All Reviews for Okinawa Bus Tours

I am very satisfied after visiting three islands from morning until evening! Iriomote Island had breathtaking scenery that I've never seen before, on Yubu Island I got to ride a water buffalo cart and interact with the water buffalo, and on Taketomi Island, I enjoyed the Okinawan-style streets while riding in the water buffalo cart. It was an incredibly fun and fulfilling day!

朝から夕方まで3つの島をまわって大満足です！
西表島は見たことのない壮大な景色で、由布島は水牛車に乗れて水牛とも触れ合えて、竹富島では水牛車に乗りながら沖縄らしい街並みを見て、濃い1日でめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！

I had mostly only come for work, but on this tour, I was able to learn a bit about Okinawa. It was nice to hear the guide's stories after such a long time.

ほとんど仕事でしか来たことがなかったが、このツアーで、少し沖縄を知ることが出来ました。久しぶりに聞くガイドさんの話も良かった。

各スポットの滞在時間は適切です。ランチのレストランは素敵です。観光ガイドがツアー中に歴史や食べ物、特徴を紹介してくれます。ガイドが日本語しか話せないのは残念です。

Each spot duration is appriopriate. The lunch restaurant is nice. Tourist guide will introduce the history, food, feature along the tour. It's a pitty that the guide speaks only japanese.

If you go alone, planning can be quite challenging, but you can visit all the places. Lunch is on your own, but it was nice to be able to bring food on the bus. The guide was very knowledgeable, and I was never bored during the journey. It's best to pay attention to the scenery of the bridge you pass while moving to Kouri Island.

1人で全て行くとなると計画が大変になるところを全部回れます。
お昼ご飯は各自になりますが、バスに持ち込んで食べられるのはありがたかったです。
ガイドさんの知識も豊富で、移動中も全く退屈しませんでした。
古宇利島への移動中に通る橋の景色はよく見ていたほうが良いです。

It's quite packed, but I think it's understandable if you're visiting three islands in one day. It seems like you can enjoy it more if you take a quick look first and then focus on the islands you liked for a more leisurely visit. Especially, I believe you'll want to visit Iriomote Island again later.

相当詰め込まれてますが1日で3島回るなら仕方ないと思います。最初にざっと見て気に入った島を再度重点的に訪問するとゆっくり楽しめそうです。特に西表島は後日改めて行きたくなるはず。

I had a water buffalo experience on Taketomi Island. It was a small island with few people, and I felt like my mind was really refreshed; it was wonderful. Everyone was kind, which made me happy. The buffalo were super cute and amusing! Since I went in the summer, it was very hot, so staying hydrated is essential! I think it would be good to have something to wipe off sweat as well!

竹富島で水牛体験しました。
小さな島で人も少なくとても心が洗われたような気がしてとてもよかったです。
人も皆さん優しくて嬉しかったです。
牛さんもめっちゃ可愛くて面白かったです！
夏に行ったのでとても暑かったので水分補給は必須です！
汗を拭くものもあれば良いと思います！

The cow was much larger than I expected and incredibly impressive! The lady's singing was also wonderful. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

牛が予想以上に大きくて迫力抜群でした！お姉さんの歌も素敵でした。また機会があれば参加させていただきたいです。

It was my first trip to Okinawa. I was anxious about driving in an unfamiliar place, so I signed up for this bus tour. I was very pleased to be able to see beautiful Okinawa scenery, including Kouri Island and Manzamo. The main attraction, the Churaumi Aquarium, was so large that even two and a half hours wasn't enough time, and I would love to visit again. The large tank with whale sharks and manta rays was truly impressive. I was also satisfied with the many souvenirs I found at the Okashi Goten and Pineapple Park. The audio guide offered various languages, making it a great option for travelers from abroad. The bus guide was very polite and cheerful. Thank you for a wonderful trip.

初めての沖縄旅行でした。知らない土地での運転に不安があったため、このバスツアーを申し込みました。
古宇利島や万座毛など美しい沖縄の景色を回ることができてとてもよかったです。
メインの美ら海水族館も2時間半の時間では足りないくらい広い公園になっていて、また訪れたいと思いました。ジンベエザメやマンタなどが泳ぐ大水槽は迫力満点でした。
御菓子御殿やパイナップルパークでもお土産を沢山見ることができて満足しました。
音声のガイドも、色々な言語が用意されたので、海外からの旅行者にもおすすめです。
バスガイドさんもとても丁寧で明るい対応でした。
素敵な旅行をありがとうございました。

This course was packed with the charm of Ishigaki Island. I don't think I could have explored it all in one day without a rental car. At Kabira Bay, I was very satisfied to encounter sea turtles at the glass-bottom boat. The guide was very kind and I learned about the history and culture of Ishigaki Island. The lunch was also very delicious. I think this was the best tour for beginners to Ishigaki Island tourism.

