The tour itself was quite enjoyable. However, perhaps because we were with the full-day tour participants, we (the half-day tour group) had no transportation provided, and we struggled to find the meeting point. Despite being told to gather 10 minutes early, we ended up arriving late (with no apology), and on the way back, the guidance for the full-day tour participants took priority, leaving us in a bit of a neglected state... so the experience surrounding the tour was not very pleasant.

Despite being told to gather 10 minutes early, we ended up arriving late (with no apology), and on the way back, the guidance for the full-day tour participants took priority, leaving us in a bit of a neglected state... so the experience surrounding the tour was not very pleasant. I think it's a good idea to confirm whether you'll be with the full-day tour participants when making a reservation. Alternatively, if you go in with the mindset that this is how it is, you might not feel the same way. That said, the tour itself was wonderful, and I was satisfied. ツアーそのものは、十分楽しめました。しかし、一日コースの人達と一緒だったせいかもしれませんが、私たち（半日コース）だけ送迎なし、待ち合わせ場所がわからず、自分たちで探し回った、早く着くので、10分前までに集合してほしいとの依頼連絡があったにも関わらず、若干遅刻（お詫びなし）、帰りは、一日ツアーの人達への案内が優先で、私たちは放置状態・・・などとツアーの前後は、あまり気分のいいものではありませんでした。予約される際は、一日コースの人達と一緒かどうかを、確認されたほうがいいかと思います。または、そんな… ツアーそのものは、十分楽しめました。しかし、一日コースの人達と一緒だったせいかもしれませんが、私たち（半日コース）だけ送迎なし、待ち合わせ場所がわからず、自分たちで探し回った、早く着くので、10分前までに集合してほしいとの依頼連絡があったにも関わらず、若干遅刻（お詫びなし）、帰りは、一日ツアーの人達への案内が優先で、私たちは放置状態・・・などとツアーの前後は、あまり気分のいいものではありませんでした。予約される際は、一日コースの人達と一緒かどうかを、確認されたほうがいいかと思います。または、そんなものだと考えて参加されると、同じような思いはしないと思いました。繰り返しですが、ツアーそのものは、素晴らしく、満足できました。

We sincerely apologize for any discomfort we may have caused you. During our communication the day before the tour, we were unable to convey the details regarding the meeting point effectively, and we also failed to pay adequate attention to all participants throughout the tour.

We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour itself, and we will strive to provide more attentive service in the future. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
Ohootsuku Shizendo, Kanako Umebayashiこの度はご不快な思いをさせてしまい大変申し訳ございませんでした。

ツアー自体はお楽しみいただけたとのことで、今後はより丁寧な対応を心掛けていく所存です。

I booked this tour in Shiretoko for late August. However, it rained on the day of the tour. By the meeting time at 9 AM, the rain had intensified.

The female guide provided rubber boots and raincoats, saying that the tour would go on as long as it was manageable. She mentioned that the rain would lessen in the forest, but since my journey was still ongoing and I didn't want to catch a cold during the pandemic, I decided to cancel the tour at the last minute.

Basically, it seems that this tour does not allow for shortening or leaving midway (possibly due to concerns about bears). I would like to try again. 8月下旬に知床のこちらのツアーを予約しました。
だけど、当日は雨。9時の集合時刻頃には雨が一層強くなりました。

ガイドの女性の方は、長靴と合羽も用意してくださり、これぐらいならツアーはしますよとのこと。森の中は雨が弱まりますとのことでしたが、旅もまだ続けるので、コロナ禍で風邪にかかっては大変と思い、直前でツアーは断念した次第です。

基本、このツアーは短縮と途中離脱はできないそうです。（熊のこともあるようです）
また、再チャレンジしたいな。

Thank you very much for your comment.
On the day of the tour, it was raining heavily at the meeting time, but we proceeded with the tour as we expected the weather to improve.
However, it can be quite difficult to travel if you catch a cold.
I sincerely apologize for not being able to assist you this time.
We truly hope you will join us again next time.

I had a very meaningful time learning about various plants, trees, and mushrooms while walking slowly.

Unfortunately, I didn't encounter many animals or birds, but I was able to truly feel the nature of Shiretoko. I definitely want to come back in a different season.

