Japan
Since I had tickets in advance, entry was smooth. It feels like a theme park that those who love pineapples can enjoy.
予めチケットがあったので入場がスムーズでした。
パイナップルが好きな方は楽しめるテーマパークって感じです。
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。
It is convenient as it takes about 30 minutes by the express bus called Tokyo Bus from Naha city center. The travel time is approximately 2 to 3 hours.
那覇市街から東京バスという急行バスで約30分程度と那覇市街地から近いので便利です。所要時間は2~3時間程度。
I got lost on my way from Oshiage Station to the reception, possibly because I'm not familiar with the area in Tokyo. Since my reservation was early, there was nowhere to leave my suit, which wouldn't fit in a coin locker, so I had to carry it while sightseeing. I wished the luggage storage had been open by the time we arrived.
Getting to the observation deck felt like a conveyor belt, with directions to go this way and that, resulting in quite a bit of walking. Although the view from the upper floors was nice, there wasn't much to see, and the shops that stood out were mainly those that took free photos and sold them for a fee.
It felt just like what I had seen on TV, and there wasn't any unique emotional experience that you would expect from being there, so I don't think I'll go again. However, it was nice that I could use the points I accumulated from overseas tours with Veltra at a domestic facility before COVID.
東京に土地勘がないせいか、押上駅から受付に行くまでに迷いました。早い時間の予約だとコインロッカーに入らないスーツを預けるところもなく、持って観光することになりました。オープン時間には手荷物預り所を開けていて欲しかったです。
展望室までは流れ作業のような感じであっちへ行ってください、こっちへ行ってください…という感じでけっこうな距離を歩くことになりました。上階からの眺めは良かったもののたいして見るものもなく、無料で写真を取って有料で販売するお店ばかりが目立ちました。
テレビで見たとおりという感じで現地ならではの感動体験はなく、もう行くことはないと思います。
コロナ前に海外のツアーで貯まったベルトラのポイントが国内の施設で使えたのは良かったです。
I had a reservation at 10 AM, and initially, I lined up in the "For those with tickets" queue outside. However, I was guided inside before my time, and I was able to smoothly exchange my ticket and enter using the QR code. Perhaps because it was a Monday, I was able to take my time. It seemed that the high school students on a school trip were disappointed because the observation deck tickets were not included. I definitely recommend getting the observation deck set. The weather was clear and sunny, and I could see Mount Fuji very well.
10時の予約で、最初外の「チケットをお持ちの方用」の列に並びましたが、時間前に中に誘導されてスムーズにQRコードからチケット交換・入場できました。月曜の為か割とゆっくり出来ました。修学旅行の高校生は展望回廊のチケットはついていないみたいで残念がっていました。是非展望回廊のセットをお勧めします。秋晴れの快晴の天気で、富士山もよく見えました。
I thought a bus tour would be a great way to efficiently explore Tokyo with friends visiting from abroad, so I searched online and found this open-air tour that offers unlimited rides for a day. We started on the Blue Course at 10:05 AM, got off at Tsukiji, had an early lunch, and visited Tsukiji Honganji Temple. We returned to Marunouchi Mitsubishi Building at 1:20 PM after a restroom break. Next, we took the Red Course departing at 2:05 PM and got off at Asakusa Hanakawado. We visited Senso-ji Temple, enjoyed ningyo-yaki and matcha ice cream on Nakamise Street, and took photos with Tokyo Skytree and the Asahi Headquarters. We returned to Marunouchi again at 4:23 PM. While there wasn't enough time to see everything, we got to view various tourist spots from the bus, and my friends and other international travelers seemed to have a great time. Everyone cheered when we looked up at Tokyo Tower. I think it would be nice to visit the places we wanted to see later. After this, we participated in the open-air night bus tour as well. We were able to communicate with tourists from various countries, and it was the best day ever! I would love to join again!
