All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I wanted to visit ANA's training facility for their work, and I made a reservation, but I was unable to visit due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I'm so glad that I finally got a reservation for November 8th this year! The training facility was off-limits for photography, but I was able to see facilities like the flight simulator and water landing training that I had only seen on TV, which was great! The staff at ANA provided kind and thorough explanations, which was also wonderful! After the tour, I purchased several original goods displayed at the entrance, and I recommend all of them!

ANAのお仕事の訓練施設を一度見学したくて予約をしましたが、コロナ渦で見学も出来ず困っていましたがやっと今年の11月8日に予約が取れて良かったです!!訓練施設は撮影禁止でしたが、フライトシュミレーターや着水訓練施設などテレビでしか見られなかった施設が見る事が出来て良かったです!!ANAの案内スタッフも親切丁寧な説明で良かったです!!見学を終えて入口に展示されていたオリジナルグッズも何点か購入しましたがどの商品もお勧めです!!

Positive aspects:
The tour guide was bright, fun, and friendly—absolutely the best! According to the guide, they were the oldest among the guides. There were elderly participants on the tour, but the guide was considerate enough to ensure that their slower pace didn’t create any pressure (I also wasn't confident in my stamina, so it was actually a perfect pace for me). During lunchtime, they made hot miso soup, which warmed both my heart and body. Thanks to the enjoyable conversations, even strangers among the participants became friendly, and despite the challenging journey, everyone was able to complete the Jomon Sugi tour safely and happily. Thank you very much.

Negative aspects:
I had my own hiking gear, but anticipating it would get dirty from the rain, I joined a tour that included rentals (backpack, shoes, raincoat). Therefore, upon arriving at Yakushima Airport, I was told there would be someone with a whiteboard, but there was no one there. When I looked around, I found a whiteboard with my name propped up at the exit. I waited there for 15 minutes. Finally, the person in charge arrived, saying they were "guiding another person." Since I had provided my phone number, I would have appreciated a call if no one was there. Additionally, there was a fitting afterward, but I was told to wear the socks I would use on the hiking day to try on the shoes, which meant I had to take them out of my suitcase unexpectedly. I had to open my suitcase outside (at the airport exit) to put them on before fitting the shoes. I mentioned this to the staff, but if socks were necessary, I would have liked to have been informed during the phone call three days prior so I could pack them in advance.

Overall, there was a significant gap between the quality of the tour on the day and the level of service for the airport pickup and fitting.

よかった点:
ツアーガイドさんが明るく楽しくフレンドリー、とにかく最高でした！ガイドさん曰く、一番年長のガイドとのこと。ツアー内にご年配のかたがいましたが、ご本人たちの歩みがゆっくりであってもプレッシャーにならないようなご配慮をされるかたでした（私も体力に自信がなかったので、かえってちょうどいいペースでした）。ランチタイムには熱々の味噌汁を作ってくださり、心も体も温まりました。楽しいトークで見知らぬ参加者同士も仲良くなり、辛い道中も和気あいあい、楽しく無事に全員が縄文杉ツアーを終えることができました。ありがとうございました。

よくなかった点:
登山道具を持っていましたが、雨で汚れることを想定し、現地でレンタル（リュック、靴、レインコート）付きツアーに参加しました。そのため、屋久島空港到着時、『ホワイトボードをもった会社のかたがいる』と聞いていましたが、実際はおらず、周囲を探すと、私の名前が書かれたホワイトボードが出口に立てかけてありました。その場で待つこと15分。やっと担当者がやってきましたが、『もう一人のかたを案内していた』とのこと。携帯電話番号を渡していたので、もし誰もいないのであれば、電話一本欲しかったです。また、その後、フィッティングがあったのですが、登山当日に履く靴下を履いて靴を合わせるように言われ、まさかのスーツケースから取り出しとなりました。スーツケースを屋外（空港の出口）で開けさせられ、履いてから靴のサイズ合わせがありました。担当者のかたにも伝えましたが、もし靴下が必要であれば、3日前の電話時、事前に持ち込み荷物に入れておくことができたので、教えて欲しかったです。

よくもわるくも、当日のツアーのクオリティと、空港の出迎え&フィッティングのレベルの落差が大きかったです。

I had been refraining from traveling since the pandemic, but I decided to start again this year. For now, I thought I would stick to domestic travel, aiming for the autumn leaves in Shirakawa-go, which I've always wanted to see. I wanted to avoid crowds, so I planned my visit on a weekday.

