It was convenient to board from in front of Kushiro Station.
During travel in the COVID-19 pandemic, there were only a few members participating alone on the bus.
The guide's singing was excellent.
I recommend it because they efficiently take you around the highlights.
釧路駅前から乗車で便利でした
コロナ禍の旅行で、バスは1人参加のメンバーばかりで少なかったです
ガイドさんの歌が上手でした
見所を効率的に回ってくれるのでおすすめです

I felt that participation should be approached with caution in these times, but fortunately, there were no requests for self-restraint on outings, so I was able to participate. Thank you.
The three major lakes and Mount Io were covered at this time and at this price, with each stay being neither too long nor too short, making it manageable. Additionally, the bus guide provided very detailed and warm explanations along the way! It was a wonderful tour.
Each of the three lakes is beautiful and has its own charm. The weather was nice, and I was grateful to see the stunning Mashu Blue.
You can choose your drop-off location from Lake Akan, Kushiro Airport, or Kushiro city. We rode to Kushiro Airport. There is a two-hour stay at Lake Akan, but it surprisingly went by quickly. If you want to take your time and have transportation arranged afterward, it might be nice to get off at Lake Akan and enjoy a stroll or a bath.
Thank you.
このご時勢、参加は慎重にすべきと感じていましたが、幸い、外出自粛要請等の発令はなかった為、参加させて頂きました。ありがとうございます。
3大湖と硫黄山、これらをこの時間かつこの価格で網羅して下さっていて、それぞれの滞在時間も長すぎず短すぎずで無理がなく、加えて道中はバスガイドさんからのとても詳しい温かみのある解説!とても良いツアーです。
3つの湖はどれも美しく、それぞれの魅力があります。お天気が良く摩周ブルーも臨むことができ、ありがたかったです。
降車場所も阿寒湖・釧路空港・釧路市内と選べます。私たちは釧路空港まで乗車しました。阿寒湖では2時間の滞在時間がありますが意外とあっという間でした。ゆっくりされるなら、かつ、その後の移動手段が確保できるなら、阿寒湖で下車して、散策や入浴を楽しまれるのも良いかもしれません。
ありがとうございます

This trip was a solo journey without a rental car. Thanks to the Pirika, I was able to efficiently visit the attractions in one day. The blue of Lake Mashu was beautiful, and the sightseeing boat I took on Lake Akan offered stunning views (I was also able to take the local bus back, so I could enjoy the boat ride). I feel like I saw a red-crowned crane from the window of the car, but it passed by in an instant, which was a bit disappointing.
今回の旅は、レンタカー無しの一人旅。ピリカ号のお蔭で1日で効率よく
名所を回ることが出来ました。摩周湖のブルーは美しく、阿寒湖で乗った観光船も(帰りは、路線バスを利用する事も出来たので乗船できました)景色が最高でした。
車窓から丹頂を見た気がするのですが…あっという間に通り過ぎちゃってちょっと残念。

I participated with a friend. Despite the season, there were surprisingly many participants, and more than half of the seats were filled. The weather was good for summer in Kushiro, and we were able to see the clear Lake Mashu. Additionally, visiting scenic spots like the sulfur mountain that would look great on Instagram made this a truly wonderful tour. I feel that it's cheaper than renting a car if there are just two people, as renting a car incurs parking fees at various locations. I think the guide's wonderful singing voice is also a feature of this tour. If I come to Kushiro again, I would like to use this service.
友人と一緒に参加しました。
こんな時期ですが、参加者は意外と多くて座席は半分以上埋まっていました。
夏の釧路にしては天気が良く、晴れた摩周湖を見ることが出来ました。他にも、インスタ映えしそうな硫黄山など見どころを回ってもらえるのは、本当に良いツアーだと思います。二人までなら、レンタカー借りて回るよりも安い気がします。レンタカーだと、各所で駐車場代なんかもかかりますしね。
ガイドさんの素晴らしい歌声が聞けるのも、このツアーの特徴かなと。
次回も釧路に来ることがあれば、利用させていただきたいと思います。

