Tokyo without cherry blossoms
Posted Date: 2024/04/21
きょー
Unfortunately, since the cherry blossoms are not blooming, it just turned into a situation of going around in circles on the bus, and because there are cancellation fees, I couldn't change my plans either, which was a bit disappointing.残念ながら桜が咲いてないと、ただバスでグルグルまわっているだけとなり、キャンセル料金もかかるため、他にプランの変更も出来ず、ちょっとがっかりした

Compared to other companies' open-top buses, the brown glass windows create a sense of poor visibility (perhaps due to UV protection?), making it particularly not recommended to ride after it gets dark. Unfortunately, there are hardly any illuminated spots, so you need to strain your eyes to see the cherry blossoms.

Unfortunately, there are hardly any illuminated spots, so you need to strain your eyes to see the cherry blossoms.
While I enjoyed the pleasant drive with a gentle breeze (though this depends on the weather and seating), the cherry blossom viewing was disappointing. There is only one location where it becomes a tunnel of cherry blossoms (the total passing time is only about ten seconds), so it felt like the open-top experience didn't have much meaning.
I appreciate the effort of the guide in trying to make it exciting, but I won't be returning. 他社のオープントップのバスに比べると、ガラス窓がブラウン系のため（UVカットなのかしら⁈）視界不良感が否めず、薄暗くなってからの乗車は特にお勧めできません。（残念ながら、ライトアップされている箇所がほとんどないので、目を凝らさないと桜が見えないレベル） そよ風が気持ちいいドライブは楽しめたけれど（但し、天候と座席によりけり）肝心のお花見は期待外れ。 桜のトンネルとなっている場所は１か所なので（通過時間はトータルで十数秒程度）、オープントップの意味があまりないように感じました。 ガイドのお姉さんが一生懸命… 他社のオープントップのバスに比べると、ガラス窓がブラウン系のため（UVカットなのかしら⁈）視界不良感が否めず、薄暗くなってからの乗車は特にお勧めできません。（残念ながら、ライトアップされている箇所がほとんどないので、目を凝らさないと桜が見えないレベル） そよ風が気持ちいいドライブは楽しめたけれど（但し、天候と座席によりけり）肝心のお花見は期待外れ。 桜のトンネルとなっている場所は１か所なので（通過時間はトータルで十数秒程度）、オープントップの意味があまりないように感じました。 ガイドのお姉さんが一生懸命盛り上げてくれたので感謝していますが、リピはなしです。

I wanted to get off the open bus quickly because it was raining and cold. The VIP waiting room was hard to find and far away. It wasn't enjoyable at all, not even a little. What a shame. 😢桜に早く、オープンバスで雨、寒く 早く下車したかった。 VIp待合室は分かりづらく遠い 1ミリも楽しくなかった。残念😢

The rain was a natural occurrence, so it couldn't be helped, but I regretted participating just to avoid the cancellation fee. The glass fogged up, and I couldn't see the scenery or the flowers from inside the bus, plus it was cold, so there was nothing good about it at all. Even at the initial meeting point, it said to wait until the staff guided us, but even after the time passed, no staff showed up, which left a bad impression of poor organization. Since we paid the same fee as on a sunny day… The rain was a natural occurrence, so it couldn't be helped, but I regretted participating just to avoid the cancellation fee.

While it is indeed written that "the event will proceed even in the rain" and "bring rain gear," there are limits to this. It's unbelievable that they wouldn't close the roof despite the heavy rain. Because of the rain, I could only look down, and even though the guide was showing us the cherry blossom spots, I couldn't see anything. I felt like I was just paying to get soaked while riding the bus. They were selling cheap raincoats for those without rain gear, but they were flimsy plastic.

I felt like I was just paying to get soaked while riding the bus. They were selling cheap raincoats for those without rain gear, but they were flimsy plastic. I don't think they would protect anyone from the rain. It was also sad for the children. I understand the organizers' point that "if the roof is closed, you can't see the cherry blossoms," but since there are windows, I think it would be better to look out from there. It's better than not being able to see anything at all while looking down. 確かに「雨でも決行」や「雨具用意」とは書いてありますが限度があります ひどい雨にもかかわらず屋根があるのに閉めないなんてありえない 雨のせいで下を向くしかなくガイドさんが桜の名所を案内してるのに見ることができません お金を払って雨に打たれてバスに乗ってるだけでした 雨具を持ってない人向けのカッパも売ってましたがペラペラのビニール あれでは雨から守れないと思います 子供もいて可哀想でした 運営側の「屋根があると桜が見えない」というのもわかりますが窓があるのでそこから見ればいいと思いますよ 下を向いて全く見えないよ… 確かに「雨でも決行」や「雨具用意」とは書いてありますが限度があります ひどい雨にもかかわらず屋根があるのに閉めないなんてありえない 雨のせいで下を向くしかなくガイドさんが桜の名所を案内してるのに見ることができません お金を払って雨に打たれてバスに乗ってるだけでした 雨具を持ってない人向けのカッパも売ってましたがペラペラのビニール あれでは雨から守れないと思います 子供もいて可哀想でした 運営側の「屋根があると桜が見えない」というのもわかりますが窓があるのでそこから見ればいいと思いますよ 下を向いて全く見えないよりマシです

