All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I went on the tour with my sister two days after the October typhoon. Due to a landslide caused by the typhoon, we had to take a detour, which resulted in additional travel time. Unfortunately, we were not able to travel up to the 5th station due to the change in schedule/timing. We were also not able to see Fuji-san due to the cloudy weather. But we understand that this is beyond the tour company's control. On the flip side, the tour guides were extremely friendly and tried to make up for cancelling the 5th station trip by providing some snacks, which were quite thoughtful. Overall, I like how the tour guides were organized and upfront about the change in schedule. They also incorporated some humour when interacting with us, which made us feel welcomed. The ice cream at the end of the tour was a nice touch to complete the experience (we recommend having the peach flavour!). I can imagine that the itinerary would be perfect if the weather was accommodating. We will definitely come back again, perhaps during spring time when Mt. Fuji is more visible.

It was a great tour! It was the best way to get the highlights of Kyoto. It’s very historic place with lots to see. This tour was a great experience, the tour guide was wonderful. The entire day was spent efficiently traveling from one location to another and see what each had to offer. The tour guide took us to some very nice spots in the temples and shrines where We got nice pictures. The street food venders near the shrine were delicious. There’s a lot of little stores along the way going to the temples and you can buy little souvenirs. You have free time to walk around the temples and just had to be back by a certain time so we could move on to the next activity. We got the tour that included a lunch, the food was great! You also have the option of picking vegetarian food. Overall, the experience was great and we never felt like we were confused as where to meet next. if you take this tour you will see some truly beautiful sights and views. There is on temple where I couldn’t take pictures but that was probably my favorite beside the golden pavilion. The bamboo forest was also very beautiful. Make sure you take very comfortable shoes, it’s a lot of walking and take lots of pictures! Can get somewhat crowded at different locations but still a very nice experience! Definitely would do this tour again!

I disembarked at Ishigaki Island from the cruise ship and switched to this tour by Ishigaki Island Dream Tourism, which was a great decision. It was a full course tour of Taketomi Island with multiple activities, and everything was well coordinated, allowing us to enjoy the tour without any unnecessary waiting time according to the schedule. The counter inside the remote island terminal was also kind and attentive. I want to enjoy this company's tour again next time!

クルーズ船で石垣島に上陸したが、船のエスカッションから石垣島ドリーム観光社のこのツアーに乗り換えたが、大正解だった。アクティヴィティが複数ある竹富島フルコースだったが、各所キチッと連携が取れていてSCHEDULE通り余分な待ち時間も無くツアーを楽しめた。離島ターミナル内のカウンターも親切丁寧です。次回もこの会社のツアーを楽しみたい！

Brought mom on this tour today! It was her first time in Tokyo, and I was quite worried how the tour would turn out given the weather forecast (rain!) and the reported closures of certain attractions caused by the recent typhoon. As it turned out, our worries were unfounded! While it was indeed raining as we were boarding the bus this morning, the weather started to clear as we head closer to Mt Fuji. The tour agency also made very good arrangements for us to have a great time. Coupled with the enthusiastic tour guide Jane, I would say our whole bus-load of people truly had an unforgettable day out! And guess what we found at Mt.Fuji? None other than Mt.Fuji!! I know this may not make sense, but you'd be surprised how many people went to Mt Fuji without seeing it...mainly due to weather issues. Well, we thought we wouldn't be able to catch it, but we did...snow-capped no less!

Really appreciate the quality of the tour, the seamless arrangements from one destination to another, and the professionalism show by the tour guide, and our bus driver. Couldn't have asked for more. Thumbs up!

We really enjoyed this sightseeing tour. You get to see the best spots in Kyoto in only one day. However, some spots (such as Arashiyama) require more time to explore. Our guide Jorge was really good, he speaks English fluently and provided just the right kind of information and details. The one thing I did not like was the lunch, so if you are a picky eater, there are other lunch options in Arashiyama.

I highly recommend participating in this when you visit Taketomi Island! Riding a water buffalo to tour the streets lined with red-tiled roofs and white sand, typical of Okinawa, is the best experience. The guide had a shamisen and sang for us, which was another great highlight! The tour lasts about 30 minutes, so I think you can spend the remaining time exploring the beach or cycling around the island!

竹富島に訪れたら1度は参加オススメします！赤瓦のいえ、白い砂が一面に広がる沖縄らしい街並みを水牛に乗って観光するのは最高です。
ガイドさんが三味線を持っており、歌ってくれました。それも加えてよかったポイントですね！
30分ほどでツアーは終わるので、余った時間は、砂浜や自転車で島観光してもいいと思います！

Kouri Island is beautiful. There were a few waves, but I enjoyed exploring the Churaumi Aquarium until just before closing time. It was great. At Manza Beach, it usually seems to be crowded, but it was surprisingly less busy this time, so I was able to see it quickly.

