Excursão de um dia ao sul de Okinawa: Inclui guia em chinês e ingresso para o Reino Cultural de Okinawa (Caverna Gyokusendo)

The driver and the guide, Mr. Huo, were very friendly. During the journey, the guide shared information about the food and history of the sightseeing places we were visiting. The time allotted for each sightseeing spot was just right for us to walk around and take photos. We had lunch at the Itoman market.

The day I used this service, all Korean companies were closed, and I was traveling alone without a car. I had already visited the northern part of the island, and although I wanted to do a southern tour, I absolutely couldn't drive. Taking buses or taxis would drain my money and energy, so I ended up using this company, which included a Chinese-speaking guide! Since I can speak a little Japanese (I don't think they speak English), I only needed to be told the meeting place and time, so I just went with it. The guide was incredibly kind, made small talk with me in Japanese, and paid extra attention to me since I was the only Korean person! If you're like me, traveling without a car and wanting to do a southern bus tour, I highly recommend it! Unlike Korean companies, the itinerary was a bit different and more substantial, making me feel like I made a good choice! Haha. Also, before going to Senagajima, you have a choice between an outlet mall and Toyosaki Shopping Center; definitely go to Toyosaki. You must visit the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium there; it costs 2000 yen, but it's absolutely worth it! It was a new experience.

良い1日旅行で沖縄南部の楽しい場所を見ることができました。十分な時間が確保されていました。私のお気に入りはグラスボート体験でした。水族館に行く時間は足りませんでした。旅程には含まれていません。

The [Okinawa Southern Day Tour] itinerary was very fulfilling and smooth, and the professional Chinese tour guide greatly enhanced the travel experience. The highlight of the trip was Okinawa World Cultural Kingdom (Gyokusendo Cave), where the stalactite landscape inside the cave was magnificent and breathtaking, while Kingdom Village provided an opportunity to deeply understand Ryukyuan traditional culture. A brief stop at Itoman Fish Market at noon allowed us to taste fresh and delicious seafood. In the afternoon, ASHIBINAA Outlet and Senaga Island perfectly met the needs for shopping and relaxation, especially Senaga Island, with its pleasant scenery, which is an excellent spot for taking photos and checking in, bringing a romantic end to the trip. Due to the many attractions, the time spent at each point was relatively tight, so it is recommended to decide in advance which activities you are most interested in. Overall, this is a high-quality day trip that combines historical culture, natural beauty, and leisure shopping.

The overall itinerary was pretty good. The time at Chinen Misaki was a bit short; it's more suitable for independent travelers to explore. The glass-bottom boat tour was very cost-effective, though it's a shame we didn't see any sea turtles. The food at Itoman Fish Market was actually quite ordinary; Makishi was slightly better by comparison, even though it's more of a tourist trap. DMM Kariyushi Aquarium didn't have many exhibits, but it was very colorful, so whether to visit is a matter of personal preference. Finally, Senaga Island: the area near the beach is great for relaxing, but I found the shops and the Happy Pancake cafe to be just average. However, the outdoor dining areas provided by the shops are perfect for photos (but only during the off-season when there are fewer people and it's not hot, otherwise it's very noisy and summer would be sweltering). (P.S. My Hong Kong travel companions were very loud and talked persistently, which honestly was a bit... nmmmm).

The time management was excellent, making the day very fulfilling. While the schedule was a bit tight, this itinerary is designed for travelers who want to experience various famous attractions, rather than having an in-depth experience at a single spot. The sun was very strong today, especially during the Chinen Misaki and Gyokusendo Cave parts of the trip. Make sure to apply plenty of sunscreen, drink lots of water, and ideally bring a parasol. The car was very well-maintained and clean, which is why the driver insisted we not bring food to eat inside. Also, the air conditioning was always turned on early, so getting into the car felt like heaven. And don't miss the Eisa drumming performance at Okinawa World; it's incredibly impressive! However, the seafood at Itoman Fish Market was a bit disappointing. I recommend avoiding the cooked food; it wasn't fresh, and the grilled shrimp meat turned to mush when peeled. Don't buy anything that's heavily covered in sauce. For the outlet mall, I suggest checking online beforehand to see which stores you want to visit. Based on my experience, unless you know exactly what specific items you want to buy, you'll probably only have time to browse two stores plus tax refund before it's time to gather. By the way, the Sapporo Drugstore there sells electrolyte drinks (they taste a lot like Fin); if you're sweating a lot, you can buy one to drink to prevent heatstroke.

This was a truly excellent experience, and I really liked the tour guide. He is a Chinese speaker fluent in Mandarin. He was very earnest and meticulous. He introduced us to many authentic local delicacies, as well as Japanese etiquette, local culture, and values. He also warmly welcomed our questions about local travel, such as stations, tourist attractions, and transportation methods. I must commend this guide; he even asked us to add him on Line or WeChat so he could easily remind us of the next stop and pick-up time. Furthermore, the time allocated at each attraction was not rushed at all. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this experience! Additionally, the 500 yen oysters at the fish market that day were not very fresh; they tasted quite fishy. However, the salmon was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend everyone try the salmon! All other tourist attractions were very satisfying!

Bringing my two elderly parents along, the entire trip was quite comfortable. It was great to rest and sleep in the car or listen to the tour guide tell stories. Although the weather was cloudy with rain, it hardly affected our outdoor activities. Only the glass-bottom boat tour was slightly delayed due to the weather, but each experience still had ample time allocated. Thanks to Ms. Lingzi's explanations and leadership, my family thoroughly enjoyed this journey. Finally, although there was no sunset at Senaga Island, watching the planes and taking a stroll around was still a very pleasant experience. This itinerary is perfect for those who prefer a relaxed trip – highly recommended!

The organized tour was fantastic, and our guide was incredibly energetic. She even lost her voice, so she definitely deserves a raise! The places we visited were also strategically planned and we kept to the schedule perfectly.

Thank you to our guide, Xiao Zhang, for leading us today. Thank you for your kind and meticulous explanations and care throughout the journey. 🥰 Our first stop was Chinen Misaki Park. Before we got off the bus, Xiao Zhang specifically reminded everyone that the roads were slippery due to the rain and to walk carefully, which made us feel very cared for. The second stop was the beautiful Gyokusendo Cave, where we admired the natural wonders of the stalactite formations, which were truly breathtaking. The third stop was Itoman Fish Market, where a wide variety of fresh delicacies made our mouths water. Everything was delicious and satisfying. Our fourth stop was the long-awaited aquarium. In addition to admiring marine life, we could also shop at the nearby mall, bringing a perfect end to this trip. What made me happiest on this trip was not just seeing the beautiful scenery, but seeing my mother's face full of smiles. My mother was especially happy, like a child, full of curiosity and anticipation for every attraction. She happily took photos, tasted delicious food, and enjoyed the precious time traveling with her daughter. Being able to create these memories with my mother is the greatest happiness of this trip for me. ❤️ Today's itinerary was very fulfilling, leaving many wonderful memories. I am very happy to have come to Okinawa and look forward to returning to this place full of sunshine and passion with my family next time. Thank you, Okinawa, and thank you, Guide Xiao Zhang. We will definitely come again next time! ❤️✈️🌴
