All Reviews for Okinawa Bus Tours

I participated alone. I was able to experience Okinawan culture and make good use of my time. I highly recommend this tour.

一人参加でした。沖縄の文化に触れることができ、時間も有意義に使うことができました。とてもおすすめのツアーです。

Had an awesome time even though we barely speak Japanese. Very good value!

I chose this tour because I can't drive, and it allows me to visit distant tourist spots from Naha all at once. The guide provided various explanations and even showcased songs and dances on the bus, which made me fully enjoy the Okinawa atmosphere. There was plenty of time at each tourist spot, and I had a great time. Thank you very much.

車の運転が出来ないので、那覇から遠い観光地を一気に回れるこのツアーを選びました。
バスの中でもガイドさんが様々な説明や、歌や踊りも披露してくださり沖縄気分を満喫できました。各観光地での時間もたっぷりあり、とても楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。

I applied for this tour to efficiently visit the distant aquarium and other attractions from Naha City! The bus guide showcased Okinawan songs and performed a picture-story show, taught us some dances, and helped us unload our luggage on the way back. The hospitality on the bus was excellent. The meeting times for each attraction were clearly indicated on plates, which was very helpful. I was able to visit various places in a short time efficiently, and the bus was comfortable, which was great.

那覇市内から遠方の水族館と他名所に効率よくまわりたいため申し込みしました！
バスガイドさんが、沖縄の歌や紙芝居を披露していただいたり、踊りをレクチャーしてくれたり、帰りに荷物をおろしていただいたり、車内のおもてなしがすばらしかったです。
各名所の集合時間もプレートでわかりやすかったです。
短時間で、効率よく色々な場所をまわれたのと、バスが快適でとてもよかったです。

It was a fun time hearing stories from the local guide. However, I felt there wasn't much time to spare.

現地のガイドさんからお話が聞けて、楽しい時間でした。ただとても時間にゆとりがなかった～って思います。

I was looking forward to going to the Churaumi Aquarium, but it can be quite challenging to go on your own. However, I think it's a great deal and very convenient to be able to enjoy the aquarium and sightseeing by bus at this price. Our guide, Uchida, was very friendly and cheerful, and I was impressed by how well he communicated with people from various countries. The driver was also pleasant, and I would love to join the tour again if I have the chance. Thank you so much, guide and driver!

美ら海水族館に行くのが楽しみでしたが、個人で行くとなるとなかなか大変ですが、この価格で水族館をはじめバスで楽々観光ができるのはかなりお得で便利だと思います。ガイドの内田さんはとても気さくで明るく、いろいろなお国の方ともコミニュケーションをとられていて感心しきりでした。運転手さんも感じ良くてまた機会があればツアーに参加したいと思いました。ガイドさん、運転手さん本当にありがとうございました！

The route after Seifa Utaki was A. It splits from B, but I wanted to take a glass-bottom boat at Shinbara Beach on the B course, so I signed up for the bus tour. However, due to strong winds on the day, the boat wasn't running, so I reluctantly went with course A. I wish I had been informed about this at the meeting point. When I took the boat from Naha Port previously, the waves were rough and the water was murky, so I could barely see anything, so I was a bit disappointed since I was looking forward to it. However, I was satisfied with the sightseeing as I got to see the Eisa dance at Okinawa World on course A.

せーふぁうたきの後のルートがA。BとわかれますがBのコースの新原ビーチでグラスボートに乗りたくて目的でバス観光を申し込んだのですが当日の強風でボートが出ないということでやむなくAのコースにしました。わかっていれば集合の時点で教えてほしかった。那覇港で以前乗った時は波が荒くて海中が濁っていてうっすらしか見えなかったので期待して申し込んだだけにちょっとがっかりでした。が、Aの沖縄ワールドでエイサーの踊りを見たので観光も満足でした。

I personally enjoy participating in tours, so I had a great time with the easy-to-understand itinerary! I got to walk in the sea on a water buffalo cart at Yufu Island, take a water buffalo cart through the village at Taketomi Island, see star sand on a sightseeing bus, and I was able to do everything I wanted to do (^^). Depending on the hotel, I was able to arrange pick-up and drop-off both ways, which made it very convenient ♩. I was satisfied with the price and itinerary ☆. I made wonderful memories in just one day!

