There are various optional tours available on Taketomi Island, but the reason I chose VELTRA is that they offer round-trip transportation to and from the hotel. The tour included a water buffalo cart ride, bicycle rental, and the chance to enjoy Taketomi Island. Especially the water buffalo cart ride was nice because it was just my husband and me along with one other couple, allowing us to ride comfortably. The person who provided the round-trip transportation to the hotel was very friendly and kind, and since we were the only ones on the way there, they shared a lot of local information, which was enjoyable. I'm glad I used their service.
竹富島でのオプショナルツアーはいろいろな旅行会社でありますが、私がVELTRAさんを選んだ理由は、ホテルまでの往復送迎があるからです。ツアー内容は、水牛車・レンタサイクルと竹富島を楽しむことが出来ました。特に水牛車は、たまたま私達夫婦ともう一組だけでしたので、ゆったりと乗車することが出来ました。ホテルまで往復送迎してくださった方はとても楽しく親切で、往路は私達だけでしたので、地元情報などいろいろ教えていただき楽しかったです。利用して良かったです。

I rode all three courses, and it was a very good ticket for efficiently sightseeing in Tokyo. Since I could get off at various stops, I was able to enjoy different places by checking the timetable in advance. I plan to use it again for my next Tokyo sightseeing trip.
3つのコース全て乗車し、効率的に東京観光出来るので、私にとってはとてもよい乗車券でした。
途中下車出来るので、自分が行きたい場所で乗り降り出来るので、予め時刻表を確認する事で、いろいろな場所を楽しむ事が出来ました。
次の東京観光の時にも、利用しようと思います。

I couldn't drive, so it was nice to have someone take me around to various places. It was raining, but I learned a lot of interesting facts like, "Actually, the view is better from this side!" It was a lot of fun. They were kind throughout the trip. The people of Yakushima are all really nice.

The main focus of this trip was to take photos of the kids on Taketomi Island, so we chose a tour that included a bus sightseeing option. It seemed like my daughter was really into searching for star sand. The bus driver was very kind to the children and had a great demeanor. However, the tour itself felt a bit tight on time. We only got off the bus to look for star sand, and the rest was from the window, so we couldn't take many photos. Later, we hurriedly rented bicycles to explore. Since it's a small island, it might have been better to start with a rental cycle course. That's my lack of research...
The water buffalo cart was a huge hit with the family! We could leisurely stroll through the stone-built village just as I had imagined, and the guide's explanations included some humor, which kept the kids engaged. I felt that next time, I would like to stay overnight on Taketomi Island!
今回の旅行のメインが竹富島で子供達の写真を撮る事だったので、バス観光付きのツアーを選択。娘のメインは星の砂探しだったようで夢中になってました。バス観光の運転手さんは子供達にも優しく接してくれてとても感じのよい方でした。ただ、ツアー自体はちょっと時間がタイトかな?下車するのも星の砂だけであとは車窓からなので写真を撮る事は出来ず、後から慌てて自転車借りて走り回りました。小さい島なので最初からレンタルサイクルのコースにすればよかったかも。私のリサーチ不足ですね。。。
水牛車は家族も大喜び!イメージしてた通りの石垣造りの集落をのんびりと散策できるし、ガイドさんの説明も所々に笑いを挟み子供達も退屈しない内容でした。次回は竹富島でゆっくり一泊したいなぁと感じました!!

The guide was talented, and it was an enjoyable tour. The scenery at Kabira Bay was beautiful, and seeing the underwater world from the glass-bottom boat was fascinating. The gradient of blue from the coral reefs was stunning from the Tamatorizaki Observatory. The meals were delicious. However, it was a bit busy, and it was disappointing that there were some places we could only see from the car window.

