I participated with the purpose of visiting the Dinosaur Museum. Since all transportation and ticket reservations were taken care of, it was very convenient. I was able to learn more about Fukui's trivia and gourmet food than what is typically found in guidebooks, which felt like a great bonus.

The Echizen Great Buddha, a place not mentioned in any guidebook, is somewhere I definitely wouldn't have gone on my own, as I have no interest in Buddhism or bubble-era architecture. It really felt like a unique experience that only a tour could provide.

The departure and arrival were also at the station, making it easy to understand, and it turned out to be a great trip. 恐竜博物館が目的で参加しました。
交通手段、チケットの予約等は全てお任せだったので楽でした。
福井の豆知識やグルメなど、ガイドブック以上のことも知ることができたのはお得感がありました。

越前大仏という、どのガイドブックにも載っていない場所は、仏教にもバブル期の建築にも興味がないので、自分一人だったら絶対に行かない場所。ツアーならではだな、と思います。

発着も駅までだったので分かりやすく、いい旅になりました。

Fukui Station, including the rotary and the surrounding area, is very clean and well-organized, making it easy to find the meeting place. When the bus arrives, the guide will confirm your reservation, so you need to show your voucher and follow their instructions for seating. The number of participants this time was around 5 or 6 groups of two on a Saturday in mid-February. The bus seemed new, and both the exterior and the seats were very clean. The seats can recline as well.

Once the bus departs on time, the guide greets everyone and shares various stories about Fukui. The guide for this trip was very skilled at storytelling, making the travel time informative and enjoyable. They provide information about the highlights of each sightseeing spot in advance, and you also receive a flyer with the meeting place, time, and emergency contact information, which is reassuring for the free time after the tour.

The Dinosaur Museum is a facility that can be enjoyed by both adults and children. Since there isn't enough time to thoroughly view each exhibit, I recommend identifying the displays you want to see before arrival and ensuring you have time for souvenirs as well. Daishizan Seidaiji (Echizen Great Buddha) is overwhelming in size and number, from the building to the Buddha itself. It is a tourist spot that has only recently started to gain fame, and it is somewhat difficult to reach without a car, but the sightseeing time was just right.

Both the Dinosaur Museum and Daishizan Seidaiji are great places for taking wonderful photos, which is another positive point.

If you were to travel around using trains or other buses, it would take a lot of time and cost, so I believe this tour allows you to efficiently explore Fukui. Additionally, the bus was comfortable, and since you can leave your luggage on the bus while sightseeing, it made the experience easy and enjoyable. 個人的には恐竜博物館での滞在時間が物足りなく感じましたが、このほかに予定がある方や多方面に観光を考えてる型にはぴったりのツアーだと思います。

福井駅はロータリー含め駅周辺が大変綺麗で整頓されているため、集合場所もすぐに分かります。
バスが到着するとガイドさんから予約の確認をされるのでバウチャーを表示し、席を指定されるので指示に従って乗車します。

目的地ごと観光先の見所を事前に教えてくれる上、集合場所と時間、緊急連絡先の載ったチラシも頂けるので解散後の自由行動時間内も安心でした。
恐竜博物館は大人も子供も楽しめる施設です。じっくり一つ一つの展示を見るには時間が足りないので、見ておきたい展示がある場合は到着前までに目処をつけておき、お土産の時間も確保しておくことをお勧めします。
大師山清大寺（越前大仏）は建物から大仏まで大きさと数の規模に圧倒されます。近年ようやく有名になりつつある観光地で、車がないとなかなか来れない場所であるのと観光時間もちょうど良い内容でした。
恐竜博物館も大師山清大寺も素敵な写真がたくさん撮れるのも良いポイントでした。

自分で電車や他のバスを利用して回るとなると時間もコストもかなりかかってしまうため、こちらのツアーはかなり効率よく福井を回ることができるんじゃないかと思います。
また、バス内は快適で、荷物もバスに置いて観光ができるため観光も楽々快適でした。

I wanted to go to the Dinosaur Museum, so I did some research and signed up for this bus tour. When you book the bus tour, tickets to the Dinosaur Museum are automatically included, which was convenient as I didn't have to arrange anything myself. It was great to have a fun time with the guidance of the bus tour guide. Since I heard that the Great Buddha of Echizen can't be seen during the winter season, I thought it might have been nice to extend our stay at the Dinosaur Museum.恐竜博物館に行きたかったので、色々調べてこちらのバスツアーを申し込みました。
バスツアーを申し込むと自動で恐竜博物館のチケットもついてくるので、自分で手配する手間がなく便利でした。

