Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Great customer service, awesome tour!

Reviewed by: Linh

My boyfriend came visited me from Philly during spring break so I wanted to book a tour for the two of us to get out of Tokyo for one day. The tour guides were super friendly and helpful. I loved the way the tour was planned out. It came to several places within an efficient amount of time so that you could get the most out of a day trip without feeling too exhausted/ too bored. Lake Kawaguchi was beautiful! We could see Mt. Fuji clearly. Although we could not get to the fifth station at Mt. Fuji, we still managed to get to 4th station. We came back to Tokyo around 5pm, which was great because then we could still explore Tokyo at night. In short, please book this tour for beautiful memories and convenience because you don't have to do anything pretty much and just enjoy the time with your accompanies.

Thank you very much for joining our tour and took there your boyfriend!
It is great to hear that you two have enjoyed our tour with our guide.
You couldn't get to 5th station this time, so please try again in summer!
There should be different scene of Mt.Fuji.
Thank you very much!

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Good day tour for mt Fuji sightsee

Reviewed by: Tay

The tour is a good overview for people who just wants a day trip to mt Fuji and can't spend more time there. Tourist who doesn't have too much time and can't spend a night near the area.

A beautiful view of mt Fuji can be taken at the lake. Very nice.

The village gives another experience, supposedly one can see the making of soba, there is also a Japanese garden near the bus drop off pt,

The ninja village is ok. Lunch is abit disappointing, it's cold because they prepared earlier. Be prepared to pay more if you want to try the ninja activities. If not it will be just a walk in the 'park' and a place for hot spring for the feet.

5th station stop was abit too short as we had only 5mins which wasn even enough for toliet. But this was due to the jam traffic .

The tour ends off with a stimulation ride of mt Fuji.

Overall, the guides are nice and the tour was well-planned.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Hop on and Off in Tokyo

Reviewed by: MN&LG

What a great way to tour and navigate around the tourist spots of Tokyo. The open top makes for good views of the city and landscape. We took full advantage of the 1 day pass, hopping off at different points in the city. We started Friday afternoon until Saturday afternoon. Our favorite stop was Asakusa Kanakawado the closest stop to the Senso-ji Temple. We ended up there both days to see even more sites. The wait time between buses was enough to explore and hop back on. Three routes cover a vast area and you probably need more than a day pass. This is a great way to maximize your time in Toyko, you don’t have to figure out a complicated metro map or wonder when you get out of the metro station which direction your destination is in. The audio guide was informative and staff member was available to answer your questions. For those who like the double-decker bus experience, you won't be disappointed.

【ベストプライス】竹富島日帰り観光ツアー 水牛車で楽しむ竹富島での過ごし方<半日/指定ホテルお送り>

I went to the port by myself. 港まで自力で行ったので

Reviewed by: kzkz

The hotel is located outside the city, so it might not have been necessary to make a reservation for the pickup. If you're planning to ride a bicycle for a long time, it might be cheaper to book it as a package. However, if you're only planning to use the bicycle for about an hour, I think the basic fee would be almost the same. I have no complaints about the tour content! You should definitely make a trip to Taketomi Island.

ホテルが市外で、お迎えなしになってしまったので、わざわざ申し込まなくてもよかったのかもしれないです。
自転車で長時間乗るのであればセットで申し込んでおいたほうが、安いのかもしれません。
自転車1時間かそこらの予定であれば基本料金とほぼ変わらないかと思いました。
ツアー内容には不満ありません!竹富島には是非足を延ばすべきです。

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Awesome way to see Tokyo in a short space of time.

Reviewed by: Ismail

The ticket we bought was valid for 24 hours so we used it for 2 days. We started at 4 in the afternoon and continued on until the next day. The service was very efficient. I missed the bus in just a matter of 30 seconds as it drove right past me. I was not prepared to run after it. It was no big deal as I caught the next one since I was in no rush. I had a schedule with me so I was able to get a nice cup of coffee and shopped for a bit and made sure I was there at least 10 minutes before schedule! You need to plan your route and sight seeing carefully.

I went on 2 routes. The Tokyo Sky Tree and the Odaiba route. Both had their own charms. Would recommend the Odaiba route after sunset and the Sky tree route during the day. The Odaiba route was very scenic at night because of the rainbow bridge , Tokyo Tower and the skyline was just breath taking. Hopped off at the Tokyo Sky Tree the next day. Went up the tower for the amazing view. I was there pretty early I suppose hence the queue was not bad at all. The stop was pretty close by and if you could not find your way back to the bus stop, just ask people around you. Everyone was extremely helpful. Japanese would go out of their way to show you where the bus stop is. They would physically bring you there. You just tell them it’s the sky hop on hop off bus and they will bring you there.

