All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I was the only Japanese person in the group. I started by visiting Kumamoto Castle, which has changed quite a bit since before the earthquake. At Kusasenri, there were remnants of controlled burns here and there, and the aftermath of the burns might not be very pretty. The basashi (raw horse meat) rice bowl at the drive-in was delicious. The coffee was brewed using a unique method with roasted beans, but I gave up due to the long line.

At the Aso roadside station, you can buy local specialties and vegetables. There is a Kumamon monument at the Aso roadside station, and you can see a statue of Usopp from One Piece at the nearby Aso Station. Unfortunately, the area around the crater is off-limits due to a helicopter accident, so the caldera will have to wait for next time. I am very grateful to the female tour guide and the driver for their hard work, which allowed us to return early, and they also recommended a dinner place. The tour guide's stories were very interesting. She speaks Chinese and Korean as well, so if you prefer only Japanese, you should consider expanding your options, but today's tour is enjoyable enough for Japanese participants as well. Since there is a lot of movement, it is more suited for those who want to see specific points rather than many sights.

日本人は私1人でした。熊本城をはじめにみて、震災前と大分変わっていました。
草千里は野焼きの跡が所々あり、野焼きの跡はあまり綺麗ではないかもしれません。ドライブインで馬刺し丼が美味しかったです。珈琲は焙煎したコーヒーを独自の製法で出していましたが、長蛇の列で断念しました。
道の駅阿蘇では特産品や野菜を買えます。道の駅阿蘇でくまモンのモニュメントが、向かいの阿蘇駅でワンピースのウソップの銅像がみれます。
残念ながら、ヘリコプター事故で火口周辺は立ち入り禁止、カルデラはまた次回。女性添乗員と、ドライバーが最後まで頑張ってくれて早めに帰ることができ、夕食のお店も教えてくれて大変感謝です。添乗員さんのお話がとても面白かったです。中国語、韓国語も喋るので、日本語だけを希望する場合は選択肢を拡げるべきですが、今日のツアーは日本人にも充分楽しめます。移動が多いので、数見たいではなく、ピンポイントで見たい人向けです。

The weather was unfortunately bad, but once I started walking, I didn't feel the cold, and it felt just right. The scenery, the characters, and those scenes from the Studio Ghibli films! I wondered if they were inspired by this nature as I walked, and it was so much fun.

あいにくの天気でしたが、歩き始めると寒さは感じず、ちょうど良い感じでした。
ジブリ作品でみたあの景色、あのキャラクター、あの作品のあのシーン！この自然から思いついたのかしら？なんて考えながら歩くのがとっても楽しかったです。

Climbing during the off-peak season allowed us to listen to the explanations at a leisurely pace, take our time with photos, and there was no waiting for the restroom, which was fantastic! I was very satisfied to reach Jomon Sugi safely, and the guide's professional timing for our return was impressive. The coffee and cocoa prepared by the guide were exceptional in taste.

閑散期の登山は説明をゆっくり聞く事ができ、写真もゆっくり撮れ、トイレで並ぶこともなくて最高でした！
無事縄文杉まで辿り着く事ができて大満足でしたし、帰りの時間にぴったりとガイドしてくださるプロの技もあっぱれでした。
ガイドさんが用意してくださったコーヒーとココアの美味しさは格別でした。

It was an alarm-level heavy snowfall for several consecutive days, but there was also a certain warmth to the dazzling snow. The scenery was truly wonderful. I was able to enjoy a delicious local lunch and was very satisfied. However, waiting for the bus to the observation deck took some time. There were many shops in Takayama, and I was able to enjoy myself without any prior research.

警報級の連日の豪雪でしたが、どことなく温かさも感じる最高な眩しい積雪でした。
その景観はとても素晴らしかったです。
ご当地昼食も美味しく満足に頂けました。
あと、展望台へのバス待ちがロス時間でした。
高山もお店多く下調べなくとも楽しめました。

There was one Japanese person, and the rest were from various countries.

