All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I don't drive, so it was great that I could explore areas that are not accessible by monorail by car. The aquarium could have been open for a little longer.

自分は運転しないので、モノレールでいけない範囲を車で回っていただけたのは良かったです。
水族館の時間がもう少し長くてもよかったかもしれません。

Since there was a family member who got seasick, we decided to skip the island hopping and only took a tour of Taketomi Island. The high-speed boat ride was quick. The water buffalo cart was also very nice, but there were some photo stops that were a bit of a hassle. I think it's unnecessary when riding a bicycle...

I believe a bicycle is the best way to explore the town. Even though it was March, it was hot. Both Kondoi Beach and Kaiji Beach were beautiful and impressive. It's a bit more than a 10-minute bike ride, but definitely worth it! If you make a reservation in advance, the guidance is quicker, so I recommend checking the weather and booking ahead.

船酔いする家族がいたので、離島巡りは断念し竹富島のみのツアーでした。
高速船で、あっという間です。
水牛車もとても良かったですが、所々写真撮影があって、ちょっと面倒くさかったです。
自転車乗る時のは不要だと思います…

街中を巡るなら自転車がベストだと思います。
3月とは言え、暑かったので。
コンドイ浜、カイジ浜共に綺麗で感動しました。自転車で10分以上ですが、ぜひ！
予約しておくと案内が早いので、お天気を見て予約をオススメします。

The water buffalo cart on Taketomi Island takes you around the village, offering a different charm compared to Yubu Island, and it was enjoyable (*´∇｀*). After that, I went to Nishizaki Pier, Koidoi Beach, and Hoshizuna no Hama to take photos... I wanted to take my time at my own pace, so I chose cycling! It was a bit sweaty, but it felt really nice! However, be careful in the village as the gravel can catch your tires and make you almost fall!

こちら竹富島の水牛車は集落をまわるので、由布島とまた違った赴きがあり、楽しかったです(*´∇｀*)
その後は西桟橋・コイドイビーチ・星砂の浜へ写真を撮りに…自分のペースで時間を使いたいので、サイクリングを選びました！少し汗ばむくらいでしたが、とても気持ち良かったです！
でも集落内は砂利でタイヤをとられて転けそうになったりしたので、要注意です！

I took a day trip from Kansai. Since my evening flight was late, I joined the tour in the afternoon. It was my first time in Ishigaki Island, so it was great to quickly visit the highlights and get a sense of the overall experience.

Unfortunately, it rained, but both the guide and the driver were very kind, providing umbrellas, which made the day enjoyable. There were also others who participated alone, just like me.

I was able to reach the meeting point at the bus terminal by taking a local bus, and arriving on a flight around noon worked out perfectly. If I have the chance again, I would like to stay a bit longer next time.

関西からの１人日帰りです。夜の便が遅いので午後から日帰りで参加しました。石垣島は初めてだったので、見所をさっとまわれて、全体感がつかめてよかったです。
あいにくの雨だったのですが、ガイドさんも運転手さんもとても親切で、傘もご用意いただき、楽しく過ごすことができました。
私と同様１人で参加されている方もいらっしゃいました。
集合場所のバスターミナルまでは路線バスで行くことができ、お昼頃到着する飛行機で行くと、ちょうどよかったです。
また機会があったら、今後はもう少しゆっくり滞在したいと思います。

During my last trip, I visited Cape Hedo. However, due to bad weather, I couldn't climb Mount Oishi. This time, I was fortunate to join a great tour. I had fun all day long. Next year, I want to participate in a different tour.

前回旅行した際、辺戸岬にはいったのですが。天気が悪かったので大石林山には登れませんでした。今回良いツァーに恵まれました。一日中楽しかったです。来年は別のツァーで参加したいです。

This is definitely a great way to start your tour in Tokyo. The bus ride over the bridge to Tokyo Bay is exhilarating! Just make sure you sit all the way at the front because the wind on the high way is no joke. There are multiple buses so if you want to see more stuff you can easily switch. The price is about the same if you were to take the underground metro, but you get a guided tour instead on the bus! Thanks for a great experience!!

Easy to buy tickets and very friendly staff, but the audio guide was really uninteresting, almost boring. Often landmarks were discussed after they had already passed out of view. Stops are spaced very far apart, and not necessarily where you would want to get off. It's a reasonable way to spend a sunny day but expect to take the subway to get where you want to go.

