This experience were amazing. You had an English speaking Japnese guide who gave you clear instructions how to make the Kintsugi. At the beginning you could choose your own small plate or bowl and was show to your own work station there you were guided through various steps what to do as well as got to know how real Kintsugi are done by using the Urashi Tree sap. I. short a amazing and fun experience.
experience: amazing
instructor: Clear and very helpful
location: Easy to find via Google maps very spacious studio with good ventilation.

It’s an incredible experience to learn Kendo under the guidance of a master.
We learned from proper greetings and posture to sparring, competition, and the history behind it.
A must-try experience when you visit Okinawa!

The first floor is a store with reasonable layout. If you like a wallet, you can take it home. You can take pictures in the store. The service staff on the first floor will lead you to the stairs on the second floor. The second floor is the hand-made area. The instructor was very polite and tried hard to tell us the order and precautions of hand-made in English. She also tried to tell us how to improve, but we didn't understand it all. Finally, when the time is up, the bag will be filled with hand-made works, and a note will be given and explained once in advance.

The experience was a 10/10. I wish the workshop had included a bit more about the history of Shisa and Okinawan culture, but I'm not complaining. The staff was very friendly and provided us with all the materials and protection needed to avoid damaging our clothes.

The activity was really fun! I recommend it for everyone and all ages. The clay figurines were so funny and cute. The acrylic paint was of good quality and easy to apply. The packaging is also great.

This day trip to northern Okinawa was very fulfilling and efficient, making it an excellent choice for first-time visitors. The itinerary covered the most classic landmarks in the north, saving you the hassle of planning your own transportation. The Churaumi Aquarium was the highlight, and seeing the massive "Kuroshio Sea" tank in person was breathtaking, while the Kouri Island Bridge and the beautiful ocean views were stunning. In addition, Cape Manza's Elephant Trunk Rock showcased the natural power of the Okinawan coast, and the final stop at American Village offered a diverse selection of shopping and dining, providing a relaxing end to the trip. Although the attractions were far apart, and some time was spent on the drive, the tour guide managed the time well, keeping the overall itinerary tight and organized. Overall, this is a high value tour that allows you to see the essence of Okinawa in one go, and is highly recommended for travelers who don't want to drive themselves. A perfect experience!

Very favorable and super convenient. The waiting place is very close to the hotel. It takes only one stop to get there by tram in the morning. The bus is also very easy to identify. Although he is not Taiwanese, the driver is very friendly and has good driving skills and is very professional. There is no tour guide on the bus, but in fact, many places in Okinawa are very friendly. There are many Chinese. This itinerary also has an audio guide. When you sit on the bus, there will be a guide to tell you where the next stop is, etc. I think it is great, and the guide is available in Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean. The small attractions stayed for about an hour, and the aquarium stayed for three hours. The time was just right and acceptable. The most important thing is that it is really convenient👍👍👍

This [Southern Okinawa Day Trip] was very well-planned and smooth, and the professional Mandarin-speaking tour guide greatly enhanced the experience. A highlight of the trip was Okinawa World (Gyokusendo Cave), where the magnificent stalactite scenery inside the cave was breathtaking. The Kingdom Village offered an opportunity to learn about Ryukyu's traditional culture in depth. A short stop at Itoman Fish Market for lunch allowed us to taste fresh and delicious seafood. The afternoon visits to ASHIBINAA Outlet and Senaga Island perfectly satisfied our shopping and relaxation needs. Senaga Island, in particular, has pleasant scenery and is an excellent spot for taking photos, providing a romantic end to the trip. Due to the number of attractions, the time spent at each location was relatively tight, so it is recommended to prioritize the activities that interest you the most. Overall, this is a high-quality day trip that combines historical culture, natural beauty, and leisure shopping.