古宇利島は、キレイ　少し波はあったけど　美ら海水館は、時間ギリギリまで、開園の中を見ました、良かったです。万座毛は、いつもは、たくさん人がいるみたいで、珍しく人が少なかったので、早く見れました。　

I was blessed with great weather and a wonderful team, allowing me to enjoy a challenging 10-hour trek. The veteran guide skillfully managed the pace and timing, so there were no delays from queues at photo spots or waiting for restrooms, which allowed us to take our time at Wilson's stump and Jomon Sugi. On the return trip along the trolley path, I also encountered Yakushima monkeys and Yakushima deer, creating wonderful memories. The recommended sightseeing spots introduced by the guide for the following day were also excellent, and I thoroughly enjoyed the great nature of Yakushima for the second time in two years.

天候にもチームにも恵まれ、10時間のハードなトレッキングを楽しめました。ベテランガイドさんがペース配分や時間をうまく誘導して下さり、写真スポットでの行列やトイレ待ちなどのロスもなく、おかげでウィルソン株や縄文杉ではゆっくりすることができました。帰りのトロッコ道で屋久猿・屋久鹿にも出会え、すばらしい思い出になりました。ガイドさんに紹介していただいた翌日のおすすめ観光スポットもとても良く、二年ぶり二回目の屋久島の大自然を堪能しました

My first trekking experience, wrapped in fluffy velvet and surrounded by Yakusugi, was incredibly healing and mesmerizing from start to finish! When I mentioned to the guide that I’m a self-proclaimed moss lover, we stopped in front of various mosses, and he shared fascinating stories that got me excited. The miso soup the guide made was deeply comforting and truly delicious. I had inquired about the transportation via email beforehand, and they responded with such kindness and thoroughness that I was genuinely grateful! Thanks to them, I was able to take home memories that feel like treasures. Thank you very much!

モフモフのベルベットにくるまれた屋久杉を愛でながらの初トレッキングは、終始癒され見惚れっぱなし！自称苔好きとガイドさんに話したら、様々な苔の前で足を止め興味深い話をして下さってワクワクしました。ガイドさんがいれてくれたみそ汁が、心身共に沁みてしみじみ美味しかったです。送迎の件で事前にメールで問い合わせしたところ、こちらが頭が下がるほど非常に親切丁寧に対応して下さって本当に有難かったです！おかげさまで宝物のような思い出を持ち帰れました。ありがとうございました！

A very well organised day trip to Mount Fuji, including lunch, lake cruise and cable car ride.
Fantastic experience, although we only had a brief view of Fuji San (you can't control the weather!!).
Lovely light lunch at a "French Themed" restaurant in the theme park at the base of Fuji.
20 minute lake cruise and a cable car ride, with cracking views of Mount Fuji (if weather plays ball!!), expertly guided by Hiro!!
Thoroughly recommend this trip.

I had a very, very enjoyable day! The meeting time wasn't too early, and the meeting place was easy to find near Sapporo Station. Plus, since it was by bus, we could listen to explanations while traveling.

We visited the Rokkatei souvenir shop, had cheese fondue and hamburgers for lunch, went to Farm Tomita, saw the roller coaster from the bus window, visited Shikisai no Oka, the Blue Pond, saw the patchwork hills from the bus window, and then returned to the city.

Both the driver and the guide were kind. We were able to efficiently visit many places, take lots of photos, and I ended up sleeping soundly on the way back, enjoying the sightseeing.

I visited in early October, but I would like to use this tour again in the middle of summer. Thank you very much!

とてもとても楽しい1日でした(^^)
集合時間も早くなく、待ち合わせ場所も札幌駅近くと分かりやすいです。
そして、ﾊﾞｽなので解説を聞きながら移動が出来ます。
六花亭のお土産屋さん→ﾁｰｽﾞﾌｫﾝﾃﾞｨｭとﾊﾝﾊﾞｰｸﾞのﾗﾝﾁ→ﾌｧｰﾑ富田→（車窓からｼﾞｪｯﾄｺｰｽﾀｰの道）→四季彩の丘→青い池→（車窓からﾊﾟｯﾁﾜｰｸの丘）→市街地へ戻り
運転手さん、ｶﾞｲﾄﾞさん共に優しいかたでした(^^)
効率良く回れ、写真もたくさん撮れ、帰りは爆睡して観光を楽しめました。
訪れたのが10月初旬でしたが、次は真夏にまたこのﾂｱｰを利用したいと思いました、
ありがとうございました(^^)

The overall impression of the experience was great and everything was on time.
We're a couple and liked the most about the mountain and scenery nearby. However, it depends on the weather as well. We're a bit unfortunate because we could not see the top of the mountain as it was cloudy (indeed, we could not predict the weather accurately, because we booked earlier based on forecast and it supposed to be sunny). But, we had enough time to walk and explore at the 5th station. The staffs were all great and friendly: from the lady who welcomed us, the guide who speaks both japanese and english, and of course the driver. We expected to have a light lunch provided, but the trip included a proper course lunch which was great and delicious. Also, they have options for special dietry and you must make sure to let them know. We can advice future participants to book in advanced as the tour can easily get fully book, please state clearly if you have any special dietry for lunch, and enjoy your trips! Overall, it's highly recommended especially for those travelling with kids, couple, and old people. All the seighseeing, lunch, cruise, cable car, and return transport are included.

