Okinawa Prefecture Tours

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!

The song and dance show was amazing! The dancers and waiters were also very friendly, providing excellent emotional value. The whole performance was very high-energy, and they even offered a small glass of wine to everyone for a shared toast. The interactive segments with the audience were also great and highly recommended, whether you're alone, with a partner, or in a group.

It was so amazing to see whales passing under the boat, spouting water, and even jumping right in front of us! We visited for our baby's first birthday and our older child's 11th birthday, and it was safe and great! There was a Korean staff member who could explain safety precautions and provide necessary information, which was 👍👍. The boat was clean, and the large parking lot right in front made it easy to park our rental car! Boat condition: Great! Guide: Very friendly and we were able to have a safe trip! Schedule: We participated in the afternoon schedule and were happy to see so many whales! Seasickness medicine is a must as the waves are strong!
