All Reviews for Hop On Hop Off Bus

I learned a lot from your recommendations on the main famous spots in Osaka. Next, I want to visit during a refreshing season. Thank you! ✨

大阪の主な有名どころを教えていただき、勉強になりました
次は 爽やかな季節に乗りたいですね～ありがとうございます✨

It was hot since it was summer, but I enjoyed it. Since the time isn't long, it's perfect for sightseeing during a little free time or as a break after walking a lot.

夏だったので暑かったのですが楽しめました。時間も長くないので、少しの空き時間やたくさん歩いたあとの休憩を兼ねた観光にぴったりです。

It was a cold time at the beginning of the year, but it felt great to look up at the blue sky and the tall buildings of the city from the open-top. I was able to see several tourist spots, including Osaka Castle, with a detailed guide from the car window, making for an efficient sightseeing experience.

年始の寒い時期でしたが、オープントップで青空と市街地の高いビルを下から眺められて気持ち良かったです。大阪城などいくつかの観光スポットを、詳しいガイド付きで車窓から見ることができ、効率よく観光できました。

The road was empty, the view was great, and this vehicle had the road all to itself. To be honest, if you keep looking up, the traffic on the road doesn't matter.

道路がガラガラで、眺めが良く、この車両が道路を独り占めでした。
と言うか、上ばかり見てたら、道路の混雑は関係ないですね。

As a person from Osaka, I enjoyed the view of Midosuji from the top of the double-decker bus, which was different from the usual scenery. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and it was a great opportunity to learn things I didn't know before. It was rush hour, so it took longer than planned, but thanks to that, I was able to enjoy the view from the window at a leisurely pace. The window frame made it surprisingly difficult to take photos.

I think if I had been in the front row, I could have enjoyed the view more directly, but if you're participating alone, you might end up in the back row. Since I was in the back, the view in front was hard to see, but the advantage was that the guide spoke from the back, making it easy to hear the explanations.

There are blankets available for rent, and since we weren't moving fast due to the traffic, it wasn't too cold. There is a map for the meeting place, but it's quite confusing. It was at number 7 of the JR Highway Bus Terminal, but there was no indication of which number it was, so it seemed like many other participants were also confused.

I think it would be helpful if the map clearly indicated that it is bus stop number 7, so future participants won't get lost.

大阪人ですが、2階建てバスの上から見る御堂筋の景色は普段の景色とはまた違い楽しめました。ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすく、知らなかったことも知るいい機会となりました。ちょうど渋滞の時間帯で予定より時間はかかりましたが、そのおかげでゆっくり車窓を楽しめました。窓枠があるので意外に写真は撮りにくかったです。
最前列だともっと正面から景色を楽しめたと思いますが、1人参加の場合は最後方席になるのかもしれません。後ろ席だったので、正面の景色は見づらかったですが、ガイドさんが後方席で話されるので説明は聞きやすかったのが利点です。
ブランケットは貸出しがありますし、渋滞でスピードが出ていないので、そんなに寒くはなかったです。
集合場所の地図がありますが、かなりわかりにくいです。
JR高速バスターミナルの７番でしたが、何番との記載がないので他の参加者の方も迷われた方が多かったように見受けられました。
集合場所の地図には是非７番乗り場と記載して頂けるとこれから参加される方は迷わないと思います。

It was a bit wintery and cold, but the weather was great and it was the best! I really didn't mind the cold at all. Thank you very much, the cost performance was excellent too!

ちょっと冬らしく寒かったけど天気良くて最高でした♪ ほんとに寒さは全く気にならないでした^_^
ありがとうございました、コスパも良すぎですねー♪

I only saw the street trees on Midosuji... Once I got on the highway, it was too fast to see anything. I thought I could see the Nakano Island art, but I couldn't. I also couldn't hear the microphone clearly, so I didn't understand anything. It wasn't worth the 2000 yen.

御堂筋街路樹見ただけ…高速乗ったら速すぎて見れないし｡中之島アートとか見られる思ったのに。マイクの声も聞きにくくてわからんし。2000円の価値なしでした。

I rode the illumination for the second time! In early December, it wasn't too cold, and they provided hand warmers and blankets, which was very thoughtful. I enjoyed the experience like an attraction, passing by the Hanshin Expressway signs that I usually don't get to see.

2度目のイルミネーション時乗車しました！
12月初旬はさほど寒くなく
カイロもくださいますしブランケットもありと至れり尽くせりです。
日頃見る事の出来ない阪神高速の看板が目の前を通過などアトラクション気分で楽しめました。

I thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful illumination. The guide's explanations were very enjoyable. They prepared a Cairo and a lap blanket, so I was able to enjoy it warmly.

