All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

I'm glad I participated since there were many places I couldn't go by myself. However, it was really difficult to find a place to have lunch. In the end, I had to buy something at a convenience store and eat it by Lake Toya... I was told there were ramen restaurants, but I just wasn't in the mood for ramen. It would have been perfect if lunch options were a bit more fulfilling.

自分では行けない場所ばかりだったので、参加してよかったです。ただ、お昼を食べる場所が全然なくて探すのが大変だった。結局コンビニで買って洞爺湖で食べるはめに…
ラーメン、レストランがあると言われたが、ラーメンを食べる気にならず。もう少しお昼が充実していれば最高でした。

At Hokkaido Jingu, the freshly made Fukure mochi from Jingu Chaya was delicious.
Shiroi Koibito Park seems to be mainly for souvenirs.
In Otaru, I enjoyed visiting delicious seafood and sweets shops.
I was impressed by the emerald sea and the mystical rocks at Cape Kamoi.

北海道神宮では神宮茶屋の福レ餅が、注文してからの焼きたてでおいしかったです。
白い恋人パークはお土産専用かな。
小樽ではおいしい海鮮とスイーツ店めぐり。
神威岬はエメラルドの海と神秘的な岩に感動しました。

I had a day free in Sapporo due to my schedule, so I participated alone. The tour efficiently covered areas that are difficult to access without a car, and there was no unnecessary time spent at souvenir shops, which is often the case with bus tours. It was a very well-balanced day trip. The guide provided just the right amount of sightseeing information and care, making it comfortable for me as a solo participant. I also made friends with another solo traveler on this bus tour, and we went to eat Genghis Khan together afterward, creating great memories. The only downside was the very bad weather, but I think of that as part of the experience.

Before signing up, I hesitated, thinking it might be tiring if there was too much travel time or if the time at souvenir shops was long, but all those worries were unnecessary. I recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see this area in a limited amount of time.

スケジュールの都合で札幌で1日あいたので、1人で参加しました。車なしでは行きにくい範囲を効率よく回って貰えたし、バスツアーにありがちな余分なお土産物屋立ち寄り時間もなく、とてもバランスの良い日帰りツアーでした。ガイドさんは、細かすぎない観光案内と適度な面倒見の良さで、一人参加でも快適に過ごせました。今回のバスツアーでは同じく1人で参加されてた方ともお友達になれ、ツアー後に一緒にジンギスカンを食べに行ったりして、良い思い出になりました。お天気がとても悪かったのだけが残念でしたが、それも思い出の一つかなと思っています。
申し込む前には、移動時間ばかりだったらしんどいなとか、お土産物屋時間が長いと嫌だな、などと、躊躇していたのですが、全て不要な心配でした。限られた時間でこのエリアを見たい方にはおすすめです。

Half of the tour participants were Japanese, with the other half being from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and there was one person from Germany. The guide was Chinese but was fluent in Japanese, and also provided guidance in Chinese and English. It was a couple participating, and at the sightseeing spots, the guide took many photos of the couple. We were able to visit each sightseeing spot without feeling rushed, and I think it was a good balance.

ツアー参加者の日本人半数で、香港と台湾の方が半分、ドイツ人の方が一名でした。
ガイドさんは、中国人ですが、日本語堪能で、中国語と英語でもガイドしてました。
夫婦参加でしたが、観光スポットでガイドさんはシャッター押してくれて、夫婦の写真もたくさん撮ることができました。
各観光スポット数も無理なく回れて、良いバランスだったと思います。

I participated in a tour around Lake Shikotsu from Noboribetsu.

It was a rainy day, so I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy the scenery.

On a sunny day, I believe the view from Cape Erimo would have been quite beautiful.

Since I gave up on seeing the scenery that day, I lined up a bit at the Toyako Onsen but was able to enjoy some delicious soup curry.

The tour content was excellent (since we could relax while visiting multiple locations by bus).

There were about 40 participants, and half of them were from China, but they were not particularly noisy or late at all. The guide (who was Chinese) explained in both Japanese and Chinese. I’m not sure, but if the participants were all Japanese, there might not be a guide, just the driver? (The driver this time was friendly and kind.) (The guide also provided detailed explanations about the tourist spots, having lived in Japan for about nine years.)

It was cheaper than major sightseeing bus tours, but I felt the content was comparable, which was great.

If I have the opportunity to travel to Hokkaido again, I would like to join a different course tour.

