Japan
On the morning of the tour, when I arrived at the designated location, I found myself surrounded by foreigners, and a person in charge was explaining things in English. While I secretly hoped this might not be the tour I was looking for, I was suddenly called by name. A bit confused, I boarded the bus, but that day turned out to be very enjoyable. The guide was simply the best. She skillfully switched between Japanese and English, providing explanations with plenty of humor and kindness. Jewel (Yoshikawa) took on the role of explaining in two languages consecutively, but she handled everything with care until the end. Having Jewel around gave me an indescribable sense of reassurance, which must be due to her personality. Through the repeated explanations in English and Japanese, I ended up understanding a little bit of English, which was an unexpected gain. Thank you so much, Jewel, for being energetic, cheerful, and kind.
当日の朝、指定の場所に行くと、周りは外国の方ばかりで、担当らしい方が英語で説明されていました。『このツアーではないかも…』と密かな期待を抱きつつ待っていると、いきなり名前を呼ばれてしまいました。少し戸惑いながらもバスに乗り込みましたが、その一日はとても楽しいものになりました。何と言ってもガイドさんが最高でした。日本語と英語を自在に操り、ユーモアたっぷりに、そして親切丁寧に説明してくれました。ジュエルさん(吉川さん)は二か国語で立て続けに説明するので二人分の役割を果たすことになりますが、最後まで丁寧に対応してくれました。ジュエルさんがいると、何とも言えない安心感があり、それは彼女の人柄によるものでしょう。英語と日本語で繰り返される説明で、終いにはほんの少しですが英語も理解できるようになり、思わぬ収穫となりました。元気で明るく、親切なジュエルさん、本当にありがとうございました。
Thank you very much for using LIMON. We are very pleased to have been able to provide you with a great experience. We look forward to your future visits. Thank you.

It was my first time in Shirakawa-go, and I had a great time! The townscape of Takayama was beautiful, and I felt it was a very good tour. I went with my mother, and since most of the travel was by bus, it was easy, and I think the food was very delicious.
白川郷初めてでしたが、とても楽しかったです!高山の町並みも美しく、非常に良いツアーだと感じました。母と行きましたが、ほとんど移動はバスなので、楽でしたし、ご飯もとても
美味しかったとおもいます。
Dear Taeko,
Thank you for participating in our tour and for sharing your valuable experience. We are all delighted to hear that you enjoyed it.
This time, you joined the tour to Shirakawa-go and Takayama, but we also offer a tour to the World Heritage sites of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama. Additionally, from June 20 to October 31, we will be heading to Shirakawa-go via the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road scenic mountain road. The autumn foliage season is particularly recommended. There are also stops along the way where you can see the beautiful autumn leaves.
We hope you will join our tour during that season. Our staff is looking forward to welcoming you.

この度は弊社ツアーに参加、貴重な体験談ありがとうございます。
お楽しみ頂けたご様子でスタッフ一同喜んでおります。
今回は白川郷・高山へいくツアーでしたが、白川郷・五箇山の世界遺産へいくツアーもございます。
また、6月20日~10月31日の期間は「白山白川郷ホワイトロード」観光山岳道路を経由して白川郷へ向かいます。なんといってもおすすめは紅葉の時期です。途中下車するところもあり、とてもきれいな紅葉が見られます。
是非その時期になりましたら弊社ツアーにご参加ください。
スタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。
The tour was well worth the money. Yoshi was a very knowledgeable and interesting guide. All the places seen were very good (pity blossom had come early so did not see a grand display). Although the azaleas were very colourful.
The tower was very good and the views from the top excellent. Imperial Palace gardens and other gardens were colourful.
A wonderful excursion I would recommend.
The tour was well organized.
The tour guide was well informed and communicated all the details in a orderly basis.
We were given ample time to enjoy the sights.
Well done
I found a tour while planning my solo trip to Kanazawa, and although I had some concerns, I was able to fully enjoy it thanks to a fluent interpreter and a friendly driver.
There are several paid Gassho-zukuri houses that you can visit, and the staff even took photos for us and offered us tea.
Personally, I recommend the shrine located in Gokayama. There is a magnificent tree with a thick trunk there.
