All Reviews for Bus Tours

It was a comfortable tour. I think the price is quite reasonable. I wondered if it would be better to choose either Manzamo or Kouri Island and increase the stay time a little at each. Unfortunately, when crossing the bridge to Kouri Island, many people closed the window curtains (because the sun was too bright), so I couldn't see the beautiful ocean. There were foreign visitors both before and after, and we couldn't communicate... I wished the guide had said something like, "Please open the curtains as we cross the bridge."

快適なツアーでした。値段もお安いと思います。　万座毛か、古宇利島、どちらかにして、全ての滞在時間を少しずつ増やした方が良いかなと思いました。残念だったのは、古宇利島の橋を渡る時、窓のカーテンを(太陽が眩しくて)閉めている人が多く、せっかくの海のきれいさが見れませんでした。前後とも外国の方で、言葉も通じず…。ガイドの方が、「橋を渡るのでカーテンを開けてください」みたいな声をかけて欲しかったです。

I chose this tour because it allows me to visit both the Churaumi Aquarium and American Village.

While there is the downside of a limited time frame, I am very satisfied that I could visit many new places in a short amount of time!

We were also blessed with good weather and were able to see the sunset at American Village.

美ら海水族館、アメリカンビレッジ両方行くことができるため、このツアーを選びました。

制限時間に限りがあるデメリットもありますが、短い時間で多くの初めての場所をめぐることができとても満足です！

天気にも恵まれ、アメリカンビレッジで夕陽が沈む瞬間を見ることもできました。

All parts of the tour were great, but thanks to our guide Keiko on March 20, 2025, it became the best trip. She provided kind and detailed explanations, making it a valuable and happy day. I am grateful.

ツアー全て良かった中、2025.3.20ガイドケイコさんのおかげで、最高な旅となりました。優しく丁寧な説明などして頂き、価値が有り、幸せな一日を過ごせました。感謝致します。

I was very satisfied with how efficiently I could visit various tourist spots! I was able to see a beautiful sunset at American Village. 150 minutes at the aquarium might not be enough.

色んな観光地を効率よく回れて大満足でした！
ちょうどアメリカンビレッジで美しい夕日を見ることができました。
水族館は150分だと足りないかも。

On my first trip to Okinawa, I was torn between renting a car and joining a bus tour, but choosing the bus tour was the right decision. It took us to famous tourist spots in Okinawa, and the bus guide's stories were enjoyable. The time spent at each location was a bit short, but we were able to visit many places, which was great. If I had rented a car, someone would have had to drive, and we wouldn't have been able to relax as much, but on the bus, I could take a nap if I got tired and enjoy a more leisurely experience.

初めての沖縄で、レンタカーと迷いましたが、バスツアーをお願いして、正解でした。
沖縄の有名な観光地に連れて行ってくれるし、バスガイドさんのお話も楽しかったです。
1カ所ずつの時間は短めだけど、その分沢山の場所を回れたので、良かったです。
レンタカーだと誰かが運転して、ゆっくりできないですが、バスなら疲れたら眠ったりもできて、ゆったりと過ごせました。

Even though the weather wasn't very good, it was an enjoyable course, and the guide's explanations were very easy to understand, making it much more educational than exploring on our own! If I had to be picky, I would have preferred a tour of American Village, but since we signed up at the last minute, we ended up at Pineapple Park! However, that was fun in its own way!

天気があまり良くなくても楽しめるコースで、ガイドさんの説明がとてもわかりやすくて自分たちだけで回るよりも勉強になることが多かったです！欲を言えばアメリカンビレッジのツアーがよかったんですけど、私たちは直前に申し込んだため、パイナップルパークの方になりました！でもそれはそれで楽しかったです！

It was painful to hear the guide continuously express resentment about the good parts of Okinawa being taken away due to the barbed wire around the U.S. military base.

It was disappointing that the main aquarium was last on the itinerary, and perhaps due to traffic, we lost time. I wish we could have visited the aquarium first and saved the other souvenir shops for later.

ガイドの人が　米軍基地のことを　鉄条網がある　沖縄のいいところが取られてると
恨み節が永遠とつづいたのが　苦痛でした。　

メインの水族館が最後になり　渋滞のせいか時間が削られたの残念でした
水族館を先にいって　他の土産さんは　後回しを望みます。　

At Okinawa World, I watched an Eisa dance show and a show featuring the habu snake and mongoose. The habu and mongoose show included a swimming competition between the mongoose and the sea snake, which was conducted from an animal welfare perspective. We also visited the limestone caves, so it felt like there wasn't enough time.

