All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

It was great to see the actual training scenes during the guided tour led by ANA Group employees inside BLUE BASE! The experience felt like being at an airport, with wonderful touches like a 2D barcode resembling a boarding pass upon entry.

ANAグループ社員がBLUE BASE内を案内してくれるガイドツアーで実際の訓練風景が見られるのが良かったです！入館時から航空券に見立てた2次元バーコードなど空港にいるような演出が素敵でした。

The tour guide frequently expressed feeling unwell, which made us anxious.
On our way from Kyoto to Amanohashidate, we took the wrong highway, and as soon as we exited the interchange, we had to make a U-turn in front of the toll booth and get back on the highway. This was the first time I experienced something like this while using a bus. I was worried that an accident might happen. After that, I felt uneasy. In the end, we missed the sightseeing boat at Ine's Funaya that we were supposed to take in the morning. Despite the bad weather in the evening, the bus departed without checking on the passengers left behind.
Even while driving on the highway, the tour guide was moving around the bus collecting fees for optional activities and was being called out loudly by the driver.
It seemed that the coordination between the driver and the tour guide was terrible, creating a negative atmosphere inside the bus.

＊添乗員の方が、体調不良をしきりにアピールし、こちらも不安になりました。
＊京都から天橋立へ向かう際、高速道路を間違えたとのことで、インターチェンジを降りた途端、料金所の前でUターンし、再度高速道路に乗りました。
今までバスを利用し、このようなことは初めてです。事故が起こるのでは？と
その後は不安でした。結局午前に乗る予定だった伊根の舟屋の遊覧船にも間に合いませんでした。夕方には、天気が悪かったにもかかわらず、乗客を点呼もせず残したまま出発しました。
＊高速道路を走っているにもかかわらず、添乗員の方はバスの中を移動しながらオプションの料金を集めており、ドライバーから大声で呼ばれていました。
＊ドライバーと添乗員の方の連携が最悪の様で、バスの中の雰囲気が悪かった。

The moss-covered forest was amazing! Our guide, Manabe, provided detailed information about Yakushima's history and plants, which was very helpful.

苔むす森最高でした！ガイドのマナベさんが屋久島の歴史や植物のことを詳しく教えてくれて、助かりました。

I was originally scheduled to go on a glass-bottom boat in Taketomi Island, but due to unstable weather, it was changed to a cart ride instead. However, the rain stopped during the sightseeing, and I was able to have a great time. It's highly recommended for those who don't have much time, as you can experience various activities in one day! They also handled the sudden changes smoothly. I would love to participate again if I have the opportunity. Thank you!

本当は竹富島でグラスボートになる予定でしたが天気が不安定で､代わりに牛車に変更となりました。
それでも観光時には雨も止み、楽しく過ごすことができました。
一日で様々な体験が出来るので､日程があまりない方にはとてもおすすめです♪
急な変更などもスムーズに対応いただきました。
また､機会がありましたら参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

I had wanted to visit Shirakawa-go for a long time, so when I saw the limited-time light-up tour, I thought I had to go and participated. In the end, it was definitely the right decision! Shirakawa-go had amazing scenery even during the day, so I was already satisfied with that. I thought the light-up area was a bit smaller than I expected, but the atmosphere changed from the daytime to a magical scene at night. Since I had some time, I warmed up in the hot springs in Shirakawa-go, and as someone who loves hot springs, the slightly slippery water quality was just fantastic. The guide on the bus back shared interesting stories, so the time didn't feel long at all. I ended up sleeping on the way back, though, haha. It was also convenient to go from Kanazawa. Thank you very much!

以前から白川郷には行きたいと思っていたので、日程限定のライトアップツアーを見た時は行くしかない！と思って参加しました。
結果、行って正解でした！
白川郷は普通に昼間でも最高の景色だったのでそれだけでも満足でした。
ライトアップは思っていたより範囲が少ないかな？と思いましたが、昼間の雰囲気とは変わって夜は幻想的な景色になりました。
時間があったので白川郷の温泉で温まったのですが、温泉好きの私としてはぬるっとした湯質がこれまた最高でした。
往復のバス内でもガイドの方が興味深く話をしてくださったので、時間も長く感じなかったです。帰りは寝てましたが、笑
金沢から出ているのも行きやすくてよかったです。
ありがとうございました。

We participated as a family with a 6-year-old child and parents in their 60s. I was worried because the weather was bad and it was drizzling, but the guide's talk was interesting, and we enjoyed ourselves on the way to the location.

