All Reviews for Seasonal Tours

During my short stay in Kyoto, I looked for experiences that would allow me to savor Japan. International guests prefer tours that are not solely for overseas visitors; they enjoy tours that Japanese customers can also appreciate.

The riverside setting wasn't cool, but it was a very lovely location where I could enjoy watching the maiko, making it a truly valuable experience. It became a wonderful memory for my family.

京都での短い滞在期間で、日本を味わえるものを探しました。
海外からのゲストは、海外のゲストばかりのツアーは好みません
日本のお客様が楽しめるツアーを好みます。

川床は涼しくはなかったですが、とても素敵なロケーションで
舞妓さんの鑑賞もでき、とても価値のある体験ができ嬉しかったです。
家族のいい思い出になりました。

I saw the procession for the first time.
It wasn't too hot because it was cloudy.
The slow pace of the procession felt more like a local festival than what I see on TV, and I felt a sense of familiarity. I want to go again next year.

初めて巡行を見ました。
曇りだったのでそれほど暑くなかったです。
ゆっくり巡行する姿は、テレビで見るより、地元の祭って感じがして、親しみを感じました。来年も行きたいです。

I discovered a sale and couldn't help but make an immediate purchase. It's not often that you get the chance to view the floats up close, so I'm really glad I went. Even though it was blazing hot, the frozen drinks and wet towels provided made it much more comfortable to enjoy the event. If you want to see all the parades, it takes about 2 hours, so I definitely recommend getting a seat. I was very satisfied with the paid seating. Thank you!

セールになっているのを発見し思わず即購入。
山鉾を間近にゆっくり眺められる機会など早々ないので本当に行ってよかったです。
炎天下の中でしたが、凍らせたドリンクやウエットタオルなどのグッズを配布頂いたおかげで幾分か楽に鑑賞できました。
全ての巡行を見ようと思うと2hほどあるのでイス席が断然オススメです。
大満足の有料席でした。ありがとうございました。

I was able to purchase at a lower price than the regular rate. There were many activities available, but since there were fewer people, I was able to enjoy them without waiting in line. Additionally, there were more inbound tourists than Japanese visitors.

通常料金よりもお安く購入できました。アクティビティはたくさんありましたが、人が少ないため並ぶこともなく楽しめました。また来ていた方は日本人よりもインバウンド客の方が多かったです。

Without worrying about transportation times, we took a direct bus from Toyama Station to Murodo! It was surprisingly easy on the body, to the point where I want to do it this way again next time. Although the weather wasn't perfectly clear, the stunning panorama of the snow walls and the Tateyama and Tsurugi mountains blew that away. The impressive snow walls towering far above the bus were truly a case of "seeing is believing." If you head towards Mikurigaike on the snowy path… you'll be greeted by a rock ptarmigan! Spreading out our lunch on a snow table while gazing at Toyama Bay and the Noto Peninsula was also a delightful experience. The experience of this extraordinary space and time was truly rare. I listened to a curator's talk at the "Tateyama Caldera Sabo Museum" near Tateyama Station, but I felt that this place deserved more time to explore. It would be a shame to rush through it!

乗り物の時間を気にすることなく、富山駅から室堂までバスで直行！
次の機会もこの方式にしたいと思った程、予想以上に身体に楽だった。
快晴ではなかったものの、それを吹き飛ばすような雪の大谷と立山・剣岳のパノラマは素晴らしかった。
バスの車高を遥かに凌ぐ雪の壁の迫力は、まさに「百聞は一見に如かず」
雪道を、みくりが池方面へ行けば…雷鳥までお出迎え！
富山湾と能登半島を眺めながら、雪上で雪のテーブルにお弁当を広げるのも、また乙なもの。
非日常的空間と時間の体験は、得難いものだった。
立山駅近くの「立山カルデラ砂防博物館」で学芸員さんのお話を伺ったのだが、ここは、もっとじっくり時間をかけて良いと思った。駆け足ではもったいない！

I've always wanted to see the Snow Wall at least once, but the thought of the hassle of getting to Tateyama lingered for years. While browsing tours on Veltra, I discovered this one! Although the participation fee was not exactly cheap, I concluded that it was a reasonable amount. I joined with almost no prior knowledge, but the explanations were very clear, and the Snow Wall I saw afterward was deeply moving. Perhaps because I was tense while walking on the snowy path, I was sore all over the next day. Thank you for organizing such a wonderful tour.