海外から来た友達と効率よく東京観光をするにはバスツアーがいいなと思い、ネットで探していたら、オープンエアで1日乗り放題のこのツアーを見つけました。私達は10時5分からスタートのブルーコースに乗り、築地で降り、早めの昼食を摂り、築地本願寺を参拝、13時20分築地発で丸の内三菱ビルに戻ってきました。トイレ休憩し、次は14時5分発でレッドコースに乗り、浅草花川戸で降りました。浅草寺参拝、仲見世通りで人形焼や抹茶アイスを食べたり、東京スカイツリーやアサヒ本社屋と一緒に写真を撮りました。そして16時23分発でまた丸の内に戻りました。全て見学するには時間が足りませんが、バスの中からいろいろな観光地を見れて、友達や他の海外旅行者もとても楽しそうでした。特に東京タワーを下から眺めた時は皆さん歓声をあげていました。後日行きたくなった観光地を訪れてもいいと思います。この後私達は同じくオープンエアのナイトバスツアーに参加しました。いろいろな国の観光客とコミュニケーションもとれ、最高の1日でした!また参加したいです!
Booking a one-way ferry ride that takes about four hours took quite a bit of courage. Until the day before, I was debating whether to switch to a flight, but I couldn't resist the low price. Once on board, the large size of the ship made it stable, and the second-class seating was spacious enough for a comfortable nap, so I fell asleep without any discomfort. The interior of the ship was clean, and they sold reasonably priced snacks and cup noodles. There were also blankets and smaller pillows available, and while I was initially concerned about the hardness of the floor, I quickly found it cozy enough to fall asleep. While awake, I enjoyed the scenery and wandered around, finding a barrier-free seating area with chairs, and before I knew it, time flew by. I used to think flying was the only option, but now I believe traveling by ferry can be a great experience too.
片道約4時間のフェリーを予約するのはなかなか勇気が入りました。
前日まで飛行機に変更しようかと悩見ましたが安さには勝てず。
いざ乗船すると、船が大きいからか安定していて、2等席は広いざこ寝空間だったので、違和感なく寝てしまいました。
船内も綺麗で、良心価格のお菓子やカップ麺も販売してます。
毛布と小さめ枕もあり、床の硬さも気になるのは始めだけですぐに眠りにつける居心地の良さ。
起きてる間は景色を眺めたり、バリアフリー席で椅子がある自由部屋もあったりと、ウロウロしていたらあっという間です。
すっと飛行機一択でしたが、これからは船での旅も良いと思います。
The weather was great, and the view was amazing. I was overwhelmed by its size, which was even bigger than I had imagined. Looking up from directly below made my neck hurt. My child spread their arms wide around a pillar and exclaimed, "This pillar is huge!" They really felt the size. I was also curious about how it was constructed, and I was once again impressed, thinking, "Wow, this is incredible." Despite it being a weekday, the crowd was impressive and tiring, but it became a wonderful memory. Next time, I want to change the time and go see the night view.
お天気にも恵まれて眺めは最高でした。
想像していた以上の大きさに圧倒されました。
真下から見上げると首が痛くなるくらい。
子どもは柱に両手を広げて抱きつき「柱 でか!」と大きさを実感していました。
大きさもですが、どのように作られたのか?にも興味があり改めて「すごいなぁ〜。」と感動ました。
平日にも関わらず、さすがの人の多さは疲れましたが、いい思い出になりました。
次は時間帯を変えて夜景も観に行きたいです。
It was a soothing aquarium. However, I was puzzled by having to exchange tickets twice before entering. In the age of ticketless entry, why was there such unnecessary effort and time spent?
癒やされる水族館でした。ただ入館までに二回もチケット交換したのは疑問。チケットレスの時代に無駄な労力と時間かかつて???でした
We took the torokko train from Arashiyama, then a shuttle bus to the boat dock, and it was our child's first experience with the Hozu River boat ride. At two and a half years old, he was over 80 cm, so he was able to join. He seemed to have a great time in the rapids, which was wonderful. The boatman's talk and skillful maneuvering were entertaining, and the two hours flew by.
