It seems that the only course that covers Shiratani Unsuikyo, Taiko Rock, Wilson Stump, and Jomon Sugi in one day is this one from Veltra. The meeting time is at 4:30 AM, and we disband around 5 PM to 6 PM. Whether you choose just the Shiratani Unsuikyo course or just the Jomon Sugi course, you will still experience muscle soreness the next day. In that case, it might be better to do it all at once (laughs).
However, this course is for those who are physically fit and confident in their stamina, as it is designed for the chosen ones. I, who honestly underestimated it and don’t usually exercise much, ended up waiting at Wilson Stump while the other members went on to Jomon Sugi. I was satisfied that I was able to reach Taiko Rock (which was incredibly beautiful on that clear day) – it felt like a miracle.
Also, I felt it was great to have a guide because they not only know the paths well but also consider the pace. Before the tougher climbs like Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi, they suggested leaving our backpacks behind (which is something beginners might not think of). Thank you, Mr. Shimozono. I look forward to your help again next time! ^^*
1日で白谷雲水峡~太鼓岩~ウィルソン株~縄文杉を巡るのは、ベルトラのこちらのコースだけのようです。
朝4時半集合で、解散は17時~18時くらい。
白谷雲水峡だけのコースでも、縄文杉だけのコースでも、翌日筋肉痛になるのは変わりません。でしたら、1回で済ませた方がよろしいかと(笑)
ただし、日頃から運動していたりして、体力に自信のある、選ばれし者たちのコースでもあります。
日頃大した運動もせず、正直舐めてた私は、ウィルソン株手前で他のメンバーが縄文杉まで行ってくるのを待つことに。太鼓岩(晴れ渡ってめちゃくちゃ綺麗だった)まで行けたのも奇跡だったので満足しています。
また、ガイドを頼んでよかったなぁと感じるのは、道に詳しいのはもちろんのこと、ペース配分を考えてくれることです。太鼓岩や縄文杉など厳しめの登りの前には、ザックなどの荷物を置いていくようにしてくれたり(意外と素人は考えつきません)。
下園さん、お世話になりました。またお世話になるときにはよろしくお願いします^^*

Even as a family of beginner hikers, we were able to see Jomon Sugi! The encouragement from our guide and the fact that the weather improved despite the forecast of heavy rain was truly amazing. If I had to be picky, the guide's explanations were a bit lacking, and there wasn't much time for taking photos, which prevented it from being completely satisfying. However, we did encounter monkeys, making it a fun memory overall.
登山初心者の家族でも縄文杉を見る事が出来ました!ガイドさんの励ましや大雨の予報で降ってたにも関わらず天気の回復予測も当たっていて凄いの一言でした。欲を言えばガイドさんの解説が少ないのと写真を撮る時間があまり無かったことが大満足にならなかった要因です。でも猿にも遭遇したりと楽しい思い出になりました。

I participated in a tour of two World Heritage sites, Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, as part of my trip to Kanazawa. While the time allocated for sightseeing at the two World Heritage sites wasn't exactly leisurely, it was sufficient for a good visit, and we even stopped at an observation deck that offered a panoramic view of Shirakawa-go, which wasn't part of the original plan. The lunch was quite tasty, and I finished it all. In addition to visiting the World Heritage sites, the tour also took us through the three prefectures of Ishikawa, Toyama, and Gifu, allowing us to enjoy the mountains of virgin forests and rivers flowing through valleys centered around the Hakusan range, as well as waterfalls. There were no obligatory souvenir shop stops typical of bus tours, making it a highly satisfying tour and a fulfilling day.
金沢旅行のオプションに白川郷と五箇山の合掌造りの2つの世界遺産ツアーに参加しました。2つの世界遺産はゆっくりとまでは言えないものの観光に十分な時間設定がされていて、予定になかった白川郷全景が一望できる展望台にも立ち寄ってくれました。昼食もまずまず美味しくて完食。また世界遺産観光のみならず、移動では石川、富山、岐阜の三県を巡りますが、白山系を中心に原生林の山々や谷に流れる川、滝巡りも楽しめます。バスツアーに付き物の土産物屋のはしごも無くて、満足度の高いツアーで充実した1日となりました。

