All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

This was my third time participating in the Blue Base Tour, and even though it's the same facility, having different navigators provides new perspectives and explanations. The training scenes I get to see also vary each time depending on the timing, which adds a completely fresh enjoyment! The employees' wealth of knowledge, clarity in their explanations, and friendly hospitality are truly outstanding every time I visit.

Blue Base Tourの参加は今回で3回目でしたが、同じ施設でもナビゲーターの方が違うとまた新たな観点でご説明いただけたり、拝見できる訓練風景も毎回タイミングによって異なるので全く新鮮な楽しさがあります！社員の方々の知識の豊富さやご説明のわかりやすさ、おもてなしの親しみやすさはいつ伺っても本当に素晴らしいです。

I was pleasantly surprised that a current flight attendant provided the explanation. The content was well memorized and easy to understand. I brought my grandchild along, and I think they became interested in the airline, so I am very satisfied with the participation.

説明を現役CAの方が行ってくださったのは良い意味でびっくりでした。
説明内容もよく暗記されていてよく理解できました。　孫を連れて行きましたので航空会社に興味を持ってくれたと思いますので、参加して大変満足です。　

It was a tour in English, so it helped me study English! Since there were many international participants, I had a lot of fun talking with people from overseas! It felt like I had an experience that was not quite Japan, even though I was in Japan.

英語でのツアーなので、英語の勉強になりました！
また海外の方が多いツアーなので、海外の方と話したりとても楽しかったです！
日本なのに日本じゃないような体験をしました

Among the various bus tours available, this one matched my needs perfectly. Since I understand English, I thought it would be fine to participate in this tour. There were six Japanese participants, including myself. I joined alone, but there were also foreign participants who came alone.

The guide was considerate and communicated necessary information in Japanese as well (though they humbly mentioned their Japanese wasn't very good, it was actually fine).

The bus was spacious, equipped with Wi-Fi and charging ports. The stops at service areas along the way were appropriate.

The guide not only announced recommended lunch options but also provided explanations from the perspective of Japanese religious views for the foreign participants. I felt a sense of respect in that. Even if you don't understand English, you can still join, but the English guidance is definitely worth listening to.

色々あるバスツアーの中で自分のニーズにマッチしていたのがこちらでした。
私は英語はわかるので、こちらの参加でも大丈夫かと思い参加しました。
日本人参加者は私を含めて6人でした。私は1人で参加でしたが、外国の方も1人で参加の方もいらっしゃいました。

ガイドさんは気を遣ってくれて日本語でも必要なことは伝えてくれました（本人は上手ではない日本語でと恐縮されていましたが、そんなことはなかったです）。

バスは広く、wi-fiや充電も完備でした。
途中のサービスエリアでの停車も適切でした。

ガイドさんは、おすすめのランチのアナウンスだけではなく、外国人に対して、日本人の宗教観に立った説明をされていました。リスペクトを感じました。
英語がわからなくても参加できますが、英語でのガイドも拝聴の価値ありです。

I’ve lived in Tokyo for 10 years and thought I’d seen it all — but Time Trip Taxi genuinely surprised me. What looks like a regular taxi ride from Tokyo Station to Asakusa transforms into an immersive AR journey through Edo-period Japan. The moment the visuals kick in and modern Tokyo fades into old Edo, you completely forget you’re just sitting in a cab. The virtual guide walks you through the history in such an engaging way that by the time you step out in Asakusa, you see the whole area with completely different eyes. The temple, the streets, the atmosphere — everything hits differently when you actually know the story behind it. The transition between the AR visuals and the real city is seamless and so well done. Honestly one of the most unique and memorable experiences I’ve had in Japan.

It was a fun experience, it would be an amazing experience especially for young children

It was the best season for cherry blossom viewing, so the roads were congested and our departure was delayed, but I was able to enjoy the cherry blossoms from a different perspective on the second floor of the bus. The weather was nice, so the sunlight was quite hot.

お花見ベストシーズンだったので道路が混み合って出発が遅れましたが
バスの2階からいつもとは違う目線で桜を楽しむ事ができました。
お天気が良かったので日差しが暑かったです。

It was raining, and I wore the poncho I brought. I sat in the second row from the front. The rain gradually got stronger, and the view of the cherry blossoms was disappointing. Finally, when we were heading back, the roof came out. I wish we had had a roof from the beginning on a rainy day. The guide's sightseeing explanations were good. It would have been perfect if it had been sunny.

