All Reviews for Bus Tours

It was raining heavily, but that added to the charm, and it was great. You can rent bicycles if you pay, and they sell rain gear too, so there were no problems at all!

大雨だったけど、それもまた味が出ていて、良かった、自転車もお金払えば借りれるし、雨具も売ってるし、何も問題ナッシんギュー！

I visited Yakushima for the first time. I joined this tour because I wanted to go to Yakusugi Land. The guide's explanations on the bus helped me understand a lot about Yakushima. I especially recommend it for first-time visitors.

初めて屋久島に来ました。ヤクスギランドに行きたくてこのツアーに参加しました。バス車内でのガイドさんの説明で屋久島のことが良くわかりました。初めては方は特にお勧めします。

There were only two of us Japanese participants, my friend and I, but it was a very smooth and high-quality tour. Most of the participants were punctual with the meeting time when we joined. Both the guide and the driver were friendly and pleasant.

参加した日本人は私とお友人の二人でしたが、非常にスムーズで民度のよいツアーでした。
私たちが参加したときは集合時間もほぼ守れる方ばかりでした。
ガイドさんも運転手さんも気さくで感じが良かったです。

The bus guide's stories, the sound of the sanshin, the songs, and the kamishibai made the bus ride enjoyable. I also learned some hand dances. Just meeting the bus guide was enough to make me very satisfied.
The limestone cave was humid. I was moved to see it up close. It was a mystical space.

バスガイドさんの話や三線の音色、歌に紙芝居とバスの中は楽しかったです。手踊りも教えて頂きました。バスガイドさんに会えただけで十分満足できました。
鍾乳洞は蒸し暑かったです。間近に見ることが出来て感動しました。神秘的な空間でした。

During the journey, you shared various histories of Okinawa, which was very educational. If I have the opportunity to visit Okinawa again, I would like to go with Veltra.

道中、沖縄の様々な歴史を話してくださり、とても勉強になりました。
沖縄に行く機会があったら、またveltraさんにしたいです。

I participated in an island-hopping tour from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island, Yubu Island, and Taketomi Island.

On Iriomote Island, the bus ride was enjoyable thanks to the fun island guide provided by the bus driver. We took a water buffalo cart to Yubu Island, where I strolled around and felt my heart healed by the relaxing nature.

During the mangrove cruise, we happened to catch the beginning of low tide, allowing us to see the mangroves in their natural state, which was very nice. On Taketomi Island, I explored the village and was moved by the feeling of Okinawa.

石垣島から西表島、由布島、竹富島への離島巡りに参加しました
西表島でのバス移動は、ばすのドライバーの楽しい島の案内、水牛車に乗って由布島へ、由布島での散策は、のんびり自然とに触れて心が癒されました。
マングローブ遊覧では、丁度干潮が始まり、マングローブの本来の姿を観ることができ、とても良かったです。竹富島では、集落をみて、沖縄を感じ感動したした。

I was the only Japanese person in the group. I started by visiting Kumamoto Castle, which has changed quite a bit since before the earthquake. At Kusasenri, there were remnants of controlled burns here and there, and the aftermath of the burns might not be very pretty. The basashi (raw horse meat) rice bowl at the drive-in was delicious. The coffee was brewed using a unique method with roasted beans, but I gave up due to the long line.

At the Aso roadside station, you can buy local specialties and vegetables. There is a Kumamon monument at the Aso roadside station, and you can see a statue of Usopp from One Piece at the nearby Aso Station. Unfortunately, the area around the crater is off-limits due to a helicopter accident, so the caldera will have to wait for next time. I am very grateful to the female tour guide and the driver for their hard work, which allowed us to return early, and they also recommended a dinner place. The tour guide's stories were very interesting. She speaks Chinese and Korean as well, so if you prefer only Japanese, you should consider expanding your options, but today's tour is enjoyable enough for Japanese participants as well. Since there is a lot of movement, it is more suited for those who want to see specific points rather than many sights.