I was impressed by the courteous and attentive service from start to finish. The guidance on how to enjoy the Churaumi Aquarium was excellent. Thanks to this, we were able to efficiently visit the aquarium and catch the dolphin show within our limited time.
On the bus, our guide even took the time to put her hair up and wear a costume, singing with a gentle, clear voice. She was talented in playing the shamisen and also performed hula dance.
The driver also made sure to say "Have a good day" to each person every time, which showed his dedication to his work. I thought this kind of thoughtful consideration is probably the secret to making it a popular tour.
The breathtaking views of Kouri Island are still etched in my memory. I learned a lot about Okinawa's history and culture, and my whole family said they want to come back again. Thank you very much.

Although it took almost double time to get to the first destination because the day we attended tour was just before holiday and everyone went their hometown, the guide Hiroshi-san was entertaining us and taught us many aspects of Japan!
That was shame that at some destination we had only a half of normal time, so we had to rush seeing the places, but that's due to the traffic jam and couldn't be helped.
Thanks to guide's tip, we were able to get a good blueberry ice cream!

On my first trip to Yakushima, I finally went trekking to Jomon Sugi, which I had been longing to do. I thought it was early when I had a 4:10 AM pickup, but I was so happy to be going to Jomon Sugi that I managed to wake up early.
Before departure, I had a breakfast bento and did some stretching! Walking along the tramway while watching the sunrise and surrounded by beautiful green nature, I enjoyed delicious spring water along the way. After about five and a half hours, I finally reached the long-awaited Jomon Sugi!
Trekking surrounded by many Yakusugi trees was filled with emotions that I can't fully express here. The power of Jomon Sugi is incredible! Thank you to the guide from the Yakushima Guide Association.

トロッコ道を歩きながら朝日を見て、キレイな緑の自然の中を歩き、途中で美味しい湧き水を飲みながら、約5時間半かけて、やっと念願の縄文杉に辿り着きました!

In addition to the course you used this time, we also have courses to the northern and southern parts of the island, so we would be grateful if you could consider them.
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback. We sincerely look forward to your next visit to Okinawa.

It was great for efficiently exploring Okinawa, especially since it was my first time there and I wasn't used to driving. Walking along the Fukugi tree-lined path was something I wouldn't have thought to do unless I was taken there on a tour, but thanks to that, I had a wonderful experience. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to stroll around here a bit longer, but that's just how it is.
The aquarium exceeded my expectations; I thought I wouldn't need much time there, but I actually needed more. I really enjoyed it.
It was a packed day, and I was able to spend it meaningfully.
沖縄自体が初めてというのと、車の運転に慣れていないのとで効率よく回るにはとても良かったです。フクギ並木を歩くなんて、ツアーで連れて行ってもらわない限り行こうという気にもならなかったと思うのですが、おかげでいい体験ができました。欲を言えば、もう少しここをゆっくり散策したかったのですが、それは仕方がないですね。
水族館も予想以上で、行く前はそんなに時間は必要ないんじゃないかと思っていたのですが、足りないくらいでした。とても満喫できました。
盛りだくさんで、一日を有意義に過ごせました。

I truly appreciate all the help from start to finish.
I had requested a set including a backpack as an option, and they flexibly accommodated the delivery. They also kindly contacted me in advance. On the day of the trip, we were blessed with great weather. They shared various local knowledge and climbing techniques with us.
I highly recommend participating in the economical plan that allows you to climb all at once! Even if you're not very confident in your physical strength, if you do a little exercise regularly, I suggest visiting not only Jomon Sugi but also Shiratani Unsuikyo since you're going there anyway.
I am in my early 30s, and my mother is 60 years old; we went to experience the world heritage site that my mother had dreamed of. During the descent, my mother was even more energetic than I was. For us, it was better to do it in one day rather than splitting it into two.

