All Reviews for Sightseeing Tours

Thanks to the calm and lovely tour guide and driver’s safe driving, I was able to have a wonderful trip. I enjoyed beautiful scenery and flowers, and had the best time. Thank you very much.

落ち着いて可愛い添乗員さんとドライバーさんの安全運転で、とてもいい旅をする事ができました。美しい景色とお花、最高の時間を過ごすことが出来ました。ありがとうございました。

I think this tour is just right for those who don't need to rent a car. It was also great that the connections for the boat were well considered.

レンタカーを借りるまでも無い人には丁度良いツアーだと思います。
船の乗り継ぎも考えられていて良かったです。

For those who do not participate in activities like snorkeling, I recommend the glass-bottom boat tour in Taketomi Island. However, the water buffalo cart tours are crowded and have very long wait times, which leaves almost no time for free exploration of Taketomi Island afterward. Therefore, I suggest opting for cycling instead of the water buffalo cart course.

シュノーケリング等をやらない方には竹富島グラスボートお勧めですが、水牛車観光は混雑していてとても待ち時間が長い為、その後の竹富島フリー観光時間がほぼ無くなるので水牛車コースではなくサイクリングをお勧めします。

Under the guidance of Komecchi, I received a lecture on how to use the snorkeling equipment, and we encountered a sea turtle almost immediately after starting! I was so moved to see a sea turtle up close so quickly, as I didn't expect it at all. 🥹

We were also taken to areas with lots of coral reefs and fish, and they quickly sent us many photos and videos! Initially, I had booked the 9 AM tour, but considering the clarity of the water and the crowds, they recommended switching to the 7 AM tour, which turned out to be a great decision! By 9 AM, there were quite a few more people around.

Komecchi's guidance was also enjoyable! I made wonderful memories. Thank you very much! 😊

こめっちさんガイドの元、シュノーケルの使い方などレクチャーしていただき、開始して本当にすぐにウミガメに出会えました！
手の届くような距離でこんなにすぐにウミガメに出会えるとは思っていなかったので感動しました🥹
珊瑚礁や魚たちがたくさんいるところにも連れていってもらい、本当にたくさんの写真や動画をすぐに送ってくださいました！
当初9時のツアーを申し込んでいましたが、海の透明度や混雑なども踏まえ7時のツアーを勧めてくださり変更して大正解でした！
9時の時点でかなり人も増えておりました。
こめっちさんのガイドも楽しかったです！
素敵な思い出ができました。
ありがとうございました😊

This is my first time in Ishigaki Island. This time, since I didn't have much time, I joined this tour to efficiently visit the surrounding islands. Whether boarding the boat or the bus, there was very little waiting time, and everything went smoothly. Fortunately, the waves weren't high, and I didn't experience the seasickness I was worried about, but I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness bring some medication.

石垣島は初めて。今回は、あまり時間がなかったこともあり、離島を効率よく回るのに、このツアーに参加しました。
船に乗るにも、バスに乗るにも、とにかく待ち時間が少なく、スムーズ。
運良く、波も高くなくて、心配していた船酔いもありませんでしたが、酔いやすい人は酔い止め持参をオススメします。

First, we headed to Eiheiji while listening to the fun stories from our bus guide after leaving Fukui Station. It was an easy transfer to a microbus from the parking lot in the temple town to the entrance of Eiheiji.

Inside Eiheiji, we were free to explore at our own pace, which was great. I took my time looking for the ceiling paintings that the bus guide had pointed out.

This was my second visit to Eiheiji, but thanks to the bus guide's explanations, I was able to experience it from a different perspective than my first visit, which was wonderful.

Next, we went to Ichijodani. While it's possible to take a local bus, there aren't many services, and the area that recreates the streets of Ichijodani and the museum are quite far apart, so it was convenient to travel by tour bus.

I think this tour is enjoyable not only for first-time visitors to Fukui but also for those returning after a long time.

