Okinawa
The guide's tips on how to enjoy each destination and stories related to Okinawa were helpful and enjoyable. It was windy and cold near the sea. Food was being sold at various locations. The Hikan cherry blossoms were also in bloom. I'm glad we took the bus since it would have taken over two hours to drive from Naha.
ガイドさんの、各行き先での楽しみ方や沖縄にまつわるお話がためになり、楽しかったです。
海の近くは風が強くて寒かったです。
各所で食べ物を販売していました。
ヒカン桜も咲いていました。
那覇から車で行ったら2時間以上運転しないといけないのでバスで行って良かったです。
It was a tour that balanced both the great nature of Yanbaru and its challenges. There was a proper explanation of each sightseeing spot in advance, and thanks to the unique and friendly explanations from the guides, I was able to enjoy the experience even more with a background knowledge.
やんばるの大自然と課題、両方をバランス良く詰め込んで頂いたツアーでした。各観光地の事前説明もきちんとあり、観光地の説明員さんの個性的でフレンドリーな説明のおかげで背景知識を持った上でより一層楽しめました。
It was great to efficiently tour each island while hitting all the key points. I recommend it for those who may have concerns about their stamina or are visiting the islands for the first time.
各島、ポイントを押さえて効率良く周遊できて良かったです。体力に不安な方や初めての島巡りにおすすめです。
I participated with my mother on our first trip to Okinawa. Since I had only been to the Churaumi Aquarium before, it was also my first experience at Manza Beach and the "Submarine Jr. II," which I really enjoyed. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but we could explore the submarine without getting wet even in the rain, and we saw sea turtles. We were able to take our time at the Churaumi Aquarium, but we got caught up with a group of school trip students at the souvenir shop, which delayed our checkout, so I gave up on buying souvenirs. Therefore, if you want to buy souvenirs, it might be better to go for checkout early.
初沖縄の母と一緒に参加しました。私自身も美ら海水族館しか行ったことがなかったので、万座毛や万座ビーチの「サブマリンJrⅡ」も初体験で楽しめました。あいにくのお天気でしたが、サブマリンは雨でも濡れずに見学できますし、ウミガメも見えました。美ら海水族館は比較的ゆっくり見れましたが、お土産売り場で修学旅行生の団体とバッティングしお会計が進まず、お土産は諦めました。なので、お土産を買いたい方は早めにお会計に行かれる方が良いかもしれませんね。
If you're looking for a purpose like the one mentioned in the title, it might be a good opportunity to participate. Although the schedule is a bit tight, if you see it as packed with activities, it’s not a bad thing. Personally, it was a valuable opportunity to see the Okinawa rail.
タイトルに書いたような目的なら参加してみるのもいい機会かもしれません。予定がややタイトなきらいはありますが、盛り沢山と捉えれば悪くはありません。
個人的には、やんばるくいなをみることができた、貴重な機会でした。
I had a great time. The guide was very experienced and explained things while occasionally playing the sanshin. It was a sunny day, so the scenery was fantastic, and there were moments when the guide took photos for us. The optional glass-bottom boat ride was also wonderful; the sea was very beautiful, and we were able to see sea turtles and coral.
とても楽しかったです。ガイドさんがとても慣れた方で、ところどころ三線も引きながら説明してくださいました。この日は晴れていたので景色も最高で、ガイドさんが写真を撮ってくださる場面もありました。オプションで乗ったグラスボートも、海がとても綺麗でウミガメや珊瑚なども見ることができました。
There were 10 participants on the tour, and since we had a large bus, the seats were spacious. The tour guide did not accompany us, but the tour conductor provided information about the sightseeing spots, and it was enjoyable thanks to their extensive knowledge. There were also foreign participants, but the tour conductor explained everything in fluent English, so we were able to gather and tour on time without any issues. The weather was cloudy with strong winds and occasional rain, but I was glad we could see all the sights. It's a pity that if the weather had been better, we could have seen even more wonderful views, but I would like to participate again for a revenge tour.
ツアー参加者は10名で大型バスだったので座席はゆったりでした。
バスガイドさんは同乗せずに添乗員さんが観光地の案内などしてくれましたが、知識豊かで楽しく過ごせました。
外国人の方もいましたが、添乗員さんが流暢な英語で説明していたので集合なども問題なく時間通りに観光できました。
当日は曇っていて風が強く時々雨が降る天候でしたがひと通り観光できて良かったです。
天候が良ければもっと素晴らしい景色を見られたと思うと残念ですが、またリベンジでまた参加したいと思います。
Since I was traveling alone and didn't have a car, I was glad to be able to visit many tourist spots in a short amount of time. Both the guide and the driver were great, and I had a lot of fun.