登別から支笏湖を巡るツアーに参加しました

1日　雨だったので景色は楽しめなかったので残念です

晴れの日なら　地球岬はかなり綺麗に海が見えたはずなので

この日は景色を見るのを諦めたので、洞爺湖温泉で少し並びましたが美味しいスープカレーが食べれました

ツアー内容は最高です
（複数箇所をバスで巡ってくれるのでのんびり出来るからです）

ツアー参加者は40人ほどで、半分は中国の方でしたが　特にウルサイとか、遅刻するとかは全く無く　ガイドさん（中国の方）が　日本語と中国語で説明していました　わからないですが、お客様が日本人だけなら　ガイドさんは居なくて運転手さんのみかも？
（今回の運転手さんは気さくで優しい感じでした）
（ガイドさんも日本に住んで9年くらいの観光地も詳しく説明してくれました）

大手の観光バスツアーより格安ですが　内容は同等かと思うので　いいと感じました

また北海道に旅行する機会があれば　ちがうコースのツアーに参加したいです

Not only was I able to go to the places I wanted to visit, but I also received great recommendations, which made my experience very comfortable! Next time I come to Hokkaido with friends or family, I would like to participate again.

行きたかった場所にいけるだけでなくおすすめも教えていただけたので快適に過ごすことができました！次は知人や家族と北海道に来ることがあれば参加したいと思います。

The male guide was incredibly kind and attentive, truly the best. There were Japanese, Chinese, and American guests on the bus, many of whom couldn't speak Japanese, but the guide spoke three languages and actively engaged with guests who seemed anxious upon arriving at the sightseeing spots. I believe that with this guide, even those who can't speak Japanese can participate with peace of mind. Additionally, the tour covered a variety of places, which was great for someone like me who is a bit greedy for experiences.

男性のガイドさんがとっても優しく面倒見の良い最高の方でした。
バスには日本人、中国人、アメリカ人の客がいて日本語を話せない方も多くいましたが、ガイドさんが3カ国語を喋れて観光地に着いても不安そうな客に積極的に話しかけてお世話をしてくれていました。
このガイドさんなら日本語を喋れなくても安心して参加出来ると思います。
またツアーも色々な所を案内してくれるので欲張りな私はとっても良かったです。

It felt special to experience a tour that supports three languages, giving me a perspective on Japan from the viewpoint of foreign visitors. Even though it rained at the zoo, the waterfall, and Blue Point Pond, everything was very beautiful, making it a great tour that covered all the highlights.

海外旅行に来たような三ヵ国語対応ツアーで、外国の方からの視点の日本も知れたような特別感もありました。また、動物園、滝、ブルースポイント池も雨でしたが、とても綺麗で、いいところどりのツアーでした。

The tour I participated in had 24 people from four different countries, and our guide, Mr. M, skillfully managed multiple languages, making the tour enjoyable and reassuring. The driver also ensured safe driving despite bad weather, allowing us to have a very pleasant day.

Both of them had great personalities, and I definitely want to join such a tour again!

The places included in the tour had a rather tight schedule, but they were very appealing and covered all the key points. The feeling of wanting more (I wish I could explore more thoroughly…) turned into a motivation for the next time, thinking, "I’ll come back to see this place in more detail!" I felt that I would definitely like to use this service again.

参加した日は4ヶ国籍で計24名のツアーでしたがガイドのMさんが多国語を見事に操り、楽しく安心出来るツアーを催行して下さり、運転手さんも途中悪天候でも安全運転でとても心地よい1日を送れました。
とにかくおふたりのお人柄が良く、こういうツアーならばまた是非参加したい！と思えます。

また、ツアーに含まれている場所も時間はかなりタイトスケジュールではありますがポイントを抑えていて大変魅力的で、物足りない(もっとじっくり観たいな…)という欲求は「次回はここをもう少しじっくり見に来よう！」という予習にもなるので有難かったです。
また是非利用したいと感じました。

Thank you to the guide who spoke Japanese, Taiwanese, and English. We were blessed with good weather, and thanks to you, we had a comfortable tour. Thank you to the driver for your safe driving.

日本酒、台湾語、英語を話せるガイドさん、ありがとうございました。天気にも恵まれて、お陰様にて快適なツアーが出来ました。運転手様も安全運転に徹していただきありがとうございました。

The guide was very humorous, making us laugh with various jokes while introducing the tourist spots. Although I was traveling alone, I never felt bored, and I was able to visit many different attractions, making it a fulfilling day. By the way, the guide speaks three languages.

