All Reviews for 1-Day Tours

It was the perfect trip for someone like me who doesn't have a driver's license.
It can be quite challenging to visit so many different attractions, so I truly appreciated being taken around slowly by bus.
I was able to enjoy the scenery from the bus, and the explanations from the bus guide were very easy to understand and informative.
I would love to use this service again.

車の免許が無い私には最高な旅でした。
これだけの色んな名所を巡るのは大変なので
バスでゆっくり連れて行っていただけるのは
本当に有り難いです。
バスからも景色をゆっくり眺められるし、バスガイドさんの説明もとても聞きやすく、勉強になりました。
また利用したいと思いました。

Thank you for your assistance.
In the morning, we departed from the remote island terminal, enjoyed a mangrove tour, and traveled by bus, making for a timely and fulfilling trip.
When crossing to Yufu Island by water buffalo, there was an announcement and they sang island songs, but I’m sorry, I thought they could use more practice.
The lady on the mangrove cruise was skilled.
Thank you very much.

お世話になりました。
朝、離島ターミナルからの出発、マングローブ観光、バス移動と、タイムリーな充実した旅になりました。
水牛で由布島に渡る時、アナウンスや、島唄を歌ってくれるのですが、すみません。もっと練習した方が良いと思いました。
マングローブクルーズのお姉さんは、上手でした。
ありがとうございました。

I went to the Churaumi Aquarium on a tour from American Village. It was feeding time for the whale sharks, and I was able to see them swimming vertically. I've seen whale sharks many times, but seeing them in that vertical position was truly impressive due to their size! No matter how many times I go, I am always amazed by that large tank and the whale sharks!

Since Churaumi is far away, taking a bus tour is convenient, and you can chat while traveling. Plus, the ticket price is included, making it a great deal, so I've used this tour several times. Since I often stay in American Village, I hope more tours departing from American Village will be available.

アメリカンビレッジ発のツアーで、美ら海水族館に行きました。
丁度、ジンベイサメの餌の時間で、縦になっいるジンベイサメを見られました。
ジンベイサメは何度も見ていますが、縦になっている姿はさすがに、大きいなー！と感動しました。
何回行っても、あの大きな水槽とジンベイサメには感動します！

美ら海までは遠いので、バスツアーだと楽ですしおしゃべりしながら行けるし、チケット代も込みなのでお得なので、何回かこのツアーを使っています。
アメリカンビレッジに滞在する事が多いので、アメリカンビレッジ発の他のツアーも増えるといいなと思います。

I was able to participate again this year, just like last year. Last year's water buffalo carts had Musashi and Kojiro, but this year it was Sota and Mirai, and since I follow them on Instagram, it was fun to see their individual personalities. The round-trip bus had a driver who provided commentary; last year it was entertaining, but this year it felt more negative, and I wanted to hear more about Iriomote Island. The bento from Yufu Island was delicious, and overall, I was very satisfied.

昨年に続き今年も参加できました。
昨年の水牛車は武蔵くんと小次郎くんでしたが、今年は颯太くんと未来くんでインスタもフォローしているので、それぞれ個性があって楽しかったです。
往復のバス、運転手さんが案内をしてくれるのですが昨年は面白かったけど今年はネガティブな感じでもっと西表島のことを聞きたかったです。
由布島のお弁当も美味しいし全体的にとても満足です。

The weather was favorable, and the meticulous planning for the bus transfer on Iriomote Island was wonderful. On Taketomi Island, I walked over 10,000 steps. You definitely need comfortable shoes.
Google Maps didn't work.

天候にも恵まれ、西表島でのバス中継が必要で、綿密な計画が素晴らしかった。竹富島は、なんと１万歩以上歩きました。必ず、運動靴が必要です。
gogle mapが機能しませんでした。汗　　

It can be challenging to sightsee with your luggage after checkout, but I decided to use a sightseeing taxi because you can keep your bags on board and enjoy sightseeing hands-free. They not only accommodated my requests but also efficiently guided me to recommended spots, allowing me to visit many attractions in just four hours. Since I could leave the time management to them, I was able to enjoy sightseeing without worrying about my flight schedule. This time, I was attended by a female driver, Ms. S, who was full of interesting topics, making the sightseeing experience enjoyable. It's unique to sightseeing taxis to gain information that isn't found in guidebooks!

