All Reviews for Bus Tours

The taxi guide was a fun person, and despite the heavy rain, the sightseeing was enjoyable. Thank you for the playful and informative guidance.

タクシーガイドさんが楽しい方で大雨の中での観光でしたが楽しかったです。遊び心たくさんの案内ありがとうございました。

It was very good to have a general idea of the locations of the tourist attractions. It helped me a lot to have a rough understanding of the positions while strolling around the city. It was a scorching day on August 5, but there were only ten Japanese customers and one female guide. It was quite hot, and one of my companions started to feel unwell. I recommend using this service only on days when you are in good health during the summer. I took the Namba South route, but next time I would like to try the North route as well.

大まかに観光名所の位置が確認でき大変良かったです。市内を散策する際にも、だいたい位置を把握できていたので助かりました。8月5日の猛暑日でしたが、お客さんは日本人10人で女性ガイドさんひとりでした。かなり暑く、同行者が体調を崩しかけました。夏は体調万全な日の利用をオススメします。南なんばルートに乗りましたが、次回は北ルートにも乗りたいです。

It was great that I could efficiently visit multiple places. However, the locations I visited this time all required a good amount of stamina to walk around, and it felt a bit tough, especially on hot summer days.

複数個所を効率よく回れたので良かった。
しかし、今回回った場所はどこも歩くのに体力が必要で、特に夏場の暑い日は少しきつい感じ。

The price was reasonable, and in the end, they took us to the airport, allowing us to spend our morning meaningfully. However, there was no explanation from the guide on-site, so it ended up being just sightseeing. We arrived before the opening time and had to wait for a while. Only at the Himeyuri Monument did we have an explanation, and we all participated in a moment of silence. Thanks to the explanation, we understood the situation and feelings from that time, which was valuable. I would appreciate it if they could include a guide's explanation, even if it means an additional fee. However, the tour content was great as it allowed us to visit the places we wanted to smoothly, making it a good deal.

お値段もお得で、最後は空港まで送ってくださるので、午前中の時間を有意義に過ごせました。
でも、現地でもガイドさんの説明がないので、見るだけになってしまったり、開園時間前に
ついて、しばらく待たされてたり、最後のひめゆりの塔のみ、説明があり、黙とうをみんなで
しましたが、説明があったことにより、その時の状況や気持ちがわかり、いいものでした。いくらか追加料金があってもいいので、ガイドさんの説明をつけてほしいです。でも、ツアー内容は、行きたい場所をスムーズに回ってくれるので、お得でした。

Since I used it on a midsummer day, everything was hot when I got in, and it was difficult to fasten the seatbelt. However, once we got onto the public road, it was cool, and the guide provided enjoyable commentary, making the time fly by. If I had to wish for something, it would be that the time spent driving in the river was a bit short, so I would have liked a little more of that.

真夏日に利用したため、乗ったときはシート等全てが熱くて、シートベルトするのも大変でしたが、公道へ出ると涼しく、また、ガイドさんが楽しく解説付きでお話してくれるので、あっという間でした。
ただ欲を言えば、川の中での走行が短かったので、もう少し増やしてもらえたらと思いました。

This time, since the hotel was Sankara, I wanted to prioritize my hotel stay, so I chose the half-day course. It was a casual tour where I could participate in casual clothes. The guide's explanations were precise and made me feel good.

今回場所ホテルがサンカラだったので、ホテル滞在を重視したかったから、半日コースにしました。
平服で参加できて、気軽なツアーでした。
ガイドさんの説明が的確で気持ちがよかった。

A good tour with a good value. They cover a lot in a day.
The tour guide provided directions tobus at the end of the tour to returnto to our destination, very helpful

On July 9th, I participated in a bus tour and water buffalo cart ride during the Diamond Princess's stop at Ishigaki Island. Riding with Yuko, each view I saw while listening to the shamisen is etched in my memory. Although it was a short time, it was a very meaningful experience. Also, I would like to thank Veltra for their kind assistance regarding the return ferry service when I made my reservation.

