All Reviews for Bus Tours

The guide was kind and provided a lot of helpful information. I thought it was amazing that explanations were given in both Japanese and English. My mother, who is in her 80s, also said she had a great time. It became a wonderful memory.
For lunch, the Hida beef with bamboo leaf miso was very delicious. I had always wanted to visit Shirakawa-go, so I was very satisfied. It was lucky that the guide told us about a "secret spot" that was great for photos, so we were able to take some nice pictures.

ガイドさんが親切で、いろいろな情報をくださり、助かりました。日本語と英語、両方で説明されていて、すごいなと思いました。80代の母も楽しかったと申しておりました。いい思い出になりました。
お昼ご飯も、飛騨牛の朴葉味噌がとても美味しかったです。白川郷も一度行ってみたかったので、大満足でした。ガイドさんが、写真映えする「秘密の場所」を教えてくれたのがラッキーでした。よっていい写真が撮れました。

Half of the tour participants were Japanese, with the other half being from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and there was one person from Germany. The guide was Chinese but was fluent in Japanese, and also provided guidance in Chinese and English. It was a couple participating, and at the sightseeing spots, the guide took many photos of the couple. We were able to visit each sightseeing spot without feeling rushed, and I think it was a good balance.

ツアー参加者の日本人半数で、香港と台湾の方が半分、ドイツ人の方が一名でした。
ガイドさんは、中国人ですが、日本語堪能で、中国語と英語でもガイドしてました。
夫婦参加でしたが、観光スポットでガイドさんはシャッター押してくれて、夫婦の写真もたくさん撮ることができました。
各観光スポット数も無理なく回れて、良いバランスだったと思います。

I participated in a tour around Lake Shikotsu from Noboribetsu.

It was a rainy day, so I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy the scenery.

On a sunny day, I believe the view from Cape Erimo would have been quite beautiful.

Since I gave up on seeing the scenery that day, I lined up a bit at the Toyako Onsen but was able to enjoy some delicious soup curry.

The tour content was excellent (since we could relax while visiting multiple locations by bus).

There were about 40 participants, and half of them were from China, but they were not particularly noisy or late at all. The guide (who was Chinese) explained in both Japanese and Chinese. I’m not sure, but if the participants were all Japanese, there might not be a guide, just the driver? (The driver this time was friendly and kind.) (The guide also provided detailed explanations about the tourist spots, having lived in Japan for about nine years.)

It was cheaper than major sightseeing bus tours, but I felt the content was comparable, which was great.

If I have the opportunity to travel to Hokkaido again, I would like to join a different course tour.

登別から支笏湖を巡るツアーに参加しました

1日　雨だったので景色は楽しめなかったので残念です

晴れの日なら　地球岬はかなり綺麗に海が見えたはずなので

この日は景色を見るのを諦めたので、洞爺湖温泉で少し並びましたが美味しいスープカレーが食べれました

ツアー内容は最高です
（複数箇所をバスで巡ってくれるのでのんびり出来るからです）

ツアー参加者は40人ほどで、半分は中国の方でしたが　特にウルサイとか、遅刻するとかは全く無く　ガイドさん（中国の方）が　日本語と中国語で説明していました　わからないですが、お客様が日本人だけなら　ガイドさんは居なくて運転手さんのみかも？
（今回の運転手さんは気さくで優しい感じでした）
（ガイドさんも日本に住んで9年くらいの観光地も詳しく説明してくれました）

大手の観光バスツアーより格安ですが　内容は同等かと思うので　いいと感じました

また北海道に旅行する機会があれば　ちがうコースのツアーに参加したいです

The natural water bubbling from the mountain is very cold, and the houses of the village built with the wisdom of the people of that time, the heavy wood, and the thatched roofs layered multiple times are thick and very impressive, yet somehow charming.

山から湧き出る自然な水がとても冷たく、
当時の人達の知恵で建てられた集落の家、ずっしりと重い木　そして何重にも重ねられた藁葺き屋根　分厚くてとても印象的で　尚且つ何故だか可愛いらしい。

I rode with my 5-year-old child. I was worried that they might get bored after 60 minutes, but they enjoyed it until the end. Even in May, it was quite hot due to direct sunlight, so heat protection is essential!

There was no roof, but the windows were at a normal height, so I didn't have to worry about hats flying off.