If you are tight for time, and want to see as much of Tokyo as you can in that short period of time, this would be your best shot. I had a great time. My time in Tokyo was limited so I was glad I got on this tour bus.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

A convenient way to see Tokyo in 24 hours with kids in tow.

Reviewed by: Anita

The one we got on was an open top. Super punctual. The bus would be comfortable on a good day since there are no seats available downstairs. Therefore there’s limited space when it rains. Only 4 seats in the front row is covered while the rest is open hence the chances of getting those 4 seats? Very very very slim. And those who gets the seats in front would not hop off the bus. Our experience was 2 teenagers hogged all 4 front row seats to themselves.
Apart from the rain, it would have been a wonderful experience. You get to see so many interesting sites which we would not have seen by metro underground such as the Tokyo tower, the rainbow bridge, and the sky tree. This would have been the perfect tour on a lovely sunny weather. We sat towards the front of the bus… so we were sheltered from the strong winds, not the rain. I could not imagine sitting in the back in the wet, cold and with the freezing wind blowing. I glad we got shielded from the wind at least. However we saw some Japanese school kids at the back having an awesome time with the strong wind blowing in their faces, taking selfies, laughing and having so much fun.
The bus was not full perhaps because of the weather. We had 3 children under 5 in which we bought tickets for them too because if you do not, they would have to be seated on your lap. However if you have hyper active children… perhaps being on your lap could be a safer choice. Our kids enjoyed the ride and the view. When they are tired, they could just sleep comfortably leaning on you without falling over as the bus ride was very smooth! The driver was excellent. Even my daughter who is prone to motion sickness felt super.
Overall, it was a good experience. The commentary played correctly, at the correct venue and it was pretty informative. The adults appreciated the commentary while the kids enjoyed the view.

This tour was a little different, as you get free time to explore the various areas without a guide (they can give helpful tips but don't walk with you) and then meet up again. I liked this, because I could see exactly what I wanted and try lots of sweets. It was nice to be able to choose the drop-off location,very convenient. We had good weather too, lucky!

スカイホップバス東京 乗り放題バスチケット 1日券・2日券<乗り降り自由>

It was fun! 楽しかった(^-^)

Reviewed by: ままま

The lack of a roof and the high position provided a great view. When we drove on the Metropolitan Expressway, it was thrilling and really raised my spirits. We stopped for a while where we could see the Tokyo Skytree straight ahead, so we were able to take some great photos. However, you need to dress warmly because it gets cold with the wind rushing by.

屋根が無く、高い位置なので、眺めはとても良かったです。
首都高速道路を走った時は、迫力があってテンションが上がりました。スカイツリーが正面に見える所で長めに止まったので、写真もバッチリ撮れました。

【ベストプライス】西表・由布・竹富島 日帰りツアー マングローブ遊覧+水牛車+選べる竹富島での過ごし方(レンタサイクル他)<1日/昼食付>

I participated in February 2016. 2016年2月に参加しました

Reviewed by: 子連旅人

I participated with my 0-year-old and 2-year-old children. Due to the timing, there were many tourists from the Chinese-speaking regions, and the tour was very crowded, but we were able to efficiently visit three islands. There was a strong wind blowing, typical of the early spring, so the ferry ride from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island was quite rough. I recommend bringing motion sickness medication as a precaution. On the way back, there was a bus that took us from the ferry terminal to the hotel, running once an hour, and we were able to board without a reservation, so we did some shopping in the area before returning to the hotel.

0歳と2歳の子連れで参加しました。時期的に中華圏からの観光客の方が多く、ツアーも非常に混んでいましたが、効率よく3島めぐりをすることができました。ちょうど春一番の強風が吹き荒れていたので、石垣島から西表島までのフェリーの揺れは凄まじいものがありました。酔い止めはお守りかわりとしても持参することをお勧めします。帰りは、フェリー乗り場からホテルまで送ってくれるバスが1時間に1本あり、予約なしで乗れたので、周辺で買い物をしてからホテルに戻りました。

世界文化遺産「斎場御獄」+選べる4コースおきなわワールド or ガンガラーの谷 or 新原ビーチ 半日観光バスツアー<那覇発・那覇空港お送り可/3歳以下無料>

The departure is early, but 出発は早いけど

Reviewed by: ケイト

The meeting time is early, but as I boarded the bus and dozed off, we arrived at "Saijō Gushikawa." It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the parking lot to the entrance. Inside, we watched a brief introductory video before heading into the forest. It is open to the public now, but it was not for a while, and I’m not sure if it will remain accessible in the future. I'm glad I got to see it now.

