All Reviews for Cruises

I was quite worried about how it would be since it was very cold, but inside it was warm, and the beer and sake were delicious, which made me very satisfied. I experienced this about 40 years ago, and I'm not sure if it's the same company, but the food was also delicious, and there was so much that I couldn't finish it. My American friend was also very pleased and extremely satisfied.

かなり寒くてどうなるかと思いましたが、中は暖かく、ビール、日本酒も美味しくて満足でした。
40年ぐらい前に一度体験しましたが、同じ会社かどうか分かりませんが、料理も美味しくて、食べきれないくらいでした。
アメリカの友人も大変喜んでくれて、大満足でした。

I participated in a group that included everyone from one year old to seniors, and everyone had a great time! For those who are unsure, you're missing out if you don't experience it!

一歳から後期高齢者まで含めたグループで参加しましたが、全員が楽しめました！
迷ってる皆さん、体験しないと損です！

I went on a yakatabune (traditional Japanese houseboat) with my mother, who came from the countryside! The food and the scenery were both amazing, and it became a wonderful memory. We enjoyed the tempura, which was freshly fried and delicious. The boatmen were all cheerful and kind, and both my mother and I were very satisfied. Even though it was a weekday, the boat was almost full, and I thought it would be nice to ride again during cherry blossom season with my daughter.

地方から来た母と2人で屋形船に乗りました！
お料理も景色も最高で、とてもいい思い出になりました。
楽しみにしていた天ぷらも、揚げたてを美味しくいただきました
船頭さんたちもみんな明るく優しい方々で、母娘ともに大満足でした。
平日でしたがほぼ満席で、今度は桜の時期に私と娘で乗船したいなと思いました。

Despite the rain and cold, I was told to wait in an exposed area. I was disappointed that there weren't many fish. In the past, when I did this elsewhere, a lot of fish came when I scattered bait, and there were even sea turtles, so this time was a letdown.

雨が降って寒かったのにも関わらず、吹きさらしのところで待機するよう言われた。
魚が大したのがいなくてがっかりだった。
以前やった他で時は、餌を撒いたのかたくさん魚が寄ってきて海亀もいたので、今回は残念でした。

I was worried about seasickness, but it was fine. Since it was a large ship, there was little rocking. I was able to head to the observation point on the deck, and the waves and breeze felt great. The coral reefs and fish were very beautiful.

Before boarding the ship, I was able to see dolphins being cared for and fish from the pier. We also got to see various creatures like sea turtles, land turtles, and animals in the shallow waters, which made both kids and adults very satisfied. If time had allowed, I would have liked to take a slower look around.

The staff were also kind. I would like to use this service again!

船酔い心配でしたが、大丈夫でした。大きな船なので揺れは少なかったです。甲板で観察ポイントまで向かえたので波風が気持ちよかったです。珊瑚礁も魚もとても綺麗でした。
船に乗るまでにイルカの飼育や桟橋から魚も見れました。
他にもウミガメやリクガメ、浅瀬の生き物など色々見る事ができ子供も大人も大満足でした。時間が許せばもっとゆっくり見て回りたかったです。
スタッフの方も親切でした。また利用したいです！

The submarine experience was amazing! It takes about 10 minutes to reach the diving point, so I enjoyed the nice breeze on the deck while taking in the scenery. Once we arrived at the point, we moved below deck and were able to see fish and coral up close through the windows, which was a fantastic experience. The seawater was clear and beautiful. There were also many others having various experiences, and if I come again, I would love to use this service again.

潜水艦最高でした！
潜水ポイントまで10分位あるのでデッキで気持ちいい風に吹かれながら景色を眺めて、ポイントに到着したら地下に移動して窓から魚やサンゴを間近で見ることができてとてもいい体験をさせてもらいました。海水が透き通っていてキレイでした。
他にも色んな体験をしてる人がいて、次来ることがあればまた利用したいです。

I came to Tokyo for a quick 3-night, 5-day trip. Mr. Yanagisawa and all the staff were very nice. I will make another reservation to come again in July with my sons!

東京3泊5日弾丸で来ました。柳沢さんはじめスタッフさん達皆さんとても感じよかったです。７月夏に息子達と一緒に来るのでまた予約させていただきます！

"Ichi-go ichi-e" is something I often think about.
I became very close with the people next door.
The staff were also very kind, and I had a comfortable time.
As a celebration, we celebrated my son's promotion and my 60th birthday.
I felt a bit embarrassed, but I was happy to receive applause from everyone.