行きは嵐山からトロッコ列車に乗り、連絡バスで船乗り場まで行き、こどもにとっては初めての保津川下り。2歳半ですが、80cm以上だったので乗ることができました。急流で楽しそうにしてくれて、とても良かったです。船頭さんのトークと巧みな舟捌きが面白く、2時間があっという間でした。
I was able to exchange my ticket smoothly and boarded the ship without any issues. There was no rocking, and it was a comfortable journey. Thank you very much. The scenery was also fantastic.
スムーズにチケットと交換でき、無事に乗船できました。揺れもなく、快適な船旅となりました。ありがとうございます。景色も最高でした。
It was beautiful!!
It became a great memory (o^^o)
There were a lot of people even on weekdays!
I thought I would like to go again.
綺麗でした‼︎
良い想い出になりました(o^^o)
平日でも人が多かったです!
また行きたいなと思いました
On the day we arrived in Okinawa, we had booked a 6-hour tour, and we were welcomed at the airport before our scheduled time. After the sightseeing, we were taken to our hotel.
On the second day, we requested another full-day tour, and since some of the sightseeing spots overlapped with the first day, we were recommended a different course that allowed us to enjoy a more relaxed sightseeing experience! I made a special request for a female driver, and she fulfilled our wish. The driver was also very nice, which made us very excited from the first day.
Our first trip to Okinawa turned out to be a very enjoyable experience. Thank you very much.
If we have the opportunity again, we would definitely like to request your services.
沖縄に着いた日に6時間コースで予約しておりまして、約束時間より前に空港迄お出迎えして頂き観光後はホテル迄送って頂きました。
2日目に別の1日観光お願いしておりまして、初日と観光地がかぶっていた為、違うコースをお勧めして頂き比較的ゆったりの観光を満喫しました❗️無理言って女性ドライバーさんにお願いしましたら、希望通りにかなえて頂きドライバーさんもとっても良い方だったので初日から大興奮の私達でした。
初めての沖縄がとっても楽しい旅行にして頂きました。本当にありがとうございました。
又機会があれば是非お願いしたいと思います。
It was an unforgettable and fulfilling journey. Since we hired a car, we saved time on taxis and waiting for transportation at each stop. Mr. Nishida, who was in charge of driving, was friendly and talkative, and he drove smoothly. He planned out the time for each stop and reminded us of the remaining distance and duration during the drive. He was also flexible in adjusting our destinations and itinerary according to our needs. At the end of the trip, he bid us farewell very kindly. We sincerely appreciate his help throughout the journey.
非常难忘和圆满的旅程。因为是包车出游,节约了每个站点打车和等车的时间。负责驾驶的西田先生热情健谈,驾驶平稳,给我们规划好了每一站停留的时间,在行驶过程中也提醒我们剩余的距离和时长,也能根据我们的需要灵活调整目的地和行程,结束行程时非常友好地和我们道别。真心感谢这一路上有他的帮助。
It was truly a fun day! I learned about Okinawa and was guided to places I wouldn't have thought of on my own. I'm really glad I used the sightseeing taxi! When I go to Okinawa next time, I definitely want to book again! Thank you so much, driver!!
本当に楽しい1日になりました!沖縄の知識を教えていただいたり、自分達では思いつかなかったところも案内していただき、観光タクシーを使って本当に良かったと思いました!次に沖縄行く時はまた申込みたいと思います!運転手さん本当にありがとうございました!!
I have been to the Otaru Aquarium in Hokkaido, so I looked for another place and found this one. The ringed seal exhibit, dolphin show, sea lion show, and penguin parade were all great. I would love to go again if it were closer.
北海道でおたる水族館は行ったことあるから、別の場所を探したら、ここが見つかったので行きました。ゼニガタアザラシの銭リングやイルカショー、アシカショー、ペンギンパレードすべて良かったです。近かったらまた行きたいところです。
I was able to board easily with online payment, and even for someone like me who gets seasick easily, the rocking was comfortable. There were plenty of souvenirs for sale at Fukue Port, and with only a few types of docks, I could board without any confusion.
