All Reviews for Bus Tours

It's still hot and humid with occasional light rain, making it quite uncomfortable. It's advisable to wear semi-trekking shoes as the ground can be slippery. If you're not good with insects, it's better to refrain from going out.

まだまだ暑く小雨でジメジメ高不快指数時期です。
滑りやすいのでセミトレッキングシューズ等が良いでしょう。
虫が苦手の方は遠慮がベターでしょう。

I took my parents on their first trip to Okinawa. It was helpful that we could visit the main attractions. Manza Beach requires an additional fee. For some reason, there are dinosaurs at Pineapple Park?! On this day, the tour company prepared sandwiches for us on Kouri Island. The Churaumi Dolphin Show limits the number of people seated, so it's best to arrive more than 20 minutes before the start time. The botanical garden in the park has an additional fee. You can buy fresh purple sweet potato tarts at the purple sweet potato tart shop.

初沖縄の両親を連れて行きました。　主な場所を回れたので助かりました。　万座毛は別料金が必要。　パイナップルパークに、なぜか恐竜が？！　　この日はツアー会社が、古宇利島でサンドイッチを用意していてくれました。　　美ら海のイルカショーは、人を間引きして座らせているので　開始時間の２０分以上前には行った方がいいです。　公園内の植物園は別料金です。紅イモタルト屋で、生紅イモタルトが買えます。

I had signed up for a tour with a rental car, but since I don't drive often, I was looking for a local tour and found this one that covers all the places I wanted to visit. We had plenty of time at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium and visited various spots, and it felt relatively relaxed. The admission fee is included, so I definitely think it's a great deal. Above all, it was great to efficiently visit the places I wanted to go.

レンタカー付きのツアーで申し込みしていましたが、あまり普段運転しないため現地ツアーを探していたところ行きたいところを網羅したこのツアーを見つけました。美ら海水族館でもたっぷり時間がとれ色々まわりましたが、割りとゆったりまわれたかなといった感じです。
入場料も込みなので絶対お得だと思います。
何より行きたい場所に効率良くまわれて良かったです。

Last time, I visited the Valley of Gangala on the same tour, so this time I visited Okinawa World. It was closed during my previous visit, but I found it to be a very flexible tour since it allows for a split between the two adjacent facilities.

I recommend focusing on specific activities, as visiting the Habitats Garden and participating in craft experiences can take up a lot of time.

Perhaps due to the low number of participants (10 people) during the COVID-19 pandemic, there were fewer bus pickup locations than announced in the itinerary, and we ended up finishing earlier than planned. I was unsure whether to have them drop me off at the airport when I signed up for the tour, but I was able to enjoy sightseeing in Naha after getting off at the north exit of the prefectural office until my flight departure time. I was very satisfied with how I could fully utilize my time.

The bus guide was different from the last time, but just like before, they were very enthusiastic! They even sang folk songs, making the ride and facility visits a very enjoyable and fulfilling half-day experience.

Thank you very much!

前回、同じツアーでガンガラーの谷を見学したので、今回はおきなわワールドを訪問しました。
その時はおきなわワールドが休日だったので無理でしたが、隣接しあう2施設を回る為に途中解散も可能とのことで、とても融通の利くツアーだと思いました。

おきなわワールド内のハブ園を見学したり、工芸体験等すると時間が足りなくなるので、目的を絞って参加されることをお勧めします。

コロナ禍で参加者が少なかったのか（10名）、バスの送迎場所が公表の旅程より少なくて済み、予定より早めの解散となりました。
ツアー申込時は空港まで送ってもらおうか悩みましたが、県庁北口で降りて飛行機出発時間まで那覇観光を楽しむことが出来ました。時間をフルに有効活用出来て大満足です。

バスのガイドさんは前回とは違う方でしたが、前回と同じく、サービス精神旺盛！！！民謡まで歌って下さり、乗車中も施設見学中も、お陰様でとっても楽しく充実した半日を過ごせました。

ありがとうございました！

We departed from Naha City around 9 AM to arrive at the sacred site of Sefa Utaki, which opens at 9 AM. It was impressive to visit this representative holy place of Okinawa, where national ceremonies were held during the Ryukyu Kingdom era. Upon entering Okinawa World, we first explored the limestone cave, Gyokusendo, located underground. It took us about 25 minutes to walk through at a leisurely pace. Above Gyokusendo, there is a theme park area that recreates the castle town of the Ryukyu Kingdom, which we spent the remaining time exploring. We had enough time at both sites. Since no one got off at Naha Airport, we arrived at Kencho-mae around 1 PM. It would be difficult to visit these two places in the southern region on your own in half a day, so we were able to enjoy an efficient sightseeing experience.