石垣島の魅力がギュッと詰まったコースでした。レンタカー無しの旅ではとても1日では周りきれなかったと思います。川平湾ではグラスポートでウミガメに出会う事が出来て大満足でした。ガイドさんの案内もとても親切で石垣島の歴史、文化など知ることが出来ました。昼食もたいへん美味しかったてす。石垣島観光初心者にはベストなツアーだったと思います。

I landed on Iriomote Island for the first time, and this tour was truly amazing!!! The woman guiding the mangrove boat tour gave really great explanations. The bus driver's stories on the way to the boarding area for Yubu Island were also a lot of fun, making us laugh on the bus. The stories about the water buffalo on Yubu Island were interesting, and I'm really glad I participated.

西表島には初めて上陸したけど、このツアーは本当に最高！！！
マングローブの遊覧船の案内してくれる女性の方の説明が本当に良かった。
その後の、由布島に行く乗り場までのバスの運転手のお話も凄く楽しくてバスの中で笑いが出るくらいでした。
由布島の水牛をお話が面白く本当に参加して良かった。

The tour includes everything, such as the Pineapple Park cart ride, the entrance fee for the Churaumi Aquarium, and the entrance fee for Manzamo, making it perfect for sightseeing!

However, I intended to take a taxi to the Nakijin Castle ruins near Churaumi, but the parking lot was very far from the aquarium, and there were many attractions, so even with two and a half hours of free time, it was impossible.

I gave up early and thoroughly enjoyed watching the whale sharks at the aquarium, the dolphin show, and browsing the souvenir shops until the very end.

It might not be suitable for those who want to focus on one place, but I recommend it for those who want to see a little bit of everything!

There were many foreign visitors, but there were audio guides in various languages, and the tour guide was fluent in English, so international guests can easily participate.

By the way, there was background music on the bus, so I didn't mind the sounds of children crying too much. I think it would be fine for those with small children.

パイナップルパークの周遊カートだったり、美ら海水族館の入場料に万座毛の入場料など全てが付いてるので観光がしっかり出来て最高です！

ただ美ら海の近くの今帰仁城跡にもタクシーで行くつもりだったのですが、駐車場から水族館までがめっちゃ遠く、見どころも多いため２時間半の自由行動があっても無理でした。

早々に断念し、水族館でジンベイザメをじっくり見て、イルカショーも見て、お土産のショップも回って時間いっぱい満喫しました。

じっくり１箇所みたいって人にはむかないかもですが、少しずつあちこち見たいという人にはおすすめです！

外国の人も多かったけど、各国の音声ガイドもあり、添乗員さんも英語が堪能で、海外の人も問題なく行けますよ。

そう言えばバス内にBGMがかかってるので、お子さんとかの泣き声もあまり気になりませんでした。
小さなお子様のいる方も大丈夫かと思います。

About 20 people participated, including some from overseas. The tour guide explained the precautions in both Japanese and English on the bus. There was an audio description of the spots we visited. Since it was part of a campaign, it was more economical than going to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium individually. We had to stop at the souvenir shop, though...

The tour guide was efficient and managed the schedule smoothly. When I asked for advice, they provided accurate information, which was reassuring. One concern I had was that as soon as we arrived at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, there was a downpour, and those without umbrellas got completely soaked during the 10-minute walk from the parking lot to the entrance. There was no consideration for this at all. For some reason, we couldn't wait under the roof that was just 5 seconds away while they took attendance, leaving us exposed to the rain... An umbrella is a must. The tour guide had an umbrella, so that was fine for them, but I wonder if it was a matter of personality, local customs, or being so focused on time that they didn't notice the surroundings...?

We were able to go through the aquarium within the allotted time. Including the round trip to the parking lot, I personally felt that three hours would allow for a leisurely visit. It was a weekday, but there was some traffic when we entered the city on the way back. We arrived almost on time.

