All Reviews for Bus Tours

We departed from Sapporo, but the expressway was closed due to an accident, causing a significant delay in our start. However, thanks to the driver's quick thinking and experience, along with the guide's adjustments, it turned into a wonderfully memorable day.

To ensure we returned on schedule, they included a route with beautiful scenery in place of the places we couldn't visit.

Mr. Ito, who safely delivered everyone without any accidents, was fantastic. Catherine, who attended to the multinational participants, was also wonderful.

Thank you very much! ♪

札幌を出発してすぐ高速道路が事故で通行止めになりスタートが大幅に遅れたため、行程が変更になったのですが、運転手さんの機転と経験、ガイドさんの調整によって、素晴らしく大変思い出深い1日になりました。
当初予定通りに帰着できるように
見れなかった所の代わりに素敵な景色の行程を挟んでくださいました。

事故なく安全に皆を送り届けてくださったMR.ITOは素晴らしい。
また多国籍の参加者を相手にアテンドされたキャサリンさんも素晴らしい。

ありがとうございました♪

I participated in a bus tour alone for the first time, and thanks to the tour guide and the driver, it turned out to be a truly fulfilling and enjoyable day! I wasn't confident about visiting four places on my own, so I'm glad I joined the bus tour! There were many foreign participants as well, so the tour guide's explanations in both Japanese and English were fantastic and enjoyable to listen to! I want to join another bus tour again.

It's a good idea to order lunch. The yudofu was delicious!

初めてバスツアーに一人で参加しましたが、添乗員の方と運転手さんのおかげでホントに充実した楽しい一日になりました！
一人では4ヶ所行く自信がなかったのでバスツアーに参加してよかったです！
外国人の方もたくさん参加されていたので添乗員さんの日本語と英語での
ガイドがスゴくて聞いてて楽しかったです！
またバスツアーに参加したいです。

昼食は頼んだほうがいいですよ。湯豆腐美味しかった！

I walked more than I expected, and with the temperature exceeding 30 degrees on the day, I was very tired. However, Maria's bright and fun explanations, along with her gentle demeanor, were really great. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate in a different course in the future. For those who will be participating, I recommend being prepared for more walking than you might imagine, as there are many ups and downs, and since the lingering heat can be intense, make sure to stay hydrated and wear comfortable shoes.

思った以上に歩くのと、当日の気温が30度越えでとても疲れましたが、マリアさんの明るく、楽しい説明と優しい感じがとても良かったです。
機会があれば、今後は違うコースに参加したいと思います。
これから参加される方は、想像以上に歩くのと、上り下りの道が多く、残暑厳しいので水分補給と歩き慣れた靴で参加されるのを、お勧めします。

The multilingual guide was wonderful.
The weather was decent. A scorching summer in Hokkaido.

Since I was deeply impressed by the Furano course I took previously, the combination of mountain roads, rocky mountains, lakes, and the sea felt monotonous.
The bear ranch had both Noboribetsu and Showa Shinzan, and I visited the latter. The bears screaming from their cages were tough for me to handle.

The price is justified.
The Furano course was just too good.

The guide was truly a wonderful person.

3カ国語ガイドさんが素敵でした。
天気はまずまず。猛暑の北海道。

以前回った富良野コースが大感動だっただけに、山道と岩山と湖、海…の組み合わせは、単調に思えました。
クマ牧場は登別と昭和新山があって、行ったのは後者。数頭の檻の中から叫ぶ熊は、私には酷でした。

料金には見合ってます。
富良野コースが良すぎるのです。

ガイドさん、本当に素敵な方でした。

As we approached the Shakotan Peninsula, the weather suddenly turned ominous with thunderstorms. I believe it would have been the most beautiful scenery on a clear day. It was truly disappointing.
In the midst of this, I was grateful for the tour guide's thoughtful care for everyone.
I would like to join again on a sunny day next time.

積丹半島が近づくと突然雲行きが怪しくなり、雷雨。晴天であれば最高の美しい景観だったと思います。本当に残念でした。
そんな中、添乗員さんは全員に細やかに気づかってくださりありがたかったです。
今度は晴天の時に参加したいです。

I booked a Kyoto tour at my daughter's request. We opted for a meal at Kiyomizu-dera, but the portion was larger than I expected, so I think it's better to skip the meal if you want to try various foods. Both the tour guide and the driver were really nice, and we had a wonderful day! Thank you very much.