The site was exciting as we ventured into a dark, deep forest that ordinary people can't enter. Walking through caves and rocky areas was also fun. We were able to see about three coconut crabs, which was our main goal. We also found frogs and insects, and my sons, who love insects and reptiles, were thrilled. Although we couldn't see the starry sky due to the rain, there were so many trees that the light rain didn't bother us, and we were very satisfied with the tour.

６歳の子どもと６０代の父母との家族での参加でした。天気が悪く雨がちらついていたため不安でしたが、ガイドさんのトークも面白く、現地に向かう道中から楽しめました。
現地は、普通の人は入っていけないような真っ暗な深い森の中を進んでいき、とてもわくわくしました。洞窟や岩場を歩くのも面白かったです。お目当てのヤシガニも３匹ほど見ることができました。他にもカエルや虫を見つけて、昆虫やは虫類が大好きな息子たちは大喜びでした。雨のため星空は見れませんでしたが木がたくさんあるので、小雨も気にならず大満足のツアー内容でした。

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！

I participated on February 17th. When I was a senior in high school, I visited Shodoshima on a school trip. That was 55 years ago. With the fluent guidance of our veteran tour guide, we followed the same course as back then, visiting Kankakei, which we ascended by ropeway, the School of 24 Eyes, the beautifully clear sea, and the monkeys at the monkey park, who, despite the passage of time, remained charming. It was a healing journey filled with nostalgia. Thank you very much.

2/17に1人参加させて頂きました。
高校３年生の時、修学旅行で小豆島を訪れました。もう55年も前の事です。
ベタランのガイドさんの流暢な案内で、
当時と同じコースを巡りましたが、
ロープウェイで登った寒霞渓、24の瞳の学校後、青く済んだ海、そして、猿山の猿達も代が入れ替わっても愛らしく、とても懐かしく思い出しながらの癒しの旅が出来ました。
ありがとうございました。

On the first day, I visited Dazaifu and Yufuin. On the second day, I participated in a tour of Kumamoto Castle and Mount Aso Nakadake. By chance, I had the same female guide on both days, and I was the only Japanese person in the group. However, she always provided the guide in Japanese after Chinese and English, so there were no issues.

1日目太宰府、湯布院 2日目熊本城、阿蘇中岳に参加しました。たまたま、2日とも同じ女性のガイドさんで日本人は私1人でしたが中国語、英語の後必ず日本語でガイドしてくれるので問題ありませんでした。

The emotion I felt when I walked to Cape Kamoi and stood at the tip was incredible! It was a nice day with not much wind, but I imagined how difficult it must have been for people in the past to walk to such a point in bad weather and strong winds. It was a journey that made me reflect on the greatness of nature and the connection between humans and it.

I drove along the coastline and was captivated by the deep blue sea and the strange rock formations. Unfortunately, the sea urchin rice bowl was out of season, but I definitely want to try the sea urchin from Shakotan next time.

実際に神威岬まで歩き、先端に立ったときの感動！
天気がよく風もさほどない日だったのですが、昔の人が天気が悪く風もあるなか、あのような突端まで歩くのはさぞ大変だっただろうと想像し、自然の偉大さと人のかかわりに想いを馳せる旅でした。
海岸線を走り、真っ青に広がる海と、奇岩に心を奪われてしまいました。
残念ながらウニ丼は季節が終わっていたのですが、次回はぜひ積丹のウニを食べてみたいです。

For the people of Hokkaido, it felt like spring had arrived, with temperatures and clear skies no different from those in the Kanto region, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

From the top of Mount Usu, I was moved by the grandeur of Showa Shinzan and Lake Toya, the miracles of the Earth, and the local efforts to coexist with active volcanoes.

Usually, the temperature is significantly lower when getting off the ropeway compared to the base of the mountain, but this time I didn't mind at all and was able to fully appreciate the scenery from the heart.

I sat next to someone of the opposite sex who was also traveling alone on the bus, and our conversation picked up along the way, making me feel the joy of travel once again.

北海道の人にとって、春が来た？というほどの、関東と変わらぬ気温と快晴の空のもと、美しい景色を堪能しました。
有珠山の上から見た、昭和新山、洞爺湖の雄大さ、地球の奇跡、活火山と共存する地元のかたの取組の展示など、全てに感動です！
いつもならロープウェイ降りるとかなり山の下より気温が低いらしいのが、全く気にならず心から景色を堪能できました。
バス席は一人参加で、同じく一人参加の異性の方のとなりでしたが、途中から話が盛り上り、旅の楽しさを改めて感じました。

It was said that summer is the best season because there are many living creatures, but I enjoyed it plenty even in the winter of February! Above all, the guide's wealth of knowledge and passion for the island came through in their talk, which was fantastic. I want to experience it in summer too!

