All Reviews for Transfer & Travel Essentials

As expected, the jet foil doesn't sway, so you can take action immediately after arriving. Motion sickness is tough, after all.

やはり、ジェットフォイルは、揺れないので、着いたあと、直ぐに行動できる。
船酔いは、辛いですからね。

I arrived a bit early for the ticket exchange at the window on the day of the event, but everything went smoothly and there were no issues. It was great that there was a discount available.

当日窓口でチケット交換とあったので少し早めに行きましたが、スムーズで困ることもなかったです。割引があるのでよかったです。

The process was easy, so I would like to use it again. However, on the way back, there were many passengers, and a group of young people was very close to us. We gradually ended up being pushed to the corner, but there were no troubles.

手続きが楽なのでまた使いたいと思います。ただ帰りは乗船客が多く、自分たちのすぐ近くに若者グループが近い距離にいました。徐々に隅っこに追いやられる形で過ごしましたがトラブルはありませんでした。

The weather was nice, and it was a pleasant trip. Just showing my smartphone was enough to issue the tickets, which made me feel relaxed. There weren't too many people on board, so it was comfortable.

天気も良くて気持ちいい旅でした。スマホ見せるだけでチケット発行なので気持ちに余裕が持てます。船内はそんなに人が多くなかったので快適でした。

The weather was rainy, but it was more comfortable than I expected without much shaking. I brought my luggage in a trunk, and it was nice that there was a place to store the trunk. I would like to request this again if I have the opportunity.

お天気は、雨でしたが思っていたより揺れる事なく快適でした。
荷物もトランクを持ち込んだのですが、
トランク置き場もあり、良かったです。
また、機会があればお願いしたいです。

On the official website of Kyushu Ferry, you can only make reservations for the jet foil, but it's very nice that you can also book ferry reservations with discounts.

九州商船の公式サイトではジェットフォイルの予約しかできないのですが、フェリーの予約もできしかも割引があるのはとてもうれしいです。

The second-class ferry has a spacious carpeted area that resembles a kids' space, where you can sit freely or lie down. The route from Narao Port to Fukue Port isn't very long, so I was able to enjoy the boat trip just right. It might have been a coincidence, but there was hardly any rocking, and I was able to spend my time comfortably.

フェリー２等はキッズスペースのような広い絨毯敷の空間に自由に座ったり雑魚寝したりしての移動になります。
奈良尾港〜福江港はさほど長い航路ではないので、程よく船旅を楽しむことができました。
たまたまかもしれませんが、揺れもほとんどなく快適に過ごせました。

Due to strong winds and weather conditions, the scheduled boat may be canceled. It’s always a good idea to check with local tour guides about the operation forecasts and adjust your plans accordingly. In my case, the guide advised me to change my schedule on the day of my arrival, which allowed me to swap the plans for the next two days and successfully complete all the activities I had originally planned.

強風や天候によっては予定していた船が欠航になることもあります。
地元の観光ガイドの方などに運航予想など確認して予定を組み直すことも常に考えておくと良いかと思います。
私の場合は到着した当日にガイドさんが予定変更をアドバイスしてくださったので、翌日と翌々日の予定を入れ替えたお陰で予定していたアクティビティを全て実行することができました。

It was great to be able to travel from Nagasaki to Goto in a short time compared to taking the ferry.

The next day, I had also reserved a ferry from Fukue Port to Narao Port, but unfortunately, that service was canceled due to bad weather. However, I was relieved to receive a short message and a phone call from Kyushu Ferry informing me of the cancellation in advance. I'm glad I made the reservation online here.

フェリーに比べ短時間で長崎から五島まで行けて良かった。

翌日は五島福江港から奈良尾港までのフェリーを同様に予約していたが、天候不良のためその便が欠航になってしまい残念。しかしその際、私の携帯に九州商船からショートメッセージと電話で事前に欠航の連絡があり助かりました。こちらでネット予約して良かったと思います。

The jet foil was very fast. The waves weren't high, so it was stable. We arrived at Nagasaki Port in no time!