I have traveled with my mother many times, but this was her first visit to Ishigaki Island, so we participated in this tour. It was very helpful because organizing a schedule on our own with ferry transfers and the water buffalo cart has its limits! The transportation was a lot of fun, with ferries and buses on Iriomote Island, and the cruise was just great.
At the end, on Taketomi Island, she was very happy and moved by the beautiful blue sea. Thank you very much!
母娘旅は何度も行きましたが、石垣島は母は初めてと言う事でこちらのツアーに参加しました。フェリーの乗り継ぎや水牛車など個人でスケジュールを組むのは限界があるのでとても助かりました!移動はフェリーと西表島ではバスにクルーズにとにかく楽しかったです。

The Chinese audio is full of mistakes!!! What the guide is saying is completely different. Can you make an effort to ensure consistency? Customers are paying properly! I was disappointed.
Also, although it was written online that seats could not be specified, when I got on the bus, the seats had already been assigned to someone else. Japanese people were assigned seats at the front, while foreigners were assigned seats at the back! It's unfair. It has nothing to do with the order of arrival!
I absolutely do not recommend this to foreigners!!!!
I will never use it again!
中国語の音声は間違いだらけ!!!ガイドさん話している意味と全然違います。一致するよう、努力してくれるか?お客さんはちゃんとお金を払っているのに!がっかりしました。
また、ネット上で座席が指定できないと書いてのに、バスに乗った時、座席がすでに誰かに指定されました。日本人が先の座席で、外国人は後ろに指定されました!不公平です。到着順番となんの関係もありません!

As expected, it was 34 degrees and sunny in Okinawa.
It was hot and dazzling.
About 15 years ago, I also visited Taketomi Island, but it was cloudy and I couldn't see the sun, so I didn't feel the beauty of the star sand beach at Kaiji Beach very much.
However, this time I was able to see the beautiful beach shining in various colors.
It was tough because of the heat, but it was beautiful!
I'm glad I included the bus tour.
In that heat, riding a bicycle would have been a bit difficult.
This was my second experience with the water buffalo cart.
Handsome Maekun, who is scared of bicycles, froze every time a bicycle came by.
He also froze again because he was feeling uneasy about the poop.
The guide's singing was also great.
The leisurely water buffalo cart tour was enjoyable and had its charm.
After that, we walked to the shop where the staff was making handmade rice balls for the young people.
They looked delicious.
They apologized, saying they could make them because there were extra ingredients, and they couldn't make them for us.
They really looked delicious, and I thought I would love to buy handmade rice balls from the island's grandmas!
At the resting spot, the sleepy kitty didn't move at all (laughs).
In the waiting room for the water buffalo cart tour, I was able to purchase a cute dress, postcards, and island pepper.
Thank you very much!

As mentioned, this was an interesting tour round the centre of Tokyo, with the ability to get on and off the open-topped bus at points of interest.
On the Roppongi/Odaiba route, before Tokyo Teleport, however, there are only three buses per day, meaning you'd need to spend quite a long time at e.g. Roppongi Hills. At or after Tokyo Teleport, the route coincides with the Odaiba-only route, so you can change between buses, meaning the gap between buses is only an hour and a half or so.
It was a strong sunshine/30C day this week, so future travellers are strongly advised to check the weather, and to take hats and sunscreen.