朝９時から入場できる斎場御嶽にあわせて那覇市内を出発して９時頃に到着しました。琉球王朝時代に国家的な祭事が行われてきた沖縄を代表する聖地で見ごたえがありました。おきなわワールドに入場してまず地下にある鍾乳洞の玉泉洞を見学しました。ゆっくり歩いて２５分くらいかかりました。玉泉洞の上がテーマパークになっていて琉球王国の城下町を再現されたエリアを残りの時間を使って見学しました。両見学地で時間が足りなくなることはなかったです。那覇空港で下車する人がいなかったので、１３時頃、県庁前に到着しました。半日で南部のこの２カ所を自力でまわるのは難しいので、効率の良い観光ができました。

The bus provided a thorough explanation, and I was able to enjoy the journey without getting bored, thanks to the trees and local dialect along the way. They also point out interesting sights and photo opportunities during the trip. Whether you're a first-timer or a repeat visitor, you can have a great time.

バスの中で丁寧な説明、道中木々や方言など退屈なく過ごせました。
移動中も見所わ撮影ポイントや教えてくれます。
初めてのかたやリピートの方でも楽しく過ごせます。

The tour guide and the local guide at the Gangala Valley were both very skilled at explaining, and I was very satisfied with the tour itself. However, someone else who participated in the same tour and booked through a different site was able to use other discounts and even had a free option included, so I felt like I missed out a lot. I will make sure to compare other sites more before making a reservation next time.

ツアーガイドも、ガンガラー谷の現地ガイドもすごく説明上手でツアー自体はとても満足でした。
しかし、同じツアーに参加していた別のサイトで予約した方は他の割引も使えており、さらに無料のオプションも付いていたので自分はすごく損をした感じでした。
もっと他のサイトも見比べて予約するようにします。

The guide at the Valley of Gangala had a connection to Shizuoka, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I was surprised that the bus on the day before and the day before that had WiFi, but the conductor from Toyo Bus sang Okinawan folk songs and performed a paper play, which was a lot of fun. I thought it was nice to have these traditional bus tours. The timing was perfect for returning to the city just as we got hungry after half a day!

ガンガラーの谷の、ガイドさんが静岡と縁があって、より楽しく参加できました。前々日と前日のバスがWiFi有リだったので、無しって！？思ったのですが、「東陽バス」のコンダクターさんが沖縄民謡を歌ってくれたり紙芝居をしてくれたり、楽しくて。こういった、昔ながらのバスツアーもイイなって思いました。半日でちょうどお腹がすくタイミングで、街中に戻る行程もイイですね！

I have been to Okinawa about 20 times, but it was my first time visiting Kouri Island and Manza Beach. Personally, the time allocation was just right. (Pineapple Park might have been a bit long.) I felt reassured that hand sanitizer was available everywhere. It was great that they picked me up from the hotel I was staying at and dropped me off at my destination hotel on the way back. Staying at multiple hotels while being able to sightsee and travel was the best experience.

沖縄には20回程行っていますが、古宇利島、万座毛は初めてでした。
個人的に時間配分は丁度でした。
(パイナップルパークは少し長かったかも)
消毒液が至る所にあり安心しました。
宿泊してたホテルにてピックアップ、帰りは目的のホテルまで送ってくれたのが良かったです。
複数のホテルに泊まり、観光もできて移動も兼ねられたので最高でした。

Thank you for taking me to the sightseeing spots. The bus guide was very kind and made the experience enjoyable by sharing detailed information about Okinawa, sometimes even singing. The steak was delicious too.

名所に連れて行って頂きありがとうございました。バスガイドさんも凄く親切で沖縄の事を詳しく楽しく時には歌が入りと楽しく過ごさせていただきました。ステーキも美味しかったですよ。

I was the only one in our group of three girls who had never been to Okinawa before, so I was really glad we could visit the Seifa Utaki, which is not a place everyone usually goes to. The ground was slippery due to the rain, but I was satisfied with the photos I took with the sunlight shining through beautifully.