Both places were great stops on my route. 車なしでも充実の一日になりました。

I considered going to the dinosaur museum on my own, but I'm glad I chose the bus tour. I felt that the Great Buddha of Echizen didn't convey much history, and I think it would be better to include other sightseeing spots.恐竜博物館へ個人で行くことも考えたが、バスツアーにしてよかった。越前大仏は歴史を感じられず、ほかの観光地を組み込んだ方が良いと思った。

Two elderly women participated.
Entering the temporary dinosaur zone felt like a time slip, and we became children again, despite our age.
It was lucky that it was the first day of the special exhibition.
At Hakusan Heisenji, we were healed by the momentary tranquility and the power spot amidst the heat. I personally recommend it.
Although it was a half-day course, the guide's thorough explanations and guidance made for a fulfilling day.高齢女性2人で参加

I went on my first trip to Fukui with my high school student. Since we didn't plan to rent a car and wanted to visit Hakusan Shrine, we were able to get around efficiently. There was no need to reserve tickets, and we could enter right away in the morning without waiting. Additionally, the car was filled with sightseeing information, history, and souvenir details that we couldn't find online, which made us very satisfied.高校生の子と初めての福井旅行で行きました。車を借りる予定が無く白山神社にも行きたかったので効率的に回ることが出来ました。チケットの予約の必要もなく朝一で待ちなく入れました。また車内では観光情報、歴史やお土産の情報などネットでは得られない情報が満載で大満足です。

During the Obon holiday, my spouse and I participated in a half-day tour, visiting the Dinosaur Museum and Hakusan Heisenji. Normally, we would have to drive ourselves and arrange tickets, but with the tour, we were taken directly to the locations, eliminating that hassle! Especially at the Dinosaur Museum, it was quite crowded that day, but we were able to enter smoothly through a separate entrance for groups, avoiding the long lines.

Especially at the Dinosaur Museum, it was quite crowded that day, but we were able to enter smoothly through a separate entrance for groups, avoiding the long lines.

Hakusan Heisenji featured a fantastical moss-covered approach lined with towering cedar trees. It was an experience that we couldn't normally have, and it naturally instilled a sense of reverence in us.

Additionally, during the journey, our guide from Fukui provided explanations using flip charts and other materials, allowing us to learn about various aspects of Fukui's culture, which I believe adds significant value compared to sightseeing on our own.

This tour is highly recommended as it allows for efficient travel while having an enjoyable time. お盆休みに夫婦で半日コースに参加し、恐竜博物館と白山平泉寺を回りました。

The dinosaur museum was very crowded during the summer vacation and the long three-day weekend, but as expected with tourist buses, we were able to enter smoothly. We also had plenty of time to explore, which was satisfying. Although it was disappointing that Hiraizumi Temple was rainy, I thought I would like to visit the moss temple again for its atmosphere. The guide's explanations were enjoyable, and we had a great time.恐竜博物館は夏休みな上三連休でとても混んでいたがさすが観光バスなのでスムーズに入場できた。また見学時間もたっぷりあり満足できた。平泉寺も雨で残念だったが雰囲気のある苔寺でもう一度行きたいと思った。

About the Moss Temple (Hakusan Heisenji)
It was a valuable experience to visit Hakusan Heisenji, known as the "Moss Temple," for the first time. The grounds, covered in beautiful moss, have a serene and mystical atmosphere. I felt it was a wonderful place worth visiting, with its historic stone pavement and old pond.

Guide and Atmosphere During the Trip
During the trip, the bus guide, who is knowledgeable about Fukui, explained the history and stories of various places in an easy-to-understand manner, sometimes sharing local anecdotes. It was great to learn about Fukui from various perspectives even in a limited time. The guide was easy to talk to and created a friendly atmosphere, allowing me to participate with peace of mind throughout the tour.

Overall Impression
Even in a short half-day, this tour efficiently allowed me to enjoy the unique attractions of Fukui, such as the Dinosaur Museum, the Moss Temple, and the local guide. It made it easy to visit sites that are inconvenient to access, deepening my understanding of the land and its history. I highly recommend it. この「福井発半日バスツアー」に参加して、とても満足できる体験ができました。

[Feedback] My first trip to Fukui. I chose Heisenji from several sightseeing options. I learned about a bus tour that included the famous Dinosaur Museum and decided to use it.

On the way to the first destination, the museum, which took about an hour, the guide provided fun explanations about Fukui Prefecture and the highlights of the museum, and we arrived in no time. One of the advantages of using this bus tour was that it included museum tickets. Receiving the tickets while waiting in line before the opening allowed for a stress-free entrance. Additionally, since the museum is located far from Fukui Station, a car is essential for visiting. Not having to deal with arranging a car or the hassle of traffic to the parking lot was a significant benefit of the bus tour.

