All Reviews for 巴士之旅（バスツアー）

I was searching for a tour to the Churaumi Aquarium and found this one. We had 150 minutes at the aquarium, and since we opted for a light meal, we were able to enjoy it without rushing.

I thought the time allocation for the other stops was appropriate, but I felt that the 50 minutes at the American Village at the end was too short.

I participated on New Year's Day this year. Although the strong north wind made for unfortunate weather, I was able to visit all the places I wanted in just one day. I really enjoyed the mangroves of Iriomote Island, riding the water buffalo cart to and from Yubu Island, and searching for star sand on the streets and beaches of Taketomi Island. I think it would be quite difficult to visit all these places individually due to transportation issues in each area. It was also nice that lunch was included, making the trip much easier.

26年元日に参加しました。北風強く生憎のお天気でしたが、行きたかった場所に1日で回れました。西表島のマングローブ、由布島への行き帰りに乗る水牛車、竹富島の街並みや浜辺で星砂探しとても楽しかったです。個人で全て回るのは各地での交通などの問題もあり大変だと思います。お昼も付いていて楽に旅が出来ました。

We participated in our first family trip with our 2-year-old daughter! Despite the mishap of forgetting the reservation holder's iPhone at home, we were able to adapt and enjoy ourselves without any issues! The captain of the mangrove tour, along with the water buffalo Mirai-kun (who was with us both going and returning, haha), was very kind to our daughter, creating the best memories! I hope to revisit as a family in 5 or 10 years when our daughter is old enough to remember the experience!

2歳の娘と初めての家族旅行で参加しました！
予約した本人のiPhoneを自宅に忘れるハプニングもありながら、臨機応変に対応していただき無事に楽しむことができました！
マングローブの船長さんも、水牛のみらいくん(行きも帰りもみらいくんでした笑)とおじさんも、娘にとても親切にしてくださり最高の思い出になりました！
また5年後10年後、娘が記憶に残る年齢になった頃に家族で再訪したいなと思います！

It was a cloudy day with strong winds, which made it unsuitable for the glass-bottom boat, but the underwater environment was calm and filled with colorful fish. Especially, the captain found a turtle, and I was moved because it was my first time seeing a baby turtle. Thank you!

曇天で風が強く、グラスボートには向かない環境でしたが海中は穏やかで色鮮やかな魚がいました
特に船長さんが亀を見つけてくれ、子亀できしが初めて見たので感動しました
ありがとう

I was satisfied with the smooth flow of the trip from check-in to the end. At first, I honestly thought it was a bit expensive, but the cost performance wasn't bad. It was a shame that the weather wasn't great, so I want to try again with my family next time. Thank you very much.

　受付から最後までスムーズな流れで旅行できて満足です。最初ちょっと高いかなぁと正直思いましたがコスパは悪くなかったです。天気がイマイチだったのが残念だったので、今度家族とまたリベンジしたいです。ありがとうございました。

The guide's storytelling was wonderful! The water buffalo had names and were so cute. They are smart and hardworking, and I could feel the bond between the guide and the water buffalo.

The mangrove tour at Nakagawa was done by boat. The guide provided various explanations, and I felt the vitality of the mangroves. I learned that the dead trees sink underwater and never float back up. It was incredibly mystical! The tour guides were all knowledgeable and had emotions, which was lovely. I felt that the experience was very worthwhile for the price, and I'm glad I participated.

ガイドさんの口談が素敵でした！水牛に名前が付いていて可愛いです。賢くて働き者、ガイドさんと水牛の絆を感じました。
仲間川のマングローブツアー、船で周ります。ガイドさんに色んな説明をしていただき
マングローブの生命力を感じ枯れた木は水下に沈み二度と浮き上がらないそうです。
凄く神秘的で！ツアーのガイドさんは、誰も物知りで感情があり素敵です。料金からは凄くお得感があり参加して良かったです。

From the morning gathering to the evening dispersal, the guidance was clear, and the ferry ride was enjoyable. The mangrove tour lasted a full hour, and the explanations made it fun. Since it was quite windy, wearing a hooded jacket might be a good idea. The water buffalo cart ride was a unique experience, and I appreciated hearing about the characteristics of the water buffalo. During the bus ride, the driver shared stories like a guide, which was entertaining and brought laughter and applause.

We had lunch on Yubu Island, where the local flavor was present. Although there weren't many dishes, the buffet style left us feeling full. The cute canned brown sugar caramel we bought as souvenirs was delicious. After exploring, we headed to Taketomi Island. There are rental bicycles available, but if there are many tour guests, you might not be able to use them. Since there is plenty of time for exploration, those who are unsure about walking should prepare by doing some walking beforehand. The beautiful beach, nature, and traditional houses allowed us to relax and enjoy a fulfilling day.

