Okinawa Main Island
Since I didn't rent a car this time, I joined this tour to visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Just the round-trip fare on the local bus and the entrance fee make this tour worth it. We were able to sightsee at Kouri Island and Manzamo, which felt like a great deal. On the way back, we got off at American Village, which was the perfect timing for watching the sunset at the hotel.
今回レンタカーではなかったので、美海水族館に行くのに、このツアーに参加しました。路線バスでの往復料金や入園料だけでもこのツアーで元が取れます。古宇利島や万座毛まで観光でき、お得感満載でした。帰りはアメリカンビレッジで下車しホテルで夕陽鑑賞というベストタイミングでした。
I don't need souvenir shops, but is collaboration necessary to keep costs down? There are too many pick-up locations, and it takes an extra hour just for that, which is a downside. The guidance for other locations was good.
土産屋はいらんけど、安くするためには、提携も必要なのでしょうか。
ピック場所も多すぎで、それだけで1時間も余計にかかるのは、バツです。
その他の場所の案内は、よかったです。
At first, I thought it was just my imagination, but since I've been using Veltra for my overseas travels, I was surprised to find that we were the only Japanese people on this domestic tour. Because of that, I felt like I was abroad and really enjoyed the bus tour.
The content was perfect! It was much more efficient than going around on my own, and I had no complaints about the highlights we visited! When traveling individually, I often don't understand much about the area, but with the tour, I was able to learn, and it felt like we arrived at our destination in no time while having fun during the journey. Even though it was a tour, they allowed us to spend our time freely, which I was very satisfied with.
最初気のせいかと思ったのですが、海外旅行でもベルトラさんにお世話になってるので国内も参加したらまさかの日本人が私たちだけだった。なので、海外にいるような感じでバスツアーを楽しめました。
内容は、完璧です!個人で回るより効率よくしっかりと見どころを回ってくれるので不満はありません!個人だとその土地のことよくわかりませんが、ツアーだと知ることができ移動中も楽しくあっという間に目的地に着いた感じです。ツアーといっても自由に過ごさせてくれるので、そこもとても満足です。
It might be a bit too packed. Ideally, it would be great to finish by around 6 PM... However, the content was fulfilling.
やや盛り沢山すぎるかも。
18時ごろまでに終了するのが理想的なのですが・・・
充実した内容ではありました。
I was able to return safely despite the rainy weather. Thanks to the guide and the bus driver.
The Yanbaru Forest and the Oishi Rock Mountain were impressive. Climbing the mountain wasn't particularly difficult, but you need to be careful because the footing is poor. I thought it would have been perfect if it hadn't rained.
In the end, we had to change buses due to some trouble, but that also became a good memory.
Next time, I want to explore a different course.
天候は雨降る中無事帰ってくることができました。
ガイドのお姉さん、バスの運転手さんのおかげです。
やんばるの森、大石林山など見応えありました。山登りは、特に辛いこともないですが、足下悪いので気をつける必要はあります。雨が降ってなければ最高と思いました。
最後は、バスのトラブルで乗り換えが必要になりましたが、それもいい思い出となりました。
今度は違うコースで見て回りたい。
We participated as a three-generation family. The content was just right, but it was a hassle that we had to go to the hotel next door to the one we were staying at.
3世代家族で参加しました。ちょうど良い内容でしたが、宿泊していたホテルの隣のホテルまで行かないといけなかったのが面倒でした。
I thought it would be tiring to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots in Okinawa in one day by renting a car, so I signed up for a day tour. The bus guide provided clear and thorough explanations about the municipalities we passed through, which were very interesting, so I wasn't bored at all during the travel time. I was also grateful for the ample time spent at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. It was a fun and fulfilling day!
レンタカーを借りて1日で効率よく沖縄の観光名所を巡るのが疲れると思って、日帰りツアーに申し込みました。
バスガイドさんが途中通る市町村の話などもわかりやすく、丁寧にたくさん説明してくださいました。とても興味深い内容だったので、移動時間も全然退屈ではありませんでした。
沖縄美ら海水族館の滞在時間も十分だったので、ありがたかったです。楽しくて充実な1日でした!
I thought it wouldn't be great from the start, but it exceeded my expectations. The best experience until now was with the talented guide from Miyazaki Kotsu, who was a classic model of excellence. Even so, I thought it was impressive that they still maintain such a high standard today. This time, I must say, it's truly Okinawa; I doubt anything could surpass this. I take my hat off to Okinawa. I look forward to what lies ahead, overcoming history and current challenges. This was my first time in Okinawa, and I wish I had come sooner.