沖縄ワールドではエイサーのショーとハブとマングースのショーを見ました。ハブとマングースのショーは、動物愛護の点からマングースとウミヘビとの水泳対決をやってました。鍾乳洞も行ったので時間が足りない感じでした。

I thoroughly enjoyed the Churaumi Aquarium for two and a half hours. I also had squid ink pasta at a café with a view of the large tank with whale sharks. I recommend adding lobster to the optional steak dinner.

美ら海水族館は２時間半と堪能できました。ジンベイサメのいる大水槽が見えるカフェでイカスミパスタも食べました。オプションのステーキディナーはオプションでロブスターをつけるのがおすすめです。

I'm busy going around to various places. The aquarium is the busiest time, so I recommend the less crowded Tropical Dream Center. It took a lot of time because I went through hotels in Chatan and Onna Village on the way back.

色々まわるので忙しい。
水族館は一番混雑する時間なので空いてる熱帯ドリームセンターがおすすめ。
帰りに北谷と恩納村のホテルを経由したので凄く時間がかかった。

At the Valley of Gangala, the guide's explanations were very interesting, and I'm glad I participated. I could envision the lives of people from 20,000 years ago.

ガンガラーの谷ですが、ガイドさんの説明もあり、大変興味深く、参加して良かったです。2万年前の人々の暮らしがめに浮かびました。

I prepared myself for a tough tour that involved walking for 80 minutes straight. The limestone cave, formed from coral, is said to have alkaline and calcium components that do not dissolve human bones. Because of this, the bones of a male from the Port of Nakagawa, dating back tens of thousands of years, were found in a face-down position. During the tour, it felt like being in another world, and it was truly mystical. Additionally, our guide, Mr. Kaneshiro, was very skilled in storytelling, making the 80 minutes fly by. I'm really glad I participated in this tour.

80分歩き続ける大変なツアーなのかと覚悟して参加しました。
珊瑚から出来たアルカリ性とカルシウムの成分の鍾乳洞は、人骨を溶かさないそう。
そのため、何万年前？の港川人の男性がうつ伏せになっている状態の骨がみつかったとの事。ツアー中は、別世界にいるようで、とても神秘的でした。また、ガイドの金城さんのお話も上手で、あっという間の80分間でした。このツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。

The guide, who was knowledgeable about the history and information of Okinawa, shared stories while incorporating songs. I felt like I gained a lot of insights. With a well-balanced schedule, we spent the whole day exploring, and I think this price is a great deal. The driver was also very friendly and accommodating, and I appreciated their help.

沖縄の歴史や情報に詳しいガイドさんが、歌などもまじえつつ、ずっとお話しして下さいました。色々わかって得した気分。程よい時間配分で、丸一日まわって、このお値段はお得だと思います
運転手さんにも、ニコニコと融通をきかせて下さりお世話になりました。

The course with a steak dinner was a meager steak dinner. With 5,000 yen, there are plenty of delicious meat restaurants on International Street.

ステーキディナー付きコース、貧素なステーキディナーでした。5000円あれば国際どうりで肉料理店美味しい店いっぱいある。

The tour included the World Heritage site of Sefa Utaki, considered the highest sacred place of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the Okinawa Natural Monument, Gyokusendo Cave, making it a great deal. Although it's a half-day tour, the fact that they also provide transportation to Naha Airport is a big plus.

琉球王国最高の聖地とされる世界遺産の斎場御嶽と沖縄天然記念物の玉泉洞が見られるお得な内容になっていました。半日ツアーですが那覇空港に送っていただけるのもポイント高いです。

The Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley were great. However, there was very little explanation from the tour guide, which made it difficult to understand during the gathering times. I think it would have been better to have a bit more overall explanation and details about the places we were going to visit.

斎場御嶽　ガンガラーの谷は良かったです。添乗員さんの説明がほとんどなく　集合の時などわかりにくかったです。もう少し全体の説明や　どんな所に行くなど説明があった方が良かったと思います。

The main Churaumi Aquarium was impressive! There were many other highlights as well. Additionally, the tour guide (bus) was attentive and made the experience feel less tiring. If I had to mention something, it took about 4 hours round trip for passenger pickups, which was a bit hard on my back, but considering the cost performance, it might be within an acceptable range.

