All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I participated in this tour because it had a lot of sightseeing spots, but I was surprised to find out that it was a mixed group with Chinese-speaking guests. While it is true that the tour is available in Japanese, English, and Chinese, there was no mention of a mixed group. Additionally, there was a bus exclusively for Japanese participants, which felt unfair. If there had been a clear indication of the mixed group, I could have made a more informed decision about whether to join.

今回のツアーは観光地も盛り沢山の旅程なので参加しましたが、中国語のお客さんとの混乗とは知らずに驚きました。確かに日本語英語中国語対応となっていますが、混乗との記載はありませんでした。また日本人だけのバスもあり不公平を感じました。
混乗があるのであれば明記して頂ければ、参加有無を判断出来たのに。

The entire island is a power spot (≧∇≦)

The guide explained why Yakushima is special, and I was able to fully understand that this island is indeed a unique and mystical place!

Once I grasped that, I felt an incredible life force in each tree of the forest, making me realize that my worries are insignificant!

The guide was attentive to everyone’s condition and walked at a comfortable pace, which was very helpful.

To truly understand this island, this forest, and this mystery, I highly recommend doing the mountain climbing with this guide. The experience is completely different!

The guide was very knowledgeable and a reliable presence! Plus, they were kind and it was a lot of fun to talk with them! Although I was traveling alone, I was able to enjoy climbing the mountain with all the participants. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

島全体がパワースポット（≧∇≦）

屋久島がなぜ特別なのか、ガイドさんがしっかり説明してくれて、この島が、特別な神秘の島なんだということがきちんと理解できました！

それが理解できると、この森の木々ひとつひとつに物凄い生命力を感じて、
自分の悩みなんぞちっぽけだぜ！と思わせてくれました。

ガイドさんはみんなの様子を見ながら、無理のないスピードで歩いてくれて助かりました。

この島を、この森を、この神秘を理解するにはまずはこのガイドさんつきの山登りをすることをオススメします。感動が全然違います！

ガイドさんもガイド意識のすごく高い人で頼れる存在でした！
しかも親切で、話していてとても楽しかったです！
ひとり旅でしたが、参加者みんなと楽しく山登りできました。
素敵な思い出をありがとうございます！

I'm really glad I was able to experience crossing to Yufu Island by water buffalo before the super typhoon arrived. It felt like seeing Japan's original scenery, and the person guiding the water buffalo played the sanshin, creating a relaxed atmosphere that truly moved me. Even though it was a tour of three islands, we were able to get around efficiently. I'm happy I could fully enjoy it. The Sakishima Islands are the best!

スーパー台風が来る前に、経験してみたかった水牛で由布島へ渡ることができてとても良かったです。日本の原風景を見た感じで、水牛を操る方が三線を弾きながらゆったりとした時間を演出されて、本当に感動しました。3島巡りといってもツアーなので効率よく周ることができました。満喫できてよかった。先島諸島最高ー！

Despite the heat where the cows were being a bit stubborn, it seemed that the cows' pace matched the island's flow of time, allowing us to relax and enjoy the pleasant breeze. The guide's sanshin music and singing, along with the storytelling pace, created a wonderfully soothing atmosphere. Thank you, cows and guide, for your efforts in the heat!

牛さんが駄々をこねる暑さのなかでしたが、牛さんのペースと島の時間の流れが合っているようでのんびり、ゆったりした中で心地よい風に吹かれました。ガイドさんの三線と歌も、また語りのペースも嫌みのないのんびり感でとても癒されました。牛さん、ガイドさん暑い中ありがとうございました。

The weather was nice, and the water buffalo was very clever, so it was fun to hear various stories. I didn't have much time on Yubu Island, and while I was having lunch, I couldn't explore everything at a leisurely pace, so I wish I had a bit more time.

お天気も良く水牛の頭がよく、いろいろなお話が聞けて楽しかったです
由布島は少し時間がなく、お昼を食べたりしていると全てゆっくりとは回り切れなかったのでもう少し時間が欲しかったなと思います

I finally went trekking to Jomon Sugi. I was planning to go alone, but in the end, I'm glad I joined a tour.

I was able to get to the trailhead from my accommodation without having to change buses, and it was reassuring to have the guide and other participants with me. The guide not only had a wealth of knowledge but also pointed out dangerous steps along the way, which made me feel safe following them. The amount of lunch was too much for me, and I ended up only eating about half, so I thought maybe next time I could just have one.