娘の希望で京都ツアーを申し込みました。
清水寺で食事付きにしましたが思ったより量が多かったのでいろいろ食べ歩きしたい方はなしの方が良いと思います。
添乗員の方も運転手の方も凄く良い方で、楽しい１日を過ごすことができました！
ありがとうございました。

This is a tour that takes you from Sapporo to Furano and Biei, running from morning until night. It's a bit intense, but I was very satisfied with the included lunch. The flower fields were filled with a variety of colorful flowers and were very beautiful. The hamburger lunch included in the tour was freshly made and delicious. The pudding at the Blue Pond is highly recommended.

朝から夜まで、札幌から富良野、美瑛を巡るツアーです。ハードですが、ランチ付きで大満足でした。
お花畑は、色とりどりのお花が咲いており、とても綺麗でした。
ツアーに含まれる、ハンバーグランチが出来たてで美味しかったです。
青い池のプリンはおすすめです。

Although there are local buses on Yakushima, their frequency is very low, making it impossible to get around without a rental car in a short amount of time. However, this tour was great because it covered hard-to-reach attractions on the island without a car. I was able to make the most of my day before my evening flight to Kagoshima. The guide shared many interesting insights that I wouldn't have known if I had explored on my own, making it both enjoyable and informative. When I participated, some roads were closed due to a typhoon, so we couldn't circle the island, but we were able to reach areas like the western forest road, which had been inaccessible just days before, and I got to see a group of Yakuzaru monkeys. The guide also took us on a 50-minute walk through Yakusugi Land, where the paths are well-maintained and you can see many cedar trees, which might be better than Shiratani Unsuikyo if you're short on time (there's a discount if you visit both Shiratani Unsuikyo and Yakusugi Land, so be sure to keep the ticket from the first one you visit).

For those returning to Kagoshima on the evening flight, if you plan to be dropped off at the airport after the tour, you might find yourself with some awkward downtime before your flight (the airport is small and lacks places to pass the time). However, the hotel right in front of the airport has a hot spring that accepts day-use visitors, so I recommend spending your last moments relaxing in the bath. It's clean and beautiful, and there’s a space to rest, similar to a super sento.

屋久島内は路線バスがあるものの本数がとても少なく、レンタカー無しで短時間であちこちを回るのは不可能なのですが、このツアーは島内の車無しでは回りにくい名所をポイントを抑えて回ってくれるのがとても良かったです。夜の鹿児島行の飛行機まで１日をとても有効に使えました。ガイドさんのお話も自分だけで回っていたらわからないようなことがたくさんで楽しくためになりました。自分が参加したときは台風の影響で一部道が通れず、島を一周というわけにはいかなかったのですが、数日前までは行けなかったらしい西部林道のあたりまで行くことができて、ヤクザルの群れも見ることができました。ガイドさんに案内されて50分ほどヤクスギランド内も歩きましたが、歩道が整備されてたくさんの杉の木が見られるので短時間の場合は白谷雲水峡よりも良いかもしれないと思います（白谷雲水峡とヤクスギランドは両方行くと割引があるので先に行った方の半券はなくさないように持っていってください）。
夜の飛行機で鹿児島に帰る方は、ツアー後空港で降ろしてもらう予定にしていると、飛行機の時間まで中途半端な時間ができてしまうのですが（空港は狭くて待ち時間を潰せるような場所がない）、空港目の前のホテルの温泉が日帰り入浴を受け入れているので最後にお風呂で過ごすのがおすすめです。清潔感があって綺麗ですし、スーパー銭湯的な感じで休憩できるスペースもありました。

It was my first time participating in a day trip bus tour, and I had a great time! Thank you very much. The scenery in Takayama and Shirakawa-go was truly wonderful. I would love to join again if I have the chance.

日帰りバスツアーに参加するのは初めてでしたが、大変楽しかったです！ありがとうございました。
なんといっても、高山も白川郷も素敵な風景でした。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

I was concerned about being a lunch refugee, so having lunch included was very helpful, and I enjoyed it deliciously♪

Everything in Iriomote and Yufu Island was fresh, and the guidance was great. I would like to go on the same course again.