福井駅からバスガイドさんの楽しいお話を聞きながらまずは永平寺に。門前町の駐車場から永平寺入り口までもマイクロバスに乗り換えて楽々移動でした。
永平寺内では各自自由に行動できたのでマイペースで回ることができました。私はバスガイドさんに教えてもらった天井絵を探しながらじっくり見ました。
永平寺への参拝は2度目でしたが、バスガイドさんの説明のおかげで初めての時とは違った観点で参拝することができてよかったです。
次は一乗谷へ。路線バスで行くこともできますがあまり本数も多くなく、一乗谷の街並みを再現したエリアと博物館も離れているためツアーバスで移動できて楽でした。
はじめて福井を訪れる人だけでなく、久しぶりに訪れる人にとっても楽しめるツアーだと思います。

I walked through the night in Ingya for about an hour and a bit, and I was able to hear stories about the creatures I encountered along the way. Our guide was Hinata Kimura. She answered the children's questions effortlessly, and I was impressed by her wealth of knowledge. It was fun to talk with her since we are both from Osaka! Meeting the coconut crab was the highlight. Not only did I learn about the creatures, but I also received travel advice for Miyako Island, making it a wonderful memory! Thank you! ☺︎

およそ１時間と少し、夜のインギャーを歩いて、道中出会った生き物たちのお話を聞かせていただきました。担当は、木村ひなたさん。一緒にいた子どもたちの質問にも難なく答えていて、知識が豊富ですごいな〜と感動しました。同じ大阪出身とのことで、お話できて楽しかったです！ヤシガニにも出会えて最高でした。生き物のことだけでなく、宮古島での旅のアドバイスもいただき、素敵な思い出になりました！ありがとうございました☺︎

The full day experience is quite interesting, though most of the cases are only self-guided and if you are not Japanese, there is limited information learned since most of the guided (on the river boat and the bus) are conducted in Japanese. The whole trip is packed with different experiences including a boat trip, water buffalo truck, authentic little towns, beautiful beaches, etc., which were quite satisfactory. The bento for lunch was well prepared as well. Fortunately, I was in a showroom about Taketomi Island with many great displays of local folk items, culture, and a short movie theatre with air conditioning that allowed me to spend the time during the rain learning many things about Taketomi culture. Also, there is English and Chinese explanation as well.

The full day experience is quite interesting though most of the cases are only self-guided and if you are not Japanese, there is limited information learnt since most of the guided (on the river boat and the bus) are conducted in Japanese. The guided device for foreigners had very limited information compared with the length of what the guides said. My guided device seems malfuntioned as it is not working probably in the middle of the trip, which really lessened the information I could learn.

この旅行は探検のフルパックでした。私たちは多くの動物、ココナッツガニやさまざまな種類の昆虫を見ました。個人的には、星空をじっくりと楽しむ時間がもっとあればよかったと思います。ツアーには多くの外国人が参加していて、途中で英語の説明があったのには驚きました。これは日本では非常に助かります。

The trip is full pack of exploration. We saw many animals, including some coconut crabs, different kind of insects. I personally wish there was more time to sit down and appreciate the starry sky.
I was suprised that there were many foreigners join the tour with English explanation along the way, which is very helpful in Japan.

Snorkeling in Miyako Island for the second time! Finally at Shinjo Beach.
The ocean was truly beautiful, and I never expected to swim so close to a sea turtle.
I was taken care of by Yamachan for two consecutive years.
Thank you very much!

二度目の宮古島でのシュノーケル！念願の新城海岸。
本当に海がきれいで、まさかウミガメとあんな近くで一緒に泳げるとは思いませんでした。
二年連続でやまちゃんにお世話になりました。
ありがとうございました！

The open-top double-decker bus has excellent sunlight exposure, so it's advisable to take proper measures against the heat while riding. On the day of our trip, there was a fire ahead on our route, and while the guide was wondering about it, a passenger checked their smartphone and found out there was a fire on the road we were taking, and informed the guide. The guide quickly relayed this to the driver, and we were able to avoid danger. I thought the quick-thinking passenger and the prompt response from the crew were commendable! The stories from the lady guide were also interesting and enjoyable.

屋根の無い二階建てバスは日当たり最高で暑さ対策はしっかりして乗車されると良いです。
当日、行程で行く道の先で火災があり、ガイドさんが何でしょうねぇ、なんて言っていた時に乗客がスマホで火災があり、バスの行く道だと調べてガイドさんに伝えた。ガイドさんはすぐにドライバーに伝え、私たちは難を逃れました。機転の効く乗客とすぐに対応した乗務員はあっぱれ！だと思いました。オバチャンガイドさんの話も面白く良かったです。

The weather was wonderful, and everywhere had stunningly beautiful scenery. Since it was during the Obon holiday, the roads and parking lots were crowded, but our driver was resourceful and managed to take us to all the sights we wanted to see. Additionally, the driver provided detailed explanations about each location, making it a valuable experience that went beyond what we could have done on our own. Thank you very much.