5才の子どもと乗りました。
60分は飽きてしまうかな？と心配でしたが、最後まで楽しんでくれてました。
5月でも直射日光でかなり暑かったので、暑さ対策は必須です！

屋根がないだけで、窓は普通の高さであるので、帽子が飛んだりの心配はありませんでした。

Since it was the day before going to see Jomon Sugi, I chose an easy tour. I was impressed by the smooth explanations from the bus guide. I was lucky to see the Yakushima monkeys two or three times.

縄文杉を見に行く前日なので、楽なツアーを選びました。バスガイドさんの流れる様な説明に感心しました。2、3度屋久猿に会えてラッキーでした。

I participated because all the places I wanted to visit were included! Overall, my impression is that the time spent at each location was short, and I was constantly on the move, running a bit, haha. At the Churaumi Aquarium, I was able to see the dolphin show, but the parking lot was far away, so I was cutting it close for the meeting time, haha. At the Okashi Goten, since I visited in the evening, the sweet potato tart I was looking forward to was sold out, which was disappointing. However, the guide was friendly, and I had a great time. Thank you!

行きたいところが全て組み込まれていたので参加しました！
トータルの感想としては、ひとつひとつの滞在時間が短くて、終始小走りで移動してました笑
美ら海水族館はイルカショーまでみれましたが、駐車場までが遠いので集合時間ギリギリ笑
お菓子御殿では夕方の訪問だったので、お目当ての紅芋タルトが完売で残念でした↓
ただ、ガイドさんもフレンドリーだし、楽しい時間を過ごせてよかったです。ありがとうございました！

Everyone except me was from a foreign country. The guide provided information in three different languages. Thank you very much for your efforts in such a challenging situation. If there is another opportunity, I look forward to it.

私以外、全員外国の方でした。ガイドさんが3カ国の言葉で案内してくれました。大変な中、本当にありがとうございました。また機会がありましたら、よろしくお願い致します。

Not only was I able to go to the places I wanted to visit, but I also received great recommendations, which made my experience very comfortable! Next time I come to Hokkaido with friends or family, I would like to participate again.

行きたかった場所にいけるだけでなくおすすめも教えていただけたので快適に過ごすことができました！次は知人や家族と北海道に来ることがあれば参加したいと思います。

The male guide was incredibly kind and attentive, truly the best. There were Japanese, Chinese, and American guests on the bus, many of whom couldn't speak Japanese, but the guide spoke three languages and actively engaged with guests who seemed anxious upon arriving at the sightseeing spots. I believe that with this guide, even those who can't speak Japanese can participate with peace of mind. Additionally, the tour covered a variety of places, which was great for someone like me who is a bit greedy for experiences.

男性のガイドさんがとっても優しく面倒見の良い最高の方でした。
バスには日本人、中国人、アメリカ人の客がいて日本語を話せない方も多くいましたが、ガイドさんが3カ国語を喋れて観光地に着いても不安そうな客に積極的に話しかけてお世話をしてくれていました。
このガイドさんなら日本語を喋れなくても安心して参加出来ると思います。
またツアーも色々な所を案内してくれるので欲張りな私はとっても良かったです。

I participated with my sister during the middle of our 3-night, 4-day trip. My goal on Ishigaki Island was to ride a water buffalo cart. I rode twice, once with the buffalo from Yubu Island and once with the buffalo from Taketomi Island. It was my first time learning that the types of buffalo were different. I was fortunate to encounter gentle buffalo in both cases.

Additionally, the guide was wonderful and let us listen to Okinawan folk songs. The colors of the sea visible from the boat to the island were stunning. It became the best memory.

３泊４日の中日に姉と参加しました。石垣島での私の目的は水牛車に乗ることです。由布島の牛と竹富島の牛の２回乗車しました。それぞれ牛の種類が違うのは初めて知りました。どちらも穏やかな牛に当たったのでよかったです。
また、ガイドさんもいい方で沖縄民謡も聞かせてくれました。
島に渡る船から見える海の色がいろいろな色に見えます。最高の思い出となりました。

It felt special to experience a tour that supports three languages, giving me a perspective on Japan from the viewpoint of foreign visitors. Even though it rained at the zoo, the waterfall, and Blue Point Pond, everything was very beautiful, making it a great tour that covered all the highlights.