The Kamado Hell and Umi Hell in Beppu are impressive onsens that you can't enter, especially for first-timers. The pudding and onsen eggs at Kamado Hell are delicious.

At the African Safari, the animals were just lounging around, so it wasn't very thrilling.

In Yufuin, I enjoyed walking around and eating, trying the grilled shiitake mushrooms, fried chicken, and croquettes recommended by the guide, which were exquisite. It seems they only accept cash.

After soaking in the onsen, my skin became smooth.

Thank you for a wonderful day!

日本人1人の、あとは多国籍でした。
別府のかまど地獄と海地獄ははじめての人には迫力のある入ることの出来ないおんせんです。かまど地獄のプリンと温泉たまごが美味しいです。
アフリカンサファリは動物たちがもうのんびりしちゃって迫力なかったです。
由布院は食べ歩きで、ガイドさんに教えて貰った椎茸焼きと唐揚げ、コロッケを食べ、絶品でした。現金のみの対応のようです。
温泉に入り、お肌スベスベになりました。
1日ありがとうございました。

I was taken to a place that is quite difficult to go to alone, and I had a valuable experience. However, the guide's rapid-fire talking was exhausting. There were many inbound foreign tourists on the tour, and the guide spoke a lot in English, but the pronunciation wasn't very clear, which was a bit concerning. Overall, the tour itself was good.

なかなか１人では行けない場所に連れて行ってもらい、貴重な体験が出来ました。
ただ、ガイドの人が弾丸トークで疲れました。ツアー客がインバウンドの外国人が多くて、英語でたくさん話していたのですが、発音がきれいでなくて、それも気になりました。
ツアー自体は良かったです。

The guide explained the same thing in three languages: Japanese, English, and Chinese. I was able to learn an efficient way to get around Shirakawa-go.

ガイドの方が同じことを日本語、英語、中国語の３か国語で説明してくれます。
白川郷の効率的な周り方教えてもらえました。

I realized how amazing the people working at the airport are! It's because of their daily efforts that we can safely and enjoyably board airplanes, and I can't help but feel grateful. I understood well during this tour how both jobs that directly interact with passengers and those that don't are essential. The facilities also made me feel the airport atmosphere, and I think those who love airplanes and airports were thrilled the entire time! The staff who guided us were fun and explained everything clearly, and I was delighted by their offers to help with photos! Lastly, when I bought some merchandise, I noticed the ANA logo on my credit card, and I was impressed when they said, "Thank you for always supporting us." I want to learn from their thoughtful consideration and friendly interactions. Thank you for everything! I look forward to being taken care of on the plane next time!

空港で働く方々の凄さがわかりました！日々の努力してくださっているからこそ私たちが安全に楽しく飛行機に乗れているんだと思うと頭が上がりません。直接乗客に関わる仕事もそうでない仕事も今回のツアーでよくわかりました。施設内も空港を感じられて飛行機や空港が好きな方は終始大興奮だったと思います！また案内してくださった係の方も楽しくわかりやすく教えてくださりましたし写真のお手伝いの声かけも嬉しかったです！最後にグッズを買いましたが私のクレジットにANAのロゴが付いていたのを見逃さず「いつもありがとうございます」とお声かけくださったのには脱帽でした。細やかな配慮と声かけ見習いたいです。こちらこそいつもありがとうございます！次は機内でお世話になります！

On the second day of my first solo trip, I had reserved this bus, and the seats were fairly spacious and comfortable. The bus guide was cheerful and spoke clearly, which made the experience very pleasant. The driver also greeted us every time, which was really nice!

初めての一人旅で2日目にこのバスを予約していたのですが、席もある程度広く居心地がよかったです。バスガイドさんも明るくハキハキとお話される方でとても心地よかったです。運転手さんも毎回声をかけてくれてとても良かったです！

It was an efficiently packed tour for the whole day. The photo is a commemorative shot with a water buffalo on Taketomi Island. It became a wonderful memory.

