大阪市内観光バス 2階建オープンデッキバスで巡る名所の数々!ダイナミックな景観と季節の風を感じながら360度パノラマ観光!<大阪駅発>

I've never seen Osaka like this before! 今まで見た事がない大阪!

Reviewed by: 牧みゆき

The temperature had turned from the previous day's chill to a warm and refreshing tour day. I participated with my daughter on a cute red bus. Perhaps because it was a weekday, there were only two groups, so I felt a bit sorry for Kintetsu, but it was more comfortable as it felt like a private tour. I have lived in Osaka for about 25 years, so I was familiar with the routes around Umeda and Namba, but the view from the open-roof bus revealed sights I had never seen before, and I was immediately moved after we set off. I was excited to see the buildings around Umeda Station from a high vantage point, exclaiming, "Wow!"

Even though I thought, "I always pass through here," the scenery was different from a higher perspective. As we entered Midosuji, the ginkgo trees lined the street. Instead of looking up at the trunks, I noticed the green leaves of the ginkgo. The traffic lights and signposts seemed within reach! It was so much fun! The guide shared many things I didn’t know, even after living in Osaka for years, and I discovered, "Wow! I didn’t know this was here!"

Eventually, we looked up at Abeno Harukas from close by and returned to our starting point in Umeda. I joined the tour thinking it would feel nice to ride a bus from such a high place, but it exceeded my expectations!

前日の気温の低さから一転、暖かい爽やかなツアー日和可愛い赤いバスに乗って娘と2人参加しました。平日のせいか、2組の参加で近鉄さんには申し訳ないのですが貸切状態でより快適でした大阪には25年程住んでおり梅田、難波など通りなれたコースではありましたが、屋根が空いたバスからの景色は今まで見た事のない景色が広がり、出発してからすぐ感動〜✨高い所から見上げる梅田駅周辺のビル街に「凄~い!」と興奮!
ここいつも通ってるなぁ、と思いながらも目に入る景色は
高い視線からでいつもと違う~
御堂筋に入ると銀杏並木。見上げなくても目に入るのは幹
ではなく銀杏の緑の葉。信号機や案内標識は手を伸ばせば届きそうな所に!も〜!も~!楽しい〜ガイドさんの案内は長年大阪に住んでいても知らない事をたくさん教えて貰えて「え!こんな所にこんなのがあったんだー!」と発見出来る事も
やがてあべのハルカスを近くで見上げて出発地点の梅田に戻ります。
あんな高い所に座って走るバスは気持ち良いだろうな~というキッカケで参加しましたが期待以上のツアーでした!

I hope you enjoyed the view from the open bus and experienced the changing seasons.

Double Decker Bus Tour of Osaka's Best Sights

Excellent

Reviewed by: Wilson

My wife and i joined this tour and we were absolutely delighted with our decision. This bus tour took us around osakas main tourist attractions including tennoji, umeda, namba, nipponbashi and Dotombori. The weather was nice and the feeling of the breeze from the roof open deck was amazing. We were greeted with a nice lady who accepted our veltra voucher and lead us up to the rooftop reserved seats. She then gave us an ipod recorder to use as english translation. We learnt many things about the city and its history. The bus was in excellent condition as new and the whole journey took about an hour and a half. We would definitely come again!

Comfortable bus tour 快適バスツアー

Reviewed by: りゅうちゃん

On April 6th, my family participated in a sightseeing bus tour in Osaka. I was worried about the weather, but we were blessed with clear skies that day. Most participants gathered on time, and we departed as scheduled. I think there was about a 50/50 mix of Japanese and foreign tourists. Foreign participants were given smartphones with a guide function, while Japanese participants received explanations from the guide. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I was able to reaffirm the history and culture of Osaka.

Although I have visited Osaka many times, I usually travel by subway or train, so the bus tour felt refreshing and was a great way to get a sense of the area. I could feel the atmosphere of the city and its lively nature. The tour bus was clean, the driving was careful, and being a double-decker bus added to the sense of openness. My family and I wondered how a tour would be on a rainy day. In any case, the meeting place was easy to find, making it a "comfortable!" tour.

4月6日、大阪市内観光バスツアーに家族で参加しました。天候を心配したのですが、当日は
晴天に恵まれました。集合の時間に参加者ほとんどが揃って定時の出発となりました。
日本人の方と外国人観光客の方が半分くらいの割合だったと思います。
外国人の方にはガイド機能付きのスマホが渡され、日本人に対してはガイドさんの説明という

Thank you for riding with OSAKA SKY VISTA. We are also delighted to receive your kind comments. We hope you enjoyed the views and breeze unique to our open-top double-decker bus. Unfortunately, during rainy weather, we must operate with the roof closed (we provide raincoats for light rain). In addition to the Minami course, we also have the Kita course, which allows you to enjoy a different side of Osaka, including Osaka Castle. We look forward to welcoming you again. Thank you very much.

