All Reviews for Tickets

All 3 trips are worthwhile and there's adequate English translation. However I found the time between pickups too long. It meant that if you got off at a couple of things you struggled to complete the loop. They need a few more buses to make the average waiting time 30 minutes, not 60 or 90 minutes.

Customer service was great other than you have long waits at bus stops which can range from hour and half to two hours until pick up time.

I enjoyed a beautiful view from all angles along with a delicious cake set. My child also had a great time. I am very satisfied.

360度の綺麗な景色と美味しいケーキセットをいただきました。
子供も楽しんでいました。
とても満足です。

We went to a nearby place that is suitable for families with children to use our points, and after lunch on our wedding anniversary, my husband and I took our daughter there. Since our daughter is one year old and enjoys walking, the observation floor was very spacious with almost no obstacles, so she seemed to have a great time walking hand in hand. It was also interesting to see buildings that are familiar to Sapporo residents, and it was refreshing to have the opportunity to view the train tracks from above. It became a wonderful memory for our anniversary.

ポイント消化の為に近場で子連れで行ける所で、と思い結婚記念日にランチの後に旦那と3人で行きました。娘が1歳で歩くのが楽しい頃なのですが、展望フロアーはとっても広くて、障害物がほとんどないので手を繋いでずーっと歩いて楽しそうだったので満足です。札幌市民ならではの知っている建物とかを見るのも面白いかったし、なかなか線路を上から見るの機会もないので新鮮でした。
記念日のいい思い出になりました。

5 Persons at ticket counter could process only 1 ticket per 3 minutes

I went to Hokkaido to relax, and I climbed up to see the night view. The air was so clear that the night scenery was very beautiful!

のんびりしたくて北海道に行ったときに、ちょっと夜景を見ようと登りました。空気が綺麗なのか、夜景が澄んでてとても綺麗でした！

After reading many reviews some positive and negative, we decided to try this Hop on Hop off bus ride. We (group of 10) started late due to our distance from Tokyo Station. As we got off the station we asked around to finally get to Mitsubishi building which one cannot miss its signage. It was freezing cold that day on 25th and we did our first ride through the first to last stop on the blue line. It was interesting as we listened to the introductions of the places we passed by through the ear recorder in the language we preferred. Personally, I felt I gained more knowledge as the voice introduced the places we passed through in the comfort of the open decker bus. We then took the purple line to Ginza /Tsukiji. By the time we reached Tsukiji, some shops started closing at 1.30pm. It is best to go early in the morning . We were left with not much time to visit Asakuse instead we took the last bus to go round to view the Tokyo Rainbow bridge in the night. It was a different sight when viewed in the night with all the llightings. I am very sure when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom next week, it is a good idea to take this hop-on hop-off bus as we passed the cherry trees which was budding then.

We are going to recommend our friends who will be visiting Tokyo to try out this bus as it is money well spent to enjoy the whole of Tokyo in a day.

This is my first winter in Sapporo. The city shrouded in snowy clouds is quite lovely. It's nice to enjoy some time slowly with coffee and cake. I'm very happy to have this experience for just a thousand yen.

初めての冬の札幌です。雪曇に霞む街もなかなか良いものです。ゆっくりコーヒーとケーキを楽しみながらの時間も良いものです。千円でこの時間を持てるのは とても嬉しいです。

It was very disappointing that the TV tower became hard to see because it was hidden behind the building under construction! But the night view was beautiful, so that was nice!

テレビ塔が建設中の建物に隠れて見えづらくなってしまったのはとても残念でした！
でも夜景はきれいでよかった！

Overall, I am happy we took your bus tour. We learned much about Tokyo and its history. However, when we got off for a cup of coffee on the Purple line we discovered that the next bus wouldn't be there for over 3 hours. Had to take a cab to get back to the hotel for our dinner reservation. Also, the taped message on the Blue line was not synchronized correctly and was off by several minutes. It was very difficult to place the narrative with the correct scenery.

This was our first time visiting Japan and this was a good way to start our vacation We boarded the sky bus at 3pm and found places we wanted to go back and explore the following day. The audio recording was helpful in giving suggestions of what is available to explore at each stop. The stop was easy to find when wanting to hop back on the bus.
We enjoyed the sky bus tour and the tickets worth worth the price. The entire family found it worth the price, even the teenagers. The tour was fun for the entire family. :) We will return to Japan to do more exploring.
Thank you sky bus team!! Especially the bus driver!!

