All Reviews for 巴士之旅（バスツアー）

The round-trip ferry from Ishigaki Island to Taketomi Island, along with the water buffalo cart and the island sightseeing bus, allowed us to get off at Kaiji Beach, making our time very worthwhile.

石垣島から竹富島までの往復船と竹富島での水牛車、島内観光バスでは、カイジ浜での下車もでき、時間を有意義に使えました。

I was looking forward to Pineapple Park just as much as Churaumi Aquarium, but it turned out to be just a stop for shopping. I was disappointed because I thought there would be more to see and do.

美ら海水族館と同じ位に楽しみにしていたパイナップルパークがただのお買物のみの立ち寄りでした。
もっと色々見て回れるのだと思っていたため残念です。

I participated in the tour because driving to the northern part on my own seemed challenging, but the time spent at each sightseeing spot was just right for me, allowing for a leisurely exploration.

Cape Hedo was breathtaking. At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, I was a bit disappointed to have arrived late and only saw the dolphin show from outside the venue, but everything else was satisfying. In the end, I enjoyed the sunset from the car window.

I prefer a tour like this, which focuses on specific destinations, rather than moving between many sightseeing spots in a short amount of time.

自力で北部まで運転して行くのは大変そうだったので参加しましたが、各観光場所での滞在時間が私にはちょうどよく、ゆっくり観光することができて良かったです。
辺戸岬は絶景の一言。大石林山は一番長いコースをじっくり見て回ることができ、美ら海水族館は、到着が送れてイルカショーの会場の外から見たのがちょっと残念でしたが、それ以外は満足でした。最後は車窓から見る日没まで楽しみました。
短い滞在時間でたくさんの観光場所を移動するより、こういう行き先を絞った余裕のあるツアーがいいです。

The mangroves on Iriomote Island are quite rare, so I recommend visiting. To get to Yubu Island, you travel back and forth on a water buffalo cart, and they enhance the experience with stories and performances on the sanshin. After having lunch and seeing the butterfly garden and Manta Beach, we ran out of time. On Taketomi Island, we did some sightseeing with a glass-bottom boat and a water buffalo cart, but we couldn't visit places like Hoshi no Suna Beach, which disappointed the kids. I wish we had more free time on Taketomi Island. Although we had various experiences arranged for us, the schedule was quite packed, so I think it's good to carefully consider which tour to choose.

Lastly, regarding lunch, the children's meal was supposed to be chosen on-site, but we were guided to a prepared table, and in the end, the child could hardly eat anything, and we ended up just paying for it. I did check with the staff, but they seemed busy, so I think it was a mistake.

西表島のマングローブは中々見られないのでお勧めです。由布島へは水牛車に引かれて往復しますが、お話や三線の演奏があったりと気分を盛り上げてくださいます。お昼を食べて蝶々園とマンタの浜を見たら時間切れでした。竹富島ではグラスボードと水牛車での島内観光でしたが、星の砂の浜等には行かれず、子供が残念がっていました。せめて竹富島は自由時間が欲しかったかなー。おまかせで色々な体験ができましたが、かなり詰め込んだ日程ですので、どのツアーにするのか吟味するのが良いと思います。

最後に昼食ですが、子供の食事は１人分現地で選ぶ事になっていましたが、用意された席へ案内され、結局子供はほとんど食べられず、料金だけ支払うことになりました。係りの方には確認をしたのですが、忙しそうでしたので間違えたのだと思います。

It was my first time on an Okinawa tour, and I had a fulfilling time from morning until evening! Thank you very much.

When I go to Okinawa again, I will participate in a different tour.

沖縄ツアー初めてでしたが
朝から夕方まで満喫充実した時間を過ごせました!!ありがとうございました

また沖縄に言った際は違うツアーに参加しますね

The tour around Taketomi Island and the water buffalo experience was enjoyable. I think it's great that you can choose the time. The slow pace was very pleasant.

