyokusendo Cave is said to be one of the largest limestone caves in Japan. It was very impressive, mysterious, surprisingly spacious, and beautiful. When I purchased my ticket for Okinawa World, I received a coupon, which allowed me to buy souvenirs at a great price, so I felt lucky.

On the bus, the guide explained things about Okinawa that I didn't know, which I really appreciated. Also, before we arrived at Naha Airport, the guide sang Okinawan folk songs, which was moving and made for a wonderful conclusion to the trip. Thank you very much.

【午前】おきなわワールド＋斎場御嶽の沖縄南部周遊バスツアーに参加しました。
斎場御嶽は朝一の人の少ない時間に行きました。
清らかな空気のなかに南国の森に囲まれ自然な景色を楽しみながら散策するのは最高でした。
散策路は石畳の歩道になり、天気が晴れるときも足元が滑りやすいです。
くつを貸してもらえますが、滑りにくい歩きやすい靴をはいて行った方がいいと思います。

おきなわワールド 玉泉洞は国内最大級の鍾乳洞だそうです。
とても迫力があり、神秘的で驚くほど広く、素敵でした。
おきなわワールド入場券を購入したとき、クーポンをもらい、お得な価格でお土産を買えて、ラッキーでした。

バスの車中にガイドさんは沖縄の知らないことまで説明してくれて本当に良かったと思います。
また、ガイドさんが那覇空港に着く前に沖縄民謡を歌ってくださり、感動的で、良い旅の良い締めになりました。
ありがとうございました。

The price for the water buffalo cart and ferry is surprising! It takes about 10 minutes by bus from the Taketomi Island ferry terminal to reach the center. After that, we enjoyed a ride on the water buffalo cart while listening to the guide's stories and the sounds of the sanshin and singing. I could really feel the guide's love for Taketomi Island, which was nice.

At the end, I was able to take photos of the water buffalo up close, which was very soothing. Everyone was delighted and said they were cute. After that, we had free time and could choose a ferry at 4 PM or 5 PM.

It rained, but it cleared up quickly, and I enjoyed strolling around, seeing the island's plants, vibrant flowers, and butterflies. At Kaiji Beach, I felt liberated from everyday life and was enchanted by the cobalt blue sea. I definitely want to stay next time! Thank you very much!

水牛車とフェリーでこの価格は驚き‼️
竹富島フェリー乗り場からバスで約10分で中心地へ到着。その後水牛車に乗ってガイドさんの話や三線と歌を楽しむ。ガイドさんの竹富島愛が所々に感じ良かったです
最後に水牛の写真もとても近くで撮らせて貰い癒されました。皆、可愛いと大喜びでした。
その後は自由行動で16時か17時のフェリーを選び自由行動。
雨が降ったがすぐ晴れて島の植物、鮮やかな花、蝶を見て散策し、カイジ浜では日常から解放されコバルトブルーの海の色に酔いしれました。次回は是非とも宿泊したいです！
本当に有難うございました。

I recommend this because we were able to efficiently visit various attractions, and since we traveled by bus, we could take a break even when we got tired! In Kyoto, there are many transfers between buses and trains, but with the bus, there was no hassle. The tofu dishes for lunch were also delicious!

色々な見所を効率よく周れたのと、バス移動なので疲れても一息つけるのでオススメです！
京都はバスも電車も乗り換えが多いが、バスなので煩わしさがなかった。
昼御飯の豆腐料理も美味しかった！

It was a bright sunny day throughout. Immediately after the bus started, the tour guide announced that we can not get into the 5th Level......it was predetermined decision not to take to the high level just by giving bluff excuse of bad weather.
We also missed the cruise bcze the coordinator went with some tourists to an other destination.

We didn’t take Foods but other passengers complained about insufficient quantities of foods served to them.

Moreover this tour is not at all recommend.

