It had been several decades since I last visited Nara. I had planned to explore on my own by obtaining a sightseeing map in advance, but since I only had one day, I decided to use a bus tour. I was determined not to miss any of the guide's extensive explanations. We efficiently visited famous temples, and the historical stories and backgrounds were explained in a way that kept me engaged throughout. I'm glad I participated in this tour. Thank you very much. Next time, I would like to take my time exploring the attractions I haven't visited yet.
奈良観光は数十年ぶりでした。
事前に観光マップを取り寄せ自力での観光を考えていましたが、
限られた1日でしたのでバスツアーを利用してみることにしました。
ガイドさんの幅広い説明を聞き漏らすまいと必死でした。
有名なお寺を効率良く回り歴史的な話、背景を飽きることなく説明してくださりこのツアーに参加して正解でした。
ありがとうございました。
次回はまだ訪れていない名所などじっくりと回りたいと思っています。

I toured Tono using a rental car, visiting places like the Denshōen and Kojin Shrine, but there were so many attractions that I lacked confidence in navigating without local knowledge within a limited time. I also felt I wouldn't be able to enjoy the scenery at a leisurely pace, so I decided to use a sightseeing taxi.
As a result, I was extremely satisfied. The course included the Five Hundred Arhats, which has a possibility of bear sightings and involves considerable distance for climbing up and down, so they removed that from the itinerary. Instead, they added Furusato Village and Jūtankei to the course.
Even though it was during the Golden Week, we set off at 10 AM, which meant it was relatively uncrowded, allowing us to explore the scenic spots at a relaxed pace. Here are the places we visited and the approximate time spent at each:
Tono Hachiman 20 minutes - Fukusenji 20 minutes - Furusato Village 50 minutes - Hayachine Shrine 20 minutes - Jūtankei 20 minutes - Usudori Shrine, Atago Shrine 20 minutes.
It was 3.5 hours in total, but excluding travel time, we were able to enjoy sightseeing for about 2.5 hours. During the travel, we admired the beautiful fresh green scenery and the driver shared interesting points about Tono, so there was never a dull moment. A 2-hour plan would only allow for a quick trip to Furusato Village and back, so choosing the 3.5-hour plan was definitely the right decision.
The driver was friendly and very kind. He drove safely and casually informed us about the attractions at each stop, which helped us relax. This became one of my wonderful memories of Tono.
On sunny days, it's better to have a hat. Also, since you'll be going up and down the approach, comfortable shoes like sneakers are essential.
遠野観光はレンタカーで市街地に近い伝承園や荒神神社を巡りましたが、他については見どころが沢山あり、土地勘がなく限られた時間内で巡れる自信がなく、また、ゆっくり景色を眺められなさそうだったので観光タクシーを利用しました。
結果、大満足でした。コースに含まれる五百羅漢は熊が出没する可能性があり、登り下りで距離があるため外して頂き、代わりにふるさと村と重湍渓をコースに加えて頂きました。
GW期間中でしたが10時出発にしたため、比較的混雑せず、ゆっくり名勝を巡りました。立ち寄った場所と大凡の時間です。
遠野八幡 20分〜福泉寺 20分〜ふるさと村 50分〜早池峰神社 20分〜重湍渓 20分〜卯子酉神社、愛宕神社 20分
3.5時間でしたが移動を除いて2.5時間はゆっくり観光出来ました。また移動中も美しい新緑の風景を愛でつつ、運転手さんに遠野の見所を聞かせて頂き、退屈する事は皆無でした。2時間程度だとふるさと村に行って帰ってくるくらいの時間なので、3.5時間プランにして正解でした。
運転手さんは気さくでとても優しい方でした。安全運転で行く先々でさりげなく見所についても教えてくださり、リラックス出来ました。遠野の良い思い出の一つになりました。
天気の良い日は帽子があった方が良いです。
また参道を上り下りするのでスニーカーなど歩きやすい靴は必須です。