チェックアウト後に荷物を持って観光するのは大変ですが、観光タクシーなら荷物を乗せたまま、手ぶらで観光できると思い利用しました。
こちらの要望にプラスしてオススメスポットも効率的に案内していただけ、4時間でたくさんの観光地に行くことが出来ました。
時間配分もお任せ出来るので、飛行機の時間を気にせず観光を楽しめました。
今回は女性ドライバーのＳさんに担当していただきましたが、話題も豊富で一緒に観光するのが楽しかったです。ガイドブックに載っていない情報が得られるのも観光タクシーならではですね！

I participated in a bus tour. It was a fun day visiting various places! I was a bit concerned about the traffic on the way back, especially since it coincided with the holiday season and the Spring Festival. If I get the chance to come back to Okinawa, I would love to join another tour!

バスツアーに参加
一日、色々な所に行って楽しい日になりました！
連休や春節とも重なりかなあ〜と帰りの渋滞が気になりました
また、沖縄に来れたらまたツアーに参加したいです

It's mainly tourist attractions in Okinawa, and there was a shuttle service right to the front of the hotel. The guide was very nice and even shared delicious gourmet information. It was a lot of fun!

沖縄のメインの観光地ばかりだし
ホテルの前まで送迎もあり
ガイドさんもとてもいい人で
美味しいグルメ情報まで教えてくださり
楽しかったです！

We took a hotel shuttle to Euglena Port and then a high-speed ferry to Iriomote Island in 45 minutes. The mangrove cruise was blessed with good weather, allowing us to enjoy the magnificent natural scenery while listening to explanations about the mangroves and interesting stories as we observed them up close. We even had a welcoming sighting of a crested serpent eagle! After traveling by bus, we went to Yubu Island, where the water buffalo cart ride was a timeless experience, and the flowers on Yubu Island were very beautiful. We then took a bus to Taketomi Island, where we rented bicycles to explore the town and see the traditional Ryukyu architectural style. At the Nishi Sanchō, during low tide, we were able to see many tropical fish, giant clams, and sea cucumbers. It was a fulfilling and great value tour.

ホテル送迎でユーグレナ港へ、高速双頭船で45分で西表島へ。マングローブクルーズは、天気にも恵まれ、雄大な大自然の風景を鑑賞しながら、マングローブの説明を聞き、面白いお話を聞きながらマングローブをまじかに観察いたしました。なんと、カンムリワシの歓迎も！バスで移動して、由布島へ水牛車は時間を忘れるひと時、由布島は花がとても綺麗でした。バスで移動して高速船で竹富島へ、レンタサイクルで街中を徘徊し古き琉球の建築様式等を見れ、西桟橋では、干潮の時間で熱帯魚やシャコガイ、ナマコと沢山見れました。
充実のお値打ちツアーです。

It was my first time participating alone, but I was given very detailed information about the sightseeing content, meeting time, and souvenirs, so I was able to enjoy the tour without any worries. The conversations in the car were so enjoyable that time flew by. The topics I was unfamiliar with and found interesting made me want to take notes, as the speaker was very good at sharing information. When I visit Okinawa again, I look forward to trying a different course.

初めての1人参加だったけれど、観光内容、集合時間、お土産など、とても詳しく教えていただき、不安などなく、楽しく観光できました。
車内でもお話が楽しくあっという間に時間がたってしまいました。
知らない事、興味のあるお話は、思わずメモを取ってしまうほど、お話もお上手でした？
また沖縄にいく時には、違うコースも楽しみたいと思います

It's early in the morning, but the highlights of the famous island were well organized. However, the sightseeing time on Takefumi Island was short due to the ferry schedule.

朝早いですが、有名な島の見所がまとまっていました
ただ、竹冨島の観光時間がフェリーの都合で短かったです

The hotel shuttle service was very kind and helpful. The bus tour of Taketomi Island was a bit rushed, but I think it's a great tour that covers the highlights for first-time visitors.

ホテルの送迎も含めてとても親切にしてもらえました。
竹富島のバス観光は少し慌ただしかったですが、初めて訪れる人にはいいとこ取りのいいツアーだと思います。

I felt that two hours was a bit short. Three hours would have been better.
I was a little disappointed because I thought the carts at Nago Pineapple Park would be like those at a golf course.
Overall, I think it was a good value tour.

２時間では短い気がしました。３時間でよかったです
ナゴパイナップルパークのカートはゴルフ場にあるカートみたいのだと
思っていたのでちょっとがっかりでした
全体的にはお得なツアーだったと思います

We participated in a tour with our three-generation family, including members in their 70s, 40s, and 20s.

We really enjoyed the mangrove cruise and the water buffalo cart ride, as there were plenty of explanations provided, making it a great experience for us first-time visitors.