At Okinawa World, I was thrilled to see the Super Eisa performance, explored the limestone cave, and even enjoyed tea at the Bukubuku Chaya. We managed our time well and moved efficiently. The paths in the cave were wet from the rain, and one of my friends slipped and fell twice, which was funny.

Everyone made it to the bus on time, so we departed smoothly without any worries. The bus guide was very clear and easy to understand, and the meeting times and locations were well communicated.

女子3人での旅行で、私だけ沖縄はじめての上陸だったため、みんなが普段あまり行っていない斎場御嶽に行けてよかった。雨で足元は滑りやすかったが、太陽がいい感じに差し込んだ写真が撮れ、満足だった。
おきなわワールドでは、スーパーエイサーを見れて感激し、鍾乳洞も見学、さらにブクブク茶屋でお茶することができ、時間もちょうど良く効率的にまわることができた。鍾乳洞の足場も雨で濡れていて、ひとりの友達は2回滑って転けてしまった笑
バスも集合時間に皆間に合うことで時間通りにでスムーズなアテンドで、心配することはほとんどなかった。
バスガイドさんもハキハキとしていて、説明もわかりやすく、集合時間場所も明確だった。

I found and participated in a half-day tour. I enjoyed both the Sefa Utaki and Okinawa World. Okinawa World is designed in a way that leads you through souvenir shops, making it difficult to go straight to your intended destination, which takes up time. The Gyokusendo Cave was impressive, but the scenery became repetitive, and I got a bit bored halfway through. I was able to arrive at the airport a little early. I thought it would be nice if there were tours available in the afternoon on the day of arrival in Okinawa. Thank you to the driver and the guide.

半日ツアーを見つけて参加しました。
斎場御嶽とおきなわワールド、どちらも楽しめました。
おきなわワールドは、お土産屋さんに入らせる作りで、目的の場所に真っ直ぐ行けない仕組みになってて、移動に時間くいます。
玉泉洞は圧巻でしたが、同じような景色が続くので、途中から飽きてしまいました。
空港には、少し早めに到着することが出来ました。
沖縄到着日の午後からのツアーもあると良いのにと思いました。
運転手さん、ガイドさん、ありがとうございました。

I was able to visit Sefa Utaki first thing in the morning, and I joined the guided tour of the Gangala Valley with hardly any wait. It was a fulfilling half-day experience that felt much longer.

斎場御嶽に朝一に行くことができ、ガンガラーの谷もほとんど待つことなくガイドツアーに参加でき半日とは思えないくらい充実できました。

The weather was wonderful, and I enjoyed the nature and beautiful scenery of Okinawa. The guide was amazing, and together with the driver, I was impressed by their professionalism. The sightseeing bus, which efficiently takes you around, is perfect for those who are not good at driving or for the elderly. When I come back, I definitely want to try a different course. I appreciate the service spirit of the people of Okinawa.

お天気にも恵まれて、沖縄の自然や美しい景色を堪能しました。
ガイドさんはとても素晴らしく、ドライバーさん共々、さすがプロだなぁと感心しました。
短い滞在でも、効率よく回ってくれる観光バスは運転が苦手な方や高齢者には最高です。
また来た時は、違うコースをぜひ体験してみたいと思います。
沖縄の人のサービス精神に感謝。

The guide's explanations were very easy to understand and great. It was a rainy day, so we explored while wearing raincoats, but the steps weren't too steep, and it went by in no time.

ガイドさんの話はとてもわかりやすく，よかったです。
雨の日だったので、カッパを着ての散策でしたが、それほど段差もキツくなくあっという間でした。

I'm glad I was able to visit the places I wanted to in a short amount of time. I felt very lucky to visit Sefa Utaki at 9:00 in the morning. At the Gangala Valley, the guide provided very detailed information. I was able to return to Kencho-mae around 13:00, which allowed me to catch my flight back from Okinawa, and I had a meaningful time.

行きたかった場所に短時間でサクッと周れてよかったです。斎場御嶽は朝一番の9:00に行けたのはすごくラッキーだなと思いました。ガンガラーの谷ではガイドさんがとても詳しく教えてくれます。13:00くらいには県庁前に帰ってこれるので沖縄から帰りの飛行機にも間に合いましたし、有意義な時間を過ごせました。

The bus ride was filled with various information, making it a very enjoyable experience. The rapid-fire conversation was the best! It was a wonderful performance, and I would love to meet again. Thank you very much.

