All Reviews for Bus Tours

It was raining from the morning. I managed to see the seabed with the glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay... After that, I just stayed on the bus. I wish they had a separate plan for rainy weather. I was disappointed. It might be better to check the weather forecast a couple of days before making a reservation.

朝から雨が降っていました。川平湾のグラスボートで海底を見たところまでは何とか・・・
あとは、バスに乗ったままでした。
降雨のプランを別に立ててほしかった。
がっかりしました。
２，３日前に、天気予報を確認してから申し込んだほうが良いかも。

Due to heavy rain and strong winds, most people didn't even get off the bus to see the entrance of the jungle, and at Kabira Bay, we only looked for a minute before returning to the bus. At the first cemetery, no one got off, and I couldn't understand the purpose of the tour.

大雨強風で、ジャングルは入口見るだけで降りない人がほとんどだし川平湾も1分見てバスに戻る始末。最初のお墓にいたっては、誰も降りずなんのためのツアーなのかわかりませんでした。

There were limited tours available from Chatan and Onna Village to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I signed up for this tour. At the price of 4,800 yen, which included lunch, it was a well-rounded tour, and I was very glad I signed up. They picked me up on time, and the guide was very attentive and pleasant, making my first experience in Okinawa enjoyable. The bus was full with about 50 people. I was also happy to receive the souvenirs, including chinsuko and pineapple sorbet. Everyone acted on time, so there was no stress from waiting for anyone and being late. If you're unsure and wondering what to do for a day, I recommend signing up.

北谷や恩納村から美ら海水族館まで行けるツアーは限られていたので、こちらのツアーに申し込みました。
4,800円というお値段で、お昼もついていて、内容充実のツアーで、結果申し込んで大正解でした。
時間通りに迎えにきてもらえましたし、ガイドの方がとても気が利いて、感じが良くて、初めての沖縄を楽しく終えることが出来ました。50名程度のバスも満席でした。
おみやげに頂いたちんすこうやパイナップルシャーベットも嬉しかったです。
皆さん時間通りに行動されていたので、誰かを待って遅れたという、ストレスもありませんでした。
もし迷っていて、1日何しようかなと考えるなら、申し込むことをおすすめします。

I was a bit anxious before participating because I thought I wouldn't have the same guide throughout, but it turned out to be no problem at all, and I had a lot of fun. The only thing that concerned me was that we had to wait in line to cross to Yufuin Island because it coincided with a group of tourists. I was surprised to see so many water buffalo there. There was a tea house along the coast of Yufuin Island, and their gelato was delicious. I would love to visit Taketomi Island again.

ずっと同じガイドが同行するわけじゃないので、参加前は若干不安だったけど、全然問題なく、盛り沢山で楽しめた。
唯一気になったのは団体客と時間が被ったので、由布島に渡る時の順番待ちが気になったことくらい。あんなにいっぱい水牛がいるとは思わなかったのでビックリした。由布島の海沿いに茶屋があり、そこのジェラードが美味しかったです。
竹富島ももう一回行ってみたい。

The day I participated, there were fewer than 10 people, which was great because it allowed for efficient guidance. The color of Kabira Bay was beautiful. I was lucky with the weather as well.

参加した日は人数も10名以下で多すぎず、効率良く案内してもらえて良かった。川平湾の色が綺麗だった。天候に恵まれたのもラッキーだった。

Churaumi Aquarium was incredibly moving. The vibrant appearance of the corals, which are growing large solely with natural light, was wonderful. While the whale sharks often steal the spotlight, I wish more people would pay attention to such amazing corals. The sea turtles and manatees are also adorable. The 150 minutes of visiting time was too short. The guide was also very good.

美ら海水族館、大感動でした。自然の光だけで大きく育っているサンゴの生き生きとした姿、すばらしかったです。ジンベエザメばかりが評判になりますが、こんなにすばらしいサンゴをもっと多くの人にも注目してほしいです。ウミガメもマナティもかわいいですね。１５０分の見学時間は短すぎました。
ガイドさんもとてもよかったです。

It costs over 800 yen one way by route bus from Naha to Sefa Utaki, so it's a good deal.

