All Reviews for Bus Tours

During my stay in Kanazawa, I participated in this tour. The content of the tour was as described, and the guide provided specific and easy-to-understand recommendations for spots and souvenirs, which were very helpful. It was my first visit to Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, and I believe the enjoyable time I had was thanks to participating in this tour. I would definitely like to use this service again if I have the opportunity. Thank you very much for this experience!

この度、金沢滞在中にこちらのツアーに参加させていただきました。ツアーの内容は記載通りで、ガイドさんのおすすめスポットやお土産など、具体的にわかりやすく提案して頂けて、とても参考になりました。白川郷も五箇山も初めての訪問でしたが、とても楽しいひと時となったのは、こちらのツアーに参加させていただいたからだと思います。また機会があればぜひ利用した頂きたいと思います♡この度は、ありがとうございました。

As a half-day tour on the day of departure, it's excellent. If it fits your flight schedule, it also serves as airport transportation, making it cost-effective. If it's your first time in Okinawa, I recommend Okinawa World.

帰る日の半日観光としては、秀逸です。フライトに合っていれば、空港送迎も兼ねるから、コスパも良い。初沖縄なら、おきなわワールドがオススメ。

Every place was new to me, and I was thrilled. It was hot, but I was glad the weather was nice. The Shikisai no Oka and the Blue Pond in Biei were amazing. I wish I had spent a bit more time at Shikisai no Oka. The bento was delicious. It would have been perfect if it had come with a drink.

どこも初めての場所で感激でした。
暑かったけど天候に恵まれて良かったです。
美瑛の四季彩の丘と青い池が最高でした。四季彩の丘の滞在時間が少し短かったです。
お弁当に美味しかった。飲み物が付いてたら100点でした。

This is a very good bus tour that chooses popular tourist spots that are difficult to reach by local buses or trains. The guide explains in Japanese, Chinese, and English. Although the departure time is early, I think it was great because we could sightsee in various places before other buses arrived and it got crowded. It would have been better if there were charging outlets at the seats.

路線バス・電車では行きにくい人気の観光場所をチョイスしている、非常に良いバスツアーです。ガイドさんが日本語・中国語・英語と３つを駆使して説明してくれます。出発時間が早めですが、そのおかげで他のバスが来て混雑する前に、あちこちを観光できて良かったと思います。座席に充電用のコンセントがあればベターでした。

I considered checking the schedules for the local buses and trains to visit Hitsujigaoka and Okurayama Jump Stadium, but taking a guided bus tour seemed like a better option when I thought about the waiting times and the hassle of figuring everything out. The tour included an audio guide with headphones, and there were power outlets at the seats, so it was great to be able to charge my devices while sightseeing. I recommend it to both foreigners and Japanese people. Since the bus departs around 2 PM, if you can arrive at Sapporo Station early, you can do some sightseeing within walking distance from the station before joining the bus tour (that's what I did).

自分で路線バス・電車のダイヤを調べて、羊ヶ丘や大倉山ジャンプ台に行くことも考えましたが、待ち時間やいろいろと探す手間暇も考えると、お任せのバスツアーが良いと判断しました。イヤホンでの音声ガイド付きで、座席にはコンセントもあったので充電しながら観光もできて良かったです。外国の方にも日本人にもお勧めです。バスの出発時間が１４時ぐらいなので、早めに札幌駅に到着できる場合は、札幌駅から徒歩圏観光をしたのち、本バスツアーという形も可能です（自分はそうしました）

The plan itself was very good. However, perhaps the food photos were too appealing... for those who came from overseas or for those who think of this as a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Kyoto, it may be hard to recommend due to personal preferences.

Additionally, since Kiyomizu has many attractions, if you choose a plan that includes meals, having a bit more free time would allow for more enjoyable exploration, which would likely increase satisfaction (it might be good to allocate some time for the next visit to Kinkaku-ji as well...).

For the final stop at Arashiyama, if there were a note stating "JR time to the disbanding location at Kyoto Station is free for each person," those who want to leisurely explore Arashiyama could plan their own itinerary, which would add even more enjoyment to the tour.

It's a good plan, and I hope it gets even better.