竹富島を回るツアーと水牛の旅楽しかったです。
時間も選べれるのは良いと思います。
ゆっくりとしたペースが心地良かったです。

I was surprised by the size of the whale shark and also by how it eats. It became a fun memory. Three hours felt too short.

じんべいサメの大きさにビックリ、エサの食べ方もビックリでした。楽しい思い出になりました。　3時間では短く感じました。

Although the weather was unfortunately bad on the day I participated, I was able to spend a very fulfilling day as the title suggests. I was able to see beautiful rainbows multiple times on the mangrove river, and the guide's explanations were thorough, allowing me to appreciate the mangroves better! When we crossed to the island on the cattle, the local guide provided detailed explanations and even sang with a shamisen, making for a wonderful experience. My favorite part was Taketomi Island! The scenery was just as I had seen in guidebooks, and it was lovely! Riding around on a bicycle allowed me to feel the pleasant breeze, creating the best memories! Next time, I want to try again on a day with good weather!

参加した日はあいにくの天気でしたがタイトル通りとっても濃い1日を過ごすことができました。マングローブの川ではきれいな虹を何度も見ることができ、ガイドの方の説明も丁寧で理解しながらマングローブを見ることができました！また牛さんで島渡りをした際も現地のガイドさんが細かい説明や三味線で歌を歌ってくださり、素敵な体験をすることができました。私が一番気に入ったのは竹富島でした！ガイドブックで見たような景色が広がり、素敵でした！自転車で巡った地ため、心地よい風を感じることができ、最高の思い出になりました！今度は天気が良い日に再チャレンジしてみたいと思います！

I was torn between visiting three or four islands, but reducing it to three turned out to be the right choice as it gave us a bit more time. The system of having staff at each destination detach the vouchers was easy to understand, and it felt less restrictive compared to tours that require constant group participation. The lunch was surprisingly delicious, and we were blessed with good weather, making for a fun day. I think it would be quite difficult to manage such an efficient itinerary on my own, so I'm glad I participated.

3島か4島かで迷いましたが、1つ減らした事で時間にややゆとりが生まれ正解でした。行く先々で待つスタッフにバウチャーを切り離して貰うシステムは分かり易く、常にグループ行動を求められるツアーとは違うので拘束感が薄かったのも良かったです。昼食も予想以上に美味しく、天気にも恵まれて楽しい日になりました。個人手配では中々ここまで効率良く周るのは難しいと思われ、参加して良かったです。

On a clear day, the boat to Taketomi Island was smooth, and we arrived in no time. The building near the ferry terminal had restrooms and a shop, so we waited for our glass-bottom boat while browsing for souvenirs.

Boats were continuously arriving, and after waiting for two, the glass-bottom boat departed. We were able to see many fish as we visited several feeding spots. Next was the bus. Since it was a shared ride, we waited at the ferry terminal for another boat to arrive before departing. We strolled along the beach where we could find star sand and headed to the water buffalo cart station located in the center of the village.

At the reception counter of the building, we received instructions on which water buffalo cart to board. We were leisurely pulled through the town, while the person holding the buffalo's reins sang with a sanshin and guided us. After returning to the water buffalo station, we took group photos, individual photos, and received our boarding certificate photo.

I had made a reservation for the boat back to Ishigaki Island when we arrived at Taketomi Island, so I hurried to catch that bus. I regretted not having more free time to explore the laid-back town. It was a bit of a hectic tour, but it became a wonderful memory. (Departure at 1 PM, return at 4 PM)