ジェットフォイル、とても早かったです。
波も高くなかったので、安定してました。
あっという間に長崎港に着きました！

I visited the Upper Goto Islands and used this service on my way back. Just like on the way there, I presented my voucher at the ticket counter to get my boarding pass. Since I had a second-class ticket, I think it's a good idea to board early to secure a good spot, but if the weather is nice, it’s also great to go up to the deck and enjoy the view. The boat didn't sway, so I was able to spend the trip comfortably.

上五島を観光して帰りに利用しました。行きと同じでチケット売り場にバウチャーを出して乗車券を引き返しました。2等なので早めに乗車すると良い場所を確保できると思いますが、天気が良ければデッキに上がって景色を眺めるのも良いと思います。船も揺れなかったので快適に過ごせました。

By presenting the voucher at the ticket purchase window, I was able to exchange it for a boarding ticket. Although it was second class, the passengers were enjoying themselves in their chosen spots. The sea was calm, so there was no rocking, making for a pleasant experience.

バウチャーをチケット購入窓口に出すことで乗車券と引き換え出来ました。2等でしたが乗車の人達は思い思いの場所を確保して過ごしていました。穏やかな海だったこともあり揺れも無く過ごせました。

I purchased tickets for the first time through Veltra. The discounted price is attractive. Even though it wasn't the day of boarding, I was able to exchange the voucher for tickets the day before, which allowed me to arrive at the port on time for boarding and gave me some extra time to spare.

初めてベルトラ経由でチケットを購入しました。
割引料金が魅力です。
乗船当日でなくても、前日にバウチャーをチケットに交換してもらえたので、当日は乗船時間に間に合うように港に行けば良く時間に余裕が出来ました。

Since the seats were already assigned in advance (not by me), it was fine to arrive at the counter on time. I was worried about the waves, but the weather was good that day, making for a comfortable boat trip. There was a moment when we had to make an emergency stop due to debris being sucked in, but we restarted after about five minutes. It was an incident that reminded me not to throw garbage into the sea.

事前に座席指定もされていた（自分でしたわけではない）ので、時間通り窓口に行けば大丈夫。
揺れを心配したのですが、当日は天候もよく快適な船旅でした。途中、ごみを吸い込み緊急停止しましたが、5分程度で再スタートしました。海にゴミを出してはいけないと再認識したアクシデントでした。

On the way back, it was much less crowded since summer vacation was coming to an end. Unlike the outbound trip, I had the lounging space all to myself! There was plenty of room for a pillow too. Since I was alone, I didn’t have to worry about others and could stretch out comfortably for a nap. I knew there wouldn’t be internet access from my experience on the way there, so I went out on the deck to enjoy the view of the sea and spent my time relaxing. The weather was cloudy again, but the waves were higher than on the way there, and for about 30 minutes to an hour after departure, the boat rocked quite a bit. The vertical and horizontal swaying alternated, which made me feel a little nauseous. The locals even said, “It’s less rocky than usual today,” and after getting used to the wind, I was able to read normally. It was a day with a maximum temperature of 35 degrees in Nagasaki, but I didn’t feel the heat while being in the breeze, which was pleasant. The three-hour boat trip turned out to be a refreshing time. I had given up on the internet, so I ended up sleeping soundly after a while. Ferries take time, but if you can secure space during busy times while traveling alone, it’s incredibly comfortable. The outbound trip during summer vacation was a bit tough due to the pillow battle, but on the way back, I was able to use the space freely and relax. Next time, I want to aim for the off-season and go again. Goto Islands were the best islands!

帰りは夏休み終わりかけで、行きよりだいぶ空いてました。行きと違ってごろ寝スペースを広々と独占！ 枕も余裕であった。一人だから周りを気にせず、のびのび寝転がって仮眠。ネットがつながらないの行きでわかってたのでデッキに出て海眺めたて、ゆったり過ごせました。天気はまた曇りだったけど、行きより波が高めで、出港後30分〜1時間くらいは結構揺れました。縦揺れと横揺れが交互に来て、ちょっと気持ち悪くなった。地元の人も「今日はいつもより揺れ少ないねー」みたいな感じで、ちょっと風に当たって慣れてきたら普通に本読んだりできるようになりました。長崎では35度最高気温の日だったけど、風に当たってると暑さを感じず心地よかったです。3時間ちょっとの船旅が、むしろリフレッシュ時間になって良かったです。ネットはあきらめてたので途中から爆睡。フェリーは時間かかるけど、一人旅なら混雑時でもスペース取れれば最高に快適。夏休みの行きは枕争奪戦でちょっと大変だったけど、帰りは広々使えてリラックスできました。次はオフシーズン狙ってまた行きたい。五島は最高の島でした。