雪の大谷を一度は見てみたい思いと、立山へのアクセスが面倒だなぁと思う気持ちで長年が過ぎ、何となくベルトラのツアーを閲覧していたところこちらのツアーを発見！　
決してお安いとは言い難い参加費ではありましたが、結論は妥当な金額でした。
予備知識がほとんどない状態での参加でしたが、非常にわかりやすく説明があり、その後にみた雪の大谷は感慨深いものでした。
雪道を歩くときに力が入ったせいか、翌日全身筋肉痛でした。
素敵なツアーの企画、ありがとうございます。

I have been to Tateyama for climbing twice before. I was moved by the scenery that unfolded when I arrived at Murodō after transferring vehicles from the Nagano Prefecture side. While watching the sunset over the western horizon from Raichōsō, I thought to myself that over there was Toyama City and that the sea was already the Japan Sea.

And this time, on my third visit, I was amazed to experience something several times more moving than before, coming from Toyama City. First, I was surprised that the 3,000-meter peaks were only about 35 kilometers away in a straight line. Although I live in Kanagawa Prefecture, where the sea is nearby, it takes several hours to reach the Alps in Nagano Prefecture. That terrain is unique to Toyama Prefecture. I also enjoyed the deep sea and the delicious white shrimp. Lunch on the snow was the best. Traveling with someone knowledgeable about the area made it even more special. It became a memory I will never forget. Thank you very much. Please take care of yourself in such a harsh natural environment.

　今まで立山は登山に2度程行きました。長野県側から乗り物を乗り継ぎ室堂に着いて広がる景色に感動しました。雷鳥荘から西に沈む夕日を見ながらあちらが富山市なんだと海はもう日本海なんだと思ってはいました。
そして、今回3度目で初めて富山市から、なんと、なんと今までの感動の数倍でした。まず3千メートル級の山まで直線で35キロ程に驚き。住んでいる神奈川県は海はそばですが、長野県のアルプス迄は数時間かかります。その地形は富山県ならではですね。海も深く取れる白エビも堪能しました。雪の上のランチも最高でした。その道の詳しい方との旅はまた格別でした。いつまでも忘れない思い出になりました。本当にありがとうございました。厳しい自然の中くれぐれもご自愛くださいませ。

Thank you very much for the wonderful experience on the Snow Wall Tour. This was my first tour, and not only was the Snow Wall impressive, but the journey itself was very comfortable, allowing me to enjoy the magnificent scenery from the bus window. I also appreciated the local information shared, which made for very enjoyable conversations. Please send my regards to our tour guide, Mr. Otsuka, and the bus driver. Both of them were kind and wonderful people, and I am truly grateful. Thank you again, and I look forward to the next time!

雪の大谷ツアーではとてもお世話になりました。今回は、初めてのツアーでしたが、雪の大谷のみならず、道中もとても快適で車窓から雄大な風景を堪能することができましたし、現地情報をいろいろと聞かせていただきとても楽しいお話ができました。ツアーガイド大塚さん、バス運転さんにもよろしくお伝えください。2人とも優しく、素晴らしい人、心から感謝しています。ありがとうございました。また次回、その際は是非またよろしくお願いいたします。

Although it was clearly foggy with light rain and the view was non-existent, I had a great time! Despite it being a closed day, we started with a detailed explanation at the Sabo Dam Museum, and at Murodo and Ohtani, I was informed that there was enough time to enjoy the Mikurigaike Onsen.

At the snow-covered Ohtani, the tourists were relatively sparse, making it easy to enjoy the movement. I headed to the onsen while eating Tateyama soft serve, relaxed in the hot spring, and even encountered the target bird, the ptarmigan, and was able to hear its call.

Above all, on the return route, I had the vast snowfield all to myself, which I think was a rare experience in Tateyama. I felt that I was able to fully enjoy the pleasures that come with this kind of weather. I believe it was quite an advanced way to enjoy the area given the weather, but I was very satisfied as I was able to make the most of my time. Thank you!