メインの美ら海水族館には感動！その他見どころも多っかたです。加えて観光ガイド（バス）が丁寧で疲れを感じさせなかった。しいて言えば乗客のピックアップで往復で約4時間要したので腰にきましたが,コスパを思うと許容範囲かも。

I chose this option because I was considering ways to get to the Churaumi Aquarium without renting a car, and it allowed me to visit other spots as well. The bus guide shared a lot of information about Okinawa, making the trip enjoyable!

Since it was a weekday, there weren't many crowds, and my companion and I had plenty of time to explore each spot smoothly. If you have children, it might be a bit hectic and challenging.

While it may be difficult to see everything at the Churaumi Aquarium, it was sufficient to see the main attractions!

美ら海水族館へレンタカー以外で行く方法を検討している中で、他のスポットも回れるこちらを選びました。バスガイドさんが沖縄のことを色々教えてくれて、旅行が楽しいものになりました！
平日だったので、どこもそこまで混雑してなく、大人2人でサクサクと観光できるくらいどのスポットも時間は十分でした。
お子さんがいるともしかしたら慌ただしくて大変かもしれません。
美ら海水族館は、すべてを回るのは難しいかもしれませんが、主要スポットを見るには十分でした！

Had a blast with veltra . The aquarium and the lunch stop near the beautiful beach were the highlights! Guide was very nice too.

I particularly enjoyed the Churaumi Aquarium and American Village. Both places have large grounds, so I think I would have been more tired if I had been driving a rental car. It was nice to spend time on the bus while leisurely enjoying the scenery.

特に美ら海水族館、アメリカンビレッジを満喫できました。どちらの場所も広い敷地なのでレンタカーで運転していたらもっと疲れが出てたと思います。バス内はゆっくり景色を眺めながら過ごせたのが良かったです。

Initially, we planned to rent a car and visit the tourist spots, but it was the right choice to go with a bus tour. I am grateful to the guide for their accurate explanations and to the driver for considering safety while driving.

当初レンタカーを借りて観光地を回ろうとしたが、バスツアーにして正解でした。
ガイドさんの的確な説明、安全を考慮して運転してくださったドライバーさんに感謝しております。

By using the bus tour, I was able to travel from Naha to the Churaumi Aquarium at a cost that was so affordable that I even received change back when considering transportation expenses.

バスツアーを使う事で、那覇から美ら海水族館に行く為の、移動費、交通費を考慮しても、お釣りが来るほどお得に旅行することが出来た。

I visited Okinawa for the first time for spring training camp and sightseeing. Since I didn't have a driver's license, I participated in this tour. The guests were about half Japanese and half international, with many from the Chinese-speaking regions.

It varies case by case, but the atmosphere on the bus was generally calm, with Okinawan folk songs playing throughout, and only a bit of excitement from the children. Additionally, there is a smartphone audio guidance service available. When you activate the browser and pass specific GPS points, explanations automatically play. You can also replay them, and they provide detailed information about local customs and traditions.

It was a bit cloudy, but I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful waters of Okinawa. However, some might feel that the schedule is a bit tight. But that's to be expected—just enjoy it like a school trip!

野球の春季キャンプと観光で初じめて訪れた沖縄。
車の免許を持ってなかったので、こちらのツアーに参加させていただきました。
客は半分が日本の方で半分が海外の方（中華圏の方が多かったです）って感じでした。
ケースバイケースではあるんでしょうけど、バス内の雰囲気は始終沖縄の民謡とか流れてましたが、比較的に静かな方でした。子どもがちょっとはしゃぐくらい。
あとスマホで音声ガイダンスサービスがいただけます。ブラウザーを起動した状態で、GPSで特定ポイントを通過すると自動で説明が流れる感じ。もちろん再再生とかも可能で、地域の風習など、結構細かいところまで説明してくれます。
少し曇ってましたが、沖縄の美ら海をガッツリ堪能できました。
ただ人によっては時間が少しタイトに感じられるかも。ただ仕方ない。修学旅行の気分で楽しむべし。

For us who do not use a car, it was a bus tour that took us to the places we wanted to go. First of all, the driver was truly wonderful, and it was impressive to see him respond with a smile to those who were a bit late, saying, "It's okay!" It had been 15 years since I last visited Okinawa, and I was surprised yet very pleased to see that Manza Beach had been developed and that a huge place called American Village had been built. I'm really glad I participated in this tour.