Due to the impact of COVID-19, I was the only one on the large bus. While I'm grateful, it felt a bit awkward, so perhaps it would be better to have at least two people on the tour.
This is a tour that allows you to explore Lake Akan, and if you don't have a car, this tour is really a great deal.
However, since everything is outdoors, it could be a disappointing tour if the weather is bad. Even when the weather is fine, it seems there are often foggy periods, so be cautious. This time, I was lucky with the good weather.
The bus guide was constantly looking at her notes while talking. Is this normal?
コロナの影響もありなんと大型バスに一人。
ありがたいですが、さすがに気まずいので2人敢行にしてもいいのでは..。
阿寒の湖を回れるツアーですが、
車がない場合はこのツアーは本当にお得です。
ただ、全部外なので天気が悪いと残念ツアーかも。
天気が悪くなくても霧の時期が多いそうなので注意です。
今回は天気が良くてよかったです。

I participated last August as well, but I couldn't see anything at Lake Mashu because of the fog, so I joined again. There were less than ten participants due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which made for a very relaxed experience. When we reached the observation deck at Lake Mashu, the weather cleared up and we could see it well! It was my second time hearing the Akanko Bus original song, and it was fun (laughs). I'm planning to go again next year, so I will participate again. The cost performance is really good!
去年の8月も参加しましたが、摩周湖が霧でなにも見えなかったので再度参加しました。コロナ禍で参加者は10人もいなかったですね。なのでかなりゆったりと過ごせました。摩周湖も展望台についたときには晴れてよく見えました! 阿寒バスオリジナルソングも2度目でしたが面白かったです(笑)来年も行く予定ですのでまた参加してみます。コスパがすごく良いですからね。

Lake Mashu, Lake Kussharo, and Lake Akan each had their own unique expressions. The sulfur mountain along the way also conveyed a sense of the active volcanic activity and the grandeur of the surroundings. I initially had no image of it, but I thought it was a great spot.
Additionally, the restaurant and bakery introduced by the guide at Lake Akan were delicious and enjoyable.
Regarding infection prevention measures, wearing masks was of course mandatory, and there were alcohol disinfectants available at various locations. We were also able to maintain a reasonable distance while boarding and sightseeing, which may have been a secondary benefit.
This was a solo trip over two nights and three days, but I felt that using this tour for a day expanded the enjoyment of my travels. Thank you very much.
摩周湖・屈斜路湖・阿寒湖、何れもそれぞれの表情がありました。途中の硫黄山もまた、火山活動の活発さ、周囲を含めた雄大さが感じられました。当初はイメージが無かったのですが、良いスポットだと思いました。
また阿寒湖でガイドさんが紹介された食事処・パン屋 美味しくて良かったです。
感染防止対策についてはマスク着用は勿論ながら、各地でのアルコール消毒、(副次的な意味かもしれませんが)適度な間隔を取った乗車・観光が出来ていました。
今回は二泊三日の一人旅だったのですが、このツアーも一日利用させていただいて旅行の楽しさが広がった気がしました。ありがとうございます。
Thank you very much for riding our regular sightseeing bus, the Pirika. Each lake shows a different aspect as the weather and seasons change.

I chose to travel to Kushiro after the COVID-19 restrictions were lifted. We visited Kushiro Wetlands (from the car window), Lake Mashu, Iouzan, Lake Kussharo, and Lake Akan in that order. Sitting on the right side of the vehicle gives you more opportunities to see beautiful scenery through the window. In July, about 20 days are said to have foggy conditions at Lake Mashu, but when I visited, it was clear and the beautiful Mashu Blue was visible. I think it's good to allocate 20 minutes for viewing Iouzan and 30 minutes for Lake Kussharo. At Lake Akan, you have about two hours of free time during lunch, but if you take the sightseeing boat, you won't be able to board the return bus. Instead, if you show your sightseeing bus ticket, you can stay an extra hour and transfer for free to another Akan bus to return to Kushiro. You can also get off at Kushiro Airport, so I think it's a good idea to include this tour on the day you leave Kushiro by plane. The guide was a young woman, and her explanations were thorough and well-delivered, and she sang beautifully, which was impressive. It would be difficult to explore these tourist spots on your own in one day, so I was very satisfied.
新型コロナウィルス自粛明けの旅行に釧路旅行を選択しました。釧路湿原(車窓)、摩周湖、硫黄山、屈斜路湖、阿寒湖の順番で周りました。向かって右側の座席に座ると車窓からのいい景色を見る機会が多いです。7月は月20日程度が霧の摩周湖だそうですが、訪問したときは快晴できれいな摩周ブルーでした。硫黄山の見学を20分、屈斜路湖の見学を30分にしてもらうといいかと思います。阿寒湖は昼食時間混みで2時間の自由時間が与えられますが、湖の遊覧船を利用すると帰りのバスに乗車できません。代わりに観光バスのチケットを提示すれば1時間長く滞在でき、別の阿寒バスに無料で乗り換えられ釧路に戻ってこれます。また、釧路空港で下車することもできるので飛行機で釧路を離れる日にこのツアーを入れていいと思います。若い女性のガイドさんでしたが、説明が丁寧でしっかりとしており、歌が上手く感動しました。1日でこの観光地を自力で周るのは難しいので大変満足しました。
Thank you for using our regular sightseeing bus, Pirika. We appreciate your valuable feedback. We are glad to hear that you were satisfied with this tour. If you have the opportunity, please visit us again in a different season. You will be able to see a different side compared to summer.

