All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I used the 5-hour course. The driver who took care of us was truly wonderful, making for a fantastic trip✨️ I was really happy to visit all the famous spots, but he also took us to lesser-known places while sharing local stories. The views were far more impressive than those at the touristy spots. There were places I would have never noticed if I had gone on my own, so I’m really glad I used this service.

For lunch, he made a reservation at a recommended fresh somen restaurant, which was also incredibly delicious and exquisite.

He provided many thoughtful gestures, making the 5 hours feel much more fulfilling, and I was able to fully enjoy Shodoshima. I highly recommend using this service when you visit Shodoshima!

5時間コースを利用しました。担当していただいた運転手の方が本当に素敵な人で、とても良き旅となりました✨️
有名なスポットを全部巡れただけでも嬉しかったのですが、地元のお話を交えながら知る人ぞ知るのスポットに連れて行ってくださいました。観光地化されたところより遥かに感動する景色ばかりでした。個人で回っていれば気づけなかったところなので、本当に利用してよかったです。
お昼ご飯もおすすめの生そうめんのお店を予約していただいたのですが、そこもとても美味しく絶品でした。
他にも細やかな心遣いを沢山していただき、5時間とは思えない充実の時間となり、小豆島を満喫することができました。
ぜひ、小豆島に行かれる際には利用されることをおすすめします！

The sightseeing time was just right. I think there were moments when I wanted to see a bit more, but I felt that every place was just perfect. I was also grateful that we could get off at the accommodation. The guide's stories were enjoyable as well. Thank you very much.

観光の時間が丁度良かったです。よくもう少し見たかったなぁとかあると思うのですが、どの場所も丁度良かったと思いました。
宿泊施設で下車する事が出来たことも有り難かったです。ガイドさんのお話しも楽しかったです。有難うございました。

I don't think the Kannon statue at the first spot (perhaps a substitute for the monkey facility that might be closed) is necessary. I believe it's better for individuals to visit places related to faith on their own.

Instead, it would have been better to visit unique places in Shodoshima, like the Soy Sauce Village or the Somen Museum.

The guide's explanations were very good, and thank you to the driver for the smooth driving.

最初のスポットの観音像（もしかしたら休園中の猿の施設の代替）は要らないんじゃないでしょうか。信仰が絡む場所は個人で寄られた方がよいと思います。
その分、醤の郷やそうめん館など、小豆島ならではの場所に行くことができたらもっとよかったです。
ガイドさんの案内はとてもよかったです。ドライバーさんも滑らかな運転ありがとうございました。

It was a very fulfilling day.

The guide's instructions were clear, and the driver's driving was reassuring. We visited various places in Shodoshima, and it was wonderful. In the end, we walked down Angel Road and saw all the spots we wanted to see. Thank you!

一日とても充実でした。

ガイドさんの案内をはっきりし、運転手さんの運転も安心し、小豆島のいろいろなところを回って、素晴らしかったです。
最後はエンジェルロードを降りて、見たいスポートを全部見ました。感謝します。

I booked a 5-hour course, but due to the timing of the low tide at Angel Road and the location of the hotel where we stayed, we ended up making unnecessary round trips and ultimately couldn't visit the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village. However, I understand that some unnecessary movements were expected in advance, so I think it's unavoidable.

The driver wasn't very talkative, but he provided explanations at key points and patiently waited for our leisurely activities, for which I am grateful.

5時間コースを申し込んだのですが、エンジェルロードの干潮の時刻の関係と泊まるホテルの場所の関係で、無駄な往復をすることになり、結局二十四の瞳映画村へは行くことができませんでした。しかし、無駄な動きがあるのは事前に分かっていたことなので仕方がないと思っています。
運転手さんは喋る方ではありませんでしたが、要所要所、説明をしていただき、私たちの自由な行動をゆっくりと待っていただき感謝しています。

I had a sudden thought and signed up at the last minute, but I really enjoyed it! At first, I considered renting a car to get around, but since there are many narrow roads on the island, I thought it might take a long time to cover all the courses and distances, even if someone from outside the island could drive. As a result, participating in this bus tour allowed me to make effective use of my time. Thank you very much! Next time, I want to join with my friends!

ふと思い立ち、ギリギリでの申し込みでしたが、とても楽しめました^ ^最初はレンタカーを借りて回ろうとも思っていましたが、島内は道も狭いところも多く、島外の方も運転はできるとは思いますが、これだけのコースや距離を回るとなると時間がかかるかな、とも思いました！結果、このバスツアー参加で、時間を有効に使うことができました。ありがとうございました。今度は友達と参加したいと思います！

I was able to have my wishes heard, and I was taken to various sightseeing spots and for lunch. I was disappointed that I couldn't go to the somen restaurant. Also, I couldn't cross Angel Road due to the timing of the low tide, but it was nice to see it from a nearby location. I was a bit worried because I couldn't meet up at the ferry terminal and the high-speed boat terminal due to the difference in meeting points, but the staff from the rental car company kindly helped me, and I was relieved to finally meet up safely.