海外の方含め20名程参加されてました。
車内では日本語と英語で注意事項等を添乗員が説明。
訪れるスポットの説明がイヤホンであります。
キャンペーンでの参加だったので美ら海水族館に個人で行くよりお得でした。お土産売り場立ち寄りは必須でしたが…。
添乗員はテキパキと時間通りのスムーズな進行。相談すると的確にアドバイスをくれ安心でした。
一つ疑問だったのは、美ら海水族館到着と同時にスコールあり、駐車場から水族館入口迄の10分程の道中、傘を持参してない人達はずぶ濡れだったのですが、全くの配慮なし。点呼するのに何故か直ぐ(5秒)側にある屋根がある所では待たせて貰えず…度々雨ざらしで待ちぼうけ…。
傘必須です。添乗員ご自身は傘をさされいたので良いのでしょうが、人間性なのか、県民性なのか、時間厳守のあまり周りが見えて無かったのか…？

水族館は時間内にさっと回る事ができました。駐車場迄の往復時間含めると、3時間あればゆっくり回れると個人的には感じました。
平日でしたが帰りは市内に入ると所々渋滞あり。到着時刻はほぼ時間通りでした。

The lunch on Yufu Island included local cuisine and was delicious. I didn't know much about water buffalo, but there was an explanation about them, making it a fun experience. The descriptions of the island and the mangroves were refreshing, as there was a lot I didn't know. It was a fulfilling day where I could experience something out of the ordinary.

由布島のランチも郷土料理がはいっていて、おいしかったです。水牛のこともあまり知りませんでしたが、水牛の説明もあり、楽しい体験でした。
島の説明やマングローブの説明、知らないことが多く新鮮でした。
非日常が味わえて１日充実していました。

It was a very well-organized bus tour! However, it seemed a bit hard for my elderly mother. Since we didn't have much time, I think it was a much shorter trip compared to traveling by rental car.

とてもまとまりの良いバスツアーでした！
でも、高齢の母には少しハードだったみたいです。
時間があまりないので、レンタカーでまわるより、とても短縮した旅になると思います。

No driving! No getting lost! The guide's stories were very informative. The timing was perfect, making it easy to plan the rest of the day.

運転なし！道に迷うこともなし！
ガイドさんのお話しもとても勉強になりました。
時間もピッタリで、その後の予定が立てやすいです。

I traveled alone in the summer, and my middle school grandchild, after hearing about Okinawa, said they wanted to go, so we came together during the autumn break. Pineapple Park was more fun than I expected, the ice cream was delicious, and the dinosaur zone was a hit. Churaumi Aquarium was a classic joy, and the whale shark was truly amazing. Additionally, Manza Beach was particularly impressive! I was overwhelmed by its beauty. Thank you very much. Next time, I will visit with a larger group!

夏にひとり旅で、沖縄の話を聞いた中学生の孫が、行きたーいと言うので、秋休みを利用して2人で来ました。
パイナップルパークは思ったより楽しくてアイスも美味しいし、恐竜ゾーンが盛り上がりました。
美ら海水族館は定番の楽しさでやっぱりジンベイザメは最高でした。
あと、ことのほか良かったのは、万座毛です♪
その美しさには、圧倒されました。
ありがとうございました。
また、今度は、もう少し大人数で訪れます♪

The main highlight of this trip to Okinawa was the Churaumi Aquarium, so I booked this tour that allows plenty of time at the aquarium. Even though it was a weekday, it was busier than I expected due to inbound tourists and school trips, but I was still able to see the whale sharks as much as I wanted. Additionally, I got to see the dolphin show, which made me very satisfied! The staff accompanying us were very friendly, which was great. They introduced many highlights and recommended souvenirs at the places we visited. Thanks to their advice on where to buy lunch at Kouri Island station, I was able to relax even more at the aquarium!

今回の沖縄旅行のメインが美ら海水族館だったので、水族館にたっぷり時間をさいているこちらのツアーを予約しました。平日とはいえインバウンドや修学旅行で想像以上に混んでいましたが、それでもジンベエザメを好きなだけ見れました。加えてイルカのショーも見れたので大満足です！また同行のスタッフさんがとても気さくな方でよかったです。訪問先の見どころやおすすめのお土産もたくさん紹介してくれました。古宇利島の駅で昼食購入を教えてくださったおかげで、さらに水族館でゆっくりできました！

I wanted to drive around Ishigaki Island, but recently I've been a nervous driver and lacked confidence. Also, the local buses run infrequently, so I was about to give up when I found this tour.

While we did visit each sightseeing spot quickly, the friendly guide provided various explanations on the bus, and we were able to visit all the places we wanted.

At Kabira Bay, riding the glass-bottom boat means you can't relax on the sandy beach, but you can encounter cute creatures like sea turtles and clownfish.

Additionally, you can get off at the airport on the way back, so it's recommended to include this on your last day.