一期一会とはよく行ったものです
お隣の人ととても仲良くさせていただきました
従業員の方も、とても親切で快適な時間を過ごしてきました
祝いということで、息子の昇進と私の還暦をお祝いしてもらいました
少し恥ずかしかったけれども、みんなに拍手されて嬉しかったです

The scenery was very nice, the food was very delicious, and the service was very attentive, so I was very satisfied with the activities themselves. However, the volume of the voices from the groups next to us was a bit high, and I would have appreciated a little more consideration from the travel group that seemed to be from China. Since it was during the Spring Festival, it can't be helped, but I noticed several instances where the Chinese groups could have made more effort to behave within reasonable limits in various places in the city.

Next time, I will visit at a different time.

とてもいい景色、とても美味しい料理、とても行き届いたサービスで、アクティビティ自体は大変満足しました。
ただ少々、両隣の団体さんのお声のボリュームが高く、特に中国からの旅行団体と思われる皆さんには、もう少しご配慮を頂きたかったです。
春節時期なので仕方ないのですが、中国人団体の方々には、都内ところどころで、もう少し常識内の行動に努めて欲しい…的な場面が散見されました。

次回は時期を変えてお世話になります。

I was able to play around with various activities until the time was up, and I wasn't bored at all! Even on a cloudy day, the views were really beautiful! The kids enjoyed it too!

時間までに色々遊ぶこともできて、
また時間が退屈ではなかった！
曇りの日でもすごく綺麗に見ることができた！
子供も楽しんでくれた！

I experienced it on March 3rd. The weather was cloudy and sunny. We took a boat to the point, and when we arrived, the boat was about 1.2 meters deep, allowing us to see underwater. Although we didn't encounter any sea turtles, I was moved by the beautiful coral reefs and fish. I'm glad my daughters enjoyed it too. Thank you!

3月3日に体験しました。曇ったり晴れたりの天気でした。ポイントまで船で行きポイントに着くと船が1.2mだったかな?沈んで海の中を見ることができました。海ガメには遭遇しませんでしたが、綺麗な珊瑚礁や魚に会えて感動しました。娘たちも喜んでくれて良かったです。ありがとうございます！

I arrived just in time, but the service was excellent. I was able to see a lot more fish than I expected. Both the little ones and adults had a great time!

ギリギリに着いてしまいましたが、非常に対応がよかったです。
予想していたよりも魚もかなりたくさん見れました。小さい子も大人も楽しめました！

At 8:50 AM, I took a bus from the terminal, which is a 3-minute walk from Dormy Inn Abashiri. I transferred to the Aurora boat at the port, which is connected to a roadside station, and cruised around the ice floes for about an hour, making five laps. After that, I took a bus to visit the Prison Museum for an hour. Then, I visited the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum nearby and enjoyed some delicious soft serve ice cream. I moved to Abashiri city by bus for lunch (seafood rice bowl), but the seating was cramped, and the seafood rice bowl was just okay. I took another bus to JR Kitahama Station to view the drift ice from a sightseeing train. After that, I took a bus from Abashiri Station to explore the frigid Notoro Cape, returning to Abashiri at 4 PM.

It was a very packed day. Thank you to all the staff for their hard work.

Since it was the Lunar New Year, there were many gentlemen talking loudly and ladies coughing without masks.

朝8時50分、ドーミーイン網走から徒歩3分のバスターミナルで、バスに乗って、
道の駅併設の港からオーロラ号に乗り換えて、港周辺を１時間５周ほどグルグルと流氷の中を航行し、
またバスに乗って、監獄博物館を１時間見学し、
バスですぐ近くのオホーツク流氷館を見学＆美味しいソフトを食べて、
バスで網走市内に移動して昼食（海鮮丼）を食べて。（席が狭くて、海鮮丼もイマイチで・・）
またバスに乗ってJR北浜駅に行って、観光列車から流氷を眺めて、
網走駅からバスに乗って、極寒の能取岬を散策して、
網走に戻ったのが16時。

とっても盛り沢山な一日でした。スタッフの皆さん、ご苦労様でした。

春節だったので、大声で喋りまくる紳士や、マスク無しで咳をしまくる御婦人が多数いました。

I have a fear of deep water and can't enter the ocean where I can't see or touch the bottom, so I thought I wouldn't be able to see underwater. However, I was very happy to be able to see it without getting wet! It was also great that my child could safely see it too!

海底恐怖症があり、足が付かない/見えない海に入る事ができない私は、ダイビングなど出来ないので、海の中を見る事は出来ないと思っていましたが、濡れずに見る事が出来てとても嬉しかったです！子供も安全に見る事が出来たので、とても良かったです！！

The weather was clear, and I was able to see many fish and beautiful coral reefs. The staff were kind, and I’m glad I participated.

天気も晴れていて、たくさんの魚と美しい珊瑚礁を見ることが出来ました。
スタッフの方も親切で参加して、良かったです。

Cruising on a cute painted boat was a lot of fun. We relaxed while enjoying the view outside until we reached our destination, and once we arrived, we moved to explore underwater. The guide shared information about the fish swimming around, which made my child, who has recently become fascinated with fish, incredibly happy throughout the experience. I think people of all ages can enjoy this.