明らかに霧が出まくりで小雨のぱらついている状態で、眺望もへったくれもなかったのですが、存分に楽しめました！
休館日にも関わらず砂防ダム博物館の詳しい解説に始まり、室堂・大谷では、みくりが池温泉で入っても時間に余裕がある旨を教えていただきました
雪の大谷では、観光客もそれなりにまばらで、移動に苦も無く楽しめました
温泉に立山ソフトを食べながら向かって、湯船に浸かってまったりのんびり楽しんだ挙げ句、お目当てのライチョウにも巡り合うことが出来、鳴き声まで聞けました
何より、帰りルートでは大雪原で誰もいない状態で独り占めでしたので、立山でなかなか出来ない体験だと思い、この天候なりの楽しみを満喫できたように思います
天気も天気なので、かなり上級者向けの楽しみ方だったとは思いますが、たっぷり時間いっぱい満喫できたので非常に満足できました
ありがとうございました！

There were only us and one other couple who were Japanese. The rest were all from China. The tour guide spoke entirely in Chinese, with only greetings and meeting times in Japanese. They were very nice, though...

日本人は、私達ともうひとカップルだけ。中国の方ばかり。添乗員の方の話も全て中国語、挨拶と集合時間だけ日本語。とても感じのいい方でしたけど、、

It was my first time participating.
I used the bus to avoid worrying about parking.
There was a staff member on site who was kind and helpful,
and we departed on time, allowing us to enter the venue as scheduled.

I was overwhelmed by the crowd, but there were guides everywhere, so I reached my designated seat without any anxiety, and the long-awaited grand fireworks display was stunning.
It was wonderful.
I am very satisfied.

初めての参加でした
駐車場の心配を避けるためにバスを利用しました
現場には担当者もいて、親切に対応してくれて、
時間通りの出発で、予定通りに会場に入れました

人の多さに圧倒でしたが、案内人がそこかしこにいて不安なく指定席にたどり着き、待望の大花火に圧巻でした
素晴らしかった

満足です

Despite the forecast for sunny weather, I was disappointed to see the mountains covered in clouds, but beyond those clouds lay a world of clear skies. Below, I could see a sea of clouds, and while we were indeed blessed with good weather, it was a precious experience to start with the morning spring water and receive a thorough lecture about the melting snow from Tateyama. I realized how delicious things from Toyama are nurtured in this way. The time management and the gradual increase in elevation were also excellent, making me very satisfied with my choice of this tour. This is an experience that you wouldn't get by simply using public transportation on your own.

晴れの予報にも関わらず山は雲に覆われ残念に思っていたら、雲を突き抜けた先に快晴の世界が広がっていました。眼下に雲海も見られお天気に恵まれたのももちろんですが、朝の湧水に始まり、立山からの雪溶け水に関する情報を丁寧にレクチャーいただき、富山の美味しいものはこうして育まれているんだなと実感できる貴重な経験になりました。時間配分も段々と標高を上げていく構成も素晴らしくこのツアーを選んで良かったなと大満足の一日でした。自分たちで公共交通機関で向かったのでは得られない経験ができるツアーです。

It was a tour that greatly exceeded my expectations in terms of satisfaction. Thanks to the favorable weather conditions, not only did we get to see the sea of clouds, but the care taken by the tour guide was also wonderful.

予想を大幅に上回る満足度の高いツアーでした
気候条件に恵まれたこともあり、雲海が見えるのももちろん、添乗員の方の気遣いも素晴らしいものでした

The tour guide was friendly, but there was a mishap where passengers were left behind upon arrival at the destination, likely due to inexperience or unfamiliarity. However, aside from that, I think the sightseeing at the destination was enjoyable overall.

If the route to the destination changed from the original plan, I believe it was probably communicated in Chinese, but I would have appreciated an explanation in Japanese as well.

Additionally, although it’s not the guide's responsibility, I think it would have been good to have a prior explanation that this tour was quite challenging for those with mobility issues.

The visit to the Kawachi Wisteria Garden was a bit early, but I think that was unavoidable.

