テレビの情報番組で見たときに、大変面白そうだったので急きょ参加することにしました。当日は天気も良く、真冬の風も寒すぎず快適な環境でした。
私以外はほとんど外国人旅行者の方たちでした。2階部分は見晴らしも良く通常では見ることのできない視点で東京の名所を見て回ることができました。

It is a very good and easy way to known Tokyo, especially for those who visit this city for first time. We had the opportunity to visit important landmarks. Take advantage to book two days because there is a lot to see. We recommend this tour.

There is very little time on this tour at the actual attractions, we had less than 25 mins at Fuji 5th station the highlight of the tour, less if you include the walk to find the bus afterwards.
Lunch at a hotel takes up valuable time on the tour and the food is definitely not worth the cost, is pre-laid out ready so is therefore cold when we arrived (western menu soup, fries, chicken).
Heavy traffic due to a long public holiday delayed the tour by a couple of hours, of course traffic cannot be predicted but on a public holiday weekend it’s almost a guarantee. The tour should have departed early for example on this particular day to allow time at the attractions.
Due to Volcanic activity for the past few months there are some changes to the tour – we were offered that we could cancel once on the bus at the start of the tour – again this could have been pre-advised via email. There is a clause in the fine print that attractions may change – but again this volcanic activity is a pre-understood change to the schedule. Not something that arose on the day itself. So no Hakone Sky Gondola and no Owakudani Valley stop.
Our guide Hitomi was excellent, very organized and knowledgeable and really made the tour – even with the challenges of time a success.
Tip 1 - I would advise getting yourself to the starting point of the tour, we had 1 hour 15 mins wait from the pick-up point which would have been a quick taxi from our hotel.
Tip 2 – Definitely take the bullet train return taking 2 hours off the travel time.
Tip 3 – Order a la carte from the hotel not pre-set as this will be cold and is very expensive and poor quality.
Whole tour expensive for what you get to see

Thank you Veltra for this enjoyable and great tour! It was a gift for my friend for her birthday and it was definitely the highlight of our trip in Tokyo.
The bus was on time to pick up us up from the hotel. The tour started smoothly all the way to the end. Guide was funny and shared about some Japanese cultures. She also had some jokes that are really funny. It was a perfect day when we were on the 5th station. Sky was blue and you can see the top of the Mt Fuji clearly. It was beautiful.
Lunch at the hotel was pretty good. And yeah we love the pirate boat cruise. Unfortunately, the sky gondola was not available because of the strong winds. We went to the temple instead which was pretty good as well.

前々から、オープントップの赤いバスが気になっており、いつか乗ろうと思ってました。友達と何か面白い体験をしたいと思い、今回予約しました。
チケット交換所は、スカイツリーか東京駅近くかで選べます。
私たちは東京駅からにしました。一日券は3コースから選べます。六本木コース、お台場コース、浅草コース。私達は景色がキレイそうという理由で、はじめはお台場コースに。乗車してバスの高さにびっくり。初めは丸の内から出発ですが、いつも見るいろんなビルが違うビルに見えてびっくり。高さでこんなにも見方な変わるのですね。
緑が多くて、キレイな建物がいっぱいで、私はこんなキレイな都市に住んでいたのかと誇らしくなりました。
湾岸の方に向かうバス。なんとこのバス首都高にもこのまま乗ります。ちょっとドキドキでした。
すごく晴れていた日だったので、お台場の景色がキレイに見えます。乗客は6割くらいは海外からの方でしたが、お台場がきれいに見えた瞬間わ皆さん歓声があがりました!レインボーブリッジも通りますよん!
その後私たちはお台場でランチしてまた丸の内まで戻り、浅草コースに参加しました!
お台場コースと違い、景色に花はないですが、高架下を何回も通るのでアトラクションみたいな気分を味わえました。
初めはすぐ飽きちゃうかなと思ったのですが、すごく楽しく、寒全然帰りたくありませんでした。
今度は厚着して挑もうと思います!また乗りたいです!

We were picked up at our hotel by our guide, Hashi and driven to where we boarded our bus for the day. Our first view of Mt Fuji was from the bus, and it was magical, with rivers of snow cascading from the the peak. We were driven to the 5th station, however, by the time we arrived, the peak was obstructed by cloud. From here we proceeded to a lovely hotel where we had a rather strange lunch, cold french fries, hot chicken and lovely crumbed prawn with a very watery miso soup. Following this we were taken to a gondola ride to a thermal region behind Lake Ashi, where the bus met us and took us to Lake Ashi for a cruise in a beautifully designed and decorated replica of a French Galleon. Hashi then explained how we would catch the Bullet Train back to Tokyo, and we were driven to the railway station. Several trains sped through the station whilst we were waiting, which was an experience. Our train ride to Tokyo was very comfortable and an experience not to be missed. We thoroughly enjoyed our day, and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Tokyo.