プラン自体はとても良かったです。
ただ、食事写真が良すぎたのか…わざわざ海外から来られた方や、一生に一度の京都と思って食事を楽しむつもりの方には、好みはありますが、おすすめしにくいです。
また、清水は見どころが沢山あるので、食事をつけるプランにするなら、もう少し自由時間が長いほうが散策も楽しめて、満足度は高まりそうです(次の金閣寺散策時間を少しあてても良さそうですが…)。
最後の嵐山も「解散場所の京都駅へのJR時間は各自自由」の文言があれば、ゆっくり嵐山を散策したい方は各自でみたい場所の計画をたてられそうなので、さらに楽しみが増えそうなツアープランだと思います。
良いプランなので、さらに良くなるように祈ります。

You can quickly see the highlights in a short amount of time, and they can also hold your large luggage, making it perfect for the last day. They will also take you to the airport on your way back.

短い時間でサクッと見どころを観れるし、大きな荷物も預かってもらるので最終日にピッタリです。帰りは空港まで送ってもらえます。

The water buffalo and mangroves were both very good. I learned a lot, and it became a great memory. The children were also happy.

水牛もマングローブもとても良かったです。勉強になったし、いい想い出になりました。子供たちも喜んでくれました。

I heard that the tour for the next day was canceled due to high waves expected from the approaching typhoon. I'm glad it was today—what luck! Moreover, since the waves were a bit higher, there was some rocking on the return ferry, and the kids were so excited, it was like they were on a roller coaster! The staff were all very friendly, and it was a tour that left us completely satisfied.

台風接近予想が出ており、翌日のツアーは波が高く中止になったとお聞きしました。　今日で良かった〜！ラッキーでした。
しかも波が少し上がっていた為、帰りのフェリーでは多少の揺れがあり子供達は絶叫マシン体験したかのようにテンションmax！
係員の方もみんな親切で何もかも大満足のツアーでした。

I visited Iriomote Island (Mangrove sightseeing) and Yubu Island (crossing by water buffalo)!

- They provide pick-up service to the hotel.
- The tour duration was just right.
- I was able to experience various activities!
(Riding a boat, crossing the island by water buffalo, having free time to explore Yubu Island, and touring the mangroves.)

Overall, it was very good! I would like to use this service again.

西表島(マングローブ見学)と由布島(水牛で渡る)へ行きました！

・ホテルまで送迎してくれる
・ツアーの所要時間丁度いい
・色んな体験ができた！
　(船に乗ったり、水牛で島を渡れたり、由布島自由散策の時間があったり、マングローブを見て回れたり)

全体的にとても良かったです〜！
また利用したいと思います

Due to the impact of the typhoon and concerns about the weather, we had to change our schedule. As a result, we were unable to participate in the tour to Taketomi Island, but we were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy ourselves thoroughly.

台風の影響もあり、天候不安があったため、
急遽日程を変更。
その為、竹富島には参加できないツアーとなってしまいましたが、
天気にも恵まれ、充分に楽しむことができました。

Although the stay is short, you can experience a lot of natural beauty. You can also enjoy delicious food, and even if you indulge a little, you'll still manage to fit it all in!

滞在が短い時間ですがたくさんの自然美を体験できます
美味しいものも食べて欲張ってもなんとか間に合いますよ

I was thrilled to watch the jump practice live at the Okurayama Jump Stadium. The bus guide's commentary was fantastic.

大倉山ジャンプ競技場でジャンプの練習が生で見学出来て大興奮でした。
バスガイドさんのトーク最高でした。

I am a bilingual Japanese person. I participated in the tour because it was conducted in English and Chinese. Even though I arrived late, I was able to enjoy the planned duration of the stay and explore various places. The highlight was that the guide (Christy) provided information in advance and answered questions, which was satisfying. This tour may not be suitable for those who only understand Japanese, but for those studying English, I think it’s a great opportunity to talk with people from different countries and have fun. Since there is quite a bit of walking, I recommend wearing sneakers. At Oshino Hakkai, there is spring water from Mount Fuji, so if you bring a plastic bottle, you can fill it up for free.

Cape Kamui on the Shakotan Peninsula was very beautiful. I was able to eat freshly caught sea urchin just as the sea urchin fishing in Shakotan began. I didn't think the seafood bowl was that delicious. I was glad that the weather was favorable.

積丹半島神威岬がとても綺麗でした
積丹の雲丹漁が始まったタイミングでとれたてが食べられました。
海鮮丼はそんなに美味しいと思わなかった。
天気に恵まれたのでよかったです

The time allocation at Pineapple Park is long. It would be better if we could increase the time spent on Kouri Island, as it was the best part, and have lunch there.

パイナップルパークの時間配分が長い。一番良かった古宇利島の時間を増やしランチできたらもっと良しかと。

I was tired, probably because it was hot. The water buffalo was able to relax, but it was hectic. I kept thinking about not getting seasick because the boat was rocking. The glass-bottom boat was hot without air conditioning. I wish the inside of the boat was cooler.