快晴の中、竹富島までの船は揺れず、あっという間に到着。船乗り場そばの建物内にはトイレと売店等があり、ガラスボートの時間までお土産を見ながら待ってました。
ひっきりなしに船がはいってくるので、2隻待ってからグラスポートは出発。餌付けされている場所を何か所か周り沢山の魚を見ることが出来ました。次はバス。こちらも混乗なので、別の船到着を船乗り場で待ってからの出発。星の砂が見つかる砂浜を散策し、集落の真ん中にある水牛車乗り場へ。建物の受付カウンターへ行き、どの水牛車に乗るかの指示を受けて乗りました。
のんびりと街中を引いてもらい、また水牛の手綱を持つ方が蛇三線で歌を歌って、案内をしてくれました。水牛乗り場へ戻って集合写真、個別写真を撮り、乗車証明写真をもらいました。
石垣島へ戻る船の予約は竹富島に着いた時に指定していたので、そのバスに乗れる様に急いで行動。
のんびりした街中、自由散策時間があれば良かったと反省。ちょっと慌ただしい観光でしたが、とても良い想い出になりました。
(13時発16時戻り)

I participated with two friends.
The meeting place was close to our accommodation, and the bus was easy to find. There were more foreign participants than Japanese, making it a multicultural bus.
The guide's stories were interesting, and they were kind and attentive, so I really enjoyed it!
The time spent at each location was short, but we disembarked at American Village along the way, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset.
Given the level of satisfaction for this price, it was a great deal! I'm very satisfied.

友人2人と参加しました。
集合場所も宿から近くバスも分かりやすかったです。参加者は日本人より外国の方のほうが多く、多国籍なバスでした。
ガイドさんのお話は面白く、優しく丁寧だったのでとっても楽しめました！
ひとつひとつの場所での時間は短かかったですが、途中のアメリカンビレッジで離団したため、綺麗な夕陽をみれました。
この充実度でこのお値段は安い！とっても満足です。

I decided to join this tour because they provide direct transportation to the hotel where I was staying in Naha City.

The schedule for the Churaumi Aquarium was 150 minutes, which included seeing the giant whale shark in the massive tank, browsing for souvenirs, and watching the dolphin show at the Okichan Theater starting at 3 PM. Although the timing felt a bit rushed, it was just right.

Personally, I wasn't very aware of the scenic spots like the Warumi Bridge and Kouri Island when I signed up, but they were beautiful, and I enjoyed the souvenir shops as well. Taking photos at the beach, having a restroom break, and shopping for souvenirs felt a bit short at 20 minutes. I wished we had another 10 minutes. It was a whirlwind just looking at Blue Seal ice cream, tankan, papaya, and pure brown sugar. I returned to the bus with a heavy heart.

At Nago Pineapple Park, I thought 20 minutes was sufficient for souvenir shopping and restroom breaks. However, it would have been better if the restrooms were a bit cleaner.

I would like to thank the guide who contacted the restaurant and subsequent facilities regarding my allergy concerns, as well as the staff at the restaurant and shops for their assistance. Thank you for your kindness.

I believe the price, which includes transportation costs, aquarium admission fees, and guide fees, is very reasonable. Overall, it was a tour that allowed us to spend a comfortable and efficient day.

那覇市内の宿泊するホテルに直接送迎してくれることが決め手となり、こちらのツアーに参加しました。

美ら海水族館は150分で、巨大水槽のジンベイザメを見て、お土産を見て、さらに15時からのオキちゃん劇場のイルカショーを見て、バスの駐車場に15:45までに戻ってくるという時間配分は、少し急ぎ足ですがちょうど良かったです。

個人的には、申込時にあまり意識的していなかったワルミ大橋、古宇利島観光がとてもキレイで、またお土産物屋さんも楽しかったです。ビーチで写真を撮り、トイレ休憩し、お土産を買うのに20分では短く感じました。もう10分あればなあと思いました。ブルーシールアイス、たんかん、パパイヤ、純黒糖など、いろいろ見るだけであっという間でした。後ろ髪を引かれながらバスに戻りました。

ナゴパイナップルパークではお土産とトイレ休憩なので、20分でも良いと思いました。ただ、トイレがもう少しきれいだと良いのですが…。

昼食のアレルギーの件で相談した際に、レストランや後続の施設に連絡を取ってくださり、対応してくださったガイドさん、レストランやお店の方々に感謝いたします。ご親切にありがとうございました。

交通費と、水族館の入館料、ガイド代を含めてのこの値段は非常にリーズナブルだと思います。全体的に、効率的良く、快適に1日を過ごすことができるツアーでした。

We gathered at the prefectural office square in the morning and set off right away, stopping by several hotels to pick up participants before heading to Manzamo, which is often featured on postcards. It was under construction, so we couldn't take our time to enjoy it, but the Elephant Nose and the Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks) are famous there. I was glad we could spend plenty of time at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, which my child had been looking forward to. It was nice to see my child enjoying their first experience in a pineapple field at Pineapple Park.

