Japan
Ishigaki Island has a comprehensive bus system, making it useful for sightseeing. However, the fares are high, so the free pass is very convenient.
石垣島はバスが一通り網羅してるので、観光にも使えます。ただ運賃は高いので、フリーパスが凄く便利です。
There are about ten buses a day to Kawahira, so it's quite convenient.
川平行きのバスは1日十本ぐらいは有るので、結構使えます。
It was my first time entering Tsutenkaku. There was a line at the ticket counter, but I was able to skip the wait with my ticket. Inside Tsutenkaku, there were various exhibits that I found interesting. There were also some entertaining features in the elevator to keep the passengers amused for a little while. Although I didn't try it, it seems there are experiences like sliding down a slide from the second floor and bungee jumping as well.
通天閣の中に入るのは初めてでした。
チケットを買うところで列ができていたので、こちらのチケットで並ばずに済みました。
通天閣の中にはさまざまな展示があり、興味深かったです。エレベーターの中の少し時間にも乗っている人を楽しませる工夫がありました。
私はやりませんでしたが、2階から滑り台で降りる体験やバンジージャンプなどもあるみたいす。
I recommend comfortable shoes for walking.
歩きやすい靴がおすすめです。
This year alone, I have purchased tickets 6.7 times. They are truly wonderful tickets. I look forward to your continued support next year as well.
今年だけでも6.7回、買わせて頂きました。本当に素晴らしいチケットです。来年もよろしくお願い致します。
Taking the ferry is a long journey of three hours, but since it takes half that time to arrive, I was able to make effective use of my time and enjoy sightseeing in Nagasaki for longer.
フェリーだと3時間の長旅ですが、その半分の時間で着くので、時間を有効活用できて長崎の観光を長く楽しめました。
I was able to visit all the places I wanted in one day. I also got to try the Tsutenkaku Slider, which I had been curious about for a while. I don't have any photos, but I also visited the Kaiyodo Museum. I used the train quite a bit and managed to visit four facilities, so I definitely got my money's worth. However, since I purchased tickets for two people together, it was a hassle for one person to handle everything when getting on the train.
1日で自分の行きたい所が廻れた。
前から気になっていた通天閣スライダーも出来たし、写真はないけど、海洋堂ミュージアムも行けました。
電車もかなり使い、施設も4ヶ所行けたので、かなり元は取れました。
ただ、2人分をまとめて取ったので、電車に乗る際、1人が全てやるのは面倒でした。
I recommend taking them separately instead of taking them for two people.
2人分を取るのではなく、別々に取るのを進めます。
If you purchase in advance, you won't need to settle cash payments each time, which is convenient. However, the number of buses between tourist spots is not very high, so it's difficult to just hop on one spontaneously.
事前に購入しておけば都度現金精算が不要なので楽です。
ただし観光地間のバスの本数は多くないので、ふらっと乗るのは難しいです。
I took a ferry to Goto and returned by jet foil. In terms of price, the ferry is cheaper, but the jet foil is absolutely worth it. It's fast and comfortable to ride. It justifies the double price difference.
五島へ行きはフェリー、帰りはジェットフォイルでした。価格的にはフェリーですが、絶対的にジェットです。早くて乗って楽です。倍の価格差を吸収します。
The emerald blue beauty of Irabu Island and Miyako Island was exceptional, and the explanations provided by our driver were both thorough and enjoyable, making it a memorable trip.
伊良部島や宮古島の海のエメラルドブルーの美しさも格別でしたが、案内してくださったドライバーさんの解説も丁寧で楽しくて、思い出残る旅になりました。
There are plenty of highlights, so a minimum of four hours is necessary for the course.
見どころはいっぱいなので
最低四時間のコースは必要です。
I was able to use my points, so it was more economical than buying tickets on-site! The ticket exchange was smooth, and there were no particular issues.
I highly recommend using your accumulated points! ♪
ポイントが利用できたので、現地でそのままチケットを買うよりもお得でした!
チケットの引き換えもスムーズでしたし、特に問題ありませんでした。
貯まっているポイントの消費にもおすすめです♪
Convenient! Since I came alone, I thought renting a car for five days would be expensive, so I took the bus instead! In the end, it was the right choice!! I could drink beer while looking at the ocean, and taking the bus was great!