海外旅行に来たような三ヵ国語対応ツアーで、外国の方からの視点の日本も知れたような特別感もありました。また、動物園、滝、ブルースポイント池も雨でしたが、とても綺麗で、いいところどりのツアーでした。

The tour I participated in had 24 people from four different countries, and our guide, Mr. M, skillfully managed multiple languages, making the tour enjoyable and reassuring. The driver also ensured safe driving despite bad weather, allowing us to have a very pleasant day.

Both of them had great personalities, and I definitely want to join such a tour again!

The places included in the tour had a rather tight schedule, but they were very appealing and covered all the key points. The feeling of wanting more (I wish I could explore more thoroughly…) turned into a motivation for the next time, thinking, "I’ll come back to see this place in more detail!" I felt that I would definitely like to use this service again.

参加した日は4ヶ国籍で計24名のツアーでしたがガイドのMさんが多国語を見事に操り、楽しく安心出来るツアーを催行して下さり、運転手さんも途中悪天候でも安全運転でとても心地よい1日を送れました。
とにかくおふたりのお人柄が良く、こういうツアーならばまた是非参加したい！と思えます。

また、ツアーに含まれている場所も時間はかなりタイトスケジュールではありますがポイントを抑えていて大変魅力的で、物足りない(もっとじっくり観たいな…)という欲求は「次回はここをもう少しじっくり見に来よう！」という予習にもなるので有難かったです。
また是非利用したいと感じました。

On the last day of my trip, I participated with the goal of being taken to the airport, but I was glad I could effectively sightsee during the last half day. The Super Eisa Show at Okinawa World was especially great. It was an impressive show that energized me. Having a half-day tour allowed for efficient sightseeing, which was wonderful. I will use this service again.

旅行最終日、空港に送って貰うのが目的で参加しましたが最後の半日も有効に観光出来て良かったです。とくに沖縄ワールドのスーパーエイサーショーは凄く良かったです
迫力があり元気を頂けるショーでした。
半日のツァーも有ると効率良く観光出来て良かったです。また利用させて頂きます。

Thank you to the guide who spoke Japanese, Taiwanese, and English. We were blessed with good weather, and thanks to you, we had a comfortable tour. Thank you to the driver for your safe driving.

日本酒、台湾語、英語を話せるガイドさん、ありがとうございました。天気にも恵まれて、お陰様にて快適なツアーが出来ました。運転手様も安全運転に徹していただきありがとうございました。

The web booking for the optional tour with Veltra was really easy and reliable.

I thought it might be too ambitious to do a day trip from Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go and Takayama, but thanks to the appropriate advice from our guide and the timely progress, we were able to enjoy it with plenty of time to spare. Thank you very much.

ベルトラさんのオプション旅行のWeb手配は本当に簡単で確実でした。

金沢からの日帰りで、白川郷と高山周遊は欲張りすぎではと思いましたが、適切なガイドのアドバイス、時間通りの進行もあり十分余裕で楽しめました。ありがとうございました。

The guide was very humorous, making us laugh with various jokes while introducing the tourist spots. Although I was traveling alone, I never felt bored, and I was able to visit many different attractions, making it a fulfilling day. By the way, the guide speaks three languages.

ガイドさんはとてもユーモアな方です、観光地の紹介をしながら、色々冗談も言って笑わせてくださいました。
一人旅ですが、全然退屈しなかったですし、色々な観光地が回れたので、充実した１日でした。
ちなみにガイドさんは3か国語が話せるのです。

I've ridden a water buffalo cart several times before, but the satisfaction really depends on the stories told by the guide. This time, the guide's simple yet charming storytelling and the performance on the sanshin perfectly matched the slow life atmosphere I was looking for, and I was very satisfied. There was also a cute incident where the buffalo wouldn't move, which turned into a fun memory and made for a great experience.

水牛車は初めてではなく、数回乗ったことがありますが、添乗するおじいの話によって満足感が左右するものです。今回のおじいは、私の求めるスローライフな雰囲気を味わうに丁度良い朴訥なしゃべりに三線の演奏、とても満足のいくものでした。途中牛が動こうとしないという可愛いハプニングもありながら、それがかえって楽しい思い出になり、良い思い出になりました。

The tour guide's service was great, and I had a very enjoyable day! I was surprised by the strong winds at Cape Kamui in Shakotan, but it was a good experience. Thank you!

