Hello Veltra,
Just wanted to share the great experience I had on the Mt Fuji Tour package with Jojo. This tour was my second time in six years and lived up to expectations each time. I especially want thank Jojo who was very professional, personable and courteous. The trip to Mt Fuji was terrific but, especially terrific because of Jojo’s effervescence as Japanese cultural background Ambassador and delivered it with humor and kindness,
Thank you all for an amazing day!

This was my first time using the service.
Aside from my husband and me, the other participants were foreigners.
I am very satisfied with the tour itself, but as a Japanese person, I felt a bit uneasy, as if I had blended in with an Asian foreign tour group.

Since I was traveling alone, I joined a tour, but I'm not good with group activities and I dislike feeling rushed. I chose this tour because it seemed like we would take our time, and it turned out to be a great decision. The guide was very kind, and I had a wonderful time. Thank you!

I made a reservation to ride the trolley train and thought I would return by river rafting.
The river rafting itself was very enjoyable. Although it was a long time, the stories were interesting and the scenery was beautiful, so I had a wonderful time. I went with my mother, who is in her 60s, and she said she enjoyed it too, which was great.
However, it was very crowded, and even though I had a reservation, I had to wait in line to write my name, and there was quite a wait before boarding, so I would give it a ⭐︎ minus one.
トロッコ列車に乗り、帰りは川下りで帰ろうと思い予約させていただきました。
川下り自体はとても楽しかったです。時間も長いですが、お話も面白く、景色も綺麗なので素敵な時間を過ごすことがでしました。60代の母と行きましたが、母も楽しかったと言ってくれたので良かったです。
ですが、とても混んでいて、予約して行ったのに名前を記入する列に並び、さらに乗船まで待ち時間がなかなかあったので⭐︎マイナス1です。

I was able to participate in a tour of Shirakawa-go, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, and my wish came true. When viewed up close, it has a powerful presence, but from a distance, I found it to be quite charming. Before joining this tour, I wasn't very familiar with Gokayama, but after visiting both places, I could really feel the difference in the atmosphere of the villages, which was wonderful. Next time, I would like to see the thatched-roof houses covered in snow.
ずっと訪れてみたかった白川郷のツアーに参加できて、念願が叶いました。

Dear Solo Traveler,
Thank you for participating in our tour. We are glad that you were able to fulfill your long-held dream of visiting the gassho-zukuri villages on your solo trip. Thank you. Although there are two World Heritage sites of gassho-zukuri, they are often thought to be similar, but in reality, they are completely different worlds. Each has its own charm, and many visitors feel they have encountered the original landscapes of Japan.
We hope you will come to see the gassho-zukuri in winter.

It felt a bit challenging with all the movement, but I was glad to visit places I wouldn't normally go. I was taken to some great locations.
However, I was disappointed that the internal guide only spoke Korean, with Japanese only providing the meeting time and minimal information. It would have been nice to hear more enjoyable details about the scenery and local information from the bus guide. I think the Korean guide was probably saying other things too. For Japanese people, the tour felt somewhat lacking.
移動が多くて少し大変な感じもするけど、自分ではなかなか行けない所へ行けたので良かった。
良い場所に連れて行ってもらいました。
ただ、社内ガイドが韓国語だけで日本語は集合時間とか最低限のお知らせしかなかったのが不満。

