Okinawa Prefecture
Okinawa, Japan’s southern island paradise, is famed for its turquoise seas, subtropical climate, and rich Ryukyu heritage. Beyond its stunning beaches, the main island offers world-class diving, vibrant coral reefs, and historic sites like Shuri Castle and the Nakijin and Nakagusuku Castle Ruins. Visitors can explore traditional villages, lush forests, and unique cultural experiences year-round. Okinawa’s food scene is equally captivating, featuring local specialties such as Okinawa Soba and slow-braised Rafutee. With its blend of natural beauty, history, and warm island hospitality, Okinawa promises an unforgettable journey in every season.

We had a fantastic private tour with Takashi. He was a super great guide. We went kayaking down a small mangrove river, then he made us lunch at great location with a fantastic view. After that we went on a small trek on a jungle path where we went swimming near a small waterfall in the jungle. Superb experience all of it.

We saw that the next day was going to be sunny and decided to book this experience. Our group was led by Masutani Ryoma-san and Yuuri-san. They are amazing, super fun team and very knowledgeable. The entry to the pumpkin cave is a leisurely kayak. The cave itself was so amazing, and the guides shared so many interesting facts about this holy site. theres some climbing inside the cave, but we felt safe the whole time. it was such an enjoyable experience and we recommend anyone visiting Miyako to try it. Thank you Ryoma, Yuuri and the Adventure Pipi team. 🫶

We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. Two adults and a child could fit in the same kayak. The aerial photography experience was great, and the staff was very polite. We communicated using phone translation. There was parking available, indoor changing rooms, and an outdoor water supply for rinsing off.

Sebastian is a great guide and made sure we were comfortable and entertained. All the equipment in the necessary was provided by the tour and the pickup from the hotel made everything all the more convenient.