We had fresh purple sweet potato tart at the Okashi Goten, and it was delicious. There's nothing like it fresh out of the oven. We were also able to buy a lot of souvenirs. I was exhausted from sleeping soundly on the bus ride back, but if you want to efficiently visit tourist spots, I recommend this course.

朝県庁前広場に集合してすぐ出発しましたが、数カ所のホテルに回り参加者を拾って、葉書によく出る万座毛に行きました。工事中だったので、ゆっくり見れなかったが、象の鼻と夫婦岩が有名です。子供が憧れていた美ら海水族館にたっぷり滞在できて良かったです。パイナップルパークで子供が初めてパイナップル畑を見て楽しそうだったので良かったです。
お菓子御殿で生の紅芋タルトを食べて美味しかったです。やっぱりできたてがうまいんです。またお土産もいっぱい買えました。帰るバスの中で爆睡して疲れましたけど、効率よく観光名所を回りたいならこのコースがおすすめです。

The plan included a bus tour and a water buffalo cart. I used this service five years ago, and at that time, the tour explanations were thorough and good, so I decided to use it again this time. However, the water buffalo this time was an old one that would stop to urinate and defecate after walking a short distance. During a time-limited tour, we stopped more than ten times, which significantly reduced our free time. Because it was urinating so often, there was little sightseeing commentary, and on top of that, we were subjected to a tone-deaf song that made it hard to tell whose song it was (it should have been a song by Rimi Natsukawa...). I hope they can improve this with a sense of professionalism, as they are providing a service for which they receive payment from customers.

　バス観光と水牛車のプランであった。5年前にも利用し，そのときは観光の説明もしっかりしてくれていてよかったので今回も利用した。しかし，今回の水牛は老牛で少し歩くと立ち止まりおしっこ，うんこをする。時間に制限ある観光をしているところで，一周する途中十回以上立ち止まり自由時間がかなり削られた。おしっこばかりしているため，観光案内は少なく，さらに，誰の歌であったか分からなくなるような調子の外れた歌を聞かせられるというおまけも付いていた。（夏川りみさんの歌であったはずだが・・・）。お客さんからお金をいただいて行っている仕事であるというプロ意識をもって改善してほしい。

I apologize for the inconvenience and disturbance caused as I was with children. We had a great time together. Since we had many places to visit, I had to accompany the kids to the restroom and walk at their pace, which left us with little time to shop at the souvenir stores, and I felt a bit sorry for just borrowing the restroom. However, we were able to hit all the key sightseeing points, and I think this price is very reasonable!

子連れでしたので、大変ご迷惑、お騒がせして申し訳ありませんでした。
子供と一緒にとても楽しませていただきました。
立ち寄る場所が多いため、随所で子供のトイレに付き合ったり歩幅を合わせて歩くとお土産屋さんで購入する時間がなく、お手洗いだけ借りるような形になってしまい、ちょっと申し訳なくおもいました。
しかし観光ポイントはしっかりと押さえており、この価格はとてもお得だと思います！

The bus tour was a very good way to go around Okinawa if you don't have a car. They picked us up at a convenient place and took us to the aquarium and other scenic locations around the island. The staff was helpful and friendly.

I had many places I wanted to visit in Okinawa for the first time, and I was very happy to be on a tour that covered them all! Each sightseeing spot had ample time, and I was satisfied (^ ^). About 80% of the participants were foreigners, and the guide explained in both Japanese and English, also letting us listen to traditional Okinawan music (^ - ^)! I definitely recommend joining this tour!

