All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I was hoping to take the glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay, and I was able to enjoy it thanks to being taken out early due to the sea conditions. There was a lot of information that you wouldn't know on general tours or as an individual, which made for an effective sightseeing experience. I think it must have been tough to navigate the island so extensively, but I had a great time in the vehicle as well. Nowadays, you can find anything online, but the information from the locals was very helpful and made for a wonderful trip. Thank you very much!

川平湾のグラスボートを希望していましたが、海の状態から早めに連れて行っていただいたので堪能できました。
一般のツアーや個人ではわからない情報がたくさんあり、有効に観光できました。
島を縦横無尽に走ってくださり大変だっと思いますが、車内でも楽しく過ごせました。
今は何でもネットで調べられますが、現地の方の情報はとても参考になり良い旅行になりました。
ありがとうございました

I have visited Kyoto many times, but traveling alone can be challenging due to bus transfers and lack of research. However, with a tour like this, it's easy. For places I had visited before, I was allowed to explore freely, while I was guided to places I had never been. The guide entertained us with unique English as well.

何度も京都に来ていますが、個人だとバスの乗り継ぎやリサーチ不足で大変ですが、このようなツアーだと楽です。以前行ったことのある所は自由行動にしてもらい行ったことのない場所を案内してもらいました。ガイドさんもユニークな英語で楽しませてもらいました。

Otsuka, the mountain guide, provided a thorough explanation that conveyed his love for Tateyama, deepening our appreciation for the charm of the snow walls. Unfortunately, we did not encounter the rock ptarmigan, but it seemed that the other participants in the tour were able to see them.

山岳ガイドの大塚さんの立山愛が伝わる丁寧な説明で、雪の壁の魅力がより深まりました。
私たちは残念ながら雷鳥に遭遇できませんでしたが、ツアーのみなさんは雷鳥にも出会えたようでした。

The bus staff were kind and it was great 😊 I was healed by the scenery of Shirakawa-go and had a wonderful trip. Thank you!

バスの関係者の方が親切で良かったです😊
また白川郷の景観に癒されて良い旅ができました、ありがとうございます

It’s difficult to explore Mishima in a day on your own, so I joined a tour. Since it was my husband's first time in Ishigaki Island, he was satisfied with this packed tour, and I was also pleased that I signed up for it.

個人では三島を一日で回るのは難しいので、ツアーに参加しました。
夫は初めての石垣島なので、ギュっと詰め込んだこのツアーに満足してくれて申し込んだ私も満足でした。

I searched several places and found a good restaurant. I was able to eat in the best condition by grilling it myself. I was also satisfied with the soba that came as a set.

何軒か探して良い店を見つけました。自分で焼くのが一番良いコンディションで食べられました。蕎麦もセットで満足できました。

It was a tour that focused on the Churaumi Aquarium and visited several sightseeing spots. Since it was my first tour and I had a guide for the whole day, I was able to enjoy sightseeing safely. The journey was by bus, so I could enjoy the scenery and check out souvenirs to buy, making good use of my time. On the way back, there was traffic, but I got tired and fell asleep, so I returned safely.

美ら海水族館メインで観光スポットを数カ所巡るツアーでした。
初ツアーで1日の案内して頂けたので安全に観光出来ました。
バスの中での旅でしたので景色を楽しんだり購入するお土産の確認したり時間を有意義に使えました。
帰りは渋滞でしたが疲れて寝てしまい安全に帰れました。

The tour guide explained everything very well. The bus ride was nice, but unfortunately, it rained almost all day due to circumstances beyond our control. I understand that it wasn't the travel agency's or the tour guide's fault, but it's hard to say it was the best tour ever because of that.

添乗員さんはとてもよく説明してくれました。バス中はよかったのですが、不可抗力の雨がほぼ終日降りまして残念でした。旅行社や添乗員さんの問題ではないのはわかっているのですが、最高のツアーでしたとはならないのも致し方ないかと。

Compared to the hanger tour, there are some somewhat harsh comments like "plain" and "you can't see real airplanes," but I think this tour, which allows you to see the actual training facility, is valuable.