個人的にツアーを参加するのが好きなので、分かりやすいツアー行程で楽しかったです！
由布島で海の中を歩く水牛車、竹富島で集落の水牛車、観光バスで星の砂を見てお土産もらえて、やりたいこと全部出来ました(^^)
ホテルにもよりますが、行きも帰りも送迎が付けれましたし、楽々でした♩
値段と行程で満足でした☆
1日で楽しい思い出が出来ました！

The reasonable tour was great.

リーズナブルなツアーで良かった。xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It's perfectly fine to go alone as a foreigner. The guide introduced us to Okinawan songs, culture, and more. I was very satisfied.

外国人一人で行くても大丈夫ですよ。
ガイドさんは沖縄の歌、文化など紹介くれました。
大満足しました。

Apart from the Aquarium, the pineapple and butterfly gardens are disappointing.
Audio guide requested but not provided.
Save time & money for hotel transit from Onna to Naha.

This was our first time to use veltra and I was a bit nervous what will be our tour like. I am happy to say IT WAS AWESOME!!! The tour guide and the bus driver was really nice. My daughter and I was very happy to the experience and I am already planning to book for our another VELTRA tour. I hope our next tour will be as good as this one.

Due to joining the tour midway through the cruise and needing to take a tender boat, the timing was earlier than planned. However, thanks to the schedule adjustments, we were able to enjoy the sightseeing smoothly. Thank you very much.

クルーズの途中での参加でテンダーボートに乗る都合で時間が予定より早くなってしまいましたが、スケジュール調整していただきスムーズに観光出来ました。ありがとうございました。

I participated alone, but there were no issues with the seating arrangements during lunch. It was a long tour, but the restroom breaks were appropriately timed, which was helpful. The cost performance is good.

1人参加でしたが、特段ランチ時もうまく配席いただき問題ありませんでした。長時間でのツアーでしたが、トイレ休憩も適当にあり助かりました。コストパフォーマンスいいです。

The tour ended in the blink of an eye, but I chose this one because a full-day tour would have been too long. I really wanted to visit Sefa Utaki, so I was able to enjoy it even in a short amount of time. I would like to take my time exploring again when I go to Okinawa.

あっという間にツアーは終わってしまいましたが、1日のツアーでは長すぎでこちらにしました。斎場御嶽にはどうしても行きたかったので、短い時間でも堪能できました。また沖縄へ行ったらゆっくりと周りたいです。

I was able to efficiently tour the southern region. The guide was experienced, and I was able to deepen my understanding of Okinawa. At the Sefa Utaki, I felt a glimpse of Okinawa's unique culture that reveres nature.

The Himeyuri Monument allowed me to deeply learn about the historical facts of Okinawa, which became a sacrifice for the mainland. In this era, where the vow for peace is beginning to waver due to reflections on the past, I believe it is a place that everyone should see.

効率よく南部を観光できました。ガイドさんはベテランで沖縄に対して理解を深めることができました。斎場御嶽では自然を崇拝する沖縄独自の文化の一端を感じられたと思います。
ひめゆりの塔は本土にための犠牲になった沖縄の史実を深く知ることができ、過去への反省からの不戦への誓いが揺らぎ始めている今の時代誰もが見ておかなければいけないところだと思いました。

You can participate with peace of mind even if you're traveling alone. The guide was very enjoyable, and there was no feeling of being rushed; we were able to take our time (＾_＾). I'm very satisfied!

一人旅でも安心して参加出来ます
ガイドさんも、とても楽しく
時間に追われる感じもなく、ゆっくりまわれました（＾_＾）
大満足です！

We didn't have the courage to rent a car for our three-generation trip with my mother and daughter, so we used this service. We were able to efficiently visit the sightseeing points, and the guide kept us entertained on the bus, allowing us to have a wonderful time.

