All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

The blue pond was very beautiful. At Tomita Farm, it was a bit disappointing that there was only a little lavender left since the harvest had already finished. However, the lavender soft serve was delicious. Ningle Terrace, with its lodges scattered throughout the forest, was lovely, but it was a bit unfortunate that some of the lodge shops were closed depending on the timing of the visit (those shops were the most interesting). Shirahige Falls looked beautiful because the weather was nice. The tour guide was kind, and the plan allowed us to choose our own lunch, which suited my needs. I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.

青い池がとても綺麗でした。富田ファームは、ラベンダーの刈り入れが終わった後だったので、少ししか無かったのがちょっと残念でした。でもラベンダーソフトは美味しかったです。ニングルテラスは、森の中にロッジが点在する様子は素敵でしたが、訪れたタイミングによって、ロッジの店が閉まっていたり(そういう店ほど興味深い)するので、少し残念でした。白髭の滝は天気が良かったので、綺麗に見えました。添乗員さんも親切で、ランチも各自、自由に取るプランだったので、私のニーズに合っていました。機会があればまた利用したいです。

It was the best tour that allowed us to efficiently see a lot in a short time! We were blessed with great weather, and it became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

短時間で効率よく回れる最高のツアーでした！
お天気にも恵まれとてもよい思い出となりました。
ありがとうございました。

I was able to observe the training of ANA employees, which was a rare experience. Since it's a paid event, it's easier to make a reservation compared to the factory hangar tour, which is great. I'm also happy as a fan to be able to buy exclusive merchandise here.

ANAの従業員さんたちの訓練が見学できて
なかなか無い体験が出来ました
有料と言う事もあり、工場格納庫見学より
予約が取りやすくて良いです
ここ限定のグッズが買えるので
ファンとしては嬉しいです

I realized this was a multinational tour just three days before it started! I participated with some anxiety. I was the only Japanese person; the rest were Westerners and Chinese. However, the guide explained the tour details and the places we would visit in Chinese, and then came to each seat to provide thorough explanations in English and Japanese for the others. I was impressed by their cheerful and energetic demeanor, and I really appreciated it! Thank you.

このツァーが多国籍ツァーだと理解したのが催行3日前！
不安を覚えながらの参加。日本人は私ひとり。あとは西洋の方、中国の方など。
でも、ガイドさんはツァーの内容、この先観光する場所の説明を中国語で説明した後、それ以外の人には席まで来て、英語、日本語で丁寧に説明してくれました。
笑顔、元気を絶やさない働き振りに頭が下がり、とっても好感が持てました！
ありがとうございます。

Since it was a long holiday, they changed the order of our itinerary to consider the traffic. They took us to Aoiike first, so we were able to stick to our schedule time-wise, which was great.

連休だったので、渋滞を考慮してまわる順番を変えてくれました。青池を先にしてくれたので、時間的にも予定どおりまわれて良かったです。

I was impressed by the ease of communication and the attentiveness of the tour guide (ACO). I participated with my grandchild, and we had a great time. Traveling individually would take a lot of time, but the sightseeing bus was excellent. It was a nostalgic trip to Kyoto after 20 years, and it will remain a memorable experience. Thank you for the guidance.

「添乗員さん(ACOさん)の話しやすさ、気配りのすごさに感動しました。
孫との参加でしたが楽しかったです。
個人で移動すると時間がかかるが、観光バスは大変良かったです。
京都観光は、２０年ぶりで懐かしく思い出に残る旅行でした。
ご案内ありがとうございました。

It was a sunny day, but there were plenty of shady spots, and with natural water sources available, I was able to take breaks as needed. Even though I participated alone, I was able to keep up with my group. The guide shared stories about the island's history and lifestyle, and also took photos at various points, which became great memories. I walked about 24,000 steps on the flat trolley path and around 14,000 steps on the well-maintained mountain trails.

