It was a slightly chilly day, but we set sail as planned. However, a tsunami warning was issued, and I thought it might be canceled. Following the captain's instructions that it was safer offshore, we continued the cruise. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to witness the scene of a whale spouting and diving. The captain's various explanations were eye-opening, making for a fun two and a half hours!
少し肌寒い日でしたが、予定通り出港、しかし直ぐに津波警報が出され、中止かと思いましたが、沖合いの方が安全との船長指示に従い、クルーズ続行ですね~幸いにクジラの潮吹きから潜水のシーンが目撃出来て、ラッキーでした~

It was foggy, and I had low expectations of seeing anything, but a pod of orcas appeared out of the mist. Thanks to the crew's skills, we got really close, about 3 meters away from the orcas! They seemed accustomed to humans and appeared to be observing us and playing, so I didn't feel any fear. We also encountered a sperm whale, and I was deeply moved by its grandeur. It was a different kind of excitement compared to videos. I heard that there are days when you might not see anything at all, but it seemed we were lucky to see so many orcas.
濃霧でしたが出航、こりゃ何も見られないかなと期待薄でしたが霧の中から鯱の群れが現れ、船員さんのテクニックによりすごく近くまで寄って下さり、3mくらいの距離てシャチを見られました!シャチの方も慣れているのか、人間を観察して遊んでいる感じで、恐怖心は感じませんでした。マッコウクジラにも出会えて、その雄大さに感動しきりでした。動画とかとは違う感動でした。全く出会え無い日も有るとの事でしたが、シャチがウジャウジャいる様子が見られ、ラッキーだったようです。

The meeting place was a bit difficult to find, but the person who came to pick us up was very kind, and we were able to enjoy the cruise thanks to their assistance. During our landing on Niijima, the guide explained the history of Niijima and the observation of rare plants, which was enjoyable. Taking memorable photos on the swing was also a great keepsake. The view of Sakurajima from the ship was also wonderful.

First, you go to the reception, and the payment has already been completed with a card, so there's no need to fill out any annoying address or phone number details. You just receive your ticket and can head straight to the port.
I have previously taken a ship from a certain company, but once you're out at sea, it's the same. However, the quality of the reception and the atmosphere here are better, so I've been using this service consistently.

I have long wanted to experience the drift ice. I searched for various tours, but they all seemed a bit overwhelming for us, as we are older. Then I found your company's Abashiri tour, which allowed us to board the Aurora drift ice ship and enjoy a compact winter sightseeing experience in Abashiri. It was a satisfying journey. While having a lot of activities is nice, I also appreciate a focused approach that fulfills specific wishes.

I participated in this tour on February 23, 2025. The explanations provided by the bus guide at key points were very helpful. We were fortunate with the weather we were worried about and were able to see the drift ice at just the right time. The drift ice from the Aurora was breathtaking. I was moved by the transformation of the sea surface from lotus-shaped ice to rugged drift ice as we set sail. The view of the ship moving through the expanse of drift ice was so stunning that I almost forgot the cold and spent most of the time outside watching.
We were also able to efficiently visit places like Abashiri Prison and the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum! I was scared to drive a rental car in winter, so I was glad to use this service. It’s a recommended tour that allows you to enjoy sightseeing in Abashiri in just one day!
2025年2月23日利用しました。このツアーは、バスガイドさんの要所要所での説明が有難いです。
心配していた天候にも恵まれ流氷をタイミングよく見ることが出来ました。オーロラ号からの流氷は圧巻です。出航すると海上面が、蓮状の氷から、ゴツゴツした流氷へと姿変わっていく様子に感動しました。一面流氷の中を船で進んでいく景色が絶景すぎて寒さ忘れて外でほぼ見ていました。
その後の網走監獄、オホーツク流氷館なども効率よく周ることができます!冬はレンタカー借りて運転するのは怖かったので、利用して良かったです。1日で網走観光が足早に楽しめる!そんなおすすめツアーです。

I recommend visiting Abashiri in winter. Driving a rental car can be dangerous during the winter season, so I participated in a tour. I was satisfied because I was able to visit Cape Notoro, which is difficult to access individually. The time spent at the Abashiri Prison was a bit short. For lunch, we were close to the current Abashiri Prison, so we were able to visit the shop as well.
冬の網走観光でお勧めです。冬季はレンタカーの運転も危ないので参加しました。
個人ではアクセスしずらい、能取岬先にも行けたので満足です。
網走監獄での見学時間はやや短めです。

