美ら海水族館観光バスツアー 琉球村+星野リゾート バンタカフェ+万座毛+御菓子御殿をめぐる1日観光 夕食付きプランもあり<入場券付き/那覇発/2歳以下無料
A tour that was healed by the guide's hospitality.
ガイドさんのホスピタリティに癒されたツアー
Activity Date: 2016/04/07 | Posted on: 2016/04/09

The weather was pleasantly warm for April, and there were a total of 17 people on the tour. Throughout the trip, I was comforted by the attentiveness of our guide, Touma. The driver, Chinen, was also very friendly, which contributed to the great atmosphere of the tour. The first stop was Kouri Island, a beach where nature still remains. Although the beach season hadn't started yet, we were able to get close to the sandy shore and feel the waters of Okinawa.

This was a return visit to the Churaumi Aquarium, but on the way, I was able to see the emerald green sea shining from the car window and take photos, which left me in awe of its beauty. The photo is of our guide in front of the entrance to the Churaumi Aquarium, and he had a very cheerful expression. Inside the vehicle, he played the sanshin and sang famous Okinawan songs (like "Asada" and "Nada Sousou"), and he shared stories about Okinawa while mimicking his grandmother's voice, providing excellent service and being a wonderful person.

I have experienced various guides and tour conductors both domestically and internationally, but those who have a genuine desire to host their guests leave a lasting impression and make the travel memories even more profound. One disappointment was that our stay at Ryukyu Village was short, and we could only see one event (a 10-minute Ryukyu dance). It would have been better if the time allocation allowed us to see at least two events. On the way back, we were able to make a stop at Makishi Park, which was not listed in the itinerary, so that was a nice bonus. I would love to participate in another tour with such wonderful staff. Thank you very much.

お天気は4月にしては暑いくらいの好天、総勢17名のツアーでした。終始ガイド・とうまさんの気配りに癒されました。ドライバーさん(知念さん)も愛想の良い方で、ツアーの雰囲気が良かったです。最初に訪れた古宇利島は未だ自然が残る海水浴場で、海開きはしていませんでしたが、砂浜まで近づいて沖縄の海を感じることができました。美ら海水族館は再訪になりますが、道中エメラルドグリーンに輝く海を車窓から見る&写真を撮ることができ、その美しさに感動しました。写真はガイドさんで美ら海水族館の入口前で記念撮影したものですが、とてもにこやかな表情で、車内では三線を引きながら沖縄の名曲(童歌・あさだ・涙そうそう等)を歌ってくれたり、出身地のおばあの声を真似して沖縄の話をしてくれたり、サービス満点で素敵な方でした。国内外でいろいろなガイドさん・添乗員さんの接客を経験していますが、やはりお客様をもてなす気持ちがある方は印象に残り、旅の思い出をより一層感慨深いものにしてくれると思います。残念だったのは、琉球村の滞在時間が短くて、イベントが一つ(琉球舞踊10分)しか見られなかったこと。せめて二つ位イベントが見られるように時間配分をしてくれるともっと良かったと思います。帰路、日程表に記載がない宿泊先近くの牧志公園でも途中下車できたので、それも助かりました。またこういう素敵な乗務員のツアーに参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました。

A bus tour that takes you to various places, and I am very satisfied!
色々行けて大満足なバスツアー
Activity Date: 2016/04/09 | Posted on: 2016/04/09

The time allocation was just right, allowing us to visit various places, and I was very satisfied with the cost of the bus tour! We spent 20 minutes on Kouri Island, which was enjoyable enough to play on the beach in April. We also had plenty of time to leisurely explore the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium! For lunch, I thought we might not have much time, but I was able to enjoy delicious taco rice while watching the fish at the aquarium! The subsequent visit to the Okashi Goten was great, with lots of snacks available, and we had 30 minutes to enjoy some tastings. Personally, I found the final stop at Ryukyu Mura to be very fun! We could see various types of traditional houses, there were cows and goats, and we could take pictures with them. The area was filled with greenery, flowers, and butterflies, making it very rich in experiences. There were also activities like painting shisa, weaving, and trying out the sanshin, which were all incredibly fun and highly recommended! The guide for this bus tour, Ms. Higa, was charming and taught us folk songs and dances, as well as performed kamishibai, so we were never bored during the travel time! I would love to participate again. Thank you!