スタートからやるなと思っていたが、予想を超えた。今までの最高点は宮崎交通の歌の上手なガイドさん、昔ながらの模範的な、それでも今の評価でまだこんないい感じをと思っていたが、今回のはさすが沖縄か、まあこれ以上は無理でしょう。沖縄に脱帽です。歴史と現状を乗り越えての先に期待します。初めての沖縄、もっと早く来たかった。
Originally, I had planned to go to Kouri Island, but it was raining on the day, so I decided not to go. I consulted with the driver, and we set a new destination. Without showing any displeasure, he kindly helped me decide where to go, and we ended up visiting a memorable place. During the drive, he shared various stories with me. He mentioned wanting to take me to recommended spots that aren't in guidebooks. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we couldn't go there, but I truly had a wonderful time. I feel that choosing a charter was definitely the right decision.
If I have another opportunity, I would appreciate your help again! Thank you very much!!!
もともと古宇利島に行く予定だったのですが、当日雨が降っていて、行くのを断念。運転手さんと相談し新たな目的地を設定しました。嫌な顔ひとつせず、親身にどこに行くかの相談にのって下さり、思い出に残る場所に行けました。道中でも様々なお話をして下さりました。ガイドブックには載らないようなオススメの場所も連れていきたいといってくれました。じかんの都合で最終的にそこには行けませんでしたが、ほんとに楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。チャーターを選んで大正解だったなとしみじみ感じています。
また機会がありましたらよろしくお願い致します!
ありがとうございました!!!
There was no guide, but it was great that the tour conductor provided various sightseeing information. The submarine ride was changed to a different dinosaur park due to strong winds. I went on December 25, and it's good to have a jacket. Half of the participants were foreigners (from Asia). I would like to join this plan again in 10 years.
ガイドさんはいませんが、添乗員の方がいろいろ観光案内してくれてよかったです。
サブマリンは強風のため別の恐竜パークになりました。
12/25に行きましたが、上着があるといいです。
参加者の半数は外人(アジア)です。
10年後にまたこのプランで参加したいです。
Thanks to the tour guide, I was able to participate alone and had a great time. At the Oishi Forest Park, which I had always wanted to visit, I was given recommendations for the best course and enjoyed the stunning view from the observation deck. With the guide's assistance, I was also able to see a large banyan tree.
For lunch, I was very satisfied with the delicious sashimi and fried dishes at a popular restaurant. Each sightseeing spot had ample time allocated, allowing me to explore various attractions.
添乗員さんのお陰でひとり参加でしたがとても楽しめました。ずっと行ってみたかった大石林山ではおすすめコースを教えてもらい、展望台から最高の景色眺めました。また添乗員さんの案内で大きなガジュマルを見に行くことができました。
お昼は人気のお店でおいしいお刺身やフライをいただけて大満足でした。
ひとつひとつの観光地でしっかり時間が確保されていて色々見学できました。
I was glad to efficiently visit the sightseeing spots in Okinawa. With a rental car, it's hard for the driver to take breaks, but traveling by bus allowed me to rest during the one-hour trips, which was really convenient! On the day I participated, the weather was also favorable, and the sea was beautiful, so I felt lucky.
効率よく沖縄の観光名所を巡れて良かったです。
レンタカーだと運転手が休憩をとりにくいですが、バス移動のため1時間程度の移動の時は眠れたりするので楽チンでした!
参加させていただいた日は天候にも恵まれて、とても海も綺麗でラッキーでした。
The guide's voice was beautiful.
The weather was nice, and the tour content was fulfilling.
I would like to use this service again if I have the opportunity.
Thank you very much.
ガイドさんの声が綺麗
天候がよく、ツアー内容も充実
また、機会が有れば利用したい
ありがとうございました
It was my first time participating in a VELTRA tour, and I received detailed emails that made me feel at ease until the day of the tour. The transportation during the tour went almost as scheduled, and we were blessed with good weather, making it a wonderful memory.
初めてのVELTRAツアー参加でしたが、丁寧にメイルが届き、参加当日まで安心出来ました。
ツアーの移動もほぼ予定通りで天気にも恵まれて、良い思い出になりました。
サービスの人たちは良いです。私たちのために英語を翻訳してくれて、とても感動しました。
service person are good, translate English for us, very touched.