雨が降っていて、持参したポンチョを着て、1番前から２番目に乗りました。雨が段々強くなり桜も視界が悪く残念でした。
後半帰る時にやっと屋根が出て来ました。
雨の日は最初から屋根有りでお願いしたかったです。
ガイドさんの観光説明は良かったです。
晴れていたら最高でした。

I rode an open bus for the first time. The view of the cherry blossoms from up high was great. The view from the open bus is the best.

初めてオープンバスに乗りました。
高いところから見る桜良かったです。
オープンバスの眺めは最高です。

We took this time travel taxi from Tokyo station to Ueno station and it was so much fun, very informative and allowed us to learn about the Edo period in Japan and the taxi itself was very comfortable and smooth.

I came here for the first time.
I've been looking forward to visiting this facility for a long time.
I was excited from the moment I got the locker key to store my luggage!
While looking around the facility and listening to the explanations, they kindly answered any questions I had.
After the tour ended, we talked a lot about our love for airplanes and ANA.

初めて来ました。
ずっと訪ねてみたかった施設なので楽しみにしておりました。
荷物を預けるロッカーの鍵からわくわく！
施設を見ながら、解説を聞きながら、不明点があれば調べて丁寧に教えてくれました。
ツアー終了後も飛行機愛、ANA愛をたくさん語りました。

I had the opportunity to witness a training facility for passenger aircraft operation support, which is something I usually never see. This experience made me re-recognize the difficulty and importance of the extensive and diligent work that goes on behind the scenes, which I usually take for granted. I would like to use this service again next time with even more gratitude.

通常全く目にすることのない旅客機運航支援業務の訓練施設を目の当たりにし、普段何気なく利用している裏の広範で地道な仕事の大変さ・重要さを再認識しました
次の機会には更なる感謝を込めて利用させて頂きたい

I was concerned about the weather and temperature, but it was clear and unseasonably warm, making it comfortable. Passing directly under Tokyo Tower and crossing the Rainbow Bridge was truly impressive. I've been to Tokyo many times, but I was captivated by the city from a different perspective.

お天気や気温が気になっていましたが、快晴とこの時期にしては高温だった為、快適でした。
東京タワーの真下を通ったり、レインボーブリッジを通る時は、大迫力でした。
東京には何度も行ってますが、違った目線で見る都会に魅了されました。

I used this service to guide my overseas friends around Tokyo. We had a very enjoyable and fulfilling time visiting places like the Imperial Palace and Asakusa.

However, the Tokyo Tower at the end was quite crowded that day, and due to the weather, the view wasn't very good, which was disappointing. There are many tall buildings around, so the scenery was a bit different from what I had expected. In the future, it might be a good idea to consider alternative spots depending on the crowd situation.

The guide from the Hato Bus provided very clear explanations about Japan, and I learned a lot of new things myself. Overall, we had a great time.

海外の友人を東京案内するのに利用しました。
皇居や浅草までは非常に楽しく、充実した時間を過ごせました。

ただ、最後の東京タワーは当日かなり混雑しており、天候の影響もあって眺望があまり良くなかった点が残念でした。周囲に高い建物が多いこともあり、期待していた景色とは少し違いました。
今後は混雑状況によっては、別のスポットを検討してくれると良いのかもしれません。

はとバスのガイドの方の日本の説明はとても分かりやすく、私自身も新たに知ることが多く、全体としては楽しい時間を過ごせました

I was worried about the tour being in both Chinese and English, but most of the participants were from Taiwan. Everyone had great manners and was very punctual, which made the experience enjoyable. The guide was also from China and was able to assist us in Japanese individually, which I appreciated.

The long-awaited trip to Nikko was wonderful. We were able to visit major tourist spots like Toshogu Shrine, Lake Chuzenji, and Kegon Falls, making it a tour filled with the charm of Nikko. However, it was unfortunate that the temperature dropped in the afternoon, and it was a bit chilly on the bus.

