The reservation for two people was not made.

Despite the fact that the cost for two people was deducted, I was told that there was no reservation for two. The tour guide also got angry with me. Additionally, it seemed like our seats were going to be separated, making it a terrible tour experience.費用は2人分引き落とされていたのにも関わらず、2名の予約はされていないと言われ、 添乗員に逆ギレされた。 また、座席も離されそうになり、最低なツアー体験でした。

I sincerely apologize to the customers for the oversight in the number of guides noted for November 23, as there was only one written down. However, there were still available seats that day, so we were able to accommodate both customers. The tour proceeded as planned. I again apologize for the initial lack of confirmation. Fortunately, both the process and the outcome went smoothly. I sincerely regret that there were aspects that did not lead to a pleasant start for the customers.11月２３日でガイドの人数メモに書いた一人しかないことにお客様に本当に申し訳ございません。 だだし、その日余裕な席まだありますので、お二人のお客様に乗車させました。計画どおりにツアーに進めました。 最初の 確認不足に再び申し訳ございません。幸いにも過程も結末も順調でした。 お客様へ快い始まりのツアーに至らない点がありましたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。

Amanohashidate and Ine were wonderful places worth visiting at least once. However, the tour itself was the worst.
First, the sightseeing boat in Ine could only be booked at 12:00 or 16:00, so the order of Amanohashidate and Ine was suddenly switched. At this point, it was already questionable, but then the driver made a wrong turn, causing a nearly 20-minute delay, and we ultimately missed the 12:00 boat, changing to the 16:00 boat instead. We toured Amanohashidate as originally planned. At this… Amanohashidate and Ine were wonderful places worth visiting at least once. However, the tour itself was the worst.

At this point, it was already questionable, but then the driver made a wrong turn, causing a nearly 20-minute delay, and we ultimately missed the 12:00 boat, changing to the 16:00 boat instead. We toured Amanohashidate as originally planned. At this point, the guide was expressing dissatisfaction with the driver in Chinese and venting to the Chinese tourists after arriving at Amanohashidate. The guide probably wanted to say that it wasn't their fault, but from the customer's perspective, the guide and driver are on the same team. By the way, the driver did not apologize for the delay at all.
We headed from Amanohashidate to Ine, but this time the guide and driver started arguing again about whether we could reach the funaya by bus. The guide used the bus microphone to express dissatisfaction with the driver in Chinese again, leaving non-Chinese speakers completely out of the loop. Also, although we were supposed to gather at the parking lot at 15:45, the bus was nowhere to be found. While the parking spaces were full, it seemed there was a lack of communication between the guide and driver, and we were left wandering around not knowing where to board.
After disembarking from the sightseeing boat, we stopped by the tourist information center to pick up those who hadn't taken the boat, but there was no explanation about this at all. In the end, we arrived at Kyoto Station an hour late, but despite the obvious human error causing the delay, there was no proper apology.
Additionally, with 48 participants, the bus was so cramped that it couldn't accommodate everyone without using extra seats, leading to arguments among tourists over seating. Couldn't they have capped the tour at a smaller number or arranged for two buses?
This tour began with an unthinkable mistake for a professional, where the sightseeing bus driver made a wrong turn, followed by a clear lack of communication between the guide and driver, and the guide's lack of professionalism in airing internal issues to the customers. I was exhausted from being caught up in things I never wanted to see as a customer. I never want to experience a tour like this again. 天橋立と伊根は素晴らしいところだった。一度は足を運ぶ価値のある場所である。ただし、このツアー自体は最悪だった。
The tour guide frequently expressed feeling unwell, which made us anxious. On our way from Kyoto to Amanohashidate, we took the wrong highway, and as soon as we exited the interchange, we had to make a U-turn in front of the toll booth and get back on the highway. This was the first time I experienced something like this while using a bus. I was worried that an accident might happen. After that, I felt uneasy.