7月9日、ダイヤモンドプリンセスの石垣島寄港の際にバス観光と水牛車に参加しました。
ゆうこさんに乗り、三味を聴きながら回って観た景色一つ一つが頭に焼き付いて、短い時間でしたがとても有意義な経験でした。
また予約時、ベルトラさんには帰りの船便のことで色々親切に対応して頂き、ありがとうございました。

I found this tour because I had been wanting to visit Taketomi Island, which is only about a 10-minute trip from Ishigaki Island. It was cheaper than buying the boat and water buffalo cart separately, so I decided on this option right away. You can also choose your return boat based on the day's conditions, which I recommend.

石垣島からたった10分くらいで行けるということで、以前から竹富島に行きたいと思っていたところ、こちらのツアーを見つけました。
船、水牛車を別々に買うより安かったので、すぐにこちらに決めました。
帰りの船も当日の状況によって決めることができるし、おすすめです。

I also participated in the South Route in the morning. It was a great opportunity to understand the history and characteristics. The best part was when I made a mistake with the time and contacted them; they kindly moved me to the next session since there were available spots. I am very grateful for their wonderful support.

午前に南ルートも参加しました。歴史も特徴もわかりとても良い機会でした。一番は、時間を間違ってしまって連絡をしたら、空席があるので次の回にまわしてくださり感謝感激です。対応が素晴らしかったです。

This tour includes both water buffalo carts traveling through the water on Yubu Island and those moving through the town on Taketomi Island. As previous travelers have noted, upon checking in at the remote island terminal, we received all our tickets and proceeded to our respective boarding areas on time. The coordination and guidance at each location were solid, allowing us to explore freely and comfortably while ensuring a safe and efficient visit to all three islands.

The mangrove cruise took place on a day close to high tide, but there were unique sights to see during low tide, and the captain's stories were entertaining.

On Yubu Island, the water buffalo cart crosses the sea, creating a scene filled with sky, ocean, and the water buffalo cart. I had imagined it would have a more rustic charm, but it turned out to be quite touristy with a comical side, which seemed to appeal to a wide range of generations. While on land, after confirming the return time for the water buffalo cart, we were free to explore. For lunch, we went to a cafeteria where we enjoyed a bento box featuring Okinawan ingredients, including rice made from black rice from Iriomote Island. As someone visiting Okinawa for the first time, I found the unique food delicious, and I even bought some souvenirs at Ishigaki Airport on the way back, thanks to the bento from Yubu Island. We took beautiful photos of flowers and the water buffalo in the water, and while we could relax on Yubu Island, it was hot, so we took breaks in cool buildings while exploring.

On Taketomi Island, I chose the water buffalo cart and bus tour. First, we took a bus from Taketomi Port to Kaiji Beach and Kondoi Beach. Although the time at each location was short, there were cheers when we saw the beautiful shallow beaches. The water buffalo cart then leisurely moved through the streets lined with red-tiled roofs and blooming bougainvillea. (The water buffalo has a habit of stopping in the shade, which was quite charming.) With a roof overhead, we were shielded from the heat, and the 30 minutes passed quickly as the tour neared its end. The connection to the bus back to Taketomi Port was excellent, so there wasn't time to shop or have tea in town, but without this kind of tour that allows for a short visit to all three islands, I wouldn't have been able to travel to the Yaeyama Islands. The itinerary itself and the operational efficiency of the tour seemed to reflect feedback from previous travelers, showing improvements, and I thought it was a wonderfully well-organized tour. This time, I traveled alone as a reconnaissance trip, but if it’s this good, I’d like to bring my husband along next time and go again.