便利!一人旅で来たのでレンタカーを5日借りるのはお金かかるなーと思ってバスにしました!結果、正解!!海を見ながらビールも飲めるしバスでよかった!
This time I traveled alone, so a free pass was an essential item. I think it would also be great to have it as an option for company trips with free time.
今回は一人旅だったのでフリーパスは必須アイテムです。
会社の慰安旅行にも自由行動のアイテムにあればと思います。
It was my first time using a sightseeing taxi, and I was a bit nervous, but the driver was incredibly friendly and fun, making the experience enjoyable and completely satisfying until the end. I requested a 10-hour tour, and not only did he take me to all the places I wanted to visit, like Kouri Island, the World Heritage sites, and Yachimun no Sato, but he also shared breathtaking spots and recommended attractions that only a driver would know. It was a 120% fulfilling experience of Okinawa sightseeing! 😆 I would love to request the same driver again! 😁
観光タクシー初めてで、緊張してたのですが、運転手さんがすごく気さくでそして楽しい方で最後まで楽しく大満足です。
10時間お願いして、古宇利島、世界遺産、やちむんの里、万座毛など行きたい所に案内してくれるのはもちろんのこと、運転手さんだから知っている絶景スポットや、おすすめ観光地を教えてくれて120%満喫した沖縄観光でした😆
また、同じ運転手さんにお願いしたいです😁
I think it's a good idea to factor in that the roads in Naha get congested in the evening when planning your sightseeing.
那覇の夕方は道が混み合うのでそこも計算に入れて観光したらいいと思います
I requested a tour of World Heritage sites in 8 hours. The driver always drove safely and explained the tourist attractions and famous local spots along the way. They also guided us to a restaurant for lunch, which was very helpful. We had interesting conversations about Okinawan culture, customs, and food, which made it a lot of fun. I also tried the local awamori recommended by the driver at a local izakaya (it was delicious). Since we couldn't visit all the World Heritage sites, I plan to request this service again the next time I go.
8時間で世界遺産巡りをお願いしました。
常に安全運転で、道々観光名所や地域の有名所をご説明していただきました。
お昼のレストランも案内していただき、助かりました。
沖縄の文化や習慣、また食べ物の話など、興味深いお話もでき、大変楽しかったです。
ドライバーさんオススメの泡盛も、地元の居酒屋さんで試してみました。(美味しかったです)
すべての世界遺産を回れなかったので、次回行ったときには、またお願いしようと思います。
I highly recommend it for those who do not drive.
車を運転されない方にはぜひオススメです。
I boarded while having breakfast (with the bread and coffee I brought).
During the trip to the island, I read a novel, and before I knew it, I had arrived in no time at all, haha.
But it was an amazing time!!
朝ごはんを食べながら(持ち込んだパンとコーヒー)、乗船させて頂きました!
あらに移動中に小説を読みながらの移動でしたが、、、ま〜〜〜〜あ、あっという間に着いてしまいました笑
でも最高な時間でした!!
I was on the first flight in the morning, but please enjoy at various times!!
私は朝一の便でしたが、いろんな時間で楽しんでください!!
It was the right choice to use a sightseeing taxi for our trip with my parents. We had planned to see the three major bridges and have a Miyako beef steak lunch in five hours, but we were able to stop at several spots along the way, making our time on Miyako Island very enjoyable. Thank you very much.
両親との旅行で移動手段を観光タクシーにしたのは正解でした。
5時間で3大大橋と宮古牛ステーキランチの予定でしたが、道中でいくつものスポットに寄っていただき、宮古島を大変楽しめました。ありがとうございました。
I think renting a car is the norm, but there are many narrow and winding roads, so it was reassuring to have a driver who is familiar with the roads of Miyako Island.
レンタカー移動が主流かと思いますが、細い道や曲がりくねった道も多く、宮古島の道に慣れている運転手さんにお願いするのは安心感がありました。
Since I took the ferry both ways, it took some time, but it was a relaxing experience. In the second-class dormitory, they provide blankets and pillows, which makes it comfortable.
行き帰りともフェリーにしたので、時間はかかりますがのんびりとした時間でした。
雑魚寝2等は毛布と枕を貸していただけるので快適です。
It was a relaxing boat trip on a second-class sleeping sheet. You can borrow blankets and pillows, so it's comfortable to spend time there. There are also chair seats available.
