All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

Value for money. Easy to find start location outside Kyoto train station.
Very welcoming with checks of passengers so we don't get left behind.
Great communication in different languages with earphones.
Train ride with great views nice to get out the big cities. Boat ride great. Rickshaw added extra but discount vouchers given. Brilliant staff. A trip for everyone, people with walking difficulties may find the boat ride difficult but speak to staff as the opportunity to stay on the coach.

Anyway, we were blessed with great weather. As soon as we arrived in Yakushima, it was clear skies ☀️ all the way! It seems there had been heavy rain until the day before, so the hikers were quite crowded, eagerly waiting for their long-awaited climbs.

とにかく、お天気に恵まれていました。私たちが屋久島に着いた途端に晴天☀️続きでした〜前日まで大雨だったようで、登山客の皆さんは待ちに待った登山でけっこう混み合っていました。

Due to the impact of the typhoon, it was a day with on-and-off rain. I was able to enjoy my long-awaited visit to Iriomote Island and Yufu Island, but it was disappointing that I couldn't go cycling on Taketomi Island because of the rain. I think it would be great if there were options to switch to bus tours or discounts at restaurants for rainy days, allowing for enjoyable plans even when it rains. The tours offered by Beltora are very appealing, and I always make use of them. I'm looking forward to future experiences!

台風の影響もあり　雨も降ったり止んだりの1日でした。念願の西表島　由布島は楽しめましたが、竹富島では雨でサイクリングもする事ができず残念でした。雨の場合はバスツアーに変更や飲食店の割引きなど、雨の日でも楽しめるプランへ変更できるコースがあるといいと思います。ベルトラさんのツアーはとても魅力的なツアーが多くいつも利用させて頂いてます。今後も楽しみにしています。

Although the weather wasn't very good, I was very satisfied that we were able to follow the planned itinerary without any issues. I also enjoyed the beauty of nature, and we were able to visit three islands in one day. The guides on the bus and the sightseeing boat were also very good.

お天気はあまり良くなかったものの、全て予定通りの行程をこなすことができて大満足でした。自然の素晴らしさも満喫できましたし、1日で3島も回ることができ、バスや遊覧船の方のガイドもとても良かったです。

The tour guide provided accurate guidance, allowing us to have an enjoyable time. I also appreciate the driver's safe driving.

添乗員さんが的確に案内をしていただき、楽しく過ごすことができました。
運転手さんの安全運転にも感謝しています。

Many people did not adhere to the meeting time for the tour, which left a very unpleasant feeling. Those who arrived late did not apologize, and the tour guide did not address it either.

ツアーの集合時間を守らない人が多く、不快感が大変残ったツアーでした。遅れてくる人も、謝罪は無く、添乗員も注意しません。

Since we were walking around the facility, it was a normal experience without any activities. There were many people asking questions, and by the end, we were in a bit of a hurry. The panels were also far away, and I wanted to see them later, but we had to move on to the next location, so we couldn't stop to look.

I felt like once was enough. The facility itself was very clean, as expected.

施設を見て歩くので、体験等はなく普通でした。
質問される方が多くて、最後の方は急ぎ足でした。
パネルも遠くて後で観たかったのですが、次の移動もあるので観れず進みました。

１度で良いかなと思う感じでした。
施設内はとても綺麗でさすがでした。

I went on my first trip to the Hokuriku region. The stories from our bus guide, Mr. Goto, were interesting, and the height of the surrounding mountains along with the autumn leaves were breathtaking.

The food in Shirakawa-go, especially the sweet grilled ayu (sweetfish), was delicious, and even I, who have many dislikes, was able to enjoy everything.

If I have another opportunity, I would like to see Shirakawa-go during a different season as well.

Thank you, Mr. Goto, Ms. Tsuru, and Ms. Kana!

