Activity Date: 2016/05/14 | Posted on: 2016/05/15

The weather was wonderful, warm, and with little wind, making it very enjoyable!

My 4-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter skillfully used their children's paddles and paddled along!

We started paddling from the Chitose River, so we were able to see fish, and the kids were very satisfied.

Ido, who taught us how to paddle and guided us, was very kind, took many photos, and was great with the kids. Plus, he recommended a delicious pork bowl restaurant! It was really tasty♡

The only thing I found disappointing was that the weather was too nice, and the glare on the lake's surface was strong, so we couldn't see the scenery reflected on the water. Still, since we were in a clear kayak, I could see well through the bottom, even though the reflections and waves made it hard to see outside!

If I have the chance again, I hope to see the scenery as if floating in the sky!

(For reference, I think the kids were fine in long-sleeved, long-pants rash guards. I put a windbreaker over them. Their sleeves and pants got a little wet. The kids felt cold after getting back to shore, so I think it would have been better to bring their shoes and outerwear in waterproof bags.)

天気に恵まれ暖かく、風も少なく、とても楽しめました!

4歳の息子と6歳の娘も子供用のパドルを上手に使い、漕いでいました!

千歳川から漕ぎ始めたので、魚も見れて子供達は大満足でした。

漕ぎ方を教えてくれ、案内してくれるイドさんは、とても親切で、たくさん写真も撮ってくれ、子供の扱いも上手でした。
それに、美味しい豚丼のお店も教えてくれました!とっても美味しかったです♡

私が唯一残念だったのは、天気が良すぎて湖面の照り返しが強く、湖面に景色が映る感じではなかったことです。
それでもクリアカヤックだったので、カヤックの外だと光の反射や波でよく見えない湖の中も、股の間からよく見えて楽しめました!

また、機会があれば、空に浮いているかのような景色が見れればと思います!

(参考までに、服装は子供も長袖長ズボンのラッシュガードにして問題なかったと思います。子供にはその上にウィンドブレーカーを着せました。

袖やズボンが少し濡れた程度でした。子供たちは、岸に上がってから寒がったので、靴と羽織り物は防水袋(防水袋)に入れて持って行けばよかったかも、と思います。
5/14 最高気温21℃くらい)

It took about three days to get a response to my inquiry via email, and I was anxious every day. I think it would be resolved quickly over the phone, so please consider the customer's convenience as well.
The course was good and affordable, and the tour guide was kind. However, the hotel lunch felt like just a pre-prepared meal, which is understandable given the low price, but I left most of it. I think it would be better to have individual items that show more care, like delicious miso ramen or katsu don.

問い合わせしたらメールで3日ぐらいかかりました、毎日不安でした、電話なら直ぐにすむと思います、そちらだけでなく、客の都合も考えて下さい、
コースは良かったです、安いです、添乗員の方も優しいでした、ただホテルの昼ごはん安いから仕方ないですが出来合い並べただけにかんじました、ほとんど残しました、美味しい味噌ラーメンとかカツ丼誠意感じる単品の方が良いと思います。

札幌発 支笏湖&洞爺湖 日帰りバスツアー 有珠山ロープウェイも乗車<昼食付きプランあり/1名から催行/札幌駅発着>
A bus tour with a hotel lunch packed with activities.
盛り沢山の内容でホテルのランチ付きバスツアー
Activity Date: 2015/08/28 | Posted on: 2015/08/30

The tour was conducted with multilingual guidance, primarily through recorded messages on a receiver, without a live guide. I signed up without much expectation, but it was fully booked with many foreign participants, and the tour conductor joined us, making it easy to understand the meeting times.

We visited Lake Shikotsu and Lake Toya, and had lunch at a hotel by Lake Toya, which was quite tasty. I thought the sightseeing content, including the ropeway fee, was a good value.

However, it was disappointing that even with a printed voucher, we had to stand in a long line at the "Regular Sightseeing Bus Center" to exchange it for a seat assignment ticket.

If the system doesn't improve, there is a high possibility that arriving at the meeting place on time won't guarantee making it to the bus departure. I recommend lining up at the "Regular Sightseeing Bus Center" a bit earlier.

多言語案内対応で、基本的に肉声のガイドはなく、テープに録音された多言語の案内をレシーバーで聞くタイプのツアーでした。
余り期待しないで申し込みしましたが、満席で外国人の参加が多く、添乗員さんも同乗したので、集合時間等はわかりやすかったです。

支笏湖・洞爺湖を周り、洞爺湖湖畔のホテルでランチでしたが、そこそこ美味しかったですし、観光の内容もロープーウェイの料金も込みでお値打ちだと思いました。
残念だったのは、バウチャーを印刷していっても、座席指定券と交換する為に長蛇の列の「定期観光バスセンター」に並ばなくてはならないこと。

もう少し、合理的にバウチャーを観光バスの乗務員が座席指定券と交換する等にしないと、座席交換に20分位時間のロスがあります。
このシステムが改善しない場合、集合場所に集合時間に行ったのでは、バスの出発時間に間に合わない可能性が高いです。
早めに、「定期観光バスセンター」に並ぶことをおススメします。

Thank you for riding our regular sightseeing bus, Nagoyajyo. As you pointed out, the number of foreign users has increased in recent years, leading to congestion at our service counters and causing inconvenience to our customers. We are considering measures to improve this situation, such as increasing the number of counters during busy times, but we currently do not have permission from the management of the Sapporo Station Bus Terminal to implement these changes. Moving forward, we will also consider increasing the number of guides and setting up temporary counters to alleviate congestion.