During the peak of summer vacation, the morning ferry was busier than expected. When I entered the terminal, it was already overflowing with people, and I ended up getting a late ticket for the second-class (carpet sleeping area). As soon as I boarded, I headed to the sleeping space, but it was almost completely full. While pillows are available for free rental, there are a limited number, so it's first come, first served. By the time I arrived, there were hardly any left, and everyone was using towels or bags as makeshift pillows. The space was cramped, and it felt like we were all sleeping very close to each other, in a complete communal sleeping situation. The weather was cloudy, and the sea wasn't too rough. For a while after departure, the bay was calm, and I was leisurely reading a book, but once we hit the open sea, the waves started to pick up a bit, causing a slight rocking motion. Even though ferries are supposed to be more stable than jet foils, the summer open sea occasionally felt like a big jolt, and I started to feel a bit seasick. But since I was traveling alone, I endured it, lying down and closing my eyes. The journey took about 3 hours and 10 minutes, which surprisingly felt long. I had docomo internet, and for about 30 minutes after departure, I was able to connect normally and check social media, but as we got closer to the Goto Islands (the real open sea), I suddenly lost signal. I was completely cut off for about an hour and had to rely on offline music and videos to get by. It was a complete digital detox. The signal came back when we reached Fukue Port. Once I arrived in Fukue, the island's air was so refreshing that it blew away my fatigue!

夏休みピークで、朝の便は予想以上に混んでました。ターミナルに入ったらすでに人で溢れてて、2等（カーペットのごろ寝エリア）の整理券が遅めになってしまった。乗船してすぐごろ寝スペースへ行ったけど、もうほとんど埋まってて…枕は無料貸出だけど、数に限りがあるらしく早い者勝ち。僕が着いた頃にはもうほとんど残ってなく、みんなタオルやバッグを枕代わりにしてごろ寝。スペースも狭くて、隣の人と距離が近い感じで、完全に雑魚寝状態でした。天気は曇りで、海はそれほど荒れてなかった。出港後しばらくは湾内が穏やかで、のんびり本を読んだりしてましたが、外海に出ると少しずつ波が出てきて軽く揺れました。フェリーだからジェットフォイルより安定してるはずなのに、夏の外洋はたまにドーンと当たる感じがあって、少し船酔い気味に。でも一人旅だから我慢して、横になって目を閉じて耐えました。所要時間約3時間10分は意外と長く感じた。ネットはdocomoで、出港後30分くらいまでは普通に繋がってSNSチェックとかしてたのに、五島に近づくあたり（外海の本番）から急に圏外に。1時間くらい完全に使えなくなって、音楽も動画もオフラインでしのぐしかなかった。完全にデジタルデトックス状態。電波復活したのは福江港でした。福江に着いたら、疲れも吹き飛ぶくらい島の空気が気持ちよかったです！

It takes longer than the jet foil, but even though the wind was strong and the waves were high, it was comfortable without much rocking. It was convenient because I could make a reservation in advance.

ジェットフォイルより時間はかかりますが、風が強くて波が高かったですが、そんなに揺れずに快適でした。
予約が先にできるので便利でした。

It was convenient to be able to make a reservation in advance. Since I stopped by Fukue along the way, it took quite a bit longer (five hours) than the jet foil, but the price was reasonable and it was comfortable.

先行で予約ができて便利でした。
途中福江に寄るのでジェットフォイルよりかなり時間(５時間）がかかりますが、料金も手軽で快適でした。

I boarded the jet ferry. It was comfortable, and I didn't feel any swaying. The scenery along the way was amazing.

ジェットフェリーに乗船しました。揺れを感じることなく、快適でした。
移動途中に見る景色が最高でした。

I used it for the return trip. The process is simple, so I had plenty of time to buy souvenirs. There were a lot of cars, but not many people, so I was able to relax and take a nap (deep sleep) on the way back.