At Shinbara Beach, I took a glass-bottom boat and saw many tropical fish. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, but I think the beach view would be amazing if it were sunny.

No matter how many times I visit the Himeyuri Tower, it conveys something that words cannot express.

This tour is fulfilling for the price, and you can also disembark at the airport, so why not experience the history of Okinawa?

集合時間は早いですが、バスに乗り込みウトウトしていると「斎場御嶽」に到着。駐車場から入口までは10分ほど歩きます。中で簡単な紹介ビデオを見て、森の中へ。今は公開されていますが、少し前までは非公開、この先もずっと見られるかわかりません。今見られて良かったです。
新原ビーチではグラスボートに乗り、たくさんの熱帯魚が見られました。あいにく曇りでしたが、晴れていたら、ビーチの景色も最高だと思います。
ひめゆりの塔は何度行っても言葉では伝えられないものが胸に迫ります。
このお値段で充実のツアー、空港下車もできますので、沖縄の歴史を感じてみてはいかがでしょうか。

It depends on the weather. 天候次第ですね

Reviewed by: 女子一人旅⇒彼氏と二人旅

Everything went efficiently and smoothly. It was a great experience.

There were no stickers like those commonly found on group tours, and we received tickets at each location.

The free time was very short, so I wouldn't recommend it for families with small children or elderly people.

Since it was early March, the weather could be good or bad depending on the day. If it rains, the tour would be completely unenjoyable.

During the morning cruise on the Nakagawa River, it was cloudy and very cold, and even with multiple layers, it was tough.

In the afternoon, the cycling on Taketomi Island was under clear skies, and it was warm enough to wear a T-shirt and sandals.

効率よく、スムーズにいくことができました。いいとこどりです。
団体ツアーによくあるシールを貼ることもなく、行く場所でそれぞれチケットを切ってもらいます。
自由行動の時間はとても短く、ゆったりすることはできませんので小さなお子様連れの方やお年寄りにはおすすめできないと思います。

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Great Tour....

Reviewed by: Wilton

We had a great experience with Veltra... we bought the ticket and was very easy to find the location to exchange the tickets. The tour was awesome, always on time, clean bus with pleasant people and good information about the city. We had a great time in Tokyo and we discovered many places in Tokyo that probably we wouldn't find without this tour. Our main highlight was the Skytree tower (the tower has 2 levels, we went to both, they charge each level separated, but was worth to visit both), Asakusa temple (we spent a lot of time there, beautiful location and lots of shopping), Tokyo Tower (also has 2 levels, we just visited one as the second level was closed due the winds), and many more. Highly recommended tour. We really enjoyed it.

Same company, same busses, plenty of free seats on both busses but it was IMPOSSIBLE to change ticket. I think you need to be a bit flexible. Not sure I would recommend to a friend.

Great way to explore northern Okinawa

Reviewed by: Rahul

I was picked up right from my hotel and dropped there back on time. It was a hassle free experience where we did not need to worry about ticket purchase and transportation. It covers a about 4-5 different places but the highlight for us was the dolphin show near Churaumi aquarium. Do not miss it!

The only downside was that though there was a tour guide in the bus, she barely spoke any english. But she gave us an audio guide with commentary in english.

Overall, I did not feel rushed at any of the tourist spots and felt that we made good use of our time. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Tokyo

Me and my husband purchased the Tokyo Sky Bus Tickets through Veltra's website and scheduled the tour for the next day. We received the voucher through e-mail and it was really easy to get our tickets the next day! Their office is really close to the Tokyo Station and the bus take off from there. We did the 3 routes on the same day and they were all really nice. On the blue route, we stopped at Asakusa temple ! They have a lot of little shops and food tends there... all of the typical things! On green route, we headed to the fish market, we had incredible sushi there and the quality of the food was great and of course really fresh! For our last route, (the purple one) we stopped on Roppongi hills and it was really pleasant to finish our day there and have some dinner. They have really nice stores and all kind of restaurants, cafes, etc. We had dinner at this Italian place called Il Ritrovo and the pizza, pasta and price there were great! You can get the Restaurants map at the entrance of the mall and there you can check all the options and price rates, it was great!
Our only complain it was the audio on the green bus that was not working and we couldn't hear the route.
Overall we had a really nice day!

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Good tour over all

Reviewed by: Pat

Coming all the way from Australia, and being our first time in Tokyo. My friend and I thought the hop on hop off bus tour was a great way to see the whole of Tokyo in one day.

We came out under the Skytree tower was a great start to our tour of Tokyo, the staff were very helpful in showing where the Hop on Hop off bus office was. It was very easy to find and we got some great snaps of the Skytree tower as we walked to the office. We were pleased that the buses were frequent so we only waited a few minutes until the next bus arrived.