This time, I traveled without a rental car and participated in a tour for the first time.
Although it was from morning until evening, there was not a single wasted movement; it was incredibly efficient!
This tour was perfect for someone like me who is impatient.
However, it might be a bit challenging for those who prefer to take their time or need to walk slowly...
Since the schedule was tight, even for someone like me who doesn't usually take their time, I didn't have any extra time.
It wasn't my first time visiting these places, and I wasn't looking to relax, so it felt great to see them again after a while! The time management was excellent!
Moreover, on the way back, we took the highway and had a light sandwich (which was simple but delicious), and with the entrance fees and everything included, along with a guide, this price... is too cheap!!
I thought that from now on, tours might be the way to go for sightseeing in Okinawa!
今回レンタカーなしでの旅行にしたので初めてツアーに参加しました。
朝から夕方までの時間ですが何ひとつ無駄な動きはなく、ものすごく効率的でした!
せっかちの私にはピッタリのツアーです。
もしかすると、ゆっくりめに見たい方、ゆっくり歩かないといけない方にはちょっと大変かもしれません…
時間がタイトなので、せっかちでゆっくり見たつもりは全くない私でも時間が余ることはなかったです。
私にとっては初めて行く場所な訳でもなく、のんびりしたい訳ではなかったので久々にまた見れた〜!って感じで時間配分とっても良かったです!
しかも帰りは高速乗って帰って軽食のサンドイッチ(シンプルで美味しかったです)もあり、入館料もろもろ入ってガイドさんもついてこの値段…安すぎます!!
これから沖縄観光はツアーでいいかも!って思いました!!
The bus guide was very cheerful, and it was an enjoyable tour. I had expected a tour where everyone would sing together, but it was nothing like that. The bus guide efficiently explained the points to note before arrival and gave advice on how to explore the sightseeing spots, as well as recommendations for souvenirs and other attractions, making it a relaxed tour where we mostly listened.
For those who want to take their time, the duration might feel a bit short, but if you follow the advice given, you can have a fulfilling experience. It's perfect for those who don't want to drive.
There were many foreign visitors, and although I didn't speak directly with them, the guide's English was impressive. We enjoyed beautiful views of the sea from the boat, leisurely ate barbecue, rode kickboards along the Fukugi tree-lined path (which was an option on the bus for 1,000 yen per person), and explored the aquarium early before relaxing at a café. We ended the day with a light look at the illuminations in American Village.
At first, I was scared of the instability of the kickboard, and there were moments when I felt I might inconvenience others due to the number of people and cars around. However, the staff at the Fukugi tree-lined path provided individual guidance and taught us routes suitable for beginners.
Since I went during the New Year holidays and didn't have a rental car, I think the tour was the best option due to the holiday schedule. It's not for those who want to fully enjoy the aquarium, but it's highly recommended for those who want to casually visit sightseeing spots. Thank you to the bus guide and the driver!
とても明るいバスガイドさんで楽しいツアーだった。みんなで歌うようなツアーを予想して構えていたが全くそうではなく、バスガイドさんがてきぱき到着前に注意点を説明して観光地の周り方のアドバイスをしたりお土産や他の観光地についておすすめしてくれたりでほぼ聴くだけのリラックスしたツアーだった。
時間はゆっくり見たい人なら少し足りないくらいで、アドバイス通りに動けば充実した時間を過ごせた。運転したくない人には最適。
外国の方が多く、私は直接話すことはなかったがガイドさんの英語がかっこよかった。
船できれいな海を見て、焼肉をゆっくり食べて、フクギ並木でキックボードに乗り(バス内で選択・1人料金1000円)、水族館では早めに周ってカフェでゆっくり、アメリカンビレッジで軽くイルミネーションを見て終わり。
キックボードは最初不安定さが怖く、人と車も多くて迷惑をかけてしまう場面があったが、フクギ並木の店員さんが個別指導と慣れない人向けルートを教えてくれた。
年末年始に行ったのでレンタカーがなく、バスも祝日ダイヤのため、ツアーは最適解だったと思う。
水族館を満喫したい人向けではないが、さらっと観光地を巡りたい人にはとてもいいのでおすすめです。
バスガイドさん運転手さんありがとうございました。
Great cost performance.
The guide did a great job.
I participated for a friend visiting Okinawa for the first time.
It was a fun and productive tour for the day.
I highly recommend it!