夏が生き物がたくさんいてベストシーズンということでしたが、2月の冬でも十分楽しめました！！何よりガイドさんの知識の豊富さや島愛が伝わってくるトークが最高でした。
夏も体験したいです！

The tour guides kept us entertained with many fun stories during both the outbound and return trips, and I learned a lot of things I didn't know, making it an enjoyable experience from start to finish. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy this time, so we couldn't see the starry sky, but I hope to see many stars next time I participate. The other highlight, the coconut crab, was diligently found by the tour guides, and we were able to take pictures together. Before going, I couldn't imagine what it would be like and was somewhat skeptical, but once I was taken to the site and went on the adventure, it was even more enjoyable than I had imagined, and I had a truly valuable experience. Thank you to all the staff.

ツアーの担当者の方々は、行きも帰りも車内の中で楽しい話をたくさんしてくださり、知らなかったこともたくさん聞けて最初から最後まで盛りだくさんに楽しませていただきました。
今回は、天気が曇りだったので残念ながら星空は観ることが出来ませんでしたが、次回参加した時には星空がたくさん観れたら嬉しいなと思っています。
もう一つの目玉のヤシガニはツアーの担当者の方々が一生懸命見つけてくださり一緒に写真を撮ることも出来ました。
行く前はどんな感じか想像もつかず半信半疑でしたが、実際に現地に連れて行ってもらい冒険をしてみたら想像以上に楽しく大変貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
スタッフの皆様、ありがとうございました。

The training facility offers an extraordinary experience. Since photography is prohibited, you can't capture memories, so outside of the designated photo areas, I believe that taking the time to observe will leave you with experiences you haven't had before.

訓練施設は非日常の体験を味わう事ができます。何故なら訓練施設は撮影が禁止である為思い出に残す事ができないので撮影OKエリア以外はじっくり目で見ればこれまで味わえなかった体験が残ると思います。

The weather was nice, and the mystique of Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine, Amano Iwato Shrine, and Amano Kawara was very strong. While traveling by bus, the view of Mount Aso was dynamic and beautiful, conveying the mysteries of nature on a global scale. Takachiho Gorge was also breathtaking, and I was overwhelmed by the astonishingly large number of columnar joints I witnessed. The participants were multinational, including people from the U.S., China, Taiwan, Korea, and Singapore, and as a Japanese person, I was in the minority (probably the only one), but everyone was well-mannered, making for a pleasant trip. The guide was Chinese and had no issues with Japanese or English, effectively communicating the features of the tourist spots in Japanese, which helped me understand them well. The bus driver was also a pleasant person. It was a long day from 8:00 to 18:30, but it was truly an interesting day that flew by.

天気が良く、上色見熊野座神社、天安河原、天岩戸神社の神秘性が非常に強く伝わってきました。各所をバスで移動中に見える阿蘇山もダイナミックで美しく、地球規模の自然の神秘も伝わってきました。高千穂峡も圧巻で、驚くほど巨大で多くの柱状節理を目の当たりにし、圧倒された一日でした。参加者は米、中、台、韓、シンガポールなど多国籍で日本人の私は少数派（恐らく1人だけ）でしたが、すべての人がマナー良く心地よい旅でした。ガイドさんは中国人で日本語にも英語にも問題はなく、要所を日本語で伝えてくれましたので観光スポットの特徴をよく理解することができました。バスの運転手も感じの良い方でした。8：00～18：30の長丁場でしたが、あっという間の本当に面白い一日でした。

I traveled around Yubu Island by bicycle. I had heard that the island is flat with few hills, but there was sand on the roads, causing the bicycle tires to sink in, and there were also some hills. I should have opted for an electric bike.

The mangrove cruise in Iriomote was led by a very good guide, so even though it was my second time, I was able to see it from a new perspective.

由布島での移動を自転車でしました、島自体が平で坂道が少ないと聞いていましたが、道に砂があり、自転車のタイヤがめり込んだり、坂道もあり、電動自転車にすれば良かった。
西表のﾏﾝｸﾞﾛｰﾌﾞｸﾙｰｽﾞは説明が上手な方だったので、2度目でしたが新しい視点で見れました。

It was a very fulfilling tour. I had a lot of fun experiencing things that would be difficult to arrange on my own. Although there were many participants, it was great that there was also free time for exploration.