When I saw the cabin crew and maintenance staff seriously undergoing training as part of their jobs, I was reminded that even on the flights I casually board, there are so many people working behind the scenes to make it happen.

The guides come from various backgrounds, such as cabin crew and ground staff, and they take turns leading the tours. They not only have their own experiences but also possess extensive knowledge about the facility and ANA as a whole, answering visitors' detailed questions accurately. It was a significant gain to resolve some of my long-standing questions, in addition to appreciating the facility itself.

　ハンガー見学に比べると、「地味」「本物の飛行機を見られない」など少々厳しいコメントもありますが、訓練施設の実物を見学出来る本ツアーは貴重だと思います。
　CAさん、整備士さんが、業務として真剣に研修を受けられている姿を拝見すると、自身が何気なく搭乗する便でも、こんなに色々な方々のお仕事があっての運行だと、改めて思いを致しました。
　ガイドさんは、CAさん、グランドスタッフさんなど、色々バックボーンを持たれる方が、その時々にコースを担当されるとのことです。しかし、ご自身のご経験以外にも、広く本施設やANA全体への知識をお持ちで、見学者の細かな質問にも適格に答えて下さいました。施設も然ることながら、以前からの疑問を解決出来たのが大きな収穫でした。

How's the weather?

I applied about a month ago and was looking forward to it! We were blessed with the perfect weather—neither too hot nor too cold, with gentle winds, making it a wonderful day. The shiba-zakura (moss phlox) blooming all over the mountains created a beautiful pink world. The tulips were impeccably maintained and greeted us with their stunning stature.

This time, I participated with my elderly mother (I’m a senior myself—laughs). Our guide was a kind young man from Taiwan, who spoke several languages fluently while explaining things (amazing!).

He asked us multiple times if we wanted to take pictures together, but I declined out of fear of how I would look in the photos. Looking back, I regret not having taken a picture from a distance where my wrinkles wouldn’t show—laughs.

If there’s another opportunity, I would definitely like to join again! Thank you so much for a wonderful day. I truly appreciate it!

お天気はどうかな？〜と
1ヶ月ほど前に申し込みして楽しみにしていました♪
暑くもなく寒くもなく風も穏やかな最高のお天気に恵まれ、素晴らしい1日になりました♡
山一面に咲く芝桜は満開でピンク色の世界が美しかったです╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
チューリップは見事なまでに手入れされており、美しい立ち姿で迎えてくれました♡
今回は高齢の母と2人で参加させて頂きました。（私自身もシニアです〜笑）
ガイドさんは台湾出身の優しいお兄さん。
数カ国語を流暢に操り説明していらっしゃいました。（素晴らしい）
現地で、お二人で写真撮りませんか？と何度も声をかけて下さいましたが、ありのままの自分が写真に映し出される恐怖でお断りしてしまいましたm(__)m
今思えば、遠くから（シワが見えない距離で）記念に撮っていただけば良かったな〜と後悔しています（笑）
また、機会があれば是非お願いしますね♡
素晴らしい1日を本当に有り難うございました♪感謝♪

Despite being close to my sixtieth birthday, I pushed myself to participate. Thanks to the guide's appropriate pacing, I was able to enjoy and successfully complete the experience without any issues.

還暦間近の老齢に身体に鞭打っての参加
ガイドさんの適切なペース配分の元、楽しく無事に完遂できました。

We were able to visit four places by bus, and lunch was included. Despite the cold, we were able to enjoy Kyoto comfortably and happily. Maria's guiding explanation was perfect! I plan to join another tour in June during the hydrangea season.

バスで4箇所も回れ、お昼付き。
寒い中寒さもしのげラクに楽しく京都をまわれました。マリアさんのガイド説明も完璧でした！また6月紫陽花時期に別のツアーに参加予定です。

There were many foreigners, and only a few Japanese participants. There were explanations in three languages, and the meeting times were displayed each time, making it easy to understand. No one was late to the meeting points, so everything went smoothly. However, the meeting place in Nagoya in the morning was a bit hard to find.

Takayama and Shirakawa-go were popular and crowded, but Gujo Hachiman was calm. Generally, the sightseeing at each location was free, but if you chose to explore the town of Gujo Hachiman, you could have a guide. In Shirakawa-go, there was advice on how to get around within the time limit, and the view from the high ground was more wonderful than I expected.