2等雑魚寝シートでのんびりとした船旅でした。毛布と枕を借りることができるので快適に過ごせます。椅子の席もあります。
I used it from the airport. When I showed the voucher to the driver, I was immediately given a ticket valid for 24 hours. I used it from the airport to the bus terminal → Kawahira → bus terminal, and it was quite a good deal.
空港から利用しました。バウチャーを運転手さんに見せると24時間有効のチケットをすぐに渡してもらえました。空港からバスターミナル→川平→バスターミナルで利用しましたがかなりお得になりました。
This reservation does not come with any special discounts.
I exchanged my round-trip tickets that I had reserved in advance at the summit station.
At the summit station, there are two options for purchasing tickets: at the ticket counter and at the ticket vending machines. Those who made reservations in advance need to exchange their tickets at the counter.
I had to line up with new purchasers at the counter, but it was relatively smooth to secure tickets with a reservation and pre-payment.
That said, many of the people purchasing at the counter were foreign tourists and tour operators, so you should be prepared for a certain amount of waiting time.
For those who accumulate points through websites or credit cards, it feels like a good deal since you can earn some points, even if it's just a little.
By the way, as for activities, the ropeway at Kankakei in late November is at its peak for autumn leaves. I felt like I wanted to stay on the ropeway forever.
本予約は特に割引になるというものではありません。
私は山頂駅で事前に予約していた往復チケットを引き換えました。
山頂駅でのチケット購入は、窓口と券売機の2パターンあり、事前予約者は窓口での引き換えでした。
窓口で購入する新規購入者の列と一緒に並ぶ必要がありましたが、予約・事前決済で比較的スムーズにチケットを確保することが可能となります。
とはいえ、窓口で購入する方の多くは外国人観光客とツアー担当者だったためある程度の待ち時間は覚悟しなければいけません。
サイトやクレジットカードのポイントを貯めている方にとっては、多少にはなりますが得られるポイント分はお得になるといった印象です。
ちなみに、アクティビティとしては11月末の寒霞渓のロープウェイはまさに紅葉の見頃。いつまでも、ロープウェイに乗っていたいと感じるほどでした。
During the busy season, from around noon to 2 PM, it gets crowded not only with domestic tourists but also with foreign visitors. Naturally, the cable car often reaches its full capacity of 40 people,
繁忙期はお昼から午後2時くらいは、国内だけでなく外国人の観光客でごった返します。当然ロープウェイも定員一杯の40人になることも少なくありませんので、窓際をキープ出来る場所取りが重要だと思いました。
In April this year, I went sightseeing in Miyako Island with a rental car. This time, I wanted to show my sister the beautiful Miyako Island by taking a cruise ship, so I requested a sightseeing taxi. We were blessed with good weather, and our driver, Mr. Anzai, was very kind. He took us to places like Higashi-Hennazaki, Yonaha Maehama, Kurima Bridge, and Irabu Island, and even to some hidden gems. We were able to take a lot of photos. It created wonderful memories, and my sister was very happy. I was so glad to have met such a great driver. Thank you very much!
今年 4月にレンタカーで宮古島観光をしました。
今回は、クルーズ船に 乗って綺麗な宮古島を姉に見せたくて 観光タクシーをお願いしました 天気にも恵まれ 運転手さんのあんざいさんが親切で 東平安名崎 与那覇前浜 来間大橋 伊良部島 穴場にも連れて行って貰えて 写真もいっぱい撮って頂きました。
良い思い出ができ 姉も喜んでいました。
良い運転手さんに 巡り会えて最高でした
ありがとうございました。
The inconvenience of Ishigaki is the bus schedule and transfers. On the first day, I finished my main objective, but on the fourth day, I was able to make a bit of a loop around Ishigaki with a repurchase! The East Bus staff were also very helpful in explaining everything, which made me feel at ease!
石垣の不便さはバスの時間乗り継ぎです。
1日目は一番の目的を果たすで終わってましたが、4日目の再購入で石垣やや一周を果たせました!
東バスさんも丁寧に説明してくれるので安心でした!
Checking the time and schedule is quite necessary. The Ishigaki Island limestone cave has very few buses and is difficult to access. Other tourist spots had similar issues. I prioritized completing th
時間と予定の確認がかなり必要です。
石垣島鍾乳洞はバスがほぼ無く、アクセスが悪いです。
他の観光地も同じようなことがありました。
私は一周を優先しましたので捨てるところはどんどん捨てました。
The taxi driver was friendly, which was great. This time, since I went by cruise ship, I was able to enjoy some drinks at lunch, which was nice. When I go again, I look forward to your assistance.