I used this service before heading to the airport on my return home. It's a great tour that allows for sightseeing and drops you off at the airport. The guide played the sanshin and sang on the bus. It's a very good tour.

帰宅日、空港行く前に利用しました。
観光もできて空港で下車できていうことないツアーです。バスの中でガイドさんが三線を弾いて歌ってくれました。とてもよいツアーです。

It was a very good tour. The tour guide is very knowledgable about the places. He also gave us lots of free time taking pictures and buy souvenirs. Our lunch was also good. We will book again here on our future japan tour again. Thank you

The cost performance was excellent. I was able to enjoy both the lake and the mountains at this price. The view is beautiful and very soothing. The lunch was also quite delicious.

コスパが最高でした。この値段でみずうみも山も楽しむことができました。眺めが綺麗で、癒やしです。昼食も結構美味しいですよ。

This trip was in general very good. It was easy to find the meeting spot and the person who was standing there waiting was very helpful and made sure that everyone got on the bus etc. The bus was very comfortable and when arriving at the fifth plateau it was unfortunately cloudy. However the bus driver stopped at a second stop that was not in the plan and there we were able to see the top. Very appreciated! The lake cruise and the ropeway ride was okay, would probably be more fun if it was sunny. The time at this stop was too long as well. In the end, everyone was standing around and waiting for the bus to go back to Tokyo so maybe reduce the time there during the off season. But in general, a very good 1-day trip that I would recommend.

My husband and I did this great tour together. It was filled with fantastic views and sceneries. The boat cruise was amazing and Mount Fuji is stunning. It's 100% recommended to do this tour if you want to experience Mount Fuji from different points of views. It might get cold out there, so we recommend you bring a sweater. The tour leader was a sweetheart and the Veltra team did a great job organising every part of the trip. We highly recommend this tour.

The overall experience was outstanding. Both the tour leader and bus driver were very friendly and offer assistant in any way they can. At every stop the tour leader explained very carefully what to do and when we need to get back to the bus. The 5th Station was cloudy and we did not get the chance to see Mt. Fuji. Same for Lake Kawaguchi. However after riding the ropeway to the top of the mountain and wait for a while, we could finally see the peak of Mt. Fuji. Such an amazing experience. The best part of the tour is the western-style lunch at a very cozy restaurant, and the $3 coupon. We did not use the coupon to buy ice cream but to buy souvenir because there are many selections.

The entire process of booking the trip, partaking in the day’s activities, and returning back to Tokyo was all seamless. We were blessed with beautiful weather and clear views of Mt. Fuji, which was a huge bonus. Lunch was great. If you are a big eater, I would recommend bringing or buying a snack for the ride home in the evening. Overall, very satisfied!

Had an amazing time on this tour. Our tour guide communicated clearly and effectively with the guests. He made sure everyone knew when and where to come back at and willingly answered everyones questions. The weather was perfect!! We saw Mt. Fuji in all its beauty. Lunch was pretty good with a fun spot at FujiQ theme park. Lots of photo opportunities! The boat ride was great, you get to see mt. Fuji without interruptions. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to spend a day seeing the famous mountain

I was satisfied with the bus tour I booked this time. The tour guide was cheerful, and the bus driver was kind. I think it was great that we were able to visit many sightseeing spots, but I wish we had a bit more time. It felt like there wasn't much time to buy souvenirs leisurely. However, overall, compared to traveling alone using public transportation, it was stress-free, and I would like to use this service again next time.

今回は、バスツアーを予約して満足でした。
ツアーガイドさんも明るく、バスの運転士さんも親切でした。
観光名所をたくさん訪れる事が出来て良かったとは思いますが、時間にもう少し余裕があれば良かったと思います。お土産などをゆっくり買う時間はあまりなかった感じです。
でも、全体的には、個人で公共の交通機関を利用してまわることを考えたらストレスがなくて、次回も利用したいと思いました。

This was my first time participating in this kind of bus tour, and I had a great time learning various things thanks to the bus guide's extensive knowledge. I got to see the professionalism in their work. Thank you very much.