Since I'm coming from Sapporo, I was unsure whether to depart from Nagoya or Kanazawa, but choosing Kanazawa turned out to be the right decision. It had been a long time since my last visit, and I was surprised at how modern it has become. I really enjoyed walking around.

As for the tour to Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, the guide was absolutely wonderful, and I learned a lot. There were also foreign participants, so the explanations were provided in both Japanese and fluent English. It was a great opportunity for me to learn how to convey information in English as well (laughs).

It rained a bit, but the autumn leaves were stunning, and there was plenty of time for free exploration, which made the experience truly enjoyable.

Thank you very much. I highly recommend this tour.

コロナ下になってから旅行を控えていましたが、今年から再開。今のところ国内かなと思い、念願の白川郷の紅葉を狙っていました。人込みを避けたいので平日に。
札幌からですから、名古屋発にしようか金沢発にしようかと迷い、金沢にして正解。昔一度行ったきりですが、随分モダンに変わったのですね。散歩しても楽しかったです。
肝心の白川郷・五箇山行きのツアーですが、ガイドさんがとても素晴らしく、大変勉強になりました。外国の方も参加されていたので、日本語・流暢な英語で説明してくださいました。これを英語ではこう伝えるのだなと英語の勉強にもなりました（笑）。
ちょっと雨は降りましたが、紅葉が素晴らしく、且つ自由散策の時間がたっぷりとられていて、本当に堪能できました。
ありがとうございました。
お勧めのツアーです。

I contacted them in advance to ask how the seating would be arranged since my family tends to get motion sickness. When I reached out, I was told that the seats were not assigned and that we would board in order. I thought it couldn't be helped and hoped there would be some available seats, but on the day of the trip, they had assigned seats and placed us in the very front.

The bus guide was very cute and young. She was also a great singer and seemed to be doing her best to entertain everyone, moving around the narrow bus with enthusiasm.

The tour was said to not include lunch, but they provided delicious sandwiches, which we ate on Kouri Island. It was a bit hectic, but I'm glad I participated.

家族が酔いやすいため、事前に席はどうやって決めるのか連絡しました。連絡した時、座席は指定ではなく、順番に乗ってねと回答が来ました。　それなら仕方がない空いてたらいいなぁと思っていたら、なんと当日は座席指定になっていて一番前にしてくれていました。
バスガイドさんはとても可愛らしくて若い方でした。歌も上手でしたし、狭い車内でパタパタ動き回っていて、一生懸命みんなを楽しませようてしているように感じました。
ツアーは、ランチなしとのことでしたが、美味しいサンドイッチを配ってくれて、古宇利島で食べました。ちょっと目まぐるしかったけど参加して良かったです

I participated in a one-day trip from Sapporo to Noboribetsu and Lake Toya.

At the beginning of November, especially, Asahiyama Zoo was closed, and there were limited tourist spots available. I was scared to use a rental car because I didn't know the road conditions, and moving around on my own would have been tough, so I opted for a bus tour, and I was very satisfied!

The weather was nice, and the infection control measures were thorough. All the participants listened carefully, and everyone adhered to the meeting times, which was great.

The tour guide was a veteran who provided just the right amount of recommendations for ramen and souvenirs, and shared various stories like a bus guide, which I could use for the subsequent sightseeing!

All the tourist spots were wonderful! The time allocated at each location was more than satisfactory for me, and the tour guide was always there to follow up in case anything happened, so I felt secure while exploring. On the way back, I expressed my preferences, and I was able to change my drop-off point to somewhere I liked.