時間配分もちょうどよく、色々まわれて、金額的にも大満足なバスツアーでした!
古宇利島は20分でしたが、4月なので足を付けて浜で遊ぶ程度には楽しかったです。美ら海水族館も自由にゆっくり回れました!お昼ごはんも、あまり時間がないのかと思ってましたが、水族館で魚を見ながらおいしいタコライスを食べることができました!その後の御菓子御殿は、たくさんのお菓子があり、30分なので試食も楽しめました。個人的には最後の琉球村が、とても楽しかったです!昔の色んな種類の民家を見ることが出来たり、牛やヤギがいて、一緒に写真を撮れたり、緑や花や蝶もたくさんでとにかく盛りだくさんでした。シーサーに色を塗ったり、機織りものをしたり、三線を体験できるコーナーなどもあり、すごく楽しかったしおすすめです!
今回のバスツアーのガイドの比嘉さんも可愛らしく、民謡や、踊りを教えてくれたり、紙芝居をしてくださったり、盛りだくさんなので、移動時間もまったく飽きることがなかったです!
また参加したいです。ありがとうございました!

Comfortable bus tour
快適バスツアー
Activity Date: 2016/04/06 | Posted on: 2016/04/07

On April 6th, my family participated in a sightseeing bus tour in Osaka. I was worried about the weather, but we were blessed with clear skies that day. Most participants gathered on time, and we departed as scheduled. I think there was about a 50/50 mix of Japanese and foreign tourists. Foreign participants were given smartphones with a guide function, while Japanese participants received explanations from the guide. The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and I was able to reaffirm the history and culture of Osaka.

Although I have visited Osaka many times, I usually travel by subway or train, so the bus tour felt refreshing and was a great way to get a sense of the area. I could feel the atmosphere of the city and its lively nature. The tour bus was clean, the driving was careful, and being a double-decker bus added to the sense of openness. My family and I wondered how a tour would be on a rainy day. In any case, the meeting place was easy to find, making it a "comfortable!" tour.

4月6日、大阪市内観光バスツアーに家族で参加しました。天候を心配したのですが、当日は
晴天に恵まれました。集合の時間に参加者ほとんどが揃って定時の出発となりました。
日本人の方と外国人観光客の方が半分くらいの割合だったと思います。
外国人の方にはガイド機能付きのスマホが渡され、日本人に対してはガイドさんの説明という
流れでした。ガイドさんの説明は分かり易く、大阪の街の歴史や文化を再確認できました。
また、何度も訪れている大阪ですが、地下鉄や電車で移動することが多いためバスでのツアー
は新鮮で、土地勘を確かめることのできる手段だと思いました。
大阪の街の雰囲気や賑やかな様子を感じることができました。ツアーバスもキレイで運転も
ていねいで二階建てということもあり、開放感もありました。雨の日のツアーはどのように
なるのかな?と家族皆で話しました。とにかく集合場所も分かり易く、「快適!」なツアー
です。

Thank you for riding with OSAKA SKY VISTA. We are also delighted to receive your kind comments. We hope you enjoyed the views and breeze unique to our open-top double-decker bus. Unfortunately, during rainy weather, we must operate with the roof closed (we provide raincoats for light rain). In addition to the Minami course, we also have the Kita course, which allows you to enjoy a different side of Osaka, including Osaka Castle. We look forward to welcoming you again. Thank you very much.

This is my second time participating, and each time the water buffalo is different, which makes it enjoyable. The weather was really nice for this event. My elementary school daughter was delighted to ride with the handsome Yujiro. We had a great time while being healed by the sounds of Okinawan folk songs. I would love to participate again.

大阪市内観光バス 2階建オープンデッキバスで巡る名所の数々!ダイナミックな景観と季節の風を感じながら360度パノラマ観光!<大阪駅発>
Double-decker open-top bus tour of Osaka City with my grandchild.
孫と巡る大阪市内観光2階建オープンデッキバス
Activity Date: 2016/03/30 | Posted on: 2016/04/03

At the end of March, I went to Osaka with my grandson, who had just graduated from elementary school. Until now, we had often participated in day trips together, but this time we discussed everything, including transportation arrangements, hotel, and itinerary, together, incorporating each other's wishes while also considering my health. The main event this time was undoubtedly the city tour of Osaka by open-deck bus, scheduled for the second day. My grandson, who loves vehicles, was thrilled and looking forward to it.