The winter of 2025 saw a late arrival of the drift ice, and before participating in the tour, I was a bit anxious, thinking, "Maybe I won't be able to see the drift ice..." However, on the day of the tour, I was lucky enough to see the drift ice, making it a truly fortunate experience.
I boarded the morning cruise of the Aurora icebreaker, but I had seen reviews mentioning that "there are many foreign tourists, and it's lively," which made me a little concerned. However, since it was the morning cruise, the atmosphere was relatively calm, and I was able to enjoy the drift ice cruise. I suspect that if it had been a later cruise, there would have been more group tourists, making it quite lively.
Additionally, there were many foreign tourists on the sightseeing train, the Drift Ice Story, and among the tour participants, everyone was well-mannered, allowing us to visit the sightseeing spots on schedule, which left a good impression. It seemed that transportation methods like buses were quite crowded due to the influx of tourists, so I felt it was the right decision to book a tour that allowed for smooth sightseeing without the hassle of transportation.
The view of the drift ice from Cape Notoro was particularly breathtaking. It was a magnificent sight, as if the drift ice was packed all the way to the horizon, making me forget the cold as I gazed at it. The visits to the Abashiri Prison Museum and the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum were also fulfilling, providing a valuable opportunity to learn about history and nature.
It was a highly satisfying tour that allowed me to fully enjoy the charm of winter in Abashiri!
2025年の冬は流氷の到着が遅く、ツアー参加前は「もしかしたら流氷が見られないかも…」と不安に思っていました。しかし、当日は運よく流氷を見ることができ、まさにラッキーな体験となりました。
流氷砕氷船おーろら号の朝イチの便に乗船しましたが、乗船前に「外国人観光客が多く賑やか」という口コミを見かけていたので少し気になっていました。ただ、朝の便だったこともあり、比較的落ち着いた雰囲気で流氷クルーズを楽しむことができました。おそらく、もう少し遅い時間の便だと団体客が増え、かなり賑やかになっていたのではないかと思います。
また、観光列車の流氷物語号やツアーの参加者にも海外からの観光客が多くいましたが、皆さんマナーが良く、スケジュール通りに観光地を巡れた点も好印象でした。インバウンドの影響でバスなどの移動手段はかなり混雑していたようなので、移動の手間なくスムーズに観光できるツアーに申し込んで正解だったと感じました。
特に圧巻だったのは能取岬からの流氷の景色です。まるで水平線までびっしりと流氷が詰まっているような壮大な光景が広がり、寒さを忘れて見入ってしまいました。博物館網走監獄やオホーツク流氷館の見学も充実しており、歴史や自然について学べる貴重な機会でした。
冬の網走の魅力をたっぷり堪能できる、大満足のツアーでした!
I think it would be good to check if the year you participate is a year with a lot of drift ice!
参加される年が流氷の当たり年か調べておくのが良いと思います!

I participated on February 23rd. I was so happy to have beautiful weather with clear skies and no wind. I took the bus from Abashiri Station at 8:30 and first boarded the Aurora. This year, the drift ice arrived later than usual, and I was very anxious about whether I would see it when I went to Abashiri, but it arrived on February 15th, and I was able to see it safely. I was able to witness the beauty of nature. The Aurora moves through the ice, and this is an experience you can only have on the ship. There were many international visitors on board as well. It was moving, and it was worth coming to the Okhotsk region. I think it's a landscape you should see at least once in your lifetime.
Next, I went to Abashiri Prison, but there wasn't enough time. The way the exhibits were presented was good, but time was limited. I would like to see it again if I have the chance. I also rode the Drift Ice Story train from Kitahama Station to Abashiri, and I could see the drift ice from the train. I visited the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum and Cape Notoro, and the seafood bowl for lunch was delicious. It was a perfect tour. The bus guide, Mr. Nanbu, was very nice, and at the end, he sang "The Sea of Okhotsk" by Chiharu Matsuyama a cappella. Thank you, Abashiri Bus.
私が参加したのは2/23。
本当に快晴で風もなく良いお天気に恵まれて嬉しい限りです。
8時半に網走駅くらバスに乗り、まずはおーろら号に乗船。今年は例年になく、流氷の着岸が遅く、私が網走に行くときに流氷はあるのかとても不安でしたが、2/15に着岸し、無事に見ることができました。自然の素晴らしさを見ることができました。流氷を砕氷しながら進むおーろら号。船に乗らないと体験できないです。海外の方もたくさん乗られてました。感動的でオホーツクに来た甲斐がありました。一生に一度は見てみたい風景だと思います。
次に行った網走刑務所は時間が足りなかった。展示の仕方も上手ですが、時間が足りない。きかいがあればまた見てみたい。
北浜駅→網走駅の流氷物語号にも乗れて、列車からも流氷が見えました。オホーツク流氷館、能取岬も回ってもらえてお昼の海鮮丼も美味しかったし、いうことなしのツアーでした。バスガイドの南部さんがとてもよい方で、最後にアカペラで松山千春の「オホーツクの海」を歌って下さりました。網走バス、ありがとう。
The tour is centered around the drift ice. I think it would have been sad if there was no drift ice.
I felt that there wasn't much time needed to explore the current Abashiri Prison. I wished there
流氷ありきのツアー。これが流氷なければ悲しかったなと思います。
現在の網走刑務所を散策する時間はあまり要らないなと思った。昔の網走刑務所の時間がもう少し多かったらと思いました。