I was filled with a sense of accomplishment after finally seeing Jomon Sugi. Thank you to the guide!

念願の縄文杉トレッキング行ってきました。
一人で行こうと思っていましたが、結果ツアーにしてよかったです。

バスを乗り換えることなく、宿から登山口まで行かれましたし、ガイドさんや他の参加者の方々がいて心強かったです。
ガイドさんも豊富な知識もさることながら、要所要所で危険な段差なども教えてくださって、安心してついていくことができました。
お弁当の量が私には多くて、結局半分くらいしか食べられなかったので次回は一つにしてもいいかなと思いました。

無事、縄文杉を見ることができて達成感でいっぱいでした。
ガイドさんありがとうございました。

The guide was very kind and it was a lot of fun! ☺ They explained everything in English, Chinese, and Japanese, making it a memorable trip! ♥

ガイドさんがとても親切で楽しかったです☺
英語、中国語、日本語で説明してくださり、思い出に残る旅行♥になりました☺

I have visited Okinawa many times, but I had never been to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I was really looking forward to it this time. I also wanted to visit Kouri Island and Manzamo again after a long time, so it was helpful to be able to tour efficiently. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but it was easy since we were on a bus. The hotel provided shuttle service, so I had plenty of time, which was nice.

沖縄は何度も訪れているのに　美ら海水族館はまだなかったので　今回とても楽しみにしていました。古宇利島と万座毛も久しぶりに行ってみたかったので　効率的に周れるのは助かります。あいにくのお天気でしたが　そういう時でもバスなので楽々。　宿泊ホテルの送迎だったので　時間もゆとりがあって良かったです。

The meeting time was early in the morning, and the schedule was tight, but we were able to fully enjoy Asahiyama Zoo, the Seven Stars Tree, the Blue Pond, and Farm Tomita all in one day. Our multilingual guide provided detailed explanations of the highlights and important points in three languages, making it enjoyable for people from any country. Since the travel distances are extensive, it's a tour that even those who are eager to see a lot can be very satisfied with, as it's not easy to visit these places alone.

集合時間も朝早く、タイトなスケジュールでしたが旭山動物園、セブンスターの木、青い池もファーム富田も１日でフルに楽しめました。
語学堪能なガイドさんがみどころや注意も詳しく３ケ国語で説明して下さるのでどんな国の方でも大いに楽しめます。移動距離が広範囲なので1人ではなかなか行けない場所も欲張りな方も
大満足なツアーです。

The timing control, including appropriate breaks considering the participants' stamina, was excellent. The explanations were detailed, and I had a great time.

参加者の体力を考慮した適時休憩などタイムコントロールがバッチリでした。説明も詳しく話して頂き大変楽しかったです。

I was able to participate in the places I wanted to visit without any stress and with plenty of time to spare. The tour guide and everyone were very kind, which was great. I want to enjoy various courses.

観たい所に、無理無く余裕をもって参加できました。
添乗員さんや、皆さんとても親切で良かったです。
いろんなコースを楽しみたくなりました。

The tour guide's guidance and attentiveness were excellent. The driver was also great. It was a fun trip! The course was good as well.

添乗員さんの案内、気配りが良かったです。
運転手も良かった。
楽しかった旅でした!
コースも良かったです。

The front wheel tire is hitting the fender and making a rubbing sound. The front wheel is unbalanced, making it difficult to steer properly. I think it probably got dented from hitting something.

前輪のタイヤがフェンダーに当たり
擦れて音がする
前輪のバランスが悪く、ハンドル操作がうまくできない
多分何かにぶつかって凹んだんだと思う

It was cloudy in the morning, but it was sunny at the location. The color of the sea was beautiful as well. Since there is quite a bit of walking, I recommend wearing comfortable shoes like sneakers.

The Otaru Canal was also nice.

The guide was friendly and kind.

朝は曇っていましたが、現地では晴れ
海の色もきれいでした。
歩く距離も有りますのでスニーカーなど
歩きやすい靴がおすすめ

小樽運河も良かったです

ガイドさんもフレンドリーで
親切でした

I participated alone. A veteran guide accompanied me. The explanations were thorough, and they took photos along the way, which was great! They also provided something to sit on, which was very helpful! I think having that made a significant difference. It was the best experience! Thank you very much.

