All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

I bought this as a gift for my parents, they had a great time and said it was a highlight of their time in Japan.

This tour will offer you loads of opportunities to see Mt. Fuji, and in a clear weather you should be able to enjoy magnificent views. On the day I went the weather was not perfect but still managed to catch a few glimpses of the mountain.

According to our guide we were very lucky to be able to go to the 5th Station, as in winter the road is often closed due to the snow fall. At the 5th station you can admire the panoramic view of the 'Japanese Alps' and of course the top of Fuji itself. There is also a big souvenir shop where you can get some nice gifts or a snack (try Fuji-shaped melon pan!).

After that we were transferred to the restaurant for lunch - it was a Japanese style meal and really delicious! People who didn't book lunch had some free time to eat their own lunch or buy something at the spot (there was a small bakery).

Our next stop was Hakone and a picturesque Ashi lake cruise to the reopeway station. I imagine that on a clear day the view from the ropeway would be amazing, but during our trip we were welcomed by a little snow storm, so we couldn't see much. Mt. Komagatake however was really great, really enjoyed a short hike to the shrine at the top.

The guide was super nice, kept us entertained on the us and provided some interesting information as well.

Overall it was a very nice tour and well organised tour and despite of the fact that the weather was not perfect, it was a nice day out of Tokyo.

We loved it our guide Mr Hiro is amazing he really knows what he is talking about. The bus is comfortable and has wifi. The sight seeing of the mount is great but on the afternoon when you do the cable car is quite difficult to see the mount because it is hiding in the clouds. The food is not amazing but it does the job. I strongly recommend this one day trip. Even on the high way before arriving the views are stunning.

I rode all three routes and was able to enjoy the scenery of Tokyo at a leisurely pace, which was very relaxing. Until now, I often traveled by subway, but the view from the second floor of the double-decker bus was excellent, and familiar places looked different from up there.

However, since it was during the Silver Week holiday, it was quite crowded. Although you can get on and off freely, there were times when it was full and I couldn't board, and there were also delays due to traffic, which took quite a bit of time. It might not be suitable for those in a hurry, but my husband and I were very satisfied with the experience.

3ルート全てに乗りましたが、ゆっくりと東京の風景を楽しむことができ、のんびりすることができました。今までは地下鉄で移動することが多かったのですが、2階建の高い所からの眺めはとてもよく、知っている場所も、違ったように見えました。
ただシルバーウィーク期間中だったので、かなり混んでいました。乗り降り自由ですが、乗りたくても満員で乗れないこともあったり、渋滞でかなり時間がかかったりということもありました。時間がない人には不向きかもしれませんが、私たち夫婦は満足できる内容でした。

Enjoyed our trip but I would recommend a two day to really see the sights. We did all three routes in one day, but only stopped at two places in order to complete all three routes. The downside is if you get off the bus, you have to wait for the next bus which maybe an 1 1/2 to 2 hours. They are very punctual in accordance with their schedule. Dress appropriate for the weather as it got really cold in the evening. I'm not sure if they have other closed busses, but ours only had a top deck and considering it was January it was very cold. Also, you can only pickup the tickets at two locations, The company may want to consider having people conductors redeem tickets at all stops for the convenience of the customer. The headsets were usually in line with the sights but sometimes would seem off for the things you were viewing. We have taken various hop on hop off bus tours in cities around the world, generally we find it a great way to get and overview of the city and we generally go back to our favorite spots, time permitting. Overall, we really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend it if you are short on time in the city.

It's our first time to travel in Japan and Mt.Fuji is a must-to-see in our list. It didn't take much to book for a trip since Veltra offers a variety of Mt.Fuji tours and hundreds of tours as well. Veltra did an amazing job. From hotel transfers up to the trip and tour itself, everything went perfectly smooth.No hassles, no fuss....I will use Veltra again on my upcoming trip in Korea come May. Thumbs up!

This is a great way to see Tokyo, the open top makes it better than a traditional bus, we had great fun riding around the whole route, picking where we would get off next time around. The girls on the bus were very helpful and the commentary interesting. Highly recommend this.

Whole day with kids!!!! Well organized trip!!! Kids enjoyed everything!!!!!

The guide, Kana-san was superb. She had a pleasant voice, funny and full of knowledge. We had fun and was well taken care of throughout. Lunch was awesome. Mt Fuji is as seen in pictures or even better and breathtaking. This trip was definitely worth the money :)

The weather was amazing. The organisation was even more amazing! The fact that they were so flexible impressed us. We had another unplanned journey to see Fujisan from
Another mountain and it was the best of the best. Hopefully we can do this again with all the family members. Good and impressive food as well.