日本人は私1人でした。熊本城をはじめにみて、震災前と大分変わっていました。
草千里は野焼きの跡が所々あり、野焼きの跡はあまり綺麗ではないかもしれません。ドライブインで馬刺し丼が美味しかったです。珈琲は焙煎したコーヒーを独自の製法で出していましたが、長蛇の列で断念しました。
道の駅阿蘇では特産品や野菜を買えます。道の駅阿蘇でくまモンのモニュメントが、向かいの阿蘇駅でワンピースのウソップの銅像がみれます。
残念ながら、ヘリコプター事故で火口周辺は立ち入り禁止、カルデラはまた次回。女性添乗員と、ドライバーが最後まで頑張ってくれて早めに帰ることができ、夕食のお店も教えてくれて大変感謝です。添乗員さんのお話がとても面白かったです。中国語、韓国語も喋るので、日本語だけを希望する場合は選択肢を拡げるべきですが、今日のツアーは日本人にも充分楽しめます。移動が多いので、数見たいではなく、ピンポイントで見たい人向けです。

It was an alarm-level heavy snowfall for several consecutive days, but there was also a certain warmth to the dazzling snow. The scenery was truly wonderful. I was able to enjoy a delicious local lunch and was very satisfied. However, waiting for the bus to the observation deck took some time. There were many shops in Takayama, and I was able to enjoy myself without any prior research.

警報級の連日の豪雪でしたが、どことなく温かさも感じる最高な眩しい積雪でした。
その景観はとても素晴らしかったです。
ご当地昼食も美味しく満足に頂けました。
あと、展望台へのバス待ちがロス時間でした。
高山もお店多く下調べなくとも楽しめました。

There was one Japanese person, and the rest were from various countries.

The Kamado Hell and Umi Hell in Beppu are impressive onsens that you can't enter, especially for first-timers. The pudding and onsen eggs at Kamado Hell are delicious.

At the African Safari, the animals were just lounging around, so it wasn't very thrilling.

In Yufuin, I enjoyed walking around and eating, trying the grilled shiitake mushrooms, fried chicken, and croquettes recommended by the guide, which were exquisite. It seems they only accept cash.

After soaking in the onsen, my skin became smooth.

Thank you for a wonderful day!

日本人1人の、あとは多国籍でした。
別府のかまど地獄と海地獄ははじめての人には迫力のある入ることの出来ないおんせんです。かまど地獄のプリンと温泉たまごが美味しいです。
アフリカンサファリは動物たちがもうのんびりしちゃって迫力なかったです。
由布院は食べ歩きで、ガイドさんに教えて貰った椎茸焼きと唐揚げ、コロッケを食べ、絶品でした。現金のみの対応のようです。
温泉に入り、お肌スベスベになりました。
1日ありがとうございました。

The Great Kannon of Shodoshima and Kankakei were not necessary. The Great Kannon was too religious for my taste. I was disappointed that I couldn't have a proper lunch at Kankakei. There was a restaurant inside the Twenty-Four Eyes Movie Village, which would have been better. It was a shame that I passed by local shops I wanted to visit.

小豆島大観音、寒霞渓は　無くてもよかった。
大観音は宗教色が強過ぎて好みではなかった。
寒霞渓で昼食らしいものは食べられずガッカリでした。二十四瞳映画村の中にレストランがあったので、そちらが良かった。
他に寄ってみたい地元産の店舗は素通りだったのは残念でした。

I was taken to a place that is quite difficult to go to alone, and I had a valuable experience. However, the guide's rapid-fire talking was exhausting. There were many inbound foreign tourists on the tour, and the guide spoke a lot in English, but the pronunciation wasn't very clear, which was a bit concerning. Overall, the tour itself was good.

なかなか１人では行けない場所に連れて行ってもらい、貴重な体験が出来ました。
ただ、ガイドの人が弾丸トークで疲れました。ツアー客がインバウンドの外国人が多くて、英語でたくさん話していたのですが、発音がきれいでなくて、それも気になりました。
ツアー自体は良かったです。

The guide explained the same thing in three languages: Japanese, English, and Chinese. I was able to learn an efficient way to get around Shirakawa-go.

ガイドの方が同じことを日本語、英語、中国語の３か国語で説明してくれます。
白川郷の効率的な周り方教えてもらえました。

On the second day of my first solo trip, I had reserved this bus, and the seats were fairly spacious and comfortable. The bus guide was cheerful and spoke clearly, which made the experience very pleasant. The driver also greeted us every time, which was really nice!

初めての一人旅で2日目にこのバスを予約していたのですが、席もある程度広く居心地がよかったです。バスガイドさんも明るくハキハキとお話される方でとても心地よかったです。運転手さんも毎回声をかけてくれてとても良かったです！

It was an efficiently packed tour for the whole day. The photo is a commemorative shot with a water buffalo on Taketomi Island. It became a wonderful memory.

1日盛りだくさんのツアーで効率的に回れました。写真は竹富島での水牛さんとの記念撮影。良い思い出となりました。

The tour content was excellent. The guide, Ms. Li, was a wonderful person, and thanks to her, it was a fun trip! I participated as a Japanese person, and there was also Japanese interpretation available. There were a few other Japanese participants as well! I highly recommend it!