このたびは、OSAKA SKY VISTAにご乗車いただきありがとうございます。
また、ありがたいコメントもいただきうれしく思います。
開放感のある2階建てオープンデッキバスならでわの景色や風を感じていただけたと思います。
雨天時は、残念ながら屋根を閉めての運行としております。(小雨は合羽などをおくばりします)
みなみコース以外に、きたコースもあり大阪城など違う大阪を堪能していただけると思いますのでまた是非ご乗車ください。
心よりお待ちしております。
ありがとうございました。

Double-decker open-top bus tour of Osaka City with my grandchild. 孫と巡る大阪市内観光2階建オープンデッキバス

Reviewed by: 森谷和代

At the end of March, I went to Osaka with my grandson, who had just graduated from elementary school. Until now, we had often participated in day trips together, but this time we discussed everything, including transportation arrangements, hotel, and itinerary, together, incorporating each other's wishes while also considering my health. The main event this time was undoubtedly the city tour of Osaka by open-deck bus, scheduled for the second day. My grandson, who loves vehicles, was thrilled and looking forward to it.

On the much-anticipated day, being unfamiliar with the area, we left the hotel early and arrived at the meeting place an hour ahead of time. I felt relieved that we could arrive early rather than wandering around and getting lost in an unfamiliar place. The bus departed as scheduled at 10:30 AM on the "Namba Route." We had the front seats, and the view from the double-decker bus was magnificent, with the refreshing morning breeze flowing through the bus.

Since it was my grandson's first time in Osaka, he was very excited, looking to the right and left as the guide explained things, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Since we usually live separately, it felt like a long time since I had seen him so happy and enjoying himself, and I was truly glad we came together.

Along the way, I couldn't help but take a picture of the cherry blossoms, which were about 30-40% in bloom. After departing from Umeda and passing through Midosuji, the 60-minute "Namba Route" tour ended in no time while we were excitedly sightseeing in Osaka. My grandson seemed to want to stay on the bus a little longer, but he was still very happy and satisfied.

3月末、小学校を卒業した 男の子の孫を連れて 大阪に出かけました。
今まで 日帰りツアーには 二人でよく参加していたのですが 今回は交通の手配から ホテル 日程など 全て孫と二人で話し合い お互いの希望を入れつつ 私の体調も考えた上で スケジュールを組みました。そして今回のメインイベントは 何と言っても 二日目に予定していた オープンデッキバスによる 大阪市内観光です。乗り物の大好きな孫は 大喜びで とても楽しみにしていました。そして 待ちに待った当日、地理に疎い私たちは 早めにホテルを出て 一時間も前に 集合場所に着いてしまいました。慣れない土地でうろうろと迷子になるよりは 早めに着くことが出来 ほっと一安心でした。
バスは予定通り10時30分 「なんばルート」が 出発しました。座席は一番前の席で 2階建てバスからの眺めは とても雄大で 朝のすがすがしい風が バスの中を通りぬけて行きました。
大阪が初めての孫は ガイドさんの説明に 右を見たり左側を見上げたりと とても興奮して 目が輝いていました。普段は別々に暮らしていますので このように 楽しそうに、嬉しそうな顔を見るのは 久々だった様な気がして 一緒に来て良かったと心の底から 嬉しく成りました。
途中3から4分咲きの 桜の花に 思わずシャッターを押してしまいました。
梅田を出発し 御堂筋を通り 大阪市内を興奮しながら観光している間に 60分の「なんばルート」は あっという間に終わってしまいました。
孫はもう少しバスに乗っていたかった様ですが それでも大喜びで 満足そうでした。

The view is amazing. 最高な眺め

Reviewed by: くみこ

The view from the double-decker bus was amazing. It was very good to efficiently see the necessary places along the southern route in Osaka and hear various explanations that accompanied it. Next time, I would like to go to the northern route.

2階建てバスからの眺めは最高でした。

Double Decker Bus Tour of Osaka's Best Sights

Osaka Double Decker Bus Tour with English Commentary, South Course, ie Namba area, NOT a Hop On Hop Off Tour

Reviewed by: Hisham

Our trip was Osaka was a short one for our family of Seven and we did not really have all the time to visit all the tourist spots and areas. Since we were staying in the Namba area, we have decided to optimise our time within the Namba area and hence a conscious decision was made to take this Double Decker Bus Tour, and especially the South Course.

This one hour tour was with Japanese commentary by a friendly Japanese Tourist Guide. However non-Japanese speaking customers were given an iPod like devise and alternative English commentary was provided. This was a non Hop On Hop Off Tour hence true to the Japanese Punctuality Traditions, the tour started and ended right on time.

Seats on the Upper deck were also pre-determined hence there were no hustling and bustling amongst customers to get the best seats on the bus. The blankets provided by the tour provider were also convenient especially when the temperature was only around 8 degrees Centigrade at the time of our tour.

Thank you for having you take a OSAKA SKY VISTA the other day.

In addition, all the staff wait for the ride of "the north route"


Thank you.

御堂筋イルミネーションバス 光の饗宴を満喫 OSAKA SKY VISTA オープンデッキバス 事前予約(2025/11/1~12/31)<大阪駅発着>

Beyond expectations. 予想以上

Reviewed by: もんさん

I thought it would just be about seeing the illuminations, but it was better than I expected. The comfort of the open-deck bus, the highway drive, and the guide's announcements made the 45 minutes fly by. There were also items like blankets and knee covers, which helped with the cold. I would like to recommend this to acquaintances.

イルミネーションを見るだけと思っていたけど、予想以上によかったです。オープンデッキバスの快適さ、高速道路ドライブ、ガイドさんのアナウンスなどがあってあっという間の45分間でした。カイロやひざ掛けなどもあり、寒さも何とかなりました。知人に薦めたいと思いました。