On the much-anticipated day, being unfamiliar with the area, we left the hotel early and arrived at the meeting place an hour ahead of time. I felt relieved that we could arrive early rather than wandering around and getting lost in an unfamiliar place. The bus departed as scheduled at 10:30 AM on the "Namba Route." We had the front seats, and the view from the double-decker bus was magnificent, with the refreshing morning breeze flowing through the bus.

Since it was my grandson's first time in Osaka, he was very excited, looking to the right and left as the guide explained things, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Since we usually live separately, it felt like a long time since I had seen him so happy and enjoying himself, and I was truly glad we came together.

Along the way, I couldn't help but take a picture of the cherry blossoms, which were about 30-40% in bloom. After departing from Umeda and passing through Midosuji, the 60-minute "Namba Route" tour ended in no time while we were excitedly sightseeing in Osaka. My grandson seemed to want to stay on the bus a little longer, but he was still very happy and satisfied.

3月末、小学校を卒業した 男の子の孫を連れて 大阪に出かけました。
今まで 日帰りツアーには 二人でよく参加していたのですが 今回は交通の手配から ホテル 日程など 全て孫と二人で話し合い お互いの希望を入れつつ 私の体調も考えた上で スケジュールを組みました。そして今回のメインイベントは 何と言っても 二日目に予定していた オープンデッキバスによる 大阪市内観光です。乗り物の大好きな孫は 大喜びで とても楽しみにしていました。そして 待ちに待った当日、地理に疎い私たちは 早めにホテルを出て 一時間も前に 集合場所に着いてしまいました。慣れない土地でうろうろと迷子になるよりは 早めに着くことが出来 ほっと一安心でした。
バスは予定通り10時30分 「なんばルート」が 出発しました。座席は一番前の席で 2階建てバスからの眺めは とても雄大で 朝のすがすがしい風が バスの中を通りぬけて行きました。
大阪が初めての孫は ガイドさんの説明に 右を見たり左側を見上げたりと とても興奮して 目が輝いていました。普段は別々に暮らしていますので このように 楽しそうに、嬉しそうな顔を見るのは 久々だった様な気がして 一緒に来て良かったと心の底から 嬉しく成りました。
途中3から4分咲きの 桜の花に 思わずシャッターを押してしまいました。
梅田を出発し 御堂筋を通り 大阪市内を興奮しながら観光している間に 60分の「なんばルート」は あっという間に終わってしまいました。
孫はもう少しバスに乗っていたかった様ですが それでも大喜びで 満足そうでした。

You can make the most of your limited time on the islands! You can see mangroves, ride a water buffalo cart, search for star sand, and do various activities, allowing you to efficiently enjoy the highlights. However, please note that this tour may not be suitable for those who want to spend a leisurely time on the islands.

Activity Date: 2016/03/05 | Posted on: 2016/03/29

I used this service on my last day in Okinawa. Although it was a short time, the guide (not a tour conductor) provided a thorough tour of the southern attractions. It was an efficient way to explore, and in the end, they even took us to the airport, making it a really great deal for the price. If I had to mention something, it's that if you spend too long in the caves at Okinawa World, you won't have enough time to leisurely explore the various experience zones and shops afterward, so be careful about that. Also, the roads around the airport can get congested, so I think it's wise to allow some extra time for your return flight.

沖縄最終日に利用しました。短時間ではありますが、南部の観光地をガイドさん(添乗員さんではなく)が丁寧なガイドをしてくださいました。効率よく回れてしかも、最終的には空港まで届けてくれるので、本当にこの値段?というくらいお得なツアーでした。しいて言えば、沖縄ワールドであまり鍾乳洞に長くいると、その後の様々な体験ゾーンやお店をゆっくり回ることができないので気を付けたほうが良いです。また、空港周辺は道が渋滞することもあるので帰路のフライト時刻には余裕をもたせておいたほうが安心だと思います。

Okinawa Day Tour to Churaumi Aquarium, Cape Manzamo, and Nago Pineapple Park
A bit disappointed
Activity Date: 2015/07/09 | Posted on: 2016/03/28

The tour was a bit of a rush.