由布島で水の中をゆく水牛車と、竹富島の町なかをゆく水牛車の両方があるこのツアー。
先人の方が、体験談に書いておられる通り、離島ターミナルでの受付時に、すべてのチケットを受け取って、時間通りに各々乗り場へ。各場所での連携、誘導もしっかりしていて、自由で気楽
でありながら、安心で、効率良く３島を回れました。

マングローブクルーズは大潮に近い日にちでしたが、引き潮ならではの見どころがあり、
船長さんのお話も面白かった。

由布島では、海をわたってゆく水牛車。視界の中が、空と、海と、水牛車、の世界。。。
は、もうちょっといい感じに鄙びた風情かと勝手に思っておりましたが、
ツーリスティックで、コミカルな一面もあり、それはそれで、幅広い世代に受けている様子。
上陸中は、戻りの水牛車の集合時間を確認したら、自由に見学します。
お昼は、各々食堂に行き頂くのですが、
沖縄食材を散りばめたお弁当で、西表島の黒米？のごはんがついています。沖縄方面は初めての私には珍しい食べものが多くとても美味しかったので、帰りの石垣空港でお土産に買ったものもあり、由布島のお弁当のおかげと思っています。
美しい花や、水に入っている水牛さんの写真を撮ったり、由布島では結構ゆっくりできますが、
暑いので涼しい建物のなかで休憩しつつの見学という感じでした。


竹富島は、水牛車とバス観光を選びました。
まず、バスで竹富港からカイジ浜や、コンドイ浜へ。各所時間は短いですが、遠浅の美しい浜が見えた時には、歓声が上がっていました。
そして、水牛車は、ブーゲンビリアの咲く赤瓦の街並みをゆっくりと進みます。
（日陰で止まる癖のある水牛さんがご愛嬌）
屋根があるので暑さは遮られ30分は結構すぐ過ぎて、ツアーも終盤です。
帰りの竹富港までのバスへの連絡もやたら良いので、町へ出て、買い物や、お茶のみをする時間はありませんが、短い時間でも３島巡りできるこのようなツアーでなければ、八重山諸島の旅行には来られなかったでしょう。
旅程そのものも、それを実行する側の機動力もあり、以前体験談等で見かけた客の声も反映され改善されているように見えましたし、素晴らしくよくできたツアーだと思いました。
今回は、下見を兼ねての一人旅でしたが、こんなに良いなら夫も連れて、また行きたいです。

Really great tour. We got picked up on time from a hotel near to where we were staying which was very handy and well organised. Our guide, Levin, had perfect English, was very helpful and informative and made the tour extremely enjoyable. There were plenty of break stops along the way and the bus was very comfortable. Due to unforeseen traffic our itinerary changed however this was handled really well and we still got to make each stop as planned. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great but Levin still made each stop fun and interesting. The lunch provided was excellent food and we got to experience the traditional Japanese culture. We didn't have much expectations for the 4D experience but it was actually brilliant and we really enjoyed it. Overall it was a really great trip and we would highly recommend it to anyone who's thinking of doing the Mount Fuji tour.

I participated in a cycling course on Taketomi Island. It was hot, but the kids really enjoyed collecting star sand at Star Sand Beach, playing on the beach as much as they wanted, and visiting the village. It was also nice to be able to choose the time for the return ferry.

竹富島でのサイクリングコースに参加しました
暑かったですが、星砂海岸で星砂集めたり、ビーチで好きなだけ遊んだり、集落にお邪魔したりで、子供たちはとても楽しんでいました
帰りのフェリーの時間が選べるのも良かったです

We enjoyed the whole tour and the food.

The place I really wanted to visit on my first trip to Okinawa was the Churaumi Aquarium. I was staying with friends who live in Okinawa, so while they were at work, I planned to enjoy the aquarium. However, I found out that it was farther from Naha than I expected and there were no transportation options available. I signed up for a bus tour that offered a longer stay at the Churaumi Aquarium, and about four hours flew by in no time. Since other facilities were located far away, if you spend too long enjoying the aquarium, you might not have enough time to explore everything else. I got so captivated by the large tanks that I ended up rushing to the dolphin show!