ガイドさんはとてもユーモアな方です、観光地の紹介をしながら、色々冗談も言って笑わせてくださいました。
一人旅ですが、全然退屈しなかったですし、色々な観光地が回れたので、充実した１日でした。
ちなみにガイドさんは3か国語が話せるのです。

The tour guide's service was great, and I had a very enjoyable day! I was surprised by the strong winds at Cape Kamui in Shakotan, but it was a good experience. Thank you!

添乗員さんの対応も良く、とても楽しい一日を過ごせました！
積丹カムイ岬の風の強さにはびっくりしましたが、いい経験です。
ありがとうございました

I participated in a tour with Beltora for the first time. It was packed with activities, including Noboribetsu, Cape Earth, a bear ranch, Lake Toya, and Lake Shikotsu. I really enjoyed the whole experience thanks to Sho, who entertained us with his nonstop talk from start to finish. All the members who participated were very satisfied. I definitely want to book another tour with Beltora.

初めてベルトラさんのツアーに参加しました。登別、地球岬、熊牧場、洞爺湖、支笏湖と盛りだくさんな上に、最初から最後までマシンガントークのショウさんに本当に楽しませてもらい、ありがとうございました。参加したメンバーは全員大満足です。
また是非ベルトラさんのツアー頼みたいと思います。

I participated alone, but there were many foreign participants, so the guide provided information in three languages. We visited many famous spots, making it a fun and satisfying tour.

一人参加でしたが、外国の方もたくさん参加していたので、ガイドさんが3か国語で案内して下さり、有名どころをたくさん訪れたので、楽しく満足できるツアーでした。

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the beautiful blue of Shakotan due to the cloudy weather! We had more time in Otaru, but we were rushed at the Glass Road area due to time constraints! I really think we should come during a sunny summer! There were about half Japanese and half foreign visitors, but it was great that everyone was punctual and we could ride the bus comfortably!

折角の積丹はブルー曇りで見られず残念でした！
小樽は時間多めでしたが、ガラスの道のところが時間がなくバタバタでした！
やはりよく晴れた夏に来ないと思いました！
日本人、外国の方半々でしたが、時間厳守で、バスもゆったり乗れてよかったです！

There were only Chinese people, and the Chinese interpreter guide was loud, so I couldn't remember anything from the explanations at each location. This was my first time on such a tour, and I won't be using this service again.

中国人ばかりで中国人通訳ガイドがうるさく、各所のガイド説明はなくなにも覚えれることができなかった。
こんなツアーは初めてで、もうここは使わない。

There were many participants from China, and it was multinational with people from Taiwan and the United States. Of course, there were Japanese participants, but perhaps because they were few, the guide spoke mostly in Chinese, which made it difficult for the Japanese participants to understand, but I think this is unavoidable.

The guide was cheerful and friendly throughout, which was great.

I think it would be better to have the buffet meal in a place with a better view.

The speed of the bus on the way back was fast, and I was surprised to see other cars overtaking us. I also realized how bad the roads in Furano were (quite bumpy, which might make some people feel nauseous), but all of that contributes to good memories.

Overall, I am very satisfied that we were able to visit so many famous spots in just one day. Thank you very much to the guide and the two bus drivers.

If there is another opportunity, I would like to participate again.

中国の方の参加が多く、台湾、やアメリカなど、多国籍でした。もちろん日本人はいましたが、少なかったためか、ガイドさんはほぼ中国語で逆に日本人のためよくわからなかったのですが、これは致し方ないと思います。

ガイドさんは終始明るく
親しみやすくよかったです。

バイキングはもっと景色のよい場所
での食事の方がよいと思います。

帰りのバスのスピードは速かったですが、それでも後続の車に追い抜かれたり、びっくりしましたし、富良野の道の悪さ(かなりぼこぼこで人により酔いそう)も、普段舗装されている道路なんだと改めて感じましたが、そう言うのも全部ひっくるめてよい思い出です。

全体的に、たった１日でこんなに沢山の名所を
回ることが出来、大変満足です。
ガイドさんや、バスの運転手さん2名の方、どうもありがとうございました。

また機会あれば
参加させていただきます。

The Shakotan Peninsula was breathtaking. The wind was so strong that wearing a hat was definitely out of the question. The weather was clear, but the strong wind made it feel a bit chilly. I went all the way to the tip of the Shakotan Peninsula, but it was quite a distance, and the path had stairs, so sneakers are a must. Hokkaido Shrine was mystical and wonderful. It's a power spot.

