We participated as a family of 6 adults and 3 children in March 2019. The timing was just right, and there were no issues at all. The weather was also nice.

大人6人子供3人の家族で参加しました。2019年3月に参加しました。
時間などもちょうどよく、問題は一つもありません。
天気もよかったです。

I am satisfied both in terms of time and content.
I think the price is reasonable as well.
However, I wished the stay time at each destination could be a bit longer.
In that case, it would be better if the meeting time for the tour started a little earlier.

時間的にも内容的にも満足です。
価格的にも適正だと思います。
ただ訪問先の滞在時間が　それぞれもう少し長くあればいいなと思いました。
その分　ツアーの始まりの集合時間がもう少し早くもいいと思います。

The aquarium was a wonderful experience it’s just amazing to see whale sharks in captivity I hope they do catch and release like what I was told The aquarium by far was the best aquarium I have been to little bit of a long bus ride but the scenery along way spray nice all in all it was worth the adventure.

Departing from Namba.
The guide provided information carefully in both Japanese and English.
I was traveling alone, but since I wasn't seated with others, I appreciated that consideration and enjoyed the experience. However, the inefficiency and unfriendliness of the reception staff stood out. I would like to see improvements, such as having clearly organized reception desks by type and visual aids for bus number announcements. This is especially important since there were many foreign tourists.

難波発です。
ガイドさんが丁寧に日本語と英語に分けて案内していていただきました。
１人旅でしたが、相席ではなかったので、その点も配慮されていたので、楽しめました。しかし、受付スタッフの手際の悪さや不親切さが目立ちました。種類別に、わかりやすく受付デスクを用意したり、バスの号車案内も視覚化するなどして工夫していただきたい。外国人観光客も大勢いたので尚更。

The guidance from our bus guide, Mr. Kuroda, was both polite and interesting, and the duration of each stop was just right, making for a very good experience.

バスガイドの黒田さんの案内も丁寧で面白く、それぞれの滞在時間も丁度良く、とても良い経験ができました。

My partner and I did the both red and blue lines and we enjoyed a lot , nevertheless we missed to visit some of other Southern neibourghoods.
Explications are very complete and fine although sometimes are not at the accurate time, but overall it was an amazing experience and the attending people was lovely so I recommend to everyone wants to visit Tokyo in a touristic bus! ;-)

Even on a half-day tour, it was just the right amount of sightseeing.
The glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay was wonderful.
The beautiful sea and coral reefs were stunning.
I was thrilled to see sea turtles.
The bus guide's sanshin performance was also fantastic.

半日コースでも、ちょうどいい感じで観光できました。
川平湾でのグラスボート。
綺麗な海にサンゴ礁。
海ガメにも会えて感激でした。
バスガイドさんの三線も最高でした。

The tour covered several highlights of Ishigaki Island in about five hours. Fortunately, we were blessed with good weather, allowing for great sightseeing. The sea was very beautiful. We took a glass-bottom boat with the operator, and since there was no wind, the waves were minimal, making it easy to enjoy the fish and coral. However, I couldn't take good photos because the reflections on the glass bottom made it difficult. It's best to just see it in person.

I thought the flowers were susuki (Japanese pampas grass), but the guide told us they were sugarcane flowers. Additionally, we learned some local dialects of Ishigaki Island, which made the sightseeing even more enjoyable.

石垣島の見どころを何か所か、5時間ほどで回るツアーでした。
幸い天気に恵まれて、良い観光が出来ました。
海はとても綺麗でした。OPのグラスボートに乗りましたが、風もなかったので、波も少なく綺麗に、魚や珊瑚を堪能できました。写真は底のガラスに反射した影が映るので、うまく撮影できませんでした。見るに限ります。
　ススキの花が咲いていると思いましたが、ガイドさんが「サトウキビの花だ」と教えてくださいました。その外にも石垣島の方言も教えて頂き、楽しく観光ができました。

We were able to efficiently visit various places, mainly the Churaumi Aquarium. I feel like we could make better use of our time compared to using a rental car. With the steak dinner plan, we got off the bus and enjoyed steak at Sam's Steakhouse. It was fun to watch the cooking performance right in front of us.

美ら海水族館メインに、効率よくいろいろ行けました。
レンタカーを使うより時間が有効に使える気がします。ステーキディナープランで、バスを降りてからステーキハウスサムズでステーキをいただきました。目の前で調理してくれパフォーマンスもあって楽しかったです。

The day I participated, the winds were strong and the waves were high, so there were cancellations to places like Iriomote Island, but Taketomi Island was operating. The water buffalo cart experience, with the driver's talk and the island songs played on the sanshin, allowed us to move slowly over a short distance, making it very soothing and giving us a real sense of the island.