Since it's inexpensive, the entrance fee is not included.

If you're sightseeing in the morning, you can be taken to the airport, so if your flight is in the afternoon, I think it's a good deal.

I was taken to Kencho-mae, where I ate Shuri Soba and did some sightseeing around Shuri Castle.

那覇から斎場御嶽まで路線バスで片道800円以上掛かりますのでお得です。
安いので入園料は含まれていません。

午前の観光なら、空港へ送ってもらえるので午後の飛行機で時間が合えば
お得だと思います。

私は、県庁前まで送ってもらい、
首里ソバを食べ、首里城周辺の観光をしました。

This time, I decided to take this bus tour for a relaxing experience. The bus tour offered a choice between New Hama Beach and Okinawa World, and since I had never been to the Peace Memorial Park, I signed up. On the day of the tour, it rained, so I gave up on New Hama Beach and went to Okinawa World instead. Seifa Utaki had few tourists and felt mystical. Since it was my second time at Okinawa World, I only watched the Super Eisa performance. I think it's impossible to see the caves, the world, and the Eisa in just one hour. The visit to the Peace Memorial Park also felt rushed. I enjoyed listening to the bus guide's stories, and it was educational. I was disappointed not to go to New Hama Beach, but I would like to sign up again if I have the opportunity. The price was also affordable and easy on the wallet.

今回は、楽をしようとこの、バス旅行を頼みました。この、バス旅行は新原ビーチか沖縄ワールドが選べるしひめゆりの塔は行ったことがないので、申し込みました。当日は、雨で新原ビーチは、諦めて沖縄ワールドにしました。せーふぁうたきは、観光客も少なく神秘的な感じでした。沖縄ワールドは、2回目なので、スーパーエイサーだけを見学しました。多分、鍾乳洞からワールド、エイサーを1時間で見学は、無理だと思います。ひめゆりの塔も駆け足で見学する感じでした。バスガイドさんの話しは、楽しく聞く事でき勉強になりました。新原ビーチに行けなかったのは、残念でしたが又、機会があったら申し込みしたいと思います。値段も安く、財布に優しいですよ。

The bus tour was very fulfilling, allowing us to visit famous places in Okinawa, starting with the Churaumi Aquarium, all in one day! The guide provided explanations about various spots along the way, as well as insights into Okinawan dialect and culture, which was very interesting. I was particularly impressed by the experience of playing an instrument called the sanba and learning the sign language for "Nadasoso." The guide was very easy to talk to, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

It's not an exaggeration to say that this plan allowed us to fully enjoy Okinawa. It was my first time visiting, and I was able to experience Okinawa to the fullest. It became a wonderful memory; thank you very much!

美ら海水族館をはじめとして沖縄の有名な場所を一日で回ることができ、とても充実したバスツアーでした！
ガイドさんから目的地に着くまでの道のりにある色々なスポットの説明があったり、沖縄の方言や文化などについて説明があったりして大変面白かったです。特に三板と呼ばれる楽器の体験ができたり、「なだそうそう」の手話を教えてもらえたりしたことが印象的でした。ガイドさんはとても話しやすい方で色々お話しできたのも楽しかったです。
沖縄を存分に満喫できるといっても過言ではないようなプランで、初めて沖縄に行ったのですが、沖縄を十二分に楽しむことができました。とてもいい思い出になりました、ありがとうございました！

Due to the nature of Okinawa, it is undeniable that the weather can be a factor, but surprisingly, you can get a good overview by circling around Ishigaki Island, enjoy a delicious lunch, and experience a cost-effective sightseeing bus. The elderly male guide's storytelling, interspersed with traditional Okinawan music and songs, is exquisite.
As for the highlights, the first stop, the Tomb of the Chinese, felt like just a mere monument and seemed unnecessary. The time spent there should be allocated for free time at Kabira Bay instead. The other choices are good.

　沖縄という場所の性格上、天候に左右される面は否定できないのですが、意外に大きな石垣島を一周して概要がつかめるし、おいしい昼食がいただける、コストパフォーマンスのいい観光バス。年配の男性ガイドさんの、三線と唄を交えたおしゃべりが絶妙。
　見どころでは、最初に訪問する唐人墓だけが、単なる記念碑にしか思えず蛇足と感じました。滞在時間は川平湾での自由行動に振り分けるべきでは。その他はいい選択です。

You can leisurely explore by ox cart.