コスパ最高
ガイドさんグッジョブ
沖縄初めての友人の為参加しました
一日楽しく有効なツアーでした。
ぜひぜひお勧めします。
I was unable to take this bus from New Year's Day. Despite having made a reservation through this system and receiving a confirmation voucher from the bus company, the bus did not arrive even though I was waiting at the designated boarding location before the specified departure time. When I called the company, I couldn't get through, and after a while, I received a call saying they would check on it. In the end, I had to take a taxi along the same route as the bus (of course, at the bus company's expense). If you plan to join a tour with this company, please be cautious.
元旦からこのバスに乗れませんでした。
このシステムで予約して、バス会社から確認のバウチャーが来ていたにも関わらず、指定の出発時間の前から、指定の乗車場所で待っていたにも関わらず、バスは来ませんでした。
会社に電話をしても繋がらず、しばらくしてから確認をしますとの電話が来ました。
結局はバスのコースと同じところをタクシーで回る事になりました。(もちろんバス会社の負担で)
この会社のツアーに参加予定の方は注意して下さい。
I could see a nice view of the precipitous cliff at Manzamou.
I enjoyed Churaumi Aquarium. I thought it was not enough time to see all of it.
Lastly, I joined a Sanshin Live at the restaurant. It was quite nice.
The tour conductor was working hard. She even played the Sanshin.
I had a good time on this bus tour.

Indeed, winter in Okinawa tends to have cloudy and rainy weather. Currently, rental car prices in Okinawa are soaring, so a bus tour might be a good option for a day. The advantage of a bus tour is that the guide shares insights about Okinawa's culture and history, which is very educational.
やはり冬の沖縄は、曇り雨の天気が続きます。今沖縄ではレンタカー料金が高騰しているので1日程度ならバスツアーでもいいと思います。バスツアーの利点はガイドさんが沖縄の文化や歴史などを語ってくださるので勉強になります。
I took a bus from the hotel where I was staying and got off in front of the hotel on the way back. It was very convenient. The tour included admission tickets to the Churaumi Aquarium and a light snack sandwich, making it a great deal. At Pineapple Park, perhaps because I was relaxing too much, the shopping time was reduced, so I recommend that those who enjoy shopping hurry a bit with their sightseeing in the park.
宿泊しているホテルからバスに乗り、復路もホテル前で降車。
とても楽でした。
美ら海水族館の入場券もつき、軽食のサンドイッチもついてお得感があるツアーでした。
パイナップルパークではのんびりしたせいか?ショッピングタイムが少なくなってしまいましたので買い物好きな方は園内の見学を少しお急ぎになる事をおすすめします。
I didn't rent a car, so I was able to go to the places I wanted by joining a bus tour. It was great to hear various stories about Okinawa from the guide.
レンタカーを借りていないのでバスツアーに参加して行きたい場所に行けました。
ガイドさんの沖縄の色々な話を聞けて良かったです。
Dear Kake Mama,

The guide who explained everything in fluent English and Japanese left a very good impression. I think the cost performance is excellent. It was cold this time, so I would like to visit during a warmer season next time.
流暢な英語と日本語で説明してくださるガイドさんがとても好印象でした。コスパもすごくいいと思います。今回は寒かったので、次回は暖かい時期に訪問したいです。
Both the guide and the driver were pleasant, and I thoroughly enjoyed my first trip to Okinawa. The guide's singing and explanations were excellent (which may be a given), and I learned a lot about the history of the landmarks and useful information. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy and rainy, so it was disappointing not to see the beautiful ocean. There were also a few solo travelers, and being able to chat with them was one of the highlights of the trip. I often use bus tours, and I think 5,900 yen for a tour that includes light snacks is quite reasonable.
ガイドさんも運転手さんも感じが良く、初めての沖縄旅行でしたが満喫できました。
ガイドさんの歌や説明が上手(あたりまえのことかもしれませんが)で名所の歴史やお得情報などよくわかりました。
あいにくお天気が☁や雨だったので綺麗な海が見られなくて残念でした。
一人旅の方も何人かいらしてて、お話ができたのが旅の醍醐味のひとつでしょうか。
よくバスツアーを利用するのですが軽食つきで5900円はお手頃だと思います。に
I was glad to see the wonderful scenery, but when I stood up because I really needed to use the restroom before the meal, the guide scolded me without asking for a reason, saying, "I told you to stay seated!" Even when I tried to explain, I was told to sit down again a couple of times, and since it was early in the trip, I felt uncomfortable throughout the course.