1日盛りだくさんのツアーで効率的に回れました。写真は竹富島での水牛さんとの記念撮影。良い思い出となりました。

这次旅行主要介绍了ANA航司的常见工种及相关知识，小孩很开心，开拓了眼界，我觉得讲解人员非常专业，热情。她对工作的热爱，使我们一群中国游客感同身受，今后还会选择ANA航班

The tour content was excellent. The guide, Ms. Li, was a wonderful person, and thanks to her, it was a fun trip! I participated as a Japanese person, and there was also Japanese interpretation available. There were a few other Japanese participants as well! I highly recommend it!

ツアーの内容も最高でした
ガイドのリさんがすごく素敵な方で
ガイドさんのおかげで楽しい旅行になりました！
日本人で参加しましたが日本語通訳もあり
数名他にも日本人もいました！
すごくおすすめです！

I was very satisfied that I could not only see the equipment used for training but also observe the actual training. I hope to never encounter an emergency while on a plane, but the training was extremely interesting. The hour flew by so quickly that I felt a bit sad when it was over.

訓練で使用する機材はもちろん、実際の訓練も見学できて大変満足です。
飛行機に乗っているときに緊急事態には遭遇したくないものですが、訓練は非常に興味深かったです。1時間あっという間に終わってしまいさみしいくらいでした。

Comments from a foreign traveler on a solo trip.
This was my first time participating in a day tour within Japan.

Since most of the participants were foreigners, the guide provided clear explanations in both Japanese and English without any breaks, covering everything from highlights to food, as well as important notes. There were also some interesting stories sprinkled in, making the otherwise dull travel time enjoyable. Thank you very much.

The female driver was also extremely safe, which was a relief. Those prone to motion sickness will be just fine.

Winter is certainly beautiful, but I believe summer will be lovely as well. I hope to come back someday.

一人旅の外国人からのコメント。
人生初めて日本国内で日帰りツアーに参加。

外国人は殆どのため、ガイドの方は休みなくずっと日本語と英語両方わかりやすく説明してくれました、見どころから食べものまで、注意事項などなど、ちょこちょこと面白い話も出てくる、つまらない移動時間は楽しく過ごしました、誠にありがとうございました。

女性の運転手さんも、超安全運転で助かります。車酔い人も全然ok。

冬はもちろん綺麗ですが、夏場もきっと綺麗だと思います。いつか、また来たいです。

The weather was great, and I had a very enjoyable time. The guide's explanations were easy to understand and interesting. The glass-bottom boat allowed us to see calm seas and crystal-clear water, where we encountered many fish. I won't forget the color of the ocean. It was a wonderful experience.

お天気にも恵まれ、とても楽しい時間でした。ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、面白かったです。グラスボートは海も穏やかで水も透き通っていてたくさんの魚たちに出会えました。海の色は忘れられません。とても素敵な体験でした。

The weather was great, and I had a lot of fun. The islands had their own unique characteristics, and the rural feel was also very appealing.

It would be amazing to see the Iriomote cat.

天気に恵まれてとても楽しかったです
その島々の特徴があり田舎感がまた魅力がありました


イリオモテヤマネコが見れたら最高です

This time we had a Nepali guide. He was very kind and actively engaged with us Japanese tourists, creating an atmosphere where we felt comfortable asking questions. The explanations during the car ride were mainly in English and Chinese, but he also conveyed important points in Japanese, so we had a completely enjoyable day without any difficulties. Thank you very much.

今回はネパール人のガイドさんでした。
親切な方で、日本人にも積極的にお声がけくださり、こちらからも質問等しやすい雰囲気でした。
車中での説明は英語、中国語がメインのようでしたが、大切なポイントは日本語でも伝えてくださったので全く不自由なく楽しい１日になりました。ありがとうございました。

The beaches of Taketomi Island are so beautiful that they seem unreal. The bus guide on Iriomote Island was interesting and great!

竹富島のビーチがこの世のものとは思えないほどキレイ。西表島のバスガイドさん、話が面白く良かったです！

It was very nice to cross to Yufu Island by water buffalo cart. The water buffalo were cute, and the explanations were easy to understand. It was a bit disappointing that there were few flowers since it wasn't the season for them, but I was able to take my time exploring places like the butterfly house. I think it would have been even better if I could have done some sightseeing on Iriomote Island as well.

