What is a cruising bus?

This is a sightseeing bus that allows "free use without limiting the section" for the purpose of operating a tour bus for small groups of travelers in the Corona Disaster. Like conventional sightseeing buses, it not only tours major sightseeing spots, but also allows passengers to enjoy sightseeing tours while freely incorporating local restaurants and souvenir shops since the bus stops are set up in detail. The bus has a capacity of 20 passengers and provides a comfortable and spacious ride.

*If the number of passengers exceeds the capacity, you may not be able to board the bus even if you have obtained a coupon.