積丹半島絶景でした。風が強風で帽子は、絶対無しでした。天気は晴れだったんですが、風が強く肌寒いかったです。積丹半島の先端迄行ったのですが、結構な距離もあって、足元も階段だったりでスニーカーはマストですね。北海道神社⛩️は、神秘的で素晴らしかったです。パワースポットです

It's great to be able to visit so many places in just one day. There were quite a few people participating alone, which made it comforting to share the experience together. The guide provided information in three languages, so I felt secure with the language barrier. Although it rained, the lack of crowds actually made it more enjoyable. The driving was smooth, which was reassuring. I really appreciated the well-planned itinerary that allowed for free time to enjoy without any waste.

1日でこれだけ回れるのは嬉しいですね。ひとりで参加する人も結構いてそれなりに一緒に行動したりで安心でした。3カ国語でガイドしてくれるので言葉も安心でした。あいにくの雨でしたが人がいなくてかえって楽しめました。運転も上手くて安心。自由に楽しめる時間が適当にあってムダがないコースがとても良かったです。

I had plenty of time to explore the tourist spots at a leisurely pace, which was great. The distances between the attractions were shorter than I expected, so it wasn't a tight tour.

観光地の滞在時間も余裕があり、ゆっくり散策出来て、大変良かったです。思っていたより、観光地から観光地の距離も短かかったので、タイトなツアーでは無かったです。

It was a satisfying tour that efficiently covered a course that would be difficult to navigate individually. Most participants were of Chinese descent from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore, which added to the feeling of being on an international trip.

個人ではとても回れないコースを効率よく回って頂き満足いくツアーでした。
参加者には台湾、香港、シンガポールなどの中華系の方がほとんどで、海外旅行気分も味わえました。

Hokkaido is very vast, so it's challenging to explore on your own, but this tour was great as it covered many sightseeing spots. I think it's a good deal to participate at this price. I would like to join other tours if the opportunity arises.

北海道はとても広いので個人で回るのは大変ですがこちらのツアーは観光地を沢山回ってくたのでとても良かったです。
この金額で参加出来るのはお得だと思います。
他のツアーも機会があれば参加したいと思います。

It was a great tour that allowed us to visit so many attractions in just one day. The tour guide was very good at speaking and was able to communicate in Japanese, Chinese, and English, kindly assisting people from various countries. The bus driver was also skilled and friendly, making us feel safe during the ride. Personally, I was very satisfied. Thank you to the tour guide and the bus driver for your hard work!

一日でこれだけの観光地を周れるお得なツアーでした。添乗員さんも話し上手な方で日本語中国語英語と三ヶ国語を操り各国の方々に親切に対応していました。バスの運転手さんも運転が上手く気さくな方で安心して乗っている事ができました。わたくし個人、大変満足しました。添乗員さんバスの運転手さんお疲れ様、ありがとうございました。

The content and cost performance are good. I wanted to enjoy a quiet solo trip, but the tour guide was lively. Even though there were empty seats, a man was sitting next to me. It's frustrating that I can only input 50 characters for my evaluation.

内容とCPは良い。一人旅で静かにしていたかったが添乗員が賑やかだった。席が空いていたのに私の隣が男性だった。評価するのに50字しか入力できないのは如何なものか。

I went in May. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy and cold. The trip itself was interesting. The scenery was wonderful. One of the great things about this travel package is that you can visit places that are not accessible by public transportation using a sightseeing bus.

5月に行きました。生憎の天候で曇っていたし寒かった。旅行自体は面白かった。景色が素晴らしかった。公共交通機関で行けない場所を観光バスを使って行ける所が、この旅行パッケージの良いところ。

I went with my mother. The guide was kind, and they kept to the schedule, so we had a fantastic time. I want to go again.

母と一緒に行きました。ガイドさん優しいし、時間もちゃんと守ってるしめちゃくちゃ満喫できました。また行きたいと思います。

The mountains and lakes were truly wonderful and beautiful. However, the bears at Showa Shinzan Bear Ranch were very sad, and their cages were small. It made me feel bad.

山や湖などはとっても素晴らしくて、美しかった。
でも、昭和新山熊牧場の熊たちはとっても悲しくて、ケージは小さかった。悪い気持ちになりました。

I participated in Golden Week. Despite the road congestion, thanks to the adjustments made to the stay times at each destination, I was able to visit all of them. Veteran skill!

GWの参加です。道路渋滞する中
各目的地の滞在時間を調整していただいた事で
全て巡ることができました。
ベテラン技！

The duration of stay at each location was just right, allowing for leisurely sightseeing and restroom breaks. The scenery was also fantastic, which was great. However, I think it would have been better if the lunch break could have been extended a bit.