I returned to Ishigaki on the 5 PM ferry, and time flew by. The rental bicycle shop is located alongside the water buffalo cart reception, so it's easy to enjoy cycling after the buffalo cart experience. The staff at the rental bicycle shop might seem a bit particular about their language, but they are nice once you start talking to them. This kind of distance feels unique to the island, and it even gave me a sense of being liberated from the rigidity of everyday life.

While I ended up talking about Taketomi Island, my schedule was stress-free. If I had to say anything, it's that time passes quickly, so next time I want to stay overnight and be healed by Taketomi Island.

参加日は風が強く波が高かったので、西表島などは欠航でしたが、竹富島は運航していました。
水牛車は運転手さんのトーク、三線を使った島唄、短い距離をゆーっくりと進むので島を感じることができ、非常に癒されます。
午後発の17時便で石垣に戻りましたが、あっという間に時間が過ぎました。レンタサイクルのお店は水牛車の受付と併設しているので水牛車体験後もスムーズにサイクリングを楽しめます。レンタサイクルの店員さんは、言葉づかいが気になる人は気になりそうですが、話すといい人です。これくらいの距離感も島ならではかと、普段のガチガチの生活から解放されるような感じさえ受けました。
竹富島の話になってしまいましたが、スケジュールはストレスなく過ごせました。強いて言うならあっという間に時間が過ぎるので、今度は泊まりで来て竹富島に癒されたいです。

The guide was kind. I could easily recognize them because they were wearing yellow clothing. The tourist spots were less crowded than I expected, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing thoroughly.

ガイドの方は親切でした。黄色の服を着ていたので直ぐに分かりました。
観光地は思ったよりも空いていて、たっぷりと観光が出来ました。

My first time in Yakushima.
A few minutes after arriving, I boarded the shuttle bus and joined the group participating in the morning tour.
Unfortunately, it was raining, but that was expected, and I was captivated by the scenery from the bus window.
The Yakusugi Land was a 30-minute course, and the guide's stories were fascinating; it went by in no time.
And then there was the Jomon Sugi. Its size was overwhelming and had a dignified presence. It's amazing that you can park the car right next to it.
Due to my flight schedule, I only had half a day this time, but next time I definitely want to do a full-day course and explore all around Yakushima. Thank you for your hospitality.

初めての屋久島。
到着して数分後に迎えのバスに乗り、午前中から参加の皆さまに加わり、ツアースタートです。
残念ながら雨でしたが、それも想定内で、車窓からの景色にくぎづけ。
ヤクスギランドは30分コースで、ガイドさんの話が興味深く、あっと言う間でした。
そして紀元杉。圧倒される大きさで、凛々しい感じ。間近に車を横付けできるのはすごいですね。
飛行機の関係で今回は半日でしたが、次回はぜひ一日コースで、屋久島一周したいと思います。お世話になりました。

I wasn't confident in driving... but I wanted to go to the northern part! So I signed up for this tour. As a result, I truly feel that choosing this tour was a great decision, and I made wonderful memories.

I participated alone, but while listening to Okinawan music and the guide's announcements on the bus, we headed to our destination. Once there, I was able to explore freely within the designated time and interact with other participants at a comfortable distance.

The time allocation at each sightseeing spot and the travel time felt just right. I am grateful to the driver who safely took us around and to the guide who entertained us with a lovely smile and thoughtful attention.

I would like to use this service again when I come back to Okinawa. Thank you very much.

運転に自信がない…でも北部に行きたい！と思い こちらを申し込みました。
結果、このツアーを選んで良かったと心から思える素敵な思い出が出来ました。
ひとり参加でしたが、車内では沖縄の音楽やガイドアナウンスを聴きながら目的地まで向かい、現地では決められた時間内で自由に散策をし、程よい距離感で他の参加者の方達とも関わりが持てました。
各観光地の時間配分、乗車時間等のプランもちょうど良く感じました。
安全運転で各地を巡ってくれた運転手さん、素敵な笑顔と丁寧な気配りで楽しませてくださったガイドさんに感謝しています。
また沖縄に来る際には利用させて頂きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

The tour included people from Australia and Belgium, so we were guided in both Japanese and English, which allowed us to hear the explanations twice, making it very good.