素敵なイルミネーションを満喫しました。
ガイドさんの説明がとても楽しかったです。
カイロと膝掛けを準備してくださったので、暖かく楽しめました。

It was a sightseeing route that only offered views from the train window, but there were many tourist attractions, and the explanations were easy to understand. The guide kept explaining without any dull moments, so the hour flew by. I wanted to hear more stories. It was a very enjoyable tour. Thank you very much.

車窓だけの観光ルートだったけど、観光名所が多く説明が聞き取りやすかった。
飽きる事なくガイドさんが説明をしてくれるので、1時間があっという間に終わってしまいました。
まだまだ話を聞きたかったです。
とても楽しいツアーでした。
ありがとうございました。

The north wind was a bit chilly, but I was comfortable with the blanket and hand warmer provided. Running while looking up at the tall buildings was refreshing. The guide also explained the famous landmarks, and there were places I learned about for the first time. I can't believe an hour went by so quickly; I had a great time.

北風が少し冷たく吹いていましたが、膝掛けとカイロ頂けて快適でした。高いビル群を下から見上げながら走る体験は爽快でした。名所の解説もガイドさんにして頂きましたし、初めて知った場所もありました。1時間なんて信じられないくらいあっという間で、とても楽しくすごせました。

I live in Osaka, so the scenery was familiar to me, but since it was a guided tour, I had some unexpected discoveries and it was fun. The illuminations seen from the highway were amazing!

私は大阪在住で見慣れた景色でしたが、ガイド付きツアーだったので、意外な発見があり楽しかった。
高速道路から見たイルミネーションは最高！

It was a tour in terrible rain, but thanks to the wonderful announcements from the tour guide, I was able to enjoy the lovely rainy Midosuji.

ひどい雨の中のツアーでしたが、添乗員さんの素晴らしいアナウンスで、すてきな雨の御堂筋を楽しむことができましたー。

If the frame at the top of the bus's front window had been transparent, the visibility would have been much better. I apologize for the inconvenience as I couldn't remember the seat number for three passengers. It would be appreciated if we could receive something with the seat number written down for the elderly.

バスのフロントウィンドウ上部の枠が透明なら視界がもっと良かったです。
乗車予約が3名で席番号を覚えれなくご迷惑をおかけしました。座席番号を書いたものをいただけたら年寄りにはありがたいです。

It was not cold after the rain, and the guide's explanations were enjoyable. Above all, the view from the double-decker bus was amazing. I had so much fun that I would love to participate again.

雨上がりで寒くなくてガイドさんの説明も楽しくて、何より2階建バスからの景色が最高でした。また参加したいと思う位楽しかったです。

This is my third year revisiting.
It feels like a gentle roller coaster.
The view overlooking the streets of Midosuji is breathtaking.
The bus guide provides interesting information about the buildings, which is quite enjoyable.
Even though I live in Osaka, I'm amazed by how much I don't know.
The highway takes you around for about one and a half laps.
It's full of thrills.

リピって3年目です。
ゆるやかなジェットコースターのようなかんじ。
御堂筋の街並みを見下ろすのは絶景です。
バスガイドさんが建物を案内してくれます、これがまた面白い。
大阪に住んでいるのに知らないことだらけでたまげます。
高速道路は1周半ほどしてくれます。
スリル満点です。

I participated in the 17:10 course, and the sky was a night color with no rain, making for a comfortable time. Since it's an open double-decker bus, you can enjoy the illuminations from a panoramic and unique angle that you absolutely can't see from the ground or a regular car. The guide kindly pointed out the viewing spots, and depending on the traffic conditions, you can leisurely enjoy the light-up while chatting. We also passed by hotels, shops, and cafes decorated for Christmas, which makes me want to check it out again next time. Thank you for the wonderful tour!

17:10のコースに参加しましたが
空は夜色で雨もなく快適な時間でした。
オープンの二階建てバスなので
徒歩や乗用車からは絶対見る事が出来ないパノラマかつ角度からイルミネーションを満喫出来ます。ガイドさんが丁寧に観覧スポットを教えてくださり、道路の混み具合にもよりますが、ゆっくりライトアップをお喋りしながら過ごせます。クリスマスのデコレーションが施されているホテルやショップ、カフェなども通りますのでまた次回覗いて見たくなりました。
素敵なツアーをありがとうございました

Since I live in the countryside, I traveled to Osaka. I only visited tourist spots, but I rode the bus around the city to see the beautiful illuminations and even got on the highway for a bit... It was a valuable experience! I had a great time! The experience lasted only an hour, so it was easy to fit into my travel plans. 😊

地方に住んでいるため、旅行でくる大阪。
観光地しか行かなかったので、バスで街を走って綺麗なイルミネーションを見て高速にも少し乗って....
貴重な体験でした！
楽しかったです！
体験時間も1時間なので、旅行のプランに入れやすかったです(^^)

This time, the temperature was just right, not too cold. Living in Osaka, I was satisfied with the little sightseeing I could do. I want to go again. The illumination was wonderful.