ツアーの内容も最高でした
ガイドのリさんがすごく素敵な方で
ガイドさんのおかげで楽しい旅行になりました！
日本人で参加しましたが日本語通訳もあり
数名他にも日本人もいました！
すごくおすすめです！

I wanted to go to the Dinosaur Museum, so I did some research and signed up for this bus tour. When you book the bus tour, tickets to the Dinosaur Museum are automatically included, which was convenient as I didn't have to arrange anything myself. It was great to have a fun time with the guidance of the bus tour guide. Since I heard that the Great Buddha of Echizen can't be seen during the winter season, I thought it might have been nice to extend our stay at the Dinosaur Museum.

恐竜博物館に行きたかったので、色々調べてこちらのバスツアーを申し込みました。
バスツアーを申し込むと自動で恐竜博物館のチケットもついてくるので、自分で手配する手間がなく便利でした。
バスガイドさんの案内で楽しく過ごせて良かったです。
越前大仏は冬の時期、五重塔がみれないということだったので、恐竜博物館の滞在時間を延ばしてもらってもよかったかな？と思います。

Comments from a foreign traveler on a solo trip.
This was my first time participating in a day tour within Japan.

Since most of the participants were foreigners, the guide provided clear explanations in both Japanese and English without any breaks, covering everything from highlights to food, as well as important notes. There were also some interesting stories sprinkled in, making the otherwise dull travel time enjoyable. Thank you very much.

The female driver was also extremely safe, which was a relief. Those prone to motion sickness will be just fine.

Winter is certainly beautiful, but I believe summer will be lovely as well. I hope to come back someday.

一人旅の外国人からのコメント。
人生初めて日本国内で日帰りツアーに参加。

外国人は殆どのため、ガイドの方は休みなくずっと日本語と英語両方わかりやすく説明してくれました、見どころから食べものまで、注意事項などなど、ちょこちょこと面白い話も出てくる、つまらない移動時間は楽しく過ごしました、誠にありがとうございました。

女性の運転手さんも、超安全運転で助かります。車酔い人も全然ok。

冬はもちろん綺麗ですが、夏場もきっと綺麗だと思います。いつか、また来たいです。

The weather was great, and I had a very enjoyable time. The guide's explanations were easy to understand and interesting. The glass-bottom boat allowed us to see calm seas and crystal-clear water, where we encountered many fish. I won't forget the color of the ocean. It was a wonderful experience.

お天気にも恵まれ、とても楽しい時間でした。ガイドさんの説明も分かりやすく、面白かったです。グラスボートは海も穏やかで水も透き通っていてたくさんの魚たちに出会えました。海の色は忘れられません。とても素敵な体験でした。

Personally, I felt that the time spent at the Dinosaur Museum was a bit insufficient, but I think this tour is perfect for those who have other plans or are considering sightseeing in various areas.

Fukui Station, including the rotary and the surrounding area, is very clean and well-organized, making it easy to find the meeting place. When the bus arrives, the guide will confirm your reservation, so you need to show your voucher and follow their instructions for seating. The number of participants this time was around 5 or 6 groups of two on a Saturday in mid-February. The bus seemed new, and both the exterior and the seats were very clean. The seats can recline as well.

Once the bus departs on time, the guide greets everyone and shares various stories about Fukui. The guide for this trip was very skilled at storytelling, making the travel time informative and enjoyable. They provide information about the highlights of each sightseeing spot in advance, and you also receive a flyer with the meeting place, time, and emergency contact information, which is reassuring for the free time after the tour.

The Dinosaur Museum is a facility that can be enjoyed by both adults and children. Since there isn't enough time to thoroughly view each exhibit, I recommend identifying the displays you want to see before arrival and ensuring you have time for souvenirs as well. Daishizan Seidaiji (Echizen Great Buddha) is overwhelming in size and number, from the building to the Buddha itself. It is a tourist spot that has only recently started to gain fame, and it is somewhat difficult to reach without a car, but the sightseeing time was just right.

Both the Dinosaur Museum and Daishizan Seidaiji are great places for taking wonderful photos, which is another positive point.

If you were to travel around using trains or other buses, it would take a lot of time and cost, so I believe this tour allows you to efficiently explore Fukui. Additionally, the bus was comfortable, and since you can leave your luggage on the bus while sightseeing, it made the experience easy and enjoyable.