初めての沖縄でとにかく行きたかったところ！
それは美ら海水族館でした。
沖縄在住の友達の所へお世話になっていたので彼らが仕事中、水族館を満喫しようと思ってたのですが、思いのほか那覇から遠いことと、交通手段が無い？事でした。
バスツアーの中でも美ら海水族館の滞在時間が長いこちらのツアーに申し込み、約4時間、あっという間でしたね。
水族館以外の施設が離れたところにあったりして、水族館をあまり長く堪能してると回りきれなくなってしまいます。
私は巨大水槽に見入ってしまい大慌てでイルカショーへ向かうはめになってしまいました。

I was able to visit the Seifa Utaki and Hamabe no Chaya, which I had wanted to see for a long time, and the price was a great deal. It was also nice that I could be guided by bus without needing to rent a car, allowing me to enjoy sightseeing without getting tired. I definitely want to use this service again.

以前から行ってみたかった斎場御嶽と浜辺の茶屋に行けてこのお値段はお値打ちです。
レンタカーを借りなくてもバスで案内してもらえ、疲れることなく観光できたのも良かったです。
是非、また利用したいです。

The tour began with a pickup at Kenmin Hiroba in front of Kencho-mae Station on the Yui Rail.

Right after boarding the bus, it started to rain heavily while we were waiting to depart. I panicked a bit since I didn't bring an umbrella, but fortunately, the bus had umbrellas available, and by the time we arrived at Sefa Utaki, the rain had completely stopped, and we didn't get rained on afterward, so it turned out fine.

However, it was a downpour like a bucket being overturned.

Sefa Utaki, with its sacred atmosphere, is a very captivating place. Thinking that events were held here from Shuri long ago fills me with indescribable emotions just being in that spot.

At first, I couldn't find the triangular hole (Sangui: Sankuri), which I wanted to see the most. As I followed the indicated route, there was a T-junction along the way, but the route didn't point in that direction, leading straight ahead to a dead end without the triangular hole.

In the end, I retraced my steps back to the T-junction, thought for a moment, and decided to turn since I wanted to explore everything. To my delight, I found the triangular hole deeper inside (laughs).

I enjoyed going through the hole and then left Sefa Utaki.

Next, we headed to Okinawa World, where we enjoyed the Kingdom Village and Gyokusendo Cave.

Due to time constraints, we rushed through Gyokusendo Cave (laughs). In the hot Okinawa weather, it was a bit cool, but not quite refreshing, just a little muggy.

After emerging above ground, I savored the Kingdom Village. Since it was hot, I couldn't resist having a beer at a local brewery café, and I spent a blissful time (I wonder if I was really sightseeing? Laughs).

At the Himeyuri Monument, I felt the tragedy of past wars and reflected on many things. War is truly unacceptable.

This concluded the tour, but the southern attractions were quite impressive.

ツアーの始まりは、ゆいレールの県庁前駅近くの県民広場前でのピックアップでした。

バスに乗車直後、出発待ちの間に雨がもの凄い勢いで降り出し、傘も持たずにツアーに来てしまったので焦りましたがバスに傘の用意があった事と斎場御嶽に着く前にはすっかり雨もあがり、その後も降られずに済んだので、事無きを得ました。

しかし、バケツをひっくり返したような凄い雨でした。

聖地と言う匂いの斎場御嶽は、とても惹かれる場所で、遥か昔に首里からここまで催事を行うために来ていたのだと思うとその場に居る事に何とも言えない想いが込み上げます。

最初、1番見たかった三角形の穴（さんぐぅい：三庫理）がなく、順路と書かれている方向に向かって行くと途中Tの字になっている場所があるが、順路は、その方向を示しておらず直進し、行き止まりとなりましたが、三角形の穴がない。