可愛いペイントが施された船に乗ってクルージングは楽しかったです。
目的地に行くまでは外の景色を眺めながらまったりとして目的地に着いたら場所を移動して海中を散策しました。
ガイドのお姉さんが泳いでる魚のことを教えてくださるので最近魚にハマってる我が子は終始楽しくて仕方がなかったようです。
老若男女楽しめると思います。

It was a bit rainy, but the inside of the boat was warm with the kotatsu. Freshly fried tempura kept coming out one after another. The view from inside the boat never gets boring. We just made it in time for the cherry blossoms.

やや雨模様でしたが、こたつで船内はあったか
揚げたての天ぷらが、次に次に運ばれてきます
船内からの景色は飽きません
桜もぎりぎり間に合いました

Even on a rainy day, the vinyl acted as a window, so we were able to enjoy ourselves without getting wet. Thanks to that, it might not have been cold in winter without the wind.

I heard that there is a sunshade on the ceiling in summer, and the transparent ceiling is only for now. We were able to take pictures of the Tokyo Skytree all the way to the top.

The guide kept the energy up throughout, and my child was especially delighted with the diving, which they were looking forward to the most. We passed by several people practicing canoeing on the river, and it was heartwarming that everyone waved at us.

The explanation mentioned that the river ride lasts about 20 minutes. After getting off the river, there was a 10-15 minute disembarkation time, and we could take a break at the café or use the restroom.

My elementary school child seemed to enjoy it too, and said they want to go again on a sunny day.

雨の日でもビニールが窓がわりになっていたので濡れずに楽しめました。おかげで冬でも風がなく寒くなかったかもしれません。
夏は天井にサンシェードがあるとの事で、天井も透明なのは今だけとの事。スカイツリーもてっぺんまで写真に撮れました◎

終始ガイドさんが盛り上げてくれて、子どもが1番楽しみにしていたダイビングも大喜びでした。
川ではカヌー？を練習中の方と何度もすれ違いましたが皆さん手を振ってくれたのも微笑ましかったです。
川は20分くらいとの説明がありました。川から出た後は10-15分くらいの降車タイムがあり、カフェで休憩やトイレも可能でした。

今度は晴れた日にも行きたいね、と小学生の子どもも楽しめたようです。

The main attraction was the drift ice tour, but I was disappointed that I couldn't see it. However, thanks to the guide's entertaining stories and the driver's safe driving, I had a very enjoyable and memorable trip. Thank you very much.

流氷観光がメインでしたが観る事が出来ず残念でした。しかしガイドさんの楽しい話と運転手さんの安全運転のおかげで、とても楽しく思い出に残る旅が出来ました。ありがとうございました

My 2-year-old child sat on my lap, but the space between the seats in front was a bit cramped. Other than that, I was satisfied as we could enjoy both land and sea.

2歳のこどもは膝上でしたが、少し前の座席との間隔が狭かったです。あとは、陸と海を両方楽しめて満足でした。

The girl who was giving us information on the return ship was on the phone the whole time. Even though it was a great experience, seeing that kind of behavior dampened my enthusiasm.

帰りの船内で案内をしてくれた女の子が、ずっと誰かと電話をしていた。せっかくの良い体験もそういう姿を見ると冷めてしまった。

I couldn't see the drift ice, but it was a great tour. The day was fulfilling. The guide's explanations were also good.

流氷には会えなかったけど、いいツアーでした。いちにち充実していました。ガイドさんの説明もよかったです。

My experience with the Abashiri sightseeing bus was very good, with the guide's explanations being clear and the course, including lunch, going smoothly without any issues. However, I was disappointed that the weather on that day was unusually warm across the country, and in Abashiri, the main attraction of drifting ice was flowing out to sea, which meant I couldn't have the experience I had hoped for.

I had been looking forward to this for a long time, but when I arrived, the abnormal warmth in February, which even the locals had never experienced, was surprising. I had prepared for temperatures around minus ten degrees on the Aurora ship, but with no wind and temperatures above ten degrees, I was relieved to be comfortable without my coat. Unfortunately, the crucial drifting ice had moved away, leaving only a small amount of ice floating around Abashiri.

What saved the day was the beautiful view of the snow-capped Shiretoko mountain range under clear skies. In the end, I believe the various attractions I visited in Abashiri were so good that they made me want to challenge myself to return again in the future.

