All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

There was a lot of moving around, and I felt that the time spent at each sightseeing spot was a bit lacking. It might be good for those who want to efficiently visit many places in one day.

移動が多く、それぞれの観光時間が少し物足りなく感じました。効率よく一日でたくさん回りたい方にはいいかもしれません。

I had only booked my flight and hotel for my first trip to Okinawa, and while I was considering renting a car, I ended up searching for bus tours and found this site, where I made a trial reservation. The result was the best trip ever. Around 8 AM, the guide came to pick me up at the hotel lobby and escorted me to the bus parked nearby. After that, we headed north, picking up guests in front of various hotels, visiting several sightseeing spots, and thoroughly enjoying the main attraction, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Finally, we went to a souvenir shop, and I returned to my hotel at around 7:30 PM. For lunch, you can either grab something quick at each sightseeing spot or buy something in advance to eat on the bus. I chose the latter and had a great time at the attractions. Along the way, the guide shared stories about the scenery and introduced the charm of Okinawa, pointing out various highlights and even mentioning which tourist spots had slow cash registers. It was a delightful and educational day. Since the tour fee included admission to all the places, I didn’t have to do anything special—just enjoy myself, which was fantastic. I kept thinking how tough it would have been if I had rented a car, with a two-hour drive each way and the wait time for tickets.

初沖縄旅行に飛行機とホテルしか決まってなく、レンタカーにしようかなと思いつつ、バスツアーを探したら、こちらのサイトに辿り着き、試し予約してみました。結果としては最高の旅でした。朝8時頃にホテルロビーまでガイトさんが迎えに来られ、ホテルのそばに停めてあったバスの席まで案内し、その後は北上しながら各ホテル前までお客さんを受け入れ、いくつかの観光地をめぐり、メインとなる美ら海水族館をたっぷりと満喫したあと、最後のスポットとなるお土産のところまでいき、その後は各ホテルまでお客さんを送り帰す、僕の泊まっていたホテルに着いたのが夜7時半です。昼食は各観光地にて手早く簡単に済ませるか、事前に買って置いてバス中で食べるのもできます。僕は後者を選択して、観光地で思いきり楽しんできました。道中にガイトさんから風景にまつわるお話や沖縄の風情に関する紹介、各所の見るポイントとどこの観光地のレジ精算が遅いまでいろいろ教えてもらい、とても愉快で、勉強となった1日でした。ツアー料金に各所の入場料も含めていたので、自分が特に何かをする事もなく、ただただ楽しむだけ、最高でした。もし自分がレンタカーを借りてしまったら、片道2時間の運転と入場券買うの待ち時間はどんなだけ辛いことだろうと次ぐ次ぐ思いました。

I mostly enjoyed it, but.
As the title suggests, Pineapple Park was a bit disappointing.
It was different from what I expected, and I was let down...

ほぼ楽しめました、が。
タイトル通りパイナップルパークは、ちょっとガッカリでした
期待してたのとは違い、残念でした…

The sightseeing time was very well considered... I was able to fully enjoy the places I wanted to visit in Kyoto‼️

What was disappointing was that for lunch... I had ordered the tofu set meal, but everyone on the bus had the tempura set meal.

But! Everyone on the bus was very gentlemanly, and I had a very meaningful day! I am grateful! Thank you very much!

それぞれの観光時間も、とても配慮された時間内で‥
きょうとの行きたかった所を‼️
満喫させて貰いました！

残念だったのが
昼食で‥豆腐御膳を頼んでたのに‥
バスの皆んな全員が、天ぷら御膳でした

でも！　
バスの中も紳士的な方ばかりで‥
とても有意義な1日を過ごさせて頂き！
感謝してます！　ありがとうございました！

There was someone who wrote about this experience before, and anyway, the meeting place is hard to find... It seems that nothing has improved since it was written before. I would like it to be made clear at a glance that this is the meeting place.
The bus tour was great, and the tour guide's service was excellent, so I was very satisfied.
If I have another opportunity to go to Kyoto, I would like to participate in a different course.
Thank you very much.