お天気に恵まれて、どこも素晴らしく美しい景色でした。
お盆だったため、道路や駐車場が混雑していましたが、運転手さんが機転を利かせてくださって、希望した名所を全て回ることができました。
また、各名所の詳細を運転手さんが丁寧に説明をしてくださり、自分たちだけで巡る以上の貴重な経験ができたと思います。
ありがとうございました。

The guide's cheerful greeting, starting with the mechanical doll of Enma, followed by easy-to-understand and enjoyable explanations as we explored Hell Valley and the power spot... We had kids with us, but they also had a great time! The starry sky was incredibly beautiful, and I'm glad I was able to participate.

ガイドさんの元気な挨拶、閻魔様のからくり人形から始まり、わかりやすく楽しい説明を受けながら地獄谷、そしてパワースポットへ…
子連れでしたが子供達も楽しんでました！
満点の星空もとっても綺麗で、参加できてよかったです。

It was a sunny break between the rainy days, but it was disappointing that the underwater boat was canceled due to high waves. The guide's explanations, which included local anecdotes, were all in Japanese and very good.

雨続きの日々の合間の晴れでしたが、波が高く水中船は欠航で残念でした。ガイドさんの説明は地元あるあるも交えて全部日本語でとても良かったです。

This is my third time participating. What was great this time was that there were models of aircraft that were not displayed last time. During my previous visit, I asked if there would be a TriStar. This time, I was thrilled to see the TriStar on display.

今回で３回目の参加です。
今回良かったのは、前回では展示されていなかった機種の模型が展示されていた事です。前回参加時にトライスターは無いのでしょうか?とお尋ねしました。
今回、トライスターが展示されていて感激しました。

The weather was wonderful, and when I saw the Milky Way, I couldn't help but shout. I also got to see two blue land crabs, which made me very satisfied. On the way back, I was taken to a spot where I could see the night view of Ishigaki City and the starry sky at the same time, and I was deeply moved.

Thank you, Suzuka and Sebastian.

天気も素晴らしく、天の川が見れた時は、思わず叫んでしまいました。
青いヤシガニも2匹も見れましたし、大満足だったのですが、帰り、高台から石垣市街地の夜景と星空を同時に見られる場所に連れて行って頂き、感動しました。

すずかさん、セバスチャンさん、ありがとうございました。

Thanks to you, I was able to have a fun day exploring. Thank you very much. If it hadn't been for the private taxi tour, I don't think I would have been able to see as much.

おかげさまで1日楽しく回ることが出来ました。ありがとうございました。
もし、貸し切りのタクシー旅じゃなかったら、なかなか回れなかったと思います。

Cape Shakotan is difficult to access without a rental car, so it was a long-awaited trip. The Shakotan Blue was indeed beautiful, and I was drenched in sweat by the time I reached the observation deck, but it was worth the effort. The guide also shared a lot of information, making it an enjoyable journey.

積丹岬はレンタカーなしで行くには、アクセスが悪く、なかなか行けなかったので
待望の旅でした。
やはり積丹ブルーは美しく、展望台までは汗だくになってしまいましたが、頑張って歩いた甲斐がありました。
ガイドさんもいろいろ教えてくださり、楽しい旅でした。

It was chilly at the top of Mount Aso. I thought it would be nice to have an extra layer. Takachiho was hot. I was able to visit Takachiho Shrine during my free time, which made for a truly fulfilling experience. This arrangement was made possible thanks to our guide. Although we encountered a sudden rainstorm along the way, our guide was considerate, and I appreciated their thoughtfulness. Despite being during the Obon holiday period, the schedule was smooth and on time. I hope Takachiho Shrine can be included in the tour. I am grateful to the guide, interpreter, and driver for a comfortable tour.

阿蘇山上は、肌寒かった。織物が一枚あるといいと思った。高千穂は暑かった。自由時間を利用して高千穂神社まで行けて、本当に充実した時間でした。この手配もガイドさんのお陰で実現することができた。また、途中ににわか雷雨が降ったが、ガイドさんが気を使ってくれて、心遣いに感謝した。お盆期間中にもかかわらず定刻運航で、スムーズだった。高千穂神社もツアーに組み込まれたらいいなぁと思いました。快適なツアーは、ガイドさん、通訳さん、運転手さんに感謝です。

As someone who loves airplanes, I visited as part of a social studies field trip. I was able to catch a glimpse of just a small part of the work and specifications that support airplane operations, such as trainees actually riding on life boats, escape slides, and engines. I struggled a bit to make a reservation, as there were no tours available on the day I was aiming for or they were fully booked, but I’m glad I went.

