Really great way to see things on the island. The bus also has WiFi which is amazing! Lots of time to see every sight, and not rushed at all.

The stalactites in Gyokusendo Cave at Okinawa World are spectacular, and the traditional Eisa drum performance is also very impressive. If you prefer not to visit the aquarium, you can choose to explore the shopping malls instead. The itinerary is quite flexible and can be adjusted to your preferences. Senaga Island offers beautiful scenery and is a great spot for photos. The seafood at Itoman Fish Market is fresh and delicious, making for a very satisfying meal. The Funpass app provides detailed guided explanations! I highly recommend Klook's Okinawa Southern One-Day Tour. The overall itinerary is rich and well-arranged, saving a lot of time on transportation and transfers, making the entire trip easy and enjoyable.

It was a fantastic experience, driving go-karts at full speed through Kokusai Street and Senaga Island. Even though only two of us participated that day, our guide was very enthusiastic and constantly helped us take photos. I'd love to do it again next time I visit Okinawa! ^o^

This is a very good experience. The company sent a coach to pick us up It is a 1/2 day activity, which is even better than a full day activity. Yes, it is less physically demanding. It is suitable for people who are bringing children or the elderly.

The shop is located inside Makishi Market. Take the stairs from the 1st-floor entrance to the 2nd-floor shop, and just show your reservation confirmation. You'll need to take off your shoes at the entrance and put them in a plastic bag. You'll also be given a large bag for your personal belongings (and a numbered wristband to wear). Any food or drinks should be placed separately on a small table inside the door. Please remember to keep an eye on your belongings, as I left the Chinsuko I bought at Shuri Castle in the shop and forgot to take it with me. By the time I remembered, it was the next day, and it was the shop's day off on Sunday, so I had to leave it for them (cries). This shop is very popular. I arrived on time for my reservation, and there were already at least 4 to 5 Chinese girls getting dressed or waiting in line. It took about 30 to 40 minutes for my turn. I recommend booking the earliest slot if possible to avoid waiting in line and to ensure you get to choose the outer and inner garments you want before others pick them! The staff are very friendly and helpful. Even though they were extremely busy, they patiently discussed what hairstyle you wanted and what obi (belt) style you preferred. They also helped take photos when they had a moment. The service includes hairstyling and dressing (you can choose between a kimono or Ryukyu dress), but not makeup. Two-toed socks are provided. For the Ryukyu dress, you choose the outer and inner garments separately. You change out of your own clothes in a small changing room, put on the nude-colored bodysuit provided by the shop, and then wait in line for hairstyling and dressing. You can also choose your own hair accessories. Finally, after taking all your photos and taking off the Ryukyu dress, you don't have to undo your hairstyle. The shop even gives you a small hair tie as a gift (you can choose the design). This was truly an interesting experience and highly recommended!

We had a reservation this time, but we happened to encounter a typhoon. Upon arrival, we were a bit surprised, thinking the place might be closed because we hadn't received any postponement notifications and the official website hadn't been updated. Luckily, as we were about to leave, we met a staff member who kindly asked us to return in an hour. Although our schedule was delayed by an hour, the activity completely met our expectations! The coral dyeing craft was very interesting, and the staff's instruction and attitude were very friendly. Both adults and children had a wonderful time, especially the children, who were able to fully express their creativity and create unique pieces. Despite the minor hiccup, I highly recommend bringing children to experience this!

After purchasing tickets on Klook, you can enter directly using a QR code, which is convenient and fast. The aquarium isn't very large, but it offers various feeding experiences and is conveniently located near the airport. It's perfect for your first day upon arrival in Okinawa or as a final stop before departing.