I was glad that I could go up the Skytree right away since I had made a reservation. However, I had to go to the counter once, so I thought it would be nice if I could just go straight in with the QR code since I was able to get the tickets online.
予約していたので、スカイツリーすぐに登れて、よかったです。

I was able to visit at a good pace without feeling rushed. There were quite a few students due to the revival of school trips. The guide's quick thinking was demonstrated in many situations, which helped us avoid any issues. Even when I had sudden questions for the guide, they kindly shared a lot of knowledge.
However, regarding lunch... I didn't have high expectations since it's typical for tours to include a stop at a souvenir shop, but I did forget about my husband's dish (a small omelet). It's not a big deal, and the souvenir shop likely makes a lot of them.
As a suggestion, it would be nice to have the option of a lunch course provided by the traditional souvenir shops, as well as a paid option for a famous Nara lunch. Since I finally visited the longed-for Nara, I would love to enjoy a delicious lunch. This was just a foodie’s opinion, but the sightseeing course was absolutely perfect.
効率よくかつ慌しくもなく、ゆっくり拝観できました。修学旅行の復活でかなりの生徒さん達。ガイドさんの機転が沢山の場面で発揮。遭遇しなくて済みました。ガイドさんに咄嗟の質問でも、丁寧にかなりの知識を教えて頂いた。
ただ昼食は・・ツアーでのお土産さんとの抱き合わせは、こんなものだなぁ〜と、期待はしていませんが夫の料理に(小さな卵焼き)忘れてましたよ。
大した事でもないし、お土産屋さんも大量に作るので・・
要望としては、従来のお土産物屋さんが提供してくれるランチコースと、追加料金ありの奈良の名物ランチが選べると良いな。
折角、憧れの奈良に行ったのだから美味しいランチ食べたいですね。
食いしん坊の意見でしたが、観光コースは大正解でした。

I used a sightseeing taxi for the first time. I was drawn to the reviews of Hattori Taxi and took the 6-hour Asuka exploration course, where they guided me to almost all the attractions as I requested and provided explanations. They were very attentive and approached the service from the user's perspective. On the second day, I used the same guide for the Ikaruga exploration. I was grateful that we were taken to the restaurant I specified for lunch. I could specify both the pickup and drop-off locations, and they took care of my heavy luggage, allowing my wife and me to enjoy a comfortable sightseeing experience. Thank you very much.

Each room had its own theme, and all of them were thoughtfully designed. There were plenty of rare fish, and it was adorable to see the turtles slowly wandering around the room. There was a lottery during the visit, and I actually won the grand prize! The 4th floor was an observation deck with a café. The prices were a bit on the higher side, but I bought a cookie that could be stuck onto a straw and a cute éclair. I took my time exploring, so I stayed for nearly three hours. It was a great day.

I took the Hokuriku Shinkansen extended to Tsuruga and came to Fukui, so I didn't have any local transportation. To efficiently visit Eiheiji Temple and the Ichijodani Asakura Clan Ruins Museum, I used the regular sightseeing bus.
Thanks to the guide, who referred to notes and sticky notes that seemed to be self-prepared, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of the sightseeing points in advance. I learned that the Ichijodani Asakura Clan Ruins are designated as a special historic site, special scenic spot, and important cultural property, and how impressive that is.
Additionally, the guide provided explanations about the scenic spots in Fukui Prefecture on the bus, which helped me understand how amazing Fukui is in a subtle way. Thank you very much.
敦賀まで延伸した北陸新幹線に乗って福井に来たので現地での足がなく、永平寺と一乗谷朝倉氏遺跡博物館を効率良く見学するため、定期観光バスを利用しました。

また、バス内では福井県の名勝についても説明していただき、地味にすごい福井がよ~く理解できました。

Ichijodani is an increasingly fascinating tourist destination the more you explore it, and other attractions are also surprisingly impressive! We look forward to your next visit.