This was the first time I experienced something like this while using a bus. I was worried that an accident might happen. After that, I felt uneasy. In the end, we missed the sightseeing boat at Ine's Funaya that we were supposed to take in the morning. Despite the bad weather in the evening, the bus departed without checking on the passengers left behind. Even while driving on the highway, the tour guide was moving around the bus collecting fees for optional activities and was being called out loudly by the driver. It seemed that the coordination between the driver and the tour guide was terrible, creating a negative atmosphere inside the bus. ＊添乗員の方が、体調不良をしきりにアピールし、こちらも不安になりました。 ＊京都から天橋立へ向かう際、高速道路を間違えたとのことで、インターチェンジを降りた途端、料金所の前でUターンし、再度高速道路に乗りました。 今までバスを利用し、このようなことは初めてです。事故が起こるのでは？と その後は不安でした。結局午前に乗る予定だった伊根の舟屋の遊覧船にも間に合いませんでした。夕方には、天気が悪かったにもかかわらず、乗客を点呼もせず残したまま出発しました。 ＊高速道路を走っているにもかかわらず、添乗員の方はバ… ＊添乗員の方が、体調不良をしきりにアピールし、こちらも不安になりました。 ＊京都から天橋立へ向かう際、高速道路を間違えたとのことで、インターチェンジを降りた途端、料金所の前でUターンし、再度高速道路に乗りました。 今までバスを利用し、このようなことは初めてです。事故が起こるのでは？と その後は不安でした。結局午前に乗る予定だった伊根の舟屋の遊覧船にも間に合いませんでした。夕方には、天気が悪かったにもかかわらず、乗客を点呼もせず残したまま出発しました。 ＊高速道路を走っているにもかかわらず、添乗員の方はバスの中を移動しながらオプションの料金を集めており、ドライバーから大声で呼ばれていました。 ＊ドライバーと添乗員の方の連携が最悪の様で、バスの中の雰囲気が悪かった。

It was a three-day weekend, so there were a lot of people! Also, the highway was congested, which made travel time longer. There weren't many restroom breaks, so I thought it might be tough for the elderly. Additionally, there were many people from China.三連休だったので、とりあえず人がいっぱいでした！そして、高速が渋滞で移動に時間がかかってました。 トイレ休憩が少なかったので、お年寄りは大変なのではないかと。 あと、中国の方が多かったです。

I participated in a day trip tour from Osaka to Amanohashidate and the Ine Boat Houses. I think I could probably go on my own, but the tour is convenient since they take you by bus. Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, so Amanohashidate looked a bit hazy, but it was still very beautiful. I didn't know about the Ine Boat Houses, but it's a very lovely town that you can explore in about 20 minutes. Riding the sightseeing boat and feeding the seagulls was also a lot of fun.大阪から日帰りで天橋立、伊根の舟屋のツアーに参加しました。 自分でもおそらく行けるのだと思いますが、バスで連れて行ってくれるので、ツアーは楽です。あいにくの曇り空だったので、天橋立は少し霞んで見えましたが、でもとても綺麗でした。伊根の舟屋の存在は知らなかったのですが、とても綺麗な街で20分もあれば全てまわれます。遊覧船に乗ってカモメの餌やりもとても楽しかった。

Since it was my first time at Amanohashidate, I was purified by its beauty, which exceeded my expectations. We only had about two hours of free time, but I felt that was just about right.
Next, we boarded the Ine Bay sightseeing boat. The beautiful sea and the number of seagulls were amazing, and it was a fun experience! However, be careful of the black kites. A friend who joined the tour got scratched by one.
Finally, we visited the Ine boathouses. The breathtaking view was moving. However, we only had 30 minutes there, and I wished we had another 30 minutes. I also wanted to visit the Kōyōmaru boat, but due to time constraints, I thought it would be great if the tour could either extend the time or include it.
Overall, it was truly the best memory, and both the bus driver and the guide were wonderful people.