Although there wasn't much snow this year, we enjoyed the World Heritage sites of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, and the experience culminated in a fun rice cracker grilling activity.

We also enjoyed a delicious traditional Japanese meal in Shirakawa-go for lunch.

ツアーにはオーストラリア、ベルギーの人がいたため、日本語と英語でガイドしてもらったので説明も2度聞けとても良かったです。

ツアーも今年はなかなか雪が無かったようですが、雪の白川郷、五箇山と世界遺産を楽しめ最後にはお煎餅の焼き体験まで充実した内容でした。

お昼も白川郷の和食を堪能出来て美味しかったです。

The tour was very convenient, organized, gave ample time for each stop and the guide was very accommodating. The food was also great! Will definitely recommend this.

This time, I booked a round-trip ferry from Ishigaki Island's ferry terminal to Taketomi Island, along with a glass-bottom boat tour, a bus tour around the island, and a water buffalo tour on Taketomi Island. The course was well organized, so it was great.

今回、竹富島観光するのに、石垣島離島ターミナルから竹富島までの往復フェリーと竹富島でのグラスボードと島内バス観光と水牛観光を予約しました。コースも段取りよく回れたので良かったです。

The time allocation for the course and the options were great. I would like to use it again when I come back. Thank you very much.

コースの時間配分、選択といいよかったです。また来たときは利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました。

I’m from Thailand and took this tour with my friend on February 3rd, my chose this tour because we didn’t have a car and saw this tour online with good reviews. On the day we took the tour it started right on time with friendly staff and comfortable ride on the bus. Everything on the schedule was accurate, only negative part was guide not able to speak English but was very helpful to make us comfortable. We love the experience will definitely come back again with friends and family to take this tour again.

The content of the visits and the timing were ideal. This tour was very well organized and the comments and explanations of Yoko made it even more interesting.

It was so much fun! I'm glad I chose this tour. The service, the course, and the content were all great. Of course, you can easily visit Taketomi Island on your own, but the tour is definitely more efficient. I highly recommend it!

超楽しかった！
このツアーにしてよかったと思う。
対応もコースも内容も。
勿論、個人でも気軽に竹富島に行けるが、やはりツアーのほうが効率よく回ることができますね〜
オススメする！

We participated as a family of three (including a one-year-old child). I think it's easy to join since they pick you up from various hotels. The beach at Kouri Island was incredibly beautiful and left me in awe. However, there is limited free time, so we only had enough time to take some photos at the beach and look at a few souvenirs. Next time, I would like to visit Heart Rock and the tower as well.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, we had plenty of time to explore at a leisurely pace, even with a child, and we were able to see the dolphin show. We also enjoyed visiting various major spots. Thank you!

家族3人（1歳の子供含む）で参加しました。いろんなホテルにお迎えに来てくれるので、参加しやすいと思います。古宇利島のビーチがとにかくキレイで感動しました。ただ自由時間が少ないのでビーチで写真を撮って、お土産を少し見るくらいしか時間がありません。次回はハートロックやタワーの方も行ってみたいです。
美ら海水族館は時間がたっぷりあるので、子連れでもゆっくり回れましたし、イルカのショーも見る事が出来ました。その他も主要スポットを色々回れて満喫出来ました。ありがとうございました！

I tried the glass-bottom boat recommended by the guide, and it was incredibly beautiful—what a surprise! Unfortunately, the weather was a bit cloudy, but the beauty of the underwater scenery was truly amazing. There was also a performance of the sanshin on the bus, making for a wonderful experience in Ishigaki Island!

ガイドさんオススメのグラスボード乗ってみたら、すんごくキレイでビックリ！
あいにくお天気は薄曇りでしたが、海中の美しさはとても素晴らしいかったです。
バスの中では三線の演奏もあり石垣島を満喫‼︎

We had a nice,relax city tour with this tour agent. Tour guide was very attentive and well organized. We had buffet lunch and we liked it very much. We will highly recommending people to join this tour.

The hotel provided a shuttle service, which was very convenient! The main purpose of my visit was to ride a water buffalo from Iriomote Island to Yufu Island. The guide sang Okinawan songs on the sanshin, making it a dreamy escape from reality! On the last stop at Taketomi Island, we were also guided around the island by water buffalo, and I was very satisfied with the double water buffalo experience.

For the return boat, I could choose between the 4 PM and 5 PM departures on the spot, so after getting off the water buffalo, we decided to go to Kaiji Beach, which was also convenient and relaxed! If I could have applied for a rental bicycle right there, I might have been able to explore a bit more.