This trip was well organised and I love the Japanese tour guide who really take cares of all the group members.

It's the first time we did the hop on- hop off bus tour itinerary in Japan and it was truly a wonderful experience. All members of the family got so excited. The bus was on time in each pick-up station and the bus assistant/receptionist was very friendly and courteous. Though it was freezing cold to stay up the deck, we enjoyed the picture-perfect sight seeing in major tourist destinations in Tokyo. The visit to the shrine in Asakusa was enriching. The sight of the beautiful Tokyo Tower was Lovely and magical. Passing through the colorful Rainbow Bridge on a very cold winter breeze at night time was awesome as we trudged our way to Aqua City at Odaiba on time for the fireworks show across the horizon. What a truly wonderful, exciting and unforgettable experience we had!

The service from the staff in Tokyo were very helpful and kind.
The schedule of the bus was very punctual. We used the 3 routes available to tour the city. My wife and I enjoyed very much the ride in the bus since we we have the chance to sight very important places in Tokyo. We went to the Tokyo Tower, the Sytree, the Senso-Ji temple, Asakasa area as well as Ropongi Hills, Akihabara, Odaiba Island, among other excited places.
The guide of the bus was very helpful and always were ready to help us. I will not hesitate at all to book with Veltra for another Bus tours.
Although the weather was chilly we enjoyed the tour vey much!

It was amazingly well organized. I was picked up in a taxi by my guide, and then taken to the buses where the tour was to begin! All the guides spoke excellent English, and included many highlights including Tokyo tower, Imperial Palace, and an authentic Japanese lunch. Well worth it!

I highly recommend this Tokyo Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Package. The three route it offers provided most of the scenic attractions such as the Tokyo Skytree, Senso-ji temple in Asakusa, Tokyo Tower, Odaiba, Akihabara, Roppongi, Ginza, Ueno Zoo and many more. The staff are very friendly and the buses almost always arrive in time. You need to plan your drop off point to maximize the tour. They have audio in English which helps to describe important landmark. What is nice about the package is they provide 24 hours window to use your voucher. This means that if you started 12:00 pm your voucher is good until 12:00 pm the next day. The scenery provided by this package cannot be seen on ordinary buses or trains. The highlight is when we were traversing the rainbow bridge on the open top during the night on the way to Odaiba while we were shivering but the view was amazing.

From the very start of the day right through the very end............it was a exciting and enjoyable day. We got picked up from a Hotel in Tokyo on time and headed off via coach towards Mount Fuji. The tour guide was experienced, knowledgeable and very friendly throughout the day and her English speaking skills were exceptional.

We were being told it is a must ride when we visited Tokyo. I could not agree more. For as little as 20+ dollars, we were able to take the bus to tour around the major tourist spots in Tokyo. That amount is relatively cheap when compared to the high transportation cost in the city. Before the tour, we were being told it is impossible to sit through all 3 routes unless we do not hop off the bus throughout the whole journey. Hence, we made some careful planning and took the Odaiba and Tokyo town routes. We did not go to Asakusa because we already went there the day before. The Odaiba route is particularly enjoyable because we were able to tour around the rainbow bridge and look at the beautiful skyline and the magnificient sea view.

Tokyo hop-on hop-off bus is essential to explore the metropolitan city. You can hop on and hop off the bus from various spots and routes. During the tour, you will be given an earphone and you can listen to a guided tour translated in different languages, such as chinese, english, korean and japanese. We were not supposed to stand up and move around during the tour though. The staff somewhat appeared to be a little angry when we did. We thought it is a little bit stringent on the rules but on a hindsight they were peculiarly serious about the safety and well being of the foreign tourists. All in all, we enjoyed ourselves very much during the tour. It was a little too sunny for our liking on that day. But, it is bearable with the cool breeze blowing during the winter time.

The service of the staff in Tokyo were very helpful. We used the Bus-On_Hop-Off the day 25th of December, 2015. We also used 2 of the 3 routes available. We rode through the places like Akihabara, Ropongi Hills, Ueno, Tokyo Tower, and the Skytree, among others.

We were very forutnately to have one of the stop of the bus in the hotel we stayed (the New Otani Garden Tower Hotel). For that matter it was also vey convenious.

It was great experience we will do it again.

The time was a little chilly for that time of the year, but is was worthwhile the experience of using this service.