早朝集合から夕方解散まで
案内もわかりやすくフェリー移動
マングローブ遊覧じっくり1時間案内説明で楽しめました　風が強かったのでフード付きの服がいいかも　水牛車も貴重な体験で水牛の特徴などお話し聞けて良かったです　バス移動では運転手さんがガイド並みにお話しされ　それが面白くて笑いと拍手が起きます
由布島でランチ　地域色あり品数は多くはありませんがバイキング形式で満腹になりました　お土産で可愛い缶入りの黒糖キャラメルが美味しかったです　散策後　竹富島へ　レンタサイクルありますがツアー客が多いと利用できないかも　散策する時間が多いので歩きに不安な人はウォーキングして準備しといた方がいいです　綺麗なビーチと自然と家並みでのんびりゆったりとした気持ちになり充実した1日を過ごせました

I was able to efficiently visit three islands, each with its own unique charm. The transportation was smooth, and the guide's stories were interesting and enjoyable. The Okinawan cuisine for lunch was even more delicious than I had imagined. Overall, it was a fulfilling experience that made me think about which island I would like to visit again next!

3つの島を効率良く巡りながら、それぞれに違う魅力を味わえました。移動はスムーズで、案内の方のお話も興味深く楽しく、沖縄料理の昼食も想像以上においしかったです。全体を楽しんだ上で次はどの島にもう一度来ようかなと思える、充実した内容でした！

I was able to visit Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi all at once! Yufu is a very small island, and there wasn't much to do, so I spent my time collecting seashells! The rental bicycles in Taketomi were in such bad shape that my rear end hurt and I was surprised they were on the verge of a flat tire, but now it's a funny story!

西表、由布、竹富といっきにまわれました！
由布はとても小さい島で、することがなかったので、貝がらひろいしてました！
竹富のレンタル自転車がボロボロすぎて、おしりも痛くてパンク寸前でびっくりしましたが、いまでは良い笑い話です

I participated with my younger sister. The content was very good, but the weather was unfortunate, so I give it four stars. I had heard that the weather in January can be bad, so I wasn't too disappointed when it rained, but I think the beaches of Taketomi Island would have been even more wonderful if the weather had been nice. Still, the mangrove tour had a cover on the boat, so we were able to enjoy the sightseeing without getting too wet.

We were able to ride the water buffalo cart twice, and it was fun to cheer on the water buffalo pulling the cart while listening to the sanshin and songs. During the island tour, I noticed that many young people, both locals and non-locals, were working, and it was clear that everyone loves this environment, which made me feel warm inside.

妹と参加しました。内容はとても良かったのですが、お天気が残念だったので星4つです。
1月は天気が悪いと聞いていましたので、雨が降ってもそれほどがっかりしませんでしたが、竹富島のビーチはお天気が良ければもっと素晴らしかったと思います。それでもマングローブ遊覧は船にカバーがかかっていて、ほとんど濡れずに観光できました。
水牛車には2回乗ることができましたが、車を引いてくれる水牛さんを応援し、三線と歌を聴かせていただき楽しかったです。島の観光では地元出身もそうでない方も若者が沢山働いていて、皆この環境が大好きなんだなと伝わってきてこちらも暖かい気持ちになりました。

I was able to efficiently visit Iriomote Island, Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island in one day, and I was very satisfied. The bus driver guide on Iriomote Island was very entertaining. I highly recommend it.

一日で西表島・由布島・竹富島に効率よくまわることができて、大満足でした。西表島のバスの運転手さんのガイドがとても面白かったです。おすすめです。

Since the mangroves follow the same route for both the outbound and return trips, I was able to see both sides. It was fun listening to the explanations too! You can buy souvenirs on Yufu Island!

マングローブは行きと帰り同じところを通るため両側見ることが出来た。解説も聞いていて楽しかった！お土産は由布島で買えるよ！

Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, but I was comforted by the guide's humorous storytelling and the water buffalo (Apar-kun). It was so relaxing!

あいにく、天候は曇りでしたが、ガイドのユーモアたっぷりの語りと水牛(アーパー君)に癒されました。まったり！

A luxurious trip visiting three islands in one day. It was a solo journey, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The driver on Iriomote Island was the best! The guiding while driving was absolutely wonderful! I was also able to rent a bicycle on Taketomi Island that day, so I spent my time efficiently. The lunch that included a meal was delicious as well.

1日で3島巡り。贅沢な旅でした。ひとり旅でしたが、大変満喫できました。
西表島のパスドライバーさん、最高！運転しながらのガイドが素晴らしすぎた！
竹富島でも当日自転車が借りられたので、時間を無駄なく過ごせました。
お昼つきのランチも美味しかったです。

In some places, the parking lot is far away, and we can't be late for the meeting time, so the time written is even shorter. However, since we couldn't drive around ourselves, it was a very helpful tour.