The guide was a young woman who was very kind and pleasant. Since there were foreign participants, she explained everything in English that she had worked hard to learn. It was forecasted to rain, so they had plenty of umbrellas available for loan, and the shuttle bus to the viewpoint in Shirakawa-go, along with information about hidden photo spots and recommended souvenirs, was very helpful. I was unsure whether to just take the bus back and forth or join the tour, but I'm glad I chose the tour. We were able to have lunch right away, and the meeting point for the bus was very easy to find and convenient. There were many women participating alone, including myself, and I could see why it was popular, as there were stylish restaurants, cafes, and shops amidst the traditional Japanese scenery. The group bus meeting point was where we gathered in the morning, but I was confused and wandered around the rotary for the local and sightseeing buses for a while. I figured out the mistake after asking at the information center and ran to catch up, but I think it would be clearer if they provided additional explanations, such as not just "Kanazawa Station West Exit," but also in front of the Hilton Hotel or at the back of the rotary on the right side after exiting the station.
若い女性のガイドさんでしたが、とても親切で、感じの良い方でした。外国人も参加されていたため、一生懸命覚えた英語で説明していました。雨が降る予報でしたので、たくさん貸し出し傘を用意してたり、白川郷の展望台へのシャトルバス、穴場のフォトスポットやおすすめのお土産など、情報もありがたかったです。普通にバスで往復するのと、どちらにしようか迷いましたが、ツアーにして良かったです。お昼ごはんもすぐ食べられたし、バスの待ち合わせ場所もとてもわかりやすく便利な場所でした。女性の一人参加が多く、私もそうでしたが、日本の原風景の中に、ちょっとおしゃれなレストラン、カフェや雑貨屋さんがあって、人気があるのも頷けました。団体バス乗り場が朝の集合場所だったのですが、分からなくて、しばらく路線バスと定期観光バスのロータリーをウロウロしてました。案内所で聞いて間違いがわかって走りましたが、「金沢駅西口」だけでなく、ヒルトンホテル前、または駅を出て右側のロータリー奥、など説明を付けてもらえたらわかりやすいと思います。
Dear Mikko-chan,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day.
Since our vehicles are "authorized vehicles," we have the advantage of being able to enter the village, unlike regular cars and tourist buses. This allows us to park in the center of the village, making it convenient and efficient for your exploration time.
Thank you for your high overall rating. How about visiting during a different season next time?

It's a two-hour course. There aren't many bus tours that can take you to Hida Takayama and Shirakawa-go in a day, so it was fantastic. It might be a bit busy for two hours, but when you think about driving round trip from Nagoya for six hours in a rental car, I believe the bus tour is more comfortable. While renting a car does offer flexibility with time, I think driving after walking a lot during sightseeing can be quite tiring. Plus, you won't be able to enjoy the local sake, right? Anyway, it turned out to be an amazing trip. Thank you very much!

There was no Japanese guide since I was on the same bus as Chinese tourists, and only one Japanese person. The reception was in Japanese, but the guide spoke entirely in Chinese, and the instructions were given in Chinese followed by only a few words in Japanese with a Chinese accent, making it difficult to understand. After several minutes of explanation in Chinese, the instructions in Japanese, like "10 minutes," were just single words indicating when to gather. While I can hold a basic conversation, I would prefer clear Japanese instructions for confirmations about meeting times and locations. Additionally, there are places where the meeting point is listed as Fukuoka Station instead of Hakata Station, which should be corrected. The tourist spots were good, but I felt the time spent there was too short.
中国人観光客と同じバスで日本人1人のせいか日本語ガイドなし。受付は日本語でしたがガイドは全て中国語で、行動指示は中国語のあとに中国語なまりの日本語での単語のみなので日本語と理解できませんでした。何分も中国語での説明に続けて日本語で「10分」など10分後に集合するという意味の指示も単語でした。日常会話はできるが、ガイドとして何時にどこで集合などハッキリした日本語で本人への確認をして欲しいです。システムの集合場所の表記も博多駅を福岡駅と表記されてる箇所あるので修正した方がいいです。
観光地は良かったが滞在時間は短く感じました。