The destination is accessible by a local bus, but the frequency is limited, making it inefficient to get around. If it's crowded, you should be prepared to stand.
In that regard, a sightseeing bus allows you to travel efficiently without worries, and you are guaranteed a seat. Additionally, you can listen to the excellent explanations from the guide. They answered detailed questions accurately, allowing me to gain new knowledge.
I thought the cost performance was outstanding, as the price includes transportation, the guide fee, entrance fees, lunch, and tea.
All parts of the itinerary were enjoyable and educational. Personally, I appreciated the talk about tea knowledge from the head priest of Jiko-in.
行くところは路線バスも通っているところですが、本数も限られているので効率的に回れません。混んでいたら立つことも覚悟しないといけません。
その点、観光バスなら気にせず効率的に、しかも座席確定で連れて行ってくれます。
また、ガイドさんの秀逸な説明を聴けます。細かな質問も的確に答えていただき、新たな知識を得ることもできました。
移動代+ガイドさん代+入場料+昼食代+お茶代がセットでこの価格はコストパフォーマンスも抜群と思いました。
全ての行程が楽しく、勉強になりました。個人的には慈光院のご住職の茶の心得の講話が良かったです。

I went with a child in the lower grades of elementary school. Since each floor and area has a different theme, we spent 2-3 hours there without realizing it. While otters can be found in other aquariums, I believe this is the only place where you can get a plush of the polka dot stingray. Of course, the real fish were great, but the child seemed to really enjoy the fish on the monitor that talked back, and kept trying to engage with it.

We went on a 2-night, 3-day trip to Nara from Ibaraki Prefecture. We are a couple approaching late senior age. The main attraction was the cherry blossoms at Yoshinoyama. We had planned this trip in 2019, but it was canceled due to COVID-19. We really wanted to go, but after five years, we had lost confidence in our ability to walk, and we were about to give up when we discovered the taxi tour advertisement from Veltra and quickly made a reservation.
On the first day, we were guided to Todai-ji and Kasuga-taisha. There are roads where only taxis and commercial vehicles are allowed, and regular cars cannot enter. We smoothly ascended steep slopes and were able to visit Nigatsu-do, which we thought might be impossible. Our driver provided excellent guidance, sharing rich knowledge and interesting stories that you wouldn't find in online resources or guidebooks, which was very educational. They were also great at entertaining us as a couple, and we were able to enjoy a fun tour of most of the vast Todai-ji and Kasuga-taisha in just three hours.
On the second day, we toured Yoshinoyama, and the support was meticulous, allowing us to walk very little, making it accessible even for seniors. A somewhat miraculous event occurred at Kinpusen-ji, which was moving. Perhaps it was due to our driver's efforts. This is what they mean by "going above and beyond." If there was a little extra time, they would take us anywhere based on our requests and also recommend temples and shrines. They made excellent use of our time, with no waste. They also considered parking fees, ensuring we incurred almost none.
On the third day, they adjusted the schedule to fit our return time and took us to a wonderful temple that is hard to reach by train or bus but still worth visiting. The explanations were exquisite, and I found myself wanting to visit all the temples and shrines in Nara. I absolutely want to go again while I'm still alive. My impression of Nara has changed. Driver M from Hattori Taxi, I look forward to your assistance next time.
茨城県から2泊3日の奈良観光に行きました。後期高齢者間近の夫婦です。メインは吉野山の一目千本桜です。2019年に計画したのですが、コロナで中止になり、どうしても行きたかったのですが、あれから5年も経ち、今回は年齢も進んで、歩くことに夫婦共に自信が無くなり諦めかけている処に、ベルトラさんのタクシー観光の広告を発見し早速申し込みました。1日目は、東大寺と春日大社を案内していただいたのですが、タクシーや商用車のみが許されていて一般車両は入れない道路などが有り、急な坂もスイスイと上り、拝観したかったが無理かもしれないと思っていた二月堂にも参拝できて、その上ドライバーさんの案内がこれ又、ちゃんと付いてきてくれて、知識も豊富でネットや観光本に書いてないような、話も面白くしてくれてとても勉強になりました。夫婦の楽しませ方も上手で、3時間であの広大な東大寺と春日大社の殆どをとても楽しく回る事が出来ました。2日目は吉野山の観光ですが、ポイントも然り、サポートが細かくて、歩くことも少なく高齢者でも充分に行く事が出来ます。金峯山寺ではチョット奇跡的なことが起こり、感激しました。ドライバーさんの功徳かも。至れり尽くせりとはこんな事言うのでしょうか。時間が少し余れば、こちらの要望に応じてどこにでも行ってくれますし、お勧めのお寺や神社なども教えてくれます。凄く時間を有効に活用してくれます。無駄がありません。駐車料金も殆どかからないように考えてくれています。3日目は帰りの時間に合わせてくれて、中々電車やバスでは中々行けないような、それでも行きたい素晴らしいお寺にも連れていってくれて、その説明が又絶妙で、もう、奈良中のお寺や神社回りたくなってしまいました。生きている内に絶対に又行きたいと思いました。奈良の印象が変わりました。服部タクシーのMドライバーさん、その時はよろしくお願いします。