飛行機が好きな私は社会科見学の一環として伺いました。
実際に救命ボートに乗ってる訓練生や脱出用の滑り台、エンジンなど、飛行機運航を裏で支えるお仕事や仕様のほんの一部を垣間見ることができました。
自分が狙っている日に催行がなかったり満員だったりとなかなか予約取るのに苦戦しましたが、行ってよかったと思いました。

It was a very meaningful day with a tour that gathered people from various countries, including China, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States.

The journey to Takachiho, one of Japan's top power spots, where people of different religions traveled together on the same bus, was enjoyable.

Additionally, the detailed care provided by our guide, Mr. Ishi, was wonderful. Thank you very much.

During the bus ride, there were explanations of the destinations in three languages: English, Chinese, and Japanese. At the end, it was mentioned that this tour is organized by a Chinese company and is not very popular among Japanese people, but I completely disagree.

I think it's a fantastic tour that allows you to fully enjoy Takachiho in just one day. I highly recommend participating!

　中国、東南アジア、欧米、日本人　様々な国の方たちが集まるツアーとても有意義な1日でした。
　高千穂という日本国内でも有数のパワースポットに色んな宗教の方が同じバスに乗って巡る旅　楽しかったです。
　そして　ガイドの石さんのきめ細かなご配慮も素晴らしかったです。ありがとうございました。
　バスの中で英語、中国語、日本語の3ヶ国語で訪問先の説明があり、最後にこのツアーが中国の会社の企画ツアーという事もあり、日本の方にはあまり人気がありませんとお話しされていましたが、そんな事は全くありません。
　1日で高千穂を満喫できるとても素晴らしいツアーだと思います。
　是非参加してみて下さい。

We were a bit anxious being the only Japanese people, but the bus was quiet, the schedule was kept, and it was comfortable. The guide was also fluent in Japanese, which was great.

日本人は私達だけで不安でしたが、バス内も静かで時間も守られていて快適でした。ガイドさんも日本語ペラペラでとても良かったです。

I am truly grateful that you kindly agreed to my unreasonable request to pick me up 1 hour and 30 minutes earlier than the scheduled time.

On the day of the trip, while I had a few places in mind to visit, I also asked you to take me wherever you thought was good, and you responded immediately, making it a really enjoyable journey!

The driver assigned to us was not only knowledgeable but also fun to talk to, and he paid attention to even the smallest details. I definitely want to request your services again next time!

I think I may have worn you out with my hectic schedule, but I really had a great time. Thank you very much!

前日に予約時間より1時間30分も前倒してお迎えに来てほしいと言う無茶を快く聞いてくださり本当に感謝でした。
当日は、数箇所は行く所が決まっていましたが、あとはノープランで、行ける所に行って下さいと言うお願いにもすぐにご対応いただき、本当に楽しい旅になりました！

またご担当下さったドライバーさんが知識豊富なのはもちろんのこと、お話も楽しく、細やかなところまで配慮してくださり、また次回もぜひ、ぜひお願いしたいと思いました！

バタバタなスケジュールでお疲れさせてしまったかと思いますが、本当に楽しかったです。ありがとうございました！

I participated in this tour during the afternoon while moving from Otaru to Chitose Airport. I wanted to visit the Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill and the Okurayama Jump Stadium, so I was looking for a way to see them in a short amount of time and found this tour.

The view from the top of the jump stadium was breathtaking, with a steep slope that made me imagine what the athletes must feel when they jump, giving me goosebumps. Although it was not during the snowy season, it reminded me of the excitement of the Olympics.

There are not many stops, but I was very satisfied. The guide accompanied us, and while listening to the audio guide through earphones felt a bit impersonal, I understand that it caters to foreign visitors as well. I would love to visit during the snowy season too.