On the way back, a deer suddenly jumped out and almost collided with the bus, but the bus driver handled it very carefully and skillfully, so although it was surprising, everything was fine!

My friend who joined me also said it was great to visit so many places on the bus tour!

I would like to use this service again next time.

札幌発登別洞爺湖1日満喫日帰りツアー に
参加しました。

11月の頭は特にですが旭山動物園がお休みしていたり観光名所に行けるところが限られており、
道路状況もわからないので怖くてレンタカーは使えず
自力で移動は辛いのでバスツアーにしましたが
大満足でした！

天気もよく、感染対策もしっかりしており
ツアー参加者もみなさんしっかり話をきいて
集合時間も守られていてよかったです。

添乗員の方もベテランの方で本当に丁度いい
案内(ラーメンやお土産）のオススメを教えてくださり
バスガイドさん並みに色々お話もしてくれて
その後の観光にも活用できました！

観光名所はどこも素敵な場所ばかりでした！
各場所の時間の確保も私には満足すぎるくらい
確保されており何か起きてもしっかり添乗員さんが
フォローされてたので安心して巡れました。
帰りも希望は出しましたが途中で変更して
好きな所で降りれました。

また帰り道に鹿が飛び出してきて
バスと追突しそうになりましたが
バスの運転手の方が本当に慎重に丁寧に対応し
運転していたのでビックリしましたが大丈夫でした！

一緒に参加した友人もバスツアーでこんなに沢山回れてよかったね！と喜んでいました。

また次回も利用する際は活用したいです。

My friends warned me that if I wasn't confident in my physical stamina, I should consider an overnight stay in the mountains instead of a day trip. Feeling a bit nervous, I decided to challenge myself with the day trip.

Once we started, I was overtaken by those who came later, and since I was in a group with women who took longer photo breaks, we progressed at a leisurely pace overall. In the end, I wasn't out of breath and could walk while chatting at a comfortable speed.

Everyone in the group was able to take photos at each spot (there was no need for only those in the front to take pictures while those in the back had to stop before the spot), making photo time a nice break.

Aside from the compatibility with the guide, the group's dynamics also matter. With a larger group, explanations while walking are hardly audible to those in the back, so I think it would be better to request a dedicated guide if possible. However, walking with people I met for the first time also allowed us to share a sense of accomplishment, which I think is a great aspect of travel encounters.

友人からは、体力に自信がなければ、日帰りではなく山中泊も検討すべきと脅され緊張しつつも日帰りにチャレンジささました。
スタートすると後から来る方に追い抜かされ、写真タイムが長めの女性たちと同じグループだったこともあり、全体的にゆっくりと進みました。
結果的には息が上がって喋れないという事はなく、会話しながら歩けるくらいの程よいスピードでした。
各スポットもグループ全員が写真を撮ることができ（前の方だけ撮って、後ろの人はスポット手前で撮らないと行けないなどなく）、写真タイムが程よい休憩になりました。
ガイドさんとの相性とは別に、グループの相性もあること、人数が多いと、歩きながらの説明は後列にはほぼ聞こえないことから、出来れば専属ガイドをお願いした方がよいかと思います。
ただ、初めましての方と一緒に歩くのも、達成感を共有できて、旅の出会いとしてよいとも思います。

I appreciated the thoughtful attention of the guide from the morning gathering! His calm demeanor and reassuring voice made for an enjoyable time. Of course, the mountain scenery in this season and the favorable weather also contributed, and I would like to challenge myself again on a trip with this guide.

朝の集合時から、ガイド氏の気配りの行き届いた対応に感謝！　
落ち着いた物腰、安心感を与えてくれる発声で楽しい時間でした。　
無論、この季節の山景色、好転に恵まれた天気もあり、再度このガイド氏の添乗旅行なら挑戦してみたい。

The autumn leaves matched beautifully with the gassho-zukuri buildings, and it was very lovely. Additionally, the tour guide was very accommodating, and the photos taken at the recommended spots became cherished memories. Thank you for a wonderful day.