外国人が多く、日本人は数組でした。
3カ国語で説明があり、集合時間も毎回表示していたのでわかりやすかったです。
各所の集合に遅れる人はいなかったので、スムーズでした。
ただ朝の名古屋の集合場所がわかりにくいです。

高山と白川郷は人気の場所で混雑していましたが、郡上八幡は落ち着いてました。基本は各所フリー観光ですが、郡上八幡の街の散策を選んだらガイドしてもらえました。
白川郷では時間内でどう回ればよいかアドバイスがあり、高台からの景色は思った以上に素晴らしかったです。

Thanks! Great trip with great people & many impressions!

The moss phlox was in full bloom and it was amazing. The moss phlox soft serve was also delicious. The tulips were beautiful too! I experienced digging up tulips and brought some home to display.

芝桜満開で最高でした。
芝桜ソフトもおいしかった。
チューリップも綺麗でした！
チューリップ掘り起こし体験して持って帰って飾ってます。

It was a tour for foreigners, but everyone was punctual for the meeting time, and the bus was not noisy. There were two Japanese guides who were very considerate, making it an enjoyable bus tour. Thank you very much. The driver was also very skilled and drove safely.

外人向けのツワーでしたが、集合時間も皆さんよく守られ車内もやかましくはなかった　ガイドさん日本人は私たち二人でしたが気を遣ってくださり楽しいバスツアーでした　ありがとうございました　ドライバーの方も非常に上手で安全運転でした

The guide's explanations were easy to understand, which was great. Mirai-kun the water buffalo also did a great job. My father's sanshin performance was very good as well. They even sang the tortoise and the hare for my grandchild, who was very happy and danced along. I made wonderful memories.

ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすくてよかったです
水牛のミライ君も頑張ってくれでした　お父さんの三線もとても良かったです　また孫の為にうさぎと亀まで歌っていただいてとても喜んで踊ってました
素敵な思い出ができました

I signed up for a free plan on Taketomi Island, rented a bicycle, and went to the star sand beach. It was during the rainy season, but the weather was clear during the tour, making it very pleasant for cycling. We were able to reach the beach in a short amount of time, making effective use of our time, and I highly recommend it. I enjoyed exploring and experiencing various things around the three islands.

竹富島はフリープランに申し込み、レンタサイクルして、星の砂浜に行きました。梅雨でしたが、ツアー中は、天気も晴れ、とても気持ち良く、サイクリングでき、時間も短時間で、浜にいけて、時間を有効に使い、オススメです。
3島周り、色々見て、体験してインジョイできました。

The guide took photos from a very good angle, which became a great memory! Thank you for the early approach and pacing, anticipating the traffic.

ガイドさんにとても良いアングルで写真を撮って頂き記念になりました！
渋滞になることを見越して早めのアプローチ＆ペース配分、ありがとうございました。

Iriomote Island and Yufu Island were great, but when I chose the bus tour plan for Taketomi Island, it turned out to be a very rushed experience, lasting only about an hour. We spent 15 minutes at Kaiji Beach and another 15 minutes for walking around the island. Additionally, we were forced to return by boat, so for those who want to fully enjoy Taketomi Island, I recommend the water buffalo cart plan or the free plan. I also think it would be better if the bus tour plan allowed us to choose the return boat schedule.

西表島、由布島は良かったのですが、竹富島のバス観光プランを選択したところ、竹富島を約1時間でものすごくバタバタした観光でした。カイジ浜は15分、島内の徒歩観光も15分程度です。そして強制的に船で帰らされるため、竹富島を堪能したい人は、水牛車プランかフリープランをお勧めします。バス観光プランも、帰りの船便を選択できるといいと思います。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the water buffalo because I was in the last row. I wish there was a guarantee for the front row!

It was hot in Taketomi Island in May, and I gave up on going to the beach. I returned to the port early, but I had quite a bit of time left.

水牛は一番後ろの席だったので、水牛が見えず残念でした。
前列確約があればいいのにー

5月の竹富島は暑く、浜辺まで行くのを断念しました。
早めに港に戻りましたがかなり時間が余りました

I'm glad I was able to visit popular spots that are difficult to reach without a car in a compact one-day trip. Additionally, I was lucky to book at a great price during the Black Friday sale.