初めての北陸旅行で行きました。
バスガイドの後藤さんの話も面白く、周りの山の高さと紅葉が圧巻でした。

白川郷のご飯は鮎の甘露煮が美味しく、好き嫌いが多い私も全部いただけました。

またの機会があれば別の時期の白川郷も見てみたいです。

後藤さん、ツルさん、カナさんありがとうございました。

I participated in the tour on November 13th. Since my daughter, who lives overseas, was with me, there was an English-speaking guide, which made the tour even more enjoyable. The guide's explanations were very clear, and they also used a number board to show the meeting times, which helped us remember visually. Overall, the tour was very well organized. The free time for exploring Shirakawa-go and Takayama was just right. And above all, the lunch, especially the Hida beef, was incredibly delicious! If anyone is considering this tour, I highly recommend it.

11/13のツアーに参加しました。海外に住む娘も一緒でしたので、英語の通訳ガイドの方もいらっしゃり、よりツアーが楽しめました。ガイドさんのお話、説明もとてもわかりやすく、また集合時間も数字のボードを使って見せてくださったので目でも覚えられて、全体的にとてもオーガナイズされていました。白川郷、高山での自由散策の時間もちょうど良かったです。そして何より飛騨牛を始めとしたランチがとても美味しかったです！
こちらのツアーをご検討されている方いらっしゃいましたら、ぜひおススメしたいです。

It had been several decades since my last school trip to Kyoto, so I wanted to participate in a tour of the classic sightseeing spots. The guide's explanations were clear and attentive, and I appreciated their consideration throughout the tour.

The bus driver was also very pleasant, which made it easy to enjoy the itinerary without any worries. Since I opted for lunch, we had a meal at Kiyomizu-dera, where the tempura was crispy, and I enjoyed traditional Japanese dishes like dengaku and yudofu.

We arrived at Kyoto Station on time for our return, which was great as it didn't interfere with my plans for the rest of the day. Thank you very much for your excellent service.

修学旅行以来、何十年ぶりの京都でしたので、王道観光地巡りをしたくて参加しました。ガイドさんの説明はわかりやすく、気配りも行き届いていました。
またバスの運転手さんも感じが良くて安心して旅程を楽しめました。
昼食付きにしたので、清水寺で食事をしたのですが、天ぷらはサクサク、田楽や湯豆腐など和食を堪能しました。
帰りも時間通りに京都駅に到着したので、そのあとの予定にもひびかずよかったです。
大変お世話になりました。

Inbound tour mainly for Chinese tourists
There were also a few Japanese participants.
The guide was fluent in Japanese.

Due to a road closure from an accident, we couldn't go to the main Shirakawa-go.
Instead, we went to Gujo Hachiman.
No one complained about the cancellation of Shirakawa-go; everyone quietly listened to the explanation, so I felt that all the participants were reasonable people.
The bus company and the guide did everything they could, so while it was disappointing not to visit Shirakawa-go, I was pleased with the experience.
People often say that foreigners lack manners, but everyone was very well-mannered.

中国人メインのインバウンドツアー
日本人も何組かおりました。
ガイドさんは日本語堪能

道路が事故で封鎖になりメインの白川郷には行けませんでした。
代わりに郡上八幡に行きました。
白川郷中止に誰一人、文句言わず静かに説明聞いていたので参加者は皆、常識人だなと
バス会社、ガイドさんも出来る限りのことはしてくれたので白川郷は残念ですが嬉しく思いました。
世間では外国人のマナーが・・・
とか言いますか皆、マナー良かったです。

I thought it would be canceled due to the typhoon, but I was super lucky that it was canceled the day before. I'm really glad it went ahead. The content was great, and I felt reassured!

台風の影響で中止になるかと思ってましたが､超ラッキーで前日は中止でしたが､
催行されて本当によかったです｡
内容も良くて安心しました!

They explained the itinerary changes, and even though they don't primarily support Japanese, they spoke to me in Japanese. Both the guide and the driver were kind and it was great.

行程変更も説明してくれたし、日本語基本対応していないのに日本語で声かけてくれた。ガイドさんもドライバーさんも優しくて良かった

The scenery at Meoto Iwa was nice, so I think it would have been good to have a bit more time there. The swing on the palm tree was a bit disappointing, though.