nagoyajyo様、今回は当社の定期観光バスに乗車して頂き、ありがとうございました。ご指摘の通り、近年外国人利用者が増加しており、外国人への対応等で窓口が混雑しており、お客様にご迷惑をかけている状況です。この状況を改善すべく、混雑時の窓口の増設等も検討しておりますが、札幌駅前バスターミナルを管理している箇所から許可で出ていない状況です。今後は誘導員数の増加、臨時窓口の設置等も検討を行い、混雑の緩和に努めていきたいと思います。

I want to go to Lake Shikotsu again!
支笏湖にまた行きたい!
Activity Date: 2015/06/03 | Posted on: 2015/08/13

I joined this tour because renting a car alone felt lonely. With about 20 people on a large bus, I was able to enjoy the places I wanted to visit: Lake Shikotsu, Lake Toya, and Mount Usu. While the foreign guests only received guidance through earphones, our tour guide provided explanations in Japanese, which helped me understand a bit more about Hokkaido.

ひとりでレンタカーも寂しいので、このツアーに参加しました。
20数名で大型バスで、訪れたかった支笏湖、洞爺湖、有珠山を楽しめました。
外国の方々はイヤホンでの案内のみですが、添乗員さんが日本語で観光案内もしてくださったので、北海道のことも少し理解が進みました。

Classic Kyoto Half Day Tour to Kinkakuji, Gingakuji, & Kiyomizudera
Top 3 temples in one day
Activity Date: 2015/06/01 | Posted on: 2015/06/03

There are so many temples in Kyoto but this tour took us to the 3 temples I wanted to see and the guide also pointed out all the temples along the way from the bus. It was just enough stops to maintain my 13 year old daughter's interest without getting bored. Audio headset for English and other languages were only used in the bus so we couldn't understand the guide's explanation at all the stops, which was disappointing to us and the rest of the non-Japanese speaking people on our tour. The time spent at each stop was perfect with enough time to quickly browse through the shops and try popular snacks sold near the temples. We received small omiyage or souvenirs from each temple which was a nice surprise! Although it's a ways down a lot of steps, you should take the time to drink the water flowing down 3 channels to a fountain at Kiyomizudera. They say it has wish granting powers for love, academic success and longevity. This was a great tour but would've been perfect if it was in English!

Classic Kyoto Half Day Tour to Kinkakuji, Gingakuji, & Kiyomizudera
Great time in Kyoto
Activity Date: 2014/11/23 | Posted on: 2014/11/26

First time went to Kyoto alone, we didn't know where to go, we found on the internet about this tour. We had a wonderful time and enjoy tour, tour guide is really friendly and closer with travellers. But only each sightseeing places too much travellers, and the time for sightseeing is limited, so that we have not lot of time to sightseeing as well.
If have change to travel again, we will chose this tour. Thank you

Hokkaido is really nice, isn't it?
やっぱり北海道は良いねえ。
Activity Date: 2013/11/02 | Posted on: 2014/01/06

I was wondering if the autumn leaves season was over, but I went to Hokkaido. This year, the timing was just right, although the colors weren't very good except for the mountain maple. The sightseeing boat on Lake Shikotsu was interesting as I could see the columnar jointing from the hold, and although I walked a bit too much at Lake Toya and Showa Shinzan and got tired, I was satisfied. On the way back, I got off in Susukino and enjoyed the flavors of Hokkaido for the day. My wife left something on the bus, but when I contacted them right away, they kindly delivered the luggage to the hotel. I was so moved!!!

紅葉時期は終わっているかなあと思いつつ、北海道へ。
今年は少し時期が遅くて、ジャストなタイミングでした。
でも、ななかまど以外はあまり色的にはよくなかったけど・・・。
支笏湖の遊覧船も船倉から柱状節理等を見て興味深かったし、洞爺湖、昭和新山もちょっと歩きすぎて疲れたけど、満足。帰りはすすき野で降ろしてもらい、北海道の味覚を堪能した一日でした。
WIFEがバスに忘れ物をしたのですが、すぐ連絡を取ってみたら、わざわざバスがホテルまで荷物を届けてくれました。感激!!!

Great value with point usage.
ポイント利用でお値打ちに。
Activity Date: 2013/10/21 | Posted on: 2013/11/18

I wanted to stop by Lake Shikotsu before heading to the airport, so it was great that there was a plan to disband at Lake Shikotsu. I was also able to use my accumulated points, making it a good deal.

The autumn foliage along the way was beautiful, and I thoroughly enjoyed fall in Hokkaido! ☆

帰る前に支笏湖に寄って空港に行きたかったので支笏湖で解散できる
プランがありちょうどよかったです。
貯まっていたポイントも利用したのでお値打ちに利用できました。

道中の黄葉もキレイで秋の北海道を満喫しました☆

Autumn in Japan is one of the world’s most beautiful seasons. From crimson maple leaves in Kyoto’s temple gardens to golden ginkgo boulevards in Tokyo and misty mountain views in Hokkaido, the kōyō (autumn foliage) season combines rich culture, vivid landscapes, mild weather and thinner crowds. These tours spotlight the 2025 autumn window, guiding you to peak colour periods and the right style of excursion for your dates, interests and pace. Ideal for both first-time visitors and Japan regulars.
