Southeast Botanical Gardens tours

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!!

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!

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.

Wonderful experience, it had been raining and was cloudy. We were provided with rain ponchos. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared about the area and environment. We saw birds and hermit crabs. Guide was great with answering g our questions. Recommend this experience with this organization.

My parents had such an amazing time today. Our guide was fenomenal. He explained everything and was there to guide us through the experience. We went on the kayak first it wasant to hot or to cold, very peaceful, and we got to learn more about plants of Oki. After we had a short break and went to the fishing spot. We were lucky enough to catch a fish and then they arranged with a local restaurant and it was fenomenal.

This northern Okinawa tour is longer and requires more time to reach the destination. The driver will drive you to the destinations stated in the list and you will just have free and easy time till the stipulated time by the driver

Tonight three of us, and maybe 9 other people, joined Miku the tour guide for a trip kayaking to see the mangrove trees and the sunset. Miku was brilliant. Friendly, fun and informative, we felt safe throughout the trip. We were loaned life jackets, crocs if needed, a secure container for our car keys and a waterproof cover for our phones. Instruction on how to kayak was clear and easy to follow. At the meeting point there were suitable toilet facilities and vending machines to get fluids if wanted. The whole trip was magical. We were able to take lots of our own photos but Miku also took lots of each of the groups of people throughout the trip and sent them to us afterwards. We cannot recommend this trip highly enough, truly spectacular. We have great photos to remember our trip. Thanks for a fabulous evening!

It was an amazing experience! The tour guide was very patient and warm — took A LOT of photos of us too! We really had a great time. Suncreen’s a MUST! and lots of water. One of our Okinawa highlights!