Thank you! ^ ^

昼食難民が気になったので、ランチ付きはとても助かりましたし、美味しく頂きました♪

西表も由布島も全てが新鮮で案内も良く、また同じコースで行きたいと思いました。

ありがとうございます^ ^

The guide's talk was very easy to listen to, filled with information I wanted to know, and it was a comfortable bus trip. I thoroughly enjoyed the zoo and was very satisfied.

ガイドさんのお話もとても聞きやすく、知りたい情報満載で、快適なバスの旅でした。動物園を満喫できて大満足です。

The day I participated, the weather was unfortunately bad, but I was able to visit all the sightseeing spots I wanted to and had an efficient tour. There were many participants who came alone as well. I was able to relax while listening to the audio guide. The lunch was delicious too. Since the weather was too bad, I would like to go again when it's sunny!

参加した日はあいにくのお天気でしたが行ってみたかった観光名地を全て回れて効率良い観光が出来ました。一人参加の方も多かったです。音声ガイドを聴きながらのんびり出来ました。お昼ごはんも美味しかったです。天気が悪すぎたので今度また晴れている時に行きたいです！

I signed up for this tour because I wanted to experience the water buffalo and see the mangroves! It ended in the early afternoon, so even though it was the last day, I was able to enjoy it until the very end! The mangrove tour was fun, and the guide's explanations were easy to understand, allowing us to see various plants. We crossed to Yubu Island by water buffalo, where we could touch them and take photos! We even got to hear folk songs sung by the water buffalo, which created a fantastic atmosphere. Visiting Iriomote Island and Yubu Island made this tour really great! Since it was sunny, I was able to take lots of beautiful photos.

水牛体験とマングローブが見たくてこのツアーを申し込みました！お昼過ぎに終わるので最終日だったのですが最後の最後まで遊べて充実できました！マングローブツアーはガイドの方の説明がわかりやすくいろんな植物が見れた楽しかったです。由布島まで水牛で渡り触って写真も撮れました！水牛の中で民謡を歌ってもらい雰囲気も最高でした。西表島と由布島に行けてこのツアーはすごくよかったです！
晴れてたので素敵な写真もいっぱい撮れました。

On the last day of my two-night, three-day trip to Ishigaki, I chose a morning-only plan. We saw the mangroves from the boat, and it was very mystical. The guide explained everything clearly, which made it easy to understand. The boat was designed so that we could see the mangroves up close from both sides, making for a beautiful view.

On the way to Yubu, we rode on a water buffalo cart. On the way there, a young lady played the shamisen and sang, which really gave us a taste of Okinawa. The buffalo was also adorable. It was great that we could take free photos with the water buffalo at Yubu.

It was a quick half-day, so I thought I would like to do a full day of sightseeing next time. It was a truly wonderful experience!

石垣旅行二泊三日の最終日に行きました！！
午前のみのプランを選びました。船からマングローブを見たのですが、とても神秘的でした。ガイドさんが一つ一つ説明してくれてわかりやすかったです。船も両方の座席からマングローブが近くで見れるようにしてくれていたので綺麗に見えました。
由布に向かう際、水牛車に乗りました。行きはお姉さんが三味線を弾き語りしてくれて、沖縄感を感じさせられました。牛も可愛かったです。由布で無料で水牛と写真が撮れるところも良かったです。
あっという間の半日だったので、次回は一日中観光したいと思いました。
とても素敵な体験ができました！！

I had a great time and returned safely⭐︎ The bus guide and the driver were both calm, and I would like to use this travel company again.

無事楽しんで帰れました⭐︎バスガイドさんもドライバーさんも穏やかで、また利用したいと思う旅行会社です

In about an hour, you can receive a local guide that includes the history and geography centered around the buildings along the route. Since there are no stops at photo points, those who want to take pictures might be disappointed. It started to rain along the way, and the canopy was put up, blocking the view above, but since it was after Abeno Harukas, it didn't have much impact overall. I was able to see the manual setup of the canopy, so it might have been a nice experience.