The itinerary was packed with activities we wanted to experience, and we were satisfied with the price.

We visited in February when the temperature was around 20°C and it was cloudy, so the mangrove cruise felt chilly without a jacket due to the wind.

Having lunch included and being able to return to Ishigaki Island by 2:30 PM was convenient and appreciated.

70代、40代、20代の3世代家族旅行でツアーに参加しました。

マングローブクルーズでも水牛車でもたくさん解説が聞けるので、初めて訪れるわたしたちはとても楽しめました。

体験したい内容がぎゅっとつまっていて、お値段的にも満足です。

訪れたのが2月で気温20℃くもりのお天気で、マングローブクルーズは風を受けるので上着がないと寒く感じました。

昼食付きなのも、14時半に石垣島に戻ってこれるのも楽でよかったです。

It was a one-day tour, but the time allocation was just right, which was great. The bus guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I really appreciated it. I will use this service again. Thank you very much.

1日観光でしたが、ちょうど良い時間配分で
良かったです。
バスガイドさんの説明もわかりやすく
利用させていただき本当に良かったです。
また利用させていただきます。
ありがとうございました。

This was my first time visiting Ishigaki Island, and I traveled alone. Since I didn't have much time, I chose a sightseeing bus to efficiently tour the island's attractions. I had done some research on the places we would visit, but I think you can enjoy it fully without any preparation since the guide provides information.

For an additional 1,000 yen, there was also time to ride a glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay, and the lunch set allowed me to experience the flavors of Ishigaki Island, which was delicious. I was able to learn about the highlights and history, so I feel it was the best choice for my first visit. (It was cloudy, so if it had been sunny, I would have rated it even higher... I apologize for that since it's something beyond the company's control.) By the way, the tour ended just after 2 PM, allowing me to catch the 3 PM ferry to Taketomi Island.

初めての石垣島観光、一人旅でした。
時間もあまりなかったこともあり、効率的に石垣島の名所を巡れるように定期観光バスを選択しました。
事前にどこをまわるかもわかっているので、それなりに下調べもしましたが、ガイドさんが案内してくれるので、何も準備しなくても十分に楽しめると思います。
１０００円のオプションになりますが、川平湾のグラスボートに乗る時間もあり、石垣島の味力を感じる昼食もセットなのもおいしいですね。
見どころや歴史なども学ぶことができるので、初めての訪問にはベストな選択だったと感じています。（くもりの天気だったので、もし晴れていたら最高評価です・・会社の力で変えられない”てん”なので申し訳ありませんが）
ちなみに２時すぎに終了するので、３時の船で竹富島にも渡ることができました。

The water buffalo tour was great, and I really enjoyed the slow pace of Taketomi. The guide's performance on the sanshin was also excellent and fun, so next time I want to rent a bicycle and explore the island's surroundings and see the star sand on the beach. The townscape is also very soothing.

水牛ツアーは、とても、竹富のゆっくり時間を堪能出来て良かったです
ガイドさんの三線も、上手で楽しかったので、今度は、自転車を借りて島の周囲とか浜の星の砂を見に行きたいと思います。
街並みも、癒されます。

I think the admission fee is cheap, including everything. The sightseeing spots are great! The guide was also good! It's just a shame about the weather.

入館料金も含まれての料金、安いと思います。
見学の場所も良い！ガイドさんも良い！
ただ、天気だけが残念でした(⁠个⁠_⁠个⁠)

I really liked that we could visit various spots in just one day! I think it was a great deal that the bus fare, aquarium admission ticket, Pineapple Park entrance fee, Manzamo entrance ticket, and souvenir coupons were all included for 7,000 yen. It was a lot of fun!!

However, there were some issues with the bus guide's equipment, as the audio would cut out at times. It was a bit inconvenient when they were announcing the meeting times and important information about using the bus. If the cost includes the bus guide, I think they should ensure the equipment is charged and well-maintained.

1日で色んなスポットを回れる点が非常に良かった！バスの運行費、水族館入館券、パイナップルパーク入園料、万座毛入場券、お土産のクーポンが7000円に含まれているのが本当にお得だったと思う。非常に楽しかった！！

ただバスガイド用の機器が不調で音声が途切れるところがあった。案内はともかく集合時間やバス利用の際の注意事項をアナウンスしている時もあったので少し不便だった。バスガイド代が費用に含まれているのなら充電と整備は行なっておくべきだと思う。

My first trip to Okinawa started at the Churaumi Aquarium, and each time I went further south. Last time, I visited around Shuri Castle, and this time I traveled even further south. The sightseeing bus had a set schedule that included both places I was interested in and those I wasn't. This time, I went to Okinawa World, which I found uninteresting, so I asked to add the Ryukyu Glass Village at the last minute. Surprisingly, it turned out to be really enjoyable. I think being able to have such experiences is one of the great advantages of hiring a private taxi.

