I have been to JR Tower at night, so I visited during the day this time. The weather was great, the view was amazing, and I enjoyed my beer deliciously. 😊

Since I went around 3 PM, it wasn't crowded, and I was able to fully enjoy the scenery. The night view must be nice too, but I think it's better to enjoy the mountain landscapes during the day... The cake set was also delicious.
午後3時頃に行ったので混雑もしておらず、景色を存分に楽しむことができました。
夜景も良いのでしょうが、山々の風景を楽しむなら日中の方が良いと思いまして…
ケーキセットも美味しかったです。

It was quiet on a weekday, allowing for a leisurely visit. It takes about 5 minutes to walk around. The view from the 38th floor is breathtaking!

I had a great time traveling around Osaka, Nara, Ise, and Nagoya. I even had a chance to take the Shimakaze, although I added a certain amount for the limited express trains. I just booked online then claimed it at the Kintetsu Nagoya station without hassle. I only had one difficulty when I had to change my destination from Iseshi to Ujiyamada station. I tried to talk to a staff in Kintetsu Nara station about it but he told me No English. The staff in Namba Osaka station were very kind to assist me regarding this matter. All in all, it is a great pass.

This was one of the better hop on/off bus tours I did in Japan. The timetables were fairly good and there was a good number of stops. Staff were all very friendly and well informed about the bus routes. I recommend doing both blue and purple routes.
On the blue route most people only get off at Tokyo Skytree and it is worth it. However, the next bus is in an hour and then 1.5hrs (2.5hrs from when I got off). I just about managed to get back down within an hour because I bought a fast lane ticket at double the price, because I didn't want to spend 2.5hrs at the one spot.
As they only accepted a printed ticket from their office it meant finding Veltra office. However, I wasted a bit of time in the morning finding Veltra. I eventually found it when I asked Sky Bus Tours office where Veltra was and they said "that's us" - don't know how I was suppose to know that. So you should google map search Sky tours not Veltra.
The most annoying thing about the tour was the timing of the guide audio; it was either interrupted by the next location fact or it'd say "look to your left and you'll see..." and it was nowhere in site. I think this could be resolved if the driver went slower. Alternatively, investment in a better audio system would be ideal judging from other people's reviews.

The bus and the route were good but the commentary was poor. There could have been so much more information provided, about the history of the city, interesting characters that have lived in Tokyo, about the design of the city, about the evolution of architectural styles, about how people lived 100, 200 years ago. I stead the commentary was dull. A pity.

I'm glad it was not crowded on a weekday. Sapporo is a spacious city, and I think it's worth experiencing at least once. The time from dusk to night is highly recommended for the views.

With the pass, the trip from Nagoya Chubu Airport to Osaka was really save a lot of money and our time. Just headed on to Osaka from Kinetsu Nagoya station without worry. However, if you would like to travel from Osaka to Kyoto with Kinetsu pass, the travel duration will be longer and will not worth. That’s why I go for Keihan line instead of Kinetsu. I strongly recommend to purchase Kinetsu pass with proper planning. As it’s really worth for money that you paid and save a lot of time queuing.

This owl cafe is nicely located, though a little hard to find since it's up a staircase off a side street. The waiting area with beverages was welcoming, and the staff were friendly. The area with the owls was brightly lit, and because of the windows it felt like a nice location for the owls to live. A great experience overall.

We were not able to see the whole of Tokyo. Since they hardly speak english, we missed our bus. And the next bus we had to take was on its way back to our pick up point. If we take another color coded bus, it would be too late for us to go back to Shinjuku where we are staying.

When it comes to the night views of Sapporo, there's "Mount Moiwa," "TV Tower," and here at "JR Tower." (Norubesa might be included as well.) Each has its own charm, but especially the night view from the northern side of Sapporo is unique to this location. While it may not have the glitz of the southern side, you can enjoy a more tranquil atmosphere. Additionally, in the observation room, you can purchase a wall clock designed like the "Starry Grand Clock," the symbol of Sapporo Station. It brings back memories of Sapporo even when you're indoors.
札幌の夜景といえば、「藻岩山」「テレビ塔」そしてここ「JRタワー」。(ノルベサもかな)
それぞれに魅力がありますが、特に札幌の北方面の夜景はここならでは。
南方面のようなきらびやかさはありませんが、落ち着いた雰囲気が楽しめます。
なお、展望室では札幌駅のシンボル「星の大時計」と同じデザインの掛時計が購入できます。
部屋の中でも札幌の思い出がよみがえります。

I must say this was one of the best way to see complex city like Tokyo. It was far beyond my expectations. The route covered was awesome, buses were excellent. This saves lot of time that one would spend otherwise understanding Tokyo subways, finding way to the station and out of station (this is huge concern if you have kids). The flexibility to get down on designated spot and hopping on was great. Only suggestion I would give is like in case of Roppongi Odaiba course, the gap between hop on and hop off is too large (almost 3 .5 hours). If they can shorten this, it will provide more flexibility to hop off at more places. Thanks for the good times.

In this course, I could see the outline of Tokyo.
But it was really boring.
-It was freezing day, so I had an impression that would have been needed something to make us warm, like hokkairo. I doubt the company can't make an effort to let the customer spend good time.
-Audio explanation had often been interrupted before it finished. Automatic audio system seems difficult to function in this type of the transportation. The company should provide the human guide for us to explain.
-The explanations itself were sometimes trivial matters, not essence of things.
It wasn't worth to pay enough for 3500yen.

Bus is always on time and does not stay long at every post. You'll get to every destination without having to worry about the travel time.The audio guide is useful as well since it is in sync every time we approach a certain stop. For a tourist with limited time to explore, this activity is very much recommended!
To be candid, I feel the limited time per location 2-3mins tops (if I remember it right) is too short to fully appreciate the experience. But the good thing about this, you'll be able to visit and take pictures at these iconic places.

We reserved with veltra for the Geisha dance show "Gion Odori". The booking was very simple, and the price was the same as if we booked directly. We were surprise because we really had a great place, from where we had a perfect view on the Geishas.
The show was amazing, we couldn't have come in Japan and not see a Geisha dance show. It was even better than we expected and if we come back, we won't hesitate to book one more time with veltra.

The process of buying the tickets through Veltra was easy as we only had to print off our ticket receipt and show this at the door.

An amazing and memorable show. Extremely well worth the time and money if you're in Kyoto at the time, or even altering your trip time to include it if it's not too much of a hassle. If you've seen any of the other seasonal dances it's still worth seeing because of the differences in theatricality, dance and performance style. Excellent.
As for the Tea Ceremony plan, go in with tempered expectations. Chances are you won't be able to see the maiko making/serving the tea and, even if you can, it's even less likely you'll be the one being served. But that's fine as you still get a very nice snack, tea, commemorative plate and kerchief for a very low price. Consider actually seeing the maiko as a bonus and not the main course.
Also, picking up the Program option is well worth it. You can get it at the show as well but it's the same price as just buying online and when you buy online you'll get it right at the door with no extra fuss or muss.