１時間で概ね、沿道の建物を中心に歴史や地形なども含め、地域のガイドを受けられます
撮影ポイントなどで停車するわけではないので、写真を撮りたいと思っている方には、不満かもしれません
途中で雨になり、天井に幌がかかり、上空の展望が望めなくなりましたが、あべのハルカス以降であったので、とりあえず、ほぼ影響なしで終えることが出来ました
手動で幌をかけるところを見れましたので、いい体験だったかもしれません

The weather was favorable, making for a comfortable trip. On September 7th, it was quite warm for Hokkaido, and we needed the curtains while traveling on the highway by bus.

The guide made it easy to understand by showing a large paper with "Meeting Time: 10:30 AM" before we got off the bus for sightseeing. However, there were two foreign tourists who seemed to have no sense of time and were always late, which was a bit troublesome. Because of this, we arrived late at Cape Kamui on the Shakotan Peninsula, and the public restroom there closed at 4 PM, so it was closed when we returned. The guide advised us to "go to the restroom first," so it was fine.

On the way back, it was probably the same everywhere in Japan, but it was a bit disappointing that the chatter from the group of older women in the back was quite loud, even though we were somewhat tired.

天気に恵まれ、快適な旅でした。9月7日で北海道にしては暑い気候で、バスの高速道路走行中はカーテンが必要でした。

ガイドが、バスを出て観光する前に大きな紙に「集合時間　10時30分」などと見せてくれるので分かりやすかったです。ただ、外国人の二人組が時間感覚がないようでいつも遅れてくるのが困りました。そのせいで、積丹半島神威岬に着くのが遅れ、そこにある公衆トイレが16時に閉鎖されるので、帰りには閉まっていました。ガイドが「先にトイレに行ってください」どアドバイスをしてくれたので大丈夫でした。

帰りには日本中どこでもそうでしょうが、多少疲れているのに、後ろがオバサングループのおしゃべりがうるさかったのが残念でした。

I really wanted to visit Takachiho Gorge within my limited schedule, so I joined this tour. I was initially filled with anxiety as I was the only one among the inbound travelers, but the guide was kind and always considerate, allowing me to enjoy the tour without feeling isolated. The explanations of the sightseeing spots were also very well done and easy to understand. I definitely want to join this guide's tour again when I come to Fukuoka. However, one thing I found a bit unclear was the location for purchasing souvenirs; it would have been better if it had been noted in the itinerary.

限られた日程で、どうしても高千穂峡に行きたい！とこちらのツアーに参加しました。インバウンドの方達の中にポツンと1人だけで、最初は不安でいっぱいだったのですが、ガイドさんが親切で常に気遣ってくれたので、疎外感を感じることなくツアーを楽しむ事が出来ました。また、観光名所の説明もとても上手で分かり易かったです。また福岡に来た時は是非、今回のガイドさんのツアーに参加したいと思いました。ただひとつだけ、お土産を購入できる場所が口頭では分かりづらかったので、日程表に記載があればもっと良かったと思います。

Experience Report
The weather was nice, and it was really great.
It's important to confirm the bus schedule to the port on-site.
It's a good idea to prepare rain gear in case of sudden downpours.

体験談
天気も良く、すごくよかったです。
帰りの港までのバス便は現地でしっかり確認が必要です。
突然のスコールに備えて雨具は準備しておいた方がいいです。

I apologize for the inconvenience caused when my partner made a mistake with the meeting time during the time-sensitive tour around the many attractions near Mount Aso in Kyushu. Wendy, the crew member, and the driver were very kind to us. I am grateful for that. The other tour participants were warm-hearted, making it a very enjoyable trip. Wendy personally spoke to me in Japanese after explaining everything in Chinese on the bus. She is a kind, attentive, and personable tour guide, and I would recommend her 100% to others.

九州阿蘇山の周辺の沢山の名所を、一日で回る、時間厳守のツアーの中、うちのパートナーが待ち合わせ時間を間違えてしまいご迷惑をおかけしました。乗務員のウェンディさんと運転手さんから、とても良くしていただきました。感謝しています。一緒になったツアーのお客様たちに暖かい人が多くて、とても楽しい旅になりました。ウェンディさんは、一人だけバスの中で日本人の私にも、全てのガイドを中国語で説明した後に、個人的に話してくださいました。親切で丁寧で人情のあるツアーガイドで、他の方にも100%お勧めします

まず最初に、ツアーガイドを見つけることができたのは出発の10分前で、遅いと思います。次に、バスの中で強い匂いの食べ物を食べないように、ツアーグループ全体に警告してください！匂いに敏感な人もいます。

ツアー自体はまあまあでした。同じ目的地に戻る場合は、別のツアー会社を探すと思います。

First off, I couldn't locate the tour guide until 10min prior which I think is late. Second, please warn the entire tour group not to consume strong odor food in the bus! Some people are sensitive to smell.