ひとり旅だったので、車もないし、短い時間で、
沢山の観光地を回ってもらって良かったです。
ガイドさんも運転手さんもとても良かった、楽しかったです
I was able to spend time very leisurely, forgetting about the clock.
It was great that there were many local dishes prepared for lunch.
I recommend exploring Taketomi Island by renting a bicycle.
時間を忘れてとてものんびりと過ごせました。
お昼ごはんは郷土料理がたくさん用意されていて良かったです。
竹富島はレンタサイクルで巡るのをオススメします。
The guide's thoughtfulness was wonderful, and I had a great time wherever we went! If I have the opportunity to go to Okinawa again, I would like to rely on their services once more.
ガイドさんの気遣いが素晴らしく、何処に行っても楽しかったです!また沖縄に行く機会があったらまたお世話になりたいと思います。
We participated as a family. It was amazing. The aquarium and Kouri Island were particularly great. The additional meals were delicious as well. If I have the chance, I will definitely join again. I highly recommend this course.
家族で参加しました。最高でした。水族館と古宇利島は特に良かったです。追加での食事も美味しかったです。機会があればまた、参加させて頂きます。
是非お勧めのコースです。
If you get separated a little, the person in charge will change depending on the location, so be careful. It might be difficult for those who are not used to it, but I think the content is good. Those who have trouble keeping up should be cautious.
ちょっとはぐれると代わる代わるだから場所で担当変わるし気をつけて、なれない人は無理かも、内容は良いと思います。飲み込み悪い方は気を付けて
We were blessed with warm weather and no wind. I didn't have high expectations for lunch, but it was very delicious. The guide sang several songs, and the snake lute was wonderful. I would like to participate again.
温暖で、風も無く良い天候に恵まれました。
昼食も期待してませんでしたが、大変美味しいかったです。ガイドさんが何曲も歌ってくれて、蛇三線も素晴らしかったです。又参加したいです。
It was a very cold day with occasional rain, but traveling by bus was easy. Along the way, I enjoyed listening to the audio guide, which provided explanations at various points, making it enjoyable even on my own. I believe it was when we passed over the Kouri Bridge, and the driver slowed down so we could take in the scenery properly.
時折雨も降りとても寒い日でしたが、バスでの移動で楽々でした。
道中、音声ガイドで所々解説を聞きながら進むので、ひとりでも十分楽しめました。
古宇利大橋通過時だったと思いますが、ゆっくり速度を落として通過してくださったので、しっかりと景色を見ることができました。
Although the weather was bad, the guide sang many songs and the stories were enjoyable, making for a wonderful time. I was concerned about my companion's footing, but I was grateful for the utmost consideration shown.
天候が悪かったのですが、ガイドさんが歌をたくさん歌ってくれ、話の内容も楽しくとても素晴らしいひと時を過ごしました。連れの足元に不安があったのですが、最大限の配慮をしてくださりありがたかったです。
It was a trip for two with my husband. We were able to relax, and the experience was rich. We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the laid-back warmth of Okinawa.
主人との二人旅でした。のんびりできて、内容は豊富でした。
天気にも恵まれ沖縄のゆったりとした温かさを体験できました。
I escaped the cold and enjoyed a long-awaited trip to the tropical Okinawa. I discovered new tourist spots like Manza Beach and American Village, which felt like a new Okinawa experience. I had been to the Churaumi Aquarium several times before, so I separated from the group, but just the two of us went to the Tropical Dream Center, where we enjoyed the tropical plants and beautiful flowers, truly savoring the island vibe.
As expected from the travel company chosen by Veltra, the staff, including the driver and tour guide, were wonderful. There were over 40 participants on the bus, a mix of Japanese and foreigners (mainly from Asia), and most people exchanged smiles as we passed each other. However, we had to wait about 20 minutes for a group of six young men and women, presumed to be Korean, who were not at the meeting point. At each tourist spot, they returned to the bus just in time, often one or two minutes late, which was quite common. I thought the early drop-off would be quick, but even before we arrived, there was an announcement, and despite the bus stopping, they didn’t get off until the tour guide went to get them. Eventually, they got off without saying anything.
They were likely not part of Veltra's group, but I thought it must be tough for popular tours to refuse anyone. Other than that, it was a problem-free and enjoyable trip.