夫婦岩とかの景色は良かったので滞在時間をもう少しあっても良いかなと
ヤシの木のぶらんことかはちょっと残念な感じだった。

It was an irreplaceable experience. It was unfortunate that there was wind and rain due to the typhoon, but I enjoyed a very delicious lunch with Ishigaki cuisine. It was my first time on a water buffalo cart, and listening to the sanshin performance was a soothing time. I recommend this tour for anyone going to Ishigaki Island.

かけがえの無い経験になりました。
台風で風、雨が降ったのは残念でしたが、昼食は石垣料理でとても美味しく頂きました。
水牛車は初めてでしたが、三線の弾語りも聞けて癒しの時間でした。
石垣島に行く方にはオススメのツアーです。

I participated with my mother, who has difficulty walking. I was very satisfied that we could visit various sightseeing spots in just one day. The tour was aimed at international guests, but most of the participants were Japanese. Our guide, EIKO, was great with her explanations and even took personal photos for us, which was very thoughtful! Since it was just the right season for school trips, I was glad that lunch was included as well. I would love to join again if I have the opportunity.

足の悪い母と参加しました。1日でいろんな観光地に行けて大変満足しました。ツアーは海外のお客さん向けですが、日本のお客さんがほとんどでした。ガイドのEIKOさんの説明や個人的に写真を撮ってくれるなどのお気遣いも良かったです！ちょうど修学旅行シーズンだったので昼食も付けておいて良かったです。また機会があれば参加したいです。

I watched the dolphin show at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. I wish I had a bit more time there. Thank you to the bus guide and the driver! 😊

美ら海水族館でイルカのショーを観ました。もう少し時間があれば良かったのにと残念です。
バスガイドさん、運転手さんありがとうございました😊

✩ANA Blue Base Tour allows you to observe the training of airport staff, ground staff, maintenance personnel, flight crew, and cabin crew. Current employees will guide you through the facility, which is one of the largest training centers in Japan, where you can closely see the training equipment and activities for various roles that support operations, including the actual operation of simulators and other equipment. ✈️

✩ANA Blue Base Tour　空港係員、地上係員、整備士、運航乗務員、グランドスタッフや客室乗務員の訓練を見学出来ます。
現役の社員さんが施設を案内して頂き日本最大級の教育訓練施設で、運航を支える各職種の訓練設備や訓練の様子を間近で見学でき、シミュレーター等の機器が実際に動く様子も見れます✈️

The mangrove cruise passed by in no time, making me forget the passage of time. The water buffalo worked hard to pull the cart to Yubu Island, and they were very clever and diligent. The island was full of plants and connected to the beach, allowing us to have a fun time.

I was disappointed with the buffet for lunch, but the oil soba I tried without expectations was incredibly delicious—was it the magic of shikwasa?

The only downside was the rental bicycles on Taketomi Island; while I could tolerate the worn and rusty ones, the handlebars were crooked, making it very difficult to ride after not cycling for a while.

According to reviews, the fresh mango smoothie at Chirorin Village is the best! I also wanted to try the fresh pineapple smoothie...

マングローブクルーズは時間の経つのも忘れるくらいあっという間に過ぎました。
由布島までは水牛さん達一生懸命に車をひいてくれてとても賢く働き者でした。島内は植物もたくさんあり、ビーチにつながっていて楽しく時間を過ごせました。
昼はビュッフェでがっかりでした、でも期待せずに食べた油そばがすごく美味しかったのはシークヮーサーの魔法？
竹富島でのレンタルサイクルだけが残念、ボロボロでサビてるのは我慢出来るけどハンドルが斜めで久しぶりに自転車乗ったが運転がとてもしにくかったです。
口コミをみてちろりん村での生マンゴースムージーは最高‼︎生パイナップルスムージーも飲んでみたかった…。

I was able to visit many tourist spots in one day. Unfortunately, there were some disappointing parts due to the rain, but I was able to fully enjoy the atmosphere. I think it would have been perfect if the weather had been nice.

多くの観光地を1日で巡ることができました。あいにくの雨で残念な部分もありましたが、雰囲気は十分に味わえました。天気がよければ最高だったと思います。

We participated as a couple. We were able to see Mount Yotei and efficiently visit the highlights. I thought the last stop at Mitsui Outlet could have been a bit shorter.