For the butterflies, we had to eat our Okinawa Soba very fast to get some time to enjoy them. No guide or signs to guide you, it was hard to know where to go.
The Aquarium was really nice, there was enough time to enjoy it.

The Pineapple Park visit was really disappointing : we had a 5 minutes tour in Japanese to end up in the park's shop. We saw basically nothing of the park, the point here was to buy stuff.

The Ryukyu Mura was a bit more interesting, but the point here was also to buy things (Okinawa Glass).

The tour is really made and thought for Japanese tourists, a pamphlet in English explaining in detail the program would have been nice and helpful, as well as a guide who could speak a bit of English.

This tour is useful to go to the Aquarium, but aside from that, not interesting at all for non-Japanese speaking tourists.

Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi Island Tour
西表・由布・竹富3島めぐり
Activity Date: 2016/03/03 | Posted on: 2016/03/28

I participated in this tour in early March. Even though it was in the Okinawa region, it still felt a bit chilly. It was great to take a small sightseeing boat to Iriomote Island and see the lush mangroves up close. We crossed to the charming and strong water buffalo cart named Shota to Yubu Island, which took about 10 minutes, and the buffalo driver sang Okinawan folk songs while playing the sanshin. On Taketomi Island, which can be circled in less than an hour by bicycle, I enjoyed cycling to Hoshizuna Beach and watching the free-roaming cows and goats. It's a simple island without any convenience stores, but that extraordinary aspect is nice. I stayed overnight on Taketomi Island, so I was able to relax. The locals mentioned that there are more tourists than residents. The tour price is a bit high, though.

3月初旬にこのツアーに参加した。沖縄地方とはいえ、まだ肌寒い感じだった。西表島へ小型遊覧船で行き、うっそうとしたマングローブを間近に見れたのはよかった。遠浅の由布島へは可愛く力強いショウタという水牛車で渡り、乗車時間は10分程だが、牛使いのおじさんが三線を鳴らしながら沖縄民謡を歌ってくれた。自転車で一周しても一時間もかからない竹富島では、サイクリングをして星砂浜へ行ったり、牛やヤギの放し飼いを見たり楽しんだ。コンビニもない素朴な島だが、その非日常的な所がいいだろう。竹富島で一泊したので、ゆっくりできた。住民より観光客の方が多いと島の人が話していた。少々、ツアーの値段が高いなあ。

Tokyo 1-Day Bus Tour with Tokyo Skytree & Tokyo Bay Cruise
Fewer stops with more in-depth guidance needed
Activity Date: 2016/03/24 | Posted on: 2016/03/28

To begin with let me highlight an important aspect of the day that may have caused our experience to be inferior. The weather on the day we took the tour was dull and raining at some of the spots

The tour is ideal for people who want to do a self-guided style tour covering most important sites of Tokyo. Since this was our first time we felt that with little guidance from the guide we were basically just strolling around and checking things ourselves

The tour started off with the Imperial Palace east garden. We just strolled past some part, took pics and we're back in the bus. Along the way we passed by some of the districts and the audio guide was helpful in understanding some aspects. But definitely nothing close to having a guide who will explain things. Next we got down at Sensoji shrine but without any guidance just pretty much strolled around. Would have liked to get some history and perspective on the structure.

The outer fish market was extremely boring - it's basically like any other market. Would have loved if the tour gave a peek into the inner market though which surely is more interesting ! Then was the Odaiba cruise which was average.

The best part of the tour was the lunch. It was an American diner with a wide spread of options from Italian to Chinese to a few Turkish dishes. Oh not to forget the traditional Japanese cuisine too.

The guide we felt was a bit inexpeienced but definitely did make our journey comfortable. She was also very accommodating and flexible

Wish this tour was as awesome as the Mt. Fuji one by the same tour company

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village
It was as awesome as it could get !
Activity Date: 2016/03/25 | Posted on: 2016/03/28

Let me start by saying a few words about our wonderful guides - Mario and Rick. They went out of their way to ensure that all the folks enjoyed the tour. They were patience and made sure to accommodate various needs of people. Moreover they also had excellent recommendations for things to do in Japan, places to eat etc.