晴天でしたが基本的に木陰が多く、天然の水場もあり、適度に休憩を入れてくれたので、体調を崩すことなく1人参加でしたが同班メンバーに遅れず付いてゆけました。ガイドの方には島の歴史や生活の話はもとより所々で写真を撮ってくれ記念になりました。平坦なトロツコ道24,000歩、整備された山道14,000歩位でした

We chose this tour because it was our first time in Okinawa. Since it was peak season and the roads were crowded, I think taking the bus was a good choice. Both adults and children enjoyed visiting attractions like the Pineapple Park and the aquarium, as well as the beautiful ocean! I felt that the 2.5 hours we spent at the aquarium was just right. During the bus ride, the guide provided explanations and information that helped us learn things we didn't know before. I'm glad we participated in the tour and created wonderful memories during our limited time on this trip.

私達は初めての沖縄だったのでこのツアーにお願いしました。ちょうどハイシーズンの沖縄で道路も混んでいたのでバスで良かったと思ってます。子供が楽しめるパイナップルパークや水族館、綺麗な海を見て大人も子供も楽しみました！水族館に2.5時間の滞在でちょうど良かったと感じました。バスの中ではガイドさんの説明や案内があり知らなかった事も理解できて勉強になりました。限られた時間の旅行の中でツアーに参加していい思い出ができてよかったです。

The Shakotan Blue was truly a beautiful shade of blue. It was quite challenging to reach the tip due to the difficult footing (my companion with a fear of heights gave up), but it was worth it for the sense of satisfaction. Exploring Otaru was nice, but it was unfortunate that we had a late lunch and arrived at the Shiroi Koibito Park after the visiting hours had ended. It was also great that there were only a few participants in the tour, allowing for more flexibility.

積丹ブルーは、本当にきれいな青かった
先端まで行くのは結構足元も悪く大変でしたが(高所恐怖症の同伴者は断念しましたが)その分満足感がありました。
小樽散策はよかったのですが、お昼ごはんが遅くなってしまったのと、せっかく立ちよった白い恋人パークは、見学時間が過ぎた時間に到着したのが残念でした
コース参加者が少人数で小回りがきいたのもよかったです。

I participated with my two sons, who are a middle schooler and a high schooler. I was glad that we could explore areas that are difficult to access without a car in just one day. We didn't have enough time at Lake Shikotsu and the Mushroom Kingdom where we had a free lunch, while we felt we had too much time at Lake Toya, so I think it would be better to reconsider the time allocation. Even though it was during the Obon holiday, there were no traffic jams, and it ended on time, which was great. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate in another course as well.

中学生と高校生の息子二人と参加しました。
車がない個人ではなかなか回れないエリアを一日で回れてよかったです。
支笏湖と自由昼食を取ったきのこ王国では時間が足りず、一方で洞爺湖では時間を持て余す感じだったので時間配分を見直すとなおよいと思います。
お盆の時期でしたが、渋滞などもなく、定刻通りに終了したのもよかったです。機会があれば、また別のコースにも参加してみたいです。

As mentioned in other reviews, this was a tour aimed at Chinese visitors. I signed up knowing it would be crowded during the Obon holiday, but there were only 10 people in total (with 3 groups being Chinese), which was quite few. Since we traveled in a large tour bus, we were able to sit comfortably without worrying about the people behind us, and I could fully recline my seat and sleep during the journey, which was great. The guide, Mr. Chou, spoke in Chinese first and then in Japanese, and his smile was wonderful. At Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, we were able to hear explanations that we wouldn't have known if we were on our own, which was nice. At Kamado Hell, we also received explanations unique to the tour, which was great.

他の方の口コミにもあるように
中国の方向けのツアーだったのですが、
お盆で混んでるのを覚悟で申し込みしましたが、
５組で１０人だけ（中国系の方が３組）と少なかったんですが、大きな観光バスで行けたので、とてもゆったり座れて後ろの人のことも気にせずにリクライニングも全開に倒して移動は眠れたので、良かったです。
ガイド（チョウ）さんも中国語の後に日本語を
話してくださり、笑顔もすてきでした。
太宰府天満宮でも、自分たちだけなら知らなかった説明を聞けて良かったです♪
かまど地獄でもツアーならではの説明も聞けて良かったです♪

Thanks to our guide Yazaki, we had the best time. The journey to Jomon Sugi is quite long, so as a beginner, I might have given up without the guide. The guide provided explanations and engaged in casual conversation at just the right moments, which made the hike enjoyable.