愛想のよい添乗員さんでしたが、おそらく不慣れもしくは経験不足から目的地到着して乗客を置きっぱなしというハプニングはありましたがそれ以外は目的地の観光は楽しめたのでまずまずだと思います。
行き先のルートがはじめの予定と変わるのであればおそらく中国語では話されていたと思うのですがこちらにも日本語説明は欲しかったと思います。
あと添乗員さんの責任ではないのですが、このツアーは足が不自由の方にとってはハードなコースになっていたのであらかじめ説明があってもいいと思いました。
河内藤園は少し早かったでもこれは仕方ないと思います。

The fireworks display, in collaboration with the music, was spectacular. I want to see it again.
The shuttle bus arrived at the venue more than two hours early, which made the waiting time long and difficult. I had a seat (A1), but it would have been fine without one. The departure location for the shuttle bus on the way back was dark, making it hard to find.

楽曲とコラボした花火打ち上げは見事でした。また見に行きたいです。
シャトルバスは会場に2時間以上前に着き待ち時間が長かったのが辛かった。椅子席(A1)でしたが席無しでも良かったです。帰りのシャトルバス発車場所が暗くなっていたので分かり難かった。

On time.

Staffs are nice.

Maybe can share the location information of back earlier (before start or on the bus).

I thought the monorail station's arrivals and departures were convenient.
I'm glad I had a fun day.
Fireworks are great.
Thank you. Thank you very much.

モノレール駅の発着も便利だと思いました。
楽しい日を過ごせてよかったです。
花火はいいですね。
感謝します。ありがとうございました

This year, due to the warm winter, there was hardly any snow in the area, which made my 9-year-old child very happy. Since it was around the time of the Lunar New Year, there were many Chinese visitors. I visited in the morning, and the waiting times for all the plans were not very long. The Ice Sculpture Cutting Championship is also being held. Registration starts at 10 AM, so if you're interested, give it a try. Although the prices were on the higher side, it was great that I could purchase tickets at a discount from the VELTRA website.

今年は暖冬の影響で地元では殆ど雪が降らなかったので、9歳の子供がとても喜んでいました。
春節の時期だった事もあり、中国のお客さんが多く来ていました。午前中に伺いましたが、どのプランも並ぶ時間はあまり長くはありませんでした。
氷濤アイス早切りカット選手権も開催されています。10時から受付なので興味のある方は挑戦してみてください。
高めの料金設定でしたが、VELTRAさんのサイトから格安でチケットが購入出来てとても良かったです。

My relatives from abroad came to Japan. Since it was their first time in Kyoto, I wanted to create a special memory, so I made a reservation. My child and I had just traveled to Kyoto five months ago, so I thought it would be nice to experience something we wouldn't normally do on a typical trip. Since it was summer, we opted for a riverside dinner. I had always wanted to go to a riverside dining experience in Kyoto during the summer. I planned it as a surprise for my relatives without explaining the details of the dinner, as it was also a day when they could meet a maiko.

The sukiyaki we chose was very generous in portion. The meat was tender and delicious. The riverside was cool, and the sound of insects was refreshing. The lanterns reflected beautifully on the river surface, adding to the ambiance. The charming maiko greeted us with a smile, and we were able to take many photos. The staff were also quick to take pictures for us and were very accommodating with refills of tea and other requests. The bus driver was also very friendly. My foreign relatives and my child loved it, and it was a great decision. Being able to see the maiko's dance up close created wonderful memories. I would love to go again!

海外からの親戚が来日。初めての京都ということで、何か特別な思い出になれば、と申し込みました。同行する私と子供は５ヶ月前に京都旅行をしたばかり。。私たちにとっても普通の京都旅行では経験しないことを、と思い、夏ということもあり、川床の夕食にしました。夏に京都に行くなら川床にいきたい、と常々おもっていました。舞妓さんにも会える日程ということで、親戚にはどんな夕食か詳しく説明せず、サプライズにしました。
選んだすき焼きはボリュームたっぷり。お肉も柔らかく美味しい。川床も涼しく、虫の声が涼しげ。川面に写る提灯も情緒たっぷり。そして可愛らしい舞妓さんがにこやかに応対してくれ、写真もたくさんとらせていただきました。スタッフのかたも写真を撮ってくれたり、お茶などのおかわりも、すぐ快く対応してくれました。バスの運転手さんもとても愛想のいいかたでした。外国人の親戚にも、子供にも大好評で、大正解でした。舞妓さんの踊りを間近で見ることができ、素敵な思い出になりました。またぜひ行きたいです！

The weather forecast changed to a nice one, and I was able to see something quite rare. The scenery was truly wonderful. The tour guide was very kind, and the driver ensured a safe and comfortable journey.