This tour includes both water buffalo carts traveling through the water on Yubu Island and those moving through the town on Taketomi Island. As previous travelers have noted, upon checking in at the remote island terminal, we received all our tickets and proceeded to our respective boarding areas on time. The coordination and guidance at each location were solid, allowing us to explore freely and comfortably while ensuring a safe and efficient visit to all three islands.
The mangrove cruise took place on a day close to high tide, but there were unique sights to see during low tide, and the captain's stories were entertaining.
On Yubu Island, the water buffalo cart crosses the sea, creating a scene filled with sky, ocean, and the water buffalo cart. I had imagined it would have a more rustic charm, but it turned out to be quite touristy with a comical side, which seemed to appeal to a wide range of generations. While on land, after confirming the return time for the water buffalo cart, we were free to explore. For lunch, we went to a cafeteria where we enjoyed a bento box featuring Okinawan ingredients, including rice made from black rice from Iriomote Island. As someone visiting Okinawa for the first time, I found the unique food delicious, and I even bought some souvenirs at Ishigaki Airport on the way back, thanks to the bento from Yubu Island. We took beautiful photos of flowers and the water buffalo in the water, and while we could relax on Yubu Island, it was hot, so we took breaks in cool buildings while exploring.
On Taketomi Island, I chose the water buffalo cart and bus tour. First, we took a bus from Taketomi Port to Kaiji Beach and Kondoi Beach. Although the time at each location was short, there were cheers when we saw the beautiful shallow beaches. The water buffalo cart then leisurely moved through the streets lined with red-tiled roofs and blooming bougainvillea. (The water buffalo has a habit of stopping in the shade, which was quite charming.) With a roof overhead, we were shielded from the heat, and the 30 minutes passed quickly as the tour neared its end. The connection to the bus back to Taketomi Port was excellent, so there wasn't time to shop or have tea in town, but without this kind of tour that allows for a short visit to all three islands, I wouldn't have been able to travel to the Yaeyama Islands. The itinerary itself and the operational efficiency of the tour seemed to reflect feedback from previous travelers, showing improvements, and I thought it was a wonderfully well-organized tour. This time, I traveled alone as a reconnaissance trip, but if it’s this good, I’d like to bring my husband along next time and go again.
由布島で水の中をゆく水牛車と、竹富島の町なかをゆく水牛車の両方があるこのツアー。
先人の方が、体験談に書いておられる通り、離島ターミナルでの受付時に、すべてのチケットを受け取って、時間通りに各々乗り場へ。各場所での連携、誘導もしっかりしていて、自由で気楽
でありながら、安心で、効率良く3島を回れました。
マングローブクルーズは大潮に近い日にちでしたが、引き潮ならではの見どころがあり、
船長さんのお話も面白かった。
由布島では、海をわたってゆく水牛車。視界の中が、空と、海と、水牛車、の世界。。。
は、もうちょっといい感じに鄙びた風情かと勝手に思っておりましたが、
ツーリスティックで、コミカルな一面もあり、それはそれで、幅広い世代に受けている様子。
上陸中は、戻りの水牛車の集合時間を確認したら、自由に見学します。
お昼は、各々食堂に行き頂くのですが、
沖縄食材を散りばめたお弁当で、西表島の黒米?のごはんがついています。沖縄方面は初めての私には珍しい食べものが多くとても美味しかったので、帰りの石垣空港でお土産に買ったものもあり、由布島のお弁当のおかげと思っています。
美しい花や、水に入っている水牛さんの写真を撮ったり、由布島では結構ゆっくりできますが、
暑いので涼しい建物のなかで休憩しつつの見学という感じでした。
竹富島は、水牛車とバス観光を選びました。
まず、バスで竹富港からカイジ浜や、コンドイ浜へ。各所時間は短いですが、遠浅の美しい浜が見えた時には、歓声が上がっていました。
そして、水牛車は、ブーゲンビリアの咲く赤瓦の街並みをゆっくりと進みます。
(日陰で止まる癖のある水牛さんがご愛嬌)
屋根があるので暑さは遮られ30分は結構すぐ過ぎて、ツアーも終盤です。
帰りの竹富港までのバスへの連絡もやたら良いので、町へ出て、買い物や、お茶のみをする時間はありませんが、短い時間でも3島巡りできるこのようなツアーでなければ、八重山諸島の旅行には来られなかったでしょう。
旅程そのものも、それを実行する側の機動力もあり、以前体験談等で見かけた客の声も反映され改善されているように見えましたし、素晴らしくよくできたツアーだと思いました。
今回は、下見を兼ねての一人旅でしたが、こんなに良いなら夫も連れて、また行きたいです。