I found it interesting to hear about the relationships of the cows and the village. Since it's an island where time flows slowly, the speed of the ox cart feels just right.

It's a small island, so I was able to visit Kondoi Beach, Kaiji Beach, and the West Pier as well.

牛車でのんびり回れます。

牛の交友関係や集落の説明など、面白く聞けました。
時間がゆったり流れる島なので、牛車のスピードがちょうど合う感じ

小さな島なので、コンドイ浜やカイジ浜、西桟橋も回れました。

This time, I went on a 3-night, 4-day island-hopping trip in Okinawa. I was really looking forward to the island tour, but unfortunately, the weather was mostly rainy or drizzly from the first day until the end, which greatly disappointed my expectations. We also had to cancel the glass-bottom boat tour. The meals at the hotel were also not great. I've heard that the weather in Okinawa is good in the fall, so I would like to try visiting again around that time.

今回は３泊4日で沖縄の離島めぐりに行ってきました。
とても楽しみに待ってた離島めぐりでした‥が1日目から帰りまでのほとんど天候は雨、小雨　と期待は大きく裏切られた。グラスボートもキャンセルせざるを得ませんでした。ホテルの食事内容も今一。沖縄は秋が天候が良いと言う事ですので次回は秋頃にもう一度行ってみたいと思います。

I was glad that Ishigaki Island could be explored compactly. However, I was disappointed with the coral reefs at Kabira Bay after taking the glass-bottom boat, as they weren't as beautiful as I had expected. I got off at the airport on the morning course, but I had too much time until my flight at 4:30 PM, which felt like a waste. Also, if the afternoon course started a bit later, I think I could have participated on the day of arrival and made it more efficient.

石垣島がコンパクトに廻れて良かった。ただ川平湾の珊瑚礁を期待してグラスボートに乗ったが思ったほどではなく、もう少しきれいなものと思っていただけに残念だった。午前コースで空港で下車したが16時半の飛行機まで時間があり過ぎもったいなかった。また,午後のコースがもう少し遅いスタートならば到着日に参加でて効率よく行けたと思う。

I used the water buffalo cart and rental bicycle set. I was worried about the weather, but despite the cloudy skies, it didn't rain. When I arrived at Taketomi Island by ferry, I was greeted by a bus. Since it was the first morning on a weekday, I felt a bit guilty being the only one.

Pulled by the water buffalo, we leisurely traveled for about 30 minutes, enjoying the guide's explanations and songs. I was a bit anxious about the rental bicycle not having a lock, but I was reassured that "there are no police or thieves," and if there were any punctures or theft, they would bring a replacement, which is a service you don't find elsewhere, so I felt secure.

It was unfortunate that the glass-bottom boat I wanted to enjoy was canceled due to strong winds. Booking the glass-bottom boat set might carry a bit of risk.

水牛車とレンタサイクルのセットを利用しました。
天気が心配でしたが曇天ながらも雨には降られず、フェリーで竹富島に着いたところでバスのお出迎え、平日の朝一番だったので自分一人で申し訳なかったです。
水牛に引かれてのんびりと30分弱ですか、ガイドの方の説明や唄などで楽しませてもらいました。
レンタサイクルは鍵がないのがちょっと不安でしたが「警察署も泥棒もいない」とのことで、パンクや盗難があった場合は連絡をすれば代わりを持ってきてくれる、なんてサービスは他にはありませんので安心できます。
風が強くてセット以外ですがグラスボートを楽しもうとしたのが欠航だったのが残念、グラスボートのセットを予約するのはちょっとリスクがあるかもしれません。

This was my first visit to Okinawa, so I signed up for this tour that allows you to explore the southern part of Okinawa in half a day. The time spent at each location is a bit short, but it was very convenient to see the highlights of the south in just half a day. On the way back, you return to Naha City via the airport, so you can go straight to your flight. I spent the afternoon sightseeing in Naha City and visiting Shuri Castle.