タクシーの運転手さんも気さくな方で良かったです。今回はクルーズ船で行ったので、お昼にお酒も飲めたので良かったです。また、行く時は、宜しくお願いします。

I'm glad I bought it because it was very convenient to use! I quickly got my money's worth by going around Ishigaki with this ticket! Since there are few buses, I recommend planning ahead.
使い勝手良かったので買ってよかったです!
このチケットで石垣一周してすぐに元取れました!バスの本数は少ないので事前に計画立てることをお勧めします
My flight was delayed, and I arrived at Ishigaki Airport! I quickly purchased my ticket through the app. After waiting for my luggage, it was nearly 5 PM. I went to the bus stop, boarded the bus, and showed my smartphone to the driver to get my ticket issued. Since I will be going to Yonaguni the next day, I will be making at least two round trips to the airport, so I feel like I’m already getting my money's worth. I didn't use it for the day I went to Hateruma Island, but places like Tamatorizaki and Kabira Park are close to the bus stops, and I also took the bus to get near the observation deck to see the emerald sea. I used it for other trips as well, but the airport line has frequent services and is very convenient, so I highly recommend it.
飛行機が遅れて石垣空港到着!
すぐにアプリでチケット購入。
手荷物待ちを入れると17時近くになり
バス乗り場へ行きバスに乗車して運転手にスマホを見せチケットを発行してもらいました。
今回は翌日に与那国に行く関係で最低でも空港2往復するのでこれだけでも元が取れる感じとなります。1日は波照間島なので利用しませんでしたが玉取崎や川平公園はバス停から近く、またエメラルドの海をみる展望台へは近くまでバス利用しました。
他にも利用しましたが空港線は便数が多く利便性がたかいのでおすすめです。
It seems that tickets cannot be purchased at late hours on the same day, so I recommend buying them early. You can purchase them even cheaper by using points or other discount coupons.
当日でも遅い時間帯はチケットが購入できないみたいですので早めに購入をおすすめします。
ポイントや他の割引券を使えば更に安く購入できます。
When I showed the driver the screen while getting on the bus, they immediately gave me a ticket! It's very convenient and user-friendly!
バスに乗車する際に運転手に画面を見せればすぐにチケットをくれました!
とても便利で使い勝手がいいです!
The weather was nice, and the sea was calm✨ It was a comfortable boat ride without any rocking.
The seats were spacious, and there was a place to store my carry-on bag, which was helpful.
天気も良く、海も静かでした✨揺れる事無く快適な船 でした
座席もゆったりしてました キャリーバック置場があったので助かりました
It only costs a little over 1000 yen for a round trip from the airport to the city center, so you can enjoy sightseeing at a very reasonable price. You need to check the bus schedule in advance.
空港から市街地への往復だけでも1000円ちょっとかかるので、とてもお得に観光できます。
バスの時刻表は事前に確認する必要はあります。
I went to Goto with the aim of visiting the ruins of Fukue Castle, one of the 100 Famous Castles of Japan. It's within walking distance from Fukue Port, and there are also the remains of samurai residences and a museum by animator Nishimura Kazuhiko, who worked on backgrounds for Studio Ghibli films. It was interesting to stroll around, and there were plenty of delicious things to try, including large fish, meat from the Buta brand, and Goto udon.
The jet foil from Nagasaki Port is convenient and makes the trip comfortable. If I have the chance to go to Goto again, I would definitely use it.
五島へは、続日本100名城の福江城跡が目当てで行きました。福江港から徒歩圏内で、武家屋敷跡やジブリの背景を手がけた山本二三さんの美術館もあり、散策するのも興味深く、お魚大きく、美豚ブランドのお肉も、五島うどんもと、美味しいものもたくさんありました。
長崎港から快適に行けるジェットフォイルは便利です。五島に行く機会があれば、また利用したいです。
Anyway, it's fast and doesn't shake. Since I took the ferry on the way there, I especially noticed the difference. One area for improvement is that the fare is high. If there are any other points for improvement, I would appreciate it.
とにかく早くて揺れません。行きがフェリーだったので特に違いをました。
改善点は運賃が高いことです。改善点があれば宜しくお願いします。