はじめての沖縄で行きたい所が多数あったのですが全て行けるツアーでとても嬉しかったです！
それぞれの観光時間もしっかりあって満足でした(^ ^)
参加されてる方は8割外国の方でガイドさんが日本語と英語で説明してくださって沖縄伝統の音楽も聴かせてくれました(^-^)！
是非参加してみてください！

I participated with four friends and their daughters.

I was a bit anxious about bringing my 4-year-old and 1-year-old, but I appreciated the guidance on when to use the restroom, especially since the next sightseeing spot had restrooms under construction. They also provided advice on whether the sightseeing locations were stroller-friendly, which showed their thoughtfulness.

The tour was well-balanced, not overly packed, yet allowed us to fully enjoy Okinawa! I’m sure we wouldn’t have been able to visit so many attractions on our own.

Among the highlights, we particularly enjoyed Kouri Island and the Churaumi Aquarium as a family.

友達母娘4人で参加しました。

4歳と1歳の子連れでの参加で不安もありましたが、次の観光場所はトイレが工事中なので今行っておいた方がいいですよ！と、トイレのタイミングを教えてくださったり、観光先がベビーカー仕様になっているかなどアドバイスくださり、心遣いを感じました。

ツアー内容も詰め込みすぎず、でも充分に沖縄を満喫できる内容でした！
きっと自分たちだけでは、こんなに観光地を回ることは出来なかったと思います。

中でも古宇利島と美ら海水族館は親子で楽しめました。

I participated in the water buffalo cart course. I was very healed by the relaxed and calm time. It's a set that includes a water buffalo cart pulled by Ryuu-kun and a round-trip boat ticket, and it's a great value. I think anyone going to Taketomi Island should definitely purchase it!

水牛車コースに参加しました。
ゆったりとした穏やかな時間にとても心癒されました。
水牛の琉くんの引いてくれる水牛車と往復船のチケットのセットですが、コスパ最高です。
竹富島に行かれる方は是非購入すべきだと思いますよぉ〜♪

The weather was unfortunate, but I was glad to be able to relax. Next, I want to join a snorkeling tour.

あいにくの天気でしたが、のんびり出来てよかったです
次は、シュノーケリングツアーに参加したいです。

I chose the option that included a water buffalo cart tour. However, the route for the water buffalo cart was not great. It didn't pass by the birthplace of Anriya Kumaya and just went through the village. While there are wonderful beaches on the island, during the 3-hour stay, we wasted 30 minutes on the water buffalo cart tour and spent unnecessary time on taking commemorative photos and buying pictures. It would have been enough just to take the round trip boat to Taketomi.

オプションで水牛車観光付きを選びました。
この水牛車のルートが今一つでした。
安里屋クマヤの生家を通らず、集落の中を進むだけでした。
島内には素晴らしいビーチがあるものの、滞在時間3時間のうち水牛車観光に30分、記念撮影やら写真を買えやらで無駄な時間を過ごしてしまいました。
竹富に渡る往復の船だけで良かった。

I participated with two friends in the mangrove cruise in Iriomote, a round trip on a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, and sightseeing by water buffalo cart and bus on Taketomi Island. We were able to efficiently explore the islands. It can be quite challenging to arrange each ticket individually, so I recommend these package tours.

友人と３名で参加、西表のマングローブクルーズ、
由布島への水牛車往復、竹富島での水牛車とバス観光と
離島を効率よく回ることができました。
個人で各チケットを手配するのは大変なので、
こうしたパッケージツアーがお勧めです。

We departed at just the right time after breakfast. The itinerary included the stunning sea at Manza Beach, then crossing the bridge to Kouri Island (the sandy beach is beautiful!), followed by lunch at the Okashi Goten (I recommend ordering Okinawa soba since it gets crowded), enjoying the feeding of the graceful whale sharks at the Churaumi Aquarium, and finally wrapping up with tastings of wine, juice, and cake at the pineapple garden to choose souvenirs. You couldn't cover this much with a rental car, but it was a fulfilling day packed with sightseeing! Both the driver and the guide were kind and attentive; I'm really glad I participated!