I applied the evening before and received confirmation the morning of the tour. While waiting in the hotel lobby at the meeting time, a driver holding a "regular sightseeing" card appeared and left with only two other people. They didn't call our names or look for us, so I wondered if that was a different tour. Feeling anxious, I consulted the hotel concierge, who confirmed with the tour company that we had indeed been left behind. I'm not sure if the issue was that my application through Veltra wasn't communicated or if it was a mistake on the organizer's side, as there was no explanation given, and the driver didn't apologize (which suggests a communication error?).
I've used Veltra services many times in various countries, but this was my first experience like this. I'm glad it happened in Japan; I think I would have given up if it were overseas.
As for the tour content, it felt just right—not too much, not too little, and it covered all the highlights of Ishigaki. More than the sightseeing spots, the guide was fantastic! Their explanations were rich and easy to understand, and they played the sanshin and sang folk songs along the way, making it a tour where you could really feel the essence of Ishigaki.
前日の夕方に申し込み、当日の朝に確定連絡が来ました。
待ち合わせ時間にホテルのロビーで待っていると、「定期観光」のカードを持った運転手さんが現れ、他の2名だけを連れて発車してしまいました。
我々の名前を呼ぶでも探すでもなかったので、あれは違うツアーなのか?と思いつつ、不安だったのでホテルのコンシェルジュに相談し観光会社に確認したところやはり置いていかれていました。
ベルトラからの申込みが伝わっていなかったのか、主催者側のミスなのか、説明もなかったので良く分かりませんが、運転手さんからの謝罪も特にありませんでした(ということは連絡ミス?)
世界各国でベルトラ経由のサービスを何度も利用していますが、初めての経験でした。これが日本で良かったです。海外なら諦めたと思います。
ツアーの内容は、これ以上でもこれ以下でもないという感じで、石垣の見どころは全て入れた感じでした。観光場所よりも、ガイドさんが素晴らしかった!説明は豊富で分かりやすく、途中三線を演奏したり民謡を歌ったり、バスの中で石垣をたっぷり感じられるツアーでした。

I signed up for this bus tour as a paper driver. It was very efficient as we were able to visit various sightseeing spots on the island, and we also received souvenirs. Having a guide was a great benefit as well.
The roads leading to places like Kankakei and the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village were often narrow, and I don't think I would have been able to reach them by driving myself, so I’m glad I used this service.
I think it would be even more convenient if we could purchase tickets for places like the Monkey Park at the time of booking.

I understood, but it was a bit disappointing that each stop in Mishima was quite short. I could hardly see anything on Yufu Island.
On Taketomi Island, I went cycling, and the weather was great, which made it perfect. It's ideal for quickly getting a feel for the island's atmosphere, and I think it's convenient without worrying about transportation. However, next time, I would like to explore each island a bit more thoroughly.
わかってはいましたが、三島巡るため、やはりひとつひとつが短時間なのが、少し残念でした。特に由布島は、ほとんど見ることができなかったです。

The Good:
Overall a very good time, had lots of fun at all 3 attractions, though I would have loved more time to spend at the Charaumi Aquarium.
I really do recommend the butterfly garden--even if you can't book this tour, that was a really lovely experience, would have loved to spend more time there as well.
Despite the "English Audio" label, neither tour guide or driver could really speak or understand English, but the trip still went really smoothly despite that. I think I missed some extra info (like special highlights of the area, or feeding times for the animals), but the tour guide was really nice, and really tried to be helpful despite the language gap.
The Bad:
My trip started at 8AM when the bus picked me up and ended at 6PM, and while the trip hit 4 different gift stores, they mainly sell a wide variety of sweets. Lunch wound up being a bowl of ramen soup--tasty, but it's not enough to cover breakfast and dinner together.
I didn't like the final gift store that was part of the "free little gift" package, where we got a free cookie with any other purchase, because by the end of the day I was ready for my hotel and real food. However--and I'm assuming the tour company was getting a kick-back from the store--we were parked there for 30 minutes, and after 10 minutes 90% of the group was sitting on the bus waiting to leave.
I realize "dumping tourists in a gift-store" is a common business practice, but when you're inconveniencing and irritating most of your guests, you should probably stop it.

There were many people in the group, and I felt a bit awkward being alone, but I still enjoyed it. I generally prefer to sightsee at a leisurely pace, so I have the impression that tours are busy except during the daytime. I also had to be considerate of the other group while eating, so next time I come, I plan to buy my own ticket and travel at my own pace. I think it would be fun for a family trip.
皆さんグループの方が多く、1人だと気まずい気分になりましたが楽しめました。
基本的に私はのんびり観光したいのでやはりツアーは昼間を除いて忙しいイメージが有ります。
食事も他のグループに気を使いながら食べたので今度来るときは自分で乗船券を買って気ままに旅行しようと思いました。
家族旅行なら楽しいと思います。