中国語と英語対応のツアーということで心配でしたが、参加者は殆ど台湾の方々でした。皆さん時間もマナーも素晴らしく、とても気持ちよかったです。ガイドも中国の方で、個別に日本語で対応していただき嬉しかったです。
ずっと行きたかった久しぶりの日光は素晴らしく、東照宮、中禅寺湖、華厳の滝と主要観光地を巡ることができ、日光の魅力の詰まったツアーでした。
ただ、午後から気温が下がり、バスの中も肌寒かったのは残念でした。

All in all, it was a great experience :) What I especially loved was that you were "accompanied" by several characters during the ride.

In addition, the taxi was extremely comfortable, the music was very entertaining, and even though I’ve been living in Tokyo for a few years now, I learned something new.

The guide, who was able to speak Japanese, taught us with great care, which made even me, as a Japanese person, feel a bit embarrassed. Overall, I was glad that the tour ended quickly.

日本語が出来るガイドさんが丁寧に教えて下さるので、日本人の自分でさえ恐縮する程でした。全体的に早くツアーが終わることができたので良かったです。

I arrived 30 minutes early.
There are many flags from various companies.
I can't find the flag for "VELTRA" that I signed up for, and I'm starting to feel anxious.
Then I received a call from someone holding an "EasyGo" flag.
When I got on the bus, it had a display for "FJONE."
Is this the right bus?????
I thought it would be an English tour guide, but I also received a Japanese tour guide just for the two of us Japanese people.
Thank you very much; it was fun!

30分前に着きました
各社のフラッグがたくさんある
申し込んだ「VELTRA」のフラッグが見当たらない　不安になってきた
　電話がきた「EasyGo」のフラッグを持った人から
　バスに乗ると「FJONE」の表示が
このバスで良いの？？？？？
　英語での観光案内と思っていたところ我ら日本人二人の為に日本語の観光案内も
有難うございました　楽しかったです

ANA Blue Base Tour
I was finally able to make a reservation after always being unable to do so, and it seems that another group canceled, so we had a private guide. The guide, who was a flight attendant, kindly shared information about training and licensing, and we had a very enjoyable time. Thank you to everyone involved.

ANAブルーベースツアー
いつも予約が取れないでやっととてましたところ、もう一組のお客さんがキャンセルとなった様で、貸切りガイドさんはＣＡの方で研修やライセンスの話も親切にしていただき大変楽しく良い時間を過ごす事ができました。
担当の方々ありがとうございました。

It was a tour that covered all the places I wanted to visit at Mount Fuji, but since it was aimed at foreign tourists, I hesitated until the last minute. However, since the guide spoke Japanese, I had no worries. I think it's a very cost-effective tour!

富士山で行きたところが全て網羅されたツアーでしたが、外国人向けツアーとのことで直前まで躊躇していましたが、ガイドさんが日本語を話せたため、心配はありませんでした。とてもコスパ良いツアーだと思います！

While it is indeed written that "the event will proceed even in the rain" and "bring rain gear," there are limits to this. It's unbelievable that they wouldn't close the roof despite the heavy rain. Because of the rain, I could only look down, and even though the guide was showing us the cherry blossom spots, I couldn't see anything. I felt like I was just paying to get soaked while riding the bus. They were selling cheap raincoats for those without rain gear, but they were flimsy plastic. I don't think they would protect anyone from the rain. It was also sad for the children. I understand the organizers' point that "if the roof is closed, you can't see the cherry blossoms," but since there are windows, I think it would be better to look out from there. It's better than not being able to see anything at all while looking down.

確かに「雨でも決行」や「雨具用意」とは書いてありますが限度があります
ひどい雨にもかかわらず屋根があるのに閉めないなんてありえない
雨のせいで下を向くしかなくガイドさんが桜の名所を案内してるのに見ることができません
お金を払って雨に打たれてバスに乗ってるだけでした
雨具を持ってない人向けのカッパも売ってましたがペラペラのビニール
あれでは雨から守れないと思います
子供もいて可哀想でした
運営側の「屋根があると桜が見えない」というのもわかりますが窓があるのでそこから見ればいいと思いますよ
下を向いて全く見えないよりマシです

Unfortunately, it rained, and I was able to purchase a 100 yen raincoat, but when I looked up, the rain hit my face, and I could hardly see the cherry blossoms. I heard that the bus is designed to have a closed roof, but due to company policy, it wasn't allowed. I think if the roof had been closed, we could have enjoyed the cherry blossoms more comfortably. There were about 40 passengers, but due to the cold and the rain coming in through the gaps in the raincoats, most of us got off along the way. I sincerely hope that the announcement includes a note stating that the roof may be closed in case of rain.