非常に充実したツアーでした。個人では手配するのが難しい体験がツアーを通してたくさんできて楽しかったです。参加人数は多かったですが、自由散策の時間もあるため良かったです。

I arrived a bit early at the ANA Blue Base building, and the reception staff kindly accommodated me, allowing me to enter. The reception was very polite, and I was able to smoothly experience the travel tour. Since there were only four participants, including my wife and me, the tour was fulfilling, with thorough explanations and answers to individual questions during the 70-minute tour.

若干時間が早くANA Blue Base館に到着してしまい、受付の臨機応変に対応いただき入館させていただきました。とても丁寧なな受付対応でスムーズにトラベルツアー体験できました。参加人数も私と妻を含め４名と少人数であったためもあり、丁寧な説明や個々の疑問に対しての解答など充実した７０分ツアーでした。

The weather was quite stormy with rain and wind for February 💦. However, I had such a fun time that I forgot about it 🥹💕. I experienced mangrove canoeing, where they carefully taught me how to operate the canoe, explained the plants, and I felt a sense of healing from nature, detoxifying both my mind and body 🫶🏼. For snorkeling, they chose a location less affected by the rain and wind, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience even for beginners 🐠. Thanks to that, I had a very enjoyable and fulfilling snorkeling experience, and I felt so happy ✨🤿. The staff who taught us were all very friendly and warm, making me want to come back again 😌✨.

天候は2月のため雨風が強い状況でした💦
でもそんなことを忘れるくらい楽しい時間を過ごせました🥹💕
マングローブカヌーを体験してカヌーの操作方法を丁寧に教えてくださったり、草木の説明や自然からの癒しを感じれて心も体もデトックスされました🫶🏼
シュノーケリングも雨風の影響を受けにくい場所を選び初心者の方でも安全に楽しめる場所を選んでくれました🐠
そのおかげでとても楽しく、充実したシュノーケリングを体験できて幸せでした✨🤿
教えてくださるスタッフの方が皆さんすごく気さくで温かくまた行きたいと思えました😌✨

During our 3-day, 2-night trip, we experienced snorkeling and SUP through Beltora! Miraculously, we were able to see a sea turtle while snorkeling, which was a very precious experience! Unfortunately, due to bad weather, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave, so I want to take revenge on that next time I travel!

During the SUP in the mangroves, we were able to experience a mysterious world that we usually can't see. Also, the instructor took some great photos, which became wonderful memories.

I would like to rely on your services again next time!

2泊3日の中日にベルトラさん経由でシュノーケリングとSUPを体験させていただきました！シュノーケリングでは奇跡的にウミガメを見ることができ、とても貴重な体験ができました！天候が悪く、残念ながら青の洞窟には行けなかったので、また旅行に行った際にリベンジしたいです！
マングローブでのサップでは、普段見ることのできない不思議な世界を体験することができました。また、インストラクターの方が撮ってくれる写真がとても上手で、とてもいい思い出になりました。
次回いく際もお世話になりたいと思います！

Since it was my first time visiting Nagasaki, I wanted to get an overall view of the tourist spots, so I requested a full-day course that combined the morning Peace Prayer Course and the afternoon Exotic Atmosphere Course.

Not only did they guide us through the key points, but I was also impressed by the professionalism of the guide, who conveyed information ahead of time. They provided very clear and thorough instructions on the meeting point and what to do if we chose to leave the tour for some free time.

On the way back, we walked through Dutch Slope and Chinatown, and smoothly returned to the station by taking the streetcar. Thank you very much!

初めての長崎市観光なので、観光地の全体像を知りたくて午前の平和の祈りコースと午後の異国情緒コース両方をドッキングさせた一日コースをお願いしました。
要所要所をきちんと案内して下さるのはもちろん、ガイドさんの先の先を伝えるプロ意識に感銘致しました。集合場所の案内、途中でツアーを離れて自由行動を選んだ場合にはどうすればいいのか？を非常に分かりやすく丁寧に教えて頂けました。
帰りは徒歩でオランダ坂、中華街へ行き、駅に向かって路面電車に乗って駅前にスムーズに戻れました♪ありがとうございました！

I found this tour by chance on the internet. At first, I thought there wouldn't be enough time to visit each place, but once I started the tour, I realized that the time allocated was very appropriate. No matter how great a place is, staying too long can lead to boredom. It was wonderful to feel a bit of reluctance while soaking in the afterglow before heading to the next sightseeing spot. Also, the order of the tour was optimal, and I appreciate being taken to the illuminated Ice Festival at the end. Lastly, to our guide, I thank you for managing the bilingual tour in Chinese and your still-developing Japanese without a single frown until the end.