以前、この体験談で書かれていた方がいましたが とにかく集合場所が分かりにくい... 以前 書かれていた時から全く改善されていないようでした。一目でここが集合場所と分かるようにして欲しいです。
バスツアーの方は添乗員さんの対応も良く大満足でした。
また京都に行く機会があれば別のコースで参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I heard that the ANA BLUE BASE Aviation Training Center is currently offering a facility tour program, and I was really glad that I made a reservation in advance to match my schedule. The tour was enjoyable and fulfilling on the day of the visit. At the end of the tour, they also sell exclusive souvenirs from ANA BLUE BASE, so I was really happy to be able to purchase some souvenirs as well. I would love to visit again if I have the opportunity next time. I highly recommend this tour program to anyone interested in aviation.

ANA BLUE BASE航空訓練センター施設見学プログラムが運営中というお知らせを聞き、日程に合わせて事前に予約して見学当日楽しく充実した見学ができて本当に良かったです。見学の最後の部分にANA BLUE BASE限定のお土産も販売中なので、お土産も購入できて本当に良かったし、次回機会になればまた観覧したいと思います。 航空側に興味のある方にぜひお勧めしたい見学プログラムです。

It was raining, and the boat to Iriomote Island was rocking quite a bit, but when I boarded the mangrove cruise ship, the rain lightened up and it was great to open the windows for viewing. The boat got close to the sights, and the guide was very clear and informative, which was wonderful. The water buffalo on Yubu Island were also interesting, and the guide's stories were entertaining, but it seemed that from the very back seat, the voice didn't reach very well, so I recommend sitting at the front!

雨が降っており、西表に行く船はよくゆれたがマングローブのクルーズ船に乗った時は、小雨になり窓を開けての見学はとても良かったです。近くまで船が寄ってくれ、ガイドの方も分かりやすくとてもよかったです。
由布島の水牛も、ガイドさんの話が面白くてよかったが、一番うしろの席だと声はあまり届かなかったようなので、一番前がお勧めですね♪

I was able to efficiently visit three remote islands.
(I think it would have been difficult for an individual on their first time.)
This is a recommended tour for first-timers.

離島３島をとても効率よくまわることができました。
（初めてで個人ならば難しかったと思います。）
初めての方におすすめのツアーです。

I was grateful for the shuttle service from the hotel. Although there was no tour guide, I had no trouble and was able to enjoy sightseeing smoothly. It was nice that I could use the bus to visit the village and Kaiji Beach during my free time on Taketomi Island.

ホテルから送迎があるのが有り難かったです。
添乗員は居ないけど困ることはなくスムーズに観光出来ました。
竹富島はフリータイムでしたがバス利用で集落やカイジ浜に行けたので良かったです。

The bus driver's storytelling was excellent.
The stories were so engaging that the atmosphere in the bus was lively.

This was my first time visiting, and although it was a whirlwind one-day tour,
everyone was very satisfied, especially since it was my mother's wish to go.

I have created more memories with my mother on this trip. ♡

バスの運転手さんのお話が上手。
〇み〇ろ並みのお話で、車内盛り上がりました。

今回、初の上陸、駆け足での1日のツアーではありましたが、
「行きたい」と言ってくれた母の立っての場所という事もあり、
同行者全員大満足でした。

母との旅の思い出がまた増えました♡

Overall, I think it's a great value tour, but places like Pineapple Park can feel a bit rushed, so those who aren't fond of packed tours might want to reconsider. I personally enjoyed being able to visit so many places! I think it's considerate that admission tickets to each facility are included.

全体的にはお得なツアーだと思いますが、パイナップルパークとかは割と急ぎ足なので、詰め込みツアーが苦手な人は止めといた方が良いですね。自分はこのくらい色々と行けるのが楽しいので良かったです！
各施設の入場券が含まれてるのは良心的だと思います。

I was satisfied to be able to visit famous spots in one day. I would like to come again during the off-peak season. The guide was kind and charming, making it a great memory. Thank you very much.

有名所を一日で回れて満足です。
今度はオフピークの時期にまた来たいです。
ガイドさんも親切、チャーミングで良い思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

The guide was simply wonderful. I was impressed by how skillfully they switched between Japanese and Chinese, keeping both Japanese and inbound tourists engaged. They had a wealth of information, and although it wasn't my first time in Hokkaido, I learned many things I didn't know, making it a meaningful day. Unfortunately, at the end at Lake Shikotsu, two inbound guests did not return to the bus by the departure time. The guide made several trips back and forth between Lake Shikotsu and the bus, desperately searching for them, but ultimately, we couldn't make contact until the tour ended, leaving a somewhat unsatisfactory feeling about the tour. I hope the two of them are safe. Thank you to our guide, Onodera, and our driver, Hinata, for a fun tour.