1人で参加でした。ベテランのガイドさんがついて下さいました。丁寧な説明と途中写真を撮って頂いたり、ペースも良かったです！
お尻にひく物を持ってきてくださってて、それがとても良かったです！あれがあると無いとではだいぶ違うと思います。
最高の体験ができました！
有難うございました。

The weather was nice, and I was finally able to reach the tip of Cape Kamui, which I had longed to visit. Since I didn't have much time to spare, I thought about making a round trip, but it felt more like I was walking quickly rather than taking my time to enjoy the scenery along the way. Adjusting the time can be tricky, especially if the gate is closed, but I don't think it takes much time to visit Shitamukai Coast, so I wish I could have spent that extra time at Cape Kamui. Other than that, I had plenty of time to explore Otaru, and I was satisfied.

お天気もよく、念願の神威岬の先端に行くことができました。
時間の余裕があまりないので、往復しようと思うと途中の景色をゆっくり見ながら歩くという感じではなく、結構急いで歩く感じです。
門が閉まっている場合などの時間の調整が難しいのでしょうが、島武意海岸はそんなに時間が必要ないと思うので、その分を神威岬に時間をとってもらったらいいのになと思いました。
それ以外は小樽の散策時間もたっぷりあり、満足です。

I really appreciated that we could go to the Churaumi Aquarium on a one-day bus tour without needing a rental car!

The guide had a wealth of knowledge, and it was enjoyable to listen to them.

1日のバスツアーで、レンタカー無しで美ら海水族館までいけるのがとても良かったです！

ガイドさんの知識が豊富で、聞いていて楽しかったです。

The overall experience was great, and the guide was very knowledgeable about the different training exhibits. The value for the price is worth the admission fee, and the exclusive merchandise is nice. An English script of the tour is provided, along with a digital transcription as well.

Since I needed a cane, I opted for a bus tour plan on Taketomi Island. The guide's service was outstanding. They helped us search for star sand, took photos for us, allowed us to visit a home with a shisa holding a fish, and shared stories about childhood life on Taketomi Island, which made me fall in love with the place. Next time, I plan to spend more time leisurely on Taketomi Island.

The guide on Iriomote Island also shared interesting stories during the bus ride, and the mangrove tour guide provided clear explanations, which helped me learn a lot. When crossing between Iriomote Island and Yufu Island on the water buffalo cart, the guide talked about the buffalo's personality and played the sanshin, creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The sanshin song "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" resonated with me as we returned to Iriomote Island.

The lunch we had on Yufu Island, "karasoba," was very delicious, and I bought some sauce and Yaeyama soba to take home. It was a wonderful tour.

杖が必要な私でしたので、竹富島ではバス観光プランにしました。
とてもガイドさんの応対が素晴らしかったです。
星の砂を探してくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたり、魚をくわえたシーサーのご自宅を見学させてくださったり、竹富島の子供の頃の生活などの話を聞かせてくださったりと、竹富島が大好きになりました。
次回は竹富島をゆっくりと過ごしに行きます。
西表島のガイドさんもバス移動の時に面白い話をしてくれたり、マングローブ遊覧のガイドさんもわかりやすい説明で色々な事が知れて良かったです。
水牛車で西表島⇔由布島で渡るときも水牛さんの性格などの話や三線を弾いてくださり心地よくゆったりできました。西表島へ戻る時の三線の曲が「きらきら星」が心に響きました。
由布島でいただいた昼食の「からそば」がとても美味しくて、からそばのタレと八重山そばを購入しました。
素晴らしいツアーでした。

I participated in this tour before COVID, and it had been 6 or 7 years since my last participation. I also went in February during the cold season last time, and this time I joined during the cold year-end and New Year period. We took a water buffalo cart from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island, but there was a strong north wind blowing, and it was very cold. I realized that even when going to places like Ishigaki Island, a down jacket is necessary.

The tour itself was a lot of fun. During the Nakama River cruise, I felt like there were more explanations about the mangroves in the past. Also, last time we were able to touch a large clam on the cruise ship, but that wasn't the case this time.

Although it wasn't available last time, this time we were able to touch the water buffalo on Yufu Island and take commemorative photos. The kids were thrilled.