The meal was very satisfying as I got to enjoy a lot of delicious fish, and after the meal, I enjoyed looking at the beautiful sea and swinging on a handmade swing.
There were many older participants, and it seemed like there were quite a few couples, but there were also a good number of solo participants.
At the national park, the local guide provided detailed explanations, which was very nice! I enjoyed listening to the descriptions of the plants and animals. However, it was puzzling that after finishing the national park visit, we were shown an introduction video about the park. I thought the order was strange...
I participated in December, and it gets a bit chilly in the morning and evening, so I think having a light jacket would be good. It was a bit hot during the hike.
Since they take you around to various places, I think it's great for those who can't drive themselves. I recommend it if you don't mind spending a long time on the bus.
素晴らしい景色が見れて良かったとは思いますが、
食事前どうしてもお手洗いに行きたくて立ち上がると理由も確認せず頭ごなしに「座っていてと言いましたよね!」とガイドさんに怒られました。
理由を述べようとしても2.3度被せて座ってくださいと怒られ、旅の序盤だったのでコースを回っている間中ずっと不愉快でした。
食事は美味しいお魚がたくさん食べられて大満足でした、食事後綺麗な海を眺めたり手作り感のあるブランコを漕いだりしました。
参加者の方々は年配の方が多く、ご夫婦が多かった印象ですがお一人の参加者も少なくなかったです。
国立公園では現地の方が詳しく説明をしてくださりとても良かったです!
植物や生き物たちの説明は聞いていて楽しかったです。
国立公園を見終わった後に国立公園の紹介動画を見せられたのは謎でした。
順番がおかしいと思います…。
12月に参加しましたが、朝と夕方少し冷えるので軽い上着があるといいかなと思います。
ハイキング中は少し暑かったです。
色んな所に連れ回してくれるので自分で運転ができないという方はいいと思います。
長時間バスに乗るのが苦痛でなければおすすめします。
The weather wasn't great, so it felt a bit hectic, but I think the tour itself was good value for money. There were two disappointing points. One was the need to remind some tour guests to speak a little more quietly. The other was that although there were three hours allocated for visiting the Churaumi Aquarium and having lunch, considering the time spent waiting to purchase tickets and the round trip to the parking lot, we effectively had just over two hours. Even though we wanted to eat, all the restaurants were crowded, with waits of 40 minutes to an hour, so we prioritized sightseeing and ended up not being able to eat. I would have appreciated more information in advance about the locations and expected crowds.
天候が良くなかった為に少々ばたばたした感じでしたが、ツアーそのものの内容はコスパが良いと思います。
残念だったのは2点。ひとつは少し大きめの声で会話するツアー客に対して注意する必要が有る事。もうひとつは美ら海水族館での見学および昼食の時間は3時間あるもののチケット購入待ちや駐車場までの往復を考えると実質は2時間強だった事。食事しようにもどの店も混んでおり40~1時間待ちなので見学を優先した結果食事はできませんでした。事前に場所や混雑見込み等の情報をもう少し教えていただきたいと思いました。
It was my first time in Okinawa. The weather wasn't great, but it turned into such a wonderful trip that I forgot about it. I definitely want to go again!
初めての沖縄でした。天気がイマイチでしたが、それを忘れるぐらい素敵な旅になりました。また絶対に行きたいと思います!
It was more affordable than going individually. The lunch was not just a small bonus; it was substantial, but it might have been a bit small in quantity for younger people.
個人で行く費用よりお得に行けました。昼食もおまけ程度では無くしっかりしたものでしたが若い人には量が少なかったかも。
It's great that even those without a driver's license can conveniently go to various places. The timing was just right, and I had a wonderful day.
However, all the tourist information was delivered through earphones, and the guide didn't speak at all except for ticket and time information, which was a bit disappointing and felt a little lacking in energy.
It really dampened the excitement for sightseeing.
I will use this service again. Thank you!
免許を持っていない方でも、便利にいろんなところへ行けるのはとても嬉しいです。時間の調整もちょうど良くて、一日満喫で楽しかったです。
でも、観光情報などは全部イヤホンで流れて、ガイトはチケットや時間の案内以外一切喋ってくれなくて、しかも少し元気がない感じで残念でした。
観光の気持ちを一気に下がる。
また使わせていただきます。よろしくお願いします。
