All Reviews for Bus Tours

I was able to tour and sightsee in the northern part of Okinawa in just one day! I could visit tourist spots around Nago at a reasonable price! I went to Manzamo, Kouri Island, Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, Pineapple Park, and Okashi Goten, and not only did I enjoy sightseeing, but I was also able to buy souvenirs! Although I didn't have meals included, I could eat at each tourist spot, so I was able to get around without any inconvenience! Thank you!

1日で沖縄北部を周遊・観光出来ました！リーズナブルな価格で名護周辺の観光地を周遊出来ました！万座毛, 古宇利島, 沖縄美ら海, ﾊﾟｲﾅｯﾌﾟﾙﾊﾟｰｸ, 御菓子御殿と観光だけでなく, おみやげ物も買うことが出来ました！食事は無かったですが,各観光地で食事が出来たので,不便なく回る事が出来ました！ありがとうございました！

I was able to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots in half a day! Since I had a transfer to the airport on the last day, I was able to smoothly complete my itinerary! I was satisfied as I could visit the main attractions, including Sefa Utaki and Okinawa World, at a reasonable price. I was also pleased to visit Nago, Naha, and Itoman in two days! Thank you!

半日で観光地を効率良く回れました！最終日空港へ送迎付きだったので, スムーズに日程をこなすことが出来ました！斎場御嶽とおきなわワールドとリーズナブルな価格で主要な観光出来たので満足しています。2日間で名護と那覇, 糸満と回れたので満足しています！ありがとうございます！

It was a journey where I could truly feel that the topography, agricultural, forestry, and fishery products, as well as the flora and fauna of Okinawa, are thanks to the Ryukyu limestone. Since Okinawa aims to be a tourist nation, the level of the guides and facility staff is high. This was my fourth visit, and each time I gained new insights and resolved questions. However, new questions have arisen, and it seems I will be visiting again. The sightseeing bus tours, in particular, are excellent value for money and highly recommended.

沖縄の地形、農林水産物、動植物は、琉球石灰岩のおかげということが実感できる旅でした。沖縄は、観光立国を目指しているだけに、ガイドさんや施設担当者の方々のレベルが高い。今回で4回目の訪問でしたが、毎回新たな知見と疑問の解消を果たせました。ところが、また新たな疑問が生じ、またまた訪問することになりそうです。
特に観光バスツアーは、コスパ抜群でおすすめです。

The tour was not affected by the weather and covered everything. It rained quite heavily, but I felt very satisfied. I would like to participate again when I travel to Okinawa. Both the guide and the bus driver were great!

ツアー内容は天候に左右されず
すべて回ってくれ、
そこそこ強い雨だったが満足感が高い。
また沖縄旅行の時は参加したい。
ガイド、バスドライバー共に良かった‼︎

I was able to participate without any issues as a solo traveler. The timing was just right, and the guide was polite and did a great job of keeping everything organized.

1人参加でも問題なく過ごすことができました。時間は過不足無く、ガイドの方も丁寧でしっかりと場をまとめていて素晴らしかったです。

The bus meeting point was crowded with other buses, making it hard to find.
I couldn't listen to the audio guidance on my smartphone, so it would have been nice if it had been played inside the bus.
It would have also been helpful to be informed about the travel time to the destination.
I was very satisfied with the cost for the Churaumi Aquarium tour and dinner.

バスの待ち合わせ場所が他のバスと混雑しており、わかりづらいです。
スマホで音声ガイダンスが聴けないかったので、車内で流していただけたら良かったです。
また行き先までの所要時間なども伝えてくださればよかったです。
ちゅら海観光、ディナーまでの金額で大変満足しました。

It felt just right in terms of timing. It would be even better if we could make a quick stop at the Himeyuri Monument. The humid limestone cave was a first for me.

時間的にちょうどよい感じでした。ひめゆりの塔にちょっとだけ寄ってもらえるとよりよいかと。　蒸し暑い鍾乳洞は初めてでした

The meeting place was easy to find (I think other tours have similar locations as well), and the time allocation afterwards was just right. The steak wasn't delicious, so I think it was unnecessary.

