All Reviews for Half-Day Tours

It was a short solo trip, so I didn't rent a car, but I was able to enjoy the last morning effectively in just half a day.

At the Okurayama Jump Stadium, I saw university students practicing and performing beautiful jumps. Later, I indulged in hairy crabs and oysters at the outdoor market, and on the way back, I got off at the clock tower just as the beer festival was taking place.

It turned out to be a satisfying trip on the last day.

短い時間での一人旅でしたので、レンタカーも借りておらず、
半日で最終日の午前を有効的に楽しめました。

大倉山のジャンプ台では、大学生たちが練習中で、華麗なジャンプも見られ、後半には場外市場で毛ガニや牡蛎を堪能、
帰りはちょうどビール祭りを開催中でしたので
時計台のところで下車させて頂きました。

最終日に満足な旅になりました。

When entering the water from land, there was a big splash that was impressive, and those on the outside got thoroughly soaked, resulting in everyone bursting into laughter! It was a very enjoyable tour! I want to ride again.

陸路から水に入る時には、ザブーンと水しぶきをあげ迫力があり、外側の人はしっかり濡れて皆さん爆笑！とても楽しいツアーでした！また乗りたいです。

You can go on your own, but the beauty of the tour is that the guide provides detailed explanations about the places you will visit along the way. Based on that knowledge, my visits to the Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley turned into a wonderful journey.

At Sefa Utaki, I stepped into the heart of the Ryukyu Kingdom's politics, a place that served as a spiritual home for the king and the people. In the Gangala Valley, each group had a specialized guide who joyfully introduced us to the valley's formation, its flora and fauna, and the remains of ancient human dwellings and burials, allowing us to share a moment in time with the ancient Port of Nakagusuku people.

Although my wife, who was supposed to join me, was unwell and I participated alone, I had a great time.

自分で行くことも出来ますがツアーの良さはガイドさんが道中にこれから行くところを詳しく説明してくれるところだと思います。
その知識をもとに行った斎場御嶽とガンガラーの谷は素晴らしい旅になりました。
斎場御嶽では琉球王国の政治の根幹をなす王と国の民の心の拠り所に足を踏み入れ古代王朝の世界に。
ガンガラーの谷ではグループごとに専門のガイドさんが楽しくこの谷の成り立ちや動植物、古代人の住居跡や埋葬の跡を紹介してくれ太古の港川人と時空を共有出来ました。
同行予定の妻が体調不良でひとりで参加しましたが楽しく過ごせました。

Waking up a bit early was not ideal, but I was impressed with the tour guide's sightseeing information. Since they drop you off at the airport at 1 PM, I think this is a good option for those flying in the afternoon. Thank you very much.

朝少し早いのがいまいちだけど、ガイドさんの観光案内も付いていて感動しました。午後1時に空港で降ろしてくれるので、午後便で帰る人には良い選択肢の一つになると思います。ありがとうございました。

I was able to efficiently sightsee for half a day on the last day.
The World Heritage Site "Sefa Utaki" is a must-visit.
The limestone cave at Okinawa World is very beautiful. My child was moved to see a limestone cave for the first time.

最終日の半日を効率よく観光できました。
世界文化遺産「斎場御獄」がMust visit
おきなわワールドの鍾乳洞がとてもきれい。こどもがはじめて鍾乳洞をみれて感動した。

We efficiently explored Sapporo for half a day on the last day. The outer market for lunch was cheap and delicious! The guide was kind and very friendly to the kids.

最終日の半日を効率よく札幌を回りました。
お昼の場外市場、安くてうまかったです！
ガイドさんもやさしくてこどもにやさしい

I participated in "Saijō Gushikawa" and "Gangalala Valley" this time. The bus guide and the local guide provided thorough explanations, and the driver was also very kind, making it a very enjoyable tour. I’m truly sorry for causing trouble by forgetting my souvenirs on the bus on the way back. I really appreciate that you returned them to the restaurant where I got off last. Thank you very much. I would like to use Beltora again for my next trip.