*I was grateful that they lent me rubber boots since the path was quite muddy.*草や木やキノコなどたくさん知識をゆっくり歩きながら教えてもらえてとても有意義な時間でした。

残念ながらあまり動物や鳥などには会えませんでしたが、知床の自然は肌で感じることができました。また違う季節にも是非来てみたいです。

The weather wasn't great, and we ended up exploring in heavy rain for part of the trip. The visibility was poor, and we couldn't see the mountains behind the lake at all. However, the guide's stories were all fascinating and helped lift my spirits. The explanations about the birds we occasionally heard and the animals that we would have missed if we were walking on our own were also very good. I would like to join this tour again someday, hopefully on a sunny day.お天気が良くなくて、途中まで大粒の雨の中の散策となりました。景色も見通し悪く、湖の後ろにある山は全く見えず。でも、ガイドさんのお話はどれも興味深く残念な気持ちを吹き飛ばしてくれました。ときおり聞こえる鳥の声の説明や、自分達だけで歩いていたら見過ごしていただろう動物たちがここで生きている証の説明もとても良かったです。またいつか今度は晴れた日にこのツアーに参加したいと思います。

After August, it wasn't a guided tour, was it? I requested a guide, but I felt somewhat deceived financially.

The content included stories about bears, plants, and the history of Shiretoko, which I thought was very good. The tour was canceled due to a bear encounter, but by August, they are no longer around. I think experiencing the thrill in July would be better.8月以降、ガイドマストじゃなかったんですね。
ガイドさんをお願いしたわけですが、お金的になんか騙された感じ。

内容は、熊の話、植物の話、知床の歴史とふんだんに教えてもらい、大変良かったと思います。クマとの遭遇でツアー中止となりますが、8月はもういない状況。7月にって、ドキドキ感を味わうのがいいと思います。

We participated as a family. The guide taught us a lot about the nature of Shiretoko and the pioneer era. Also, regarding the bears that have been frequently spotted recently, we felt a sense of security in case of an emergency. I'm glad we participated. We made great memories. Thank you.親子で参加しました。ガイドさんから知床の自然や開拓時代について色々と教えて頂きました。また、最近良く出没している熊に対しても、もしもの場合の安心感が違いました。参加して良かったです。いい思い出ができました。ありがとう。

As a result, it turned out to be quite enjoyable. The guide's explanations were clear and I really appreciated them. We got to see a waterfall and encountered wild deer, making for a unique experience that I wouldn't normally have. I definitely recommend participating in the tour at least once to enjoy the walk while listening to the guide's stories. 「知床五湖ウォーキングツアー五湖一周」を午後一番の申し込みをしましたが、当日午後、ガイドさんの丁寧な説明があり朝のツアーから熊が出てしまいこの日はすべてのツアー自体が残念ながら中止となってしましました。こればかりは自然相手ですから残念ですがしょうがないですね。取り合えず高架木道を往復歩いている間もガイドさんの説明は非常に興味深いもがありました、これで解散かと思ったら少し場所は違いますがそちらを散策すると言う事なのでそれに参加致しました。

The Shiretoko Peninsula is surrounded by the sea, and the mountains of the peninsula reveal different landscapes, sometimes hidden by clouds. Depending on the season, in winter, you can walk to the islands in the frozen lakes. The guide informed us about the Kamuiwakka Falls, which has hot springs that close at the end of October, and we enjoyed a day trip to a hot spring over the mountain pass. Afterward, we returned to Abashiri, where we saw Kunashir Island from Rausu and experienced many other things.

The weather was favorable, and we could see the mountains clearly.
We took three hours to cover 3 km, so it was quite a slow pace.
Our guide, Mr. Umebayashi, was excellent.
He made it easy to understand the formation of the Shiretoko Five Lakes and shared interesting stories about the trees.
It was hot in the sunny spots, but when the wind blew, it was refreshing, and we enjoyed a nice forest bath.天気に恵まれ山がくっきりみれました。

Walking through the forest while listening to explanations was really interesting and I gained a lot of knowledge. The guide's explanations were entertaining, and I was able to see stunning ocean views, making it a fantastic trip.

I also appreciate the thoughtfulness of providing an alternative tour instead of just canceling.あいにく知床五湖に熊が出たーということで知床五湖ツアーは中止になりましたが代わりに原生林の森トレッキングに連れて行ってもらいました。