今回は初めての沖縄訪問だったので，沖縄南部を半日で回れるこのツアーに申し込みました．
各場所の滞在時間は少し短いけど，南部のハイライトを半日で回れるのでとても便利でした．帰りには空港経由で那覇市内に戻るので，そのまま帰りの飛行機に乗るもよし．私は午後は那覇市内・首里城観光に充てました．

The bus guide's stories were very interesting and entertaining! In the latter part of the trip, it started to rain, but the driver and the bus guide lent us umbrellas. They took care of everything! It was a wonderful trip! Thank you very much! I would like to use this service again when I travel to Okinawa!

バスガイドさんのお話がとても興味深く、また面白かったです！
旅の後半、雨が降り出してしまったのですが運転手さんとバスガイドさんが傘を貸し出してくださいました。何から何までお世話になりました！とても良い旅になりました！ありがとうございました！
また沖縄旅行する際は利用したいです♪

Was a really great way to be able to see some of the island's attractions that were further away from Naha as we weren't able to hire a car. Really great tour, lovely guides, would recommend to anyone looking to experience Okinawa!

I'm glad I was able to visit three places by bus since I didn't rent a car. However, I was seated at the very back, which made for a bumpy ride and I ended up feeling unwell. I understand that I can't specify my seat, so I suppose it's just one of those things, but it was disappointing.

レンタカーを借りなかったのでバスで3箇所も観光できたのはよかったです。
しかし座席が一番後ろだったので揺れが激しく気分が悪くなってしまいました。
これに関しては指定はできないので仕方がないことだとは思いますが残念でした。

We went as a family starting from February 15. We were able to sit at the very front of the water buffalo cart, listened to the sanshin, and the weather was great, so it was the best experience. The water buffalo cart, Upper-kun, was big... good job! I was surprised at how many tourists there were even on a weekday. It's February, after all...

2/15から家族で行きました。水牛車の一番前に座れて三線も聞けてお天気もよかったし最高でした。水牛車アッパー君大きかった・・・おつかれさま　平日でも観光めっちゃ多くてびっくりでした。2月やのに...

You can efficiently enjoy island hopping.
At the Ishigaki Island ferry terminal, you can pick up tickets for the boat and meals before departing on your own.
First, take a comfortable, spacious high-speed boat for 40 minutes, followed by a cruise on the Nakama River in Iriomote Island, and then visit Yubu Island by water buffalo, where you can enjoy a meal.
The meal was an Okinawan cuisine bento, and the atmosphere was enhanced by the singing of the sea's voice while on the water buffalo.

離島めぐりを効率よく楽しめます。
石垣島の離島ターミナルで船や食事などの切符を受け取って各自で出発。
最初は新しくて広い快適な高速船で40分、西表島の仲間川クルーズ、水牛で由布島、食事。
食事は沖縄料理のお弁当で、水牛では海の声歌付きで雰囲気ありました。

On the second day of my 2-day trip to Okinawa, since my flight was in the afternoon, I was torn between relaxing at the hotel or making the most of my time in Okinawa. I decided to book a plan with an earlier meeting time. After visiting the Sefa Utaki, I had the option to choose my next activity, and since the weather was nice, I opted for the sea. I used a discount coupon provided by the guide to ride a glass-bottom boat. It was a private experience with just two guests, and I enjoyed chatting with the boat driver. After getting off at the airport, I was able to have lunch and do some shopping. It was a great deal for sightseeing and getting dropped off at the airport.

1泊2日での沖縄の2日目。搭乗便が15時台でしたので、ホテルでゆっくり過ごすか迷いましたが、せっかくの沖縄でしたので有効に過ごそうと思い、集合時間が比較的早いプランでしたが予約しました。斎場御嶽後は選択ができるプランで、お天気が良かったので海を選びました。ガイドさんからいただいた割引券を使いグラスボートに乗りました。お客さんは2人だけの貸切状態で、船の運転手さんとの会話も楽しかったです。空港で下車して昼食を食べお買い物もできました。観光、空港下車とお得な料金でした。

I participated with my child. We were able to efficiently visit Seifa Utaki, Shinbaru Beach, and the Himeyuri Monument in a short time. The bus guide's narration was also great. The price was affordable and a good deal. I recommend it.