Recommended Points: A day trip bus tour departing from Fukuoka to enjoy the stunning views and history of Miyazaki and Takachiho.
Includes: Lunch / Bus fare / Guide fee (available in Japanese, English, and Chinese) / Insurance fee
Schedule: Takachiho Gorge (approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes)
This information was found on Veltra's page.
For this bus tour, there were two vehicles: one for Japanese participants and one for international guests.
1. There were too few guides...
When we arrived at Amano Iwato Shrine and Amano Yasugawara, could you at least introduce a god or share one of the myths? (There seemed to be too many introductions to souvenir shops.)
2. Can you stick to the schedule...?
According to the schedule, lunch was supposed to be at 12:00, but we arrived at Takachiho Gorge at 12:22, and we reached the restaurant at 12:45. After arranging the seats, lunch was served at 12:55.
The guide mentioned we would stay at Takachiho Gorge for one hour.
There is quite a difference between "90 minutes" and "60 minutes," don't you think?
As a bus tour: 4 stars, as a guide: 2 stars. Average: 3 stars.
We arrived at the sightseeing spots properly, thank you.
There are people overseas who want to know about Japanese stories.
Fortunately, I did some research before departing, so I could manage without explanations.
It was really disappointing as my expectations were not met.
おすすめポイント: 福岡発着、宮崎・高千穂の絶景や歴史を満喫する日帰りバスツアー。
含まれるもの: 昼食 / バス代 / ガイド代(日英中対応可能) / 保険料
スケジュール: 高千穂峡 (約1時間30分)
以上、Veltraのページに載っていました。
今回のバスツアー、車は2台でした。日本の方一台、海外の方一台。
1.ガイドが少ない…
天岩戸神社&天安河原に着いたら、せめて神様の紹介や神話の一つを言ってくださいませんか。(土産屋の紹介が多すぎませんか?)
2.スケジュールを守ってもらえますか…
スケジュールによるとランチは12時のはずだ、
あの日高千穂峡に着いたのはもう12時22分、そして12:45にレストランに到着、席の手配が終わった、ランチは12時55分でした。
ガイドさんは高千穂峡に1時間滞在しますと言っていました。
”90分”と”60分”で結構な差があります、そう思いませんか?
バスとして:星4、ガイドとして:星2。平均:星3。

Since it was a holiday, there were about 25 groups from various countries, but the tour guide explained everything in Japanese, English, and Chinese, so we had no problems. It was a tour that, for better or worse, was just about being taken to the destination, but it was great that we could explore freely once we got there. The roads were congested, causing significant delays, but we were given a full two hours of sightseeing time at each location. Thank you for a meaningful experience!

I applied for this tour without knowing it was for Chinese tourists. I was the only Japanese person, and it felt like I had traveled abroad while being in Japan.
Without any prior notice, the guide started speaking in Chinese, and I began to worry that there wouldn't be any Japanese guidance. Fortunately, they provided the minimum information regarding the meeting place and time, but after that, I felt a bit neglected. It seemed like they assumed that since I was Japanese, I could manage on my own.
Just because I'm Japanese doesn't mean I know the places, and I wanted explanations about the history and locations. When I asked, "What is this place about?" the guide replied, "I'm Chinese, so I don't know. Other Japanese people research before coming, so I don't provide explanations." When I asked, "What kind of explanations do you give to the Chinese guests?" they said, "We don't convey much detailed history to the Chinese either; they are satisfied with just knowing it's a beautiful place."
I was surprised… with so many Chinese visitors, it was disappointing that nothing about Japanese culture was being conveyed, just the photo opportunities. It might be a cultural difference, and ultimately, I was satisfied with the itinerary since it allowed me to visit places I wouldn't have been able to on my own in a single day. This experience made me realize how diligent and passionate Japanese guides are.
The Chinese tourists in the tour were polite, quiet during meals, and punctual, so I didn't feel any discomfort in that regard. More than the content of the tour, the way the tour was conducted was quite different from what I'm used to in Japan, and that left a lasting impression on me.
こちら、中国人のためのツアーとは知らず申し込みました。私一人が日本人で、日本にいながら海外旅行に来たようでした。
何も告げられないまま、ガイドさんも中国語で話しはじめ、最初日本語のガイドはされないのではと心配になりました。
幸い最低限の集合場所、時間などの案内はしてくれますが、あとはほったらかし。
大勢の中国人相手しているんだから、日本人は自分でどうにかできるでしょう、といわんばかりの案内に少しガッカリしました。
日本人だからと場所のことを知っている訳では無いですし、歴史や場所の説明をして欲しかったのですが「この場所はどういうところなんですか?」と聞くとガイドさんは「私は中国人だからわからない、他の日本人は調べてから来るから説明はしてない」とのこと。。
「では中国の方にはどういう説明を?」と聞いたら「中国人にもあまり細かい歴史は伝えていない、綺麗な場所というだけで満足する」と。
ビックリというか…これだけ中国の方が来ているのに写真映えだけで、何も日本の文化が伝わっていないのかと残念でした。
文化の違いなのかもしれませんし、最終的には1人ではなかなか一日で回れないところを回ってくれるので行程には満足していますが、今回、改めて日本のガイドさんがいかに勤勉で熱心にガイドしてくれてるのかわかりました。
ツアーにいた中国人旅行客の方々は礼儀正しく、食事時も静かで時間も守ってくれるのでそのあたりには違和感ありませんでした。
ツアーの内容よりも、ツアーの仕方が日本のものとだいぶ違うのでそこの方が印象に残っています。