石垣島をドライブしたかったのですが、最近は、ペーパードライバーなので自信がなく、また、路線バスも本数が少なく、諦めかけていたときに、このツアーを見つけました。
各々の観光地は駆け足でめぐる感じにはなりますが、感じの良いガイドさんが、バス車内でも色々説明してくださいますし、行きたい場所はすべてまわる事ができました。
川平湾で、グラスボートに乗ると、砂浜でゆっくりすることはできませんが、ウミガメや、カクレクマノミなど、可愛い生き物たちに出会うことができます。
帰りも、空港で下車できるので、最終日に組み込むのもオススメです。

You can smoothly visit the three islands. As mentioned in the reviews, the bus driver on Ishigaki Island was enjoyable to talk to, and I was able to see a baby water buffalo on the Yufu water buffalo cart. I recommend renting a bicycle on Taketomi Island. I think walking along the coast can be a bit tiring.

3島巡りスムーズに回れます
口コミにあるとおり、石垣島バスドライバーの話も楽しく、由布水牛車では水牛の子供も見れました
竹富島はレンタサイクルをおすすめします
徒歩で海岸沿いに散策するのは、ちょっとしんどいと思います

This was my first time booking a bus tour on my fourth visit to Okinawa. The tour was packed with popular sightseeing spots in just one day, making it a great deal. The time spent at each attraction was just right, and considering the ticket prices and transportation costs, it was worth more than the price! If you go individually, purchasing tickets can take a lot of time, but we were able to enter without any waiting. Since I participated during a three-day weekend, the parking seemed crowded, but we were able to get in quickly because we were on the bus. I recommend joining if you have two or more sightseeing spots you want to visit!

沖縄訪問4回目にして初めてバスツアーを予約させていただきました。
定番の観光地が1日にギュッと詰まっていて、お得なツアーでした。
各観光時間もちょうど良く、チケット代や交通費を考えてもお値段以上でした！
個人で行くと時間のかかるチケット購入も待ち時間無く入れました。
三連休で参加したので駐車場が混んでいたようですがバスなのですぐに入れました。
行きたい観光地が２つ以上あれば参加をオススメします！

This trip is very interesting; we could spend a bit more time at the aquarium. Next time, I want to participate in other Okinawa itineraries, such as going out to the sea or diving...

今回の旅行はとても面白いです、水族館はもう少し時間を残すことができます。次回は海に出たりダイビングしたりするなど、他の沖縄の旅程に参加したい⋯⋯⋯⋯

I participated in this tour because I wanted to explore the island smoothly during my honeymoon.

I was worried about whether there would be something I could eat for lunch, but it was very delicious, and I finished it in no time! The champuru was the best I had on this trip.

The drivers of the bus, boat, and water buffalo were all very entertaining, and I really felt that joining this tour was a great decision.

We chose to bike around Taketomi Island, but even with our confidence in reading maps, we got lost, so it might be better to head back a little earlier. We were able to ride around the sea and the Nishi Sanzan Bridge, and we also enjoyed a mango smoothie in the center, so choosing to bike was definitely the right choice!

新婚旅行で、島をスムーズに巡りたくて
参加しましました。

お弁当は食べれるものがあるか不安でしたが、とても美味しく一瞬で完食してしまいました！
チャンプルーが今回の旅で一番美味しかったです。

バス、船、水牛いずれの運転手さんもお話がとても楽しくてツアーにして本当によかったと思いました。

竹富島は自転車コースにしましたが、地図に自身のある私達でも迷ったので、少し早めに帰路についたほうがいいかもしれません。海や西桟橋を廻り、中心でマンゴースムージーも飲めたので、自転車にして正解でした！

I was planning to wrap up my last day in Okinawa with a tour and then head straight to the airport, but… I was told that since it was the first day of a three-day weekend and a festival, I might not be able to return on time, which was concerning. However, they offered various consultations and gave me advice.

In the end, I decided to leave the tour at the last sightseeing spot, the Churaumi Aquarium, and took a shuttle bus to the airport, successfully finishing my trip!

Even though I had to get off partway, it turned out to be a very enjoyable time. Thank you so much!!

沖縄最終日をツアーで締めくくり、そのまま飛行機で帰る予定でしたが…
その日は三連休初日とお祭りが重なってるので時間通りに帰ってこれないかもしれないと言われ困っていると、いろいろ相談に乗ってくれ、アドバイスもしてくれました。
結局、最後の見学地の美ら海水族館でツアーを離脱しシャトルバスで空港まで行き、無事に旅行を終わらせることができました!