個人的には恐竜博物館での滞在時間が物足りなく感じましたが、このほかに予定がある方や多方面に観光を考えてる型にはぴったりのツアーだと思います。

福井駅はロータリー含め駅周辺が大変綺麗で整頓されているため、集合場所もすぐに分かります。
バスが到着するとガイドさんから予約の確認をされるのでバウチャーを表示し、席を指定されるので指示に従って乗車します。
今回参加人数は2月中旬土曜で、2名組のお客さんが自分含め5、6組でした。
バスは新しいようで、外観も座面もとても綺麗です。リクライニングもできます。
定刻通りバス出発すると、ガイドさんから挨拶と福井について色んなジャンルの話をしてくださいます。今回担当だったガイドさんはお話がとても上手で、移動時間で福井に詳しくなれる有意義な内容でした。
目的地ごと観光先の見所を事前に教えてくれる上、集合場所と時間、緊急連絡先の載ったチラシも頂けるので解散後の自由行動時間内も安心でした。
恐竜博物館は大人も子供も楽しめる施設です。じっくり一つ一つの展示を見るには時間が足りないので、見ておきたい展示がある場合は到着前までに目処をつけておき、お土産の時間も確保しておくことをお勧めします。
大師山清大寺（越前大仏）は建物から大仏まで大きさと数の規模に圧倒されます。近年ようやく有名になりつつある観光地で、車がないとなかなか来れない場所であるのと観光時間もちょうど良い内容でした。
恐竜博物館も大師山清大寺も素敵な写真がたくさん撮れるのも良いポイントでした。

自分で電車や他のバスを利用して回るとなると時間もコストもかなりかかってしまうため、こちらのツアーはかなり効率よく福井を回ることができるんじゃないかと思います。
また、バス内は快適で、荷物もバスに置いて観光ができるため観光も楽々快適でした。

I enjoyed it as expected, but there was an unpleasant experience when boarding. Although the seats were supposed to be assigned, the bus company didn't know the seat numbers, which caused some confusion. I only received an email stating that the seats were assigned without any prior notification of the seat numbers. I would appreciate it if this could be clarified in advance next time.

期待通り楽しめましたが、乗車の際席が決まっているはずなのに、バス会社の方では番号がわからないとかで揉めてしまい、不愉快な思いをしました。事前にこちらにも座席番号の連絡もなく座席が決まったとのメールのみでしたので、事前にきちんとわかるようにしていただきたいと思います。

The weather was great, and I had a lot of fun. The islands had their own unique characteristics, and the rural feel was also very appealing.

It would be amazing to see the Iriomote cat.

天気に恵まれてとても楽しかったです
その島々の特徴があり田舎感がまた魅力がありました


イリオモテヤマネコが見れたら最高です

This time we had a Nepali guide. He was very kind and actively engaged with us Japanese tourists, creating an atmosphere where we felt comfortable asking questions. The explanations during the car ride were mainly in English and Chinese, but he also conveyed important points in Japanese, so we had a completely enjoyable day without any difficulties. Thank you very much.

今回はネパール人のガイドさんでした。
親切な方で、日本人にも積極的にお声がけくださり、こちらからも質問等しやすい雰囲気でした。
車中での説明は英語、中国語がメインのようでしたが、大切なポイントは日本語でも伝えてくださったので全く不自由なく楽しい１日になりました。ありがとうございました。

The beaches of Taketomi Island are so beautiful that they seem unreal. The bus guide on Iriomote Island was interesting and great!

竹富島のビーチがこの世のものとは思えないほどキレイ。西表島のバスガイドさん、話が面白く良かったです！

It was very nice to cross to Yufu Island by water buffalo cart. The water buffalo were cute, and the explanations were easy to understand. It was a bit disappointing that there were few flowers since it wasn't the season for them, but I was able to take my time exploring places like the butterfly house. I think it would have been even better if I could have done some sightseeing on Iriomote Island as well.

水牛車で由布島へ渡るのがとても良かったです。
水牛も可愛いし、説明も分かりやすかったです。
由布島も季節ではなかったので花が少なかったのは残念でしたが、蝶々のハウスなどゆっくり見学する事が出来ました。
西表島の観光もできればもっとよかったと思いました。

The guide advised that if you want to have a meal at the Churaumi Aquarium within a limited time, it's more efficient to buy food from the shop rather than entering a restaurant. We enjoyed our meal on a bench before the aquarium tour and the dolphin show, and even with two and a half hours of sightseeing, we had plenty of fun. The view of Kouri Island was beautiful. It was a relief for me, as someone who doesn't drive, since it's a bit difficult to get to.