集合場所もわかりやすく（他のツアーも同じような場所とは思う）　その後の時間配分もちょうどよし。　ステーキは美味しくなかったので不要かと思います。

I'm glad I was able to visit various places. The weather was nice for November, and I was able to see a beautiful sea. The guide's attentiveness was wonderful, and it was great that they were flexible with changes to the drop-off location. Thank you for the enjoyable time.

色んな所を回れてよかった。
この日は11月にしては天気が良く綺麗な海が見れました。ガイドさんの気配りも素晴らしく、降車場所の変更等柔軟な対応をされていて良かった。
楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

Half-day sightseeing until the evening flight. It was very fulfilling.

Since it was a sightseeing tour, I thought we would be taken around in a conveyor-belt manner, but there was plenty of time for each stop, and the explanations from the bus guide made the visits very meaningful.

You can choose between Okinawa World and the Valley of Gangala, and I chose the Valley of Gangala.

Together with a dedicated guide, we formed a team of about a dozen people and set off. They provide lanterns in dark areas. The Valley of Gangala is very mystical, with nature preserved as it is. The mystery of the Minatogawa people. The banyan tree walks!? It was a thrilling tour.

I want to go again. I felt like each time I visit, my experience is different.

夕方のフライトまでの半日観光。
とても中身の濃いものでした。

観光ツアーなので流れ作業的に連れて行かれるのかと思いきや、それぞれにたっぷり時間があり、バスガイドさんの説明があってからの見学はとても有意義なものでした。

沖縄ワールドとガンガラーの谷とを選べるのですが、私はガンガラーの谷を選択。

専属のガイドさんと共に十数人1チームとなって、出発。
暗いところはランタンを貸してくれます。
とても神秘的で自然がそのまま残されているガンガラーの谷。
港川人の謎。
ガジュマルの木が歩く⁉
ワクワクしっぱなしのツアーでした。

また行きたいと思います。
行く度に感じ方が違うような気がしました。

This is a recommended tour for those traveling to Okinawa for the first time, especially for those with evening flights. The tour ended around 1:30 PM, and we were dropped off at the airport. After having lunch inside the airport, we were able to relax and browse for souvenirs. In early December, the weather was warm enough to feel a bit sweaty even in spring attire.

On the way to Sefa Utaki by bus, we passed through the Nirai Bridge and Kanai Bridge, which offer a beautiful view of the ocean. The left side seats provide a view until the first curve, while the right side seats have a better view of the ocean during the later curves.

There was a reception area similar to a roadside station, where we purchased our entrance tickets to Sefa Utaki from a vending machine starting at 8:45 AM. I recommend bringing a parasol and sunglasses until the entrance of Sefa Utaki, as it can get quite sunny. Having both hands free is also advisable since we walked up a paved slope for about five minutes with no shade.

At the entrance of the sacred site, we handed over our tickets and watched a short video inside the building before walking through the forest. There was no guide with us on-site. It was beautiful, and the breeze felt nice.

In the Valley of Gangala, you can see beautiful forests, caves, and excavation sites that you won't find on the main island. It's a must-see. The guide in the Valley of Gangala explained everything very well, making it an enjoyable tour. Before we departed, they provided us with insect repellent and a tumbler of sanpin tea, making it a very good tour. Sunglasses and a parasol were not necessary here.

The bus guide's stories were also enjoyable. Thank you very much.