紅葉と合掌造りの建物がマッチングし、とても綺麗でした。また、添乗員の方の対応良く、教えていただいた場所での写真は思い出に残りました。
楽しい1日が過ごすことができ、ありがとうございます。

I think the guide was truly wonderful. Not only did they introduce the tourist spots, but they also gently shared Okinawa's culture, legends, history, and folk songs. It was very educational. If there is another opportunity, I would love to do it again.

ガイドさんは本当に素晴らしいと思います。観光地の紹介だけではなく、沖縄の文化、伝説、歴史、民謡など、優しく紹介してくれました。勉強になりました。まだ、機会がありましたら、まだお願いします。

In the morning it rained, so unfortunately Lake Toya didn't look beautiful, but on the way, it was snowing at the mountain peak, and I was able to see the first snow of the year. I definitely recommend visiting the Bear Ranch. Feeding the talented bears was a lot of fun. They also changed the order of the tour to match the sunset at Lake Shikotsu, and the guide explained everything in a very clear and understandable way. I'm really glad I was able to go during the autumn foliage season. Since the main tourist attractions can be visited in one day, it was much more enjoyable than going by car. I would like to join a tour the next time I visit Hokkaido.

午前中は雨だったので、残念ながら洞爺湖は綺麗には見えませんでしたが、途中の山頂で雪が降っており、今年初の雪を拝むことができました。クマ牧場には是非行って欲しいです。芸達者な熊のエサやりがとても楽しかったです。支笏湖の日没に合わせて巡る順番を変更して下さったり、ガイドさんも丁寧に説明してて、とても分かりやすかったです。紅葉シーズンに行けたのがとても良かったです主要の観光名所が一日でみて回れるので、車で行くよりとても満喫することができました。また北海道を訪れる際は、ツアーで行きたいなと思いました。

The foreign person next to me across the aisle complained to the attendant, saying it was noisy and that they were going crazy, which ruined the end of my trip. As a Japanese person, I was enduring the foreign language, but if it’s going to be like this, I think they should have informed us in advance that there would be foreign passengers on board.

通路挟んで隣の外国の方が、アテンドの女性に
うるさい　気が狂いそうだ　と文句を言い
旅の終わりが台無しになりました
日本人の私が　異国語を我慢して聞いているのに
こんな感じなら
事前に、外国の方も乗車する事を告げるべきじゃないかと思いました

Hotel pickup at 4:30 AM, climbing starts at 6:00 AM.
The first 8 km is a gentle trolley path for transporting timber, taking just over 2 hours. From the Arakawa trailhead at 8:00 AM, we tackled the remaining 3 km with an elevation gain of 400 m, which took about 3 hours. The Forestry Agency has installed stairs on the steep cliffs, making the ascent take just over 3 hours. We arrived just before noon, and it was truly moving.
I thought I could return faster since I was going back the way I came after having an early lunch, but it still took me just under 4 hours to reach the goal.
In the end, I couldn't help but shout, "Goal!"

朝4:30ホテルピックアップ　6時登山開始
最初8kmは木材を運ぶトロッコ道(なだらか)を
2時間強　8時荒川登山口から残り3km 標高差400mのアタック3時間　林野庁が厳しい崖に階段をつけてくれており登り3時間強　昼前到着　感動
早弁食べて来た道を戻るくだりだからもっと早く帰れるかなと思ったが4時間弱かけてゴール。
最後思わず「ゴ〜ル！」と叫びました。

It was great to be able to tour the training facility and feel the work firsthand. I thought it was amazing to see the flight simulator in action. If they could have played some videos during the downtime, it would have been even more exciting. Since it was a special occasion, I wish they could have played "Another Sky" at the entrance—it turned out to be a wonderful day that renewed my longing for the sky.