今回
は、寒くもなく丁度良い気温でした。大阪に住んでいて、プチプチ観光が出来満足しました。又、行きたいと思っています。素晴らしいイルミネーションでした。

The open deck bus is the best.
It was refreshing and liberating, and I felt fantastic.
I was able to fully enjoy the streets of Osaka.
I want to ride it again.

オープンデッキバスは最高です
爽快感　開放感　とても気分が絶好調でした
大阪の街並みを十分に満喫できました
また乗りたいです

The illumination on Midosuji and the buildings at night make you exclaim "Wow!" It's a bit cold on the way back as we took the highway, but it was an experience that you don't usually get. They also lend you blankets.

御堂筋のイルミネーション、夜のビル、思わずワーッと言う声がでます。帰りは高速に乗り、少し寒いですが普段できない経験でした。ひざ掛けも貸してもらえます。

A family trip to Osaka. Blessed with good weather, we enjoyed a quick tour of Osaka under the clear blue sky while admiring the buildings. The guide's stories were enjoyable, and before we knew it, an hour had passed, making for a delightful experience.

大阪での家族旅行。
天候にも恵まれ、快晴の青空のもと、ビルを眺めなながら大阪をサクッと見学。
ガイドさんのお話も楽しく、あっという間に1時間が過ぎ、楽しい時間を過ごしました。

Even though it was November, it was warm, so I didn't need much in terms of cold weather gear. The view from the double-decker bus was enjoyable, as I could see things I don't usually see and the perspective was different. I also learned for the first time that the colors of the illuminations on Midosuji are different. The Hanshin Expressway was congested, and I think the driver had a tough time, but I was able to take my time enjoying the scenery and got some great photos. I want to ride again!

11月なのに暖かく寒さ対策は、そんなに必要なかったです
２階建てバスから見る景色は普段見れない物が見えたり見方も違うので楽しかったし、御堂筋のイルミネーションの色が違う事も初めて知りました。
阪神高速、混んでて運転手さんは大変だったと思いますが、ゆっくりと景色見れたし写真もバッチリ撮れて良かったです。
又、乗りたい！

On the last day of the three-day weekend in October, I participated with my cousin from Osaka.

We thoroughly enjoyed an hour of bus sightseeing while listening to the guide's detailed and entertaining announcements, starting from the beautiful evening weather.

The two-story open-deck sightseeing bus offered a view where the traffic lights on the main road were just above our seats! That day, the clear sky and skyscrapers flowed by from the front, sides, and even above us, creating a refreshing experience! Additionally, while we moved dynamically on the highway, we could comfortably sit and admire many famous sights throughout the tour.

Since I had never properly toured Osaka, I was thrilled to see so many landmarks. The guide's live commentary covered a wide range of topics in detail, making it enjoyable and never boring until the end.

The first two rows of seats were empty, and we were in the third row, which allowed us to have a clear view of the front, sides, and above without any obstructions.

We departed from Osaka Station and the highway bus terminal, touring the major attractions in the south, and returned to Osaka Station via the highway. The speed increased, and since the road was elevated, we enjoyed an even higher vantage point. It was just around dusk, and the buildings were lit up, creating a beautiful scene.

I was told that when the days get shorter, we can enjoy the illuminated scenery at that time. (This was mentioned during the farewell greetings after the tour by the driver and guide.) That sounds like it would be fun as well, making me want to ride again during that season. It was a truly memorable activity filled with a live experience.

My cousin from Osaka also seemed very satisfied with this long-awaited hometown tour.

Thank you to the driver and guide for being cheerful from before we boarded until the farewell. Thanks to Kintetsu Bus for organizing this, and a big thank you to Veltra for allowing us to easily book online!