沖縄へ初めての旅行の方、夕方フライトの方におすすめしたいツアーです。
終了は、13:30ころ空港で降ろしていただきました。
空港内でランチのあと、おみやげをみてゆっくり過ごせました。
12月上旬で、春先の装いでも汗ばむ陽気でした。


ツアーは、バスで斎場御嶽へ向かう道中、ニライ橋カナイ橋（海が見渡せる大橋）を通ります。
本当に美しいです。
進行方向、左側の座席は最初のカーブまで、後半カーブで右側の座席の方が海を見渡せます。

道の駅のようなところに受付があり、8:45から斎場御嶽の入場料を自販機で自分で購入して、移動という形です。
斎場御嶽の入口までは、日傘、サングラスをおすすめします。
両手が自由になるのもおすすめです。
バスガイドさんと舗装された坂道を5分程あがるから日陰がありません。


御嶽の入り口で、チケットを渡し、建物内で数分映像をみてから、山（森）の中を歩いて見学します。現地ではガイドさんはついていません。
美しく、風が気持ちよかったです。

ガンガラーの谷も本州では見られない美しい森の様子や洞くつ、発掘跡が見られます。必見です。
ガンガラーの谷のガイドさんがとても上手に説明してくださるので、楽しいツアーです。
出発前に虫除けをかしてくださり、さんぴん茶のタンブラーをくださり、とても、よいツアーでした。こちらは、サングラスや日傘は、不要でした。

バスガイドさんのお話も楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。

I'm glad I chose this course. The weather was nice, the scenery was beautiful, and I had a great experience. It wasn't as tough as I expected.

このコースを選択して良かったです。
天気もよく、景色もよく、
いい体験ができました。
思ったよりきつくなかったです。

I wanted to visit Gyokusendo, so I signed up for this half-day tour. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations for Okinawa World, but the Eisa and habu shows were interesting, and the streets of Ryukyu had their own highlights.

Gyokusendo is long. I've been to various caves before, but I think this one is by far the longest.

Moreover, since you go underground, I dressed warmly for the cold, but the cave is actually warm, so those planning to visit should be mindful of their clothing.

Next time I come, I want to take my time and try various experiences like making Ryukyu glass.

玉泉洞に行ってみたくて、こちらの半日ツアーに申し込みました。
正直、おきなわワールドはそれほど期待していなかったのですが
エイサーやハブのショーが面白かったり、琉球の街並みも
見どころがありました。

玉泉洞は、長いです。
今まで色々な鍾乳洞に行きましたが、
体感でダントツに長いと思います。

しかも、地下に潜るので寒さ対策で厚着をしてしまいましたが
鍾乳洞は暖かいのでこれから行かれる方は服装ご注意ください。

次回来るときはもっとゆっくり時間をとって
琉球ガラス作りなど体験をいろいろやってみたいです。

Freshly made sata andagi at Manza Beach, wine at Pineapple Park, the stunning views of Kouri Island, the aquarium's visit duration was just right, and the cakes at the Churaumi Snack Castle were delicious (it would have been nice to have tea or coffee as well). Each spot also had restroom breaks, so I was able to enjoy the bus trip with peace of mind.

　万座毛の出来たてのサーターアンダギー　パイナップルパークのワインに蝶　古宇利島の絶景　水族館の滞在時間も丁度よいし　お菓子御殿のケーキはおいしい（お茶か珈琲もあったら良かった）スポットごとにトイレ休憩も兼ねているので安心してバス旅を堪能できました　

My child wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I made a reservation. However, I thought it might be a long journey just to go there, which could be tiring for my child (since we have a 2-year-old), so we joined this tour that allows for various stops along the way.

At the Nago Pineapple Park, there were many dinosaur models. It was impressive, and my child was very excited! Of course, the pineapples were also exquisite. After that, we stopped by the beach, where we could collect seashells, and it turned out to be more enjoyable than I expected.

Additionally, the bus guide's explanations were very easy to understand, and they even performed a song along the way, which was quite skillful. I felt like I got my money's worth.

As for the main aquarium, there was a distance from the tourist bus drop-off to the entrance, which took time for my child to walk. Including the time spent waiting for tickets near the entrance, it took about 30 minutes (round trip). Unfortunately, the free time we had at the aquarium was not a full 150 minutes, which was a bit disappointing.