Really great tour. We got picked up on time from a hotel near to where we were staying which was very handy and well organised. Our guide, Levin, had perfect English, was very helpful and informative and made the tour extremely enjoyable. There were plenty of break stops along the way and the bus was very comfortable. Due to unforeseen traffic our itinerary changed however this was handled really well and we still got to make each stop as planned. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great but Levin still made each stop fun and interesting. The lunch provided was excellent food and we got to experience the traditional Japanese culture. We didn't have much expectations for the 4D experience but it was actually brilliant and we really enjoyed it. Overall it was a really great trip and we would highly recommend it to anyone who's thinking of doing the Mount Fuji tour.

I had only done hiking before, so I was a bit anxious about my first real trekking experience. However, we started by walking along a flat trolley path, and along the way, we encountered Japanese macaques and sika deer, which made the journey feel quite relaxed. I thought, "Oh? If it's like this, it should be easy!" But that turned out to be a big mistake.
After a while, it turned into real mountain climbing, and there were tough moments. Thankfully, our guide took breaks at just the right times and stopped to explain various things, which helped me manage to complete the trek. Looking back now, climbing the corridor to see the Jomon Sugi was really tough on my knees. But it was worth the effort, as I finally got to see the Jomon Sugi, which I had longed to see.
By the way, this tour had a direct bus to the trailhead, so I was able to rest a bit on the bus, which helped conserve my energy. If you go on your own, you would have to take a local bus, and depending on the time of year, like in July, there seemed to be quite a line at the bus stop. Not everyone waiting could get on the bus when it arrived, so there might be some waiting time. I think it's easier for first-timers to go with a tour.
今までハイキング程度しか行ったことがなく、初の本格的なトレッキングだったんで最初は不安だったんですが、まずはず~っと平坦なトロッコ道を歩きつつ、途中にはヤクザルやヤクシカも出てきて、穏やかに進んでいったので「あれ?こんな感じだったら全然余裕やん!。」って思っていたんですがこれが大きな間違いでした。。。途中から本当の[山登り]になっていき、しんどい時もありましたが、ガイドさんが絶妙のタイミングで休憩をとってくれたり、また立ち止まっていろいろな説明をしてくれたので、なんとか歩き切ることができました。今、思い返してみると最後の縄文杉を見るための回廊を上るのが膝がガクガクで本当に大変でした。でも頑張った甲斐があり、念願だった縄文杉を見ることができました。ちなみのこのツアーは登山口まで直行のバスだったので、睡眠もバスの中で若干できて体力温存にはなりました。自分達で行くとなると路線バスに乗るしかなく、7月という時期にもよるかもしれませんがバス停の前を通るとかなり並んでいてバスが来たからといって並んでる人全員が乗り切れてるわけじゃなく、待ち時間も多少あったみたいでした。初めての人は無難にツアーで行った方が楽だと思います。

Long day on bus from Tokyo. Mt Fugi socked in with fog so unable to see any of it. Guide was pretty good but sometimes hard to understand. She had a full bus and the 3 hrs to try to keep people interested. Gondola and boat ride were fun but also fog prevented much views. Ride back on bullet train was fun. Lunch was mediocre.