車を使用しない私たちにとって、行きたいところに連れて行ってくれるバスツアーでした。
まず運転手さんが本当に素晴らしい方で、少し時間に遅れ恐縮している方にも「大丈夫ですよ〜」と、笑顔で対応されているのが印象的でした。
15年ぶりの沖縄でしたが、万座毛が整備されていたり、アメリカンビレッジという巨大な場所が出来ていたりと、驚きつつもとても楽しめて、このツアーに参加して本当によかったです。

I was able to feel the essence of Okinawa at both Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley. At the Gangala Valley, the guide accompanied us and provided thorough explanations, which were very informative. It was a great day as we were able to visit places that are not easy to access individually without wasting time. I also enjoyed listening to the guide's stories.

斎場御嶽もガンガラーの谷も沖縄の原点を感じることができました。
ガンガラーの谷ではガイドさんが付き添って丁寧に説明くださり、とても勉強になりました。
なかなか個人では行きにくいところを無駄なく回ることができ、いい日になりました。ガイドさんのお話も楽しく聞くことができました。

Since it was a tour, there were time limits at each location, which made it a bit busy, but I was prepared for that from the reviews I had read, so it didn't bother me too much. It was a fulfilling experience to visit tourist attractions that are hard to cover on your own in just one day. I was especially happy that my mother, who I took without telling her the destination, was so delighted! She was also impressed by the guide's singing. I would love to use this service again if the opportunity arises.

ツアーなので1箇所ごと時間に制限があったのでやや忙しくはありましたが、元々口コミなどでも見て覚悟はしていたのであまり気になりませんでした。自力では中々回りきれない観光名所に1日で行けるので十分な内容でした。
行き先を教えず連れて行った母が何より喜んでくれたのが嬉しかったです！
ガイドさんの歌にも感激していました。
また機会があればお世話になりたいと思いました。

The Churaumi Aquarium was great, but the Nago Pineapple Park we visited before it was not as good as I expected. We didn't have time for lunch, and while it was suggested to get takeout on Kouri Island, there weren't many options available. The Churaumi Aquarium was also crowded, making it difficult to even grab a snack. I think it would be better to include a place for lunch in the itinerary without the Pineapple Park.

美ら海水族館は良かったが、その前に行った名護パイナップルパークが思っていたより良くなかった。
ランチをする時間とかもなく、古宇利島でテイクアウトするのもいいと言っていたが、テイクアウトできるものがあまりなかった。美ら海水族館も混んでいて軽食さえも難しい状態だった。
パイナップルパーク無しでランチできるところをコースに入れるといいと思った。

Okinawa is a place where you can't get around for sightseeing without a car. Since we are a pair of seniors, we couldn't rent a car for sightseeing, so we participated in this tour. It was great that we could efficiently enjoy the sights. I didn't want to struggle with choosing a restaurant for dinner, so I opted for the dinner option. I was satisfied with the taste and quantity of the food, as well as the chef's performance.

沖縄は車がないと観光で回ることができない所です。シニアの2人連れですので、レンタカーを借りての観光ができず、このツアーに参加しました。
効率良く観光することができて良かったてす。何を食べようかとお店選びに迷うのが嫌だったので、夕食付きにしました。料理の味と量、コックさんのパフォーマンスに満足できました。。
　

The Ocean Expo Park was especially wonderful! The Tropical Tropical Center had many large greenhouses filled with tropical plants! I didn't go into the aquarium, but I was able to see the sea turtle pool and manatees outside. At Manza Beach, the wind was strong, and my sunglasses even flew away, but it was very beautiful. The American Village had authentic tacos that were great. I was able to see a lot in one day, and it wasn't too hectic, so I was very satisfied.

海洋博公園は特に素晴らしかった！熱帯トロピカルセンターもいくつもの大きな温室にトロピカルな植物がたくさん！！水族館には入りませんでしたが外の海亀のプールやマナティーも見ることができました。万座毛では風が強く、サングラスも飛ばされてしまいましたがとても美しい。アメリカンビレッジでは本格的なタコスが良かった。
1日でたくさんみて回ることができ、忙しなくもなく、とても満足でした。

I never knew there were so many mystical places in Okinawa. With only half a day left, I found a tour that offered new discoveries in Okinawa. The tour of the Gangala Valley, in particular, was enjoyable, with a knowledgeable young lady explaining everything in a fun way, much like a Disney tour. Entering the cave with a lamp was also adventurous.

沖縄にこんな神秘的なところがいくつもあるとは、、
半日しか残されていなかったので見つけたツアーでは沖縄新発見
特にガンガラーの谷ツアーでは知識の詰まった若いお姉さんがディズニーツアーのように楽しく説明してくれました。ランプを持ってCAVEに入っていくのもadventurousでした。