The Churaumi Aquarium is spacious with many attractions, and it took a lot of time just to travel back and forth from the bus parking lot. Even while eating the lunch I brought, I didn't have enough time to fully enjoy the exhibits.

Similarly, the American Village also had a distant bus parking lot, and I only had time to walk around and see the exterior of the buildings, which was disappointing as I couldn't go into the shops and relax.

The guide warned us, "If you miss the meeting time at each spot, you'll have to make your own way to the next sightseeing location," which made the participants gather quickly, causing the tour schedule to move ahead significantly. I would have appreciated it if we could have extended our stay at the American Village to the originally planned time.

車がないと行きにくい人気スポットを１日でコンパクトに回れて良かったです。
更に今回はブラックフライデーセールでお得価格で予約できてラッキーでした。
美ら海水族館は広くて見所が多く、バス駐車場からの往復移動にも時間がかかり、持参した昼食を食べながらの見学でも時間が足りませんでした。
アメリカンビレッジも同様にバス駐車場が遠く、建物外観を一通り見て回るくらいでお店に入ってゆっくりする時間がなく残念でした。
ガイドさんから「各スポットの集合時間に間に合わなかった人は自力で次の観光地点まで移動してください」と脅されていたこともあり参加者の集合が早くツアースケジュールがかなり前倒しで進んでいたので、最後のアメリカンビレッジ滞在を本来の予定時間まで延ばしてもらえるとありがたかったです。

Thanks to the experience and knowledge of our veteran guide, all eight of us were able to see the Jomon Sugi and visit a secret location, and we returned safely! I am truly grateful! Thank you for all the wonderful memories!

ベテランガイドさんの経験や知識のお陰で８人全員が縄文杉を見て秘密の場所にも行けて無事に帰って来れました！
本当に感謝感謝です！
楽しい思い出をたくさんありがとうございました！

My son really wants to become an airport mechanic or crew member, so we came to see the actual training process. They kindly answered all of our detailed questions. They even researched things we didn't understand on the spot. I felt the depth of their knowledge and the amazing teamwork within the company.

息子が空港の整備士か乗務員にどうしてもなりたいと言ったため。実際の研修模様を見せにきました。細かな質問も気さく答えてくださいました。その場で分からないことも調べてくださり。知識の深さや社内連携の凄さを感じました

The moss-covered forest is certainly wonderful, but it was great to overlook the Yakushima mountains from Taiko Rock. The day before, I went to Jomon Sugi, but this hike wasn't too strenuous, and since the pace was slow, I had plenty of time to listen to the guide's stories, take breaks, and take photos.

苔むす森も十分素晴らしいのですが、太鼓岩から屋久島の山林を見渡せたのがよかったです。前日に縄文杉に行きましたが、こちらは歩行もそれほど辛くなく、ペースもゆっくりなのでガイドさんのお話を聞いたり、ゆっくり休憩したり、写真を撮る時間もたくさんあったりでよかったです。

The shuttle service to and from the accommodation and the option to order bento meals were very convenient for early morning departures. I didn't use it myself, but the rental equipment seemed well taken care of by the guide, even in the rain, so it looked easy to manage. The pace depends on the group members, but when I participated, I heard about some people who had to give up midway due to health issues and others who fell and broke bones. You should expect to spend around 10 hours, so I recommend going while you still have some energy!

宿との送迎、お弁当の注文などもできて早朝出発には便利でした。自分は使いませんでしたが、レンタルは雨に濡れてもガイドさんがケアしてくださっていたので楽そうでした。
ペースはグループのメンバーによりますが私が参加したときには体調不良で途中断念の方や転んで骨折した方など色々聞きましたし、10時間程度は見込む必要があるので、少しでも体力のあるうちに行っていただきたいです！

I was able to participate in this tour, which was canceled last March due to not reaching the minimum number of participants. Since I usually don't drive at all, it was quite difficult for me to get to the northern area of Okinawa on my own, so it was a long-awaited opportunity for me. On the day of the tour, despite it being the rainy season, we were fortunate to have beautiful weather and had a great day.