It was great to be able to visit Shirakawa-go and Gokayama together. The guide skillfully used English while accommodating many foreign tourists. The driver also made us feel warm with just a simple "Have a good time" and "Welcome back" during our departures and arrivals. In the end, all the passengers gave a big round of applause to both of them.
白川郷と五箇山がセットで観光できたのは良かった。ガイドさんは、外国人観光客が多い中、英語を巧みに駆使し、精一杯対応していた。運転手さんも、観光での乗降の際、行ってらっしゃい、おかえりなさい、とたった一言ではあるが、気持ちがほっこりとした。最後には、乗客全員がお二人に大きな拍手を送った。
Dear Oji,
Thank you for participating in our tour. I believe it is rare to be able to visit both World Heritage sites in one day. Even though they are simply gassho-zukuri villages, I think you were able to feel the distinct characteristics that make them completely different from one another. The village you imagined before visiting and the one you experienced in person must have provided you with a valuable experience unique to you. We hope to assist everyone in enjoying their visits (and strolls) as comfortably as possible. Thank you very much.
Staff on the day, Kuroda

弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
一日で両方の世界遺産巡りが出来るのは珍しいと思います。単なる合掌造り集落と言っても似てるようで全く違った特徴あることを感じられたと思います。訪れる前に想像していた集落、実際に行かれて感じられた集落、オジ~様なりに貴重な体験されたと思います。私たちは、皆さまに気持ち良く見学(散策)できるよう少しでもお手伝い出来ればと思っています。ありがとうございました。

It was a trip in heavy rain, but thanks to Mr. Kuroda's thoughtfulness and care, we were able to have a wonderful time. My husband and I, being in an international marriage, enjoyed a fun bus trip without getting bored thanks to Mr. Kuroda's English. We are planning to go again in winter. Thank you very much.
土砂降りの中での旅行でしたが、黒田さんの心配りと気遣いでとても素晴らしい時間を過ごす事ができました。主人と私は国際結婚のため黒田さんの英語で2人とも退屈する事なく楽しいバスでの旅行が出来ました。次回は冬に行こうと話しております。ありがとうございました。
Dear Angela,
Thank you for participating in our tour the other day. The seats were nearly full that day, and the weather was rainy. We always strive to ensure that everyone who has reserved for this day enjoys their experience. Whether it's sunny, cloudy, or rainy, there are unique views that can only be seen on that day. Depending on the weather, there are many sights that are not usually visible, allowing you to enjoy the scenery of each season.
I am very pleased to hear that you both felt it was the "best trip." Thank you very much.
Please consider visiting Shirakawa-go in its pristine white season next time. You are likely to experience unexpected emotions.

先日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。あの日、座席はほぼ満席状態で、天気も雨でしたね。ずいぶん前からこの日のツアーをご予約されてる皆さまには、当日を楽しんで頂きたいと常日ごろ心掛けています。晴れだったり、曇っていたり、雨降りでも、この日しか見られない景色があります。季節ごとに景色を楽しめるように、天候しだいで普段見られない景色がたくさんあります。
アンジェラ様お二人が「最高の旅」と感じていただき大変うれしく思います。ありがとうございます。
ぜひ、次回は真っ白な季節の白川郷を訪れてみて下さい。おそらく思いがけない感動ありますよ。

The guide was very kind, and the stay in Takayama and Shirakawa-go was just the right length of two hours—not too long and not too short. I enjoyed strolling around the streets and eating delicious food. I thought it would be nice to stay overnight in Shirakawa-go someday.
ガイドさんが親切な方でしたし、飛騨高山、白川郷の滞在は、長すぎず短すぎずの2時間で、個人的にはちょうどよい長さでした。ぶらぶらしながら街並みを楽しんだり、美味しいものを食べたりして過ごしました。白川郷はいつか宿泊してみたいなぁと思いました。