In general we were glad we used the bus tour.

The Hop-on Hop-off bus tickets would bring you to many of the prominent tourist places. It is a great way to explore the city and very convenient for you to drop off at your desired spots for touring. With 1-day pass, it is quite impossible to take all 3 routes unless you intend to just sit on the bus without dropping off at the numerous tourist spots. Hence, you would need careful planning of the route. I first took the bus at Tokyo Station for the Odaiba course, dropping off at Venus Port (since I did not manage to go there when I went to Aqua City and Diver City the previous day) before taking the bus again one hour later back to Tokyo Station. After that, I took the bus again to go to Roppongi Hills. It depends on which place you want to go and with careful planning you will be enjoying the bus tour very much.

It was very well organized with good customer service, I will go back to this company for my next tour to Kyota, Mount Fuji your was great!

The tour is very organized and timely. They even have seating chart on the bus. The tour guides are great and friendly. When we took it the intended rope way was closed due to strong winds, but we saw another rope way is running. they refunded the portion of the rope way entrance fee. The all you can east yakiniku buffet is good. Gotemba shopping outlet is great. Overall it is a nice tour!

The buses condition is great and clean. The tour is precise in timing however the schedule is not that frequent (one hour plus). This is open top seating bus only and it gets pretty cold during the winter when the bus moves quickly. The coverage of the tour is great however the initial boarding/getting the pass is only in couple places, cant be done on every stop. The tour guides are nice and helpful, it is no hassle on bringing infant and stroller. The pass is Valid for 24 hours from the initial pass exchange, So you can continue using it the next day when you start late on the day. The tour is running until pretty late too. Good price for money. Recommended.

This was my second time using the service. During my first visit, I used it for sightseeing on a single route, and it was quite fulfilling as I was able to efficiently visit various attractions.

This time, my purpose was shopping at multiple shopping malls, so I used the Odaiba course again to shop in Odaiba and Toyosu. The bus stops right in front of the shopping malls, making it very convenient for shopping!

A significant difference from my last experience was that we crossed the Rainbow Bridge on the highway, which offered great views, and although the wind was a bit chilly, it felt nice.

The bus users were mostly foreigners and Japanese people who seemed to be from other regions. Most of the users appeared to enjoy taking photos and engaging in lively conversations as we passed by tourist spots.

In the future, when local friends or family come to Tokyo, I will use this service again. I would also like to try the Asakusa and Skytree route, as well as the Roppongi route.

今回の利用は2回目で、前回利用した時は1ルートだけ観光目的で利用しました。その際は観光名所を効率良くまわれて、かなり充実しました。

今回は複数のショッピングモールで買い物が目的だったため、前回と同様にお台場コースを利用してお台場と豊洲で買い物をしました。このバスはショッピングモールの前にバス停があるため買い物にもとても便利です！

前回と大きく違ったのは、レインボーブリッジを高速道路で通ったため、景色が良かったのと、少し風が冷たかったですが、気持ち良かったです。

バスの利用者は、外国の方が大半と地方から来たと思われる日本人の方が利用されていました。
利用者のほとんどが、観光名所を通ると楽しそうに写真撮影したり、会話がかなり盛り上げっていました。

今後、地元の友人や家族が東京に来た際は、また利用します。
その際は、浅草やスカイツリールートや六本木ルートも回ってみたいと思います。

It was a quiet Monday so it ended being just 3 couples. We felt like it was a private tour. Wished we had more time at Mt Fuji but lunch was awesome!! Great tour guide and very friendly!

We enjoyed this tour although it was a lot of time on the bus compared to the time off the bus. The guide was quite good although she could provide more information about the region to make the time on the bus pass faster. The luncheon provided was excellent and we really liked the Hakone region.

This daily tour is very sufficient. Managed to go to station 5 at Mount Fuji but abit Rush.
The lunch package is very fulfilling. The variety of traditional Japanese lunch is good.

Very good and well organised tour..I liked it and would like to comeback again with family

We really enjoy the Hop On Hop Off bus tour of Toyko. The best part was the checkin. It was easy and the attendant gave us the tickets within 2 minutes. While on the bus, the best part is the top deck. We had great weather 2 weeks ago so this was an extra plus. The top deck also lets you take great pictures so we were excited being on top. We were given earphones which we had forgotten so this was just incredible service. The stops are great. They were easy to find and maps were easy to read. The schedules were also easy to read and we were able to plan accordingly. All in all, we had a great time, used the bus to see everything, and also get around town conveniently.