This is a great way to get an overview of Tokyo and have the ability to get off and explore. We did two of the three lines and felt we had a better layout of Tokyo.
My teenagers even enjoyed it after hours of teasing me prior to arriving for our first ride. The hop on/hop off ability was very nice and the recommendations of why to get off and explore from the audio were helpful. . The stops were easy to find when you wanted to get onto the bus.
It is worth the price and we will ride the sky bus again when we are back in Tokyo. Thanks sky bus for showing us around Tokyo and areas to explore.

This is my second visit, and it was surprisingly quiet for New Year's, which was very nice. The potato soup from the concession stand was delicious. There was also a discount on tickets, so I felt like I got a good deal.

2回目ですが、新年の割には空いていてとても良かったです。売店のじゃがいものスープは美味しかったです。チケットの割引もあり、得した気分です。

On December 23, I was supposed to fly to New Chitose Airport and spend the night in Otaru, then on the 24th, I planned to go up JR Tower to enjoy the view. In the end, there was heavy snowfall that day, and my flight was canceled, forcing me to give up on my trip to Hokkaido. I look forward to the next opportunity to visit.

１２月２３日ヒコーキで千歳空港へ行き、その日は小樽で一泊した後、２４日に
JRタワーに登り景色を堪能する予定でした。結局その日は大雪でヒコーキが欠航し、
北海道旅行そのものを諦めざるを得ませんでした。次回登れる日を楽しみにしております。

This is the first time we visited Tokyo with young children, we chose hop on hop off bus to get an overview of Tokyo. It's very easy for us to find their ticket office in Mitsubishi building, there are plenty of restaurants inside the building thus you can grab someting before boarding the bus. Bus arrival is super on time, clean and spacious. The route design also allow us to view most of the attractive places, bus attendants are helpful and polite.

There are three routes per day for travelers to choose, we managed to go blue & purple line within 24hours, I would strongly advise a well time planning is essential for you to finish all routes.

The disadvantage of the bus route is the bus didn't stop in front of the tourist places, e.g. Sensoji temple (Asakusa line) & Tsukiji fish market. There are about 10min walking distance, as I said, this is our first time in Tokyo, I need to remember where the bus stop is, so that I can find it after visiting the tourist places.

Besides, this is good to have Multilingual Audio Guide in English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese. However, the audio guide will suddenly switch to next introduction before ending the current one. I think this need improvement so that complete information is provided as described

On the first night of my sightseeing in Sapporo, I went to the observation deck.

As someone else mentioned, the reception area was indeed hard to find, and I got a bit lost (laughs).

When I took the elevator to the observation deck and stepped out, the night view of Sapporo took my breath away, and I couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!!!" It was so beautiful! I noticed that Sapporo has many straight roads, which made it very picturesque. That night, there was an event like a Christmas concert, with piano performances of many Christmas songs, creating a fantastic atmosphere! I also enjoyed a complimentary cake set, and the chiffon cake was quite large!

It seems that the men's restroom is quite open! My husband came out very excited (laughs).

This might not be limited to this place, but there were a lot of tourists from Korea and Japanese tourists, and their manners were really bad! They would sit on the floor and not move, or cut in line without hesitation. It was really frustrating. If it weren't for them, I would have enjoyed it even more.

札幌観光初日の夜に行きました。

どなたかも記載されていましたが、確かに受付場所が分かりにくく迷いました(笑)

展望台行きのエレベーターと降りると、目の前に札幌の夜景が飛び込んできて、あまりの美しさに「うわーーーっ！」と声が漏れるほど感動しました！！
札幌って一直線の道路が多いんですね！とても綺麗でした。
この日は、クリスマスコンサートのようなイベントが行われており、
ピアノ演奏でクリスマスソングをたくさん弾いていてムードも抜群でした！
無料のケーキセットも美味しく頂きました。
シフォンケーキがとても大きかったです！

男子トイレがかなり開放的なようですね！
旦那が、かなり興奮して出てきました(笑)

これは、ここに限らず観光地あるあるかもしれませんが、韓国人？日系の観光客がたくさん来ていて
あいつらマジでマナーが悪い！！
床に座り込んで動かなかったり、平気で割り込んで来たり
本当にイラっとしました。
あいつらさえいなかったらもっと楽しめたんですけどね。

I booked this tour hoping my foreign friends would enjoy it. We visited two courses: Asakusa and Odaiba, but the Odaiba course was particularly well-received. The first stop was next to Tokyo Tower. The beautifully lit Tokyo Tower was breathtaking and even for someone living in Japan, it was moving. Since we were on a bus with a transparent upper deck, I was able to take photos of Tokyo Tower from a close-up angle, looking up at it. Additionally, we were lucky enough to see fireworks near the Rainbow Bridge. I wish we could have extended our trip to Roppongi, but there were few buses, so we had to give up. I think the illuminations in Roppongi are beautiful this time of year, so I hope the bus frequency increases a bit. Another issue was that, despite it being Saturday, the service was running on a weekday schedule. According to the staff, they had started running the same schedule all day for a while now. I found out about this on the morning of the tour and had to change my plans, so I felt it would have been helpful if this information was available on the website.