I participated with my family and friends. Since I don't have a regular exercise routine, I honestly found it tough at first, but with the guide's assistance, I was able to complete the journey safely. I was moved by the sight of Jomon Sugi, which is completely different from what I see on TV, and I felt a sense of awe.
This is an activity that I believe everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.
家族と友人と参加しました。
日頃運動の習慣が無いため、正直初めは辛く感じましたが、ガイドさんのアシストで無事に旅を終えることができました。
テレビで見るのとは全く違う縄文杉の姿に感動し、畏怖の感情を覚えました。
一生に一度は体験していただきたいアクティビティです。

I participated with two friends.
In other tours, there is usually a bus transfer, so we chose this tour.
You can go directly to the trailhead, allowing for an early start to the trekking.
There were many small but thoughtful gestures, such as the miso soup service during lunch and the rental of simple cushions.
Thank you very much.
友人と三人で参加しました。
他のツアーだと、一度バスの乗り換えなどがあるので、のちらのツアーに参加させていただきました。
そのまま登山口に入れるので、早めにトレッキングに臨めます。
お弁当の時のおみそしるのサービスや、簡易ザブトンのレンタルなど、小さいけれども嬉しい心遣いが沢山ありました。
ありがとうございます。

I participated in a cycling course on Taketomi Island. It was hot, but the kids really enjoyed collecting star sand at Star Sand Beach, playing on the beach as much as they wanted, and visiting the village. It was also nice to be able to choose the time for the return ferry.
竹富島でのサイクリングコースに参加しました
暑かったですが、星砂海岸で星砂集めたり、ビーチで好きなだけ遊んだり、集落にお邪魔したりで、子供たちはとても楽しんでいました
帰りのフェリーの時間が選べるのも良かったです

On the day of the tour, there was a tremendous thunderstorm, but the guide was very careful and took us to our destination, Taiko Rock. I was really happy because I only had one chance to do this. This tour offers rentals for shoes, raincoats, and backpacks, which are all items that would be a waste to buy since they are only used once, so I appreciated that. At the port where we arrived, they helped us with sizing for the shoes and saved us the trouble of going to the rental shop.
当日はすごい雷雨でしたが、慎重にガイド下さり、目的地の太鼓岩までも連れていってもらえました。
1日しかチャンスがなかったので本当に嬉しかったです。
このツアーは靴、合羽、リュックがレンタルできるのですが、どれも一度きりの利用で買うのは値段的に勿体無いものなので、それも有り難かったです。
到着した港で靴などサイズ合わせしてもらえ、レンタルショップに行く手間も省けました。

The place I really wanted to visit on my first trip to Okinawa was the Churaumi Aquarium. I was staying with friends who live in Okinawa, so while they were at work, I planned to enjoy the aquarium. However, I found out that it was farther from Naha than I expected and there were no transportation options available. I signed up for a bus tour that offered a longer stay at the Churaumi Aquarium, and about four hours flew by in no time. Since other facilities were located far away, if you spend too long enjoying the aquarium, you might not have enough time to explore everything else. I got so captivated by the large tanks that I ended up rushing to the dolphin show!
初めての沖縄でとにかく行きたかったところ!
それは美ら海水族館でした。
沖縄在住の友達の所へお世話になっていたので彼らが仕事中、水族館を満喫しようと思ってたのですが、思いのほか那覇から遠いことと、交通手段が無い?事でした。
バスツアーの中でも美ら海水族館の滞在時間が長いこちらのツアーに申し込み、約4時間、あっという間でしたね。
水族館以外の施設が離れたところにあったりして、水族館をあまり長く堪能してると回りきれなくなってしまいます。
私は巨大水槽に見入ってしまい大慌てでイルカショーへ向かうはめになってしまいました。

The trekking started with a mix of tension and excitement! From the long trolley path to the steep mountain trails, there were moments when it was tough and I felt like giving up, but the emotion I felt when I saw the Jomon Sugi at the final destination is unforgettable. I was deeply healed by the mystical natural scenery and air! Being able to visit the long-desired Yakushima has become a lifelong memory.
緊張とワクワクで始まったトレッキング‼️
長いトロッコ道から、アップダウンの激しい山道。キツくて、心が折れそうになる瞬間もあったけど、最終目的地の縄文杉を見た時の感動は忘れられません☺️
それから、神秘的な自然の景色や空気にとてもとても癒されました‼️
憧れの屋久島にこれて、一生の思い出になりました^^/