Nice njoyble journey in double decker bus at Tokyo.......had fun

I visited Okinawa for the first time. I was able to efficiently enjoy the sightseeing spots I wanted to visit in just one day. On the bus, I could listen to the guide's detailed stories about Okinawa. Although there were some rushed moments due to the short stay, the inclusion of entrance tickets made this plan satisfying for the price and efficiency. I highly recommend it!

初めて沖縄を訪れました。
行ってみたい観光スポットを一日で効率良く楽しむ事ができました。バスの中ではガイドさんの沖縄の詳しい話しを聞くことも出来て、
滞在時間が少なく慌しい所もありますが、入場券も付いていて、この価格、効率の良さは満足できるプランでした。オススメです！

I visited two places: "Saijō-ō-take" and "Ganggala Valley."

Saijō-ō-take has poor footing, with many stairs and slopes, and unfortunately, it was pouring rain during my visit. A raincoat and non-slip shoes are essential. I was barely able to walk, and it was far from an enjoyable experience of this ancient sacred site. Given the weather, there's nothing that can be done about it.

At Ganggala Valley, the rain had lightened up, the footing wasn't extremely bad, and we had a dedicated guide for this location, which allowed us to fully enjoy Okinawa's nature. The bus guide shared various knowledge about Okinawa, including the Okinawan dialect, making for an engaging explanation. I got off at Naha Airport early in the afternoon and headed straight home. It was a good schedule for making effective use of time.

「斎場御嶽」「ガンガラーの谷」２か所を回りました。
斎場御嶽は足場が悪く、階段や坂道も多いのですが、訪れた時間帯はなんと大雨。レインコートと滑りにくい靴は必須です。自分は歩くのが精いっぱいで、いにしえの聖地を堪能するには程遠い体験となってしまいました。天気のことなので、こればかりは致し方ありません。
ガンガラーの谷は雨が小降りになったことと、足場が極端に悪いわけではないこと、さらにはこの場所専属のガイドさんがついていることで、沖縄の自然を十分楽しむことができました。
バスのガイドさんは沖縄方言をはじめ、さまざまな沖縄に関する知識を披露してくれ、聞きごたえのある説明でした。午後早い時間に那覇空港で下車、そのまま帰途に就きました。時間を有効に活用するにはよいスケジュールでした。

My family and I really enjoyed this well organised tour, they were very informative. We love all the view points Mt Fuji, it was simply breathtaking. Also, our tour guide Hiro was very helpful and attentive. It was very cloudy at the start of the tour but once we arrived at the fifth station of Mt Fuji the clouds cleared up, so we were lucky enough to get some good photos of Mt Fuji. Highly recommend this tour to families!

It was a sightseeing tour by taxi, and the driver's explanations were easy to understand, which made my wife satisfied. The fare was reasonable, and we were able to fully enjoy Yakushima. We will use this service again when we visit Yakushima next time.

タクシ－での観光でした、ドライバ－さんの説明が分かりやすく妻も満足していました、料金も手ごろで屋久島を堪能出来ました、、再度、屋久島に行く時は利用します。

From the moment the tour started at the love statue in Shinjuku, the service and staff was top notch and very organized.

The bus itself was very clean and comfortable seating. Plenty of leg room for myself at 6’3” which made the ride up to Mt Fuji easy.

The tour guide was the best I have ever had the pleasure to experience. Hope fully you also get Levin as your guide. Incredible sense of humor, knowledge, and perfect English. Learned so much during the tour.

We were lucky enough to see Mt Fuji on one of the clearest days of the year and all the stops provided excellent view points.

The buffet at Ninja village was top notch and was surprised how good it was for a day tour. I especially enjoyed the Japanese curry and rice.

We were also able to reach stage 5 of the mountain which is as high as the vehicles can go. The view from here was breathtaking. Next time I come to Japan I will be sure to book again with this company if they also offer climbing/ hiking tours.

On the decent from stage 5, we were able to be provided the boat cruise on one of the 5 lakes of mt Fuji. Once again, highly organized and great views of the Mountain. Probably over 100 pictures taken over the tour.


I give the company 10/10 and will recommend to others.