Since our group had many young people, we started a bit earlier and walked at a faster pace to capture Instagram-worthy photos. Thanks to the guide's pacing, we were able to take our time at photo spots like Wilson's stump and Jomon Sugi when there were fewer people around. Because we maintained a slightly faster pace, we even had time to cool off by dipping our feet in the river on the way back.

The guide was flexible and adapted to the group's needs. It was the best experience; thank you very much!

ガイドのやざきさんのおかげで、最高の時間でした。
縄文杉までの道のりはとにかく長いので、初心者の私はガイドさんなしでは挫折していたかもしれません。ガイドさんが適宜ご説明や雑談を挟んでくれ、盛り上げてくれたおかげで楽しく完歩することができました。
私たちのグループは若者が多かったため、インスタ映えするような写真を撮れるようにと、少し早めに出発したり早めのペースで歩きました。ガイドさんのペース配分のおかげで、ウィルソン株や縄文杉などの写真スポットでは他の人が少ない時間帯にゆっくりと写真を撮ることができました。少し早めのペースだったため、帰り道では川に足をつけてクーリングする時間もありました。
グループのメンバーに合わせて柔軟に対応してくださるガイドさんのおかげです。最高の体験でした、ありがとうございました。

The food was not good.
Perhaps because there are many foreign guests, the announcements were just loud.
It was noisy inside the vehicle.
The meals should be reconsidered.

ご飯美味しくなかった
海外客が多いからか案内もただうるさい
車内もうるさかった
食事は考えるべき

The itinerary was reasonable and well-structured, but due to the presence of many international participants, there were language issues. I would have appreciated more sightseeing information and explanations. I wasn't aware that international participants would be joining when I made the reservation, so I would like that information to be included on the booking site. There was no issue with the guide themselves, but I would have liked a note indicating whether it was "Japanese only" or "open to international participants."

リーズナブルで行程内容は良かったのですが、
海外の方が多く言葉の問題があるためか、
もっと観光案内、説明等がほしかったです。
海外の方も参加する旨が、予約する際に分からなかったので、予約サイトに記載していただきたいです。
ガイドさん自体に問題はないので、「日本人のみ」、「海外の方も参加」のように、
その旨の記載があってほしかったです。

I started living in Sapporo in April, and when I asked the locals where to go right now, I received multiple responses suggesting Shakotan, so I thought I definitely have to go! However, since I was a paper driver, I was wondering how to get there, but it turns out there’s a tour that takes you directly from the station!

I participated with my child, not knowing what to expect, but both the driver and the guide were very friendly and wonderful. The guide's stories were fascinating, and I really enjoyed it! I was impressed by how much they remembered and their extensive experience. They took us around smoothly, and the timing was excellent, making it a fantastic tour.

Shakotan was unexpectedly adventurous, which was a delightful surprise. I recommend going with minimal luggage and wearing proper shoes. I was so satisfied that I felt like I wanted to conquer all the tours offered by Hokkaido Bus!

4月から札幌に住み始め、道民の方に今行くならどこ？と聞いてみると積丹との回答を複数からもらいましたので、これはいくっきゃない！と。でもペーパードライバーだったのでどう行くかなと思っていたらなんとピッタリ駅前から連れて行ってくれるツアーがあるじゃないですか！！
どんなものかわからず子連れで参加しましたが、運転手さんもガイドさんもとても対応が柔らかくて素敵です。
ガイドさんのお話も興味深くかなり楽しめました！ほぼ記憶されていて経験値がすごいなと感服です。
小気味よくあちこち連れて行ってくれます。時間の目安もなるほど抜群で素晴らしいツアーでした。
積丹はまさかのアドベンチャーで、嬉しい想定外でした。荷物は少なく、きちんとした靴で行くことをお勧めします。
北海道バスさんのツアー全部制覇したい気持ちになるくらい満足しました！

You can efficiently visit four places. It's perfect for those who want to see the sights in just one day due to time constraints! Since you'll be visiting four locations, there won't be much time for shopping, but it's efficient.

4ヶ所を効率よく回れます。時間がなく1日で名所を回りたい！ていう方にで最適。
4ヶ所回るので、買い物時間などはゆっくりありませんが、効率的です。

It was good that we managed to go around efficiently without feeling too rushed. Despite the approaching typhoon, there was no wind, and both the mangrove tour and the water buffalo cart ride were very hot. Depending on the climate, hydration and fans are essential. It was close to high tide, but we were able to enjoy the atmosphere. The greenery of Iriomote Island was truly beautiful. There was also a place on Yubu Island where we could take pictures with the water buffalo. They were very warm to the touch and had cute faces. I didn't have high expectations for lunch, but it was delicious.

