All Reviews for Bus Tours

I was looking forward to American Village, but my stay was short, and I only got to experience the atmosphere.

The most concerning point was that the tour guide (who was Korean) rushed off to the destination as soon as we got off the bus, making it difficult to ask any questions. I could barely keep up with them, which was quite frustrating.

Since I had participated in a tour with another bus company the day before, I could really feel the difference in service. There was a lack of hospitality.

The travel time on the bus was long, so I would have appreciated a bit more sightseeing information.

アメリカンビレッジを楽しみにしていたので、滞在時間が短くて雰囲気だけ味わった。
一番気になる点は、添乗員の方（韓国人）がバスから降りたら一目散に目的地に早足で向かい（質問など出来ない状態）付いていくのがやっとで、とても困った。
前日ほかのバス会社のツアーに参加したので、サービスの差を感じた。
おもてなしの心がなかった。
移動バス時間も長かったので、少し観光案内が欲しかった。

I was able to visit the attractions without wasting time, and I am very satisfied. The time management was perfect as well. The guide explained everything very clearly, and it was a lot of fun.

無駄なく名所を回れて　とても満足してます　時間配分もバッチリでした
ガイドさんもとてもわかりやすく説明してくれて　とても楽しかったです

Overall, it was a packed schedule, so there wasn't much time, but the guide was wonderful, explaining everything in detail. She was a Korean sister, and I felt like cheering her on as she worked hard to speak Japanese.

全体的にぎゅっとしたプランなので、時間はありませんが、ガイドのお姉さんが丁寧に色々説明していて素敵でした。韓国オンニでしたが、一生懸命日本語を話してて応援したくなりました。

I was able to fully enjoy the essence of Okinawa in just one day! Everywhere was so appealing that I ran out of time, so next time I want to take plenty of time to explore the key spots. This time, the driver and the tour guide were both very nice people, which made the experience even more enjoyable! Thank you!

1日で沖縄らしさを満喫出来ました！どこも魅力的で滞在時間が足りなくなってしまったので、次は要所要所にたっぷり時間をかけて見て回りたいと思います。
今回は運転手さん並びに添乗員さんがとても良い人柄でより楽しめました！ありがとうございました！

The guide shared various stories, allowing me to learn about history. I was able to discover many great places.

ガイドさんが色々お話してくださったので、歴史を学ぶことができた。たくさんの良い場所を知ることができた。

I am satisfied with the tour I chose. Especially, having the explanations from the expert guide in the Valley of Gangala made the visit worthwhile. However, the bus we took had people going to the beach on the same route. While it's fine since Okinawa World and the Valley of Gangala have the same destination, the fact that we disband at a somewhat awkward time, like 1:30, makes me wish they would separate the groups. Was that mentioned in the description?

自分が選んだツアー内容には満足してます。
特にガンガラーの谷の専門ガイドさんの説明受けながらは観光に来た甲斐がありました。
ただこちらのバス、海に行く人も一緒に3コース同行です。おきなわワールド、ガンガラーの谷は目的地が同じなのでいいのですが…１時半とか微妙な時間で解散するので、寄り道する分早く戻れると思うと別にして欲しいなという。説明文にはそんなこと書いてありましたっけ？

I participated in a half-day tour of Sefa Utaki and the Gangala Valley. Since I don't have a car, the tour was very helpful for me, and the bus guide taught us a lot about Okinawa, which was great. The guide also explained about the Gangala Valley, and I enjoyed it, so I highly recommend it.

斎場御嶽とガンガラーの谷の半日ツアーに参加しました。
車がない私には半日では行けないので、ツアーはとても助かりましたし、
バスガイドさんも沖縄のことをいろいろ教えて下さり、とてもよかったです。
ガンガラーの谷もガイドさんが説明して下さり、楽しめたのでオススメです。

The weather was favorable, and the Sefa Utaki was very mystical. Participating in the Ganga-lar Valley while listening to the guide's stories made for a very enjoyable hike. On the last day of my trip to Okinawa, the half-day tour was very meaningful, and I was extremely satisfied.

天気にも恵まれ、斎場御嶽はとても神秘的で、ガイドさんの話を聞きながら参加するガンガラーの谷は、とても楽しくハイキングできました。
沖縄旅行の最終日で、半日ツアーはとても有意義に過ごすことができ、大満足です。

I spent a day exploring the northern part of Okinawa, and although we couldn't spend much time at each location, it was enjoyable. However, it was unfortunate that we couldn't have lunch due to the limited time at the tourist spots. I had heard comments suggesting that it would have been better to buy rice balls and drinks to eat on the bus, and I wish I had done that.