暑かったせいか疲れました　水牛はゆっくりできましたが慌しかった　船が揺れて酔わないようにとずっと思っていました　グラスボードが冷房のない船で暑かったです　船の中は涼しくして欲しい

I was looking for a tour that would take me to several major tourist spots since I had no local knowledge and no means of transportation, and I came across this tour.

It seemed to be primarily aimed at foreign tourists, and we were the only Japanese people, but perhaps because the foreign guests were wealthy enough to travel abroad, they were quiet during the journey and had good manners, which made it enjoyable and安心!

However, there was one disappointing thing...

The restaurant we stopped at for lunch also seemed to cater to bus tour guests from overseas, and there were many people from China. Unfortunately, the restrooms were very dirty. More than half of the stalls were broken and out of order. Perhaps because they couldn't flush, used toilet paper was overflowing in the stalls and left unattended. I wonder if they couldn't keep up with the number of guests or if there were just too many customers...

Other than that, I was very satisfied! With lunch included, this price is a great deal!

The guide was also very kind, thank you so much!

I will definitely use this service again when I travel!

土地勘もなく、足もないので、主要の観光地を何箇所も廻ってもらえるﾂｱｰを探していて、こちらのﾂｱｰに出逢いました。

主に海外の観光客向けのﾂｱｰのようで日本人は私達だけでしたが、海外旅行ができるような裕福な外国の方だからか、移動中も静かで、ﾏﾅｰもよく、安心して楽しめました！

ただ1つだけ残念なことが…

昼食で立ち寄ったお店も、やはり海外からのﾊﾞｽﾂｱｰ客向けらしく、おそらく中国の方がたくさんいたのですが、ﾄｲﾚが汚いこと汚いこと。
半分以上の個室が壊れていて使用禁止。流せないからか、使用済みのﾄｲﾚｯﾄﾍﾟｰﾊﾟｰが個室に溢れんばかりに捨ててあり、放置してありました。
受け入れ体制が間に合っていないのか、それ以上にお客さんがきてしまっているのか…

それ以外は大満足でした！
昼食もついて、この価格はお得です！

ｶﾞｲﾄﾞｻﾝにも、とても親切にしていただき、本当にありがとうございました！

また旅行に行く際は使わせていただきます＼(^o^)／

I was glad to be able to efficiently explore Okinawa. It's important to take measures against the heat. The guide was doing a great job. By the time we reached the last stop, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, I was completely exhausted.

効率的に沖縄観光できてよかった。暑さ対策が必要ですね。ガイドさん頑張ってました。最後の御菓子御殿の時は疲れはてました。

I enjoyed a scenery that felt just like being abroad. While gazing at the slopes of hills representative of Hokkaido, I felt as if I were on an overseas trip without needing a passport. Both the guide and the driver were very kind, making it the best trip. I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the bento was, which I hadn't expected much from. I highly recommend it.

まるで外国のような景色を楽しめました。
北海道を代表するような丘の斜面を眺めながら、パスポートなしで行ける海外旅行をしたような気分でした。
ガイドさんも運転手さんもとても親切で、最高の旅になりました。
あまり期待していなかったお弁当が美味しくて、良い意味でとても驚きました。
オススメです。

We participated in our first trip to Shodoshima as a family of three. Initially, we thought about exploring on our own, but since we had no familiarity with the area and the local bus service is limited, we decided to rely on this tour. It turned out to be a great decision! During the ride, the bus guide provided detailed explanations of each area, and we enjoyed readings from "Twenty-Four Eyes" (without a script!!) and beautiful songs, so there was never a dull moment. This tour, which covers each spot in about 40-50 minutes, was ideal for us in terms of cost-effectiveness and time efficiency. It might not be suitable for those who want to explore each spot in depth, but I recommend it for anyone who wants to get a general feel for Shodoshima and visit the main attractions. We also received souvenirs, making it a delightful tour.

初めての小豆島を家族三人で参加しました。
当初自分たちだけであちこち行ってみる考えでしたが、土地勘が全くないことと、ローカルバスの本数も限られることから、今回こちらにお世話になることにしました。結果大正解！搭乗中もバスガイドさんが各エリアの詳しい説明をしてくださったり、二十四の瞳の朗読（台本なし！！）や、情緒たっぷりの歌を披露して下さったりして退屈する時間は全くありませんでした。各スポットを40−50分程度の駆け足で回るこちらのツアーは、私たちにとってコスパ良しタイパ良しの理想ツアーでした。各スポットをじっくりと見てまわりたい方には不向きかもしれませんが、とりあえず小豆島の雰囲気と王道スポットをざっくり見て回ってみたいという方にはおすすめです。お土産もいただき嬉しいツアーでした。

I was worried since I made the reservation from Kyushu. On the day of the tour, I was surprised by everyone’s punctuality, arriving 15 minutes early. I tend to be a bit early myself, but when I went to check in, I was almost at the end of the line. However, thanks to that, both the departure and return times were early, and I was very satisfied.