場所によっては駐車場が遠く、集合時間に遅れてもいけないしで、書いてある時間より更に短くなります。ただ自分達では運転してまわれなかったので、ありがたいツアーでした。

It was a place I wanted to visit in the northern part of Okinawa Island, which is not often included in tours. The day was fulfilling with sightseeing, following the schedule without any troubles. The tour guide's explanations were accurate and easy to understand, which made me feel at ease.

The sashimi lunch at Kunigami Port Shokudo was very delicious. Since it’s a popular restaurant, there were many customers waiting for it to open, but I was able to eat as soon as it opened.

I wished I had a little more time at Asumui, but it couldn't be helped due to the schedule. It’s quite far to go individually, so this day trip tour was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend it.

ツアーでは行くことの少ない沖縄島北部、行ってみたかった場所でした。
予定通りの時程で、トラブルもなく充実した観光の一日でした。添乗員さんの説明も的確でわかりやすく、安心できるものでした。
国頭港食堂のお刺身ランチはとてもおいしかったです。人気の店だけに開店待ちのお客さんの多い中、開店と同時に食事ができました。
アスムイではもう少し時間が欲しかったですが、日程上仕方ないですね。
個人で行くには遠いので、日帰りのこのツアーはありがたかったです。お勧めです。

You can efficiently visit places like Yufuin Island, which are difficult to access on your own, without wasting time. I did a preliminary visit on this tour and then spent a relaxing day on Taketomi Island the next day.

自力では行きにくい由布島なども無駄なく非常に効率よく廻れます。このツアーで下見をして、翌日竹富島でゆっくり一日過ごしました。

I was able to experience the extraordinary by riding a water buffalo cart and seeing the mangroves that can only be found on Iriomote Island. I had a relaxing and enjoyable time.

水牛車に乗ったり、西表島でしか見られないマングローブを見たり、非日常が体験出来ました。
ゆっくりのんびり、楽しくすごせました。

A one-year-old calf was happily playing with the water buffalo. A young elementary school boy got stuck in the mangroves. The lunch buffet was enjoyed by the older kids, but it might be a good idea to bring something for the little ones aged 0-3.

水牛に一才の末の子が喜んでいました。
小学生の男の子にマングローブ刺さります。
お昼ご飯のバイキングは上の子たちは食べでしたが、小さい0-3歳くらいの子は何か持参した方がいいかもです。

My first trip to Ishigaki Island, and I arrived at the airport just before noon. Since hotel check-in is at 3 PM, I wondered what I should do after arriving. While casually searching on VELTRA, I found this tour.

The meeting time was at 2:30 PM. It included a shuttle service, a ride on a water buffalo cart, and free time for exploration. The return ferry from Taketomi Island was at 5 PM. When you think of Ishigaki Island, you think of water buffalo carts. The timing was just right, so I made a reservation four days before departure.

From the airport, I took a leisurely bus to the meeting point at the ferry terminal. At the tour desk, I showed my voucher and received my boarding ticket, and they provided detailed guidance on the meeting place, a photo of the boat I would be taking, and how to return.

Before the departure time of the ferry, I was able to have lunch and browse for souvenirs. The shuttle service from Taketomi Island was smooth, and I quickly boarded the water buffalo cart.

The ride on the water buffalo cart was incredibly relaxing. The blue sky, red flowers, white sand, and the gentle eyes of the water buffalo all brought me peace. I'm really glad I went.

初めての石垣島旅行、空港到着はお昼前。ホテルチェックインは15時だし、着いたら何しようかな?と何気なくVELTRAで検索したところ、今回のツアーを見つけました。
集合は14時半。送迎付きで水牛車に乗って、自由散策。竹富島からの帰りの船は17時。
石垣島といえば水牛車。時間もちょうどいい感じ。出発の4日前に予約しました。
空港からはのんびり路線バスで集合場所のフェリーターミナルへ。ツアーデスクでバウチャーを見せて乗船券を受け取ると、集合場所、乗る船の写真、帰る方法など、丁寧に案内がありました。
行きの船の出発時間まで、ランチを食べたり、お土産を見たりできました。
竹富島到着からの送迎もスムーズで、早速水牛車に乗り込みます。
水牛車はとってものんびり。青い空、赤い花、白い砂、水牛のつぶらな瞳、全てに癒されました。本当に行って良かったです。

Everything is arranged for you, so it's easy. It's a great tour for first-timers. The premium seats on the boat are an additional 500 yen, but since the seats are completely different, it would be fine to use them if the regular seats are crowded.