コロナ前にこのツアーに参加して、6、7年ぶりの参加でした。前回も2月の寒い時期に行きましたが、今回も年末年始の寒い時期に参加しました。西表島から由布島まで水牛車に乗って渡りましたが、強烈な北風が吹いており、とても寒かったです。たとえ石垣島などに行くにしてもダウンジャケットが必要なことを痛感しました。
ツアー自体はとても楽しかったです。仲間川クルーズでは、過去の方がマングローブに関する説明が多かったような気がします。また、前回はクルーズ船の中で大きなシジミを回して触ることができましたが、今回はありませんでした。
前回はなかったことですが、今回は由布島で水牛に触って記念撮影することができました。子供が大喜びしていました。

The water buffalo, moving at its own pace, was so cute. I traveled through the streets that still retain their old-fashioned charm while listening to traditional songs played on the sanshin, and it was very soothing. It was hot, and I couldn't move quickly, so I would have been happier if the free time had been a bit longer to relax.

マイペース運行な水牛さんが可愛くて、
三線の民謡を聴きながら昔ながらの様相が残る街並みを水牛車で旅して癒されました。
暑くてテキパキとは動けなかったので、自由行動の時間がもう少し長くのんびりできたら嬉しかったです。

The tour guide was incredibly kind and very attentive. I would recommend this to anyone looking to enjoy sightseeing in Okinawa, especially families with children! ☺️💖

I felt that the time spent at Nago Pineapple Park was a bit insufficient. It might not be recommended for those who want to take their time, especially if you want to ride the bus at Nago Pineapple Park, as there isn't much time for that here. 😣💦

However, everything else was very enjoyable, so I am very satisfied!

ツアーガイドの方はすごく優しい方で対応も丁寧でした。沖縄に来て観光を楽しめたい方に進めたい!!特に子供連れの家族の皆さんに☺️💖
ナゴパイナップルパークでの時間は少し物足り足りないと感じました。ゆっくりみたい人には進めないかも、特にナゴパイナップルパークのバス(？)に乗りたい方はこちらだと時間が少ないのでオススメしません😣💦
でもその他はとても楽しめたので大満足です!!

When we set out, it had just stopped raining in Sapporo, but by the time we arrived at Cape Kamoi, the blue sky was wide open, and the contrast between the green and blue was simply beautiful.

The path to the tip had some slopes and was quite narrow, making it difficult to pass by others. I had to think about where to stop when encountering oncoming visitors. I believe wearing sneakers was the right choice for this trail. The next day, my glute muscles were sore.

In Otaru, we enjoyed a seafood bowl at a restaurant recommended by our guide, tried the LeTAO cheesecake, and were able to buy some cute souvenirs. We had a fulfilling day while listening to the guide's explanations in English.

出発するころ札幌は雨上がりでしたが、神威岬に着くと青空が広がっておりとにかく緑と青のコントラストが美しかったです。
　先端までは勾配もあり、すれ違うのも大変な細い道でした。対抗者が来ると立ちどまる所を考えて歩きました。
　スニーカーで歩くのが正解の道だと思います。翌日お尻の筋肉が痛くなりました。
　小樽ではガイドさんお勧めのお店で海鮮丼を食べ、ルタオのパイを食べたり可愛いお土産も買えました。
　ガイドさんの英語の説明も聞きながら1充実した1日を過ごせました。

During our cruise stop in Naha, we rented a large taxi for 9 people for 8 hours from 09:00 to 17:00, with 7 passengers. Since each of the 7 had different places they wanted to go, we followed the course outlined below. We started from the port and went to American Village (where 4 people got off) ⇒ picked up 3 people and headed to the Churaumi Aquarium (3 hours there is sufficient) ⇒ returned to American Village where the aquarium group of 3 spent 1 hour ⇒ the American Village group of 4 went to a nearby market to look for things they wanted ⇒ during this time, the taxi returned to American Village to pick up the 3 people ⇒ came back to the market to pick up the remaining people ⇒ and then returned to the port. This route allowed us to fully utilize the 8 hours, visiting multiple locations and fulfilling various wishes. By frequently communicating via LINE among the 7 of us, we could keep track of our current locations, estimated arrival times, and next actions, making it very efficient.