添乗員さんの対応も良く、とても楽しい一日を過ごせました！
積丹カムイ岬の風の強さにはびっくりしましたが、いい経験です。
ありがとうございました

I participated in a tour with Beltora for the first time. It was packed with activities, including Noboribetsu, Cape Earth, a bear ranch, Lake Toya, and Lake Shikotsu. I really enjoyed the whole experience thanks to Sho, who entertained us with his nonstop talk from start to finish. All the members who participated were very satisfied. I definitely want to book another tour with Beltora.

初めてベルトラさんのツアーに参加しました。登別、地球岬、熊牧場、洞爺湖、支笏湖と盛りだくさんな上に、最初から最後までマシンガントークのショウさんに本当に楽しませてもらい、ありがとうございました。参加したメンバーは全員大満足です。
また是非ベルトラさんのツアー頼みたいと思います。

Since I participated on a weekday, there were a total of 20 people. There were couples, solo travelers, friends, and people from overseas; everyone was a diverse group. Hokkaido Shrine was magnificent. At Okurayama Jump Stadium, we took the lift to the top. Although the weather was unfortunate, we were able to get a panoramic view of Sapporo city. Shiroi Koibito Park was whimsical and charming. I felt that the last outer market was unnecessary for us. Since it was only in the morning, we were able to do some quick sightseeing, so I give it ★4.

平日に参加したので、全員で２０名。ご夫婦、お一人、友人、海外から方々、みなさんいろいろなメンバーでした。北海道神宮は壮大。大倉山ジャンプ場ではリフトに乗って頂上までいきました。あいにくのお天気でしたが、札幌市内が一望できました。白い恋人パークはメルヘンでかわいらしかったです。最後の場外市場はワタシ達にとっては不要だったなと思いました。午前中だけなので、サクッと観光できたので、★４つです。

I used this service during Golden Week. There was no traffic, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing at my destination thoroughly. The tour guide was full of humor, and the atmosphere on the bus was always pleasant; I participated alone, but it was not a problem at all.

In Shirakawa-go, the mountains topped with snow and the gassho-zukuri villages were very beautiful. Since there is plenty of free time, I recommend stopping for tea or something along the way.

Gokayama truly has the charm of Japan's original landscapes, and I was able to enjoy a peaceful time. The lunch was average, but the scenery around the restaurant was wonderful.

GWに利用しました。渋滞にあうこともなく、目的地で十分に観光を楽しめました。
添乗員のお話しはユーモアたっぷり、バスの中は終始和やかで、ひとり参加でしたが全く問題ありませんでした。
白川郷では、雪を頂いた山々と合掌造りの集落がとても美しかったです。自由時間が長いので、途中でお茶などすることをおすすめします。
五箇山は本当に日本の原風景といった風情で、穏やかな時間を満喫できました。
昼食は普通ですが、お店の周りの景観は素晴らしかったです。

I participated alone, but there were many foreign participants, so the guide provided information in three languages. We visited many famous spots, making it a fun and satisfying tour.

一人参加でしたが、外国の方もたくさん参加していたので、ガイドさんが3か国語で案内して下さり、有名どころをたくさん訪れたので、楽しく満足できるツアーでした。

On the last day of my first trip to Okinawa, I wanted to make the most of my time before my flight, so I signed up for a tour. I chose the Okinawa World tour, and it was great to experience traditional Okinawan costumes and see the shows! I would have appreciated about an hour more, but I was satisfied with the affordable price. The guide also shared various stories about Okinawa that I wouldn't normally hear.

初めての沖縄旅行の最終日。フライトまでの時間を有効利用したくて申し込みました。沖縄ワールドのツアーを選びましたが、沖縄衣装の体験やショーも見れてよかったです！あと1時間くらい時間があればありがたかったですが、価格も安く満足です。
ガイドさんも普段聞けない沖縄のいろいろな話もしてくださいました。

The ability to use three routes freely with an unlimited ride pass was very appealing. However, when I actually tried it, the 40-minute interval between buses during lunch time was too short, and I ended up missing the bus and had to take a taxi. After exploring Asakusa with the red line, I got off in Shibuya, but the distance to Meiji Shrine was far, so I had to take a taxi again. I would like to see a few more stops added in convenient locations.