金沢ひとり旅を計画中に見つけたツアーで、ちょっと不安もありましたが、日本語堪能な通訳の方と気さくな運転手さんのおかげで満喫できました
有料ですが見学できる合掌作りのお宅が数件あり、店員さんも写真撮影してくれお茶もいただきました
個人的に五箇山にある神社をおすすめします
乳根のある立派な木があります
Dear Anju,
Thank you for participating in our tour. Many of our customers join us alone. I also travel solo sometimes, and I understand it can be quite nerve-wracking. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask anything in the message section. I will do my best to address your worries.
On the day of the tour, don't hesitate to ask our staff any questions you may have.
I feel warm seeing a glimpse of your journey through your experience. It seems you had wonderful encounters with both people and places. Thank you for sharing the photo of the shrine.
We hope you will join our tour again when you visit Hokuriku.

The day before, I came to Osaka for a concert. Since I was staying for one night anyway, I decided to join this bus tour to Kyoto on the second day. There were only two Japanese people, including me, which was quite funny! On the bus, it felt like an overseas trip! The bus guide was very kind and during our free time, they shared wonderful spots with us. I enjoyed Kyoto more than enough!
前日に、コンサートの為大阪に来ました。どうせ一泊するのなら、2日目は、京都まで行こうと、こちらのバスツアーに参加日本人は、私含めて2人 笑笑笑 逆にバスの中では、海外旅行気分!バスガイドさん、とても親切で、フリータイムでは、素敵なスポットを教えて頂け、十分すぎるくらい、京都満喫しました!

This is the second evaluation sent to me by your company. As written on the first evaluation, the tour went off explicitly well. When our tour guide Ken Takahashi introduced himself to the group @ Yokohama Port, he has this pleasing smile with an excellent diction in English. We have had a quality tour and he explained to us important and interesting highlights of the different era on the Japanese history.
On behalf of the group, we would like to extend our appreciation to Ken Takahashi, tour guide and driver Mr.Higashi san for making our day in Tokyo a memorable one.
Dear Evelyn,
It was very nice to have you and your friends in Japan the other day. We are glad to know you enjoyed both contemporary and traditional Japan during the tour. We do hope you visit Japan again not too distant future and allow us to have another opportunity to take you to other fantastic places in this beautiful country. Once again, we appreciate your choosing our company and encouraging evaluation to us.
Great tour , very patient tour leader, courteous driver. Surely give us memorable moment at Japan. Outstanding tour
Mr. Tom, our personal guide took us to the Kawakuchiko lake to see Mt. Fuji and we were very lucky that it was a bright and sunny day that we can see the Mt. Fuji clearly. Our guide let us move onto the next sightseeing spots at our own pace so it is very enjoyable for the whole family!
We were disappointed with the tour. A long trip to a Park. A boat ride under a lot of bridges which was interrupted by the Guide wanting to know if we wanted the Bus back or would go our own way. Were told it might be 8pm before we got back. We hadn't been able to book into our Hotel before the tour and would need to find food etc so, 8pm was too late for us. We left the tour after the Boat trip and found your own way back by Train.
We found the tour guide very hard to understand and she talked non-stop about many uninteresting things or maybe we just couldn't understand her properly.
We would have like to see some points of interest like a Shrine or two, Tokyo Tower etc.
Sorry can't recommend this one.
Very professional. Had a great day. Guide was wonderful.
Thank you for joining our tour and many thanks for your comments. We will continue to provide a good travel products future.
Yoshi was an excellent guide. He showed us around well and was a good source of information. We would like to thank him very much.
Dear Izham
I'm very glad to see your comments and five stars.
I'll be with you in anywhere Japan if you have a chance to come to Japan again.
I hope your business will be prosperous forever.
I'm dreaming if I could perform as a Jazz singer in your music program in Malaysia.
Good luck!
Yoshi
Endo-San was waiting for us at the appointed time in our hotel, he is truly fluent and an excellent guide and we had a knowledgeable and fun day. The other thing that was memorable was our udon lunch in a small restaurant (inn?) which was both delicious and good value. We ended the wonderful day with 45 minutes in an onsen - my first in an open-air onsen, looking at Mt Fuji. Of course thanks to God who gave us perfect weather and thus a marvellous view of the mountain. I would recommend Endo-San to anyone traveller.