クルーズの那覇停泊中に9人乗り大型タクシーを7人で09：00ｰ17：00まで8時間貸し切り。7人中行きたいところが違うので下記コースを辿りました。港からアメリカンビレッジ（ここで4人降りる）⇒3人を乗せて美ら海水族館へ（現地3時間で十分）⇒アメリカンビレッジに戻り水族館組3人はココで1時間過ごす⇒アメリカンビレッジ組4人は近くの市場へ買いたいものを探しに⇒この間タクシーはアメリカンビレッジに戻って3人をピックアップ⇒市場に戻って来て残りの人をピックアップ⇒港に戻る。このようなコース取りで8時間フルに複数の場所、複数の希望を叶えました。7人で頻繁にライン通信することで、現在居場所、到着予定時刻、次の行動など、つぶさに連絡が取れるので、非常に効率的です。　

I had the opportunity to observe the regular training facility through the glass. The entrance and announcements were reminiscent of an airport, which was exciting. It's open to children from elementary school age and up, so I took my sixth graders as part of their summer homework. Kids around this age and adults will enjoy it, but younger children might get bored. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

普段の訓練施設をガラス越しに見学させていただきました。
エントランスやアナウンスが空港さながらでワクワクしました。
小学生以上OKで、小6の子供達の夏の宿題を兼ねて行きました。
これくらいの年の子どもや大人は楽しいですが、低学年だともしかしたら飽きるかも？ですね。
また機会があれば参加したいです。

I recommend this for those who want to pack a lot of highlights into their time! The female staff member who served as our driver seemed very responsible, and I was able to enjoy a wonderful time with peace of mind.♪

時間内に見所を詰めた欲張りさんにオススメします！運転手を務めてくれた女性スタッフさん、責任感が強そうな方で、安心して素敵な時間を過ごす事ができました♪

I chose a bus tour course. The bus stopped at several locations, and the driver sometimes accompanied us. At the beach with star sand, while I was looking for star sand, the driver found a small piece of star sand and gave it to me, which made me super excited!

私はバス観光コースを選びました。何ヶ所かバスを停めて　ドライバーさんが時々同行してくれたり　星の砂の浜では、星の砂ないかなぁと探してると　小さい星の砂を見つけてくれて　私にくれたので　超感激！でした。

The response and explanation from Guide Tan were better than expected. I was a bit overwhelmed by the number of inbound tourists, but I appreciated being seated next to one of the few Japanese people. Thank you.

ガイドタンさんの対応、説明が予想以上に
良かった。インバウンドの多さには少々辟易
したが、座席隣を数少ない日本人だった配慮に感謝。有難う。

The lively tour guide's stories were enjoyable, making for a very fun tour. With this price, I felt like I got a great deal seeing so many different places, and the duration of each stay was just right! The magnificent views unique to Hokkaido from the bus window were also wonderful. While renting a car is convenient, I truly recommend the bus tour.

お元気な添乗員さんのお話が楽しくて、とても楽しいツアーでした。
この料金で、これだけ色々なところを見ることができて、それぞれの滞在時間もちょうどよくて得した気分でした！
車窓から見る北海道ならではの雄大な眺めもとても素敵でした。
レンタカーも便利ですが、バスツアーは
ほんとにお勧めです。

I arrived at ANA BLUE BASE more than 20 minutes early for my reservation, and the staff kindly informed me that there was availability on an earlier flight (!). I was grateful to be able to board flight ABB002.

I was able to receive detailed explanations and on-site tours of various operations, including passenger handling, cabin crew, cargo handling, ramp handling, maintenance, and flight operations.

It was disappointing that many areas were off-limits for photography, but I was moved to see the escape training from the 787 mock-up for the first time, as well as the full flight simulator training.

If there is an opportunity, I would love for many people to visit and learn more about this, as it would be wonderful for me as an aviation fan.

予約時刻より２０分以上早くANA BLUE BASEに着いたところ、職員の方が予約より1本早い便（！）に空きがあるからどうですか？と案内され、ありがたくABB002便に搭乗させていただきました。
旅客ハンドリング、CA、貨物・ハンドリング、ランプ・ハンドリング、整備士、運航乗務員の各業務ごとに詳しい説明と実地見学が出来ました。
多くの場所が撮影禁止だったのが残念ですが、初めて787モックアップからの脱出訓練の様子やフル・フライシミュレーター訓練なども見ることが出来て、感動しました。
機会があれば多くの方に見学していただき、広く知ってもらえると1人の航空ファンとしても喜ばしいです。