I thought the kids might get tired, so I decided to go to Taketomi Island on a different day and chose this tour instead. (We were together with the people on the three-island tour for a while, but most of them were going to all three islands.) I went to Taketomi Island on a different day, but since we weren't swimming, I thought it might have been fine to do the three-island tour after all.

効率よく回ったわりには慌ただしさもさほどなく良かったです。台風が近づいていた割には風がなく、マングローブツアーも水牛車もとても暑かったです。気候によっては水分や扇風機など必須です。満潮近くでしたが、雰囲気は味わえました。西表島は山の緑が本当にとても美しかったです。また、由布島内で水牛と写真を撮るところもありました。触ったらとても温かく、かわいい顔をしていました。お昼ご飯もあまり期待していませんでしたが美味しかったです。
子供が疲れてしまうかと思い、竹富島は別の日に行こうと思いこのツアーにしました。(3島巡りのツアーの方々と途中まで一緒でしたがほとんどの方は3島でした)
別日に竹富島に行きましたが(泳ぐわけではなかったので)、3島巡りにしても良かったかなと思いました。

I wasn't sure what training would be available that day, but even the ground staff were lacking. Since it was a paid service, I might have had too high expectations. I wished there had been a bit more creativity, like offering snacks that would be served on board. It was disappointing that there was nothing I wanted to buy from the souvenir shop. I won't be going again.

その日によって見れる訓練が分からないと言うことでしたが、グランドスタッフくらいでものたりなかった。有料でしたのでちょっと期待し過ぎたかな。機内で出るお菓子とかも出していただけるとかもう少し工夫が欲しかった。お土産の販売も何も買いたいものがなかったのが残念。もう行くことはないです。

It's perfect for those who want to explore various places in Okinawa! However, there's never enough time everywhere! I was hopping on and off in the heat... It was very fulfilling, but also very tiring.

Also, since there aren't any scheduled bathroom breaks, it might be tough for those with small children.

Additionally, the bus seats can't recline, so it was hard to get any rest...

I might not use this service again... I would appreciate a tour that's a bit more relaxed.

盛りだくさんで、色々沖縄を周りたい人にはピッタリ！
ただ、時間がどこでも足りないー！！
バタバタと暑い中乗ったり降りたり…
とっても充実してたけど、とっても疲れたー

あと、トイレ休憩の時間が取られてないので、小さいお子さんがいる方は大変かも？

また、バスの座席は倒せないルールで寝れないし、辛かった…

次はもう利用しないかな…
もう少しゆったりなツアーがあると嬉しいです。

I participated for my son, who dreams of becoming a pilot. Since I also dreamed of working for ANA when I was younger, it was both enviable and a valuable experience to see everyone receiving training in such a bright environment. There weren't too many participants, which created a homey atmosphere, so I took advantage of the words of the current cabin attendant who encouraged us to feel free to ask questions, and I asked various questions driven by curiosity. Among the participants, there was someone who seemed to be preparing for a job interview, and that person was also asking various questions, but they answered every question politely, making it a fulfilling time. It would have been even better if the souvenir corner had been more substantial.

パイロットを夢見る息子のために参加しました。
私自身も若い頃はANAで働くことを夢見ていたので、明るい環境でそれぞれ研修を受けている姿を見られることは羨ましくまた貴重な体験となりました。参加者が多すぎずアットホームな感じだったので、どうぞ気軽に質問してくださいと案内してくださった現役CAの方の言葉に甘えて、好奇心の赴くまま色んな質問をさせていただきました。参加者の中に恐らく就職試験の準備をしていると伺われる方がいらっしゃって、その方も様々な質問をされていましたが、どんな質問にも丁寧に答えて頂き充実した時間でした。お土産コーナーがもっと充実していたらもっとよかったかな。

This tour had everything I wanted to see.
It was an English tour, but thank you for mixing in some Japanese as well.
I really enjoyed my time in Kyoto after a long while.
It was fun to meet people from various countries.
The only downside was that there was someone who was late for the meeting time, which caused a slight delay in our departure.
Other than that, the duration at each location was just right, and I made great memories.
Thank you very much.