水牛車で由布島へ渡るのがとても良かったです。
水牛も可愛いし、説明も分かりやすかったです。
由布島も季節ではなかったので花が少なかったのは残念でしたが、蝶々のハウスなどゆっくり見学する事が出来ました。
西表島の観光もできればもっとよかったと思いました。

The guide advised that if you want to have a meal at the Churaumi Aquarium within a limited time, it's more efficient to buy food from the shop rather than entering a restaurant. We enjoyed our meal on a bench before the aquarium tour and the dolphin show, and even with two and a half hours of sightseeing, we had plenty of fun. The view of Kouri Island was beautiful. It was a relief for me, as someone who doesn't drive, since it's a bit difficult to get to.

ガイドさんが限られた時間内で美ら海水族館で食事をとるならレストランに入るより売店で食べ物を購入した方が効率的とアドバイスして下さいました。
美ら海水族館の館内見学、イルカショー見学の前にベンチで食事、その後イルカショー見学で2時間半の見学時間でも充分楽しめました。古宇利島の景色は素敵でした。行きにくい場所なので車を運転しない私に有り難かったです

The driver was very kind, and it was fun. It was a fulfilling two hours. A group of ten adults on a friendly trip, everyone was satisfied.

運転手さんかとても親切で、楽しかった。
充実した２時間でした。
大人１０人の仲良し旅行、皆んな満足してくれました。

The bus guide shared enjoyable stories about Hokkaido, making the travel time both to and from the destination fun. At Asahiyama Zoo, we were blessed with good weather and had a great time walking slowly up the snowy slopes. I was especially looking forward to the penguin walk, and their adorable appearance did not disappoint. I was surprised by the unexpected size and behavior of the hippos (laughs). It was also a lot of fun to be so close to the animals, including the spotted seal, polar bears, and the muscular arms of the chimpanzees.

バスガイドさんは北海道の話しを楽しくお話ししてくれて往復共に楽しい移動時間でした。旭山動物園は天候にも恵まれ雪の坂道を焦らず歩きながら楽しい時間を過ごせました。楽しみにしていたペンギンの散歩も可愛らしい姿が見れました。予想外のカバの大きさや行動にびっくり（笑）他にもごまふアザラシやしろくまやチンパンジーの筋肉質な腕など動物との距離が近くてとても楽しかったです。

The guide was very polite and easy to understand. They explained everything using both English and Japanese. There was also a good amount of freedom at each location, and I was able to enjoy myself while listening to the explanations. There was plenty of time, and I felt it was a great experience to participate.

とても丁寧で分かりやすい対応のガイドさんでした。英語と日本語の両方を使い、説明してくれました。一つ一つの場所での自由さもあり、説明を聞きながらもしっかり楽しめました。時間も余裕があり、参加して良かったと思いました。

This tour, departing from Nagoya Station and lasting about 11 hours, allowed us to thoroughly enjoy winter in Gujo Hachiman, Hida Takayama, and Shirakawa-go. Before arriving at each destination, our guide provided suggestions on how to spend our time at each location, which was very helpful.

Additionally, at some of the stops, there was an option for those who wished to explore with the guide, allowing us to enjoy a stroll while listening to their explanations.

After departing from Nagoya, we encountered an accident that caused a section of the highway to be closed, so we had to take local roads for part of the journey, resulting in longer travel time than planned. However, the guide's suggestion to redistribute the sightseeing time at each location was optimal, allowing us to thoroughly explore all the destinations and have a fantastic time.