In the morning, I took a bus tour around Ishigaki Island. The bus tour departed from the bus terminal near the remote island terminal.
The tour was led by a charming elderly guide who made the time fly with his interesting stories.
Although the tour was brief, it allowed us to greatly enjoy the natural beauty of Ishigaki Island, which was truly refreshing for someone living in the city.
Unfortunately, the glass-bottom boat experience was disappointing as the seabed visible through the glass was all green, and it didn't showcase the true colors of the underwater scenery. If you want to enjoy the underwater world, snorkeling might be a better option.
For lunch, we had hamburgers made with Ishigaki beef, which might be great for hamburger lovers (though I wasn't that impressed...).
After finishing the bus tour around Ishigaki Island, I walked from the bus terminal to the remote island terminal and took a ferry to Taketomi Island around 3 PM.
On Taketomi Island, I rode in an ox cart, which was the main attraction. I had the chance to ride in an ox cart pulled by a famous ox named Pīsuke, who has appeared on television.
The guide, who also drove the ox cart, was entertaining, and even though it was my first time riding in one, I enjoyed a leisurely tour around the village.
I would love to visit Ishigaki again.
午前中は、石垣島一周バスツアー。
バスツアーは、離島ターミナル側のバスターミナルからの出発でした。
バスツアーは、おじいちゃん名物ガイドさんで話しが面白かったのであっと言う間の時間でした。
バスツアーでは、足早ですが石垣島の自然を大いに楽しめますし、都会で生活している者にとっては本当に癒されます。
残念なのはグラスボート、ガラスから見える海底は全て緑色で、本来の色合いを楽しめるものではなかったので、海中を楽しむのならシュノーケリングなどになってしまうのかなぁ。
昼食は、多分(笑)、石垣牛の挽き肉を使ったハンバーグで、ハンバーグ好きには良いかも知れませんね(私はそれほどでも…汗)。
石垣島一周バスツアーを終え、バスターミナルから離島ターミナルへ徒歩で移動し、15時くらいから竹富島に渡りました。
竹富島では、牛車が目的で牛車に乗ってきました。
牛車は、テレビにも出演した事のある牛のピー助が引く牛車に乗る事が出来ました。
牛車を運転するガイド兼任の方のトークも面白く初めて牛車に乗りましたがゆったりと動き村一周も長閑な時間を過ごせました。
石垣にはもう一度行ってみたいと思っています。

The tour began with a pickup in front of DFS near Omoromachi Station on the Yui Rail. This time, we visited the northern part of the island, which is not typically included in personal travel itineraries.
On the day of the tour, there were only five participants, making it a very small group. However, this allowed for a well-organized and smooth experience.
We were fortunate with the weather, and the views at Cape Hedo and Daichi Forest Park were beautiful. Although we walked and worked up a sweat, we were able to enjoy the sightseeing with a refreshing feeling (though it was quite hot!).
For lunch, we had a buffet at Okuma Private Beach & Resort, which offered a wide variety of fruits and desserts, including cakes. It was satisfying even when including the regular meal.
Next, we visited the Churaumi Aquarium (the last stop was Nago's Okashi Goten). Although I had been there once before, I didn't have time to explore the entire aquarium, so this time I focused on feeding the whale sharks and watching the dolphin show, which I missed last time.
The dolphin show was shorter than I expected, which was a bit disappointing, but the content was enjoyable, and I wished it had lasted longer.
Given its short duration, I felt a bit let down.
If I could wish for anything, it would be to have a little more time for strolling around the Churaumi Aquarium.
Nonetheless, I was very satisfied with the northern sightseeing experience.
ツアーの始まりは、ゆいレールのおもろまち駅近くのDFS前でのピックアップでした。
今回は、個人の旅行では中々行かない北部の観光です。
当日は、5名でのバスツアーとなり、非常に参加人数の少ないツアーでしたが、人数が少ないだけに時間行動がしっかりできてスムーズなツアーでした。
お天気にも恵まれ、辺戸岬、大石林山も景観が良く歩いて汗はかくものの爽やかな気持ちで観光出来ました(しかし、暑かったぁ〜苦笑)。
昼食は、オクマプライベートビーチ&リゾートでのビュッフェですがフルーツやケーキなどのスイーツの種類が多く、通常の食事を含めても満足出来るものでした。
次に美ら海水族館でした(最後は、名護のお菓子御殿)。
一度行った事があるものの水族館全体を見回る時間は無いので、今回はジンベイザメの餌やりと前回見られなかったイルカショーに絞り、見て来ました。
イルカショー、思っていたよりショーの時間が短く拍子抜けでしたが、ショーの内容は楽しく、もっとやって貰いたかった。
短かっただけに残念でした。
美ら海水族館は、欲を言えば、散策の時間をもう少しとって貰えると良いと思います。
それにしても北部観光、満足です。
Dear Jun,
Thank you very much for participating in the bus tour organized by Jumbo Tours. We appreciate the wonderful photos and comments you shared about each sightseeing spot. I apologize for the delay in responding to your message.
As you mentioned, sightseeing in northern Okinawa can take a considerable amount of travel time, so it’s understandable that individual travelers may find it challenging to visit. The trekking course must have been tough in the climate of late July, but it seems you were able to enjoy a satisfying workout, and the views in your photos are indeed breathtaking!
I apologize for the short time you felt you had at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Given the large size of the facility and the scheduled dolphin show times, it seems you may not have been able to explore at a leisurely pace. We will strive to improve our guiding services and take your feedback into account for future tour planning.
Thank you very much for your valuable insights. We hope you will consider using our bus tours again on your next visit to Okinawa. We look forward to welcoming you back.