The tour guide's explanations were enjoyable, and I took thorough notes to fully appreciate Shirakawa-go. My favorite café was closed. The guide was fluent in English, which made foreign guests feel at ease. It seemed they were very considerate even for solo travelers, especially regarding lunch seating.

The lunch was delicious, and the driver was safe. It was a very enjoyable trip to Shirakawa-go. Thank you very much.

九州から予約したので、大丈夫かなあと心配しました。当日、皆様の15分前行動にびっくりしました。
私も大概気が早いですが、受付開始に行くとほぼ最後のほうでしたね。でもおかげさまで、出発時間も帰りの時間も早くて、とても満足でした。
ツアーガイドさんの説明が楽しくて、しっかりメモして白川郷を堪能しました。お気に入りの喫茶店は、お休みでした。英語も堪能で外国人の方も安心でした。一人旅でもすごく気を遣っていただけるみたいでした。昼食の席など。
昼ごはんも美味しかったです。運転手さんも安全運転でした。
とても楽しい白川郷の旅となりました。ありがとうございました。

I was able to visit all the places I wanted without wasting time, and by having lunch as a bento distribution, we were able to stay longer at each location. By moving ahead of other tour groups, we avoided crowds at the destinations, making it a truly meaningful experience.

行きたい場所を無駄なく観光出来、昼食をお弁当配布にした事で各場所の滞在時間も長く
他のツアーの方々より先回りしてまわることで滞在先でも混み合うこともなく、本当に有意義な時間になりました

Kuroda-san, our guide, was amazing! I appreciated that there was no pressure from the guide and that we were allowed to explore independently. I think it must have been challenging to engage with such a diverse group of international tourists. They also pointed out great photo spots. Thank you very much!

One downside was that while I learned a lot about the charm of Shirakawa-go, I felt a bit lost regarding the spots in Takayama. If possible, since this is not a place we can visit multiple times as tourists, I would appreciate advice on the following:
1. Must-see places (locations, food, history) for this tour
2. Places (locations, food, history) to visit next time, even if we couldn't go this time
3. Photo spots

I would love to join you again if the opportunity arises. Thank you for a wonderful time!

ガイドの黒田さん。最高でした！
ガイドさん独特の圧もなく、自主性に任せてくださり感謝でした。
国際色豊かな観光客相手でなかなか話題も難しかったと思います。
写真撮影スポットとかも教えて頂きました。有難うございました！
残念だったところは、白川郷の魅力は色々教えて頂きましたが、
飛騨高山のスポットがいまいちわからないまま、
観光していたという感じでした。
出来ましたら、観光客目線で行けば何回も行ける場所ではないので、
①今回のツアーで押さえるべき所（場所・グルメ・歴史）
②今回はいけないけど次回、行くべき所（場所・グルメ・歴史）
③撮影スポット
など、アドバイス頂けると助かります。
また、機会があればご一緒させてください。
楽しい時間を有難うございました。

The one-day tour was very efficient, allowing us to explore thoroughly, and I was 100% satisfied.

The guide's hospitality was wonderful, and their stories were interesting and full of information. Thank you, guide!

ワンデイツアー、とても効率よく、周遊し、満足度100%です。

ガイドさんのホスピタリティが素晴らしくて、お話も面白く、情報も満載でした。
ガイドさん、ありがとうございます。

Lake Toya was mediocre, but everything else was good. Especially Lake Shikotsu. It was beautiful. I do not recommend the bear ranch.

I felt that about half of the visitors were foreigners, particularly from China, and I think the guide was also from China. It felt a bit strange to be guided by someone from China, but they explained everything properly in Japanese, Chinese, and English, so there were no issues. The Chinese visitors were not noisy, and I was able to rest soundly on the bus between tourist spots.