今回のツアーは、たまたまネットで見つけてきたものでした。最初は、それぞれの土地を回る時間が少ないと思っていましたが、いざ回ってみると、とても適切な時間であると気付きました。どんなにいい土地でも滞在しすぎると飽きが来るものです。余韻に浸りながら少し物惜しさを感じつつ次の観光地へ行くというのがとても良かったです。また、回る順番も最適で最後にライトアップのある氷濤祭りへ連れて行って下さって感謝しています。最後にガイドさん、中国語と、まだ慣れない日本語を使って大変だろう、二か国語のツアーを最後まで嫌な顔ひとつせずして頂きありがとうございました。

This was my first time in Ishigaki Island, and I considered going to more remote islands on my own, but I became anxious about the possibility of not being able to secure a ferry reservation, especially given the recent over-tourism I’ve been experiencing in the area. So, I decided to join a tour.

As a result, I was able to efficiently visit three islands and get a glimpse of their charm. The guides were all unique and had their own styles, and they were very good at communicating, which made it a lot of fun.

I think I could have managed to visit each island on my own, but the tour included lunch and transportation with the guide, which felt like a great deal. I realized that starting with a guided tour to explore the highlights and then diving deeper into the places that interest me as a repeat visitor might be the best approach.

Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy with occasional light rain, so I was glad I opted for a bus tour instead of walking or biking around Taketomi Island. However, since we traveled by car to the sightseeing spots, the time spent on the island felt a bit short, and I wished I could have stayed longer. I didn’t have a chance to buy souvenirs except on Yubu Island.

The guide for the jungle cruise was positive, saying that even though it was raining, there were still good things about it, which I appreciated. When the guide expressed disappointment about the weather multiple times, I thought that the most disappointed people were the guests who traveled from afar, and I couldn’t help but think they should offer a discount (though not specifically for this tour).

初石垣島、自力でさらに離島に行くことも考えましたが船の予約が取れないこともあると見て、昨今のオーバーツーリズムを日々実感する地域から行くこともあって不安になりツアーに申し込むことに。
結果三島を効率よく巡って魅力の一端を感じることが出来ました。登場したガイドさんも三者三様で個性的で、皆さんお話がお上手でとても楽しかったです。
それぞれの島に行くだけなら自力でも行けたかなとは思いますが、昼食まで付いてガイドさんも送迎も付いてとてもお得感はあり、やはり最初は解説付きで巡って気になるところをリピーターとして深掘りするのが良いのかなと思いました。
あいにく曇り空に時々小雨といった天気だったので竹富島はフリー歩きや自転車にせずバスツアーにしておいて良かったなと思いますが、見どころ地点に車で行く分？時間が短いのでもう少し島内にいたかったなあとは思いました。由布島以外ではお土産を買うチャンスはありませんでした。
ジャングルクルーズのガイドさんは雨だけど逆に良いこともあると前向きに話して下さってありがたかったです。
ガイドさんに何度もお天気を残念がられると一番残念なのは遠方から来る客の方だしじゃあ値引きしてくれと思っちゃうので(こちらのツアーのことではないです)。

I was glad to efficiently visit the famous tourist spots in Kyoto. We had international participants on the tour, and the explanations were provided in both English and Japanese, which helped me understand the content well and also served as a good opportunity to study English. I chose the lunch plan, and while the Kyoto tofu meal was a bit different from what I had imagined, it was delicious.

京都の有名な観光地を効率よく回れて良かったです。海外からの方も一緒にツアーを回りましたが英語と日本語で説明してくださったので、内容もしっかり分かり英語の勉強にもなりました。
昼食付きプランを選択しましたが、京豆腐御膳…想像していたものとは少し違いましたが美味しくいただけました。

The snow and scenery in Shirakawa-go were beautiful, and I enjoyed tasting and purchasing sake in Takayama. It was a shame that the mitarashi dango was sold out in Takayama, so I couldn't try it, but I was able to relax without any rain.