沖縄北部を1日かけて、観光できるため、個々の場所が時間かけれないけど楽しかったです。
ですが、観光地で限られた時間のため、昼食は取れないのが、残念でした。おむすびと飲み物を買ってからバスで食べる方が良いとコメントがあったため、そのようにすれば良かったな。

I was actually worried that I might not have enough time or that I wouldn't be able to enjoy it because I was tired, but the bus guide was kind and made the departure times easy to understand and very helpful!

実際時間足りないかも、とか疲れてて楽しめないかなって思ってたけど
バスガイドさん優しくて出発時刻とかも分かりやすくて親切だった！

It was very good. I understood the meeting place, but the vehicle on the day was not the Celulian Blue-wrapped bus that was mentioned as a landmark. The guide was calling out the names of the participants, but their voices were mostly drowned out by the noise of passing cars, which caused a delay in the participants' responses and made the gathering take longer than expected. The tour went smoothly, but there were some people who were late each time for the meeting. The guide was very kind and always had a lovely smile. The driver also drove safely, and I truly appreciate their hard work. It was a great trip. If I have the opportunity again, I will definitely use your services. Thank you very much.

とても良かったです。集合場所は分かりましたが当日の車両が、目印と書いてあった、セルリアンブルーさんのラッピングバスではなかったのと、ガイドさんはずっと参加者の名前を呼んでくれていましたが、通行している車の音にかき消されて、ほとんど聞こえなかったため参加者の反応が遅れ、集合に時間が掛かったように思います。ツアーは順調でしたが、集合時間に毎回遅れる方がいました。ガイドさんはとても親切で、いつも笑顔で素敵でした。ドライバーさんも安全運転で本当にお疲れ様でした。良い旅行になりました。また機会がありましたら利用させて頂きます。本当にありがとうございました。

I wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, but since renting a car would be a waste for just one person, I joined a bus tour. The whale sharks at the Churaumi Aquarium were amazing. At the café in front of the aquarium, you can enjoy a meal while watching the fish. I also opted for the steak full course, which was delicious.

美ら海水族館に行きたかったのですが、レンタカーは一人だともったいないのでバスツアーに参加しました。美ら海水族館のジンベイサメは素晴らしかったです。水槽の前のカフェでは食事しながら魚がみれます。またステーキフルコース付きにしたので美味しかったです。

I'm glad I was taken to the Churaumi Aquarium and Manzamo, which are difficult to reach without a car. The Pineapple Park was also larger than I expected, and I had a great time there.

車がないと行きづらい美ら海水族館や万座毛に連れて行ってもらえて良かったです。
パイナップルパークも思っていたより広くて楽しめました。

The Sefa Utaki was a great place to learn about history. I participated in a bus tour to Okinawa World over 30 years ago, but I didn't have enough time to see the snake and mongoose show or the Eisa dance show, so this time I decided to join the bus tour again to see the shows. The bus arrived before the shows started, and since we had enough time, I was able to see both the snake and mongoose show and the Eisa dance show. The Eisa dance show really captured the atmosphere of Okinawa. Due to animal welfare laws, the snake and mongoose show could no longer have them fight, so they held a swimming competition instead (laughs). My goal this time was to see both the snake and mongoose show and the Eisa dance show, so I was very satisfied with the bus tour. Lastly, I visited the snake museum, which I also didn't have time to see last time. It was great. Okinawa World was a fulfilling experience.

斎場御嶽は歴史の勉強になりました。
おきなわワ−ルドは30年以上前にバスツアーで参加し時間が無くハブとマングースのショ―とエイサーのショ―を見れなかったので今回ショ―を見たいと思いバスツアーに参加することにしました。ショ―が始まる前にバスが到着し所要持ち時間もあったのでハブとマングースのショ―とエイサーのショ―を両方を見る事が出来ました。エイサーのショ―は沖縄の雰囲気が充分に有りました。ハブとマングースのショ―は動物愛護法により戦いが出来無くなり水泳競争をやっておりました(笑)　今回の目標はハブとマングースのショ―とエイサーのショ―を両方を見る事でしたので充分に納得したバスツアーでした。あと最後にハブ博物館を見ました。これも前回見る時間が無かったので見る事が出来ました。良かったです。充実したおきなわワ−ルドでした。

I visited the Churaumi Aquarium again because I went there 30 years ago. It was crowded with families. The Ocean Expo Park, where the Churaumi Aquarium is located, is spacious. Since the time allocated for the aquarium is about 140 minutes, it's a good idea to consider your time management while walking around. Manzamo was well-maintained along the route. Nago Pineapple Park was filled with many interesting sculptures, which was enjoyable. Since lunch is not included in the course, I think it's a good idea to bring something like rice balls. The dining places and food trucks at tourist spots were very crowded, and there wasn't enough time to eat. I bought rice balls at a convenience store and brought them with me. I participated in a plan that included a barbecue dinner. They cooked it right in front of me, and it was delicious.