こちらの希望を聞いてもらえて、見学場所やランチなど、連れて行ってもらえました。
そうめん屋さんに行けなかったのが残念でした。それと、エンジェルロードは、引き潮の時間が合わずに渡れませんでしたが、少し離れた場所から見られてのが良かったです。
待ち合わせ場所のフェリー乗り場と高速船乗り場の違いで、ちょっと会えなかったので、心配したのですが、そこにいた、レンタカー会社のスタッフの方が、親切に教えて、くださって、無事に会えてホッとしました。

The Great Kannon of Shodoshima and Kankakei were not necessary. The Great Kannon was too religious for my taste. I was disappointed that I couldn't have a proper lunch at Kankakei. There was a restaurant inside the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village, which would have been better. It was a shame that I passed by local shops I wanted to visit.

小豆島大観音、寒霞渓は　無くてもよかった。
大観音は宗教色が強過ぎて好みではなかった。
寒霞渓で昼食らしいものは食べられずガッカリでした。二十四瞳映画村の中にレストランがあったので、そちらが良かった。
他に寄ってみたい地元産の店舗は素通りだったのは残念でした。

I was able to visit the main tourist spots on the island by bus, which made it easy and enjoyable. The bus guide's stories were interesting, and at the end, they even sang a song, which really got everyone excited.

バスで島のメインな観光スポットを回れたので、楽に楽しめました。またバスガイドさんの話が面白く、最後は歌も歌ってくださり、とても盛り上がりました。

I had always wanted to visit Shodoshima. When I saw the plan by Mr. Berudora, I had another commitment, but I decided to extend my stay by one night and participate in the Shodoshima tour. The driver and guide for the Shodoshima sightseeing were very kind, and I am grateful for how well they took care of us. However, I was worried that I might get lost between the ferry and the reception, so I took an earlier ferry. It turned out to be a good decision, but I still got quite lost and had to ask people for directions to finally arrive.

小豆島には一度どうしても行きたかったのです。こんなは時ベルドラさんの企画を見て別件の予定もあり、一泊増やして小豆島巡り煮参加させて頂きました。小豆島観光の運転手さんもガイドさんもとても親切で、我々のお相手も上手にして頂き、感謝しています。ただ、フェリー降りてから受付までに私は迷ってしまいそうで、フェリーの時期を一便早くして行きましたがそれで良い随分と迷ってあちこちで人にお聞きしてたどり着きました。

The weather was nice, and just enjoying tea while looking at this scenery made me feel relaxed and happy. The proximity of the sea and mountains, along with the rich nature, allowed me to disconnect from the real world and reflect on myself. I truly believe it was a great decision to go there.

天気が良く
この景色を見ながら
お茶しているだけでリラックスできて幸せな気持ちになりました。
海と山の距離が近く､自然豊かな所が現実の世界から離れて､自分と向き合う事が出来
本当に行って良かったと思っています。

I joined the Great Kannon tour as a solo participant. I was treated very kindly, and I felt happy to experience the warmth of the people from Shikoku 💖. Since it coincided with a three-day weekend, it was crowded, and I couldn't enjoy a leisurely lunch, but I would love to visit the Happy Kannon pilgrimage again. Thank you very much.

I also thought it would be nice if there were more various tours available.

私は1人大観音から途中参加させていただきました。とても親切にしていただき、又、四国の人の優しさに触れる事ができて幸せです💖三連休と重なり、混雑でゆっくりランチは出来ませんでしたがもう一度幸せ観音巡りに訪れたいです
ありがとうございました。

いろんなツアーが，もっとあるといいかとも思いました。

I visited Shodoshima and rented a taxi to tour the island. The driver was kind and shared local stories while guiding us, making for a very fulfilling day. Although I couldn't cross Angel Road, I was moved by the enchanting scenery. The view of the autumn leaves and the Seto Inland Sea from the ropeway at Kankakei was truly breathtaking. At Olive Park, I took photos with the windmill and the blue sky as a backdrop and enjoyed the famous olive soft serve. I was able to efficiently visit the tourist spots, and the travel was comfortable; I really felt that renting a taxi was the right choice. It turned out to be a wonderful trip where I could feel the warmth of nature and the people.