途中で降りることになってしまいましたが、とても楽しい時間になりました。
本当にありがとうございました!!

Cycling after 20 to 30 years was fun, but it was disappointing that the roads were confusing and I couldn't get to Star Sand Beach. I also didn't have enough time at the café to enjoy sweets, only having juice instead, which was a letdown.

20〜30年ぶりのサイクリングは、楽しかったけれど、道がわかりにくくて、星砂のビーチに行けなくて残念でした
時間が、足りなくてカフェではジュースのみでスイーツを頂く時間がなくて残念でした

The tour had a lot of great activities! The guide was really excellent! I had a wonderful time!

盛りだくさんのツアー内容でとても良かったです！
添乗員さんのガイドも凄く良かったです！
とても楽しめました！

Since I was pregnant, I decided to use this service this time. I thought it would be a waste to just see the mangroves and Yufu Island in Iriomote Island and then go home. However, since lunch is included, I believe it's definitely more cost-effective to go on a tour rather than buying the ferry tickets myself, so I'm glad I was able to use it.

妊婦だったので、今回はこちらを利用しました。
西表島はマングローブと由布島だけ見て帰るのはもったいないなと思いました。ただ、昼食もついてるしツアーで行くほうが自分でフェリーのチケットを買っていくより断然お得だと思うので利用できてよかったです。

I was a bit worried that the morning tour on the last day would be rushed, but I ended up having a very fulfilling time at the end of my trip. Both Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley were mystical and felt like I had entered another world, so I'm glad I went. At Sefa Utaki, I also visited Chinen Cape early on, and the sea was very beautiful and refreshing. In the Gangala Valley, I had a great experience walking together with a specialized guide who provided explanations. On the bus, the guide gave various explanations about the sightseeing spots and the routes we took, which made it fun and helped me learn about Okinawa.

最終日の午前ツアーで慌ただしくなっちゃうかなぁと思いましたが、旅の最後にとても充実した時間を過ごせました。
斎場御嶽もガンガラーの谷も神秘的で別世界に来たようで行ってよかったです。
斎場御嶽では早めにまわり知念岬もみてきましたが海がとてもきれいで気持ちよかったです。
ガンガラーの谷では専門ガイドさんと説明を受けながら一緒に歩き良い体験ができました。
バスの中ではガイドさんが見学箇所や通る道で色々な説明をしてくれて沖縄の事がわかり楽しかったです。

I'm glad I was able to efficiently visit the tourist spots in Okinawa. It felt a bit rushed, but I suppose that's to be expected with limited time. The main attraction, the Churaumi Aquarium, was especially great. Both the guide and the driver were very nice people.

沖縄の観光地を効率よく回れたので良かったです。
多少あわただしい感じはしましたが限られた時間で
まわるのでしょうがないと思います。
メインの美ら海水族館は特に良かったです。
ガイドさんも運転手さんもとてもいい人でした。

Since it was a weekday, I was the only participant, but the tour still took place! At each location, the guide explained the efficient way to get around and key points in a clear and easy-to-understand manner, allowing me to fully enjoy each place. I would like to join a different tour with the same bus company next time.

平日だったのもあって、参加者が私だけでしたが、運行していただけました！！
各地点で、ガイドさんが効率の良い周り方やポイントを丁寧かつわかりやすく、でも簡単に、説明してくださったので、どこの場所も満喫することができました。
次回も同じバス会社の違うツアーに参加したいです。

I participated in this tour hoping to create memories of my trip to Okinawa. There were many sightseeing spots I wanted to visit, but since I’m not confident in driving, I thought it was very appealing to be able to explore Okinawa's attractions on a bus tour, so I signed up. At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, I was able to see whale sharks, and at Pineapple Park, I learned about the charm of pineapples. Additionally, the view of the ocean from Kouri Bridge was breathtaking and moving. I really had a great time. The bus guide was also very kind and had a wonderful smile! Thank you very much.

沖縄旅行の思い出になればと思いこのツアーに参加させてもらいました。行きたい観光名所がたくさんあったのですが私は運転に自信がないので、バスツアーで沖縄の観光地を巡ることができるのはとても魅力的だと思ったので、申し込みをさせてもらいました。美海水族館でジンベイザメを見る方ができ、パイナップルパークではパイナップルの魅力を知ることができました。また、古宇利橋の上から見る海は絶景で感動的でした。ほんとに楽しかったです。
バスガイドさんも親切な方で、笑顔が素敵でした！
ありがとうございました。