子供と二人で参加しました。短時間で斎場御嶽、新原ビーチ、ひめゆりの塔を効率よくまわれました。バスガイドさんのお話もよかったです。値段もお安くお得でした。おすすめします。

I had a very meaningful time! The guide was quick and very good at talking, which made it enjoyable. I will use this service again.

とても、有意義に過ごせました！
ガイドさんもテキパキとてもお話し上手で楽しかったです(´ ˘ `∗)
また利用させて頂きます。

Kawahirawan and Tamatorizaki Observatory were truly impressive. I enjoyed a delicious lunch with local cuisine and craft beer. It was also great to have a stopover at Ishigaki Airport, which helped save time.

川平湾や玉取埼展望台はさすがに感動しました。
昼食も地元食と地ビールで頂き美味しく頂きました。
石垣空港で途中下車が出来たのも時間の短縮で良かった。

I rode a sightseeing bus for the first time in a while, and it was great! The guide's stories were really good.

I was able to make the most of the morning, and the price was truly appreciated, thank you!

観光バス、久々に乗りましたが、いいですね！
ガイドさんのお話がとてもよかったです。

午前中を無駄なく活用でき、お値段も、本当にありがとうございます笑

When I specified a leisurely time in the morning, the hotel came to pick me up right on schedule. The water buffalo cart tour was enjoyable thanks to the guide's excellent explanations. I was also free to choose my return time, so I explored the island by rental bicycle and had lunch. After that, they took me to Taketomi Port in time for my boat. Once I arrived at Ishigaki Port, I strolled around Ishigaki City for about an hour and was able to take the next bus back to the hotel. I was able to enjoy free time at various locations and had a great experience with a tour that wasn't rigidly structured.

朝ゆっくりの時間を指定すると、ホテルに定刻通りに迎えに来てくれた。
水牛車の観光はガイドさんの説明が良く楽しめた。
帰りの時間も自由に選べたので、レンタル自転車で島内巡りをし、昼食をとった。
その後、船の時間に合わせ竹富港まで送ってくれた。
石垣港に着いた後、１時間ほど石垣市街地を散歩し、次のバスでホテルに送ってもらえた。各所で自由な時間をとることができ、お仕着せでないツアーを楽しむことができた。

I used this service on my way back to Tokyo. It was great to be able to make a quick round of the sightseeing spots on Ishigaki Island, and it was also nice to be able to drop off at the airport. The weather wasn't perfectly clear, as it was cloudy, but it was still good for sightseeing in that area. The glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay is optional, but I recommend taking the ride if possible. I was able to see turtles.

東京への帰路中に利用しました。石垣島内の観光名所を短時間で一周でき、また、空港で離脱もでき良かったです。天候も快晴ではなく雲でしたが、その場所での観光では良くなり良かったです。川平湾のガラスボードはオプションですが出来るかぎり乗船した方がいい。カメを見ることができました。

I was able to efficiently visit the spots on Ishigaki Island, and the guide's explanations were clear and helpful. It was perfect for sightseeing on the last day since we could stop at Ishigaki Airport along the way.

石垣島のスポットを効率的に見て回ることができ、ガイドさんの話もわかりやすくて良かったです。石垣空港で途中下車できるので最終日の観光にぴったりでした。

I thought the guide's assistance was excellent. Although we couldn't relax due to time constraints, it was a satisfying tour.

ガイドさんの案内が非常に良かったと思います。時間的な制約があるのでのんびりできませんでしたが、満足のツアーでした。

At the World Heritage Site of Sefa Utaki, I was able to experience Okinawa during the Ryukyu Kingdom era. At the Himeyuri Monument, I felt the sorrow of many students who became victims of the tragic war. I want to go again.

世界遺産の斎場御嶽、沖縄worldでは、琉球王国時代の沖縄を体感できた。また、ひめゆりの塔では悲しい戦争で犠牲になった沢山の学徒の悔しさを感じることが出来た。また、行きたいです。