小樽から千歳空港に移動する合間の午後に参加しました。
羊ヶ丘展望台と大倉山ジャンプ台に行きたかったので、短時間で廻れる方法を探していたらこのツアーを見つけました。
ジャンプ台の上からの景色は足がすくむような急こう配で、選手はどんな思いで飛行するのかと想像するだけで鳥肌が立ちました。雪のない時期でしたが、オリンピックの熱狂が思い出されました。
立ち寄りどころは少ないですが私は大満足でした。ガイドさんが添乗しているのですが、イヤホンで観光ガイドを聞くのが味気ないようですが、外国の方も利用するのでしょうと納得です。
雪のある時期にも行ってみたいです。

It was great because it was just a short trip from the city and the weather was nice. However, I was surprised by how hot it was that day! The tour fit perfectly into the gap before my flight home.

市内から僅かな移動で行けて、天気も良かったので最高でした
が、この日は気温も高く暑くてビックリ‼️
帰りの飛行機までの隙間にピッタリ入る
ツアーは良かったです

The driver was a woman, and she was very kind and attentive. In the morning, she came to pick me up at the hotel with plenty of time to spare. The driving was smooth, and I felt safe the entire time. Overall, it was a wonderful and fulfilling trip thanks to the excellent guide. I'm really glad I made the request.

At first, I hesitated to call a taxi, but given the heat, I decided to book one at the last minute. I even borrowed a charger while in the car. The vehicle was a Serena, which was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. I highly recommend it!

女性のドライバーさんでしたが、とても親切で丁寧でした。
朝も、余裕をもってホテルまで迎えに来て下さいました。
運転も荒くなく、安心して乗れました。
兎に角、ガイドが素晴らしく充実した旅行となりした。
お願いをして本当に良かったです。

最初は、タクシーを頼むことに迷いがありましたが、この暑さもあり思い切って直前で予約しました。
車内では、充電器までお借りしました。
車は、セレナで中も綺麗かつ広くとても快適でした。
本当にオススメです！

This was an amazing experience. The day was well planned, well run and we had some amazing experiences. The guide was attentive, enthusiastic and explained everything about the schedule so we all knew what was happening. The food was really good with a stunning river view. We cannot fault anything - a wonderful day!

I decided to try snorkeling for the first time in Ishigaki Island and joined this Blue Cave snorkeling tour. In a word, it was a hit! It was an absolutely amazing experience!! The guide was very kind, always ensuring our safety while keeping us entertained, which made me feel very secure and turned it into a truly moving experience.

In the clear blue sea, you can encounter Nemo and Dory!! Unfortunately, I didn’t meet Crush, but I look forward to that encounter next time.

They also provided a pleasant pick-up service to the hotel, and the guide's talk in the car was full of humor. They shared many recommendations for local restaurants, so getting the latest information directly from them is definitely better than relying on past SMS posts.

Thank you for the best experience, the handsome guide Ryunosuke!!

初シュノーケリングは石垣島でと思い立ち、この青の洞門シュノーケリングツアーに参加しました。ひとことで言うと当たりです！超最高体験です！！ガイドの方がとても優しくて、楽しませてくれながら、常に安全に気を配ってくれているので、とても安心して参加でき、最高に感動的な体験となりました。
青く澄んだ海の中で、あのニモやドリーに出逢えます！！残念ながら、クラッシュには逢えませんでしたが、次回の遭遇に期待です。
送迎もホテルまで快よくしてもらえて、車内でのガイドさんのトークもユーモアセンスがありありで、オススメ食べ物屋さんなども、沢山教えてくれるので、現地での生の最新情報が貰えるのは、過去の経験で書き込まれたSMS投稿で得るよりもありだと思います。
ガイドのイケメン龍之介くん、最高の体験をありがとう！！

Even small children participated, and thanks to the thorough and attentive instruction, we were able to successfully complete our first canoeing experience! The weather was also favorable, and we are very satisfied! Next year, please sign us up for the full-day course.

小さい子供も参加したのですが、懇切丁寧にレクチャーいただき無事に初カヌーを終えることができました！天候にも恵まれ、とても満足しています！
来年は、１日コースでお願いしますm(_ _)m

It was a tour that circled Ishigaki Island by bus, and the weather was great, making it truly wonderful. We efficiently visited all the points we wanted to see, and it was fun to have songs sung with the sanshin on the bus.

石垣島をバスで一周するツアーでしたが、天気も良くて本当に最高でした。行きたいポイントを効率良く回って頂き、またバスの中では三線で歌も歌っていただき楽しかったです。