朝食の後のちょうどいい時間に出発でした。行程は、万座毛で最高の海、次に橋で渡った古宇利島（砂浜綺麗！）、そして、お菓子御殿で昼食（沖縄そばを注文しておくことオススメ！混んでいるので）、美ら海水族館で優雅に泳ぐジンベエザメの餌付け鑑賞、最後はパイナップル園でワインやジュース、ケーキの試食でお土産選びの仕上げでした。レンタカーならこんなにまわることできないけど、盛りだくさんの観光で充実！運転手さんもガイドさんも親切で丁寧、参加して良かったでーす！

I was able to visit the northernmost cape of Okinawa Main Island, and I spent an hour exploring the Okinawa World, and on top of that, I could stay at the aquarium for three hours, which was really great. Overall, I was able to enjoy everything without feeling rushed. It was also nice that the bus guide was very reliable.

沖縄本島の最北端の岬に行けてさらに大石林山を一時間かけて回れて、その上水族館も３時間滞在できとてもよかったです。全体的に駆け足になることもなく十分堪能できました。バスガイドさんがしっかりとした方であった点もよかったです。

I had a very good experience.
It is also an issue on the participants' side, but I was concerned that the participation of elderly individuals was challenging and affected the overall activities.

非常に良い体験をさせていただきました。
参加者側の問題でもありますが、高齢者の参加には無理があり全体行動に影響が出ているのが、気になりました。

It was unfortunately rainy, but the boat didn't sway as much as I expected. I don't think I could have navigated this efficiently on my own, so I'm glad I participated in the tour! The water buffalo cart was especially great!

あいにくの雨でしたが、船は思ったより揺れませんでした。個人ではこんなにうまく効率よく廻れないと思うので、ツアーで参加者して良かったです！水牛車が特に良かったです！

I was torn between renting a car or taking a bus, but I chose the bus tour due to the cost and the convenience of not having to drive.

Since it was a tour, I was concerned about the time allocation at each location, but there was enough time to fully enjoy the sightseeing, and I was able to savor Okinawa.

I would like to use this service again.

レンタカーかバスかどちらか迷いましたが
金額と運転しなくても良いと言う便利さから
バスツアーを選択しました。

ツアーになるので、各所での時間配分が気になってましたが
観光を十分に楽しめる時間が確保されており
沖縄を堪能できました。

また使いたいと思います。

We participated as a family. We had so much fun that we didn't mind the rain at all. We want to join again next year.

親子で参加しました。雨でもまったく気にならないくらいに楽しめました。また来年も参加したいと思ってます。

I was keeping an eye on the weather forecast, and sure enough, it was pouring rain from the morning. The wind was strong too. I was worried about what would happen, but the large catamaran from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island was stable with little rocking. However, I got completely soaked while switching to the cruise ship. The unique roots of the mangroves were hard to see due to the high water levels, but thanks to that, we were able to dock at a pier where we could see the massive Sakishima suou tree, which is said to be 400 to 600 years old! The glass-bottom boat tour was canceled afterward, but instead, we had a tour of Taketomi Island by ox cart, which turned out to be quite nice. The weather improved a bit in the second half, and I was able to enjoy myself.

天気予報を気にしつつ当日に至ったが、やはり朝から大雨。風も強い。どうなるのか心配だったが石垣島から西表島までは大型の双胴船で揺れも少ない。ただその後、クルーズ船に乗り換える間にずぶ濡れ。マングローブの独特の根っこは増水であまりよく見えなかったが、そのお陰で樹齢400年とも600年とも云われるサキシマスオウの大木の見られる船着場に着岸できた！その後のグラスボートは中止になったが、代わりに牛車による竹富島巡りとなりこれはこれで中々良かった。後半はお天気も少し回復し、楽しめた。
