So much fun! Make sure to wear long sleeves, long pants, and closed-toe shoes. The staff provides a very detailed explanation before the activity and pays close attention to everyone's safety during the rafting. After reaching the finish line and getting ashore, there are hot showers available, and you can even grab a zongzi to satisfy your hunger. Highly recommend white water rafting when you visit Hualien!

Queue Times: For the early pass, it's best to arrive at the entrance by 8:30 AM to get the most out of it. The day pass allows you to enter and exit throughout the day. It's a good idea to bring your own water and food if you're on a budget. Price: Usually 5-10% cheaper than buying directly from Disney. Entertainment: There are activities and shows throughout the day. Check the DisneyHK app for the schedule. The last show is the fireworks display at the castle, which ends around 9:30 PM. Amenities: There's a shuttle service and the MTR train goes directly to the entrance.

A huge thank you to Mr. Kinjo. Although we booked a Japanese-speaking driver this time, Mr. Kinjo was very enthusiastic and even offered to take photos for us. After translating to the driver using a mobile phone, there were absolutely no communication barriers. Even when we returned to the car earlier than the agreed time, he was always waiting for us at the drop-off point. Very professional, awesome. We will choose Easy Travel again next time.

Very good value shuttle bus return service despite long duration journey of 2.5-3 hours one way! Make sure you redeem your ticket voucher at Naha Bus office inside the Naha Domestic Terminal as soon as you clear immigration!

This American Village one-day bus pass is perfect for travelers who don't drive. I departed at 9:00 AM and returned at 3:00 PM, which was plenty of time. Remember to arrive 10 minutes early at the Lea Lea bus stop (a few minutes' walk from Kencho-mae Station), show your QR Code, and the staff will verify your name and provide you with a schedule and a map of American Village (I basically just wandered around and didn't find it too difficult to navigate). The departure was also very punctual (45 minutes), and the arrival time was accurate to the second, even accounting for traffic. Japanese service is truly attentive. The driver was also amazing. Since it was raining that day, there were umbrellas on the bus. The driver thoughtfully handed umbrellas to passengers as they got off. After arriving, I went to Depot Island for breakfast. They didn't have the sea grape option, so I had bitter melon instead, which was a little bittersweet and very unique. Then I went to Aeon to browse the supermarket and Daiso, and also had a morning tea at Mr. Donut. This shop is very popular, I saw everyone buying a lot. After returning to American Village, I wandered around some more and had the taco rice that was recommended online. I ordered the basic omelet version, with a good balance of lettuce and tomato, which tasted very fresh and not too heavy. I paired it with non-alcoholic Orion beer; even if you don't drink alcohol, you can try the famous local beer. After walking around a bit more, I went to the drop-off point to wait for the return bus. We arrived back at Kencho-mae before 4:00 PM. You can plan to have dinner and stroll around Kokusai Street. If you want to travel in a relaxed and leisurely way, you can consider this plan.

The taxi fare from Naha Kokusai-dori Hotel to Moon Beach Hotel in Onna Village is quite expensive, around ¥7000, so I bought limousine bus tickets, which cost about ¥1500 for one adult and one child. I couldn't book on the official website, but I managed to book on Klook. On the first day, after getting off the plane, I inquired about paper tickets at the limousine counter in the domestic departure area of the airport. They gave me luggage tags, but no paper tickets. On the day of departure, I departed from bus stop number 11 at the Naha Bus Terminal. There were two staff members checking names and helping with luggage. The bus wasn't crowded, only about a third full, and it was a very comfortable air-conditioned bus that took us directly to the hotel entrance. It was so convenient.

The pickup point is not far from the Prefectural Office Station. They can communicate in English and also have documents with explanations in Chinese. The bicycle has three speeds. The staff asked me to add their official Line account so I could ask questions immediately if needed (I didn't use it). The bicycle has its own lock, but what bothered me was not knowing where you can't park bicycles in Okinawa, so I followed where others parked. There is a penalty for late returns. When I returned the bicycle, the staff checked it briefly and let me go.

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!