I am very grateful for their flexible responses. Thanks to the guide and the driver, we were able to spend a very meaningful day and create wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

名古屋駅発着で約11時間のツアーで、
冬の郡上八幡、飛騨高山、白川郷を大満喫できる内容でした。
各訪問地到着前にバス車内にてガイドさんが、各訪問地での過ごし方のご提案をしてくださり、とても参考になりました。
また、一部の訪問地では、希望者はガイドさんと一緒に散策をさせていただくことができる選択肢があり、ガイドさんのご説明を聞きながら、散策を楽しむことができました。
名古屋出発後、郡上八幡までの道中、高速道路が通行止めになる事故があったために一部区間において一般道での通行になり、
予定よりも移動時間を要しましたが、
ガイドさんの各訪問地観光時間の再配分時間のご提案が最適で、全ての訪問地をしっかりと観光ができ、大満喫できました。
臨機応変なご対応に大変感謝しています。
ガイドさんと、ドライバーさんのおかげで、とても有意義な一日を過ごすことができ、良い思い出を作ることができました。
どうもありがとうございました。

You can visit the Great Buddha of Kamakura, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, and Enoshima. You can also visit famous locations that were featured in Slam Dunk via the Enoshima Electric Railway. Since this tour departs from Tokyo, I highly recommend it for those who have never been to Kamakura. We were able to efficiently see all the highlights. The tour was conducted in English, and I can’t thank our guide Alex enough for his hospitality. He was a great guide.

鎌倉大仏＋鶴岡八幡宮＋江ノ島を周れる。江の島電車でスラムダンクの舞台にもなった有名場所も訪れられる。東京から出発しているので鎌倉に行ったことない方は是非お勧めしたい。効率的に見所を周れた。英語での催行ツアーになったが、ガイドのAlexのホスピタリティには感謝しかない。良いガイドだった。

We were able to efficiently visit three islands, and the explanations made it a fulfilling day. The water buffalo was also working hard, and I felt like cheering for it. Keep it up!

手際よく3島巡れて説明もしてくれて充実した一日でした
水牛も頑張ってて応援したくなります
がんばってー

I was glad I could visit the main attractions without having to drive or research where to go, thanks to this tour! The guide shared a lot of information about Ishigaki Island, which was also really great.

運転したりどこ行くか調べなくても、このツアーのおかげでメインどころ行けて良かった！
ガイドさんが石垣島のこと沢山お話ししてくれて、それもすごく良かったです。

The mangroves of Iriomote Island and the water buffalo cart to Yufu Island were amazing. The water buffalo cart ride, in particular, was a wonderful experience. The bus driver's stories while we traveled from place to place were also enjoyable.

On Taketomi Island, I rented a bicycle for free and explored the area. While it's possible to walk around, I recommend biking since time is limited in the afternoon. This tour, which doesn't waste any time, comes highly recommended.

西表島のマングローブ、由布島への水牛車、最高でした。
特に水牛車は素敵な時間でした。
場所場所を回るバスの運転手さんのお話も楽しかったです。
竹富島では、フリーで自転車を借りて回りました。徒歩でも回れますが午後からの限られた時間ですので自転車がおすすめです。
無駄な時間を取られることないこのツアーはおすすめです。

Takachiho Gorge was just as beautiful as the pictures and videos I had seen, but the actual scenery was even more enchanting. Not only was the weather perfect, making it a wonderful experience, but I was also very satisfied with the tour guide, who was from China and explained everything clearly after being very well-prepared.

高千穂峡は写真や映像で見たままの景色でしたが、実景はさらに幻想的なものでした。
天候にも恵まれて素晴らしい体験だっただけでなく、ツアーガイドの方が中国の方でしたがとてもよく勉強されていて分かりやすく説明してくれた事に大満足です。

In February, we visited Asahiyama Zoo in the snow, and it was adorable to see the penguin parade. The guide was friendly, and the driver drove safely, which made me feel secure participating in the tour. Asahiyama Zoo has more slopes than I expected, and since the bus stop for group tours is located at the top of a hill, it might be a bit tough for those with weak legs or backs.

2月に雪の中の旭山動物園となりましたが、ペンギンの行進が見られてかわいかったです。
ガイドさんは親切だし、ドライバーさんも安全運転で安心してツアーに参加できました。
旭山動物園は思った以上に坂が多く、団体ツアーのバス乗り場は坂の上にあるので、足腰の弱い方は少しキツイかもしれません。