バス移動中もずっといろいろな情報を教えてくれて、とっても楽しい車内でした。マシンガントーク（笑）最高でした。また、お会いしたいステキな仕事ぶりでした。ありがとうございました。

It was a bus tour with everyone going to the nearby Churaumi Aquarium. If you're planning to visit the Dream Center, this tour is just the right amount of time, providing a great sense of satisfaction and convenience!

近隣の美ら海水族館にいく皆様と一緒のバスでの移動ツアーでした。
ドリームセンターを回るとしたら時間的にも丁度良く、満足感と利便背が高いツアーでした！

I used this service on the last day of my trip to Okinawa. The driver and guide were very kind, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing. Unfortunately, I didn't receive the regional common coupon email, and after inquiring, I finally got the email. Since it was the last day and I had limited time to use it, I was quite anxious.

沖縄旅行の最終日に利用しました。
運転手さん、ガイドさん、とても親切で楽しく観光できました。
残念なのは地域共通クーポンのメールが届かず問い合わせをしてやっとメールが来ました。
最終日で使う時間も限られていた為、ヤキモキしました。

I have traveled to Okinawa several times, but it was my first visit to places that were difficult to access. The bus guide's explanations were very easy to understand. I was disappointed that I could only go partway to Sefa Utaki due to the impact of COVID-19, but I could still feel the atmosphere.

沖縄は数回旅行していますが、アクセスが面倒で初めて訪問するところばかりでした。
バスガイドの事前の説明もとても分かりやすいです。
斎場御嶽はコロナの影響で途中までしか行くことができず残念でしたが、雰囲気は伝わります。

It was a tour that could be joined from a hotel in Onna Village. They were attentive to COVID-19 measures, allowing us to enjoy it with peace of mind. It was a well-organized one-day sightseeing tour that was very satisfying.

恩納村のホテルから参加できるツアーでした。コロナ対策にも気にかけておられ、安心して楽しめました。要所を抑えた１日の観光ツアーで充分満足のいくものでした。

The tour itself was good, but the bus guide would rush ahead without particularly checking on the participants when guiding us to the destination. The explanations about the Okinawa area on the bus felt like she was just reading from a guidebook, and since it was during the COVID period, I thought I would have preferred to just take a nap instead. However, the tour guide at the Valley of Gangala was very good.

ツアー自体はよかったですが、バスガイドさんが目的地に案内するときスタスタと参加者を特に確認せずに行ってしまったり、バスでの沖縄周辺の説明もガイドブックを棒読みしている感じでコロナ時期だったのでだったらゆっくり眠っていたかったなぁと思いました。
ガンガラーの谷のツアーガイドのお姉さんはとてもよかったです。

The course included a visit to the Valley of Gangala and Sefa Utaki. I joined thinking it would just be a way to pass the time on the last day of my trip to Okinawa, but each spot was impressive, and it was a very meaningful tour where I could learn about the roots of the Japanese people. The in-car guide, the local guide, and the driver were all very courteous, which left a good impression. On the way back, I was dropped off at Naha Airport, and even though my flight was at 2 PM, the itinerary allowed plenty of time to make it, possibly due to traffic conditions. This is a tour I would like to join again when I come back to Okinawa.

ガンガラーの谷と斎場御嶽を周るコースでした。沖縄旅行最終日の時間潰し程度のつもりで参加しましたが、どのスポットも見応えがあり、日本人のルーツについて学べる大変有意義な充実したツアー内容でした。車内ガイドさん、現地ガイドさん、運転手さん、皆さん対応が丁寧で印象も良かったです。帰りは那覇空港で降ろしてもらえる事もあり、午後2時のフライトでしたが交通事情もあってか、十分間に合う行程でした。また沖縄に来たら参加したいツアーです。

There was a guide available on the bus at all times, and I really enjoyed my first solo trip to Okinawa. Since the sea looks different depending on the weather, I would like to participate again on a sunny day.