寒さを逃れ、久々の南国沖縄旅行を楽しんできました。
万座毛・アメリカンビレッジ等新しい観光地も見えて、新沖縄発見でした。
美ら海水族館は以前に何度も行ったので、団体から離れる形態になりましたが、我々だけでしたが熱帯ドリームセンターに行き熱帯植物・きれいな花を見て南国の島を十分に味わいました。
さすがのベルトラさんが選ぶ旅行会社で、スタッフの運転手さん添乗員さんは素晴らしかったです。
参加者もバスに40人以上の日本人と外国人(主にアジア系)が混合乗車していましたが、ほとんどの人が笑顔ですれ違う感じでしたが、途中集合場所から参加した韓国人と思われる若い男女の6人グループが集合場所におらず20分程度待たされ、各観光地でも喫煙のためかバスに帰ってくるのが時間ギリギリで1・2分遅れはあたりまえの様子で、さすがに途中解散は早く降りると思っていたら、着く前に案内があったのにバスが止まっても降りず、添乗員さんがおこしに行って、やっとしばらくして6人で何も言わず降りていきました。
ベルトラさんの客ではないグループでしょうが、人気ツアーも来る人拒めずで大変と思いましたが、それ以外は問題なく楽しい旅ができました。
The male water buffalo does not walk alone, and I learned that it defecates in the water, which was fun to know. The performance of the sanshin was also wonderful. Thank you.
雄の水牛は一頭では歩かない、排泄は水の中にするなど楽しく教えていただきました、三線の演奏も素晴らしかった。ありがとう
I had a very fulfilling day visiting various places since the morning. I felt that the Churaumi Aquarium could have been a bit shorter, but for families, this duration might be just right.
朝から色々なところを回れてとても充実した1日になりました。美ら海水族館はもう少し時間短くても良いように思えましたが、家族づれだと今くらいがちょうどいいのかも知れません。
I traveled from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island, enjoyed the mangroves, and then rode a water buffalo to be pulled to Yufu Island. Thank you, Musashi!
石垣島から西表島に行き、マングローブを満喫してから、水牛に乗り由布島まで牽引してもらいました。ムサシありがとうございました
I was able to easily experience the long-awaited water buffalo cart ride. My child was scared of the water buffalo and hid their face during the commemorative photo, but when I said I wanted to buy it, they kindly stayed with us until my child lifted their face for the photo. I was very grateful for their kindness.
I was able to choose the return ferry time, but due to other circumstances, I selected an earlier time, so I didn't have enough time to leisurely enjoy the town's scenery. It would have been better if the ferry time on the way there had been a bit earlier.
念願の水牛車体験を手軽に出来ました。子供が水牛を怖がり記念写真を撮る時に顔を伏せてしまいましたが、購入すると言ったら顔を上げるまで撮影に付き合ってくださいました。とても親切でありがたかったです。
帰りのフェリーの時間を選べましたが、その後の都合で早い時間を選択した為、ゆっくり街並みを観る時間がありませんでした。行きのフェリーの時間がもう少し早いと良かったです。
I was looking for a tour that I could participate in with my 10-month-old daughter. It was very kind and appreciated that they helped us with getting on and off the boat and bus while carrying the stroller. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the mangroves. Riding a water buffalo while listening to shamisen music and crossing over to Yufuin Island became the best memory of this trip.
10ヶ月になる娘とも参加できるツアーを探していました。
船の乗り降りやバスの乗り降りもベビーカーを一緒に持ってくださりとても親切でありがたかったです。
マングローブの美しさに圧倒されました。
三味線を聴きながら水牛にのって由布島に渡れたのはこの旅一番の思い出になりました。
The mangrove cruise on Iriomote Island was enjoyable. I was able to see trees that can only be found here up close, and the explanations from the staff were clear and helpful, making the experience relaxing and pleasant.
The experience of crossing to Yubu Island by water buffalo was also unique to this location and enjoyable. On the island, I could take photos with the water buffalo, and the timing was just right for a complete tour. The lunch was average, nothing special.
Overall, I was able to efficiently and enjoyably explore the two islands, and I'm glad I participated.
西表島のマングローブクルーズが楽しかったです。ここでしか見られないような木々を間近で見られ、係のお姉さんの話もわかりやすくよかったですし、ゆったりと気持ちよかったです。
西表島から由布島に渡る水牛もここならでは体験でよかったです。島では水牛と一緒に写真も撮れて、時間的にも一周回るのにちょうどいい。お昼ご飯は可もなく不可もなくといったところでした。
全体的には2島を効率よく楽しく周らせていただき、参加してよかったです。
On my first trip to Okinawa, I searched for a tour that would allow me to see various sights in one day, and I participated in this one. Each stop had enough time for us, which I think was great for my elderly parents. Additionally, the tour fee included admission to the Churaumi Aquarium and Pineapple Park, so we were able to enjoy ourselves from morning until night, making this tour very cost-effective. It was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.