I wanted to efficiently explore Takachiho, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, so I joined a bus tour with my friend. However! There were only two groups of Japanese people, including us, and the rest were all international tourists (^^;) We started about 20 minutes late from the meeting time, so at first, my friend and I were thinking it was going to be a disaster... but after that, everyone else adhered to the meeting time, and we were able to fully enjoy Takachiho without any major confusion! The guide was from China, but after explaining in Chinese, they always spoke in Japanese as well. I was really grateful for all the consideration they showed us. The driver also said a few words when we got off the bus, making our experience very comfortable. I honestly didn't expect so many international visitors, so I was a bit confused at first, but in the end, it was a lot of fun and became a wonderful memory of Kyushu ^_^ Thank you very much!
ずっと行ってみたかった高千穂を効率よく回りたいと思い、友達とバスツアーに参加しました。
が!日本人は私達ともう1組のみ、他は全て海外からの観光客ばかりでした(^^;)
集合時間から20分程遅れて出発したので、始めのうちは最悪だね…と友達と話していたのですが、それ以降は皆さん集合時間をちゃんと守られていたので、大きな混乱なく高千穂をしっかり満喫することができました!
ガイドさんは中国の方でしたが、中国語で説明をした後に必ず日本語で話をしてくださいました。
いろいろ気にかけていただいて、本当にありがたかったです。
運転手さんもバスを降りる時に一言声をかけてくださるなど、とても快適に過ごせました。
海外の方がこれほど多いとは想像もしていなかったので、正直最初は戸惑いましたが、終わってみればすごく楽しかったし、九州のいい思い出になりました^_^
ありがとうございました!

There were about 25 participants, and I was the only Japanese person. The driver was the only Japanese person, which somehow made me feel reassured. (laughs) I think the tour guide was probably Chinese.
Since there were participants from various countries, there were no greetings on the bus and no local guidance. It’s necessary to accept that the tour guide is not a guide in the traditional sense. (laughs) However, they clearly communicated the meeting times, distributed brochures tailored to each country before arriving at each location, and provided simple explanations in broken language.
This may not be suitable for those expecting the services of a large Japanese travel company’s bus tour, but it was absolutely fine for me. I was able to visit places that are difficult to reach individually, enjoy sightseeing comfortably by bus, and had a wonderful day.
That said, there were indeed participants from various countries this time, but everyone adhered to the meeting times, there were no loud talkers, and everyone was quite reasonable, which might have been lucky. It might be better for those participating in this tour to not expect too much of a Japanese-style experience.
In any case, I had a great time sightseeing without any issues. Thank you for a fun day!
約25名の参加者で日本人は私だけでした。
運転手さんは唯一日本の方で何となく心強かったです。笑
添乗員さんは多分中国の方だと思います。
色々な国の参加者の方が居られましたのでバス内で挨拶もないし現地の案内もありません。ガイドさんではなく添乗員さん、と割り切るのが必要です。 笑
でも集合時間を分かりやすく伝えてくれたり、各地到着前に各国に合わせたパンフレットを配ってくれたり、片言で簡単な説明してくれたり、と、
日本の大型旅行会社のバスツアーサービスを期待してる方には向かないかもですが、私には全く問題ありませんでした。
個人では行きにくい場所にゆったりとバスで連れて行って貰えて観光も満喫でき、楽しい1日となりました。
ただ、今回は本当に様々な国の方が居られましたが、皆様しっかりと集合時間を守り、大声で喋る方も居ないし、常識ある方ばかりだったのがラッキーだったのかも知れません。
そこは参加者の方で差があるかもなのでこのツアーはあまり日本式を求めないで参加する方がいいかもです。
とにもかくにも私は何も問題なく楽しく観光させていただきました。
楽しい1日をありがとうございました