I had a wonderfully relaxing time in Ishigaki and exploring Taketomi Island. I definitely want to go back. Next time, I’d like to experience the night and early morning life on Taketomi Island!

石垣宿泊～竹富島観光
すごくのんびりした時間を過ごせます。
絶対また行きたくなります。
今度は夜＆早朝の竹富島生活をしてみたいな‼

I took advantage of an unexpected long weekend for a solo trip to Okinawa.
I want to go to the aquarium! I want to see the blue ocean!
...But I thought I couldn't go because I don't have a car...
However, the sightseeing bus took me there! ☺️

Since the Yui Rail only runs partially,
I was really glad to have the sightseeing bus!
I had a great time!

急にとれた連休を利用しての沖縄一人旅。
水族館に行きたい！青い海がみたい！
…しかし車がないから行けないか…
と思っていたのですが、観光バスさんが連れてってくれました☺️

ゆいレールは一部しか走っていないので、
観光バスがあって本当に良かった！
満喫できました

I went on a family trip to Kanazawa for the first time. Since it was a special occasion, I decided to join this tour to see the World Heritage site of Shirakawa-go, which is not easy to visit often. The tour allowed us to take our time at each landmark, and we were able to see everything leisurely. The guide provided clear explanations in two languages, making it an enjoyable trip. I would like to use this service again.

初めて金沢に家族旅行で行きました。せっかくなので中々行けない白川郷の世界遺産を見ようと思って本ツアーに参加しました。
各名所もしっかり時間を、取ったツアーでゆっくり見れました。
ガイドの二ヶ国を使いわかりやすく説明してくれて楽しい旅になりました。
また利用したいと思いました。

Our driver Hiroshi was a wonderful guide, and the Toyota Crown he drove was so beautiful.
Hiroshi showed up with white gloves on him, and had a name tag with my name on the dashboard.
He treated us if we were celebrities or something.
He was very knowledgeable, kind and had a great hospitality.
I would say that the price they charged for 4hours of this service is very reasonable. We wil recommend this service for anyone who comes Kyoto for the first time!

Okinawa has high bus fares and limited service, making it difficult to explore on your own, but this tour was great as it offered affordable prices and fun sightseeing spots. The only downside was the extremely short stay at Nago Pineapple Park. When there are too many stops, it feels rushed at each location, so I think a bit more time overall would be appreciated.

沖縄は路線バスの運賃が高く本数も少ないので、あちこち個人で巡るのは難儀ですが、こちらのツアーはお手頃価格で楽しい観光スポットを回ってくれるので良かったです。唯一、ナゴパイナップルパークでの滞在時間が極端に少なかったのが残念。立ち寄る場所が多すぎると、どの場所も駆け足になってしまうので、全般的に若干ゆとりが欲しいかなという感じもします。

Our group of 4 had a great time with our guide Masa.
We wanted to view Mt Fuji but the weather only allowed us to see mostly the base.
Masa customized the itinerary so we could make the most of the tour, we saw Mt Fuji base, Oshino Hakkai ponds, Kirin Whiskey Distillery and the Cherry Blossom Festival in Matsuda.

We highly recommend this private tour :)

I traveled alone to Yakushima. I stayed near Miyanoura Port, and thanks to the shuttle bus, I was able to get to the Arakawa Trailhead. From there, the guide took regular breaks, so everything went smoothly. Even though I was alone, the guide kept me company, and other participants also chatted with me, so I had no issues!

1人旅で屋久島にいきました。宮之浦港付近に宿をとっていましたが、送迎バスのおかげで荒川登山口へ。そこからは、ガイドさんがこまめに休憩をとりながら進んでくれたので何事もなくつけました。1人でしたが、ガイドさんが話相手になってくださったり、ほかの参加者の方が声をかけてくれたりするので問題なかったです！

we had so much fun in oshino ninja village.the tourist guide is very knowledgeable.he gives us additional time to stroll around in each of our sight seeing landmarks.the lunch was superb!

the tour was very informative.our tourist guide was very helpful and friendly,with a sense of humour.not a dull moment with him.the best tour in japan so far!

Joining the tour that efficiently visits the three islands was definitely the right choice. The boat to Iriomote Island was quite rocky, so it might be a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. I chose the rental bicycle plan, and since I could choose the return boat, I was able to explore the island at a leisurely pace without worrying about time.