Since I can't drive, I was thinking about how to get around the wide roads of Eastern Hokkaido when I found this tour mentioned in a guidebook, and the reviews were highly rated, so I decided to join.
Given the current situation, there were only about 10 participants, but despite that, the guide's explanations were thorough and enjoyable to listen to, and the scenery from the car windows was truly "Hokkaido!" and wonderful, making it a very good trip.
It's an efficient way to visit the famous spots, and in the evening, you can return to Kushiro city and enjoy the sunset, so I think it's a great tour.
車の運転ができないので、広い道東をどうやって回ろうか考えていたところ、ガイドブックにこのツアーのことが書かれており、口コミも高評価だったので参加しました。

This was my first solo trip to Kushiro. Since my vacation time was short and I couldn't drive, I chose to join a regular bus tour. This tour allowed me to visit three lakes in one day. Although the stopover time at each location was brief, I was able to experience them. The guide was very dedicated in explaining things on the bus and even sang along during the trip. The only downside was that the weather wasn't great that day; Lake Mashu was completely shrouded in fog, and I couldn't see anything. I hope to visit Kushiro again in the future.

Amid the COVID-19 situation and the state of emergency, after finishing my business trip in Kushiro, I found this tour while thinking it would be nice to explore Eastern Hokkaido again after a long time.
As expected, there were only three passengers, including myself. With a large tour bus and a lovely guide, it was such a luxurious trip!
Even with a small number of people, the driver and the guide worked hard to provide excellent service. I learned a lot, even things I didn't know as a Hokkaido resident.
I was able to fully enjoy my favorite lake and take a deep breath without my mask! Plus, we had a delicious bento lunch included at this price! We were blessed with wonderful weather, and both Lake Kussharo and Lake Mashu were even more beautiful! I also got to hear the guide's singing after a long time, which made my heart flutter. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
Let's overcome this situation together!
I believe there were people who had to cancel due to the impact of the coronavirus, but it would be nice if they could at least reach out with their intentions. Since they are working hard to keep the business running, I think it's important to show a little kindness.