とにかくガイドさんが、素晴らしかった。日本語と中国語を巧みに使い分け、日本人も、インバウンドも退屈させないよう聞いていて感心しました。情報も沢山お持ちで、北海道は初めてではありませんでしたが、知らなかったこともいろいろ教えてもらい、有意義な一日になりました。残念だったのは、最後の支笏湖で、インバウンドの２名様が、出発時間になってもバスに戻ってこなかったこと。ガイドさんは何度も支笏湖とバスを往復し、必死に探していましたが、結局ツアー終了まで、連絡が取れず、なんとなく後味のすっきりしないツアーになってしまいました。お二人がご無事であったことを祈念しています。ガイドの小野寺さん、ドライバーの日向さん、楽しいツアーありがとうございました。

I joined Maria's tour with an American who was visiting Kyoto for the first time. It seemed challenging to guide in both Japanese and English, but it was very informative and I was extremely satisfied. If you were to explore on your own, you wouldn't be able to cover this much in a day, so I think it's a well-structured plan for first-time visitors to Kyoto. However, for those who want to take their time, revisiting on a separate day might be a good option. I definitely want to recommend this to my friends.

京都初めてのアメリカ人と一緒にマリアさんのツアーに参加しました。
日本語と英語両方でガイドされて大変そうでしたが、とてもinformative で大満足でした。個人だと１日でここまでまわれないので、京都初めての人にはとても良く構成されたプランだと思います。ただ、ゆっくり周りたい方は個別で後日に再訪もアリかな、と思います。友達にもぜひおすすめしたいです。

There is a walking course in Yufushima, and I was truly able to enjoy nature surrounded by tropical trees! The lunch was also delicious Okinawan cuisine.

由布島の中は散策できるコースがあり、まさに南国の木々に囲まれた自然を満喫できました！昼食も沖縄料理で美味しかったです。

It snowed in the morning and it was beautiful, but it was a bit disappointing that it was sunny in the afternoon. It’s pretty when it’s sunny too, but when the snow accumulates, it’s even more beautiful. The experience changes with the weather. I felt the time was short, but there are few buses available, so I recommend it for those without a car!

午前中に雪が降って綺麗だったんですが午後は晴れて少し残念でした。晴れた時も綺麗ですがやっぱり雪が積もるともっと綺麗。天気によって体感が変わる所。時間が短いと感じましたが利用できるバスが少ないので車が無い人はおすすめです！

The guide was very kind and attentive, providing thorough explanations all the way to Taiko Rock. As a trekking beginner, I caused various inconveniences, but I am sincerely grateful for the opportunity to participate. Thank you very much.

とても優しい気遣いのあるガイドさんで、太鼓岩まで丁寧に説明していただきトレッキング初心者で色々とご迷惑をおかけしましたが参加させて頂き心から感謝しています。ありがとうございました。

I was able to efficiently explore each island in a short amount of time while truly experiencing their charm. I would like to request this again.

短時間で効率良く回りながら、それぞれの島の魅力もちゃんと感じることができました。またお願いしたいです。

I was able to relax on Iriomote Island and Taketomi Island in just one day. The colors of the sea and sky were wonderful, so I've decided to go again in June. Next time, I want to experience the sunset and stargazing.

1日で西表島と竹島をゆったりできました、海や空の色が素晴らしく6月に再度いくことにしました。
次回はサンセットや星空観察など体験したいと思います。

It was a fun tour where we could visit ANA's training facility under the guidance of active pilots in training and cabin attendants. If you're lucky, you might even see cabin attendants in training!

This tour is definitely enjoyable for those who want to research the company if they wish to work for ANA, as well as for anyone who loves airplanes. It was a wonderful tour where we could also learn about ANA's sincere commitment to safety.

現役のパイロット訓練中の方とCAさんのガイドのもと、 ANAの訓練施設を見学できる楽しいツアーでした。運が良いと、実際に訓練中のCAさんを見る事ができたりします！
ANAで働きたい方の企業研究はもちろんの事、飛行機が大好きという方は絶対に楽しめるツアーだと思います。
ANAの安全に対する真摯な取組みも学べる素敵なツアーでした。

I participated with my girlfriend. I was wondering whether to take the train from Sapporo, but the transfers were inconvenient and it would take quite a bit of time and money, so I chose the bus. This was the right choice. You might think it takes a long time, but it actually takes the same amount of time by train. It was inexpensive, and we could get off in the downtown area on the way back, making dinner reservations easy. We also got to see the much-anticipated penguin parade up close, which was really great.