効率よく3島を周れるツアーで参加して大正解でした。
西表島に向かう船はかなり揺れたので酔い止め持参で行った方が良いかもしれません。
レンタサイクルプランを選びましたが、帰りの船が選べたので、時間を気にせずゆっくり島内を周ることができました。

This is a tour that allows you to efficiently explore Ishigaki Island. It seems that March has a lot of rain, but somehow the weather held up, and the sea was beautiful. Sitting on the left side of the bus offers a better view of the ocean. The lunch was a bit disappointing, but everything else was very satisfying. The female guide also included jokes from time to time, making it a very enjoyable experience. If I have the opportunity to go to Ishigaki again, I would like to participate.

石垣島を効率よく周ることができるツアーです。
3月は雨が多いようなのですが、なんとか天気ももち、海が綺麗でした。
バスは左側に座った方が海がよく見えます。
昼食は少し期待はずれでしたが、その他は大満足です。女性のガイドさんも時折ジョークを交えながらでとても楽しく過ごせました。また石垣に行く機会があれば参加したいです。

As a person who doesn't drive, I found the bus tour to be very helpful and enjoyable. The fact that the guide provides information through headphones is also great. I think if we had a bit more time at American Village, we could have had dinner there.

ペーパードライバーなのでバスツアーがあると大変助かり、楽しめました。
イヤホンでガイドしてくれるのもとても良いです。
アメリカンヴィレッジでもう少し時間があると夕食がとれるかなぁーと思います。

Taiji Endo san was our tour guide who provided us (a group of 8 people) excellent service. He accommodated our requests due to plan changes and suggested some fabulous ideas to our visits in Hakone. We all enjoyed every moments and had lot of laughter and good stories from Taiji.

We highly recommend Taiji and Veltra for your next visits to Japan.

I visited Ishigaki and Iriomote Island. At first, I thought it would be impossible to cover this in one day. It was a tour packed with highlights. It was great that we could choose the return ferry time from Taketomi Island to Ishigaki. We were blessed with wonderful weather, which made it perfect.

初石垣〜西表島でした。初めではこの内容を1日で回るのは無理でしょう。いいとこ取りがギッシリ詰まった内容の濃いツアーでした。帰りの竹富島〜石垣の船の時間が選べるのでよかったです。お天気に恵まれて最高でした。

We found the tour really easy to find and pay for online. The details of the tour and pick up area were emailed to us immediately which helped us work out where to go etc really quickly and easily.
We found the pick up spot easy in the morning of the tour. Our tour guide was really friendly and helpful. He was English speaking but also spoke fluent Japanese. The group was only small so it was really easy to talk to the guide and ask questions, and I found him to be quite knowledgeable about the area and the sites we went to. He was wonderful with the guests and really took an interest in each of our needs as there were guests with a baby and an older couple with some mobility restrictions.
We found the river cruise a little boring but I think that was because the speakers may not have been working where we were sitting so we couldn’t hear anything.
Overall the tour was fantastic, it was a great way to see the sights of Tokyo and to work out which places you want to visit again, I only wish we did this tour on our first day in Tokyo.
The lunch was delicious and definitely worth adding to the tour.
Thank you so much I will be recommending this to our friends that visit Tokyo!!

There was a large bus with a driver and a guide, but I happened to be the only participant. The guide was friendly and shared various stories about Ishigaki as if talking to a friend. When I mentioned that I would be driving around the next day with a rental car, they also gave me some advice.

大きなバスに運転手さん、ガイドさん付でしたが、たまたま、私１名の参加でした。
ガイドさんは、友人と話しているかのように、気さくで石垣の色々な話をしてくれました。
次の日のレンタカーで回るというと、アドバイスもしてくれました。

I have participated in this course several times because it's my favorite. You can enjoy a stroll at Ida Beach, a jungle cruise, a glass-bottom boat tour, and a simple local cuisine lunch. The weather at Ida Beach on that day was perfect, and the scenery was wonderful. We were able to leisurely stroll along the quiet beach, almost having it to ourselves. Unfortunately... According to the guide, this tour will end at the end of March. This is the only tour that includes Ida Beach, so please find a way to continue it!