Even though I applied through Belldra, there was no indication of Belldra at the bus waiting area, so I was confused. I would like to see more signage indicating Belldra at the waiting area. The guide was very helpful, and there were no issues. It was a fun trip.
ベルドラで申し込んだのに バス待合所のところには、ベルドラと書いておらず わからなかった。もう少し待合所には ベルドラとの記載をしてほしい。
ガイドの方は、すごくよくしてくれて 問題なし。楽しく過ごせた旅でした。
Thank you very much for using LIMON.
We sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback.
We will consider ways to improve the guidance method for the meeting point to enhance customer convenience in the future.
We look forward to your continued patronage.

This tour made me enjoy seeing Mt Fuji at our own pace. We were picked up by a good driver and a knowledgeable tour guide. Upon riding the van wee discussed first the final.itinerary. the guide Akiko detailed out the places we were visiting and their significance. So we proceeded as planned to the heritage center shrine lunch near the pond and the lake. My family enjoyed it very much especially at our own pace. I highly recommend this tour to small groups.
we were very lucky to join the Grand Tour of Tokyo organised by VELTRA with English guide.
This tour includes the paranomic view of Tokyo from Tokyo Tower. Next we went to Meiji Shrine and later the Imperial Palace East Garden and we were very lucky to see the Cherry blossom almost at full bloom.
The bus also brought us a drive though Ginza Shopping district, The Diet Building and Akasaka Guest House.
Typical delicious Japanese lunch was provided by this tour.
The Sumida River Cruise is one of the highlights of this tour which brought us to Asakusa Temple. We were able to experience a wonderful cruise with Sakura in full bloom on both sides of the river.
The shops lining towards Asakusa Kannon Temple is a must for Tokyo tourists. We bought a lot Japanese souvenirs and gifts from the many little interesting shops.
We had the opportunity to see Ueno and Akihabara in the evening when the bus drove though the area on the way to drop off point.
Overall is a fantastic experience for both of us,
. Thank you very much VELTRA tour.
I participated with my mother!
It was my first bus tour, and I was nervous about how it would go, but the tour guide was very friendly, kind, and attentive, which was a great help.
There were some route changes, but the timing was as scheduled, and the duration of our stay was just right!
Although there were only international participants, thanks to the tour guide's thorough explanations and excellent organization, everyone was able to enjoy the trip safely without getting lost.
Thank you very much to the tour guide and the driver!
It became a wonderful memory, and I would like to use your services again.
Thank you for a fun trip to Kyoto!
母と二人で参加させて頂きました!
初めてのバスツアー、どうなることやら?とドキドキしていましたが、添乗員のおじ様がとても気さくで優しく、丁寧で助かりました^ ^
ルート変更などありましたが、時間も予定通りでしたし、滞在時間もちょうど良かったです!
海外の方ばかりの参加でしたが、添乗員さんの丁寧な説明や段取りの良さで、皆さん迷うことなく安全に過ごすことができました。
添乗員さん、運転手さん、本当にありがとうございました!
とても良い思い出にもなり、また利用させて頂きたく思っています。
楽しい京都旅行をありがとうございました!

It was very easy to get around by bus. The guide was also very kind and helpful. I enjoyed the rice cracker experience as well. Thank you very much.
バスで移動できるので、とても楽でした。ガイドの方もとても親切な方で、助かりました。おせんべい体験も楽しめました。ありがとうございました。
Dear 793,
Thank you for participating in our tour. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the bus tour.
While we provide a brief introduction to various locations, as a tour conductor, I may not be able to offer as detailed information as a bus guide. However, I am continuously studying to assist you in your travels as much as possible.
If you have the opportunity, I hope you will visit the Hokuriku region and the Hida region again.

この度は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
バスツアーを楽しんでいただけたご様子で大変うれしく思います。
各地の簡単なご案内をさせて頂いておりますが、
添乗員ですのでバスガイドさんのように詳しくご案内できませんが、
少しでも皆様の旅のお手伝いができればと思い日々勉強しております。
また機会がございましたら、北陸地方、飛騨地方に足を運んでいただければと思います。
I went on a family trip to Kanazawa for the first time. Since it was a special occasion, I decided to join this tour to see the World Heritage site of Shirakawa-go, which is not easy to visit often. The tour allowed us to take our time at each landmark, and we were able to see everything leisurely. The guide provided clear explanations in two languages, making it an enjoyable trip. I would like to use this service again.