訓練施設を見学できて仕事が肌感覚で感じられて良かったです。フライトシミュレータが動いていたわのが見れてスゴいなと思いました。訓練がない時は映像を少し流してもらうともっと興奮したかも。折角なのでエントランスでは思い切りアナザスカイを流してもらえればなぁ～空への憧れを新たにした素敵な1日になりました。

I was thinking of taking a day trip to Noboribetsu from Sapporo, and a friend advised me that a day bus tour would be a good option. After searching, I found this bus tour. I was a bit worried about how busy it would be, but I was able to make a reservation just three days in advance, and we participated as a group of four. We were able to enjoy sightseeing at wonderful places without any waste and in a very comfortable way! The female guide was kind, precise, and her stories were enjoyable. It was a perfect and fulfilling day on the day bus tour.

札幌から日帰りで登別方面に行きたいと思っていたところ、知人から日帰りのバス旅行がいいのではとアドバイスをもらい探したところ、
このバス旅行を見つけました。
こんなに忙しくて大丈夫かなと思いましたが、３日前なのに予約できて4人で参加しました。
とても無駄なく楽ちんにあちこち素晴らしいところを観光することができました！
ガイドの女性の方も親切で的確、お話も楽しくてよかったです♡︎ʾʾ
申し分のないよくばり日帰りバス旅行の一日でした。

Because there were only about 10-20% Japanese people on the bus, explanations were mostly in Chinese, with almost no explanations in Japanese. Additionally, the other bus had all Japanese passengers, so there were announcements from the tour guide, but there were none on our bus.

I was looking forward to riding the ropeway, but I was told we were going to the bear ranch, which I didn't want to go to, so I ended up staying at the foot of Showa Shinzan the whole time.

The other bus had explanations about not making it in time for the sunset at Lake Shikotsu due to the season, and they adapted by taking time here, but on my bus, we were told about the sweet potato dumplings at Lake Shikotsu, and we spent 45 minutes there in almost complete darkness and strong winds. Honestly, I felt unsafe and didn't know what to do.

Even though it was said that eating and drinking were not allowed on the bus, after an hour of riding, people were eating rice balls, and during breaks, they were buying and eating snacks. By the end, there were people drinking beer and having snacks. To be honest, I don't think I will participate in this again. However, I think it would be good for those who want to make friends with overseas travelers and have fun.

バスに日本人が1~２割弱だったため、中国語での説明が９割以上、日本語での説明がほぼありませんでした。また、現地でも　もう一台のバスは全員日本人だったためか添乗員さんの案内等ありましたがこちらのバスは全くなく・・
ロープ―ウエイに乗ることを楽しみにしていましたが、クマ牧場へと言われ、行きたくなかったので、昭和新山のふもとにずっといることになりました。
もう一台のバスは季節柄、支笏湖の夕日には間に合わないからとバスの中で説明等があったようで、ここで時間をとってと臨機応変に対応されていましたが、私が乗ったバスは支笏湖のいももちをといわれ、ほぼ真っ暗で強風だった支笏湖で４５分。正直いるところもなく身の危険も感じました。
バスの車内も飲食はだめだといっても乗車１時間後にはおにぎりを食べたり、休憩ごとに何かを買ってきて食べていたり、最後はビールとおつまみを食べている人もいました。　正直私自体は今後参加することはないと思います。海外の方と仲良くなって楽しみたいという方にはいいと思います。

The guide was wonderful, and I was able to create many beautiful memories and take lots of photos. It was my first time climbing with people I had just met, but I will never forget the joy and excitement of climbing together until the end.

There were two restrooms at the trailhead to Jomon Sugi and one more after we started walking. Since there are natural springs along the way, you don't need to carry too much water. By booking the tour, I learned a lot about the cedar trees and Yakushima, and I was glad that I didn't have to worry about the time while walking.

Thank you very much.

ガイドさんが素敵な方で素敵な思い出も写真もたくさん残せました。初めて会う方々と登るのは初めてでしたが最後までみんなで登った楽しさと感動は忘れません。
縄文杉まで登山口に一つ、歩き始めてから二つのトイレがありました。途中湧水もあるのでそんなにたくさんお水は必要ないです。ツアーを申し込むことで杉のことも屋久島のこともたくさん知れましたし時間を気にして歩くこともしなくてよかったのでお願いして良かったです。
ありがとうございました。

I was able to visit famous tourist spots in just one day. However, for someone coming from Tokyo like me, finding the meeting place was quite a struggle. Kyoto Station is huge and the crowds are overwhelming.