It was a very meaningful day!

ホテルへ送迎があり、とても楽チンでしたー！
訪問のメインの目的、水牛に乗って西表島から由布島まで行きました。ガイドさんは三線で沖縄の唄を歌ってくれて現実を離れうっとり‼️最後の竹富島でも水牛で島内を案内してくれてダブル水牛に大満足でした。
帰りの船は4時と5時の便を、その場で決められるので水牛下りてからカイジ浜まで行くことになったのでここも焦らず便利でした！レンタサイクルもその場で申し込めたらもう少し足を伸ばせたかな。
とっても有意義な1日でした！

I wasn't confident in driving, so I signed up for the tour. It was great to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots. I wished for a bit more time at each location, but I understand that with so many places to visit, it's unavoidable. I had a lot of fun.

車の運転に自信がなかったのでツアーを申し込みました。
効率よく観光地を回れたのが良かったです。
それぞれの場所で滞在時間がもう少し欲しいと思いましたが、
これだけの場所を回るのだから仕方がないと納得です。
とっても楽しかったです。

I found that the round-trip ferry fare and the water buffalo cart tour to Taketomi Island can be quite expensive. However, this plan included those costs, allowing us to enjoy it at a reasonable price. We took the 1 PM ferry, and although we couldn't choose a morning option, Taketomi Island is relatively small, so a half-day tour was sufficient.

竹富島へは、往復の乗船料金や水牛車観光などを調べていると結構高くつくことが分かりました。
しかしながら、こちらのプランではそれらが含まれ、安価に楽しめました。
乗船は午後１時のプランで、午前は選択できなかったものの、竹富島は比較的狭い島で、半日観光で十分でした。

I used the service on the afternoon of my arrival day. I took a flight that arrived at Ishigaki Airport at 12:30, and after quickly moving to the city and dropping off my luggage at the hotel, there wasn't much time before the meeting time, but I was glad I made it in time. This was my second time on Ishigaki Island, but my first visit was decades ago, and I remember using the regular sightseeing bus then as well. I recall visiting the Tomb of the Chinese and Kabira Bay, but the Tomb of the Chinese was under restoration during my first visit, so it was quite beautiful this time. It was also my first time riding a glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay. On the glass-bottom boat, I saw beautiful seas, coral reefs, colorful fish, and even sea turtles. Additionally, the shop we stopped by for tea time had a nice atmosphere, and I don't remember exploring the primeval forest before, so that was a new experience for me. I had a great time.

到着日の午後に利用しました。12時半に石垣空港に着く飛行機ですぐに市内に移動し、ホテルに荷物を預けたら集合時間まであまり時間がありませんでしたが、間に合ってよかったです。石垣島は2回目なのですが、1回目は何十年も前でその時も定期観光バスを利用したので、唐人墓と川平湾に行ったのは覚えていますが、唐人墓は前来た時は修復前だったので今回かなりきれいになっていたし、川平湾でグラスボートに乗ったのは初めてです。グラスボートでは、きれいな海にサンゴ礁、色とりどりの魚にウミガメも見れました。あと、ティータイムに立ち寄ったお店も雰囲気があったし、原生林?の散策も前はした覚えがないので、初体験でした。とても楽しかったです。

The sightseeing tour in a clean, large bus was comfortable despite the low price, and the weather was clear. There were only a few participants, and both the driver and the guide were friendly, making the experience truly enjoyable. I am very satisfied. Thank you!

快晴の中、低料金にもかかわらずきれいな大型バスでの観光は、快適でした。参加人数も少なく、ドライバーさんもガイドさんもフレンドリーで、本当に気持ちよく観光できました。大満足です。ありがとうございました。

It was a great tour that allowed us to see a good amount of Kyoto in just one day. My spouse and I, along with my parents, participated as a group of four, and I think this tour would be very convenient for those who find it troublesome to arrange transportation like trains and buses on their own. The flow of the tour was smooth, and we were able to stick to the schedule without any delays, which was wonderful! I would love to join this tour again if the opportunity arises.

１日である程度の京都観光が出来てとてもいいツアーでした。
夫婦二人、両親二人の四人で参加しましたが自分で電車やバスなど移動手段の手配が面倒な方はきっとこのツアーがとても楽だと思います。
ツアーの流れもスムーズで遅れる事なく時間通りに行けてとても良かったです！
また機会があれば参加したいツアーです