オンライン決済でラクラク乗船でき、船酔いしやすい私でも安心の揺れ具合でした。
福江港にたくさんお土産も売っており、桟橋も種類が少ないので迷わず乗船できました。
Since we had completed the reservation and payment in advance, we were able to continue our journey smoothly without feeling rushed, even with a small child in an unfamiliar place. The boat trip was stable with little rocking.
事前に予約・入金も完了していたので、小さな子連れで初めての場所でも焦らずスムーズに旅を続けられました。揺れも少なく安定感ある船旅でした。
The driver was very nice. He drove carefully and shared interesting stories about the road conditions, buildings, the nature of Okinawa, and its culture. At the same time, he didn't talk too much, which made for a comfortable conversation. Additionally, he took photos at various points, which became great mementos.
In my younger days, I used to travel by rental car, but recently, long-distance driving has become quite challenging, so this was my first time using a chartered taxi. It was really great. I would like to use it again next time.
運転手さんがとても良い方でした
運転も丁寧で道路事情、建物などのこと、沖縄の自然のこと、文化のことなど
興味深い色々な話をしてくれて
かといって喋りすぎるわけでもなく適度な会話で心地よかったです
また、ポイント毎に写真撮影もしてくださり良い記念になりました
若い頃はレンタカーで移動していましたが
最近は長距離運転をするのが大変になったので
今回初めて貸切タクシーを利用しました
とても良かったです
次回も利用したいです
I went to Goto for a memorial service and used this service. The ferry fare has increased to more than three times what it was when I used it in my youth, but the discounts helped a lot. I will definitely use it again next time.
法事で五島に行くことになり、今回利用させていただきました。フェリーが若いときに利用した時の3倍いじょうとなっており、大分高くなりましたが、割引されていたので、非常に助かります。
次回も利用させていただきます。
This is my second time visiting Goto. The weather was clear both going and returning, and the views were wonderful!! There was no significant shaking, and I had a fun trip both ways!
人生2回目の五島。行きも帰りも晴れていてとても眺めも良かったです!!特に大きく揺れることもなく、楽しく行き帰りができました!
It's a little cheaper than purchasing directly at the ticket counter or official website.
I’m not sure about the season, but on weekdays in late September, it wasn't too crowded, and there was a comfortable space even without a reserved seat.
Since I usually don't take ferries, I felt that it really boosted my travel mood.
普通に窓口や公式サイトで購入するより少しだけお得です。
シーズンはどうか分かりませんが、9月下旬の平日はさほど混雑もなく、指定席じゃなくてもゆっくりできるスペースがありました。
普段フェリーに乗ることが無いので、旅気分が上がって良かったと思います。
I received thoughtful advice for my selfish request, and I was able to spend a fun time without any waste.
わがままなリクエストにちゃんと考えていただいて良いアドバイスをいただき無駄のない楽しい時間を過ごす事ができました
To be honest, since you can enter on the same admission fee on the day, I don't think it's necessary to purchase in advance, but I applied because I had points. However, the staff at the reception seemed inexperienced, and it took time to scan the ticket from my phone.
I definitely recommend the origami crane experience. I think it's a wonderful place where you can feel the passionate thoughts behind the tower and pray for peace with a calm heart.
正直言えば当日も同じ入場料で入れるので、わざわざ事前購入しなくても良いと思いますがポイントがあったので申込みました。ただ、受付の人が慣れていないのかチケットを携帯から読み取るのに時間がかかりました。
おりづる投入体験は是非お勧めします。タワーを作られた熱い思いを感じ、静かな気持ちで平和を祈願できる素敵な場所だと思います。
I honestly didn't do enough research on geography and tourist spots before the day, so I roughly communicated that I wanted to visit Yachimun no Sato and the Churaumi Aquarium, and asked for any other recommendations. Fortunately, the driver was fantastic in terms of service, geographical knowledge, driving skills, and communication, making for a very satisfying day. Additionally, I appreciated the advice on booking a taxi from the hotel to the airport and suggestions for sightseeing at Shuri Castle and Kokusai Street before my flight. I think I would have struggled more if I hadn't met Ando. Thank you!