外国人の友達が喜んでくれるといいなと思い、このツアーを予約しました。浅草コースとお台場コースの２つを巡りましたが、特に好評だったのはお台場コースです。まず初めの停留所は東京タワー横。綺麗にライトアップされた東京タワーは圧巻で、日本に住んでいる私にとっても感動的でした。乗車していたのが上がスケルトンになっているタイプのバスだったこともあり、接近して見上げるような角度で東京タワーの写真を撮ることができました。また、偶然にもレインボーブリッジの脇に花火を見ることができ、ラッキーな思いもできました。六本木まで足を伸ばせたら良かったのですが、バスの本数が少なく、断念しました。六本木のライトアップも綺麗な時期だと思うので、もう少し本数が増えれば良いのになぁと思います。また、最も困った点は、土曜日だったにもかかわらず平日ダイヤで運行していたことです。担当の方いはく、少し前から終日同じダイヤで走るようになったとのこと。当日の朝そのことを知り、予定を変えなくてはいけなくなったので、HPの方にも情報が載っていると良かったなと感じました。

Una actuación que recomendaría no perderse a cualquiera que visite Kyoto. Son bailes tradicionales japoneses y es posible que no a todo el mundo le guste pero creo que es algo que hay que conocer. La reserva de los asientos estuvo bien, lo malo que no puedes elegir asiento.

It was fun to see the owls and the people running the cafe were very knowledgeable and helpful.

This is traditional japanese thing you definitely want to see.
I personally love it.
You can watch it only here and only 10 days in a year, SO JUST DO IT.
On the other hand, tea ceremony is not the thing you want spend money on. It's not even ceremony: you just get matcha tea and small sweets.

The opportunity to see the Gion Odori was such a lovely and unique pleasure. The dance was beautiful, and the costumes and sets were spectacular. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to see into the traditional and exquisite world of Geiko and Maiko.

Bus drivers very helpful, staff generally very kind and helpful. The two routes we took encompassed quite a great deal of the city. We preferred the route that took in the Rainbow bridge. We had a job finding the office to collect our ticket after getting our online voucher, but a kindly bus driver took us to the office and dropped us off. Once there we were able to get our tickets and were off. The bus is hop on hop off but limited in time, so we were only able to do the two routes in one day as there was a gap over lunch time, which is why we found a little restaurant near the office to while away the time until the afternoon bus. They are not as frequent as we have found in other cities, but on the whole worthwhile for the money.

It's great that Veltra offered this service which allowed me to buy the ticket in advance. The tickets of this performance were actually only sold at the theater
As I bought it in advance via Veltra, I just collected my ticket at the entrance without worrying about the queue and out of tickets. The show was actually full house when I arrived there! So I highly recommended to buy ticket online in advance.
Before the show, there was a brief tea session in a big room with Maiko performing tea ceremony. The dance performance was like going back in time and totally immersed into Japanese culture!

The show was perfect, but my seat had a partial view of it! I was disappointed because I paid the same amount as other people but couldn't enjoy 100% of the show.

This is the meaning of it all, this is what the Geiko & Maiko are trained for. And this might be one of the very few opportunities that a tourist can see a Geiko perform. Not to be missed if you are in Kyoto during this period.

It was a really good experience, definitely worth doing. We had really good seats right at the front, and thoroughly enjoyed each performance. One of the highlights whilst staying in Kyoto.

Beautiful show of gheishas dancing singing and displaying beautiful kimonos and other costumes

We went to the tea ceremony and geisha performance in Kyoto and thought both weee wonderful. The geisha doing the tea was stunningly graceful- beautiful to watch. Re the performance, the Kabuki in Tokyo had finished the October sessions and the place in Kyoto was still not open after renovations but this performance was fabulous alternative. Beautiful costumes, live musicians, well designed sets etc made for a dramatic performance- not just beautiful girls moving around to recorded music.

Everything was perfect. The tickets were reserved by the time we checked in and the place of the seats were very good (third row quite near to the stage).