ガイドさんが限られた時間内で美ら海水族館で食事をとるならレストランに入るより売店で食べ物を購入した方が効率的とアドバイスして下さいました。
美ら海水族館の館内見学、イルカショー見学の前にベンチで食事、その後イルカショー見学で2時間半の見学時間でも充分楽しめました。古宇利島の景色は素敵でした。行きにくい場所なので車を運転しない私に有り難かったです

The bus guide shared enjoyable stories about Hokkaido, making the travel time both to and from the destination fun. At Asahiyama Zoo, we were blessed with good weather and had a great time walking slowly up the snowy slopes. I was especially looking forward to the penguin walk, and their adorable appearance did not disappoint. I was surprised by the unexpected size and behavior of the hippos (laughs). It was also a lot of fun to be so close to the animals, including the spotted seal, polar bears, and the muscular arms of the chimpanzees.

バスガイドさんは北海道の話しを楽しくお話ししてくれて往復共に楽しい移動時間でした。旭山動物園は天候にも恵まれ雪の坂道を焦らず歩きながら楽しい時間を過ごせました。楽しみにしていたペンギンの散歩も可愛らしい姿が見れました。予想外のカバの大きさや行動にびっくり（笑）他にもごまふアザラシやしろくまやチンパンジーの筋肉質な腕など動物との距離が近くてとても楽しかったです。

The guide was very polite and easy to understand. They explained everything using both English and Japanese. There was also a good amount of freedom at each location, and I was able to enjoy myself while listening to the explanations. There was plenty of time, and I felt it was a great experience to participate.

とても丁寧で分かりやすい対応のガイドさんでした。英語と日本語の両方を使い、説明してくれました。一つ一つの場所での自由さもあり、説明を聞きながらもしっかり楽しめました。時間も余裕があり、参加して良かったと思いました。

This tour, departing from Nagoya Station and lasting about 11 hours, allowed us to thoroughly enjoy winter in Gujo Hachiman, Hida Takayama, and Shirakawa-go. Before arriving at each destination, our guide provided suggestions on how to spend our time at each location, which was very helpful.

Additionally, at some of the stops, there was an option for those who wished to explore with the guide, allowing us to enjoy a stroll while listening to their explanations.

After departing from Nagoya, we encountered an accident that caused a section of the highway to be closed, so we had to take local roads for part of the journey, resulting in longer travel time than planned. However, the guide's suggestion to redistribute the sightseeing time at each location was optimal, allowing us to thoroughly explore all the destinations and have a fantastic time.

I am very grateful for their flexible responses. Thanks to the guide and the driver, we were able to spend a very meaningful day and create wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

名古屋駅発着で約11時間のツアーで、
冬の郡上八幡、飛騨高山、白川郷を大満喫できる内容でした。
各訪問地到着前にバス車内にてガイドさんが、各訪問地での過ごし方のご提案をしてくださり、とても参考になりました。
また、一部の訪問地では、希望者はガイドさんと一緒に散策をさせていただくことができる選択肢があり、ガイドさんのご説明を聞きながら、散策を楽しむことができました。
名古屋出発後、郡上八幡までの道中、高速道路が通行止めになる事故があったために一部区間において一般道での通行になり、
予定よりも移動時間を要しましたが、
ガイドさんの各訪問地観光時間の再配分時間のご提案が最適で、全ての訪問地をしっかりと観光ができ、大満喫できました。
臨機応変なご対応に大変感謝しています。
ガイドさんと、ドライバーさんのおかげで、とても有意義な一日を過ごすことができ、良い思い出を作ることができました。
どうもありがとうございました。

You can visit the Great Buddha of Kamakura, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, and Enoshima. You can also visit famous locations that were featured in Slam Dunk via the Enoshima Electric Railway. Since this tour departs from Tokyo, I highly recommend it for those who have never been to Kamakura. We were able to efficiently see all the highlights. The tour was conducted in English, and I can’t thank our guide Alex enough for his hospitality. He was a great guide.

鎌倉大仏＋鶴岡八幡宮＋江ノ島を周れる。江の島電車でスラムダンクの舞台にもなった有名場所も訪れられる。東京から出発しているので鎌倉に行ったことない方は是非お勧めしたい。効率的に見所を周れた。英語での催行ツアーになったが、ガイドのAlexのホスピタリティには感謝しかない。良いガイドだった。

We were able to efficiently visit three islands, and the explanations made it a fulfilling day. The water buffalo was also working hard, and I felt like cheering for it. Keep it up!

手際よく3島巡れて説明もしてくれて充実した一日でした
水牛も頑張ってて応援したくなります
がんばってー