母と娘での三世代旅行で、レンタカーを利用する勇気がなかったので、利用させてあただきました。
観光ポイントを効率よく回れ、バス内でもガイドさんが楽しませてくれて、とても良い時間を過ごすことが出来ました。

I chose this bus tour for a one-day sightseeing trip in Okinawa. The course was mainly focused on the Churaumi Aquarium, which was my top destination, while heading north along the coastline. The sea along the way was indeed beautiful, and I never got bored during the journey. It was a well-organized tour that allowed me to leisurely explore some cultural heritage sites that are surprisingly not well-known.

沖縄1日観光のためこのバスツアーを選んだ。海岸沿いを北上し一番の目的地美ら海水族館をメインにしたコースでした。途中の海も流石にきれいで道中飽きることはない。
意外に知られていない文化遺産にもゆっくりと見物できうまく組まれたツアーだった。

The explanations about mangroves and living creatures were clear and enjoyable. It was a tour with a long free time on Yubu Island, so I was able to see various plants throughout the island. The water buffaloes were cute! The ice cream, cake, and coffee at the café on the island were excellent.

マングローブや生き物の説明がわかりやすく、楽しかったです。由布島での自由時間が長いツアーだったので、島全体の植物を色々見ることができました。水牛がかわいい！島にあるカフェのアイスとケーキ、コーヒーが最高でした。

I was satisfied with how efficiently everything was organized! Since some time is spent on travel, I think it's good to get a feel for the place on the first visit and then take your time on your favorite island during your next visit!

無駄なくキッチリ周る感じで満足でした！
ちょっと移動時間に時間が取られるので、初回はこれで雰囲気を掴んで
次回訪問時には気に入った島にゆっくりするのも良いと思います！

You can efficiently visit the main tourist spots. I think it's a recommended tour for beginners in Okinawa. The timing is just right too.

主要な観光地を効率よく回れます。
沖縄初心者には、おすすめのツアーだと思いますよ。
時間的にも、ちょうどいい。

This tour was an easy, comfortable and inexpensive way to see places if you don’t have a car.
As advertised, the commentary is in Japanese (and there is a LOT of commentary!) and the English headphone commentary could barely be heard. We don’t speak Japanese but the lovely guide always made sure we knew where to go and when to be back on board the bus.

I chose to visit Sefa Utaki, and considering the price, it was absolutely worth it. I think it's a big plus that we could enter Sefa Utaki early in the morning as soon as it opened. There was prior notice, but since there are various entrance fees at different places, it's necessary to be prepared for that.

What was unexpected was that I had planned to go to the beach and visit the seaside café (it was late October, but it wasn't a Monday), and there seemed to be no sign of the café being open. However, I didn't know until I got there that I could ride a glass-bottom boat (of course, there was an additional fee), so it turned out well in the end.

I was disappointed that although the guide shared many interesting things during the trip, when we passed through the field of illuminated chrysanthemums, I wasn't given any information about it (I found out by searching on my own in the car). It was a missed opportunity; it would have been better if I had received just a little information about it.

Because of those two points, I deducted one star, but if I have the chance to visit Okinawa again, I would definitely like to use this service once more. It was also lucky that the hotel I was staying at was a pickup point.

斎場御嶽に行きたくて選びましたが、料金を考えたら全く申し分ないです。
朝早く、開いてすぐの斎場御嶽に入れるのもポイント高いと思います。
事前に告知がありましたが、あちこち行った先でちょこちょこと入場料などかかるのでそれは用意が必要です。
想定外だったのは、選択でビーチの方を選んで海カフェに行くつもりでいたのですが（10月下旬でしたが月曜日ではなかったです）カフェが営業している気配がなかったこと。
でも、現地に行くまで知らなかったけどグラスボートに乗れた（もちろん別途料金ありですが）ので結果オーライでした。
残念に思ったのは、道中もいろんなことをガイドしていただけて興味深かったし楽しかったけど、電照菊の畑の中を通った時に特に何も教えてもらえなかったこと（車中で自分で検索して知りました）。これはもったいないです、ひとこと教えていただけたらもっと良かったです。
その2点があったので☆ひとつマイナスですが、次また沖縄に行く機会があったら、何とか都合をつけてもう一度利用したいです。
宿泊していたホテルがピックアップポイントになっていたのもラッキーでした。

Covers several interesting sites plus aquarium, great for. first rime visitors, enjoyed very much, hotel pickup is heloful.