夫婦で参加させていただきました。羊蹄山も見ることができ、見どころを効率的訪れることができました。最後の三井アウトレットは、もう少し短くてもいいかなと思いました。

Overall, arranging everything by yourself can be a hassle, but with the bus, ox cart, and boat, everything is taken care of in one go. It allows for efficient travel, includes pick-up and drop-off services, and offers free time, making it highly recommended for first-time visitors.

The boat may lack the luxury compared to other companies, but since you won't be on it for hours, it's not a problem.

One thing to note: the bicycles available for rent are quite worn out. It was mentioned that there would be English guidance, but there was none at all. I applied for the bicycle rental option, and while it clearly stated that those who cannot speak Japanese are not allowed, I inquired whether it would be fine if someone who speaks Japanese accompanied me, and it was indeed fine. It would be better if this information were accurately stated.

とにかく自分で手配したら面倒なのですが、バス、牛車、船、と全て一発です。
効率良く回れ、送迎もあり、自由時間もあり、で、初めて行く方はお勧めします。
船は他社に比べると豪華さに欠けますが、何時間も乗るわけでないので問題なし。

気になった事。
自転車レンタルオプションの自転車はかなりボロいです。
英語ガイダンスあり、と書いてありましたが、全く案内ありませんでした。
自転車レンタルオプションを申し込みましたが、明らかに、日本語できない人は不可、とありますが、日本語が話せる者が同行したら問題ないか問い合わせて、問題ありませんでした。
記載だけなので、正確に記載されていたらもっと良いと思います。

You can efficiently visit all the points you want. The guide was attentive and wonderful, and I enjoyed listening to songs played on the sanshin. The driver also drove safely, making it a fantastic time.

行きたいポイントを効率よく回ってもらえます。
ガイドさん付きでガイドさんのお話が丁寧で素晴らしく三線での歌も聞かせてもらえて楽しかったです。
ドライバーさんも安全運転で最高な時間でした。

I was taken to places that are hard to visit on my own, like Lake Toya, Showa Shinzan, the Bear Ranch (additional fee), and Noboribetsu! Each stop was brief, so some might feel it wasn't enough time to really explore. For us, it was a fulfilling experience. Thank you!

洞爺湖、昭和新山、クマ牧場（別料金）、登別と自分ではなかなか回れないところに連れて行ってもらいました！
ひとつひとつは時間が短く、じっくり見るには足りない方もいるかも。私たちにとっては充実した時間になりました。ありがとうございます！

This was my third time visiting Ishigaki Island, but it was the first time for my wife, my daughter and her husband, and my two grandchildren. Our accommodation was all-inclusive, so we were having a great time without needing to go out. However, I thought it would be a shame not to do any sightseeing while we were in Ishigaki, so I made a reservation for a half-day private sightseeing taxi from Veltra without consulting my family. On the day of the tour, I discussed with the driver and requested to visit the glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay and try the gelato at Mirumiru. I left everything else to the driver, and we just followed along. At the glass-bottom boat, my grandchildren and daughter were thrilled to see tropical fish and sea turtles. At Mirumiru, we were blessed with good weather and enjoyed gelato and shaved ice outside, which made us very happy! The driver's sightseeing commentary along the way was enjoyable, and we truly appreciated his help. Even though it was time to go, he took us to the observation deck, so thank you very much. I plan to visit Ishigaki again in December and intend to book the same tour. Thank you in advance!