Our first stop at the Lake was for 20 minutes or so - sufficient to take good pictures of Mt. Fuji against the lake's backdrop. As per Rick's reco we had the blueberry ice cream and it was fantastic !

Our next stop the 7 ponds was amazing too and we could grab a few souvenirs here. The clear water in the ponds and the beautiful fish within made it a worthy sight !

Next we stopped at Ninja Village for lunch. The lunch was set menu traditional Japanese lunch with ample chicken and fish options.Since it was set before we arrived it had got a bit cold. But I guess that saved some time and we could spare the remaining 30-35 mins hanging around the village.

The next and most awaited stop was the 4th station at Mt Fuji. Due to weather conditions we could not go up to the 5th station. The guides were very transparent in this regard and already briefed us earlier about it. Since it was snowing the views were completely blocked.

The final destination was the 4D tour at Fuji highlands. Going into it I was highly skeptical that it might be just one of those Star War 4D rides at Disney. But to our surprise it was much more than that. The 4D ride was thrilling and the views of My Fuji that we missed in reality we could see them here. All the four season views through animation were breathtaking !!

Overall we could not have asked for a better trip ! It was probably one of the most fun days in our Japan trip ! Thanks Japan Panoramic Tours for making it such an enjoyable and memorable experience for us

My boyfriend came visited me from Philly during spring break so I wanted to book a tour for the two of us to get out of Tokyo for one day. The tour guides were super friendly and helpful. I loved the way the tour was planned out. It came to several places within an efficient amount of time so that you could get the most out of a day trip without feeling too exhausted/ too bored. Lake Kawaguchi was beautiful! We could see Mt. Fuji clearly. Although we could not get to the fifth station at Mt. Fuji, we still managed to get to 4th station. We came back to Tokyo around 5pm, which was great because then we could still explore Tokyo at night. In short, please book this tour for beautiful memories and convenience because you don't have to do anything pretty much and just enjoy the time with your accompanies.

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village
Good day tour for mt Fuji sightsee
Activity Date: 2016/03/22 | Posted on: 2016/03/22
Tay

The tour is a good overview for people who just wants a day trip to mt Fuji and can't spend more time there. Tourist who doesn't have too much time and can't spend a night near the area.

A beautiful view of mt Fuji can be taken at the lake. Very nice.

The village gives another experience, supposedly one can see the making of soba, there is also a Japanese garden near the bus drop off pt,

The ninja village is ok. Lunch is abit disappointing, it's cold because they prepared earlier. Be prepared to pay more if you want to try the ninja activities. If not it will be just a walk in the 'park' and a place for hot spring for the feet.

5th station stop was abit too short as we had only 5mins which wasn even enough for toliet. But this was due to the jam traffic .

The tour ends off with a stimulation ride of mt Fuji.

Overall, the guides are nice and the tour was well-planned.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)
Hop on and Off in Tokyo
Activity Date: 2016/03/18 | Posted on: 2016/03/21

What a great way to tour and navigate around the tourist spots of Tokyo. The open top makes for good views of the city and landscape. We took full advantage of the 1 day pass, hopping off at different points in the city. We started Friday afternoon until Saturday afternoon. Our favorite stop was Asakusa Kanakawado the closest stop to the Senso-ji Temple. We ended up there both days to see even more sites. The wait time between buses was enough to explore and hop back on. Three routes cover a vast area and you probably need more than a day pass. This is a great way to maximize your time in Toyko, you don’t have to figure out a complicated metro map or wonder when you get out of the metro station which direction your destination is in. The audio guide was informative and staff member was available to answer your questions. For those who like the double-decker bus experience, you won't be disappointed.

【ベストプライス】竹富島日帰り観光ツアー 水牛車で楽しむ竹富島での過ごし方<半日/指定ホテルお送り>
I went to the port by myself.
港まで自力で行ったので
Activity Date: 2016/03/16 | Posted on: 2016/03/18

The hotel is located outside the city, so it might not have been necessary to make a reservation for the pickup. If you're planning to ride a bicycle for a long time, it might be cheaper to book it as a package. However, if you're only planning to use the bicycle for about an hour, I think the basic fee would be almost the same. I have no complaints about the tour content! You should definitely make a trip to Taketomi Island.