今回「斎場御嶽」と「ガンガラーの谷」に参加しました。バスガイドさん現地のガイドさんの丁寧な説明と運転手さんも親切でとても楽しいツアーでした。帰りバスの中に土産物を忘れて迷惑をかけてしまい、本当に申し訳ありませんでした。最後に降りた先のレストラン迄戻って届けて頂き助かりました。ありがとうございました。次回の旅行の時もベルトラさんで行きたいと思います。

I participated in a bus tour by myself for the first time.
As a result, once I got on the bus, I was taken to the destination without getting lost.
At the destination, I had free time to explore at my own pace, and I just needed to return to the bus by the meeting time.
The bus seats were assigned, but they arranged them by group, so I didn't have to sit next to strangers.
Additionally, the bus guide provided information during the journey, making it very enjoyable and it went by in no time.

初めてひとりでバスツァーに参加してみました
結果
バスに乗ってしまえば現地迄迷うことなく連れていって貰え
現地では自由行動なのでマイペースで見学でき集合時間までにバスに戻れば良いだけ
バスの座席も指定席でしたがグループごとにしていただけていました なので私は知らない人と隣どおしになることもなく
またバスガイドさんが現地までの道中案内をしてくださりとても楽しくあっという間でした

I participated with my elderly mothers. The weather and breeze were pleasant. The meeting place was close to Tokyo Station and easy to find. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate again.

高齢の母達を連れての参加でした。
天気や風も気持ち良く。東京駅から近い集合場所も、解り安く機会があれば、また参加したいです。

It was drizzling, but they provided simple raincoats, which helped. Even though it was a two-hour course, we had one hour of free time in Odaiba. The tour was about enjoying the night view by finding our own spots. When the bus came to pick us up after free time, the seats were still wet, probably because of the light rain. Since it’s a paid tour, I thought there should have been at least some consideration to wipe them down, which might have made me want to use their services again.

In the end, the highlight was just the illumination of Tokyo Tower. Passing by the closed Tsukiji at night and getting explanations was not interesting at all. The lights of Ginza were just glamorous.

Well, it was a tour that matched the price. I was disappointed in myself for having too high expectations.

小雨だったけど簡易レインコートを配ってくださり、凌げた。2時間コースなのにお台場で1時間のフリータイム。
夜景は自分で場所を探して堪能するツアーでした。乗客を下ろし、フリータイムが終わる時間に来たバスは小雨だからか座席は濡れたまま。金とってるツアーなんだからせめて拭いておくくらいの心遣いはあったほうが次も利用しようと思ったかもしれない。
結局目玉は東京タワーのライトアップのみ。夜の閉まっている築地の前を通って説明されても面白くもない。銀座の明かりが華やかだっただけ。
まぁ値段並みのツアーでした。
期待しすぎた自分が残念でした。

I arrived at the meeting place 40 minutes early, but I wasn't sure where to go. It said "in front of the prefectural office arch," but in reality, I had to look for several buses lined up to figure it out. There were many people wandering around. Even five minutes before the meeting time, no one had arrived at the arch, so I finally went towards the buses and understood where to go.

There is a problem with the meeting location. It would be better to either come to the arch or look for your tour bus. The arch is where school trip students gather.

The tour itself was very good. Next time, I would like to try a full-day tour. I will be going to Okinawa again this year.

待合せ場所に40分まで行きましたが。良くわからない。
県庁前のアーチのと書いてありましたが、
実際は縦列しているバスの幾つかを探さないとわからない。
ウロウロしている方々が沢山いた
５分前になってもアーチの所には誰も来ないので
バスの方へ行ってやっとわかった。

集合場所に問題がある。アーチへ来るか、自分のツアーのバスを探して下さい。とどちらかにした方がいい。
アーチは修学旅行生が集合する。

ツアー事態はとても良いです。
次回は１日ツアーを行ってみたいです。
今年又、沖縄行きます。

It was packed with fun, and during my free time, I was able to experience the atmosphere of the Shiroi Koibito Park and the jump area. I participated alone, but I had a great time.

盛り沢山で楽しく、自由時間は白い恋人パーク、ジャンプ場で当時の雰囲気を感じる事ができました
ひとりでの参加でしたが、楽しかったです

It was a weekday in late June, but the place was almost full.

The time spent at each sightseeing spot might feel a bit short, but I think it would be hard to visit this many places efficiently on my own, so I was glad.