復路に利用しました。手続き簡単なのでお土産買う時間にも余裕があります。車は多かったけど人は少なかったので余裕でごろ寝（爆睡）して帰ってきました。

It's easy since you just need to present the voucher at the counter. I'm glad I could board smoothly without any waiting time. I want to use this again in the future.

窓口でバウチャーを提示するだけなので簡単。待ち時間もなくスムーズに乗船できて助かります。今後も使いたいです。

The jet foil was stable and comfortable. It was reassuring to have a reserved seat. The ticket exchange at Nagasaki Port was also smooth. By the way, I had also booked the return jet foil through this site, but that service was canceled due to bad weather. However, they responded quickly regarding communication and the refund process.

ジェットフォイルは揺れも少なく、快適でした。指定席なのも安心です。長崎港でのチケットの引換もスムーズでした。ちなみに、復路のジェットフォイルも本サイトから予約していたところ、同便は悪天候で欠航してしまいましたが、連絡や返金手続など、すべて迅速に対応していただきました。

Taking the ferry is a long journey of three hours, but since it takes half that time to arrive, I was able to make effective use of my time and enjoy sightseeing in Nagasaki for longer.

フェリーだと3時間の長旅ですが、その半分の時間で着くので、時間を有効活用できて長崎の観光を長く楽しめました。

I took a ferry to Goto and returned by jet foil. In terms of price, the ferry is cheaper, but the jet foil is absolutely worth it. It's fast and comfortable to ride. It justifies the double price difference.

五島へ行きはフェリー、帰りはジェットフォイルでした。価格的にはフェリーですが、絶対的にジェットです。早くて乗って楽です。倍の価格差を吸収します。

I boarded while having breakfast (with the bread and coffee I brought).

During the trip to the island, I read a novel, and before I knew it, I had arrived in no time at all, haha.

But it was an amazing time!!

朝ごはんを食べながら（持ち込んだパンとコーヒー）、乗船させて頂きました!

あらに移動中に小説を読みながらの移動でしたが、、、ま〜〜〜〜あ、あっという間に着いてしまいました笑

でも最高な時間でした!!

Since I took the ferry both ways, it took some time, but it was a relaxing experience. In the second-class dormitory, they provide blankets and pillows, which makes it comfortable.

行き帰りともフェリーにしたので、時間はかかりますがのんびりとした時間でした。
雑魚寝2等は毛布と枕を貸していただけるので快適です。

It was a relaxing boat trip on a second-class sleeping sheet. You can borrow blankets and pillows, so it's comfortable to spend time there. There are also chair seats available.

2等雑魚寝シートでのんびりとした船旅でした。毛布と枕を借りることができるので快適に過ごせます。椅子の席もあります。

The weather was nice, and the sea was calm✨ It was a comfortable boat ride without any rocking.

The seats were spacious, and there was a place to store my carry-on bag, which was helpful.

天気も良く、海も静かでした✨揺れる事無く快適な船　でした

座席もゆったりしてました　キャリーバック置場があったので助かりました

I went to Goto with the aim of visiting the ruins of Fukue Castle, one of the 100 Famous Castles of Japan. It's within walking distance from Fukue Port, and there are also the remains of samurai residences and a museum by animator Nishimura Kazuhiko, who worked on backgrounds for Studio Ghibli films. It was interesting to stroll around, and there were plenty of delicious things to try, including large fish, meat from the Buta brand, and Goto udon.

The jet foil from Nagasaki Port is convenient and makes the trip comfortable. If I have the chance to go to Goto again, I would definitely use it.

五島へは、続日本100名城の福江城跡が目当てで行きました。福江港から徒歩圏内で、武家屋敷跡やジブリの背景を手がけた山本二三さんの美術館もあり、散策するのも興味深く、お魚大きく、美豚ブランドのお肉も、五島うどんもと、美味しいものもたくさんありました。
長崎港から快適に行けるジェットフォイルは便利です。五島に行く機会があれば、また利用したいです。

Anyway, it's fast and doesn't shake. Since I took the ferry on the way there, I especially noticed the difference. One area for improvement is that the fare is high. If there are any other points for improvement, I would appreciate it.

とにかく早くて揺れません。行きがフェリーだったので特に違いをました。
改善点は運賃が高いことです。改善点があれば宜しくお願いします。