子供が美ら海水族館に行きたいと言うので、予約しました。
ただ、そこだけとなると、道中長くて、子供がしんどいかな？と思い(2歳もいるので)、色々立ち寄れる、こちらのツアーに参加しました。
途中の名護パイナップルパークでは、恐竜の模型がたくさん。迫力もあり、子供は大興奮！もちろんパイナップルも絶品でした。
それからビーチに立ち寄り、貝殻拾いなどもできて、予想以上に楽しめました。
また、バスガイドさんの解説も大変わかりやすく、途中で唄を披露下さいましたが、お上手なこと。得した気分になりました。
メインの水族館ですが、観光バスの降り場から入口まで距離があり、子供の足では時間かかりました。また、入口付近でチケットを待つ時間等を含めると、約30分程は時間がかかりました(往復です)。水族館での自由時間が、正味150分ではなかったので、そこだけが残念でした。

It was a group with many foreigners, but Kim was a very skilled guide. The explanations were kind, thank you very much.

外国人の方が多いグループでしたがキムさんがとても上手にガイドしてくださいました。説明も親切でした、ありがとうございました。

The tour to Kudaka Island was canceled due to the ferry being out of service. I applied the day before, hoping to at least visit the Seifa Utaki. I thought it would be good just to go, but the guide was extremely experienced, and just listening to him was very educational. I also enjoyed Okinawa World. I felt it was more cost-effective than going by rental car. The view of Kudaka Island from Seifa Utaki was divine, and I'm glad I participated.

久高島のツアーがフェリー欠航で中止
斎場御嶽にだけでも行きたいと前日に申し込みしました
とにかく行かれればよいと思っていたのですが
ガイドさんが超ベテランの方で
聞いているだけでとても勉強になりました
そしておきなわワールドも楽しむことができました
レンタカーで行くよりお得感があった気がします
斎場御嶽からの久高島の景色も神々しく参加してよかったです

My friend, who visited Okinawa for the first time, also enjoyed the Okinawa Royal Course. It seems to be a popular course as it was fully booked even on a weekday. I wish we could have extended our return by 30 minutes to have an extra 5 or 10 minutes at each sightseeing spot.

沖縄王道コースで初沖縄の友人も楽しんでいました。平日でも満席だったので人気のコースのようです。30分帰りを遅くして各所の観光時間を5分でも10分でも長くできたらなと思いました。

The Haisai Show is full of powerful taiko drums and sanshin performances, while also incorporating comedy that makes you laugh and leaves you wanting to see it again.

ハイサイショーは、太鼓と三線の迫力が満点でありながら、コメディタッチで笑いがあり、また観たいと思わせます。

The weather was great, and I was able to fully enjoy the Okinawa experience, making it an incredibly satisfying tour from start to finish. Since it was my first time in Okinawa, I was able to create many memories, so I'm really glad I participated! Thank you very much!

天候もよく、沖縄感をしっかり満喫できて終始大満足なツアーとなりました。
初めての沖縄でたくさんの思い出も作れたので、参加できて本当によかったです！
ありがとうございました

Thank you for your attentive service and commitment to safety.
Thanks to the well-planned schedule, I was able to enjoy various sightseeing spots.
There are places I liked that I would like to visit again slowly next time.
I was a bit anxious about the many buses at the meeting point in front of the prefectural office, but since I was informed about the bus designs in advance, I didn't get lost.
At the aquarium, you can enjoy the elegant swimming of the dolphins from the side window of their waiting tank all to yourself.

丁寧な接客と安全第一に気を付けていただき有難う御座います。
絶妙な時間割により色々な観光地を満喫できました。
気に入った場所は、次回にゆっくり訪問したいと思います。
集合場所の県庁前にバスが沢山あり不安でしたが、バスの模様を事前に教えていただいていたので迷わなくてすみました。
水族館では、イルカの待機水槽の横窓から優雅に泳ぐ姿を独り占めできます。

We participated with one adult and three children. Since it was an unfamiliar tourist destination, the bus tour was great because it took us to the destination... We could even sleep during the ride, which was really nice.