The lunch at Kunigami Port Shokudo was delicious, and I was moved by the magnificent views at Cape Hedo. At ASMUI, I felt a spiritual atmosphere. The scenery of Okinawa during the bus ride was also lovely. I flew back to Tokyo on a flight after 8 PM from Naha Airport, and although I was worried about delays due to traffic since it was Sunday evening, I was lucky to arrive a little earlier than planned at Omoromachi Station on the monorail. The tour guide initially seemed quiet and a bit brusque, but their responses at key moments were solid, and my impression improved as the tour went on. Regarding the guide, since it was a Hip Hop Bus using a mobile app, I felt that this style of role-sharing was quite acceptable.

昨年3月に申し込みをしたものの、催行人数に達せず中止となったこのツアーに、今回は参加することが出来ました。普段は車の運転を全くしないため、自力で沖縄本島北部のエリアに行くことがなかなか難しく、念願がかなっての参加でした。当日は梅雨時にもかかわらず幸いの好天に恵まれ、良い１日を過ごすことが出来ました。
国頭港食堂のお昼は美味しく、辺戸岬では雄大な景気に感動し、ASMUIではスピリチュアルな空気を感じました。バス道中の沖縄の景色も良かったです。当日は那覇空港20時過ぎの飛行機で東京に帰ったのですが、日曜日の夕刻だったので渋滞での遅延も心配したものの、幸い予定よりも少し早くモノレールのおもろまち駅前に到着しました。添乗員の方は、最初は無口でつっけんどんな印象でしたが、節目節目での対応はしっかりとしており、途中からは良い印象になりました。ガイドについては携帯専用アプリによるHip Hop Busですので、役割分担としてこうしたスタイルもありかなと感じました。

I thought it was a place I would probably never visit on my own, so I signed up for a tour of the Shakotan Peninsula and Otaru. It was a stormy day, but the gate that prohibits women was open, and I was able to reach the cape.

Since there are ups and downs, it's essential to wear comfortable shoes, but the path is well-maintained, so it was possible to make the round trip in about an hour without rushing.

The scenery was absolutely stunning, and it offered a chance to experience something out of the ordinary. Both the guide and the driver were very kind. This was my second time participating in a Veltra tour (the first was abroad), and I felt very secure joining this one.

おそらく自分では行く事のない場所だと思い、積丹半島、小樽のツアーを申し込みました。暴風でしたが女人禁制の門は開いており岬まで行く事ができました。
アップダウンがあるので歩きやすい靴で行くのは必須ですが、道も整えられているので往復1時間あれば、急がずとも可能でした。
景色はとても素晴らしく非日常を体験できます。ガイドさんも運転士さんもとても親切でした。ベルトラのツアーは2回目の参加(以前は国外)ですが、とても安心して参加できます。

The small microbus was full (12 people), but the driver efficiently took us to the sightseeing spots, allowing us to see a lot of beautiful scenery, which made me very satisfied. I received a discount coupon at the souvenir shop at the Silo Observation Deck, so when I bought souvenirs there, they were cheap, and I was able to get dried shellfish and octopus, which were delicious. I looked for them elsewhere but couldn't find them, so I thought I should have bought more. I had a great time and I'm glad I participated.

小さなマイクロバスで満席（12名）だったけど、運転手さんが効率よく観光地に連れて行ってくれたので、良い景色がたくさん見られて大満足でした。サイロ展望台のお土産屋さんで割引券をもらったのでそこでお土産を買ったら安いし、貝ひもやタコの干物が買えて美味しかったので他でも探したけど、売ってないので、もっと買えばよかったと思いました。とても楽しめました。参加してよかったです。

I participated in a local tour for the first time, and it was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed a mangrove cruise, explored Yubu Island by water buffalo cart, and had a free walk on Taketomi Island. Despite the many transfers, the guidance was excellent, and I had a fun day without getting lost. Thank you very much!

現地ツアーに初めて参加させて頂きました、
マングローブクルーズや水牛車での由布島散策、竹富島フリーウォークと移動が多いのに、しっかり誘導して頂き迷う事なく楽しい1日でした。ありがとうございました。