After an hour and a half of exploring the museum, we headed to the highly anticipated Heisenji. I am very grateful to the guide who provided enjoyable explanations about the history of Heisenji during the transfer. On the approach to the main hall, the guide pointed out spots that could easily be overlooked, providing knowledge that one wouldn't gain on an individual trip.

While we were strolling, the guide alerted us that a bear had been spotted in the area two hours earlier, so we had to be cautious during our visit. I was moved by the guide's efforts to communicate not only with the participants but also with other visitors. I believe such actions are not easy to perform.

The guide's relieved expression when everyone gathered safely at the meeting point on the way back was memorable. On the return trip to Fukui Station, we received information about delicious restaurants, and before we knew it, we arrived at Fukui Station. In the end, the loud applause from the participants confirmed that using this bus tour was the right choice. [利用日]2025.11.23

有名な恐竜博物館とセットになったバスツアーを知り利用する事にした。
最初の目的地、博物館迄
約１時間の道中、ガイドさんが福井県の情報や博物館の観覧ポイントを楽しく説明してくれて、あっという間に到着。
今回のバスツアーを利用した利点の1つが博物館チケット付きと言う事。開館前の行列に並ぶ際にチケットを貰い、ノンストレスで入館出来た事は大きい。また、博物館の立地が福井駅から離れている為、訪れるには車が必須。車を手配する事や駐車場への渋滞を我慢する煩わしい行程が無いのも、バスツアーの大きなメリットであった。
1時間半の博物館観覧を終え、楽しみにしていた平泉寺へ。移動中も平泉寺成り立ちの歴史を楽しく説明してくれたガイドさんには、非常に感謝です。
本殿までの参道では、見過ごしてしまいそうなスポットを教えて貰い、個人旅行では味わえない知識を得られた。
散策中、平泉寺周辺で2時間前に熊が出没したとガイドさんから参加者への注意喚起が来て、気をつけながらの参拝となった。ガイドさんは参加者だけでは無く、一般も参拝者にも声を掛けている姿に感動を覚えた。なかなか出来る行動では無いと思います。
帰りの集合場所に、無事全員揃った時のガイドさんの安堵の顔が印象的だった。
福井駅への帰路も、美味しいお店の情報を教えて貰い、いつの間にか福井駅に到着。
最後、参加者からの大きな拍手が今回のバスツアー利用が間違いでは無かったとの証明になった。

If you come to Fukui, I recommend it!

I thought it was a cost-effective tour when considering the ticket for the dinosaur museum along with transportation costs.

The smiles and attentive service from the guide and driver were wonderful, and they provided a fun and informative tour. I felt that traveling while hearing information about Fukui from the guide was much more fulfilling than going on my own.

The time allocation was just right, and I highly recommend it!恐竜博物館のチケット込みで交通費も考えるとコスパが良いツアーだと思いました。

ガイドさんと運転手さんの笑顔の対応も素晴らしく丁寧で楽しい案内をしていただきました。やはり個人で行くより、ガイドさんから福井の情報を聞きながら巡る旅の方が充実していると感じました。

時間配分もちょうどよく、オススメです！

At first, I felt that an 8 AM meeting time was a bit early, but we arrived just around 9 AM when the museum opened, so it was great to be able to enter right at opening time and make the most of our time there.

Since it was December and the fog was quite thick, making visibility nearly zero, I felt much more at ease being driven by a professional driver rather than driving myself.

Since it was December and the fog was quite thick, making visibility nearly zero, I felt much more at ease being driven by a professional driver rather than driving myself. During the trip, our guide provided information about the characteristics of the Fukui region and pointed out buildings and scenery from the bus.

At the dinosaur museum we visited on the tour, the guide highlighted specific dinosaurs and key points about the Great Buddha, which helped me understand what to look for, making the experience much more enjoyable than if I had gone alone. During our free time, I was able to enjoy the places I recognized from the guide's explanations even more.

Although the dinosaur museum usually requires a reservation, it was convenient to participate since the ticket price and arrangements were included. I think the time allotted for exploring the museum and the Great Buddha is sufficient for a quick overview, but it may not be enough if you want to read all the explanations and take your time to appreciate everything.

Since we disbanded at Fukui Station around lunchtime, I had lunch in the area. The tour was so fulfilling that I felt like it was still early afternoon when I returned, allowing me to make good use of the rest of the day.