Thank you Veltra, we had a wonderful day and enjoyed the tour.
The tour was very well paced, not fast and hurried, we arrived at the 5th Station well in formed.
The visit to the Hakone "black eggs" and Sulper Leak was interesting along with the lake cruise, after such a long day the Bullet Train return is a must, back to you hotel as soon as possible.
A wonderful experience, certainly recommended.

This was a good tour. Although we didn't get to view Mt Fuji due to the weather it was still good to go. It's a long day and would suggest taking the bullet train back. Our guide Hashi was knowledgable and helpful. In our opinion we spent too much time at the thermals and the meal we had at the hotel was the worst we had in Japan. But although quite expensive it was a good but not great tour.

I 'm remiss in posting this review. My daughter and I took this trip last year. We traveled from Boston to Tokyo and were thrilled that the cherry blossoms were in bloom. We only had three days in Tokyo before heading to Kyoto so this tour was fantastic. We hit all the high points. We started by going to Tokyo Tower. The views were awesome and we were lucky to be able to see Mt. Fuji. We had a tour of the city, a visit to the royal palace, several shrines, a park, lunch and a boat ride. I found the prices very reasonable for all we got and the lunch was terrific as well. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer questions. The day was rainy and cold but the spirit of all was very bright. We were lucky that it warmed up and we were able to return on our own to some of the spots we saw. I looked at several tour companies before I left and this was the best. I have recommended this company to my boss when she went to Paris and she was happy with her tours as well. I will be using this company next year when I visit Italy.

This tour is definitely worth it!
We did it in Feb 1st week and it was cold but worth the visit to Hakone and Mt. Fuji.
All the sites were very pretty and luckily we got a clear view of the Mt. Fuji.
Our tour guide was extremely sweet and very patient with all our questions.
The cruise at Lake Ashi was also exhilarating.
The most amazing part was the return by bullet train. The most amazing and fast Shinkasen experience!
Would definitely do this entire tour again in another season to see different scenic views!!!!
Thank you Veltra for this awesome trip!!!!

This was a great way for my family and I to tour Tokyo. Using the trains you cannot see the city, and it was very useful to see how to get around Tokyo and how the neighborhoods connect. We stopped at Sky Tree, Asakusa, Akihabara and Nihonbashi, and had enough time to explore each place without rushing. My parents really enjoyed it.

I took a friend from overseas who just started working in Tokyo. We took the SKY HOP bus with the greatest weather. It made our day the best. Even though I live in Tokyo, thanks to the guide I found something new in Tokyo. It truly changed my mood by sightseeing, shopping and the lunch. The sightseeing course is perfect for couples or families. Today we took only one course from the three. Next time I would like to try the others.

I had a one-day ticket, so I rode twice, first at 10:20, from Marunouchi to Skytree, second at 17:30 from Marunouchi to Odaiba. When I was on the first row, it felt like a rollercoaster even though it was a normal curve. You can see a 360 degree panoramic view in the middle as well as in the back. It was so overwhelming. I would highly recommend it for small children. As a grownup, I enjoyed the bus guide’s story, full of knowledge.

街中で見かける赤いバスに乗ってみたくなって申し込み。
1日券って引き替えた日のみかと思ったら、引き替えた時間から24時間なんですね。次の日まで有効でびっくり。(使いませんでしたけど…)
スカイツリーをまわるコースとお台場をまわるコースの2つに乗車。1コースおおむね1時間程度ですね。途中でスカイツリー下車をしてソラマチをぶらぶらしたりもできました。
びっくりなのが高速道路を走ること。オープンバスで首都高を走ったり、レインボーブリッジを駆け抜けたりは滅多にできない体験で、これだけでもこのチケットおすすめできちゃいます。
ただ、3月下旬でも16時過ぎたくらいから寒くなってきます。4月下旬からが良いシーズンかな?
ガイドさんの解説も楽しいけど、声が小さかったり早口すぎたりするのがマイナス。
あと、バス停がわかりにくい&ちょっと場所が微妙なところがちらほら。浅草寺なんか、あそこで下ろされてたどり着けるのかな!?と入らない心配をしてしまいました。規制などもあるかもしれないけど、改善されると良いですね。
でも、都内在住者でもちょっと話題程度に乗ってみるのも楽しいと思いますよ!