The tour itself was meh. If I go back to the same destination I'd look for a different tour agency.

I made a reservation and participated a week ago. Since it was a weekday, there weren't many other participants, and I was able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace.

The walking time on Yufu Island was about an hour, with no elevation changes, which was just right. I participated with my husband, who is not good at group activities, but the guides on the boat, the bus, and the water buffalo were all very skilled at storytelling, so we were never bored and had a great time.

On the day we participated, the ferry from Ishigaki to Iriomote Island offered an upgrade for 500 yen, allowing us to enjoy the view from the second floor and see the crew operating the vessel, which was very satisfying.

Next time I come, I would like to participate in other tours as well.

一週間前に予約して参加しました。平日でしたので他の参加者の方も多くなくゆったり楽しめました。
歩くのは由布島の自由時間1時間程度で、高低差もなくちょうど良かったです。
集団での行動が苦手な旦那と参加していましたが、船のガイドさんやバスのガイドさん、水牛のガイドさん皆さんお話が上手で全く飽きることなく楽しめました。

私たちの参加した日は、石垣〜西表島の船が500円で席をグレードアップできるタイプで、2階からの景色や操縦しているクルーの方を見ることもできとても満足です。

次回来た際は他のツアーにも参加してみたいと思います。

On my first trip to Hokkaido, I participated in day trip bus tours to Showa Shinzan, Lake Toya, Lake Shikotsu, and more. Hokkaido is vast, and I was worried about driving myself and the time it would take, but by joining the tour, I was able to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots without the stress of driving.

初めての北海道旅行、昭和新山、洞爺湖、支笏湖、他の日帰りバスツアーに参加させてもらいました。広い北海道、自分達の運転では不安もあり時間もかかりそうだったのですが、ツアーに参加することで、運転で神経を使うことなく効率よく観光地を回ることができました。

The bus tour of Iriomote Island and the mangrove cruise allow you to see plants that you wouldn't normally encounter, and the guides provide a lot of explanations about the plants and the animals that inhabit the area, making it very educational.

On Yufu Island, I was able to see water buffalo in the pond and there were places to take photos with them, which was a lot of fun.

Traveling by water buffalo cart is soothing with its leisurely pace.

Due to the schedule, lunch is a bit early, but the bento is delicious, making this a highly recommended tour.

バスでの西表島観光、マングローブ遊覧は普段見ることが出来ない植物を見ることができ、植物のことや生息している動物のことをいろいろ説明してくださるのでとても勉強になります。
由布島では池に入っている水牛を見れたり、水牛と一緒に写真撮影が出来る場所があり楽しむことが出来ました。
水牛車での移動はゆったりとしたペースに癒されます。
スケジュールの関係でお昼が少しだけ早めですがお弁当も美味しくてとてもおすすめのツアーです。

There were 9 participants in the tour, and surprisingly, many people joined alone. Originally, we were supposed to just view Futamigaura from the car, but since we had a little extra time, we were able to get out of the car for 5 minutes to take a look!

Additionally, thanks to the driver's suggestion, we changed our lunch location to Akua, allowing us to have an early lunch after the boat tour and then walk to Totoro's Forest for sightseeing.

We were able to efficiently explore Itoshima, making it a wonderful trip. It seems there are other tours available, so next time I come, I will join a different tour!

ツアー参加人数が9人で、意外と1人で参加されている方が多かったです。
本来、車窓での観光であった二見ヶ浦では、少し時間があったため5分間だけ車から降りて見ることができました!
また、運転手さんの提案でお昼ごはんも芥屋へ変更したため、遊覧船後に早めに昼食を食べて歩いてトトロの森へ観光出来ました。

効率よく糸島を観光できたため、とても素敵な旅行になりました。
他にもツアーがあるみたいなので、次に来たときは別のツアーに参加します!