この手のバスツアーへの参加は初めてでしたが、バスガイドさんの豊富な知識で様々な事を知れて大変楽しめました。プロの仕事ぶりを見せて頂きました。有難うございました。

First, there was a mix-up with the meeting place, and we were made to wait longer than scheduled. I naturally thought we would tour Pineapple Park in the pineapple-shaped car shown in the pictures, but due to congestion, despite arriving earlier than planned, we ended up just walking around, which was disappointing.

We spent three hours at the aquarium, watched the dolphin show, and didn't have time to visit other botanical gardens. We saw whale sharks at the aquarium, and since it was Saturday, the souvenir shop was crowded. The bus stop at the meeting place was quite far, so in the end, we didn't have time to buy anything.

Considering the transportation costs, the admission fee is cheap, so I understand that. However, I wish they had reduced the time for lunch at the facility we stopped at (the small sandwiches were not good) and allowed us to eat our bento on the bus instead, so we could have more time at the aquarium.

まず集合場所の取違いがあり、予定時間より待たされました。
パイナップルパークは当然、看板写真にあるパイナップルの車？で巡ると思っていたら、混雑との事で、予定より早めに着いたにもかかわらず、まさかの歩いて回るだけでガッカリ。
水族園で三時間、イルカショーをみて、他の植物園などまわる時間はなく、水族園でジンベイザメなどをみて、土曜日だったこともあり最後お土産やさんも並んでて、集合場所のバス乗り場まで距離があるため、結局買う時間なかったです。
交通費を思えば入場料付きで安いので仕方ないとはいえ、途中で寄った施設でのランチ(小さなサンドイッチ不味いです)の時間を削って、バス内でお弁当を食べるなどにして、水族園の時間を増やしてほしいと思いました。

The best option for foreigners to visit Mt. Fuji as a one day trip. The trip was very well planned and organized. Our tour coordinator was very pleasant and friendly. She was very informative about the various attractions on the way as well as the planned spots. Our first destination was fifth station of Mt. Fuji. Even though clouds covered Mt. Fuji most of the time, we were able to have a pretty good look at the highest peak of Japan, thanks to our generous driver who stopped at a point( when the clouds moved away for a few moments) just below the fifth station on our way back. The next destination was lake kawaguchi where we experienced lake cruise and rope way ride. The lake is surrounded by green landscape. This will be a perfect option for any group like family, friends, couples etc.

The place where I had lunch was old, and it had a souvenir shop attached to the cafeteria, but there was a hall with a lot of butterflies, which was uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend that place. Everything else was good. It was easy to travel by bus, I could enjoy the scenery, and the prices were reasonable.

お昼を食べた場所は古く、食堂にお土産屋さんがついてる所だったのですが、そこに蝶がたくさんいる館があったのですが、気持ち悪かったです。あそこはないな～×。そこ以外は良かったです。バスで楽だし、景色も見られるし、値段もお手頃でした。

The experience overall was amazing starting with the bus journey to Fuji which was comfy and air conditioned with a friendly driver. Our tour leader was extremely informative, happy and spoke great English. The 5th station was cloudy but it was a lovely area to walk around and the views were still incredible. The boat journey on Lake kawaguchi was stunning and peaceful. What made the whole trip was when we went up the ropeway the cloudy had moved and we could see Mount Fuji clearly. A lovely touch at the end was a voucher for ice cream. I would recommend this trip to everyone who want to see Mount Fuji or just wants a trip outside busy Tokyo.

I booked a round-trip ticket plus a water buffalo cart plan. It's more economical than purchasing them separately! After riding the water buffalo cart, there was free time, and the return time was just right.

往復乗車券＋水牛車のプランを申し込みました。別々に購入するよりお得です！
水牛車に乗った後は自由時間があり、帰りの時間もちょうど良かったです。

It was amazing experience to visit Mt. Fuji
Tour guide and driver are really kind.
Food was amazing, never had Hoto noodles before, it wasMiso type flavored soup.
Souvenir shop was interesting I bought rock sweets

The bus tour from Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go was wonderful, thanks to the excellent service from our guide K and driver M from the organizing company, White Ring. The bus parking and dining location were right in the main street of Shirakawa-go, so there was no time loss for exploring. The information about various sightseeing spots and souvenirs made our exploration time even more fulfilling. I definitely want to participate in the autumn foliage and winter illumination if I get the chance.

金沢発の白川郷バスツアーですが、開催会社ホワイトリングのガイドＫさん＆ドライバーＭさんの対応がすばらしく、思い出になる旅行となりました。
白川郷メイン通り内にバス駐車＆食事場所でしたので散策にタイムロスがないです。
散策スポットやいろいろなお土産情報が、散策時間をより充実させてくれました。
ぜひ　秋の紅葉や冬のライトアップに機会あったら参加したいです。

The trip was excellent along with the guide and the lunch we had, well done