このコースはお気に入りで何回か参加しています。
イダの浜散策、ジャングルクルーズ、グラスボートの観光と素朴な地元料理の昼食で楽しめます。
この日の「イダの浜」は天気も最高で素晴らしい景色でした。
そしてほぼ貸切状態で静かなビーチをのんびりと散策ができました。
残念なのは．．．
ガイドさんによるとこのツアーは３月いっぱいで終了してしまうそうです。
このツアーが唯一「イダの浜」を含んだツアーなのでなんとか継続してください！！

I left my family behind and went on a solo trip to Yakushima from Aichi Prefecture. I thought about going with my spouse someday, so I signed up for a guided tour for a day trip trekking to Jomon Sugi as a preliminary visit.

I felt good from early morning, and I was prepared to deal with the cold as long as I kept moving. I left the Anbo bus stop and headed to the trailhead just after 4:30 AM.

After that, the seven members participating in the same guide M's tour gathered, and we set off. However, shortly after, two people had to withdraw at the bridge of the trolley train where there were no handrails for various reasons.

As a result, four women and I, a total of five people, followed guide M as we made our way along the trolley path. The explanations at key points were well-timed with short breaks, and surprisingly, we reached Jomon Sugi without much trouble.

The weather was absolutely perfect, and the observation deck was not crowded, allowing us to view the 7,000-year-old tree from various angles. I felt a sense of presence and dignity in the magnificent tree, witnessing the power of nature firsthand.

The distant mountains on the way there and back were also clearly visible, making it a very good tour.

However, by the time we arrived at the accommodation above Mos Burger, I had injured the muscles behind my knees to the point where I could hardly climb the stairs. Thanks to M's advice on recovery methods, I was able to return home without much impact the next day.

家族を置いて愛知県から単独旅行で屋久島に旅しに行きました。いつかは夫婦でと思い、下見兼ねて今回ガイド付きツアーで縄文杉日帰りトレッキングに申し込みました。

早朝から体調も良く、寒さは動けばなんとかなると覚悟して早朝4:30過ぎに安房バス停から登山口まで移動。

その後同じガイドMさんのツアーに参加するメンバー7名が集い、いざ出発するがしばらくして手すりないトロッコ列車の橋の所で2名が訳あって棄権。

結果、女性4名と私1名の計5名がガイドのMさんを追うようにトロッコ道をグイグイと進みました。要所要所の説明を、小休憩兼ねて程よいタイミングで入れていただき長いようで意外とあっけなく、無事に縄文杉まで到達しました。

とにかく天気は最高で、展望台も混雑なく色々な角度から7000年の歴史の産物を見学しました。壮大な樹木には何か宿ってる気迫というか威厳を感じ、自然の力を目の当たりにしました。

行き帰りの遠方の山々もハッキリと拝めとても良いツアーでした。

ただ、モスバーガー上の宿に着いた時には階段上がれないほど膝裏の筋を痛めてました。
Mさんに聞いた疲労回復法で翌日の帰路には影響もほぼなく無事に帰宅出来ました。

We unfortunately were not able to see Mt Fuji on our tour. We instead had a wonderful tour and tasting at the Hakushu Distillary. I highly recommend!
Finished the day at the hot springs...bliss!

Tour was overall good with English speaking Guides. All the activities were good with nice handling. May be bullet train option will be better to choose as we were running quite behind the schedule due to some block on the road...

Guides were excellent... if you are on short trip this is excellent tour to get acquainted with the main attractions in Tokyo.

It was a packed day full of activities, and I had a great time. The only disappointing part was the lunch. Honestly, it wasn't tasty. I would have appreciated at least being able to have a warm bento.

盛り沢山の内容で、１日楽しめました。
唯一、残念だったのはランチです。
正直、おいしくありませんでした。せめてあったかいお弁当を食べれるとありがたいです。

It was a family trip at the end of February. The weather was cloudy and windy, so it was cold, but I was satisfied with the experience. When crossing to Yufu Island by water buffalo, we could also hear the sanshin, which created a wonderful atmosphere. It was nice to see the change in the water surface on the way there and back. Since it was a tour of the islands, there wasn't much time to look at souvenirs, but it became a great memory. The travel agency's arrangements were smooth and well done.

2月末の家族旅行でした。天候は曇りで風もあったため寒かったですが、内容は満足です。
由布島に水牛で渡るときは三線も聞けて雰囲気は最高でした。また行きと帰りで水面が変わるのも良かったです。三島巡りなのでお土産など見る時間はあまりなかったですが、いい思い出になりました。
旅行会社さんの段取りもスムーズで良かったです