10月の3連休最終日に、大阪出身の従姉と参加。
天気も良い夕暮れ前からの１時間を、ガイドさんのそれは詳しく楽しいアナウンスに耳を傾けつつ、バス観光を存分に楽しみました。

2階建オープンデッキの周遊バス観光とは…
大通りの信号機が、座席からスレスレ上に見える眺望！　
当日は、雲の無い空と高層ビルが、前・横の窓から、また、天井の無い上方から、サーッと流れていく爽快さ！
また、高速道路に乗ったりするダイナミックな移動をしつつも、終始、座席に座ったまま多くの名所を眺めて巡るという究極の楽チン観光！

大阪をきちんと観光したことが無かったので、名所の目白押しは嬉しかったです。
ガイドさんのライブ解説も話題が多岐に渡って詳しく、それでいて楽しい、最後まで聞き飽きない内容でした。

前から２列の座席は空席で、3列目が私たちだったので、前方も横も、天井無しの上方もすっきり見渡せて良い眺めでした。

大阪駅・高速バスターミナルを出発前して、南の主要な観光名所を巡り、大阪駅への帰りは高速道路に乗ります。スピードは早くなるし、道路自体が高架なので、一般道から更に高い視点の眺めを楽しむことができました。
この頃はちょうど夕暮れ時で、ビルにも灯りが点いて綺麗な景色でした。

日暮れが早くなったら、その時はライトアップされた風景を楽しめるとのこと。(観光終了し降車後のご挨拶時、運転手さん・ガイドさん談)
それはそれでまた楽しそう…ということで、またその時期にも乗りたくなるくらい、一期一会なライブ感満載のアクティビティでした。

大阪出身の従姉も、久しぶりの出身地観光で、大満足な内容だったようです。

運転手さん、ガイドさん、バスに乗る前からお別れの時まで、にこやかで、ありがとうございました。主催の近鉄バスさんもありがとう。そして、ネットでぷちっと申込させてくださったベルトラさん、どうもありがとう！！！

In the morning, we took this route, and in the afternoon, we joined a different route. The weather was nice, so it was fantastic to tour the city on an open-deck bus. It was an hour that flew by while listening to the guide's enjoyable explanations about interesting districts. I highly recommend it.

午前中はこのルート、午後は別ルートで参加。天気が良かったので、オープンデッキバスで市内を回るのは最高でした。興味深い地区をガイドさんの楽しい説明を聞きながら、あっという間の1時間でした。お勧めです。

I have been to Osaka several times, and traveling by bus made it easy to understand the geography. The guide's explanations were very enjoyable, the weather was great, and it was the best experience. In the morning, we also took a different route.

何度か大阪に行っていますが、バスで回ることで地理的にも分かりやすかったです。ガイドさんの説明もとても楽しく、天気も良くて、最高でした。午前中も違うルートで回ってきました。

I've been there many times, but I often moved around by subway and didn't really understand the connections between the stations. The roads were also one-way with four lanes, and I found myself nodding along to the guide's explanations.

As it was getting to the time when the city lights were coming on, it was nice to experience the different atmosphere at the beginning and the end of the ride. However, I regretted not dressing warmer since the wind was quite cold for the season.

何度も行ったことはあるけど、地下鉄での移動が多く駅と駅のつながりがよくわかっていなかったのです。道路も4車線の一方通行だったこととか、ガイドさんの話にいちいちうなづきながらでした。
だんだん街の灯りが灯る時間だったので、乗り始めと終わる頃で違う街の感じも良かったです。
ただ、季節的に風が冷たくてもっと防寒対策をしていったら良かったと後悔しました。

I used the service with foreign guests. They were very happy to have a guide who spoke their native language. The best part was the wonderful weather!!!

外国の方と利用させてもらいました。
母国語でのガイド対応サービスがあり、とても喜んでもらえました。
天気に恵まれたことが最高でした！！！

The view of the building was impressive and magnificent against the sky. The breeze was pleasant and enjoyable. It was as fun as a ride at an amusement park! ☺️

ビルの景観が、空と共に迫力があり最高でした。
風が心地よく楽しかったです。
遊園地の乗り物みたい面白ろかったです☺️

It was the best sightseeing experience to tour around Osaka city on a double-decker open-top bus. It was my first time sightseeing in Osaka, and I had hardly seen it in person before, but this course took us around the major tourist spots in the city in a short time (60 minutes). The bus guide's explanations were very easy to understand. I highly recommend this sightseeing experience to anyone!

大阪市内観光を２階建オープンデッキバスでまわる最高の観光でした。
大阪観光は初めてで、ほとんど生で見たことがなかったけど、大阪市内の主要観光スポットを短時間（６０分）で周っていくコース。バスガイドの案内もとてもわかりやすかった。
どなたにもおすすめできる観光です！