I participated in a tour to visit cherry blossom spots on an open bus, but the glass on the bus was tinted, making it difficult to see the beautifully blooming cherry blossoms, which was disappointing. Also, since it was a cold day, it would have been nice to have heating at our feet.オープンバスで桜を名所を巡るツアーに参加しましたがバスのガラスにスモークがかけてあり、せっかく綺麗に咲いている桜が見にくかったのが残念です。 また、参加した日が寒かったので足元に暖房が入ると良かったです。

The cherry blossoms were unexpectedly late, and even though it was a double-decker bus for the opening, I couldn't fully enjoy the experience! It was disappointing. There's nothing that could be done about that. Instead, the guide did their best to share stories with us. I felt that booking seasonal events can be quite tricky.予想外に桜が遅れ、せっかくのオープン二階建てバスだったのに、醍醐味味わえず❗残念でした。こればかりは、どうしようもない事でした。代わりにとガイドさんが一生懸命話をして下さいましたが。 季節のイベントは予約時期が難しいと、感じました。

I booked during the cherry blossom peak season, but unlike the photos, the cherry blossoms weren't close enough to see, and I didn't really need to ride the cold double-decker bus. I only saw one cherry blossom tree at the entrance of Ueno Park as I passed by, so I couldn't see anything inside. It felt like a trip just to visit tourist spots. It was inexpensive, and the guide was decent.桜は満開シーズンで予約しましたが、写真とは違い桜が近くにあって見えるわけでもなく、寒い二階建てバスに乗る必要もないかなと。 上野公園は入り口の一本の桜を見たのみで横を通ったので中は全く見えず。 観光地を回る旅だったかな。 お安かったし、ガイドさんもそれなりかと。

Most of the tours that were conducted experienced unpredictable weather, and it seemed that the cherry blossoms had not yet bloomed. However, on the day I participated, the weather was nice and the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, so I was very lucky. The course was also quite satisfying. I had high expectations for the view from the open-top bus, but unfortunately, the bus windows were dirty and looked foggy. What a disappointment.催行されたツアーは、ほとんどが天気不順で、 桜もまだ開花してないようでしたが 私の参加した日は、 天気も良く 桜も満開 とても ラッキーでした コースもよく満足のいくものでした オープントップバスで、さぞかし 良い眺めだろうと 期待していたのですが，なんと バスの窓が汚れていて 曇りガラスのようでした。なんとも 残念

Sitting in a bus seat while touring Tokyo is incredibly comfortable. However, taking pictures of cherry blossoms while wearing a seatbelt is quite challenging... The nearby cherry blossoms are blocked by the window frame, so you can only capture the distant ones within the frame. Therefore, I recommend enjoying the cherry blossoms from the window rather than focusing on photography. ♬バスの座席に座ったまま東京巡りが出来るのは快適そのもの。 ただし、シートベルトをしたまま桜の写真を撮るのはなんとも難しい。。。 近くの桜は窓枠にさえぎられるため、遥かかなたの桜を窓枠におさめるしかない。 ということで、撮影より車窓からの桜を楽しむことをオススメします♬

The weather was cloudy and cold, and the cherry blossoms were either in full bloom or had already started to leaf out. Because it was cloudy, I couldn't take my time to enjoy the sakura. I just passed by in the car, and I only saw the famous spots from a distance, so it felt more like a sightseeing tour of Tokyo rather than a cherry blossom viewing experience.天気も曇りで寒く、桜も満開か葉桜でした。 曇っているのもあるが、 さくらをゆっくり見ることができなかった。車で通り過ぎるだけ、名所も遠くから見るだけだったので、お花見ツアーと言うか、東京観光って感じでした

It was raining, and I wore the poncho I brought. I sat in the second row from the front. The rain gradually got stronger, and the view of the cherry blossoms was disappointing. Finally, when we were heading back, the roof came out. I wish we had had a roof from the beginning on a rainy day. The guide's sightseeing explanations were good. It would have been perfect if it had been sunny.雨が降っていて、持参したポンチョを着て、1番前から２番目に乗りました。雨が段々強くなり桜も視界が悪く残念でした。 後半帰る時にやっと屋根が出て来ました。 雨の日は最初から屋根有りでお願いしたかったです。 ガイドさんの観光説明は良かったです。 晴れていたら最高でした。

The weather was nice, but it was very cold with the wind! Proper cold weather measures were necessary!! It might have been good that the breeze allowed us to ride without worrying about COVID-19.
I was able to see a lot of cherry blossoms, and I think this was the best time to see them. I regretted not having enough cold weather measures.お天気だったのですが、風があり大変寒かった！ しっかりでした防寒対策が必要 ！！ 風通りがいいからコロナを心配せずに乗れたのは良かったかもしれません。

It was a convenient bus tour that I was able to join the day after the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The tour departed at 3:30 PM, but be careful as it can get surprisingly cold on the way back since it runs on the expressway.都内の満開の次の日に参加出来た便利なバスツアーでした。15時半出発コースでしたが、帰りは首都高を走るので、意外と寒くなるので要注意ですね。

The cherry blossoms are almost not blooming. Even on the trees that are blooming, there are only a few flowers. However, just feeling the pleasant breeze and listening to the guide's stories made for a very enjoyable cruise.桜はほぼ咲いていません。咲いている木でも数輪程度がほとんど。 でも気持ちいい風を感じながら、ガイドさんの話を聞いてるだけで、十分楽しめたクルーズでした。