Following the guide's advice to do my shopping first at Shiroi Koibito Park, since the register gets crowded, was definitely the right decision.

6月下旬の平日でしたがほぼ満席でした。

各見学場所の見学時間は少なく物足りなく感じるかもしれませんが自分でこれだけ回ろうと思うとこんなに効率よくはできないと思うのでよかったです。

白い恋人パークはレジが混雑するから先にお買い物をしたほうがいいというガイドさんのアドバイスどおりにしたら大正解でした。

The guide's explanations were detailed and enjoyable, making the atmosphere on the bus pleasant and uplifting. I'm really glad I participated. I don't think I could have explored everything on my own. If I have the chance next time, I definitely want to join another tour.

ガイドさんの説明が詳しく楽しくてバスの中も和やかで気分がいいツアーでした。
本当に参加して良かったです。なかなか個人では回りきれないと思います。次回も行けたら是非他のツアーに参加したいと思います。

It was a short morning bus tour, but I really appreciated the guide's thoughtful care and the detailed explanations about Okinawa during the ride. Thank you very much.

短い午前中のバスツアーでしたが、ガイドさんの細やかな気遣いや車中では沖縄に関しての詳しい説明がとてもありがたく思いました。
ありがとうございました。

Since I was traveling alone in Okinawa, I thought about renting a car but decided to join a tour instead. I was impressed by the detailed explanations of the history of Sefa Utaki. I was amazed by the power of Sefa Utaki, enjoyed Okinawa World, and it was a satisfying tour.

一人で沖縄旅行なので、レンタカーもどうかと思いツァーに参加しました。斎場御嶽の歴史をていねいに説明いただき、感激しました。斎場御嶽のパワーに驚き、沖縄ワールドも楽しみ、満足なツァーでしたしました

Everything was better than I expected. Despite being a morning course, it was fulfilling without any wasted time.

思っていたよりすべての所が良かったです。
午前中のコースにもかかわらず、無駄な時間もなく充実していました。

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。

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。

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。

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。

It was just as I imagined.

I didn't have time to see both the Okurayama Jump Stadium observation deck and the Sapporo Olympic Museum, so I visited the Olympic Museum, which turned out to be surprisingly interesting.

The guidance is mainly through earphones, but it seemed difficult for the elderly to operate.

The bus had Wi-Fi and charging outlets, which was convenient.

想像していた通りでした。

大倉山ジャンプ競技場の展望台と札幌オリンピックミュージアムの両方を見る時間はなかったので、オリンピックミュージアムを見ましたが、案外面白かったです。

社内では主にイヤフォンでの案内ですが、お年寄りには操作が難しそうでした。

バスにはwifiと充電できるコンセントがあり、便利でした。

The sacred site of Sefa Utaki on Okinawa Island, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is truly a mystical space in nature that cleanses the soul. I believe it's a must-visit when you come to Okinawa.

Okinawa World is also packed with traditional Okinawan culture, featuring shows like Eisa and the Habu and Mongoose show, as well as a tropical fruit garden and Habu Museum Park that can only be found in the tropics. I was very satisfied with the many attractions. The limestone cave Gyokusendo is an extraordinary space created by nature, and just entering it is incredibly worthwhile. The bus guide was also very wonderful! You can also stop by Naha Airport on the way back, so I recommend it for your last day!

世界遺産の沖縄本島の聖地 斎場御嶽は本当に大自然の中の神秘的な空間で心が洗われました。沖縄に来たら絶対来るべきだと思います。
おきなわワールドも園内にギュっと沖縄伝統文化が凝縮されていて、エイサーやハブとマングースのショーが観れたり、南国でしか見れない熱帯フルーツ園やハブ博物公園なと沢山のコンテンツで大満足でした。鍾乳洞の玉泉洞は大自然が生んだ非日常空間で ここに入るだけでもめちゃめちゃ価値があります。バスガイドさんもとても素敵でした！帰路は那覇空港にも寄ってもらえますので最終日にもオススメです！

I'm glad I could visit the places I wanted to.

Please give me a little more time for lunch. I didn't have time to buy seafood and it was a bit busy!

The bus was clean! The driver drove safely, and the guide was a kind person.