乗り放題で三つのルートを自由に利用出来ることはとても魅力出来でしたが。
実際回って見ると、ランチの時間では次の便まで40分の間隔は短くて乗り遅れましてタクシーを利用する事になりました。
レットで浅草を回った後、
次は渋谷で降り場と目指した明治神宮までの距離が遠くてまたタクシーに乗る事になりました。
少し停留所を便利な場所に増やして欲しいです。

Unfortunately, it was rainy, but Shirakawa-go was as bustling as ever with many visitors. I was surprised by the number of souvenir shops and restaurants. I felt nostalgic for Shirakawa-go before the influx of inbound tourists. I hope Gokayama remains as it is now. However, I would like to visit Shirakawa-go again during the snowy season.

あいにくの、雨でしたが、白川郷は、相変わらずの人出の多さでぎわってました。土産店、飲食店の多さにも驚きました。以前のインバウンドでにぎわう前の白川郷がなつかしく思いました。五箇山は、今のままであって欲しいと思いました。ただ、雪の時期の、白川郷には今一度行ってみたいと思います。

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the beautiful blue of Shakotan due to the cloudy weather! We had more time in Otaru, but we were rushed at the Glass Road area due to time constraints! I really think we should come during a sunny summer! There were about half Japanese and half foreign visitors, but it was great that everyone was punctual and we could ride the bus comfortably!

折角の積丹はブルー曇りで見られず残念でした！
小樽は時間多めでしたが、ガラスの道のところが時間がなくバタバタでした！
やはりよく晴れた夏に来ないと思いました！
日本人、外国の方半々でしたが、時間厳守で、バスもゆったり乗れてよかったです！

Due to the impact of the typhoon, all the activities I had planned were canceled, which brought my mood down. However, in the end, I was able to participate here and created some truly wonderful memories. We were able to visit the tourist spots in Okinawa in just one day, and since we had already decided on the must-visit locations, I felt the duration of our stay was just right. The tour guide was really good at speaking Japanese and made the conversation enjoyable, and the driver was calm, allowing us to relax. Thank you for a wonderful day.

台風の影響で予定していたアクティビティが全てキャンセルになってしまいテンションが下がっていましたが、結果的にこちらに参加させて頂いてとても最高の思い出が出来ました。
沖縄の観光地を1日でまわれて、予めそれぞれの絶対行きたいスポットを決めていたので、私的には滞在時間は丁度良いと感じました。
添乗員さんも日本語が本当にお上手でお話も楽しく、運転手さんも穏やかで安心して過ごせました。
素敵な1日をありがとうございました。

It was great that the guide accompanied us and provided information about Okinawa throughout the journey. However, it was disappointing that the entrance fee for Shurijo Castle was separate and that there was no group discount. I felt that the time spent there could have been shorter, and it might have been better to allocate more time to Okinawa World. Since the departure time was early, I gave up on having breakfast at the hotel, but waiting for the opening time was understandable considering the traffic. In any case, I felt that two hours at Okinawa World was not enough to see two shows, so I would prefer a plan without Shurijo Castle altogether.

ガイドさんが同乗してくれて、移動中も終始沖縄のガイドをしてくれる所は非常に良いが、斎場御嶽の入場料金が別途で、団体割引きの適用も無いのは残念、そこでの時間はもっと短くて、沖縄ワールドを多めにしても良いのではと、感じた。出発時間も早いのでホテルの朝ごはんを諦めたのに開場時間待ちしたのも、まぁ、渋滞考慮で仕方ないのかも知れないが、って感じ。兎に角、沖縄ワールドで２時間ではショーを２つ見るのも厳しいと感じたので、いっそのこと斎場御嶽はなしのプランを希望します。

I was feeling down because of the heavy rain forecast, but surprisingly, I had a fun stroll. On Monday, with the heavy rain, there were few people around. All I could hear were the sounds of the rain and the frogs. In the absence of the hustle and bustle, my heart felt refreshed. I wonder if it would be even more serene on a snowy day. I want to come back again. The food was delicious, the bus was comfortable, and both the tour guide and the driver were calm and kind. I had a wonderful day.