大人1人、子供３人での参加でした。知らない観光地なので、バスツアーでが、目的地まで連れて行ってくれるし…移動中は、寝てても良いし、すごく良かったです。

I was a bit anxious about renting a car, so I decided to go with a bus tour. The course I wanted was great, and the tour guide was good as well. The time allocated for the Churaumi Aquarium was well-planned, but the time at Kouri Island and Manza Beach was short, so I would have liked to take it a bit slower. However, I think it's understandable given how much we covered, so I believe it's very good for those who want to see a lot of places. I would like to participate in a different course next time as well.

レンタカーでは何かと不安だったのでバスツアーに決めました。
行きたいコースで添乗員の方も良かったです。
美ら海水族館の時間配分は良かったですが、その後の古宇利島、万座毛の時間が短かったのでもっとゆっくりしたかったです。でもこれだけ回るには仕方ないかなとは思うのでいろいろ行きたい人にはとても良いと思います。
また、違うコースでも参加してみたいと思います。

I was worried because the weather forecast predicted cloudy skies followed by rain, but I was able to enjoy the tour without getting rained on. During the bus ride, the tour guide shared various interesting stories about Okinawa, which allowed us to appreciate the background of the tour while sightseeing. I was particularly moved by the overwhelming nature of the Gyokusendo Valley.

天気予報は曇りのち雨だったので心配でしたが、ツアー中は雨にも降られず楽しめました。
バスの中では添乗員さんが、色々沖縄にまつわるお話を楽しくしてくれて、よりツアーを背景が分かりながら観光することも出来ました。特にガンガーラの谷は圧倒的な自然に感動でした。

On the first day, the dinner at the Churaumi Aquarium tour was just like the scene from the TV show "Chimudondon," as all the guests danced the Kachashi.

１日目は美ら海水族館観光コースの夕食のあんがまはみんなお客さんがカチャーシーを踊るのでちむどんどんのTVのまんまでした。

It was very good.
There were explanations about the Okinawa region during the travel, so I wasn't bored.
I wanted more time at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, so I would like to participate again if there is a tour focused specifically on the Churaumi Aquarium.
Considering transportation costs and transfers to get to the Churaumi Aquarium, I think participating in a tour is the best option, so I believe there is demand for it...
Please consider this.

とても良かったです。
移動中も沖縄の地域の説明などがあり退屈しませんでした。
美ら海水族館の時間がもっと欲しかったので行き先を絞った美ら海水族館に特化したツアーがあればまた参加したいです。
美ら海水族館に行くには、交通費や乗り継ぎの事を考えるとツアーに参加するのが最適だと思うので需要はあると思うんですが…
是非ご検討ください。

First, we gathered and boarded the bus heading to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. After a short walk from the parking lot to the aquarium, we spent about two hours exploring it. The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium has plenty of places to eat, including restaurants and food trucks, so you won't have any trouble finding lunch. After that, we went to the Okashi Goten. There is only a 20-minute stay at Okashi Goten, so you need to decide on your purchases quickly. Next, we headed to Manzamo. There is also only a 20-minute stay at Manzamo, so let's act quickly. The view at Manzamo is very beautiful. After that, we moved to Ryukyu Village to experience the streets of Ryukyu, where we stayed for about an hour. There is also a butterfly house where you can interact with the butterflies. After that, we will stay at Banta Cafe for about an hour. At Banta Cafe, you will receive a drink ticket, allowing you to choose one drink from pineapple juice, sanpin tea, or coffee. From there, we will return to the drop-off location.