白川郷の雪と景色、高山ではお酒の飲み比べをして購入しました。
高山でみたらし団子が売り切れており、食べられなかったのは残念でしたが、雨が降ることもなく、ゆっくり過ごすことができました。

When I arrived at the meeting place in the hotel lobby, there was an incredible crowd, and I had a hard time finding the tour guide. After speaking to four people, I finally managed to meet up, but I was registered as Malaysian. In my group, there were only three Japanese people, and we received instructions in English and Chinese before boarding the bus. While waiting for departure, a different Chinese tour guide offered to change my bus since there were Japanese people on it. However, the announcements on the bus were mostly in Chinese, with only a little in Japanese. I was satisfied with the destination.

集合場所のホテルロビーに行った所、物凄い人混み、中々、添乗員と合流できず、4人に声かけしてやっと合流、しかし私がマレーシア人で登録されてた。乗車バスは日本人は私のグループ3人だけで車内案内は英語、中国語との説明を受けて乗車、出発を待っていたら違う中国人の添乗員さんから私のバスには日本人いるのでバス変更しますかと誘ってもらいました。が、バスの車内案内説明は日本語少し、主に中国語での説明でした。
行き先には満足しました。

When I made the reservation for February 18 last September, I was informed that "there might be snow in February." Just as expected, I heard three days ago that "due to last week's cold wave, the Jomon Sugi Trail has snow, and the road to the trailhead is completely closed." I was half resigned to this, but during a phone call the day before, I was pleasantly surprised to hear, "The road has opened today, so the trekking tomorrow will proceed, but there is still snow up to knee height, so if you're okay with a tour to wherever we can go, please join us. If you decide not to participate due to the conditions, we will refund you in full." However, we decided to go as far as we could, and in the end, we made it to the Sugi tree. After consulting with the other two groups of four participants and our guide, we decided to turn back here. Everyone was satisfied with this decision. I also thought that the snowy path would be tiring, so I agreed to turn back. The guide provided detailed explanations along the way and even made coffee for us, which was greatly appreciated. I think participating in this tour was a good decision.

2月18日の予約を去年の9月にしたときに、「2月は雪もあります」ということは聞いていました。ドンピシャで「先週の寒波で縄文杉トレイルは積雪、登山口までの道路は全面通行止め」と3日前の電話の時にお聞きしていました。半分あきらめていましたが、前日の電話では、なんと！「今日から通行できるようになりましたので明日のトレッキングは開催できますが、途中、膝くらいまで雪が残っているので、行けるところまでのツアーでもよければ参加ください。もし、状況的に今回は不参加なら、全額返金します。」というお話をいただきました。でも、行けるところまで行ってみようということで、結局三代杉まで行ってきました。同行の2組4名さんとガイドさんとの相談でここで引き返そうと決まりました。皆さん、今日はこれで満足ということでした。私も、雪道は疲れると思い、引き返すことに賛成しました。ガイドさんは道中、細かく説明もしてくれて、コーヒーもいれてくれて、大変よくしてくださいました。今回のツアー参加はよかったと思っています。

I communicated the general information to the taxi driver and asked to be taken to a place with fewer tourists. It was great to be able to walk around and take my time without any stress. The driver's personality was also very nice, and the tour was kind and attentive. I would like to use this service again. Thank you very much.

I participated on February 17 from Osaka to see the penguin walk. The weather was favorable and the highway was smooth, so I was able to enjoy the park for a full three and a half hours. There was no wind, so it wasn't as cold as I had worried it would be, and I didn't need a hat or earmuffs. It was also good that I adjusted my timing, as I had no trouble finding a place for lunch. I enjoyed the break and shopping at the Sunagawa Service Area along the way. The bus guide's stories were interesting, and I enjoyed the unique information from a Hokkaido resident and the scenery from the bus without getting bored during the trip. Thank you very much.

ペンギンの散歩を見るため、大阪から2月17日に参加しました。
天候に恵まれ高速もスムーズだったので、園内3時間半たっぷり楽しめました。風もなかったので心配していたほど寒くもなく帽子や耳当ては不要でした。時間をずらしたのがよかったのか昼食休憩場所にも困りませんでした。
途中の砂川サービスエリアでの休憩＆買い物も楽しめました。
バスガイドさんのお話も興味深く、北海道民ならではの情報や車内からの景色など道中飽きることなく楽しめました。
ありがとうございました。

I was able to efficiently and comfortably visit the attractions and sightseeing spots in Ishigaki Island. The bus guide and the driver were both friendly and kind.

石垣島の見どころや観光地等を、効率よく、安全・快適に巡ることができました。
バスガイドさんも、運転手の方も、感じよく親切に接してくれました。