初めて金沢に家族旅行で行きました。せっかくなので中々行けない白川郷の世界遺産を見ようと思って本ツアーに参加しました。
各名所もしっかり時間を、取ったツアーでゆっくり見れました。
ガイドの二ヶ国を使いわかりやすく説明してくれて楽しい旅になりました。
また利用したいと思いました。
Dear Akihiro0911,
Thank you for participating in our tour. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your trip.
This time, you experienced a tour that allowed you to fully enjoy the World Heritage sites of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, but we also offer a tour to Shirakawa-go and Takayama. During the period from June 20 to October 31, both tours will take you to Shirakawa-go via the "Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road," a scenic mountain road that offers a view of "Hakusan," one of Japan's three famous mountains. The best time to enjoy the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road is undoubtedly during the autumn foliage season. You can enjoy the natural beauty of the leaves without any artificial enhancements, so we hope you can visit Ishikawa Prefecture during that time.
あきひろ0911様
この度は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
旅を楽しまれたご様子でこちらも大変嬉しくなります。
今回は白川郷と五箇山の世界遺産を満喫するツアーでしたが、白川郷と高山へ行くツアーもございます。
両ツアーは6月20日~10月31日の期間は、日本三名山の一つ「白山」を望むことが出来る
「白山白川郷ホワイトロード」という観光山岳道路を経由して白川郷へ向かいます。
白山白川郷ホワイトロードのおすすめは何といっても紅葉の時季です。
人工的なものが一切加えられていない、自然そのものの紅葉をお楽しみ頂けますので
是非その時期に石川県に遊びに来ていただければと思います。
Our group of 4 had a great time with our guide Masa.
We wanted to view Mt Fuji but the weather only allowed us to see mostly the base.
Masa customized the itinerary so we could make the most of the tour, we saw Mt Fuji base, Oshino Hakkai ponds, Kirin Whiskey Distillery and the Cherry Blossom Festival in Matsuda.
We highly recommend this private tour :)
Taiji Endo san was our tour guide who provided us (a group of 8 people) excellent service. He accommodated our requests due to plan changes and suggested some fabulous ideas to our visits in Hakone. We all enjoyed every moments and had lot of laughter and good stories from Taiji.
We highly recommend Taiji and Veltra for your next visits to Japan.
Edith
We unfortunately were not able to see Mt Fuji on our tour. We instead had a wonderful tour and tasting at the Hakushu Distillary. I highly recommend!
Finished the day at the hot springs...bliss!
Though I was expecting that the sky will get more clear in the afternoon, there are unfortunately days with bad visibility. Despite what we missed, I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the tasting at the Hakushu wiskey disillery and hot spring.
Hopefully looking forward to seeing you in the future.
Cheers!
Guides were excellent... if you are on short trip this is excellent tour to get acquainted with the main attractions in Tokyo.
Two days ago, the Hokuriku region experienced record-breaking heavy snowfall! I was worried about whether the tour would proceed with participants coming from Hokkaido, but we departed as scheduled on a fully booked bus. The guide was very cheerful, skilled in explanations, and incorporated fluent English, keeping us engaged on our way to the destination. The snowy Shirakawa-go and Gokayama were charming and impressive. The lunch was even better than I expected. I am grateful for the wonderful memories from this trip.
2日前までは北陸地方は記録的な大雪!
北海道からの参加でツアーが催行されるか心配しましたが、予定通り、満席のバスで出発しました。
ガイドさんはとてもにこやかで説明も上手で流暢な英語も交えて私たちを飽きさせることなく現地へ向かいました。
雪の白川郷、五箇山は趣があり感激でした。
お昼のお料理も期待以上の物でした。
素晴らしい旅の思い出ができて感謝いたします。
Dear My Melody,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. This year, the Hokuriku region has experienced an exceptional heavy snowfall, which occurs only once every ten years, and there were forecasts of heavy snow during the three-day weekend as well.
Our staff discussed whether to proceed with the tour while checking the weather forecast multiple times up until the last minute. After confirming with tourist destinations and stops in Toyama and Gifu Prefectures, we decided to go ahead as both prefectures reported that the snow was not as severe as in Ishikawa Prefecture.