ガイドさんが最高! 小柄な方だが、品の良いユーモアを織り混ぜながら(ネタバレになるので省略しますが)とても分かり易く、拝観対象の特徴や要点を説明して呉れた。 法隆寺も中宮寺も過去に数回訪れていたが、今回、ガイドつきで回ったのが大正解だった。 バスは満席だったが、その大勢の乗客をまとめ上げ、忍耐強く引率し、分かり易く要点を説明する姿は見事。 参加したのは午前中だくのツアーだったが、このガイドさんなら終日のプログラムにすれば良かったと思った。 彼女に感謝!

The bus was clean. It was a pity there was no USB power. The bus guide was very easy to listen to. There was an umbrella rental service. I was able to check in my suitcase.
バスが綺麗だった。USB電源がなかったのは残念。バスガイドさんは、とても聴きやすかった。傘貸出サービスがあった。スーツケースを預けられた。

It was very educational to revisit the birthplace of Japanese Buddhism. In particular, it was great to be able to take my time and see everything at Hōryū-ji.
日本仏教の始りのの地を改めて訪れ大変勉強になりました。
特に法隆寺は全てをゆっくり見ることが出来良かったです。

I time-traveled to ancient times and then to the Middle Ages, becoming aware of the formation of Japan. It was a lot of fun visiting temples associated with Prince Shotoku.
古代ににタイムスリップその後、中世へと日本の成り立ちを意識し、聖徳太子ゆかりの寺など大変楽しかったです。

It was a visit to Hōryū-ji on a very cold day, but the beauty of the blue sky and the dignified presence of the temple made it a valuable experience. Thanks to the knowledgeable guide's explanations, it became a memorable experience.
大変寒い日の法隆寺参拝でしたが、青空の美しさと凜とした寺の佇まいが相まって貴重な参拝になりました。
専門知識の豊富なガイドさんの説明のお陰で心に残る経験になりました。

An aquarium that is unimaginable from the exterior of the building.
As you cross the bridge, you suddenly encounter a cylindrical tank at the entrance.
The rays and sturgeons in the tunnel-shaped tank are huge and impressive.
The sardine tank is also mesmerizing; I could watch it for a long time if I had the time.
This time I didn't have much time, so if I have the opportunity to go again, I would like to take my time to explore.
建物の外観から想像もつかない水族館。
橋を渡ると入り口にいきなり円柱状の水槽。
トンネル状の水槽内のエイやチョウザメが巨大で迫力有り。
イワシ水槽も時間があれば、ずーっと見ていられる。
今回は時間があまり無かったので、次回行く機会があればゆっくり見たい。