まず、集合してバスに乗り込み、美ら海水族館へ向かいました。駐車場から美ら海水族館まで少し歩き、約2時間美ら海水族館を観光しました。美ら海水族館にはレストランやキッチンカーなど、ご飯を食べるところがたくさんあるので昼食には困りません。その後、御菓子御殿に行きました。御菓子御殿は20分しか滞在時間が無いのですぐに購入品を決める必要があります。その後、万座毛に行きました。万座毛も20分しか滞在時間が無いので素早く行動しましょう。万座毛はとても景色が綺麗です。その後琉球村に移動して琉球の街並みを体験しました。こちらは約1時間滞在しました。中には蝶々のハウスもあり、触れ合うことも出来ました。その後、バンタカフェに約1時間滞在します。バンタカフェではドリンクチケットを頂けるので、パインジュース、さんぴん茶、コーヒーから1種類選び、飲むことが出来ます。そこから降車場所へ帰るという流れになります。

I participated in a bus tour!!

At first, I was worried about whether I would enjoy it, but the guide was very kind and made the tour very pleasant.

I thought there would be time restrictions at each location, making it difficult to see everything, but surprisingly, I was able to cover everything I wanted to see and do, so I was very satisfied! I even got to go into the sea!

The weather was also great, and the sunset at the Star Resort Café we visited last was an unforgettable sight.

Thank you for the wonderful tour!! I would love to participate again!

バスツアーに参加させて頂きました！！

楽しめるか最初不安でしたが、ガイドの方が優しく接して下さりとても心地よくツアーを楽しめました。

ツアー各地で時間制限が設けられているので中々回れないんだろうなぁと思っていたのですが案外やりたい事見たいもの全部網羅出来たので大満足です！
ちゃんと海にも入れました！

天候にも恵まれ、最後に行った星のリゾートカフェのサンセットがとにかく心に残る景色でした。

素敵なツアーをありがとうございます！！
また参加させてください！

It was a very fulfilling one-day tour. I was able to visit all the places I wanted to see: Churaumi Aquarium, Kouri Island, Manzamo, Okashi Goten, and American Village, so it was great to see them all in one day. The timing of the announcements for each location was also well understood.
If possible, I think it would be nice to have 180 minutes at Churaumi Aquarium since it is large and requires some movement from the parking lot.

とても充実した一日ツアーでした。美ら海水族館、古宇利島、万座毛、御菓子御殿、アメリカンビレッジと行きたかった所だったので、１日で見れてとてめ良かったです。放送で流れる、各地の案内のタイミングも良く理解できました。
できたら美ら海水族館は広くて駐車場からの移動もあるので180分あると良いなと思いました。

On my first trip to Okinawa, I signed up for a bus tour since I didn't have a driver's license, and it was great to visit various places in one day. However, perhaps I was too greedy, as the stay time at each location was short, which seemed a bit too busy for my 69-year-old mother. It might be more suitable for younger people. There were also several participants who were traveling alone, and they seemed to be enjoying themselves.

During the tour, I particularly liked the aquarium and Kouri Island. The bus played music from a music box, and at various points, there were automated announcements in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and English explaining the sights we were passing, which helped me learn a bit more about Okinawa.

At one point, I felt frustrated with some people who didn't keep track of the return time, which I think was a misunderstanding of the schedule. Even though it was a trip, I would have preferred if everyone could adhere to the time so we could enjoy the experience more comfortably. (There were also automated announcements regarding such reminders.)

初めての沖縄旅行で、免許が無いのでバスツアーを申し込み、沖縄の各地を１日で巡れて良かったです。
ただ、欲張り過ぎてるのか、１箇所あたりの滞在時間が短く、69歳の母には忙し過ぎた様です。
若い子向きかもしれません。
お一人で参加されてる方も何人もいらっしゃり、楽しまれていたように思います。
コース中では水族館と古宇利島が好きでした。
車内はオルゴールの音楽がかかっており、要所要所で日本語、中国語、韓国語、英語の順で向かってる途中に見える事柄について自動音声？の説明が流れるので、沖縄知識がちょっと増えたかと。
途中、時間を勘違いをしたのか、戻る時間を守らない人達に不満を感じ、旅行とはいえそこは守っていただいて気持ちよく過ごしたかったです。(そういう注意事項の自動音声アナウンスもありました)