結局、順路を戻り、先程のTの字の所まで来て少し考えましたが、折角なので全部散策したい想いで曲がって見た所、奥に三角形の穴がありました（笑）。

穴を潜り満喫、斎場御嶽を後にしました。

次におきなわワールド文化王国玉泉洞窟へ向かい王国村と玉泉洞を満喫。

時間もない事から玉泉洞は、ほぼ駆け足でした（笑）。
暑い沖縄では、少しだけ冷んやりで、涼しいとまではいかなく、ちょっと蒸し暑かった。

地上にでて王国村を堪能、暑かったので地ビール喫茶？で、ビールを思わず飲み至福の時間を過ごしたのは言うまでもありません（観光してるのかぁ〜笑）。

ひめゆりの塔では、過去の戦争での惨劇を感じ、考えさせられるものを多く感じました。
本当に戦争は、いけませんね。

これでツアーは、終わりでしたが、南部の観光も中々のものです。

Really great tour. We got picked up on time from a hotel near to where we were staying which was very handy and well organised. Our guide, Levin, had perfect English, was very helpful and informative and made the tour extremely enjoyable. There were plenty of break stops along the way and the bus was very comfortable.

We didn't have much expectations for the 4D experience but it was actually brilliant and we really enjoyed it. Overall it was a really great trip and we would highly recommend it to anyone who's thinking of doing the Mount Fuji tour.

It was my first time visiting the three islands, and it was full of highlights with a smooth itinerary. The activities were enjoyable for the kids as well, making for a fun experience.

初めての3島めぐりでしたが見所満載で時間もスムーズな行程で、子供も楽しめる内容で楽しく過ごせました。

Booked this tour in the hope to see Mt. Fuji. Every destination point you visit will have advantage points to see Mt.Fuji. The only thing you need is good weather and clear visibility! This sadly isn't guaranteed but what you can expect is a great tour Leader, smooth bus journey to and from each destination and a fun day out. Our tour Leader Levin was really funny and charming. He told us information about Mt.Fuji, Japanese culture and the language. Definitely made the trip!

I was able to smoothly enjoy the ferry, water buffalo, and rental bicycles, and fully experience the sightseeing. Thank you very much!!

フェリー、水牛、レンタサイクルとすごくスムーズに利用出来て、観光を満喫することが出来まし^_^
ありがとうございました！！

If you're going for a day trip, I recommend using this tour. It efficiently covers the classic points. The time spent at each location was just right, and I enjoyed the guide's stories. I think it would have been even better if there was an option to visit one or two more popular spots.

日帰りならこちらのツアーを利用するのがおすすめです。
効率よく、定番のポイントを周れました。
それぞれの所要時間もちょうど良く、ガイドさんのお話も楽しめました。
オプションで、あと１～2か所人気スポットに行けるようなコース設定なら更に良かったと思います。

I participated in the Umeda route today. The guide's way of speaking was very easy to understand, and she answered our questions as well.
I apologize for asking a tricky question like, "How deep is the water in Osaka Castle?"
I plan to use this service again when I come to Osaka.
Thank you!

梅田ルートに本日参加しました。ガイドのお姉さんの話し方がとてもわかりやすく、こちらからの質問にも答えてくれました。
大阪城の水深はどれくらいですかぁ？って意地悪な質問して失礼しました。
また大阪に来た時は利用しようと思います。
ありがとうございました、

It was a trip with a friend, and since we didn't have a driver's license, I thought it might be difficult to go around to various places in a timely manner. However, I was right to book this tour. We were able to visit almost all the places we wanted to, and we made effective use of our time.