The trip was perfectly timed with great tour guide. We made our flight on time.

I was relieved to see that there were others participating alone as well!

It became a fun memory!

Thank you very much!

１人参加の方が他にもいらっしゃったので
安心しました‼

楽しい思い出になりました！

ありがとうございました‼

This is my second trip to Okinawa, but it's my first time visiting the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. This time, I signed up specifically for the aquarium. We were able to relax in a spacious bus, and the guide was excellent. The explanations were clear, and they sang beautifully. The views of Kadena Air Base and Manza Beach were impressive and very lovely. The lunch at the aquarium was a buffet, allowing us to enjoy a variety of Okinawan dishes. I also enjoyed the atmosphere of American Village. It was a full-day bus tour, but with such a pleasant guide, I was never bored. I want to introduce this to my friends next time.

2回目の沖縄旅行ですが、美ら海水族館は初めてです。今回は美ら海水族館目的で申し込みました。大型バスでゆったり座れて、なんといっても、ガイドさんが良かった。案内もわかりやすく、歌も上手です。嘉手納基地や万座毛も迫力があり、とても素敵でした。美ら海水族館でのランチもビュッフェ形式で、様々な種類の沖縄料理を堪能できました。アメリカンビレッジの雰囲気も楽しめました。丸一日のバスツアーでしたが、感じの良いガイドさんが一緒だったので飽きずに過ごすことができました。今度は友人に紹介したいです。

On October 5th, I participated in the tour on its starting day. Since it was the first day of the tour, the guide seemed a bit nervous, but they were very kind and attentive, which was helpful. Additionally, there weren't many participants, and everyone kept to the meeting time, making it quite comfortable and almost on schedule.

At the Kadena Road Station, unfortunately, we couldn't see any military aircraft take off or land, but we were able to overlook a base that we usually don't see, which made me reflect on Okinawa's position.

The Ocean Expo Park was very crowded with school trip students and tourists from abroad, but there was enough time to see the main attractions. We were able to watch the dolphin show, but I found the show itself a bit lacking.

I visited Manzamo for the first time and was overwhelmed by the magnificent scenery.

As for American Village, I felt that the time spent there and the facilities were somewhat inadequate for me.

Overall, I think it was a convenient and enjoyable tour that allowed us to easily visit famous places in Okinawa with different attractions.

10月5日、当ツアー開始日に参加。
当日は、ツアー初日と言う事もあり、ガイドさんも少しナーバスになっていらっしゃいましたが、大変親切・丁寧にガイドして頂け助かりました。また、参加者が多くなく、皆集合時間を守り、ほぼ時間通りで快適でした。
嘉手納道の駅では残念ながら軍用機の離発着は見られませんでしたが、普段目にすることが無い基地を俯瞰でき、沖縄のおかれている位置づけを考えさせられました。
海洋博物館は、修学旅行生や海外からのツアー客で大変混んでいましたが、メインの場所を見て回るには十分な時間でした。イルカのショーも見ることが出来ましたが、ショー自体は少し物足りなかったです。
万座毛は、初めて行きましたがとても雄大な景色に圧倒されました。
アメリカンビレッジは、滞在時間と施設が自分にとっては中途半端かなと思いました。

総合的には、沖縄の趣向の違う有名な所を手軽に回ることができる、楽ちんな良いツアーだと思いました。

After looking into it, I decided to go with this option because it was cheaper than going on my own. Above all, the staff took care of all the arrangements, including tickets, so I could enjoy myself without any worries.

Taketomi Island is definitely a place you should visit if you're coming to Ishigaki Island (o^^o).

Thank you for the wonderful time!

調べてみると自分で行くよりもお安くてこちらに決めました。
何よりチケットなど手配をすべてスタッフさんがしてくれるので、迷うことなく何も考えずに安心して楽しめました。

竹富島は石垣島まで来たなら絶対行くべき島です(o^^o)

楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