行きたいところが、全てあるツアーがこのツアーでした。
英語のツアーでしたが、日本語も混ぜて下さり、ありがとうございました。
久しぶりの京都で、満喫できました。
いろんな国の方がいらして、楽しかったです。
１つだけ、やはり集合時間に遅れる方がいらしたので、少し出発などが遅れたことが残念でした。
そのほかは、各所の滞在時間もちょうどよく、良い思い出ができました。
ありがとうございました。

As others have mentioned, the Chinese guide who was fluent in both Japanese and English was wonderful. Aside from myself, everyone else was a foreigner (all from China except for one person from Italy), but it was a comfortable trip with strict adherence to the schedule, not a group tour.

他の方も書いていらっしゃるように、日英に堪能な中国語のガイドさんが素晴らしかったです。私以外、皆外国の方（イタリア１人以外は中国）でしたが、団体旅行ではなく、時間厳守で快適な旅でした。

The bus arrived at the hotel right at 9:45. I requested the course to Pineapple Park and the aquarium hoping the kids would enjoy it, and along the way, the guide shared a lot about Okinawa's history and culture, which was fun. At Pineapple Park, there were dinosaurs, and the kids were super excited. I was happy to be able to taste some wine. The color of the sea at Kōrijima took my breath away. The aquarium was so big that some foreigners were running late, but overall, I think we stayed on schedule. My son mentioned that he wants to show the guide, who has never seen snow, some snow one day. I would like to join other tours as well.

9:45ピッタリにホテルにバスが到着しました。子どもが喜べばとパイナップルパークと水族館のコースを頼んだのですが、道中ガイドさんが沖縄の歴史や文化をたくさん話してくれて楽しかったです。パイナップルパークでは恐竜がいて子どものテンション爆上がりでした。私はワインが試飲できてよかったかな。こおりしまの海の色、心が震えました。水族館は大きすぎて時間に遅れる外人さんいたけど概ね予定通りに進んだと思います。雪を見た事のないガイドさんに、いつか雪を見せたいと息子が申しておりました。また他のツアーも参加したいです。

It seemed difficult to tour Kyoto by rental car, and using trains and buses seemed hot and challenging... After some consideration, I joined a day trip bus tour from Umeda to Kyoto! It was a great decision. The guide was very kind, and we were able to visit the popular sightseeing spots on time. It was wonderful to relax in the cool bus during the travel time.

レンタカーで京都を巡るのは難しそうだし 電車やバスを利用するのは暑いし大変そう…と悩んだ末 梅田発の京都日帰りバスツアーに参加しました！
大正解でした〜
ガイドさんは とても親切だし 時間通りに定番観光地を回れました
移動時間 涼しいバスの中で休めたのは最高でした

It was a long journey, but many parts of the path were well-maintained and easy to walk on. The guide was entertaining, and it was enjoyable to hear stories beyond just Jomon Sugi.

長い道のりでしたが、道も整備されているところも多く、歩きやすかったです。ガイドさんが話も面白く、縄文杉以外の話も聞けて楽しかったです。

I participated in the half-day course, and even though it was just half a day, I was able to fully enjoy it. The river water was extremely soft and easy to drink. The pickup and drop-off service to the hotel was really helpful.

半日コースに参加して、半日ではありますが満喫する事ができました。川の水が超軟水で飲みやすかったです。ホテルまでのお迎えから送迎まで本当に助かりました。

I often use VELTRA when traveling. It's recommended because you can easily enjoy day trips for sightseeing. This time, I went to the Shakotan Peninsula to enjoy the breathtaking nature. First, I brought the printed voucher to the counter for processing, but I think it might be better to switch to e-vouchers soon. They check the printed paper and give you a boarding ticket, but that paper is returned immediately after checking, so I think displaying it on my phone would be sufficient. Also, as mentioned in the notes, they can hold large luggage, so it's best to go directly without worrying about it. I unnecessarily stored mine in a coin locker. The Chuo Bus has power outlets at each seat, so you can easily charge your smartphone. This time, the bus was almost full, with about eight foreign passengers. The guide was a Japanese person who was a bit shy with foreign languages but was very skilled at explaining, making the bus ride comfortable.