It was accommodating for multiple nationalities, but I think a little more English support on the bus would be necessary.

I think it's a good plan!

行きたい所へ
サクサク回れて良かったです。

ランチタイムはもう少しだけ時間下さい。
海鮮を買う時間が無くて
ちょっと忙しかった！

バスも綺麗！運転手さんも安全運転。ガイドさんも優しい人。

多国籍対応でしたが　車内での英語対応が
もう少し必要かと思います。

良いプランだと思います！

Since it's a half-day itinerary, there are no particular issues. If I had to suggest something, since it ends in the early afternoon, it might be nice to include a lunch spot that can only be reached by bus. Alternatively, it could be added to the course as a stop.

半日行程なので特段の問題なし。
強いて言えば、昼過ぎに終わるので、どうせならどこかバスでしか行けないようなランチを組み込めばいいのかなと。若しくはその場所までコースに入れるとか。

It was fun. I don't have a license, so it was helpful. VERTRA offers many efficient tours. It was disappointing that there were areas we couldn't enter at the Sefa Utaki. The Shisa dance at Okinawa World is enjoyable no matter how many times you see it.

楽しかったです。免許持っていないので助かりました。VERTRAさんは無駄がないツアーが多いです。斎場御獄が入れない箇所がありましたので残念でした。おきなわワールドのシーサーの踊りは何度見ても楽しいです。

I chose the course at the Valley of Gangala. The explanations were thorough, and it was enjoyable. I think participating on the last day of my stay was just right for the time until my late flight.

ガンガラーの谷のコースにしました。丁寧に説明してくださり楽しかったです。滞在最終日に参加したら遅いフライトまでの時間に丁度良かったと思いました。

I chose the half-day tour instead of the full-day bus tour because a full day can be tiring. During the ride, I enjoyed listening to various stories from the guide, which was a lot of fun. I barely made it to the Eisa show at Okinawa World, which started at 10:30, and I really enjoyed it. Once you enter the cave, you can't leave until you reach the end, and it takes quite a while, so I ended up spending a lot of time there and didn't have much time to leisurely explore other places. The tour ended on time, so I recommend it for those who want to relax freely afterward.

丸１日のバスツアーは疲れるので、半日のこちらを選びました。
乗っている間はガイドさんから色々なお話を聞けて、とても楽しかったです。
おきなわワールドは、10時半からのエイサーショーにギリギリ間に合ってとても楽しめました。
洞窟に入ってしまうと、最後まで行かないと出られなく、わりと長いのでそこで時間をとられてしまい、
あまりゆっくりと他のところを見ている時間がなかったです。
時間通りの解散で、あとは自由にゆっくりしたい人におすすめです。

It was great to have many pickup locations to choose from. The guide was very thorough and provided excellent guidance. This time, the tour included Sefa Utaki, and although it was a revisit, we couldn't go to the most important place, and I wish that had been communicated more clearly. (The destination had changed.) Despite the limited time, we were able to see the wonderful views from Chinen Misaki while walking quickly.

ピックアップ場所が多くて選択できるのが良かった。ガイドさん付きでしっかりガイドして頂けた。今回、斎場御獄も入っているツアーで、再訪ですが一番肝心の場所まで行けず、もっとその事を大きく告知して頂きたかった。(行先変更してました。)時間も限られる中、速足で見学すると知念岬の素晴らしい景色も見られました。

The road to the airport was congested, so it was difficult to adjust the time on unfamiliar roads... So, I thought I would join a bus tour that takes you around the places I wanted to visit and sends you directly to the airport!

I was able to visit efficiently, and I really enjoyed the guide's stories and even songs along the way. I was very glad I participated.

I felt reassured when I received a call on my mobile before the bus arrived for the meeting point. I would like to participate again.

空港までの道は混んでいるので、慣れない道では時間調整が難しい…
それならと、行きたいところを廻るしバスツアー参加して空港へそのまま送ってもらおう！と思い参加。

効率よく廻れたこと、道中でのガイドさんのお話や歌までも堪能できて、すごく楽しい時間。
参加してよかったと思いました。

集合もバス到着前に携帯に電話頂けたので安心できました。
また参加したいです。