I participate in bus tours quite often, but this was the first time I've encountered a guide who was so enthusiastic and passionate, even including Japanese participants.
Therefore, since the guide is fluent in Japanese, I think it would have been even more wonderful if they had included a little bit of conversation in Japanese. There might be some Chinese guests who are learning Japanese, so having that kind of time would be nice.
In terms of sightseeing, the bus moved smoothly, and we were given more time than planned at Amanohashidate, which was enjoyable. The sightseeing boat in Ine was quite chaotic with seagulls swarming around. There was probably an explanation about the history and scenery of Ine, but I couldn't hear anything. A long time ago, there was a bestseller called "Jonathan Livingston Seagull," but this was more like "Jama-san the Seagull (the annoying one)."
That aside, despite the unfortunate rainy weather, thank you for a wonderful trip. 総勢三十数名のうち、日本人は４名のみ。それは初めから予想していたことだし、ガイドさんもとても気配りをしていただき、何の問題もありませんでした。ガイドさんは行きの車中、２時間余り、ほぼずっと中国語で説明していました。私も結構バスツアーに参加しますが、こんなに熱心に、そして情熱的に解説するガイドさんは、日本人を含めても初めてです。 なので、せっかく流暢な日本語が話せるのだから、少しだけでも日本語での話を交えたら、より素晴らしいものになったと思います。中国のお客さんのなかにも日本語を習っている人もいるか… 総勢三十数名のうち、日本人は４名のみ。それは初めから予想していたことだし、ガイドさんもとても気配りをしていただき、何の問題もありませんでした。ガイドさんは行きの車中、２時間余り、ほぼずっと中国語で説明していました。私も結構バスツアーに参加しますが、こんなに熱心に、そして情熱的に解説するガイドさんは、日本人を含めても初めてです。 なので、せっかく流暢な日本語が話せるのだから、少しだけでも日本語での話を交えたら、より素晴らしいものになったと思います。中国のお客さんのなかにも日本語を習っている人もいるかもしれないので、そういう時間があってもいいかと思います。 観光面では、バスが順調に進み、天橋立で予定以上の時間を取っていただき、満喫できました。伊根の観光船は、なにせ鴎が群がって大騒ぎ。たぶん伊根の歴史や風景に着いて説明があったのでしょうが、なにも聞こえませんでした。だいぶ前に「カモメのジョナサン」というベストセラーがありましたが、こちらは「カモメのジャマサン（邪魔さん）」ですね。 それはともかく、あいにくの雨まじりの天気でしたが、楽しい旅をありがとうございました、

During the walk, I carelessly forgot to rent a bicycle and could only go as far as Amanohashidate Shrine on foot. I recommend renting a bicycle.
If you want to enjoy the scenery during the Ine cruising, choose the first floor. The second floor has a good view, but I couldn't hear the onboard announcements due to the seagulls and the shrimp chips. I ended up losing quite a bit... I received a lot of "good luck" in a different sense.
For exploring Ine Town without bothering the residents, there is a café where you can enjoy coffee in a funaya (fishing house) about a 5-minute walk away.
Everyone, have a wonderful trip! 天気も最高！ガイドの胡さんのお心遣いが素晴らく、素敵な旅となりました！本当にありがとうございました。 朝の集合場所はごった返してます。バーチャーにガイドさんのお名前の記載がなかった為、他のガイドさん方のご尽力により何とか出発に間に合いました。※ガイドさんのお名前要確認です。 天橋立の入り口旋回橋は、日曜でしたら1時間置きにデモンストレーションで旋開くそうです。 散策時、私は迂闊にもレンタサイクルを忘れ徒歩でしたので天橋立神社辺りまでしか行けませんでした。レンタサイクルをお勧めします。 伊根クルージングで景… 天気も最高！ガイドの胡さんのお心遣いが素晴らく、素敵な旅となりました！本当にありがとうございました。 朝の集合場所はごった返してます。バーチャーにガイドさんのお名前の記載がなかった為、他のガイドさん方のご尽力により何とか出発に間に合いました。※ガイドさんのお名前要確認です。 天橋立の入り口旋回橋は、日曜でしたら1時間置きにデモンストレーションで旋開くそうです。 散策時、私は迂闊にもレンタサイクルを忘れ徒歩でしたので天橋立神社辺りまでしか行けませんでした。レンタサイクルをお勧めします。 伊根クルージングで景色を楽しみたいなら1階。2階は見晴らしは良くてもかっぱえびせん目当てのうみねこと鳶クルージングで船内放送も聞こえず。自分一人かなりの落とし物…別の意味での「うん」を沢山貰ってしまいました。 伊根町散策は住民の皆様にご迷惑をおかけすることなく舟屋気分を味わえる「舟屋でコーヒーが飲める」お店が徒歩5分位にあります。 皆さんどうぞ楽しい旅を！

I made friends with a foreigner who was participating alone, and we got to hang out together. The scenery was amazing, and I had a lot of fun. The guide explained everything in three languages and was very considerate, which made me feel comfortable participating.1人で参加されてる外国人の方と仲良くなって一緒に行動したり、景色も最高で凄く楽しかったです。 ガイドの方も3ヶ国語で説明して下さり、気を使ってくれたりと安心して参加できました。