彼女と参加。札幌から電車で行こうか迷っていたのですが、乗り継ぎが悪く、結構時間おお金もかかるので、バスにしました。
これ、正解でした。長いなぁと思うかもしれませんが、電車でも結局同じ時間かかります。これ、格安で、しかも帰りは繁華街に降りれるので夕飯の予約も簡単でした。
お待ちかねのペンギンの行進も間近で見れて、とってもよかったです。

I was really looking forward to exploring Yanbaru, which can be a bit difficult to navigate casually. I was also a bit anxious about traveling alone, wondering if I would feel out of place or if I would enjoy it. However, once the tour started, I was relieved to see other solo travelers, as well as groups and international participants! During the tour, we encouraged each other to take photos at various stops while listening to the guide's stories. It was a fun style where everyone could enjoy at their own pace.

The itinerary was perfectly balanced, addressing the concerns I had about managing time and the hassle of driving or transferring on my own. The staff accompanying us were very efficient, making the typically sluggish bus tour run smoothly. One thing to keep in mind is to avoid scheduling anything time-sensitive after the tour, as the evening traffic in Okinawa can be quite intense, and accidents happen frequently.

So for those considering solo travel, I highly recommend this tour!

『なかなか気軽に周れないやんばる、どんなところか楽しみ！』『でも1人で浮かないかな...楽しめるかな...』とツアーが始まるまで期待と変な不安もありましたが、あけてみれば一人旅の方も居る！もちろんグループや海外の方も！と一安心。途中ガイドさんの話を聞くとき、立ち寄る場所での写真撮影などお互いに声かけ合ったり。もちろん自分のペースで見て回ったりもできる感じで各々が楽しむスタイルでした。
行程は『多分1人で周ると時間配分わからなくてミスる、そして運転/乗り継ぎがしち面倒』という部分を解消してくれる丁度いい塩梅でした。同行するスタッフさんの手際もよく、ダラダラしがちなバスツアーの進行がとてもスムーズでした。注意点としてはやはりツアーの後に時間縛りのある予定を入れないことですね、夕方の沖縄渋滞エグいですし普通に事故ってる...
ということで一人旅で検討している皆様、とてもおすすめでございます！

I was very satisfied that all the places I wanted to visit were included. It was a plan that would have been impossible to organize on my own; truly a professional from the area.

行って見たかった場所がすべてそろっていて大満足でした。個人で計画は無理なプランさすが現地のプロです。

This time, we were the only Japanese among all the participants, who were mostly from overseas. However, the tour guide was very considerate and kept us entertained throughout. The sightseeing content was great, and although it was very cold that day, we were fortunate with the weather, which was really nice. It's rare!

At the zoo, I was really moved to see the wolves, which I had wanted to see. The big cats were also very entertaining and engaging. The Shirahige Falls was a breathtaking sight that can only be seen in winter, and I think anyone going to Hokkaido should definitely see it. Lastly, the tour guide loved food and recommended some delicious restaurants, so we were able to enjoy a wonderful dinner. I plan to go a few more times this year, and I would love to go again then.

今回のアクティビティは海外の方ばかりで、日本人は私たちだけでした。しかし、添乗員の方が気を遣ってくれ、終始楽しませてくれました。観光内容はこの日はとても寒かったのですが、天候には恵まれ、とても良い天気でした。珍しいそうです！
動物園では狼がとても見たかったので感動でした。他、猛獣もサービス精神旺盛で楽しませてくれました。白ひげの滝は冬だからこそ見られる光景で感動でした。北海道に行く方は必ず見た方が良いと思います。最後に添乗員の方が食べることがとても好きで、美味しいお店を教えてくれたので、ディナーも楽しく頂くことができました。今年もあと何回か行く予定なので、その時はまた、行きたいと思います。

My husband is 55 and I am 49. We participated in a tour with Beltora for the first time, hoping to create a memory from our trip to Kyushu. Before signing up, I read some reviews and saw that many participants were from abroad, which made me worry about whether we would be okay joining. However, our Chinese guide was kind and made an effort to speak in Japanese, which made our experience very enjoyable. (Most of the tour was in Chinese, with occasional English and Japanese.)