I was somewhat surprised by the number of foreigners, but I would love to come back to see the Tateyama mountain range, which shows various faces throughout the four seasons. The bento was also very delicious, and I was extremely satisfied.

　天気も良い予報に変わり、なかなか見れないものをみれました。本当に素晴らしい景色でした。添乗員の方も大変親切でしたし、運転手さんも安全運転で快適な旅でした。
　外人さんが多かったのは若干びっくりしていますが、春夏秋冬いろいろな顔を見せる立山連峰をまた見にきたいと思いました。
　お弁当も大変美味しく、大満足です。

I was impressed by how well the tour was programmed, with stops that were neither too short nor too long. I truly enjoyed the lunch in the snowfields of Midagahara and the strolls around Murodou, including the Snow Wall. I'm really glad I participated.

Especially, our guide, Mr. Otsuka, was knowledgeable and well-connected throughout Tateyama, providing precise instructions on how to best explore each stop, making for an extremely comfortable tour.

Thank you very much for organizing such a wonderful tour this time. I look forward to more fantastic tours in the future.

何箇所かの立ち寄り先があったのですが、そのどれもが短すぎず長すぎず本当によくプログラムされたツアーであることに感心しました。
弥陀ヶ原の雪原でのお弁当や雪の大谷をはじめとする室堂周辺の散策などどれもが楽しく本当に参加してよかったなと感じております。
特にガイドの大塚さんは博識であり立山のあちらこちらで顔が効き、どの立ち寄り先に於いてもどう見て回るのが良いか的確に指示していただき極めて快適なツアーを演出していただきました。
今回はこんなに素敵なツアーを企画していただき本当にありがとうございました。
これからも素敵なツアーをご提案ください。
楽しみにしております。

The snow wall was at its lowest at 11 meters, having melted a bit from the previous 13 meters. I enjoyed it quite a bit, but I was surprised by how many foreigners were there. The tour included experiences that you can't have on a personal trip, such as drinking spring water, listening to talks about erosion control, and having lunch on the snow. There was some fog along the way, but the weather was nice at the top of the mountain, and the scenery was beautiful. It turned out to be a fun trip without feeling cold at all.

雪の大谷 今までで一番低い13mから、少し溶けて11mでした。それなりに堪能しましたが、外人さんが多いのにびっくりしました。ツアーは、名水を汲んで飲んだり、砂防の話を聞いたり、雪の上でお弁当を食べたりと個人の旅行では味わえない経験をさせていただいました。途中霧が出たりしましたが、山の上では天気もよく景色も綺麗で、全く寒くなく楽しい旅行になりました。

I had always wanted to see the Snow Wall. After searching for a tour departing from Toyama with relatively short travel time compared to bus tours from travel agencies, I found this tour. Given the weather and the unusually high temperatures in May, I didn't have high expectations, but I ended up having a very enjoyable and satisfying day.

*I received plenty of explanations about Toyama, Tateyama, ice, water, plants, and the Japanese rock ptarmigan, allowing me to learn a lot beyond just seeing the Snow Wall.
*Having lunch while sitting in a kotatsu dug into the snow, with the provided mat and enjoying the view, was an exceptional experience.
*Mr. Otsuka, our guide, provided excellent commentary, and the arrangement of the tour itinerary was fantastic. Just as described in the tour page's guide introduction, he wanted everyone to experience the awe of Tateyama, and this tour truly allowed us to feel that.
*The change in the bag of potato chips we received was easy to understand and quite interesting (it required some restraint not to open it until the end).
*The small bottle for spring water that was given as a gift was cute and surprisingly became a nice memento.

*I hope there will be a hiking tour to see the autumn leaves and stars, and I would love to visit Toyama again.