最初の沖縄には美ら海水族館から始まり、くるたびに南下、前回は首里城あたり、今回はさらに南下して南部旅行。観光バスは自分の関心あるとこも、興味ないところも決められた時間配分。今回は沖縄ワールド、自分には面白くなく、急きょ、琉球ガラス村を追加してもらった。しかもこれが予想外に良かった。こんな楽しみができるのも貸し切りタクシーの良さではないでしょうか。

The weather was nice, and I was able to enjoy the tour. At Cape Hedo, I could see all the way to Okierabu Island. I also got to see the Yanbaru Kuina taking a bath, and it was a very good day.

天気も良く、ツアーを楽しむことが出来ました。辺戸岬では沖伊良部島まで見ることが出来ました。ヤンバルクイナの水浴びも見られたし、とても良い1日でした。

In Okinawa, I was able to feel the charm of Ishigaki and the surrounding islands, and I was amazed by the power and strength of the water buffalo. I felt it was a tour I would like to experience again.

沖縄、石垣、離島の風情を感じることができ、水牛の迫力と力強さには驚きました。また、体験したいツアーだと感じました。

At first, we were given tickets and just moved in order, so it was very easy, straightforward, and we could enjoy the sightseeing smoothly without waiting.

In terms of content, we could see the mangroves well, crossed the sea on a water buffalo, and surprisingly, the food was delicious, which was great.

This time, we traveled with a group of tourists. They talked a lot, laughed loudly, and during the water buffalo ride, they played the sanshin and started singing. We had to wait because we couldn't gather at the meeting time, which delayed the arrival of other guests at their destination, Taketomi Island (although we didn't have that plan).

If we had been with people of the same age, we might have talked, but for us, it was a negative point.

I thought this plan was aimed at group tourism.

It's for those who don't want to move around much. We would have preferred to do the mangrove kayaking instead.

最初にチケットを渡され　順番に移動していくだけなのでとても簡単で、分かりやすく、待つこともなくスムーズに観光できました。
内容的にはマングローブもよく見えて、水牛で海を渡り、意外とご飯も美味しくて、良かったです。
今回私達は団体旅行客と一緒に回りました。とにかく　よくしゃべり、大声で笑う、水牛の時は三線を弾いてくれたのに、歌い出す。
集合時間に集合できず待たされる。その為他のお客さんの目的地　竹富島到着が遅れていた。（私達は行かないプランですが）
同じ年代の人達ならお話もしたかもしれませんが、私達にはマイナスポイントでした。

こちらのプランは団体向けの観光だと思いました。

あまり動きたくない人向けです。私達ならマングローブカヤックにすれば良かったです。

It was great to efficiently tour Ishigaki Island without renting a car, while also being able to sightsee and enjoy meals. The bus guide provided detailed information that helped me understand Ishigaki Island better, which I wouldn't have known on my own. Even in January, the blue sea and blue sky of Ishigaki Island were amazing.

レンタカーを借りずに石垣島を効率よく一周回れて、観光もできて、食事もできて良かったです
個人で回ってもわからないようなことをバスガイドさんが詳しく教えてくださるので石垣島の事がよくわかります
１月でも石垣島の青い海と青い空は最高でした

It was great to leisurely and efficiently visit the island's attractions with a charming guide who spoke with a smile. Not only did we see the tourist spots, but we also received explanations about various places on the island that we wouldn't have known about on our own, which felt like a great value.

For lunch, we enjoyed Ishizaka beef hamburgers and Miminga at a restaurant with a nice view, and everything was very delicious.

Lastly, we got to listen to some sanshin songs, which made for wonderful memories. I highly recommend it! ❣️

笑顔語り口魅力的なガイドさんとのんびり、しかも無駄なく効率的に島の名所を回れてとても良かったです。観光地だけでなく、自分達で回るのでは知り得ない島内の随所の説明もありお得感満載。
昼食は眺めのよい店で石坂牛ハンバーグ、ミミンガ等土地の食べ物網羅されとても美味しかったです。
最後に三線の唄も聞けとてもよい思い出となりました。オススメします❣️

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。