　網走観光バスの体験は、ガイドさんの説明もよく、コースの先も昼食等何ら問題もなく、大変良かったと思っています。
　ただ、当日の気候は全国的に暖かくて、当該地の網走も気象観測値を更新する記録の中での本来の主目的であった流氷が沖に流れて期待以上の体験が出来なかったことが残念でならない。
人生の後短いものが、やっと念願のものが達成されると喜んでいたが、開いてみれば、異常気象で地元民も体験していないと言うくらいの２月の暖かさで、オーロラ号船上でマイナス１０度程度の気温を覚悟し防寒対策をして臨んだものの、風もなく10度以上の気温から上着を脱ぎ寒くなくて良かったと喜びもよそに、肝心の流氷は沖へ去り網走周囲には何もなく少しの氷が浮いている状況でした。
　救われたのは、晴天の遥かに知床連山の白い雪のかぶった山々がきれいに見えたことでした。
　最後に、網走で見学した各観光は年を置いて、再度挑戦する気持ちの起こる程に良かったと思います。

You can see the drift ice not only from the icebreaker but also from the train window, at the cape, inside the train, and from the rooftop. I think it's a very good tour.

流氷を見ることが出来るのは砕氷船からだけではないのです。車窓はもちろん、岬、電車内、屋上からとあちこちで見ることが出来ます。とても良いツアーだと思います。

The weather was perfect (except for lunch). The drift ice was in perfect condition, and the Shiretoko mountain range was clearly visible, which was very nice. However, about lunch... I had some hokke (a type of fish), but it was as cold as if it had just come straight out of the refrigerator. I didn't find it tasty at all. I can't recommend this place for individuals... I understand that it's challenging to accommodate a large number of people, but it was a bit disappointing... Everything else was perfect, so it's a shame.

天候にも恵まれ最高でした（除ランチ）。流氷は完璧な状態で、知床連山もくっきりと見えてとても良かったです。しかしランチはなんでしょうね…ホッケを食べさせてもらいましたが、冷蔵庫からそのまま出したような冷たさ。全く美味を感じませんでした。個人で行くにもおすすめできるお店ではありませんね…多くの人数の対応なので大変なのはわかりますが、ちょっと酷かったですね…これ以外は完璧だったのに残念です。

It was a very fulfilling tour that allowed us to cover so many activities in just one day. Above all, the guide's thoughtfulness was wonderful, as they apologized multiple times for the cancellation of the Aurora. Although the cancellation was disappointing, the sight of the drifting ice that I saw for the first time was amazing! Perhaps due to the Spring Festival, there were surprisingly many foreigners.

これだけの工程を1日で回れてとても内容の濃いツアーでした。何よりガイドさんのお気遣いが素晴らしく、オーロラ号が欠航になった事を何度も謝っておられました。欠航になったのはショックでしたが、初めて見る流氷の景色は最高でした！春節の影響でか？思いのほか外国人が多かったです。

Unfortunately, the Aurora was canceled due to strong winds, but we were able to see drifting ice in various places, and the scenery was more beautiful than I imagined. It was an emotional experience that you can only have by being there, and I’m glad I did. I also learned about the history of Abashiri City, which really changed my perspective on Hokkaido.

残念ながら、オーロラ号は強風でキャンセルになりましたが、色々な場所で流氷が見られ、想像以上に美しい風景ですした。現地に来ないと体験できない感動で、良かったです。網走市の歴史も知ることができ、とても北海道の見方が変わりました。

We used this venue for a gathering of nine colleagues from work. The application form was easy to understand and fill out, and the response to our inquiries was prompt, which made us feel reassured.

On the day of the event, we were guided to our seats by the staff, and a lavish meal was prepared for us. The tatami room was spacious, and the view was fantastic! The restrooms on the ship had a luxurious atmosphere, were plentiful, and very clean.

With the all-you-can-drink option, our orders were brought to us immediately, and we enjoyed delicious beer and food. The freshly fried tempura was truly impressive.

We were able to step out onto the deck twice and enjoy the night view. There was a celebratory service, and we were able to surprise a member who had a birthday that month. The staff's service was wonderful, and the venue was lively; we are truly grateful!

Everyone from work was very happy, and we are really glad we participated! We would love to ride again! Thank you!

The reservation process is easy and can be confirmed immediately. The food is excellent, with freshly fried tempura, delicious sukiyaki, and a good selection of drinks.

予約は簡単で、すぐに確認できる。料理は最高で、揚げたての天ぷら、おいしいすき焼き、ドリンクのセレクションは良い。

The condition of the sea wasn't good, and the visibility was poor, so I didn't encounter many fish. ⤵️ I couldn't really understand what the guide was saying, and it didn't seem like they were trying to make it enjoyable.

海の状態が良くなかったのか、透明度も悪くあまりお魚さんとは遭遇できませんでした⤵️
ガイド？も何を言っているのかよく分からず‥楽しませようという気は見られなかったです。