各地の滞在時間もちょうど良く、ゆっくり観光、トイレ休憩が取れました。
景色も最高で、よかったです。
ただ一つ、昼食の時間を少し伸ばしてもらえると良かったかなと思います。

While keeping an eye on the weather during the Golden Week, I hurried to make a reservation a week before my participation when I saw "△ Only a few left." I was able to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom, and although it was warm during the day with refreshing spring weather, the wind was cold, so wearing long sleeves and a jacket was just right.

Considering that we were touring various famous spots in one day, I understand that the free time for sightseeing after getting off the bus is limited. However, I think it’s quite difficult to ride the Usuzan Ropeway, which is mentioned in the tour details, within the 40 minutes of free time at Showa Shinzan. After getting off the bus, I hurried to the ropeway station, but I missed the timing and had to give up. (The ropeway operates every 15 minutes and takes about 6 minutes one way.)

Additionally, for lunch at the lakeside hot spring town of Lake Toya, the restaurants were crowded, so if you want to keep it reasonable, I think buying something at Seicomart and enjoying lunch while looking at the lake is a good option. There are quite a few benches and places to sit by the lakeside.

Also, the free hot spring "Yakushi Nyorai's Hand and Foot Bath" is located close to the bus parking area, in a corner of the Hotel Grand Toya's parking lot. Although it’s along the sidewalk, I almost walked past it, but it’s a compact circular area where you can enjoy both hand and foot baths at the same time. It wasn’t too hot. I warmed up my wrists and ankles for about 5 minutes, and during the tour, I felt refreshed as my foot fatigue disappeared, so I was glad I brought a towel.

The bus had reserved seating, which was convenient as I could leave my jacket and luggage in my designated seat depending on the situation. Additionally, the tour offered discounts at souvenir shops, allowing me to unexpectedly get items I had planned to buy in Sapporo at a better price.

The tour guide provided fluent commentary in Japanese and Chinese, offering plenty of useful information about sightseeing and traveling in Hokkaido. (There were mostly Japanese participants, but some foreigners joined as well.) The driver skillfully managed the increased traffic during the Golden Week period, and there were no significant delays, demonstrating professional and careful driving, which made for a comfortable and reassuring experience.

The natural scenery visible from the bus windows was so beautiful that I wanted to capture it on camera. I have used VELTRA both domestically and internationally, and I enjoyed this experience as well.

GW週間天気を気にしつつ、参加日1週間前で”△残りわずか”で急いで予約。満開の桜も観られて、爽やかな春の陽気に昼間は暖かくも風は冷たいので、長袖に上着での調節が丁度よかったです。
1日で名所を巡ることから、下車見学の自由時間も限られるのは致し方ないことと思いますが、昭和新山の自由見学時間40分でツアー詳細に記載の有珠山ロープウェイに乗るのは、だいぶ厳しいと思います。
下車後、急いでロープウェイ乗り場へ行きましたがタイミングが合わず断念。
（ロープウェイ運行は15分間隔で、片道約6分）
そのほか、洞爺湖湖畔温泉街での昼食はお店が混んでいたり、リーズナブルに抑えたい場合は、セイコーマートで買って湖を眺めての昼食も良いかと思います。
湖畔はベンチや座れる場所は結構あります。
また、無料温泉「薬師如来の手・足湯」は、バスの駐車場所から歩いて近くにあり、ホテルグランドトーヤの駐車場スペースの一角にありました。
歩道沿いにありながらも、うっかり通り過ぎてしまったのですがコンパクトな円形で座って手・足湯同時に楽しめます。あまり熱くはなかったです。
手首・足首で5分ほど温まりましたが、ツアー途中で私は足の疲れとれてスッキリしたので、タオルを持参して良かったです。
バスは指定席で、状況に応じて上着や荷物など決まった座席に置いておけるのは便利でした。
また、ツアーではお土産店の優待もあり札幌市内で買う予定だった商品を予定外にお得にゲット出来ました。
ツアーガイドさんは、日本語&中国語で流暢に観光案内や北海道旅行に役立つ情報も豊富に提供くださいました。（参加者は日本人多めで外国人も参加あり）
ドライバーさんは、GW期間中の交通量の違いにも、ツアーに大きな遅れは無く丁寧な運転はさすがプロな対応で、快適で安心感のあるものでした。
移動中のバスの車窓からはカメラに納めたくなる絵になるような自然の風景も多くてとても美しいです。
VELTRAは、国内外で利用していますが今回も楽しむことが出来ました。