洞爺湖はイマイチですが、その他は良かったです。特に支笏湖。綺麗でした。クマ牧場はオススメしません。
利用客には外国の方、特に中国の方が半分くらいだと感じましたし、ガイドさんも中国出身の方と思います。中国の方にガイドされるのも変な感じですが、きちんと日本語、中国語、英語で説明してくださり不都合は無かったです。中国の方々も煩くなく、観光スポット間のバス中はぐっすり休めました。

I participated in the morning course on the Yakuza Ru号. I visited Chihiro Falls two days ago on my own, but when I went as part of the course, it was lovely with the mist after the rain. The bus guide was a local, and he was very interesting and great. It seems that the Seibu Forest Road opened the day before, so I was lucky to be able to go there. I also saw many monkeys and deer! Thank you to the driver for navigating the narrow roads.

やくざる号で午前中のコースに参加しました。
千尋の滝は2日前に個人で行ったのですが、コースで行ったときは、雨上がりで霧がかかりとてもすてきでした。
バスガイドさんは地元の方で、話しが面白くとても良かったです。
西部林道は前日に開通したみたいで、回れてラッキーでした。さるやシカも沢山見れました！
運転手さんも狭い道お疲れさまでした。

We participated as a family of three. First, I was a bit anxious about the meeting place, but a woman kindly assisted us, which put me at ease. When it was time to start, I was surprised to hear that most of the participants were foreigners! Once we boarded the bus, I was even more amazed to hear the tour guide speaking in three to four different languages. I thought it must be quite challenging. Thanks to that, I felt a bit more accustomed to Chinese. I appreciate the thorough explanations. The driver also greeted us warmly when we boarded and disembarked, which made for a very refreshing experience. Thank you! At the places we visited, I felt the romance of the pioneering spirit in the history of the Otaru Canal. In the shopping district, I was very satisfied with the delicious gourmet food. At Cape Kamui, one hour was not enough; the view was breathtaking, and I wanted to keep looking at it. It was disappointing that the shops were closed when we returned (at 4:00 PM). On the way back, I dozed off while looking at the horizon, which was also wonderful. (laughs) I thoroughly enjoyed Hokkaido. It was a tour I would love to go on again.

家族3人で参加させていただきました。まず集合場所に不安のまま行ったら、女性の方が丁寧に対応してくださり、安心しました。時間になり、周りの話を聞いたらほとんど外国人の方でびっくり！バスに乗車したらツアーガイドの方がが3〜4各国語を話していてさらにびっくり！大変なんだなぁと思いました。おかげて少し中国語に慣れた感じがしました。丁寧な説明に感謝しております。ドライバーさんにも乗車、降車の際に気持ちの良いご挨拶をかけていただき、とても清々しい気持ちで過ごせました。ありがとうございます。訪れた場所では小樽の運河の歴史に開拓精神のロマンを感じました。商店街では、美味しいグルメに大満足でした。神威岬では１時間では足りなかったです。ずっと見ていたい絶景でした。戻ってきたらお店が閉まっていて（16:00）残念でした。帰りは水平線を見ながらウトウトしてそれもまた最高でした。(笑)北海道を満喫できました。また行きたいツアーでした。

The mangrove tour was during high tide, so the water was murky and we couldn't see the roots very well, but we were able to see five types of mangroves with white, yellow, and red flowers. Riding the water buffalo while enjoying the sanshin was a nice, relaxing experience. I had such a great time that I thought it would be nice to have a plan that allows for a bit more leisure.

マングローブ遊覧は満潮で水が濁っていて、根張りは余り見れませんでしたが、5種のマングローブに白、黄、赤の花が見れました、水牛乗車中の三線がいい感じでゆったりと楽しめました。もう少しゆっくりできるプランがあれば良いのではと思うほど楽しい時間を過ごせました。

I applied to visit a place that is not easily accessible for solo travelers. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, I couldn't go to the Chirihama Nagisa Driveway, and I could only watch from the car window as regular vehicles enjoyed the drive. It was disappointing, but the seafood I had at Noto Don and Wajima Morning Market was very delicious. The cave illuminated in blue was beautiful, but the heat and the steep paths were tougher than I expected, so I recommend participants pay attention to the temperature and their clothing. There was someone on the same bus wearing sandals, and they looked quite uncomfortable.

一人旅ではなかなか行けない場所に行ってみたくて申込みました。あいにく天候が悪かったため千里浜なぎさドライブウェイに行くことは出来ず、天候など関係ない一般車の方々が千里浜なぎさドライブウェイを楽しんでいる様を車窓から眺めるしかなかったのが残念でしたが、能登丼や輪島朝市で食べた海鮮はとてもおいしかったです。青くライトアップされた洞窟はとても綺麗でしたが、暑さと坂道が思いの他つらかったので、参加される方は気温と服装にご注意ください。同じバスにサンダルの方がいましたが、相当キツイお顔をされていたので。