First of all, the tour guide's voice was too quiet, and there was no sense of organization. We used trains and buses, but I thought we would be disbanding at Kyoto Station after arriving by bus, but instead, we disbanded at Arashiyama.

As someone who came to Arashiyama for the first time, I felt left behind. Other tourists were walking towards the station, so I followed them, and it took over 20 minutes to get to Kyoto Station. But if I had been alone, I might have had a harder time. Overall, it was good. Kyoto was wonderful.

Since I don't live in Sapporo, the meeting place was a bit hard to find.
It was great to be able to visit all the sightseeing spots listed in the guidebook.
The tour guide through the headphones was easy to hear and understand.
At the Mushroom Kingdom, where we stopped for a break, I enjoyed delicious and inexpensive mushroom soup, and the lunch was also tasty.
At the end of the tour, there were many drop-off locations, and being able to get off the bus near my hotel was very convenient.

I thought the nationwide travel support would also apply to day bus tours, so it was very disappointing not to benefit from it.

札幌市在住ではないので集合場所がわかりにくかった。
ガイドブックに載っている観光名所を一通り巡れてよかった。
ヘッドフォンでのツアーガイドは聞き取りやすく、またわかりやすかった。
途中休憩のために立ち寄ったキノコ王国では美味しく安い
きのこ汁を堪能でき、昼食も美味しかった。

全国旅行支援は日帰りバスツアーも該当と思ったが、
恩恵を得られないのは大変残念だった。

The Jomon Sugi course initially made me quite nervous, but our guide, Tsugimura, was fantastic, and we had a great time throughout! The explanations were excellent, and the pacing, attention to the group, quizzes and games during the course, and even the photo compositions were all perfect. Especially the way we spent time on the long trolley path (with games and quizzes) was skillful, making the difficulty feel much less intense—truly a testament to the guide's abilities. I'm really glad I took this tour!

縄文杉コース、最初はとてもびびってましたが、ガイドの津曲さんがとっても良くて、終始楽しく終えられました！
解説はもちろんですが、ペース配分、メンバーへの気配り、コース中のクイズやゲーム、写真構図まで全てが完璧でした。
特に長いトロッコ道の時間の使い方(ゲームやクイズ)が、上手くて辛さをあまり感じなかったのが流石ガイドという感じでした。
ツアーにして本当によかったです！

It was great to see the mangrove forests and to ride slowly on a water buffalo cart. However, the weather was rainy, and I wore a raincoat while renting a bicycle, but I still got soaked. If the weather had been nice, it would have been truly amazing.

マングローブの原生林が見れたり、水牛の牛車にゆっくり乗れたのは良かったです。ただ天候が雨でレンタサイクルではカッパを着てましたが、それでもびしょ濡れになりました。天候が良ければ本当に最高でした。

I used to exercise during my student days, but recently I've been quite out of shape and worried about my stamina. Thanks to the guide who skillfully adjusted the pace according to the members, I was able to enjoy the activities until the end.

Even so, I still felt tired, and there were many times when I couldn't take in the surrounding scenery. However, the guide would stop at appropriate times to explain the highlights, and their knowledge was impressive and enjoyable.

I was overwhelmed by the atmosphere around Jomon Sugi. I definitely recommend challenging yourself with a guided tour if you have concerns about your stamina. You can rent trekking poles on the island, so it's a good idea to bring one.

I've only done a few mountain climbs for tourism, like Mount Fuji, but for the first time, I felt that climbing could actually be fun. The guide made me want to try climbing different mountains next time.