この度は、ジャンボツアーズ主催のバスツアーへご参加頂き、誠にありがとうございました。
それぞれの観光地についてステキなお写真とコメントを頂きありがとうございます。
お礼の返信が遅くなってしまい大変失礼しました。
じゅん様のおっしゃる通り沖縄北部の観光は移動時間もかかる為、個人のお客様は
なかなか行かれる方も少ないかと存じます。
7月後半の気候の中、トレッキングコースはハードだったのではないでしょうか?
しかし気持ちのいい汗をかいて満足して頂いたようで、お写真を見ても絶景ですよね!
美ら海水族館でのお時間が短く感じられたのは申し訳ございません。
館内が広いのとイルカショーの時間が決められていることでゆっくりまわる事が
できなかったのではないかとお察しします。
今後、ガイド案内の向上に努めるとともに新たなツアー構成の参考にさせて頂きます。
貴重なご意見誠にありがとうございました。
次回沖縄へお越しの際も、弊社のバスツアーをぜひご利用くださいませ。
又のご来沖を心よりお待ちしております。

Dear any seat ok,
Thank you for participating in our tour.
Many people tend to only visit Shirakawa-go, but the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, which comprise two regions (three locations), offer completely different experiences. We created this tour with the hope that you would enjoy both. Our staff is delighted to hear that you had a great time.
From early June to early November, we travel to Shirakawa-go via the Hakusan Shirakawa-go White Road. We are glad you were able to enjoy the untouched nature created by one of the world's most famous heavy snowfall areas, which can only be experienced for five months of the year.
We are very pleased to have been able to assist in making your precious day of travel enjoyable, and we appreciate your kind words about your high level of satisfaction.
If you have the opportunity, please do visit the Hokuriku region again.

この度は弊社ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
世界遺産:白川郷・五箇山の合掌造り集落は白川郷だけご覧になる方が多いのですが、2地域(3ヶ所)合わせての世界遺産となり趣もまったく異なりますので、是非両方を堪能していただきたいとの思いから造成したツアーです。楽しんでいただけようでスタッフ一同喜んでおります。
また、6月上旬~11月上旬は白山白川郷ホワイトロードを通って白川郷へ向かいます。一年で5か月間だけ、限られた期間のみ堪能できる世界有数の豪雪地帯によって作られた手付かずの大自然も楽しんでいただけたようで幸いです。
貴重な旅の一日のお手伝いができ、また満足度が高いとのお言葉もいただき大変うれしく思っております。
また機会がございましたら、是非北陸へお越しくださいませ。