小豆島を訪れ、タクシーを貸し切って島内を巡りました。運転手さんが親切で、地元の話を交えながら案内してくれたので、とても充実した一日でした。エンジェルロードはわたれませんでしたが、幻想的な景色に感動しました。寒霞渓は、ロープウェイから見下ろす紅葉と瀬戸内海の眺めはまさに絶景でした。オリーブ公園では風車と青い空を背景に写真を撮り、名物のオリーブソフトを味わいました。観光名所を効率よく回れ、移動も快適で、タクシー貸切にして本当によかったと思います。自然と人の温かさを感じる素敵な旅になりました。

I was planning to rent a car on my own, but there were no available options, so it was a good decision to book here! In half a day, they took me to key spots and I was able to receive explanations about various places. I also made friends with people from Taiwan. The ropeway at Kankaseki is enough for a one-way trip. The bus guide's smooth narration and even a song at the end made for a wonderful memory!

個人でレンタカーを借りるつもりが空きがなくこちらで申し込んで正解でした！半日で要所に連れて行ってくれ　様々な土地の説明を受けることができました　台湾から来た人とも仲良くなれたし　寒霞渓のロープウェイは片道で十分ですね　バスガイドさんの流れるような案内と最後に歌まで聞けて大変良い思い出になりました

The weather was nice, there was no wind, and the autumn leaves were beautiful. The bus arrived at the final station on time, which was great. It was an efficient course.

天気も良くて風もなく紅葉も綺麗だった。バスは時間通り終着駅にも着いて、良かった。効率よいコースでした。

I requested a 5-hour sightseeing taxi on Shodoshima. When I got off the ferry from Takamatsu, the driver was waiting for me, and we were ready to set off! However, it turned out that the driver hadn't been informed about the itinerary. I explained that the tour course from Veltra included certain locations, but changes were also possible, and we could discuss it with the driver. After that, the driver was very flexible and accommodating, so we were able to efficiently visit all the places we wanted, such as Angel Road, Kankakei, a soy sauce factory, the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village, and Olive Park. It was a great experience!

小豆島5時間の観光タクシーをお願いしました。高松からのフェリーを降りた所で運転手さんが待っていて下さって、さあ出発！、、のはずが、何処へどう回るのか運転手さんは何も聞いてないと言うことで、ベルトラさんからのツアーコースはこういう内容で、でも変更もOKで運転手さんと相談して、となっていますと説明。あとは運転手さんが臨機応変に対応してくれたので、エンジェルロード、寒霞渓、お醤油製造所、二十四の瞳映画村、オリーブ公園、など行きたい所を効率よく回れてとても良かったです。

You can easily reach places that are difficult to access without a rental car by bus. You can stay at each spot for about an hour. They also allow you to bring large suitcases on the bus for free, and on the way back, they drop you off at Shodoshima International Hotel or Angel Road, which was very helpful.

レンタカーが無いと行きづらい場所へバスでお手軽に行けます。各スポット大体1時間くらい滞在。でっかいキャリーも無料でバスに乗せてくれますし、帰りは小豆島国際ホテルやエンジェルロードで降ろしてくれるので、とても助かりました。

This is my second time using a sightseeing bus, and once again, it was the right choice. I believe that for solo travelers without a car, a sightseeing bus is the best option. It allows for efficient sightseeing, and this time, the guide was wonderful, providing commentary throughout the ride, which was truly moving. The driver was also kind and courteous. I felt the price was a bit high, but since it includes admission fees and the cable car fare, I find it reasonable. Thank you for your service.

観光バス利用は今回で2度目ですが今回も正解でした。
1人旅、車なしでの観光は観光バスが1番だと思います。
効率良く観光が出来、今回更にガイドさんが素晴らしく乗ってる間中ガイドして下さり感動しました。
ドライバーさんも親切で丁寧な方でした。
料金が少し高く感じていましたが入場料、ロープウェイ代込みなので納得です。
お世話になりました。

I had a great time visiting the tourist spots in just one day! I felt reassured with the veteran guide. I was also happy to receive the souvenir somen!

観光地を1日で回ることができとても楽しかったです！
ベテランのガイドさんで安心しました。お土産のそうめんも嬉しかったです！

Since it was during the Setouchi Triennale, I communicated to the driver that I wanted to see art pieces that were not included in the course, and they arranged everything to fit within the time frame. Thanks to that, I was able to smoothly tour the island, which I really appreciated. I got to hear stories about the island, take photos, and travel comfortably in the heat. It was definitely the right decision to book this.