友達と2人旅でしたが、車の免許がない為、あちこち行くのは時間的に無理かもと思っていましたが、こちらのツアーを申し込んで正解でした。
行きたかった所がほぼ回れて時間が有効に使えました。

I traveled alone to Okinawa at the end of the year and used this service. Okinawa is inconvenient without a car, but since I was alone and couldn't drive, it was a very efficient and great bus tour.
Seifa Utaki was also magical, and the Himeyuri Monument is a place I wanted to visit as a Japanese person.
I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

年末に沖縄一人旅に行って利用しました。沖縄は車がないと不便ですが、一人だし運転できないしで、とっても効率的ないいバスツアーでした。
斎場御嶽(せーふぁうたき）も幻想的だったし、ひめゆりの塔は日本人として行っておきたい場所でした。
また機会があったら利用したいです。

I decided to participate after reading the reviews.
It was my first bus tour. The bus was very clean, and each seat had a USB port, making it convenient and comfortable. The kind tour guide and driver made for a fun trip. I heard there were many Japanese participants this time, but the explanations in English were enjoyable, and I was able to use the empty seats. It was very hot in Kyoto, but I was comfortable. I thought the sightseeing time before departure might be short, but the time allocation was perfect! Along the way, the driver handed out chilled towels, which felt great. The bus, flags, and tour guide were all lemon-colored, making it easy to identify, so I didn't get lost at all! I would definitely like to use this bus tour again if I have the chance. I highly recommend it!

レビューを見て 参加を決めました。
初めてのバスツアーでした。とてもキレイなバスで それぞれの座席にUSBがついていて便利で快適、そして優しい添乗員さんと運転士の方と楽しい旅となりました。今回は日本人の参加者が多いとのことでしたが英語での説明も楽しく、空いている座席も使わせて頂き とても暑い京都でしたが 快適でした。出発までは観光の時間が短いかな？と思っていたのですが、これまたベストな時間配分！途中、運転手さんがキンキンに冷えたおしぼりを配ってくださり とても気持ち良かったです。バスも旗も添乗員さんもレモン色でわかりやすく、迷うこともありませんでした！また機会があれば 利用したいと思えたバスツアーでした。おすすめですよ！

It was a tour that covered three islands in one day, each filled with its own charm. On Iriomote Island, we explored the mangrove forest by boat. We leisurely crossed to Yubu Island on a water buffalo, and the guide's sanshin performance was also captivating. We strolled through the botanical garden. The lunch bento was delicious too. Finally, on Taketomi Island, we took a relaxing tour around the village on a water buffalo, and the pace of life was wonderfully slow. I highly recommend this tour!

1日で3島を巡り、それぞれの島の魅力満載のツアーでした。西表島ではマングローブの森を船で観光。由布島へは、水牛でゆったりと渡りガイドさんの三線も魅力的でした。植物園内を散策。昼食のお弁当も美味しかったですよ。最後の竹富島は、村の中を水牛でのんびり回り時の流れがゆったりとして最高でした‼️とってもオススメのツアーですよ。

Since this is my first time visiting Ishigaki Island, I applied for a tour around the islands. The staff were kind, and I had a great time. Thank you very much.

今回初めて石垣島に行くので離党巡りもしたいと思い申し込みました。スタッフの方も親切で気分よく楽しめました。ありがとうございました。

I attended a concert by Kanjani Eight with my daughter from Fukuoka! I wanted to see the night streets of Osaka during the break between the performances, so I participated‼️ It was very beautiful. 1500 yen is cheap. I want to participate again next time I go.

福岡から関ジャニ∞のライブを娘連れて参戦！
ライブの合間に、夜の大阪の街を観たくて参加しました‼️
とても、綺麗でした。
1500円は安い。次に行った時も、また、参加したいです。

At every destination, the guide is waiting for you, so you can enjoy yourself without any prior research. If you think about going on your own, visiting three islands in one day would be impossible, so I recommend it for those who want to go to various places even if time is limited! I took my 1 year and 7-month-old child, and since there isn't much walking involved, they seemed to have a great time. I think it's a plan that works perfectly even with small children.

行く先々でガイドさんが待ってくれているので、何の下調べをしなくても楽しめる。自分たちだけて行こうと思うと1日に3島もめぐるのは無理だと思うので、時間はないけど色々行きたい！って人にはオススメ。1歳7ヶ月の子供を連れて行ったが、そんなに長時間歩くこともないので楽しそうにしていた。小さな子供がいても全く問題ないプランだと思う。
