Ting at lave i Southeast Botanical Gardens

I really have to give a big shout-out to Director Mou and the driver on August 25th. That day was actually the eve of a typhoon, and many areas in the north had issued warnings and canceled their plans. Our central Japan itinerary, including the Kadena Air Base, also had its flight training canceled. We received storm warnings upon arriving in Nago and other areas. However, thanks to Director Mou's flexible arrangements and the warm cooperation of our handsome driver, all outdoor activities were scheduled for the morning. After noon, all activities were indoors, so we didn't feel the wind and rain as much and could enjoy shopping with peace of mind. This prevented the typhoon from ruining our trip, making it a very pleasant and wonderful memory. I highly recommend the dedication of this travel agency's staff! ♥️

Although I give this tour 5 star rating, with one caviat, we had some misunderstanding with tour guide in the morning, after addressing my concerns, later it was resolved. I would extend American Village by maybe half an hour, although we had an option to stay and later come back at our own expense. I believe hour and a half would be sufficient without being rushed, I wills cut short Cape by 15 mins and aquarium by another 15 mins. Otherwise bus was great, and I enjoyed the day.

The southern tour itinerary is very comfortable, and the distance between stops is much shorter than in the northern part, so there is almost enough time to explore everywhere. It is very easy to find the tour guide at the meeting point. Mr. Guan's explanations were friendly and interesting, helping us better understand local Okinawan culture. The glass-bottom boat costs an additional 2000 yen, but the underwater views are incredibly clear and well worth recommending. Shopping is a choice between the OUTLET and iias; choosing iias means slightly less shopping time in order to pick up the OUTLET group on the way back, but you get a good ice cream discount coupon. The DMM aquarium is next to iias, and discounted tickets are also available. Since there are many interactive activities inside, it is totally fine to separate from the group and stay longer to explore and play. However, Senagajima island next is truly beautiful with the sunset, and if you get tired of walking, you can soak in the free foot bath to relax.

The timing was perfect, and the meeting point was convenient (right at the Kokusai-dori Kencho-mae Station), which was very helpful for us since we weren't driving in Okinawa. Next time we visit Okinawa, we'll definitely choose other sightseeing bus routes.

Vi er en familie på fire, der brugte Okinawa-passet i Golden Week, og det var 100 % det værd. Vi kunne opleve fire forskellige ting, herunder Okinawa World, snorkling i Den Blå Grotte, akvariet og den sydøstlige botaniske have. Min anbefaling er at bestille i forvejen. Tjek vejret, da vinduet lukker hurtigt dagen før.

De fleste attraktioner på Okinawa har gratis parkering, hvilket er meget praktisk. På dagen for vores besøg var hovedparkeringspladsen ved zoologisk have ret fyldt, men vi fulgte skiltene til sideindgangen, hvor der stadig var masser af pladser – fantastisk! Det var nemt at købe billetter via Klook. Vi skulle blot vise vores voucher i besøgscentret for at indløse billetterne, som var en smule billigere end dem, der sælges direkte i zoologisk have. Faktisk er billetterne også meget billige, hvis man køber dem på stedet, og det er absolut værd at tage børnene med for en oplevelse. Parken er ikke stor, men den er meget børnevenlig. Der er ramper overalt, så man nemt kan køre med barnevogn, selv op på gangbroerne. Kortet viser tydeligt de forskellige områder med forskellige dyr, og man kan gå hele vejen rundt uden at skulle vende om, så man får set hele parken. I nogle områder kan man fodre små dyr; vi prøvede at fodre chinchillaer, hvilket var en vidunderlig første oplevelse for børnene. Det overordnede miljø er meget rent, og der er rigeligt med toiletter. Der er også små madvogne, hvor man kan få noget at spise, samt små forlystelser og et indendørs legeområde for børn. Alt i alt er dette et sted, der er meget værd at opleve for familier.

Meget god værdi for pengene, kan klart anbefales til alle, der besøger Okinawa, at tage til Blue Cave med denne tur. Servicen var fremragende, og guiden AKA tog sig godt af os og tog smukke billeder og videoer. Vi var tre personer – forældre og barn – og barnet elskede det og havde det sjovt. AKA tog sig også godt af vores barn. Alt var sikkert. Kan varmt anbefales til alle, der kommer hertil.

Was a decent service and amazing tour to Blue cave and dive with incridble guide name Kato which helped and took very nice photos and Videos under occean . So I was very happy I got nice videos from Nemos as well :)) Thanks and I highly recomended