随時車内でのガイドがあり、初沖縄一人旅でとても楽しめました。
天気により海の表情が違うため、晴天の日にまた参加したいです。

There were about 30 participants despite the COVID-19 pandemic. The tour itself was neither particularly good nor bad, and honestly, aside from the Churaumi Aquarium and American Village, it was a bit lacking. At the Churaumi Aquarium, you have two and a half hours, but since you need to have a meal there, if you're planning to use a restaurant, it's better to think of your actual viewing time as just one hour. I had planned to shop at American Village, but since time was tight, I think it's best to research the stores you want to visit beforehand.

コロナ禍の中でしたが３０名程の参加者がいました。ツアー自体は可もなく不可もなくといった内容で美ら海水族館とアメリカンヴィレッジ以外は正直…でした。美ら海水族館は２時間半時間がありますが、ここで食事を取る必要があるので、レストラン利用をする方は観覧時間は実質１時間だと考えていた方が良いです。アメリカンヴィレッジでの買い物を予定していたのですが、時間がタイトなので予め目的の店を調べてから行くべきだと思いました。

I was nervous about my first solo trip to Okinawa, but both the guide and the driver were very friendly, which made me feel at ease. I was able to visit many major tourist spots, making it a meaningful day.

初めての沖縄1人旅で緊張しましたが、ガイドさんも運転手さんもとってもフレンドリーで安心しました。主要な観光地をどんどん周ることができて有意義な1日でした。

I felt that it took a long time to reach the main aquarium. I think the time spent at Kouri Island and Pineapple Park could be cut in half. I would like to have more time at the aquarium instead. It's about a 15-minute walk from the parking lot, and the return trip is particularly uphill, so we need to allocate our time accordingly. I hope you can consider this, especially with an increasing number of elderly participants.

メインの水族館にたどり着くまでが長いと感じました。古宇利島やパイナップルパークの滞在時間は半分に削っても十分だと思います。その分水族館での滞在時間を延ばしていただきたい。駐車場から徒歩で15分程、帰りは特に上り坂なのでそれなりの余裕をもって時間配分をしなければならず、御年配の参加者も増える中ご配慮いただければと思いました。

I wanted to see Manza Beach in the bright morning, so I chose this place. At the pineapple farm, there were moving dinosaurs, which was surprisingly enjoyable. On Kouri Island, sandwiches were distributed, and since I was hungry, I enjoyed them very much. Churaumi Aquarium, by the way, has the parking lot at the highest point, and the slopes are wide, so I got tired from walking. I think the COVID-19 prevention measures were thorough.

万座毛を明るい午前中に見たくて、こちらを選びました。パイナップル農園では、動く恐竜が 居て意外に楽しめました。古宇利島でサンドイッチが配れて、空きっ腹でしたから、美味しくいただきました。美ら海は、とにかく、駐車場が一番高い場所にあり、坂道で広いので歩き疲れました。コロナ予防対策は万全だったと思います。

Despite gathering and departing early in the morning, we arrived at the first site, Sefa Utaki, nearly 30 minutes before it opened. Moreover, we were left outside in the cold wind after getting off the bus. I really questioned why we had to gather so early in the morning. The bus seats were also narrower than those on another bus tour we used the day before, making it feel quite uncomfortable.

朝早く集合・出発したにもかかわらず、最初の斎場御嶽に着いたのは開園の３０分近く前。
しかもバスも下ろされ寒い風吹くなか外に放置。
だったらなぜ朝早く集合しなきゃいけなかったのか本当に疑問でした。
バスの座席も、前日に利用したほかのバスツアーより足元も狭くあまり快適という感じではなかったです。

Saijō Gushikawa felt majestic as a sacred place, and it made me feel more focused. Thanks to the guide's thorough explanations during the Gangala Valley tour, I gained a deeper understanding of Okinawa's history. In particular, the stories about the Port of Nakagawa people and the limestone caves were very interesting. There were also many photogenic spots, such as the limestone cave café and the Gajumaru tree, which kept me entertained. I'm grateful for the wonderful time I had!

斎場御嶽は聖地として荘厳な雰囲気を感じ身が引き締まりました。ガンガラーの谷ツアーではガイドさんの丁寧な案内のおかげで沖縄の歴史が深まりました。特に、港川人と鍾乳洞にまつわるお話は非常に興味深いものでした。鍾乳洞カフェやガジュマルの木など写真映えするスポットも多く見ていて飽きません。良い時間を過ごせて感謝です！