This time, I was disappointed that there were no signs of drift ice. I guess late February to mid-March might have been better. The Aurora was operating on a shortened schedule, so there was no refund. While I would be excited just to ride the Garinko, the Aurora is more like a ferry that circles the bay, so the scenery wasn't that impressive, and the shortened time left me a bit dissatisfied, but since I had already made the reservation, it couldn't be helped. I enjoyed the atmosphere while drinking drift ice beer from the onboard shop. The tour was satisfying as it efficiently covered various places, not just the Aurora. The tour guide's explanations and highlights were excellent, making my time in Abashiri enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour without any disappointments.
今回は流氷には影も形もお目に描かれず残念でした。やはり2月下旬から3月半ば辺りが良かったのかな。オーロラ号には乗船短縮運航となりましたので返金は無し。ガリンコ号とかなら乗るだけでもワクワクしますがオーロラ号はフェリーのようなもので湾内をまわるのて景色もそれほどでもなく時間短縮なのでちょっと不満感つのりますがそれもアリで予約してるので仕方ありません。船内販売の流氷ビール飲みながら雰囲気だけでも味わいました。ツアーにはオーロラ号だけでなくいろんなところが効率よく回れるので満足でした。ツアーガイドのお話や見どころ案内が非常に良く網走を楽しく回れました。ハズレのないおすすめツアー。
Even if the drift ice is close to shore, it may not be visible depending on the wind direction, so I participated with that understanding. Even if we can't see the drift ice, we can efficiently explor

If you're visiting Abashiri in winter for the first time, I recommend this tour. You don't have to drive on winter roads yourself, and taking the train (Ryuhyo Monogatari) one way is something you can only do on a bus tour. The destinations cover the classic tourist spots, and the guide's explanations were enjoyable, making for a fulfilling day.
冬の網走に初めて行く人ならこのツアーがオススメです。自分で冬道運転しなくていいですし、片道だけ列車(流氷物語号)に乗るなんてバスツアーでないとできません。行き先は定番の観光地がしっかり押えられていて、ガイドさんの解説も楽しく、充実した一日になりました。
When visiting tourist spots, it's easy to run out of time if you take your time to see each one, so it's a good idea to prioritize your visits.
観光スポットでは一つ一つじっくり見ていると時間が足りなくなりがちなので、優先順位をつけて回ると良いでしょう。

Since there was no observation of the drift ice, I thought it might be a shopping voucher, but there was a 40-minute boat ride, and it was not eligible for a refund. That's a bit disappointing... However, I enjoyed spending more time at the Abashiri Prison. It was very spacious, and I had so much fun that I didn't have enough time. For lunch, I recommend the seafood bowl. It was delicious and left me full. I was lucky to get a seat on the Ryuhyo Monogatari. There were people standing. At Notoro Cape, the driver spotted birds and deer, which made it very enjoyable.

I participated in early February, but I couldn't see the drift ice. The weather was good, so the Aurora cruise operated, but it only went around the nearby sea. The visit to Abashiri Prison took 75 minutes, but there wasn't enough time, so I just had a quick look. I didn't have time to choose souvenirs. If I had more time on the Aurora cruise, I would have liked to explore Abashiri Prison more leisurely.
I took the JR train to the meeting point in Abashiri, but it was on the same line as the Drift Ice Story train (which I realized upon reflection), and the tour included riding the Drift Ice Story train, going by bus from Abashiri to Kitahama Station, and then returning to Abashiri on the Drift Ice Story train, so it felt a bit off.
As for lunch, I felt it was unavoidable given the tour's itinerary. The time allocated for other locations was just right.
2月の上旬に参加しましたが、流氷は見られませんでした。天気はよかったので、おーろら号は催行しましたが、近くの海をぐるっとまわるだけでした。網走監獄は所要時間75分でしたが、時間が足りずにサラッと見て終わりました。お土産を選んでいる時間はありませんでした。おーろら号に乗っている時間があれば、網走監獄をもっとゆっくり見たかったです。
集合地点の網走までJRで向かいましたが、流氷物語号と同じ路線(考えてみれば気づくこと)で、ツアーの流氷物語号に乗車する内容でも、網走からバスで北浜駅に向かい、流氷物語で網走に戻るというツアーだったので、うーん、という感じでした。
昼食も、ツアーの内容なら仕方ないか、といった感じです。
その他の場所の所要時間はちょうどよかったです。
If you can see the drift ice, I think it would be a satisfying tour. However, there really isn't enough time at Abashiri Prison, so if you can't see the drift ice, it might be better to explore on you
流氷が見ることができていたのなら、満足いくツアーなのだと思います。ただ、網走監獄は本当に時間が足りないので、流氷が見られないのなら、自分たちで行動した方が良いかもしれません。

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。

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 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。

It’s cold on the ship, so taking measures against the cold is essential. Also, motion sickness medication is a must; the inside of the ship is warm, but it can make you feel seasick easily.