I traveled alone to Kushiro and booked a business hotel for two nights right in front of the station. On the second day, since I had plenty of time, I thought it would be a waste to just wander around Kushiro, so I looked for a sightseeing tour and found this one.
It was a tour that visited the three major lakes: Lake Mashu, Lake Kussharo, and Lake Akan, departing from Kushiro, just as I had hoped. Although there were many foreign tourists, about half of the participants were Japanese. Overall, I found it to be a reassuring tour that was more than satisfying for a solo traveler.
I would like to share my experience of the tour. At the first stop, Tsurumidai, I was moved to see many red-crowned cranes up close. It was great to witness them take off as well. The red-crowned crane soft serve ice cream recommended by the guide looked like a crane and was very delicious.
As we approached Lake Mashu, the weather changed from sunny to a snowstorm, and unfortunately, we couldn't see the mysterious Lake Mashu. However, the Mashu Blue soft serve ice cream recommended by the guide at the rest area was tasty.
For lunch, I had a pork bowl bento at the Mashu Onsen roadside station, which was very delicious. At Iouzan, as soon as I got off the bus, I was hit by the strong smell of sulfur. There were fumaroles rising from various spots on the mountain, and while you could get relatively close to them, some areas were quite snowy and difficult to walk through. The guide's recommended steamed eggs made with sulfur hot springs were piping hot and delicious.
At Lake Akan, we had an hour of free time. It was no surprise, but I was amazed to see that the entire large lake was frozen. I debated whether to go for smelt fishing, ride a snowmobile, or do some shopping, but in the end, I chose to ride a snowmobile and then enjoyed some tempura smelt at a shop afterward. Riding the snowmobile on the frozen lake was very comfortable, and the freshly fried smelt was incredibly delicious.
With a little time left, I bought some marimo as a souvenir. I felt that snow boots were essential around the three major lakes, as the snow was deep everywhere.
On the day of the tour, the roads were snowy and icy, but thanks to the skilled driving of our driver, I felt safe riding along. The beautiful bus guide was also very easy to listen to and explained everything well. Thank you very much for your hospitality. If I have the chance to go to Kushiro again, I will definitely use this tour again.
釧路一人旅。駅前のビジネスホテルを2泊予約。2日目は時間がたっぷりたあるので、釧路市内をぶらぶらしててももったいないので、観光ツアーを探していたら今回のツアーを見つけました。
何と希望通りの釧路発摩周湖、屈斜路湖、阿寒湖3大湖を巡るツアーでした。
外国人の方が多いとのことでしたが日本の方も半分ぐらいいました。
全体の感想としては、一人旅でも十分満足のできる安心のツアーでした。
ネタバレになりますが、ツアーの体験談を書きたいと思います。
最初に訪れた鶴見台では間近に多くのタンチョウが見れて感動しました。さらに飛び立つ瞬間も見れてたのでよかったです。
ガイドさんおすすめのタンチョウソフトクリームは見た目がタンチョウになっていて味もとても美味しかったです。
摩周湖方面に近づくと晴れから一転して吹雪になり、残念ながら神秘の摩周湖を見ることができませんでしたが、休憩所で食べたガイドさんおすすめの摩周ブルーのソフトクリームは美味しかったです。
お昼休憩は道の駅摩周温泉で豚丼弁当をいただきましたがとても美味しかったです。
硫黄山ではバスを降りた途端、硫黄の臭いが鼻にツンときました。山のあちこちで噴煙が上がっており、割と間近まで見に行けますが、かなり雪深いので歩くのが困難な箇所がありました。硫黄の温泉で作られたガイドさんおすすめの温泉蒸したまごはアツアツで美味しかったです。
ラストの阿寒湖ではフリータイムが1時間ありました。当たり前なのてすが、大きな湖がすべて凍っていてびっくりしました。
わかさぎ釣りかスノーモービルをするか買い物をするかか迷いましたが、結局、スノーモービルをしたあと、お店でわかさぎの天ぷらを食べました。氷のはった湖の上を走るスノーモービルはとても快適でした。また、揚げたてのわかさぎは最
高に美味しかったです。
残り少し時間があったのでマリモをお土産を買いました。
3大湖周辺はどこも雪が深いのでスノーブーツが必須だと感じました。
当日は雪道やアイスバーンの道でしたが安心して乗ってられるほど上手な運転をしていただいたドライバーさんと、話しがとても聞きやすく説明が上手な美人バスガイドさん、お世話になりどうもありがとうございました。
また釧路へ行く機会があれば次も絶対利用させていただきます。

Even with children, you can have a great time! We caught a lot of wakasagi while fishing with traps, and when we made tempura, it was exquisite! Also, both the tour guide and the driver were very accommodating, and I would love to participate again.
子供がいても、十分楽しめます!ワカサギの仕掛け釣りでは、たくさん釣れて、天ぷらにすると、絶品!また、ツアーガイドも運転手も対応良くてまた参加したいと思いました。