30年前に美ら海水族館に行ったので、また行こうと思い美ら海水族館行きました。家族連れでいっぱいでした。美ら海水族館のある海洋博公園は広いです。美ら海水族館持ち時間140分位ですので時間配分を考慮して歩くと良いです。万座毛は順路が整備されてました。名護パイナップルパークはオブジェがいっぱいで楽しめました。昼食がコ−スに含まれて無いので、おにぎり等を持参すると良いと思います。観光地の食堂、キッチンカ−等は人がいっぱいで食べる時間有りません。私はおにぎりをコンビニで買い持って行きました。夕食焼肉ディナ-付プランで参加しました。目の前で焼いてくれて、美味しくいただきました。

Just the two of us, my son and I. Since I was anxious about driving a rental car myself, I looked for a bus tour and chose this course because I wanted to visit various places. There were many tourists from overseas participating as well, but no one spoke loudly on the bus, allowing us to relax in a quiet atmosphere. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

息子と2人。レンタカーで自分で運転するのも不安だったためバスツアーを探し、色々回りたかった私はこのコースを選びました。
海外からの観光客の方もたくさん参加していらっしゃいましたが、バスの中で大きな声で話すこともなく、静かな車内でゆったり出来ました。
いい思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

About 80% of the participants were foreigners. As a result, it was noisy, the scent of perfume was strong, and there were requests to sit in the front seats. The young guide seemed to be used to it, but it looked challenging for them. There was also a guide who was not Japanese, speaking in both English and Japanese, but they spoke so quickly that I couldn't really understand what they were saying. However, their effort was definitely conveyed.

However, if you are going with parents or elderly people, I think a tour with only Japanese participants on a Japanese-speaking bus would be better. The content of the tour was well-organized and efficient.

8割外国人でした。なので、うるさい、香水の匂いがきつい、前の席に座りたい、だの、若いガイドさんも慣れてはいたのでしょうが大変そうでした。また日本人ではないガイドさんが英語と日本語ではなしてくれるのですが、早口で何を言っているのかよく分からなかったです。でも一生懸命さだけは伝わりました。
しかし、親や高齢者と行くなら、日本人のみのバスで日本語のツアーのほうがいいかなと思いました。ツアーの内容は効率よく回れてよかったです。

During the journey, you shared various histories of Okinawa, which was very educational. If I have the opportunity to visit Okinawa again, I would like to go with Veltra.

道中、沖縄の様々な歴史を話してくださり、とても勉強になりました。
沖縄に行く機会があったら、またveltraさんにしたいです。

The guide advised that if you want to have a meal at the Churaumi Aquarium within a limited time, it's more efficient to buy food from the shop rather than entering a restaurant. We enjoyed our meal on a bench before the aquarium tour and the dolphin show, and even with two and a half hours of sightseeing, we had plenty of fun. The view of Kouri Island was beautiful. It was a relief for me, as someone who doesn't drive, since it's a bit difficult to get to.

ガイドさんが限られた時間内で美ら海水族館で食事をとるならレストランに入るより売店で食べ物を購入した方が効率的とアドバイスして下さいました。
美ら海水族館の館内見学、イルカショー見学の前にベンチで食事、その後イルカショー見学で2時間半の見学時間でも充分楽しめました。古宇利島の景色は素敵でした。行きにくい場所なので車を運転しない私に有り難かったです

I was glad to be able to efficiently visit so many places. The guide provided information in Japanese, Korean, and English. There wasn't much explanation beyond confirming the meeting place, meeting time, and schedule. Since the admission fee for the Churaumi Aquarium is included, I think it's a good deal. Personally, I felt that two and a half hours at the Churaumi Aquarium was enough, and the rest of the time felt a bit rushed. Especially at American Village, it’s so large that I thought I wouldn’t make it back in time if I stopped for a meal, so I gave up on that.

これだけの場所に効率良く回れて良かった。ガイドさんの案内は日本語、韓国語、英語でした。集合場所、集合時間、スケジュールの確認くらいで特に説明はありません。美ら海水族館の入場料込みなのでお得な内容かと思います。個人的には美ら海水族館は２時間半で十分、あとはちょっと駆け足だった感があります。特にアメリカンビレッジは広いので食事していたら集合時間に間に合わないと思いあきらめました。

Saijō Gūtak is a very mystical place where I felt a sacred atmosphere that can't be conveyed just through a brochure. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to take another hour to relax there. The guide's live singing was also great.

斎場御嶽はとても神秘的な場所でパンフレットだけでは伝わらない神聖な空気を感じました。欲を言うともう１時間ゆっくりしたかったなぁ。ガイドさんの生歌も良かったです。

I was able to efficiently tour the attractions in northern Okinawa in one day. At American Village, I was able to see the beach at sunset!