ホテルが市外で、お迎えなしになってしまったので、わざわざ申し込まなくてもよかったのかもしれないです。
自転車で長時間乗るのであればセットで申し込んでおいたほうが、安いのかもしれません。
自転車1時間かそこらの予定であれば基本料金とほぼ変わらないかと思いました。
ツアー内容には不満ありません!竹富島には是非足を延ばすべきです。

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)
Awesome way to see Tokyo in a short space of time.
Activity Date: 2016/03/10 | Posted on: 2016/03/18

The ticket we bought was valid for 24 hours so we used it for 2 days. We started at 4 in the afternoon and continued on until the next day. The service was very efficient. I missed the bus in just a matter of 30 seconds as it drove right past me. I was not prepared to run after it. It was no big deal as I caught the next one since I was in no rush. I had a schedule with me so I was able to get a nice cup of coffee and shopped for a bit and made sure I was there at least 10 minutes before schedule! You need to plan your route and sight seeing carefully.

I went on 2 routes. The Tokyo Sky Tree and the Odaiba route. Both had their own charms. Would recommend the Odaiba route after sunset and the Sky tree route during the day. The Odaiba route was very scenic at night because of the rainbow bridge , Tokyo Tower and the skyline was just breath taking. Hopped off at the Tokyo Sky Tree the next day. Went up the tower for the amazing view. I was there pretty early I suppose hence the queue was not bad at all. The stop was pretty close by and if you could not find your way back to the bus stop, just ask people around you. Everyone was extremely helpful. Japanese would go out of their way to show you where the bus stop is. They would physically bring you there. You just tell them it’s the sky hop on hop off bus and they will bring you there.

If you are tight for time, and want to see as much of Tokyo as you can in that short period of time, this would be your best shot. I had a great time. My time in Tokyo was limited so I was glad I got on this tour bus.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)
A convenient way to see Tokyo in 24 hours with kids in tow.
Activity Date: 2016/03/10 | Posted on: 2016/03/18

The one we got on was an open top. Super punctual. The bus would be comfortable on a good day since there are no seats available downstairs. Therefore there’s limited space when it rains. Only 4 seats in the front row is covered while the rest is open hence the chances of getting those 4 seats? Very very very slim. And those who gets the seats in front would not hop off the bus. Our experience was 2 teenagers hogged all 4 front row seats to themselves.
Apart from the rain, it would have been a wonderful experience. You get to see so many interesting sites which we would not have seen by metro underground such as the Tokyo tower, the rainbow bridge, and the sky tree. This would have been the perfect tour on a lovely sunny weather. We sat towards the front of the bus… so we were sheltered from the strong winds, not the rain. I could not imagine sitting in the back in the wet, cold and with the freezing wind blowing. I glad we got shielded from the wind at least. However we saw some Japanese school kids at the back having an awesome time with the strong wind blowing in their faces, taking selfies, laughing and having so much fun.
The bus was not full perhaps because of the weather. We had 3 children under 5 in which we bought tickets for them too because if you do not, they would have to be seated on your lap. However if you have hyper active children… perhaps being on your lap could be a safer choice. Our kids enjoyed the ride and the view. When they are tired, they could just sleep comfortably leaning on you without falling over as the bus ride was very smooth! The driver was excellent. Even my daughter who is prone to motion sickness felt super.
Overall, it was a good experience. The commentary played correctly, at the correct venue and it was pretty informative. The adults appreciated the commentary while the kids enjoyed the view.

The guide was very helpful and spoke perfect English. Although I could not see Mt. fuji due to the bad weather, the service was really good and we had yum traditional Japanese lunch. And the last section 'Fuji Airways' was a big surprise, i have never expected it could be that awesome! I think i will definitely join this tour again in a nice weather day^^

Tokyo 1-Day Bus Tour with Tokyo Skytree & Tokyo Bay Cruise
Quick and good for shopping
Posted on: 2016/03/17

This tour was a little different, as you get free time to explore the various areas without a guide (they can give helpful tips but don't walk with you) and then meet up again. I liked this, because I could see exactly what I wanted and try lots of sweets. It was nice to be able to choose the drop-off location,very convenient. We had good weather too, lucky!