学生時代は運動していましたが、最近はめっきりで体力に不安がありました。
ガイドさんがメンバーを見てペース配分等をうまく調節して下さったおかげで最後まで楽しく行動することが出来ました。

それでも疲れるは疲れるので、周りの景色を見る余裕のない時が多いのですが、適宜止まって見所の説明をしてくれて、その内容も博識で楽しかったです。

縄文杉の周りは雰囲気に圧倒されました。
体力に不安がある方にはガイド付きで挑戦することをぜひおすすめします。ストックを島内でもレンタルできるので1本持っていくと良いです。

登山は富士山等観光で人生で数回した程度でしたが、初めて登山自体が楽しいかもと感じました。
次は違う山にも登ってみたいと感じさせてくれるガイドさんでした。

I mainly just watched the panel explanations from a glass-enclosed corridor. I couldn't hear any voices or the atmosphere of the training. The sense of realism didn't come through just from the atmosphere of the training. The merchandise was also better at the factory tour, which was disappointing. The initial luggage locker and boarding gate raised my expectations, but the final situation was also lacking in explanation, and the rules regarding camera use were only explained after it had started.

主にパネルの説明に訓練をガラス張りの通路から眺めるだけ。訓練の雰囲気等の声も聞こえず。訓練の雰囲気だけで、臨場感が伝わらなかった。グッズも工場見学の方が品揃えは良くて残念。最初の荷物預けロッカーと搭乗ゲートは良く期待を持たされたが、一番最後のシチュエーションも説明不足でカメラの使用の可否も始まってから説明だった。

This is a day trip tour from Hakata to visit famous tourist spots in Shimonoseki and Nagato. When I participated, the vehicle was a van, and there were four groups totaling eight people. The driver and tour guide was very knowledgeable about each sightseeing spot and provided detailed explanations before we arrived at each location.

The first stop was Karato Market, where we stayed for about 60 minutes for lunch and sightseeing at Akama Shrine. At the market, we could purchase items like sushi, seafood bowls, and shrimp tempura to enjoy at the outdoor seaside terrace, or use the cafeteria on the second floor of the market (which is generally open only on weekends?). Akama Shrine is about a 5 to 10-minute walk from the market.

After that, we visited the Tsunoshima Bridge and Motonosumi Shrine, with breaks at Michi no Eki and a highway parking area on the way back to Hakata. Along the way, thanks to the kindness of our tour guide, we were able to see the sunset over the coast. Thank you very much.

博多から日帰り、下関、長門の有名観光地を一日で巡るツアーです。
参加したときは、車両はワンボックスカー、４組８名でした。
ドライバー兼ツアーガイドさんが、各観光地を精通されていて
それぞれ到着前に詳しい説明を頂けました。
最初の訪問は唐戸市場、滞在は約６０分、昼食と赤間神宮観光となります。
市場では、寿司、海鮮丼、エビフライ等の一品を購入し野外の海沿いテラスで食したり、市場２階の食堂（一般は週末のみ？）を使用できます。
赤間神宮は市場から徒歩で約５~10程度。
その後、角島大橋、元乃隅神社を観光し、道の家、高速パーキングエリアでの休憩ありにて博多への帰路となります。
途中、ツアーガイドのご厚意で、海岸に沈むサンセットを見る事が出来ました。有難う御座います。

I participated alone. I'm not sure if it's always like this, but I had the bus seat to myself, and having lunch alone didn't feel awkward at all; it was really enjoyable! Hokkaido is a place where you can't go far without a car, but thanks to this, I had a great time.

ひとりで参加しました。
毎回そうなのかは定かではないですが、
バス席もひとり使用でランチもひとりでもイヤな感じもなくとても楽しかったです！車がないと遠くには行けない北海道ですが、おかげでとても楽しめました。

The tour conductor was very kind and treated my husband and me, who have little knowledge, with great care. Thanks to them, we had a wonderful time. Our long-awaited sightseeing in Kyoto has become a lifelong memory.