すべて段取りしていただけるので楽です。初めての方には良いツアーです。
船のプレミアムシートは＋500円ですが、シートがぜんぜん違うので普通席が混みあっている場合は利用しても良いでしょう。

Although the weather was a bit uncertain at the end of the year, it became my best memory! While gently swaying with the cows, I truly felt that I had arrived in Ishigaki, accompanied by the sounds of the sanshin.

年末のお天気微妙ななかの参加でしたが、一番良い思い出になりました!ゆっくりと牛さんに揺られながら三線の音色とであー石垣に来たなと実感

I had a really great time. There were so many places I wanted to see, and I felt like there wasn't enough time, so I would love to join this tour again. It was packed with highlights. Riding the water buffalo three times was truly wonderful. I'm glad I chose this tour.

本当に楽しかった。時間が足りなくてみたい所あったので、またこのツアーに参加したいと思うほど盛りだくさんでカナリ見所全て詰まっていた。水牛に3回乗れたのは本当に良かった。このツアーを選んで良かった

Iriomote Island's mangroves were amazing. I was also able to visit Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island was comfortable for sightseeing with moderate temperatures, unlike in summer.

西表島マングローブ最高でした。
由布島にも行けて
竹富島も夏とは違い気温も適度で観光しやすかったです。

Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi had a warm climate and wonderful weather, making it a fantastic island-hopping experience. It was a great experience to leisurely explore the islands by water buffalo cart, which I had longed to do. I learned from the guide that water buffalo are gentle animals with intelligent personalities. I definitely want to travel to the Okinawan islands again.

西表　由布　竹富　気候は暖かくお天気も良くて素晴らしい三島巡りでした。
念願だった水牛車でゆったりと島巡りをしたのはとても良い経験になりました。
水牛が穏やかな性格で頭が良い動物だとガイドの方に教えて頂きました。
また　沖縄の島へ旅行したいと思いました。

I was picked up at the hotel.
We were able to board the ferry without much waiting after arriving at the terminal.
Once we arrived at Iriomote Island, we could immediately take a boat to the mangrove forest, and when we finished, a bus was waiting to take us to the next destination...
Everything went smoothly without any unnecessary waiting time, which I thought was great.
Although the weather wasn't very good, I had a lot of fun.

ホテルまでお迎えに来てもらいました
フェリーターミナル到着から乗船までさほど待つことなく乗船できました。
西表島に着いたらすぐ船でマングローブ林にいくことができ、終わったらバスが待っていて次のところに。。。
というふうに滞ることなく、無駄な待ち時間がなく過ごすことができたのでよかったと思います
天気があまりよくなかったのですがとても楽しめました

I enjoyed an island-hopping tour from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote, Yubu, and Taketomi Island. We explored the mangroves by boat, rode water buffalo, and were soothed by the sounds of the island's shamisen against the beautiful sea. We had a lunch buffet, and on Taketomi Island, we rented electric bicycles (which I really got into). I was worried about being able to ride them since I'm in my mid-50s and there are many hills, but it was so much fun to ride with the wind. I zipped around the island with my daughter, who is in her 20s.

体験ツアーで、石垣島→西表→湯布→竹富島と島めぐりを楽しめました。マングローブを遊船して、水牛に乗り島三味線の音が響き美しい海に癒されました。ランチヴィッフェを食べ、竹富島では電動自転車をお借りました（これがハマりました）50代半ばで坂道が多いので乗れるか心配だったのですが、風をきって走る楽しさ。20代の娘と一緒にスーイスーイと島をぐるっと周りました。

I joined a tour for my friend who was visiting Okinawa for the first time. We were able to visit all the places we wanted in the northern part, and I was very satisfied! I definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting Okinawa for the first time. However, while the guide was great, the driver had a very unpleasant attitude and responded coldly to the guide, which made me feel sorry for them. It's a shame because the tour was enjoyable. I didn't think the driver was professional.

初めて沖縄に行く友人のために
ツアーに参加しました。
北部で行きたい所は全部行けて
とても大満足でした！
初めて沖縄に行く人には絶対に
おすすめなツアーです。
しかしガイドさんは良かったのですが
運転手さんがとても感じが悪く
ガイドさんに対する受け答えが冷たくて
ガイドさんがとても気の毒でした。
ツアーは楽しかっただけにとても残念です。
プロじゃないと思いました。

There is plenty of free time. I think it's a good opportunity since you might not have many chances to experience water buffalo. For those who have been to Amami, the mangroves might feel a bit lacking.

自由時間多めです。
水牛はあまり体験できないと思いますので、良い機会だと思います。
マングローブは奄美行ったことあるかたは物足りないかもしれません。

The lunch was delicious. However, it was disappointing since it wasn't tasty, and I would like to see some other measures taken. It was a shame to go there for nothing.

昼食が、美味しくかなったです。
せっかくの昼食でしたが、美味しくなく何か別の対策をほどこしてもらいたい。
せっかく行って残念でした。