自分は石垣島は3回目でしたが、女房・娘夫婦、孫2人は初めての石垣島でした。宿はオールインクルーシブなので、外に出なくても十分楽んでいました。しかしせっかく石垣島に来て一つも観光しないなんてと思い、自分が家族とは相談せずに、勝手にベルトラの半日貸し切り観光タクシーを予約しました。その日に運転手さんと相談し、川平湾のグラスボート、ミルミルのジェラードの観光をお願いしました。あとは運転手さんに全てお任せで、我々はその通りに
動いただけです。しかしグラスボートでは孫や娘たちは熱帯魚・ウミガメを見て大騒ぎ。ミルミルでは天気にも恵まれ、外でジェラード・かき氷を食べて大満足！それらの行く途中にも運転手さんの観光案内が楽しくて本当に世話になりました。時間になったにもかかわらず、見晴らし台にも連れて行って貰えて、ありがとうございました。12月にもまた石垣に行く予定です。同じツアーを予約するつもりです。宜しくお願いします。

The tour included visits to Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, and it was a lot of fun. I especially enjoyed the bus driver's stories based on his real experiences on Iriomote Island; they were interesting and entertaining. I think he might have exaggerated a bit, but I was impressed by his calm way of speaking and how he wrapped up his stories with a punchline. I thought this was really insightful and listened intently. As for the ferry returning from Taketomi Island to Ishigaki Island, the boarding area was hard to find. There were no announcements at the waiting area, so we almost missed the boat. I wonder if there were others who missed it too.

西表島も由布島も竹富島にも行くツアーでしたが、とても楽しかったです。とくに西表島のバスの運転手さんの実体験に伴うトークが、面白くて楽しかったです。多少、盛ってるとこ有ると思いますが穏やかな話し方と、ちゃんとオチのある締め方で感心しました。コレって参考になるなぁ～と思って聴きいりました。竹富島から石垣島に帰るフェリーですが、乗り場が分かりにくかったです。待合所では、何のアナウンスも無かったので乗船がギリギリになってしまいました。中には乗り遅れた人もいたのでは？と思います。

I went to Okinawa for the first time. I was inspired to go after coming across travel videos about Okinawa on YouTube. Just watching the videos made me feel like I was traveling every day. My husband, who is recovering from an illness, suddenly said, "Let's go to Okinawa!" His condition had stabilized, and I thought we could go if we adjusted his diet (salt intake). We managed to book our flights and hotel, and created an itinerary. We chose a bus tour, and the weather was great, making it a fun and comfortable experience.

はじめて沖縄に行きました。
YouTubeで沖縄旅行✈️してる動画に出会ったのがきっかけ。動画見ているだけで旅行に行けてる気分で毎日過ごしていました。
病気療養中の主人が突然、沖縄に行こう！
体調も落ち着いていましたが、食事(塩分)を調整すれば行けるかも😃飛行機✈️、ホテル🏨の予約がとれ行程表を作成しました。で、選んだのがバス🚌ツアーでした。天候にも恵まれて楽しく快適なツアーでした。

The explanations were polite and precise, allowing us to enjoy all the sights without missing anything. The guide was truly wonderful, recommending great places to eat.

丁寧で的確な説明で、名所を逃さず楽しむことができました。
おすすめの食事処を教えてくださったり本当に素晴らしいガイドさんでした。

It was a place that makes you want to go back after just one visit. My wife and daughter were happy too. I will go again. Next time, I want to join a different tour. It will definitely be a good experience.

１回行ったら次も行きたくなるような場所でした。嫁も娘も喜んでました。また行きます(^^)次回は違うツワーに参加したいと思いました。良い経験になる事間違えないです。

I was a bit anxious about driving in a new place for the first time, so taking the bus to efficiently visit several main locations in Okinawa (from the northern to central areas) was ideal. The bus group happened to have many tourists from overseas, which led to some friendly interactions, and we ended up sightseeing together at some spots. It turned into a bit of international exchange. This course included lunch only, but since the final stop was close to Kokusai Street, I went to a restaurant I had reserved before the trip for dinner. Using this course as an optional activity during your travels is a great idea!

初めての場所で運転に不安もありましたので、沖縄の幾つかの主な場所（北部~中部）をバスで効率的に回るのには最適でした。バスグループは、海外からのツアー客がたまたま多かったのですが、逆に仲良くなり一緒に観光して回った場所もありました。ちょっとした国際交流になりました。このコースは、昼食のみセットになっていましたが、終点が国際通りにも近かったため、夕食は、旅行前に予約しておいた国際通りにある、気になるレストランに行きました。旅のオプショナルとしてこのコースを利用するのもありです！
