Okinawa Prefecture

Ms. Qian, the tour guide, led us through a pleasant day! This trip didn't involve self-driving, so we joined a day tour. The northern attractions were very appealing and were some of the most worthwhile places to visit in Okinawa. The tour members were all punctual in arriving at the departure time. Although the drive was long, the tour guide enlivened the atmosphere and carefully introduced the history, precautions, etc. of each location. The amount of time spent at each attraction was sufficient to see the entire site. However, at the end, in American Village, we chose to return on our own because we felt that the original 40 minutes was not enough. The tour guide also told us that we could choose a bus back to Naha for the return trip. The whole experience was very enjoyable, and with the tour guide's introduction, it is highly recommended. The early bird discount is also much cheaper!

We were traveling as a couple, and although we saw many tour buses at the meeting point in the morning, it was very clear which bus was ours. We were very satisfied with the itinerary, and we are also very grateful to our tour guide, Lulu. Her explanations about the attractions and history were very clear and interesting, and she also shared stories about her life in Okinawa based on her own experiences. She was also very thoughtful and gentle, reminding us to wear more clothes! Our first stop was Manza Cape, and 30 minutes was a very appropriate and comfortable amount of time. The second stop was Kouri Island, and the ice cream at the milk shop recommended by the tour guide was delicious! Three hours at the aquarium was also just right, with plenty of time to relax and see the dolphin show, gift shop, and large aquarium! Finally, on the way to American Village, the journey was extended due to traffic, but we were able to see American Village at night, which had a great atmosphere! Even though it was January, we could still see a lot of Christmas decorations! Overall, we were very happy with the itinerary and the tour guide we booked this time. It was great value for money!!

If you're considering visiting Okinawa and don't plan to drive, an organized tour is a must. Public transportation in the region isn't as well-structured as in other places, which can make access to certain attractions limited. I joined a tour & found it to be a fantastic way to explore the island. Our guide was proficient in both Chinese and Japanese, which made communication easy for those who spoke either language. Although my Japanese is minimal, I felt comfortable participating and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. For English speakers, I believe it's still possible to join the tour, as understanding the key logistics—like meeting points and return times—is what really matters. They do a good job of ensuring that everyone is up to speed, so you won't feel lost. Overall, I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience Southern Okinawa without the hassle of navigating public transport. It's a great way to maximize your time and see the best the island has to offer!

The bus pick up was on time. The bus is clean & comfortable with wifi. The driver drives safely. the tour is organized well with ample time for each attraction & not rushed. it is best to take this tour if you don’t have a car to go around Okinawa.

Good 1 day trip to see fun places in southern Okinawa. generous time buffered. my favorite was the glass boat experience. we didn’t have enough time to go to the aquarium - it’s not included in itinerary.

For some people, it might quite rushed itinerary but for me it was okay especially if you want to visit all of the main attractions. Luckily, our tour guide can speak English so there was no problem with the communications. Thank you so much!

[Guide's Guiding Skills and Kindness] I felt that the guide was a veteran, and he was kind and guided us with a smile every time. He was fluent in both English and Japanese. [Ultimate Value for Money / Okinawa Klook] Group tours and bus tour products have the advantage and characteristic of sharing a lot of information such as travel information, culture, and history. He always guided us with a smile and in a non-boring way. The price is reasonable. Also, considering the prices in Okinawa and Japan, public transportation costs are expensive, but I was very satisfied because it was cheap to tour safely by bus all day. [Fast Schedule and Optimized Travel Route] When we toured, we always arrived earlier than other tour companies to eat and proceed with the tour, so we did not have a busy and hectic schedule. In fact, when we first arrived at the pineapple farm, our tour company arrived the fastest, and we were picked up at a location close to the parking lot. Of course, I think it is the result of the tourists who joined us keeping their promises well. In conclusion, I am very satisfied. * They also give you one bottle of water as a service.

The itinerary was very smooth, the driving distances between attractions were not far, and the time was appropriately arranged. If you don't have to queue to buy amulets at Naminoue Shrine, you can walk 10 minutes to the bridge across the street to take pictures of Naminoue Shrine on the cliff. It's worth climbing the 99 steps up to Cape Zanpa Lighthouse. The Okinawan blue scenery is really beautiful. After coming down, you can have ice cream at the Ice Cream Bus, and there are public restrooms next to it where you can wash your hands and use the toilet. The dinner time at American Village was also just right. You can walk along the beach and wait for the sunset. After eating, there's still time to stroll around the AVON shopping center across from the parking lot. If you bought a ticket with a voucher for Southeast Botanical Gardens, you need to line up at the ticket office to scan the QR code before entering the garden. You can see that there are many animal areas during the day, but when we went at night, the fences were all empty, and the entire park became a different world. The lighting is really well done, and the entire park has many different themes, making it rich and photogenic. It was a great day trip, and very convenient for travelers without a car. Highly recommended!

Very impressed. The grandmother was a great tour guide and even sang for us (her voice was beautiful!). Even though I don't understand much Japanese, I could tell from her tone. The driver was also great, driving smoothly and allowing passengers to sleep comfortably. Sightseeing at the various locations was okay, but I was more impressed with the tour guide and the driver.