地理や観光スポットを十分調べずに当日となり、正直にその旨とともに、やちむんの里と美ら海水族館には行きたい、あとはお勧めがあったら。。とざっくりお伝えしました。幸いにも、サービス精神、地理的な知識、運転技術、そしてコミュニケーション、どれも素晴らしい運転手さんで、大満足の1日となりました。おまけに帰り日のホテルから空港までのタクシー予約や、フライト前に首里城や国際通りの観光のこともアドバイスくださり感謝です。安藤さんに会えていなかったら、もっと苦労したと思います。ありがとうございました!
Dear EmiW,
Thank you for your recent use of our services.
We are also delighted to hear that you were pleased. I conveyed your message of thanks to our driver, Ando, and he was very happy to receive it. We look forward to serving you again when you travel to Okinawa, so please keep us in mind for your future visits.
This message was sent on behalf of Ando by me, Miyagi.

This is my third time, and it was great.
The scenery changes with the seasons—autumn, spring, and late summer—was refreshing.
The boatman's stories and calls were exquisite.
I highly recommend you take a ride at least once.
3回目ですがよかったですよ。
秋、春、晩夏と四季折々景色が違いいやされました。
船頭さんのお話や掛け声は絶妙です。
おすすめ一度は乗ってください。
I booked a 5-hour plan for five people. First, since our previous schedule ended earlier than expected, I contacted them to see if it was possible to pick us up 30 minutes earlier than the scheduled time, knowing it might be a stretch. They kindly agreed to this request.
Throughout the ride, they kept the atmosphere lively by asking us trivia questions about Okinawa and showed us many sightseeing spots. Above all, I was truly grateful for how they took photos of our group at various locations. The photos were very well taken, and I was impressed throughout the experience. I think it's often difficult to get nice pictures of everyone when traveling, but thanks to them, we were able to create wonderful memories with many great photos.
I really believe it was an experience worth more than the price! Thank you very much!
5人で5時間のプランを予約いたしました。
まず、前の予定が思ったより早く終わったため無理を承知で予定時間の30分前に早めに迎えをお願いできないか連絡をしたところ、快く引き受けてくださいました。
その後も車内を盛り上げようと沖縄に関するクイズを出してくださったり、観光地をたくさん案内していただきました。なにより、至る所で5人の写真を撮ってくださったことが本当にありがたかったのですが、その写真もとてもセンスがあり終始感動していました。旅行に行くとなかなか全員での綺麗な写真を撮るのが難しいと思うのですが、沢山撮っていただいたおかげですごくいい思い出を残すことが出来ました。
本当にお値段以上の体験だったと思います!ありがとうございました!
I went out with my family and had a great time. The kids were also happy. I would like to go again if I have the chance.
家族づれて遊びました。とても楽しかったです。子供も喜びました。また機会があればまた行きたいと思います。
When I took the train to the nearest station, it was packed with foreign tourists, and I wondered what event was happening, but everyone got off at teamLab Planets.
最寄り駅まで乗車すると外国人観光客で満員で何のイベントがあるのかと思いましたが、全員チームラボプラネッツで下車しました。
I had almost zero prior knowledge, but I found it enjoyable with a fantastic and attraction-like atmosphere. It's priced accordingly, so while I would like to experience it once, I don't think I would go a second time. I recommend it for a date.
ほぼ予備知識ゼロだったのですが、幻想的且つアトラクション的な感じもあり楽しめました。
それなりのお値段なので、1回は体験したいけど2回目はもういいかなーと、、、
デートにはおすすめです。