At Cape Shakotan, the weather was good, and we could see the wonderful scenery of the steep cliffs. After that, we had a seafood bowl at Hamazushi, which was also exquisite. It seemed there was fishing that day, so we could enjoy the local specialty of fresh sea urchin, but it was a bit pricey due to market prices. (A small plate costs 1500 yen extra.) It looked incredibly delicious.

After lunch, we headed to Cape Kamui. This is the cape at the tip of the Shakotan Peninsula. We walked to the tip, clinging to the steep cliffs. It takes nearly 20 minutes one way on a narrow path, but the view at the end is exceptional. It was an unusually hot day for Hokkaido, and I was sweating, but there was a strong, pleasant wind blowing. The wind made a whistling sound. You need to be careful not to let your hat fly away or drop your camera or phone. This is the destination of the trip, where you can enjoy the view from a high point. The cobalt blue sea is very beautiful, and you can take many wonderful photos.

After that, we enjoyed the underwater scenery from the Shakotan Underwater Observatory Boat. This is optional, but almost everyone boarded and enjoyed it. Along the way, you can see underwater from the bottom of the boat, where you can spot small fish and sea urchins. You can enjoy the scenery from the boat, and I think the front and left sides have the best views. On the way back, you can feed the seagulls. Each person receives a small bucket of food, making it a fun experience. A huge number of seagulls come flying in, creating an impressive sight.

Finally, we stopped by Tanaka Sake Brewery for a factory tour and tasting. Some people got off here to go sightseeing in Otaru. On the way back, we were dropped off at various locations, making it a very enjoyable day trip. It was great to be guided by bus to places that are hard to visit alone. Although it can be affected by the weather, I think if it's sunny, you can fully enjoy nature.

旅行の際に、このVELTRAをよく利用しています。気軽に日帰りで観光が楽しめるので、お勧めです。
今回は絶景の自然を楽しめる積丹半島へ行きました。はじめに印刷したバウチャーを持って窓口で手続きをするのですが、こちらはそろそろｅバウチャーに変えたほうがいいかなと思いました。紙で印刷したものを確認して乗車券をいただくのですが、その紙も確認をしたらすぐ戻されるので、携帯表示で充分かなと思います。また備考にも書いてありますが、大きな荷物を預かってくれるので、そのまま行くといいと思います。私はわざわざコインロッカーに預けてしまった。中央バスは、一人ひとりの座席にコンセントがあるので、スマートフォンの電源が気軽に取れます。今回バスはほぼ満席で、外国の方が8人程度乗っていました。ガイドさんは、日本の方で外国語がちょっと苦手のベテランの方でした。とても説明が上手で、バスの中も快適に過ごすことができました。
積丹岬のしまむい海岸は、天候も良く、断崖絶壁の素晴らしい景色が見られました。その後、はま寿司で海鮮丼を食べますか、これもまた絶品のうまさ。その日は漁があったようで地元名産の生ウニも食べることができますが、時価ともあり若干高めです。〈ちっちゃな小皿で1500円別料金。〉凄く美味しそうでした。
昼食後、神威岬に向かいました。ここは積丹半島の先頭にある岬です。断崖絶壁にへばりつくようにして、岬の先端まで歩きます。細い歩道を歩いて行きますが、片道20分近くかかりますが、ゴールの景色は格別です。北海道にしてはすごく暑い日で、汗が流れ落ちますが、すごく強風が吹いていて心地よかったです。風がヒューヒューと音を立てています。帽子などは飛ばないように気をつけたり、カメラや携帯を下に落とさないように気をつけたりしなくてはいけません。ここが旅の目的地、高台から景色を楽しみます。コバルトブルーの海がとても綺麗で、素敵な写真がたくさん撮れます。
その後、積丹水中展望船で海面から海中や岬の景色を楽しみます。こちらはオプションになっていますが、ほぼほぼ全員乗船し楽しみました。途中、船の下で水中を見ることができます。小さな魚やウニを見ることができます。船では景色を楽しむことができます。船では、前の部分や左側が景色が良いと思います。帰り道にかもめの餌付けができます。一人ひとりに小さなバケツでたくさんの餌がもらえるので、楽しみながらできます。すごい数のかもめが飛んできて迫力満点です。
最後に、田中酒造へより工場見学をしたり試飲をしたりしました。ここで降りて、小樽に観光に出かける方もいました。帰りはそれぞれの場所で降ろしていただき、とても楽しい日替わり旅行になりました。
なかなか1人で行けないところをバスで案内していただきとても良かったです。天候にも左右されますが、晴れていたらとっても自然を満喫できると思います。