初めての沖縄旅行、1日でいろいろ観光できるツアーを探して、今回参加させていただきました。
ひとつひとつの滞在時間が十分あったので、高齢の両親にとっても大変良かったと思います。
またツアー代に美ら海水族館とパイナップルパークの入園料も含まれており、それで朝から晩まで遊んでこのツアー料金はとてもコスパがいいと思います。
とても楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。
I don't drive, so I was lucky to have a bus tour in January. At the Valley of Gangala, they handed out cold sanpin tea tumblers to each person, and the guide was truly wonderful. They walked slowly and spoke clearly, making me feel like I was on an adventure that connected me to the workings of the Earth. It was a place I had wanted to visit for a long time, and I’m really glad it was such a fantastic tour. I highly recommend it! I think winter might be the best season to go. The Saiyū-ōgū and the bus attendant were also great.
車の運転はしないので、バスツアーが1月にもあってラッキー。
ガンガラーの谷は、冷たいさんぴん茶のタンブラーを一人づつ渡してくれ、
ガイドさんがとても素晴らしかったです。
聞き取りやすいようにゆっくりと歩いて話してくれて、地球の営みを感じるような冒険に行ったような気持ちになりました。
前から行きたかった場所で、かつこんな素晴らしいツアーで、本当に良かった。おすすめです!
冬がベストシーズンなのではないかと思います。
斎場御獄もバスの添乗員さんも良かったです。
My first time in Ishigaki Island, and I was able to efficiently visit the islands. I was healed by the sound of the sanshin and singing while on the water buffalo cart. I was worried about the weather and didn't reserve a bicycle, but I was able to rent one on-site and enjoyed cycling for the first time in a while.
初めての石垣島 効率的に島々をまわれました。
水牛車の上での三線の音、歌声に癒されました。
お天気が心配で自転車を予約しませんでしたが現地で借りられ久しぶりのサイクリングを楽しみました。
I leisurely rode a water buffalo cart through the streets of old Okinawa. The staff were well-organized and provided great guidance, making for a pleasant experience. It was a good choice for an optional tour during my stay on the cruise, as the timing was just right.
水牛車に乗って昔の沖縄の街並みの中をのんびりと廻りました。スタッフの方も段取り良く案内もしてくれて気持ちよく過ごせました。クルージングの滞在の間のオプショナルツアーとして時間もきちんとしていて選んで良かったです。
I efficiently toured the beautiful spots of Ishigaki Island, which included lunch. The bus guide was very articulate and enjoyable to be with. I was impressed by the stunning scenery of Kabira Bay. I think the tour price was reasonable and a great deal.
石垣島の良い所を効率よく巡って昼食付きでした。
バスガイドさんもとてもお話上手で楽しい方でした。川平湾の景勝は美しく感激しました。
ツァー代金もお安くお得だと思います。
It was unfortunately rainy, but I was glad to be lent a large umbrella. The glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay was optional, but it felt like everyone was participating, making it hard to choose not to go. Overall, I was satisfied!
あいにくの雨でしたが、大きめの傘を貸していただき良かったです。川平湾のグラスボートは自由参加でしたが、みんな参加する流れ?という感じで行かないという選択肢をしにくかったです。でも全体的には満足でした!
I traveled to Okinawa alone to obtain my open water diving license. Since I didn't have a car, I hadn't planned my itinerary for the last day of the trip, so I made a last-minute reservation to join a tour.
It was my first time visiting Sefa Utaki, and I felt a mystical vibe there, as if I received a lot of positive energy. Okinawa World was just the epitome of Okinawa, with attractions like Gyokusendo Cave, the Eisa dance show, and various other experiences that were a lot of fun.
The tour wraps up around early afternoon, and they drop you off directly at the airport, which is convenient. I recommend it for those planning to head back in the afternoon.
ダイビングのオープンウォーターライセンス取得する為に1人での沖縄旅行。
車も無かったので旅行最終日の予定を決めておらず急遽予約して参加しました。
斎場御獄は初めて行きましたが神秘的な感じでとてもパワーをいただいたような気分になりました。
おきなわワールドはもうTHE沖縄という感じで玉泉洞やエイサーショー、その他色々な体験もできますし楽しいです。
お昼過ぎぐらいに終わるのでそのまま空港で降ろしてくれるので楽ですよ。
午後お帰りの予定の方にはお薦めです。