I wanted to go to Kushiro in winter, but I live in an area where it doesn't snow, and I thought driving on snowy roads with a rental car would be impossible. However, after learning about this plan, I quickly signed up, and I think it was a great decision.
The bus guide's explanations were precise and delivered in a pleasant manner, and they pointed out places and things that I would have missed if I were driving a rental car. Most of the participants were from overseas, but we were able to enjoy the sightseeing smoothly without any confusion.
The duration of our stay was just right; we had enough time to properly sightsee, visit restrooms, and shop for souvenirs without feeling rushed, allowing us to enjoy various places efficiently. The lunch was also delicious.
It was convenient for staying at a hot spring by Lake Akan, as they dropped us off right in front of the hotel, which saved us the effort of moving with large luggage like carry-on bags, letting us focus on sightseeing.
I also used the coupon for activities at Lake Akan for whitebait fishing the next day, which was quite helpful.
Thanks to this, I had a very enjoyable winter trip to Kushiro. Thank you very much. I want to go again.
冬の釧路に行きたいけど、雪が降らない地域に住んでおり、レンタカーでの雪道運転は無理と思っていましたが、こちらのプランを知り早速申し込み、大正解だったと思います。
バスガイドさんのお話や説明が的確だし、話し方も心地よく、レンタカーでの移動だと気づかずに通り過ぎたような場所や事柄も教えていただけたし、
殆どが外国からのお客様でしたが、混乱する事なく、スムーズに観光をする事ができました。
滞在時間も絶妙で、ちゃんと観光してトイレやお土産なども見ても時間が過不足無く、効率的にあちこちを堪能できました。
昼食も美味しくいただきました。
阿寒湖の温泉に宿泊するのにも便利で、ホテルの前で降ろして下さるので、
キャリーバッグなど大きな荷物を持って移動する労力も省け、観光に集中できました。
阿寒湖でのアクティビティに使えるクーポン券も、翌日ワカサギ釣りに使いましたが、結構助かりました。
おかげさまで冬の釧路旅行を非常に楽しく過ごせました。ありがとうございました。また行きたいです。

Excellent driver who was very helpful and thoughtful. Used Google Translate proficiently. We saw many cranes, and often quite close. A great day out!
Thank you
When coming to Kushiro, I am waiting for the time of coming well again.

You can easily experience the great nature of Hokkaido. A veteran guide is with you and teaches you everything. There were many solo travelers and families. I think it's more economical and efficient than traveling by rental car. Please be sure to try it at least once.
北海道の大自然を手軽に体験できます。
ベテランのガイドさんが付いていて、何でも教えてくれます。一人旅の方や家族連れが多かったです。レンタカーでまわるより経済的かつ効率的と思います。ぜひ一度体験してみて下さい。

I was able to enjoy the tour with a Taiwanese woman I met while staying at the guesthouse, who was also participating in the same tour!
Since I can't drive, I was grateful to be able to take a bus tour for a route that required driving.
ゲストハウスで宿泊した時に知り合った台湾の女性が同じツアーに参加される方で一緒に楽しむことができました!
車の運転ができないので、今回車を運転しないと回れないコースをバスツアーで回ることができまして、ありがたかったです!

I used the course from Kushiro to Kushiro Airport. From the bus window, I was able to see red-crowned cranes and Ezo deer. The regular sightseeing bus route stops at Kushiro Airport at the end, but I learned from the bus announcement that it was also possible to transfer to a route bus heading to the airport from Lake Mashu, so I decided to change to the route bus at the last minute. They took me to the bus center for the route bus, and they also stored my luggage for free, allowing me to enjoy Lake Mashu until the bus departure time.
釧路から釧路空港までのコースを利用しました。
バスの車窓からですが、丹頂鶴と蝦夷鹿を見ることができました。
定期観光バスのルートで最後に釧路空港に立ち寄るのですが、摩周湖から空港に向かう路線バスに乗り換えも可能とバス中の案内でわかり、路線バスを利用することに急遽変更しました。路線バスのバスセンターまで送って頂き、荷物も無料で預かって頂けバスの時刻まで摩周湖を楽しみました。

The weather was wonderful, and the scenery was beautiful everywhere. We took a sightseeing boat on Lake Akan, and on the way back, we took a different bus, but there was a detailed explanation, so I didn't get lost at all.
お天気に恵まれどこもきれいな景色でした。阿寒湖で遊覧船に乗ったため、帰りは違うバスに乗りましたが、その際も丁寧な説明があり、特に迷うことはありませんでした。