All the spots were great, but I was surprised that there were hardly any Japanese people. While the necessary information like the schedule was explained in Japanese, the descriptions of the spots were mostly in Chinese. Even though I was sightseeing in Japan, it felt like I was traveling abroad.

スポットはどこも良かったが、日本人がほとんどいなかったのでびっくりしました。スケジュールなど必要なことは日本語で説明がありましたが、スポットの説明は基本的に中国語などでした。日本で観光しているのに、海外旅行気分になりました。

I participated in a bus tour for the first time since I was on a business trip and it was quite challenging to travel alone by car on the weekend. Since it was Sunday, most people joined in groups, so I felt a bit lonely being by myself. However, I enjoyed it while feeling comforted by the kind tone of the guide. The weather was nice, and the beautiful scenery made for a great day of sightseeing. The lunch was even more delicious than I had imagined, and although I usually leave food behind, I finished everything. I was most looking forward to the blue pond, but it was unfortunate that we didn't have enough time. For those who can't plan their own itinerary, a bus tour is the best option.

出張で来ていて土日は、お休みのため1人で車移動もなかなか大変なのでバスツアーに初参加。
日曜日なので、ほとんどの方が多数での参加でした。
1人は、3組くらいで少し寂しくもありました。
それでも、ガイドさんの優しい口調でほっこりしながら楽しみました。
お天気もよくて綺麗な景色で1日で観光できよかったです。ランチも想像していたものより美味しく
いつも残してしまいますが完食。
青い池が1番楽しみだったのですが
時間に余裕がなかったのが残念。
自分で予定立てられない方にはバスツアーは、最高ですよ。

At Cape Kamoi, I couldn't keep up with the long promenade and had to turn back just a little before the end due to time constraints. The driver took photos along the way, allowing me to remember the stunning views. The guide, despite speaking broken Japanese, conveyed their earnestness. Thank you for a wonderful tour.

神威岬では、長い遊歩道に体力がもたず、あと少しのところで時間的に無理なため、引き返しました。
運転手さんが、途中で写真を撮ってくださり、絶景を思い出にすることができました。ガイドさんも、片言の日本語ながら、一生懸命さが伝わりました。
ステキなツアーに感謝します。ありがとうございました。

I was glad that they were flexible in adjusting to changes in dining locations and the ship's departure time. I've heard that the store selling generative groceries is famous, but is it really necessary?

食事場所の変更や船の発時間に合わせて移動してもらうなど臨機応変に動いてもらって良かったです。生成食料品を売る店は有名らしいけど、不要かな?

It was a clear day in September, and the sky was beautiful. The main focus was the audio guide, but the guide shared interesting trivia, allowing us to make the most of our limited time and enjoy ourselves. Lunch at Furano Wine House was very delicious, and the hamburger was the best! I was also able to enjoy the original Furano mochi from Campana Rokkatei, which was very tasty! Although it wasn't lavender season at Farm Tomita, it was a perfect place to buy souvenirs, and I was able to get a cute lavender plate! At Shikisai no Oka, sunflowers and petunias were in full bloom, and it was very beautiful. The Blue Pond was even bluer than I had expected. I was able to take some lovely photos. On the way back, I was dropped off at the Clock Tower, so I took some pictures there before heading home. It was so much fun. I highly recommend it to anyone who is unsure! Please give it a try!

9月の晴れた日でとても空が綺麗でした。基本は音声ガイドですが、ガイドさんが豆知識を教えてくれるので、限られた中で時間を有効活用して楽しむことができました。ふらのワインハウスでの昼食もとても美味しくハンバーグが最高でした！カンパーナ六花亭オリジナルのふらの餅も無事に食べることができとてもおいしかったです！ファーム富田ではラベンダーの時期ではなかったもののお土産を買うのにぴったりの場所でかわいいラベンダープレートをゲットできました！四季彩の丘ではひまわりやペチュニアが咲き誇っており、とても綺麗でした。青い池も思ってた以上に青く。綺麗な写真を撮ることができました。帰りに時計台で下ろしてもらえたので時計台で写真も撮ってから帰りました。すごく楽しかったです。迷ってる方へおすすめです！ぜひ参加してみてください〜！