The English audio was fantastic and helped us learn alot about Tokyo and its history. What I liked most about this tour was that all three routes linked up at one stop and at the stop was a Starbucks which we purchased a coffee while we waited for the next bus route. Longest we waited was 20 minutes but was a good break from sight seeing.

Over all I thought this was a great way to see Tokyo in one day, the staff were friendly, a lot to see, the English audio was knowledgable and my friend and I had a great time seeing Tokyo this way. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks :)

Tokyo Bus Review

Reviewed by: Kat

The bus was centrally located but not easy to find once you come out of Tokyo Station and if you speak no Japanese. The stuff onboard speaks very little to no English, so it is hard to communicate with them. The guide stuff is not very professional and even rude sometimes. There are no trash cans anywhere on the bus and the guide named Ms.Itsukoshi was laughing at us for bringing an empty coffee cup onboard, rather than find a way to dispose of it... There is absolutely no eating on the bus! Ms.Itsukoshi threw a big scene when my mother who is an elderly person ate a banana onboard simply because we were touring non-stop and there was not enough time between the routes to get food. It was raining cats and dogs that day. The stuff demanded a ticket outside before you get onboard rather than allowing you to come inside out of the rain's way and look for it in the dry. They also have known us. It was the same guides over and over. The stuff refused to give us a raincoat (we asked 2 people!) for walking around, because they covered up the bus. But they did give them to other people before when it just started to rain. The commentary never coincided with the location of the bus. You never knew which" red or white" building it was. The bus was always ontime, which was positive and was not even thrown off balance by bad weather. The stuff closed the roof when it started to rain, which is positive. I have been on many hop on, hop off tours before, this was probably the worst one. I have not seen the stuff so unresponsive and unhelpful to the tourists' needs like I have seen in Tokyo.

【早割でベストプライス】竹富島+石垣島観光ツアー 水牛車観光と沖縄家庭料理ランチ付き<1日/昼食/送迎>

I had a great time! 楽しめました!

Reviewed by: KUMA

It was a family trip, but I participated alone while everyone did their own thing. I was able to enjoy the entire day to the fullest, and everything went smoothly without any boring moments. I felt the natural hospitality of the people of Ishigaki Island in various scenes, and I was very satisfied.

家族旅行でしたが それぞれ別行動の際 ひとりで参加しました。 丸一日存分に楽しめ すべてスムーズに退屈する時間などなし。石垣島の方々の自然体のホスピタリティをいろんなシーンで感じ 大満足です。

Double Decker Bus Tour of Osaka's Best Sights

Osaka Double Decker Bus Tour with English Commentary, South Course, ie Namba area, NOT a Hop On Hop Off Tour

Reviewed by: Hisham

Our trip was Osaka was a short one for our family of Seven and we did not really have all the time to visit all the tourist spots and areas. Since we were staying in the Namba area, we have decided to optimise our time within the Namba area and hence a conscious decision was made to take this Double Decker Bus Tour, and especially the South Course.

This one hour tour was with Japanese commentary by a friendly Japanese Tourist Guide. However non-Japanese speaking customers were given an iPod like devise and alternative English commentary was provided. This was a non Hop On Hop Off Tour hence true to the Japanese Punctuality Traditions, the tour started and ended right on time.

Seats on the Upper deck were also pre-determined hence there were no hustling and bustling amongst customers to get the best seats on the bus. The blankets provided by the tour provider were also convenient especially when the temperature was only around 8 degrees Centigrade at the time of our tour.

Thank you for having you take a OSAKA SKY VISTA the other day.

In addition, all the staff wait for the ride of "the north route"


Thank you.

【ベストプライス】竹富島日帰り観光ツアー 水牛車で楽しむ竹富島での過ごし方<半日/指定ホテルお送り>

Taketomi Island on a rainy day 雨の日の竹富島

Reviewed by: たこさん

I participated in mid-January. It was my first trip to the Okinawa islands, but unfortunately, January is the rainy season, so there was strong wind and rain, and I couldn't do much sightseeing on the island. However, since the water buffalo loves water as its name suggests, this tour turned out to be a great memory. I would like to visit again on a sunny day next time!

1月の半ばに参加させて頂きました。
初めての沖縄離島旅行でしたが、残念ながら1月は雨季ということで雨風が強く、島内の観光はほとんど出来ませんでした。
ですが、水牛はその名の通り水が大好きだということで、こちらのツアーは行ってみて良い思い出になりました。
今度は晴れた日にまた改めて行ってみたいです!