It was fun!

Activity Date: 2016/03/16 | Posted on: 2016/03/16

The lack of a roof and the high position provided a great view. When we drove on the Metropolitan Expressway, it was thrilling and really raised my spirits. We stopped for a while where we could see the Tokyo Skytree straight ahead, so we were able to take some great photos. However, you need to dress warmly because it gets cold with the wind rushing by.

屋根が無く、高い位置なので、眺めはとても良かったです。
首都高速道路を走った時は、迫力があってテンションが上がりました。スカイツリーが正面に見える所で長めに止まったので、写真もバッチリ撮れました。
ただ、防寒はしっかりしていないと、風を切って走るので寒いです。

【ベストプライス】西表・由布・竹富島 日帰りツアー マングローブ遊覧+水牛車+選べる竹富島での過ごし方(レンタサイクル他)<1日/昼食付>
I participated in February 2016.
2016年2月に参加しました
Activity Date: 2016/02/12 | Posted on: 2016/03/16

I participated with my 0-year-old and 2-year-old children. Due to the timing, there were many tourists from the Chinese-speaking regions, and the tour was very crowded, but we were able to efficiently visit three islands. There was a strong wind blowing, typical of the early spring, so the ferry ride from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island was quite rough. I recommend bringing motion sickness medication as a precaution. On the way back, there was a bus that took us from the ferry terminal to the hotel, running once an hour, and we were able to board without a reservation, so we did some shopping in the area before returning to the hotel.

0歳と2歳の子連れで参加しました。時期的に中華圏からの観光客の方が多く、ツアーも非常に混んでいましたが、効率よく3島めぐりをすることができました。ちょうど春一番の強風が吹き荒れていたので、石垣島から西表島までのフェリーの揺れは凄まじいものがありました。酔い止めはお守りかわりとしても持参することをお勧めします。帰りは、フェリー乗り場からホテルまで送ってくれるバスが1時間に1本あり、予約なしで乗れたので、周辺で買い物をしてからホテルに戻りました。

世界文化遺産「斎場御獄」+選べる4コースおきなわワールド or ガンガラーの谷 or 新原ビーチ 半日観光バスツアー<那覇発・那覇空港お送り可/3歳以下無料>
The departure is early, but
出発は早いけど
Activity Date: 2016/02/15 | Posted on: 2016/03/12

The meeting time is early, but as I boarded the bus and dozed off, we arrived at "Saijō Gushikawa." It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the parking lot to the entrance. Inside, we watched a brief introductory video before heading into the forest. It is open to the public now, but it was not for a while, and I’m not sure if it will remain accessible in the future. I'm glad I got to see it now.

At Shinbara Beach, I took a glass-bottom boat and saw many tropical fish. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, but I think the beach view would be amazing if it were sunny.

No matter how many times I visit the Himeyuri Tower, it conveys something that words cannot express.

This tour is fulfilling for the price, and you can also disembark at the airport, so why not experience the history of Okinawa?

集合時間は早いですが、バスに乗り込みウトウトしていると「斎場御嶽」に到着。駐車場から入口までは10分ほど歩きます。中で簡単な紹介ビデオを見て、森の中へ。今は公開されていますが、少し前までは非公開、この先もずっと見られるかわかりません。今見られて良かったです。
新原ビーチではグラスボートに乗り、たくさんの熱帯魚が見られました。あいにく曇りでしたが、晴れていたら、ビーチの景色も最高だと思います。
ひめゆりの塔は何度行っても言葉では伝えられないものが胸に迫ります。
このお値段で充実のツアー、空港下車もできますので、沖縄の歴史を感じてみてはいかがでしょうか。

We had a great time although the guide spoke only japanese (and the Bus video was in chinese).
The aquarium is just great, the other stops were nice but not too important ;)
If you are hungry westeners like us, bring something to eat (or buy at the aquarium cafe) because lunch will not fill your stomach.

For this price I can highly recommend the tour :)