瀬戸芸中だったので、運転手さんにコースにないアート作品の見学したいことを伝えて、時間の中におさまるよういろいろアレンジしてもらい、お陰でスムーズに島を観光できてとてもありがたかったです。島のお話し聞けたり、写真を撮ってもらったり、暑い中快適に移動できたり、申し込んで大正解でした。

I hesitated because the tour price was on the higher side, but after reading the experiences of others and seeing the high ratings, I decided to participate. It was a hot day in August, but I was able to efficiently visit the tourist spots while listening to the fluent explanations from the guide in the cool bus. I appreciated the various pieces of information about Shodoshima that weren't included in the guidebook. The tour did not include Angel Road, so I got off at the International Hotel and crossed Angel Road as well. Even during the Setouchi Triennale period, there were few buses, so I think it would have been tough to explore on my own. I'm glad I participated.

ツアー料金が高めで迷いましたが、これまでの体験談を読み評価が高かったので参加を決めました。8月の暑さ厳しい日でしたが涼しいバスの中でガイドさんの流暢な説明を聞きながら観光スポットを効率良く周ることができました。ガイドブックには載っていない小豆島情報をいろいろ教えていただき有り難かったです。ツアーにエンジェルロードは含まれていないので国際ホテル前で途中下車してエンジェルロードも渡ってきました。瀬戸内芸術祭期間中でも路線バスの本数は少なく自力で周るのは厳しかったと思います。参加して良かったです。

Every place we visited was enjoyable.

The monkeys in the monkey park were cute as they were outside of their cages. The feeding experience was also great. Personally, I wished we had a bit more time at the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Studio.

Both the driver and the guide were kind and pleasant, and the Shodoshima somen noodles we received as souvenirs were delicious.

回ったところはどこも楽しかったです。

お猿の国は檻の中でなく野外にいる

餌やり体験も良かったです。

Shodoshima is quite a large island, and since tourist attractions are scattered in various directions, it can be quite challenging to get around without a car. The bus tour I participated in was very efficient and took me to all the places I wanted to see, which was a great help. The connection with the ferry from Tonosho Port was also good, so I highly recommend this tour.

小豆島は結構大きな島で、観光名所が各方面に点在しているため、マイカーでないと中々周るのが大変です。参加したこのバスツアーは、非常に効率良く、見たい場所に連れて行ってくれたので大変助かりました。土庄港からのフェリーとの接続も良く、お勧めのツアーです。

It was wonderful despite the heat. Angel Road has time constraints, so plan accordingly. I think managing your time is important.

暑い中でしたけど、素敵でした。エンジェルロードは時間の制約があるので、計画的に。時間配分が大切だと思いました。

I thoroughly enjoyed Shodoshima. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I believe participants from abroad were able to enjoy Shodoshima as well.

小豆島を満喫しました
ガイドの方の説明がわかりやすく、外国からの参加者も、小豆島を楽しめたと思います

I think this tour is just right for those who don't need to rent a car. It was also great that the connections for the boat were well considered.

レンタカーを借りるまでも無い人には丁度良いツアーだと思います。
船の乗り継ぎも考えられていて良かったです。

It was a hot day, but with a Japanese guide, our tour of about 20 people went smoothly and on schedule since it was a weekday and there were no crowds. It was fun.

暑い 一日でしたが、日本人のガイドさんのもと20人程のツアーで
平日でどこも混んでなく
スムーズに時間通りの行程でした。
楽しかったです。

Since I was traveling alone, I thought it would be better to join a tour instead of renting a car. I was glad that we could visit the places I wanted to go to specifically. The bus guide's explanations made it even more enjoyable. I wondered if it would have been even better if the weather had been clear, as it was a bit foggy.

一人旅だったので、レンタカー借りるのもなぁと思い、ツアーに申し込みました。
行きたかった所がピンポイントで行けて良かったです。(o^^o)
バスガイドさんの説明もあったので、より深く楽しめました。\(//∇//)\
天気が靄っていたので、晴れだったらもっと良かったかなー？と思いました。^_^

It was raining, but the scenery was still beautiful. I was told that Shodoshima doesn't get much rain, so I'm glad I was able to visit on such a rare rainy day.

雨が降っていましたが、それでも綺麗な景色でした。
小豆島はあまり雨が降らないと教えてもらったので、貴重な雨の日に行けて良かったです。

I explored the highlights of Shodoshima in one day. The monkeys were adorable, and the scenery of Kankakei was beautiful and amazing! In the afternoon, I was very satisfied with my day as I visited the Olive Park and the movie village of Twenty-Four Eyes, which were must-see spots.

小豆島の見どころを1日で周りました。お猿さん達は可愛いし、寒霞渓の景色は綺麗で最高！午後は二十四の瞳の映画村にオリーブ公園と行きたかった名所が目白押しで大満足の1日でした。