運悪く雨天となり100円のカッパを購入できましたが　上を向くと雨が顔にあたり桜はほぼ見れませんでした　バスは屋根が閉まる仕様との事ですが会社の方針でダメとの事　屋根が閉まれば落ち着いて桜も楽しめたのではと思います
40名程の乗車でしたがあまりの寒さとカッパの隙間からも入る雨に殆どが途中降車でした
案内の一文に雨天では屋根が閉まる場合もありますといれての運行を切に願います

The weather was nice, and it was a refreshing day for cherry blossom viewing, so I enjoyed it. However, the guide's talk was drowned out by the surrounding noise, making it very difficult to hear, which was disappointing.

お天気も良く、風も爽やかなお花見日和だったので楽しめましたが、ガイドさんのお話は周りの音に消されてとても聞き取りにくく、残念でした。

一开始走错门了，ana的工作人员还把我带到正确的地点了，非常感谢，整个参观安排非常合理，讲解员姐姐一直在引导大家互动，感觉更有tour而不是speech 的感觉，很有参与感，vr体验也很棒，下次再来吧

I used it for the first time. The weather was nice, with blue skies and cherry blossoms above, making for a fun bus tour. There was traffic, so we could enjoy the sights slowly. The meeting place and drop-off location were difficult for newcomers, and I got lost.

初めて利用しました
お天気が良く、青空と桜が頭上にあり楽しいバスツアーでした
渋滞していてゆっくり鑑賞できました
集合場所と下車場所がお上りさんには難しく、迷いました

For us who are over 70 years old, it was wonderful to enjoy the surroundings of the Imperial Palace without the hassle of walking around! We took the 10:00 bus course and got off in Asakusa. We enjoyed walking along the Sumida River and through the lively streets of Asakusa, as well as a delicious lunch. The cherry blossoms were not yet in full bloom, but we were able to fully enjoy the feeling of hanami (flower viewing).

７０歳を過ぎた私達には
歩いては回るのは大変な皇居の回り等々を
楽して楽しむことが出来最高‼︎
10：00のコースのバスに乗車し浅草で下車。
隅田川沿いや賑やかな浅草の街歩き、
美味しいランチも楽しみました。
桜は満開まではもう少しでしたが、十分お花見気分を味わうことができました。

The weather was cloudy and cold, and the cherry blossoms were either in full bloom or had already started to leaf out. Because it was cloudy, I couldn't take my time to enjoy the sakura. I just passed by in the car, and I only saw the famous spots from a distance, so it felt more like a sightseeing tour of Tokyo rather than a cherry blossom viewing experience.

天気も曇りで寒く、桜も満開か葉桜でした。
曇っているのもあるが、
さくらをゆっくり見ることができなかった。車で通り過ぎるだけ、名所も遠くから見るだけだったので、お花見ツアーと言うか、東京観光って感じでした

I participated on April 1st, but the cherry blossoms were already past their peak. I enjoyed the tour as the guide shared various insights about Tokyo, but I think it would be better to join at the end of March next time.

4月１日に参加しましたが、桜は、もうすでに葉桜。
ガイドさんのお話で、東京を色々案内していただいたので、たのしめましたが、次回は、３月の末に参加が良いと思いました。

Must visit if you love this airline or interested in airline companies. You will also have some understand about how the airline train their staff, and also some of their history.
There are many souvenirs for you to buy at the end. Overall the experience is quite good.

We traveled as a family of five. Taking the train from Tokyo Station to Asakusa can be quite challenging, so I recommend this Time Trip Taxi. The fare is not much different from a regular taxi... Once you get on, it's a lot of fun, and you arrive in no time. It was a great deal considering how enjoyable it was. My 8-year-old child was thrilled to see the character Oedo-kun!

家族5人で乗りました。
東京駅から浅草まで電車でいくのは大変なので、このタイムトリップタクシーおすすめです。
タクシーとあまり変わらない料金。。。
乗ったら非常に楽しいのであっという間に着くし、、、楽しい分お得でした
8歳の子供も出てくるキャラクターオエドんみて喜んでいました。。