沖縄北部の名所を1日で効率よく観光できました。アメリカンビレッジでは夕暮れのビーチを観ることができました！

Although it was early in the morning, I was able to fully experience the nature of Okinawa in a relatively short time until noon. The guide's stories on the bus were also very interesting!

朝は早めですが、お昼までの比較的短い時間の中で、沖縄の自然を存分に感じることができました。バスの車内でのガイドさんのお話も非常に面白かったです！

I participated in this trip with my parents. Since I'm not good at driving in unfamiliar places, I joined the tour, and it turned out to be enjoyable and stress-free. My parents, who walk slowly while keeping an eye on the time, seemed to struggle a bit, but I think we were able to visit various places within the allotted time and had a meaningful experience. The guide provided thorough explanations throughout, which allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of Okinawa.

両親との旅行で参加しました。見知らぬ土地での車の運転が苦手なので参加しましたがやはり楽でストレスなく楽しめました。時間を気にしながらなので歩行がゆっくりの親はしんどそうでしたが決められた時間内でいろんなところを見て回り、有意義な時間を過ごせたと思います。ガイドさんが終始丁寧な説明があったので沖縄についてよく深く知ることが出来ました。

I was searching for a tour to the Churaumi Aquarium and found this one. We had 150 minutes at the aquarium, and since we opted for a light meal, we were able to enjoy it without rushing.

I thought the time allocation for the other stops was appropriate, but I felt that the 50 minutes at the American Village at the end was too short.

I participated in the tour of Sefa Utaki and the Valley of Gangala. I was able to feel the faith and history that the people of Okinawa have cherished, and I received a lot of energy from it. The guides were very good at sharing stories. Thanks to the bus guide, the driver, the guide at the Valley of Gangala, and my fellow travelers, the sightseeing went smoothly. Thank you very much.

斎場御嶽、ガンガラーの谷ツアーに参加しました。
沖縄の皆さんが大切にしてきた信仰や歴史を感じることができ、パワーをいただきました。
ガイドさん達は、とてもお話し上手です。
バスガイドさん、運転手さん、ガンガラーの谷のガイドさん、同行者の皆さんのおかげでスムーズに観光ができました。
ありがとうございました。

In some places, the parking lot is far away, and we can't be late for the meeting time, so the time written is even shorter. However, since we couldn't drive around ourselves, it was a very helpful tour.

場所によっては駐車場が遠く、集合時間に遅れてもいけないしで、書いてある時間より更に短くなります。ただ自分達では運転してまわれなかったので、ありがたいツアーでした。

I joined a tour for my friend who was visiting Okinawa for the first time. We were able to visit all the places we wanted in the northern part, and I was very satisfied! I definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting Okinawa for the first time. However, while the guide was great, the driver had a very unpleasant attitude and responded coldly to the guide, which made me feel sorry for them. It's a shame because the tour was enjoyable. I didn't think the driver was professional.

初めて沖縄に行く友人のために
ツアーに参加しました。
北部で行きたい所は全部行けて
とても大満足でした！
初めて沖縄に行く人には絶対に
おすすめなツアーです。
しかしガイドさんは良かったのですが
運転手さんがとても感じが悪く
ガイドさんに対する受け答えが冷たくて
ガイドさんがとても気の毒でした。
ツアーは楽しかっただけにとても残念です。
プロじゃないと思いました。

I had a wonderful trip thanks to the fun stories from the bus guide and being taken to many places that are a must-see in Okinawa! Thank you very much.

バスガイドさんの楽しいお話と沖縄といえばここ！という場所にたくさん連れて行っていただき大満足な旅行でした！
ありがとうございました。

Since the person I went with was visiting Okinawa for the first time, we booked this course. We were able to visit various tourist spots in Okinawa, and at the Churaumi Aquarium, we coincidentally got to see the feeding of the whale shark, which was just starting, and we were able to see it swimming vertically. There was no traffic, and we arrived at the steak restaurant an hour early. Although the restaurant was full, they arranged for us to be taken by taxi to their main store. I had no expectations at all, but not only was the performance of cooking in front of us impressive, but the meat was tender and everything was delicious. We had other plans while in Okinawa, but it was a day filled with sightseeing. I would love to participate again.

一緒に行った方が沖縄が初めての方だったので、こちらのコースを予約しました。沖縄の観光地を回って時間も適度にとって頂き、なかでも美ら海水族館で偶然ですが、じんべいざめの餌やりが丁度に始まり縦になった姿を見れました。渋滞もなく夕飯のステーキ屋さんに一時間早く着いてしまいお店は満員でしたが、そちらのお店の本店にタクシーで送って頂きました。全く期待してなかったので、目の前で焼いて下さるパフォーマンスもさることながら、お肉が柔らかくすべて美味しく頂きました。私達は他に用事があって沖縄に来たのですが、観光を満喫した１日でした。また参加したいです。