ずっと雪の大谷を一目見ようと思っていました。
旅行会社のバスツアーより、移動時間が相対的に短い富山発着のツアーを探したところ、このツアーを見つけました。天候や、5月異例の高温で、それほど期待をしなかったのですが、とても楽しく、満足の一日を過ごすことができました。

*富山や立山、氷、水、植物、雷鳥など、いっぱい説明していただき、雪の大谷を見る以外の勉強がたくさんできました。
*雪に掘りこたつして、用意していただいたマットを敷いて、景色を眺めながらのランチ、格別な時間でした。
*ガイドの大塚さんの解説、ツアー行程のアレンジがとても素晴らしく、まさにツアーページのガイド紹介通り、彼が感動した立山をみなさんにも体感してもらいたい、それを実感できるツアーでした。
*いただいたポテトチップスの袋の変化がわかりやすく、面白かったです（最後まで開けないよう、我慢が必要）
*プレゼントの湧き水用の小さいボトルが可愛らしく、意外と記念になってうれしかったです。

*秋の紅葉時、星を見るハイキングツアーがあればいいなと願いながら、又富山を訪れたいと思いました。

It was forecasted to rain, but although the wind was strong, we managed to avoid getting wet.
I participated from Toyama City, and I had a great time learning so many new things.
It mentioned stopping by a spring, so we were discussing whether to bring something to put it in, but I was happy to receive a cute bottle.
The snow wall, the snowy mountains, and the waterfall were all incredibly impressive.
I was very satisfied to see the ptarmigan as well.
Walking in the snowy mountains left my body sore the next day, but I really enjoyed it.

雨予報でしたが、風は強かったですがなんとか降られずにすみました。
富山市内からの参加でしたが、知らないことばかりでとても楽しめました。
湧き水の所に立ち寄ると書いてあったので、何か入れるもの持ってく？と話していましたが、かわいいボトルをもらえて嬉しかったです。
雪の大谷も雪山も滝も迫力満点ですごかったです。
雷鳥も見れて大満足でした。
雪山を歩いたことで、翌日体がバキバキになりましたが、とても楽しめました。

Last year, the trip was canceled due to falling rocks, so this time it was a revenge trip. The snow at the Great Snow Wall exceeded my expectations. We heard stories and quizzes about Toyama's abundant water from Mr. Otsuka. It's an easy day trip bus tour. Having lunch on the snow while gazing at the Tateyama mountain range was fantastic. We walked through the snow from Murodo and were lucky to spot a pair of cute ptarmigans just before Mikurigaike. I want to go again next year.

昨年は落石でキャンセルとなり今回はリベンジでした。期待以上の雪の大谷。大塚さんから富山の豊富な水のお話やクイズあり。日帰りで楽々いけるバスツアーです。立山連峰を眺めながらの雪上ランチも最高。室堂から雪の中を歩き、みくりが池手前のところで可愛い雷鳥のツガイにも会えてラッキーでした。来年も行きたいです。

The driver was at fault. I felt sick as if I were on an attraction. The tour guide also said bad things. They lied and made me dislike Japan.

運転者が悪かった。
アトラクションに乗っていたように気分が悪かったです。
ツアーガイドも悪いことを言われました。嘘をつけて､日本のことを厭いました。

Without the guide, I might have just ended up looking at the Snow Wall, but thanks to participating in the tour, I was able to walk on the snowfields of Murodo and conduct various experiments, learning about how to build snow walls and the properties and characteristics of snow. There was also a fun tea time with coffee and cocoa prepared by the guide, which was really enjoyable. I was very satisfied to see the rock ptarmigan as well.

ガイドがなかったら、雪の大谷 を見るだけで 終わっていたかもしれませんが、ツアーに参加したおかげで、 室堂平の雪原を歩いて、いろんな実験をしたり、 雪の壁の作り方や雪の性質や特徴を学びました。ガイドさんが 用意してくれたコーヒーやココアで 楽しいティータイムもあって、とっても楽しかったです。ライチョウも見ることができて 大満足でした。

I went out to play with my 4-year-old and 9-year-old children. There are many places where young children can't play due to age restrictions, but there were plenty of activities suitable for each age, and we were very satisfied! Since it was New Year's, there were free events for families, and it was a huge hit! The prizes were so extravagant that the adults were more excited than the kids! It's about a 15-minute ride from New Chitose Airport by free shuttle bus, so we could play all day without any downtime and enjoyed ourselves from the very first day!