With sufficient snowfall in Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, we believe you were able to enjoy the snowy World Heritage sites even more than usual.
Both the driver and the guide are very pleased to have been able to assist in creating memorable experiences for you.
It seems that Hokkaido is also experiencing heavy snowfall this year, so please take care of yourself and don’t overdo it.
マイメロ様
この度は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
今年の北陸地方は10年に1度あるかないかの豪雪となり、3連休も大雪の予報がでておりました。
前日ギリギリまで催行するかどうかスタッフ一同天気予報を何度も確認しながら議論を重ねましたが、
富山県、岐阜県の観光先、立ち寄り先に確認したところ
幸い、両県とも雪は石川県ほどではないということで催行に踏み切りました。
白川郷、五箇山とも十分な積雪となっておりますので、例年にも増して
雪の世界遺産を堪能いただけたのではと思っております。
ドライバー、ガイド(添乗員)ともマイメロ様の旅の思い出のお手伝いができたこと大変喜んでおります。
北海道も今年は大雪になっているようですが、無理などなされずご自愛くださいませ。
I was able to visit two snow-covered villages, Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, in one day, and I also enjoyed lunch and a rice cracker baking experience.
1日に白川郷・五箇山2つの雪景色の集落を周る事が出来、また昼食とせんべい焼き体験もあって楽しむ事が出来た。
Dear Watanabe,
Thank you for participating in our tour.
I hope you enjoyed the different atmospheres and architectural styles of the UNESCO World Heritage sites, Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, both of which feature traditional gassho-zukuri farmhouses.
Each village offers unique beauty throughout the four seasons, so if you have the opportunity, please consider visiting during a season other than winter.
We are relieved to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for sharing your experience.
渡辺様
この度は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
どちらも世界遺産の白川郷と五箇山では同じ合掌造り集落でも
建物の作り、村の雰囲気など違った趣を楽しめたのではないでしょうか?
どちらの集落も四季折々で違った表情を見せてくれるので、
冬以外の季節も機会がございましたら是非訪ねてみてください。
ツアーを楽しんでいただけご様子でホッとしております。
体験談のご投稿ありがとうございました。
I had a day off while in Osaka for a live event, so I decided to give it a try. I participated alone, but I was able to have a fun day, and I am very grateful for that. I would like to use it again next time. Thank you very much!

We booked this tour for our first day in Japan.
It was a great introduction to Japanese culture and history.
The pickup and timing was all very efficient. The two tour guides where friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining.
The tour was really enjoyable and educative. The sceneries were amazing. The tour guide was very kind and accommodating to assist us and extend extra services to his customers.
It was only frustrating that we did not reach the 5th station since the access was closed due to the climate condition. However, the overall experience was great
I booked a 12 hour private tour for a group of 8 with transportation - October,2017.
Our quide (Taiji) met us at the Yokohama port (we arrived via cruise ship) at the designated time. We visited Rikugien Japanese Gardens, Imperial Palace-East Garden, National Museum of Tokyo, Senso-ji temple & Nakamise St.
We had an amazing lunch and traditional Japanese dinner. The only thing would have been to have some time for shopping. We also went to Shibuya Crossing before returning to Yokohoma. The weather was rainy so that contributed to a long day!
Guide needs a microphone in van so all can hear him.
Our group was VERY pleased with the service and sites!
Do Not hesitate to use Veltra!
Dear Julie
Thank you very much for choosing my service and booked for a whole day tour.
It's been a while and I hope you had some more good times on your cruiser ship discovering different countries and cities around the world.
I'm very happy to have received such nice feedback with 2 very nice pictures.
It was also a good experience for me to have organised a long day tour and have contributed to make you know little better than before.
Please feel free for any assistance in Japan if you or your friend will ever have the chance to come.
I myself enjoyed the dinner in that authentic restaurant.
Thank you for everything.
Taiji Endo
It was very good! I would like to use it again or recommend it! It would probably be tough to visit these three places in one day without a tour or taxi.
とても良かったたです!また利用もしくは紹介したいです!多分ツアーかタクシーでなければこの3ヶ所を1日では厳しいです