I searched for a tour from Naha to the Churaumi Aquarium and decided on this packed tour from VELTRA, which I always use. My honest impression is that maybe just the Churaumi Aquarium would have been enough? This aquarium has the famous large tank, and the power of this tank is incredible; I was captivated for a long time watching the graceful swimming of whale sharks and rays. There’s also an outdoor area with dolphins and manatees, and above all, the aquarium grounds are spacious, so it takes time to walk around. Unfortunately, the two hours we had were not enough, and I regretted not being able to spend more time at the aquarium if we were going to allocate time to places like the Okashi Goten and Ryukyu Village. Next time, I’ll choose a tour that focuses more on the aquarium (maybe plus one more stop?).

From referring to other experiences, I realized that the biggest issue with this bus tour was that the foreign male guide had difficulty with Japanese and didn’t provide any explanations beyond the meeting and departure times. I really wanted to have a good guide…

美ら海水族館に那覇から行けるツアーを探して、いつも利用しているVELTRAさんのツアーを検索し、盛りだくさんのこちらのツアーに決めました。率直な感想としては、美ら海水族館だけでよかったかな？こちらの水族館には、例の有名な大水槽があり、この水槽の迫力はすごくて、ジンベイザメやエイなどが優雅に泳ぐ様子に長らく目を奪われます。屋外でもイルカやマナティーのコーナーもあり、何より、水族館の敷地も広くて、歩き回るにも時間がかかります。とても決められた２時間では時間が足りず、残念でした。お菓子御殿や琉球村等に時間を割くのであれば、水族館に十分時間をかけたかったです。次は水族館（＋１くらい？）のツアーにします！
※他の体験談を参照して、今回のバスツアーは、ガイドの外国人男性が日本語も不自由で、何時に集合・出発以外、これといった説明もしていただけなかったことが一番の問題だとわかりました。良いガイドさんにあたりたかったです…。

Since it can be quite challenging to explore Sapporo individually, I signed up for a tour that included the places I wanted to visit. This was the right decision. The bus took us comfortably to our destinations, making it easy, and the duration of our stay was just right for me. The bus driving was careful and pleasant.

The Okurayama Jump Stadium was truly impressive and worth seeing. At the Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill, I could overlook the vast grasslands and really feel that I was in Hokkaido. Since dinner was in Susukino, I was grateful to be dropped off there on the way back, saving time.

If I have the chance to come to Hokkaido again, I would like to participate in a different tour.

札幌観光を個人で別々に行くのも大変なので、丁度行きたいところがツアーにあったので申し込みました。
これが正解でした。　バスでゆったりと目的地まで連れて行ってくれるので楽だし、私にとって滞在時間も丁度良かったです。　
バスの運転も丁寧で心地良かったです。
大倉山のジャンプ台は本当に圧巻でした。見る価値あります。
羊ヶ丘展望台も広い草原が見渡せて「北海道に来た」と実感出来ます。
夕飯の場所がすすきのだったので、帰りもそこで降ろして貰えたので時間の無駄も無く有り難かったです。
次回、北海道に来る事あれば、また違うツアーに参加してみたいと思いました。

Since I was staying at a hotel in Naha City, I was wondering how to get to the Churaumi Aquarium, but then I found and applied for this plan. I was also glad to be able to visit the Nago Pineapple Park, which I had been interested in for a while. It was a full-day tour, but it was very fulfilling, and I am extremely satisfied. Thank you very much.

那覇市内のホテルに泊まっていたため、美ら海水族館は遠く、どうしようかと思っていたところ、こちらのプランを見つけ申し込みました。
以前より興味があった名護パイナップルパークも行けてよかったです。
一日ツアーになりますが、とても充実しており大満足です。ありがとうございました。