Out of 37 participants, there were only 4 Japanese people, and several others joined alone. Thanks to visiting several top power spots in Kumamoto and Miyazaki, we didn't get caught in the heavy rain during our trip. The omikuji (fortune slip) we received at Dazaifu Tenmangu the next day was a great blessing. I feel like things are gradually improving for us.

We were able to relax surrounded by the great nature of Aso and Takachiho Gorge. Depending on the destination, there are well-maintained but quite steep mountain paths to climb. It was still a bit early for cherry blossoms, but the rapeseed flowers along the way were beautifully in bloom. I would like to sign up again if I find another good course.

It was mostly a bus tour, so we were able to depart and arrive on time, and I enjoyed it without any issues. However, the dryness on the bus was severe, and my throat started to hurt. I was wearing a mask, but it was still quite dry, so I wished there was a way to improve that.

ほぼバスだけのツアーだったので、時間通りに発着できたし、問題なく楽しめました。
バスの乾燥がひどく、喉が痛くなりました。マスクをしていましたが、それでも結構な乾燥だったので、どうにかなればなーと思いました。

You can efficiently explore Mishima in one day, and there are plenty of highlights to see. I recommend it for those visiting Yaeyama for the first time.

The boat from Ishigaki to Iriomote can be quite rocky for a while after departure, so be cautious. Now, it feels more like a roller coaster ride, which is amusing.

Yufu Island feels like a paradise of tropical plants and butterflies. The lunch was also delicious.

If I come to Taketomi Island again, I think I will rent a bicycle.

１日で三島を効率よく回ることができ、しかも見どころ沢山。初めて八重山に行く方にオススメです。
石垣から西表に向かう船は、出発からしばらく凄く揺れるのでご注意。今となっては、ジェットコースター感覚でご愛敬という感じ。
由布島は熱帯植物と蝶々の楽園という感じ。お昼ご飯もおいしかった。
竹富島は、今度来ることがあればレンタサイクルを借りようと思う。

This tour included lunch and allowed for a three-hour stay in Shirakawa-go. Given the size of Shirakawa-go, a three-hour visit was just right, and if you don't have enough time to see everything, returning in a different season is also a good option (I actually had the same tour in the summer before).

このツアーは昼食付で白川郷に３時間いられるツアーだった。白川郷の広さからして3時間滞在はちょうどよかったし、もし見るのに時間が足りなければ違う季節でまた再訪するというのも一つの手である(実際に以前夏に同じツアーでお世話になったため。)

The way the tour guide, Mr. Kin, spoke and his recommended foods were great. I learned about ice cream and hamburgers for the first time. Thanks to him, I tried everything. The optional steak dinner was also fantastic.

金さんと言う添乗員さんの話し方とおすすめの食べ物が良かった。初めて知ったアイスクリームやハンバーガーとか｡おかげですべて食べました。オプションのステーキディナーも最高でした。

I participated in this trip because I wanted to see the islands of the Yaeyama Islands during my first visit to Ishigaki Island.

It was great to efficiently tour Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island in one day.

The lunch on Yufu Island was delicious, featuring a variety of Okinawan dishes. It was also fun to leisurely cross while listening to the sanshin and songs on the water buffalo cart.

On Taketomi Island, I chose the free walk plan, but I took a shuttle from the port to the village to tour the area by water buffalo cart, which was relaxing. After that, we went to see the ocean, so I missed the 4 PM boat and took the 5 PM boat instead. I was able to enjoy a lot of sightseeing, which was very nice.

初めての石垣島旅行で、八重山諸島の島を見てみたくて参加しました。

西表島、由布島、竹富島を効率よく1日で観光出来て良かったです。

由布島でのランチも沖縄のお料理盛りだくさんで美味しかったです。
水牛車で、三線と歌を聴きながらのんびり渡るのも面白かったです。

竹富島ではフリーウォークプランを選びましたが、港で集落を水牛車で周る観光の送迎車で集落へ行き、ゆっくり水牛車で周りました。
その後、海も見に行ったので、16時の船には間に合わず17時の船に乗りました。
たっぷり観光出来てとても良かったです。