4歳と9歳の子供と遊びに行きました。幼児だと年齢制限で遊べないところが多い中、それぞれの年齢に合ったアクティビティがたくさんあり大満足でした！お正月だったこともあり、家族で参加できる無料イベントが開催されており大盛り上がり！景品も豪華すぎてどの家族も子供たちより大人が張り切ってしまうくらい‼︎‼︎新千歳空港から無料送迎バスで15分くらいのところにあるのでロスタイムもなく1日中遊べて初日から満喫できました！

From the confirmation contact the day before, I received polite guidance and hospitality. Walking on the snow with snowshoes and sticks was very enjoyable. I found animal tracks and learned about the vegetation and the formation of rime ice, which was extremely interesting, providing an experience akin to cross-country skiing. I thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful snowy scenery and felt a luxurious sense of having the silver world all to myself, and the tea time there was also a wonderful moment. Equipment such as ski wear and shoes were available for rent, making it easy to participate.

前日の確認連絡時から、丁寧なご案内とおもてなしを頂戴いたしました。
スノーシューとスティクで、雪上を歩くのはとても楽しかったです。
動物の足跡を見つけたり、植生について、樹氷の成り立ちなど、たいへん興味深く、まるでクロスカントリーのような体験ができました。
素晴らしい雪景色を満喫し、白銀の世界をひとりじめしたかのような贅沢な気分を味わえ、そこでのティータイムもまた素晴らしいひと時でした。
用具もスキーウェアや靴もお借りでき、お手軽に参加することができます。

I arrived at the airport at 8:30 AM and took a taxi to the location to enjoy a lot of fun during the early hours when it was less crowded. The fare was 3,200 yen. I came early after reading reviews about large groups of tour guests, but perhaps due to the low amount of snow in mid-January, it was consistently empty.

I thought maybe coming early wasn’t necessary, but I was able to enjoy all the attractions for three hours without missing anything, which gave me plenty of time and peace of mind for my subsequent plans. In the end, I think it was a great decision.

My 3-year-old son's favorite was the snow tube. We started with two people and then moved on to one person. We had a lot of freedom, sliding together as a family and riding on our stomachs.

The snow rafting was also a hit, as we were able to ride multiple times in a row until the next group of waiting guests arrived!

I also tried walking on skis, but since it was my first time wearing them, I had to give up halfway. I look forward to trying again next time!

Additionally, we had fun making snowmen and snowballs, and we could borrow props for classic snow play.

My husband and I took turns experiencing the snowmobile and buggy, which were only for adults, but they lacked bumps and speed, so we only rode them once each.

On the way back, we took the Chitose bus that departed at 1 PM. My son fell asleep on the bus!

It was a very enjoyable half-day. Thank you for everything! 😊♪

今回空港に朝8時半到着し、朝イチの空いてる時間にガッツリ遊ぼうと、タクシーで現地入りしました。料金は3200円。ツアー客の大群などのレビューを見て早目に来ましたが、一月中旬で雪も少なめだった影響か、終始空いてました。
早目に来ることもなかったかなと思いましたが、すべてのアトラクションを余すことなく３時間遊び放題で遊び込めて、その後の予定にも時間的にも心的にも余裕ができたので、結果的に大正解だったと思います。
３歳息子の1番のお気に入りは、スノーチューブ。二人乗りから初めて、途中からから1人乗りを始めました。家族で連結しながら滑ったり、うつ伏せに乗ったり、自由度も高かったです。
スノーラフティングも、つぎの待機客が来るまでは、何度も連続で乗せてもらったりとヒットしてました！
歩くスキーも挑戦しましたが、はじめて履いたこともあり、片道でリタイアでした。次に期待！
他にも、雪だるまや雪玉を作ったり、定番の雪遊びも小道具を借りれるので楽しく遊べました。
大人しか体験できないスノーモービルとバギーも夫婦で交代で体験しましたが、凹凸もなければ、スピードもなく、物足りなく、一度ずつしか乗りませんでした。
帰りは13時発空港行きのぐるぐる千歳に乗って帰りました。息子はバスの中で爆睡！
とても楽しい半日となりました。お世話になりましたー(^^)♪