In winter, especially with the potential for snow, being driven directly by bus saves time, and I highly recommend it! Considering that the round-trip bus fare, ticket price, arrangement fees, and guide fees are all included, I think it’s very convenient and offers great value for money!
当初8時集合は早いかなと感じていましたが、出発して到着した頃に博物館オープンの9時頃だったのでオープン時から入場できて結果とても時間を有効に使えて良かったです。
かなり霧が強く視界真っ白の12月の参加だった為、自身で車を運転するよりもプロの運転手の方にまるっと連れて行っていただけて安心でした。
行き帰りとガイドさんよりバス内で福井の地域ごとの特色や車窓の建物や景色の案内をしていただけます。

ツアーで立ち寄る恐竜博物館ではこの恐竜に注目！や、大仏のここがポイント！と教えて下さるので、
自分だけで行くよりも見どころが分かりました。
自由行動の時にここはガイドさんに教えていただいた所だ！と、より楽しむことができました。
恐竜博物館は通常予約が必要ですが、チケット代や手配も込みなので気軽に参加できて良かったです。
博物館と大仏の自由時間は軽く一周して見る分には足りると思いますが、解説等一つ一つじっくり読んでゆったり鑑賞向けではありません。
お昼頃に福井駅解散だった為お昼は福井駅周辺で食べました。
午前でとても充実したツアーに参加して帰ってきてもまだ午後過ぎかと思ったほどで、午後も時間を有効に使えます。
冬の時期は特に雪の影響もあるのでバスで一直線で連れて行ってもらえて時間も節約でき、おすすめです！
往復のバス代、チケット代、手配代、ガイド代全部込みと考えると参加する側としてはとても楽でコスパが良いと思います！

In January, I participated in this tour with my toddler. It was a cold day with snow, but the bus was comfortable, allowing both of us to relax.

First, we arrived at the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum before it opened. We were able to enter without much of a wait, so my child was in a good mood as we started our visit. The museum is spacious, and we enjoyed exploring at a leisurely pace. We spent about 30 minutes in the three-screen theater that my child loved, and there was still enough time … In January, I participated in this tour with my toddler.

First, we arrived at the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum before it opened. We were able to enter without much of a wait, so my child was in a good mood as we started our visit. The museum is spacious, and we enjoyed exploring at a leisurely pace. We spent about 30 minutes in the three-screen theater that my child loved, and there was still enough time to carefully choose souvenirs, which made for a perfect time allocation.

Around noon, we headed to the Great Buddha (Echizen Great Buddha). It took about 10 minutes to get there from the museum. It was larger than I expected! However, it might have been a bit too grand for my toddler, who quickly lost interest. With the snow and cold wind in January, exploring outdoors was a bit challenging, but the breaks on the bus were a nice relief.

During the bus ride, the guide shared various information, including:
- Recommended souvenirs
- Descriptions of the scenery visible from the bus
- Tips on spots that are often overlooked at the dinosaur museum

Overall, the bus travel was comfortable, and thanks to the guide's attentiveness, it was a tour that was easy to participate in even with a toddler. If I have the chance, I would love to join again in a different season! 1月に幼児を連れてこちらのツアーに参加しました。雪も降り寒い日でしたが、バスは快適で親子ともに安心して過ごせました。

まず福井県立恐竜博物館には、開館前に到着。ほとんど並ばずに入館できたので、子供の機嫌も良いまま見学スタートできました。館内は広いので、全体を“さらっと”見るペースで十分楽しめました。子供が気に入った3面シアターに30分ほど滞在してもお土産コーナーでじっくり選ぶ時間が取れるくらいで、ちょうど良い時間配分でした。

お昼頃には **大仏（越前大仏）**へ。博物館から10分ほどで着きました。予想以上の大きさでした！ただ、幼児には少しスケールが大きすぎたのか、すぐに飽きてしまいました…。1月で雪と冷たい風もあって、屋外での見学は少し大変でしたが、その分バスでの休憩時間が嬉しかったです。

バス移動中はガイドさんが
・おすすめのお土産
・車窓から見える景色の説明
・恐竜博物館で見逃しがちなスポット情報
などをいろいろ教えてくれて、とても充実していました。

全体的にバス移動が快適で、ガイドさんの気配りもあり、幼児連れでも安心して参加できるツアーでした。機会があれば、季節を変えてまた参加したいです！

It was the best.

I participated in early January. I was really glad to join the tour because I was quite anxious about driving on snowy roads. The duration of the tour was just right. It's definitely more cost-effective than arranging it myself! If I have the opportunity to visit again, I will definitely want to participate.1月上旬に参加しました。
雪道の運転は不安が大きいので、ツアーに参加して本当に良かったと思いました。
所要時間もちょうど良いくらいです。
絶対に自己手配よりコスパが良い！
次回も不快に訪れることがあれば必ず参加したいと思います。