The bus was fully booked with over 40 participants. I was the only Japanese person, along with one Italian, one Canadian, and the rest were all Chinese (including Taiwanese and Hong Kong people due to the current situation). The guide could speak both Japanese and English reasonably well, but the guiding content was only in Chinese. However, within the range I could understand, there were many explanations about local specialties, how to worship at shrines and temples, and how to enjoy the lunch menu, which were mostly unnecessary for Japanese participants, so I didn't have any particular difficulties. During lunch, I attended to the Western participants and provided additional explanations in English about the meal and how to eat it (please send me the tips).
As long as you remember the departure time and meeting place (which were explained in both Japanese and English), there shouldn't be any issues. However, the excursion lasting over 12 hours felt a bit too packed. But there was enough time at each location, so it wasn't a rushed tour. There were also ample restroom breaks.
I recommend it if you are confident in your physical stamina.
バスは満席状態で参加人数は40人超え,参加者は日本人が私一人とイタリア人,カナダ人がそれぞれ一人,あとは全員中国人(と言っても情勢から台湾人と香港人)ガイドさんは日本語も英語もそれなりにできるが,ガイド内容は中国語だけ.とはいえ,聞き取れる範囲では,それぞれの街での名物や,神社仏閣の参拝の仕方,ランチメニューの食べ方など,日本人には説明不要なものが多かったので,特に不自由なし.ランチ時は欧米人には私がアテンドし,食事の内容や食べ方を英語で補足説明(ギャラ寄越せ).
出発時間と待ち合わせ場所(これは日本語と英語で説明してくれた)さえ覚えておけば問題なし.
但し12時間超えのエクスカーションは詰め込みすぎの感じも.でも各場所での滞在時間は十分にあったので弾丸ツアーではない.トイレ休憩も万全.
体力に自信があるならおすすめです.

The guide hurried the driver to make up for the late start, which was very scary. The exploration time is tight, but we spend a long time at the partnered souvenir shop.

I signed up for a day trip bus tour from Nagoya to Hida Takayama and Shirakawa-go during the middle of the three-day weekend. I received an immediate "Tour Confirmation Email."
I did some research beforehand, but the meeting place was easy to find, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing with a diverse group of participants.
Our guide was from China, but was fluent in Japanese and had a very kind personality that shone through.
I appreciated their wonderful attitude in answering questions very politely within their knowledge.
The bus driver was also experienced, adapting to traffic conditions with flexible driving, allowing us to stick to the schedule.
I read all the reviews on Veltra, and my elderly parents were able to enjoy the trip wholeheartedly, so I think doing a little research beforehand can make the experience even more enjoyable.
We had two hours in Hida Takayama and two hours in Shirakawa-go, which I felt was just the right amount of time, not shorter than expected.
Above all, even after buying a lot of souvenirs, we could leave them on the bus, and they made sure to count everyone, so no one was left behind. The travel time was also a big advantage, as we could chat or take a nap and relax.
I would like to participate in another tour next time.
And I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the guide and the driver. "It was fun. Thank you for the wonderful time."
三連休の中日に名古屋発、飛騨高山、白川郷の日帰りバスツアーを申し込みました。
すぐに「催行決定お知らせメール」が届きました。
下調べはしましたが、待ち合わせ場所も分かりやすく、国際色豊かな参加者の皆様と、とても楽しく観光することができました。
ガイドさんは中国の方でしたが、日本語が堪能で、とても優しい人柄がにじみ出ている感じでした。
分かる範囲でとても丁寧に質問に応えて下さる姿勢が素敵でした。
バスの運転手さんもベテランなので、渋滞に合わせた臨機応変の運転で、スケジュール通りに回ることができました。
Veltraの口コミも全て見ましたが、年老いた私の両親も心から楽しんで行ってくることができたので、少し調べて行くと、より楽しく過ごせると思います。
飛騨高山2時間、白川郷2時間の滞在時間でしたが、思ったよりも短くなく、丁度よい時間配分だったと思います。
何より、お土産沢山買ってもバスに置けるし、ちゃんと人数確認してくれるので、置いてきぼりにもなりません。
移動時間はおしゃべりしたり、居眠りしたりと、リラックスして過ごすことができるのも大きなメリットでした。
次回も別のツアーに参加してみたいと思います。
そして、ガイドさんと運転手さんには、この場を借りて感謝をお伝えしたいです。
「楽しかったです。素敵な時間をありがとうございました。」