　ツアーコンダクターの方が非常に優しい方で知識もない私たち夫婦に丁寧に接していただきました。お陰様で楽しく過ごせました。念願の京都観光、一生の思い出となりました。

When I got on the bus, I found today's pamphlet already in the seat pocket, so everything was ready to go. The driver had clearly gotten enough sleep and greeted us politely, assuring us of their commitment to safe driving! The guide explained even the emergency stop button for unexpected situations, showing that they prioritized our safety.

The guide also used their own drawings and photos to provide fun and easy-to-understand explanations. I was impressed by their fluent English. For lunch, I felt a bit lacking without dessert, but we were able to explore Shirakawa-go and Gokayama at a leisurely pace. Thank you very much.

バスに乗ると座席の網にはもう今日のパンフレットが入っており、準備万端でした。運転士さんはしっかり睡眠とってきてますがー安全運転に努めます。と丁寧な挨拶❗️ガイドさんはもしもの時の緊急停止ボタンまで説明してくださり私たちの安全を第一に考えてくださっているのがよくわかりました。
ガイドも、自作の絵や写真を駆使して楽しくわかりやすい説明でした。英語もペラペラで凄いなーと思って聞いてました。お昼ご飯はデザートがあればなーなんてちょっぴり物足りなさがありましたがゆっくり白川郷や五箇山を探索させてもらいました。ありがとうございました。

I participated on November 4th. It was a terrible start with heavy rain from the morning, but after that, it was on and off. It seems it had been raining since the beginning of November, so both the sea and the river were muddy, which was very disappointing. The day trip course was good, but it was still quite unfortunate. It was crowded with participants from many tour companies, but we were able to go smoothly without much waiting. A really lucky thing was that for the day trip under the national travel support program, I received a 5,000 yen discount and a 3,000 yen coupon.

11月４日に参加しました。朝から土砂降りでひどいスタートでしたが、それからは降ったりやんだりでした。11月入ってからずっと雨だったらしく、海も川も濁ってとても残念でした。日帰りコースは良かったのですがとても残念でした。沢山のツアー会社の参加者でいっぱいだったのですが、あまり待たずにスムーズにいけました。凄くラッキーなことは、全国旅行支援の日帰り旅行になら一日5000円の割引とクーポンが3000円もらえました。

The weather wasn't great, but I had a good time. I thought it was cheap, especially with the delicious lunch included. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a kind message about being able to use the national travel support. Thank you very much.

天候がいまひとつでしたが、楽しめました。
おいしい昼食も付いて安いと思いました。
丁度全国旅行支援も利用できると思いがけず親切に連絡があり嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。

I noticed when other participants received coupons that my reservation through vertra was more expensive than theirs, and I didn't receive a coupon. My lack of information gathering was the main reason, but I was a bit disappointed.

The tour content was good. It was nice to see various places in the northern part of Okinawa Island, which are difficult to access without a car. The lunch was fresh and delicious.

同じツアーの参加者がクーポンがもらった時に気付きました。vertraからの予約は他の参加者より代金が高いし、クーポンももらえなかった。自分の情報収集不足が一番の原因ですが、ちょっとがっかりでした。

ツアー内容はよっかたです。沖縄本島の北部、車がないと行きにくいところに色々見てよっかたです。ランチも新鮮で美味しいかったです。

The journey to Jomon Sugi was long, but thanks to our guide's frequent explanations, it felt enjoyable and not particularly difficult. By the time we arrived, I had already bonded with the guide and the group members, making the return journey feel quick as well. We took many wonderful photos, so I’m still reliving those happy memories after coming back. At first, I thought I wouldn't get lost and considered going without a guide, but I'm really glad I decided to ask for one!

縄文杉までの道のりは長かったですが、ガイドさんがこまめに説明してくださったおかげで特に苦もなく、楽しく縄文杉まであっという間に感じました。着くころにはガイドさんとグループのメンバーともうちとけてきて、帰りの道のりもあっという間に感じるほどでした。ステキな写真をたくさん撮っていただいたので、帰ってきてからも楽しかった思い出に浸っています。最初は迷わないだろうからガイドさん無しでと考えていましたがお願いして本当に良かったです！
