Passeios por American Village

Awesome that they ran this tour for only one person yours truly! but time spent at the American village is a bit short though ... too short to really do anything other than catch a glimpse. They have a guide that actually speaks English albeit she is not a native Japanese

The bus pick-up was on time. The bus is clean and comfortable with Wi-Fi. The driver drives safely. The tour is well organized with ample time for each attraction and not rushed. It is best to take this tour if you don't have a car to go around Okinawa.

We were a party of two. Although there were many tour buses at the meeting point in the morning, it was very clear how to find our own bus. Besides being very satisfied with the itinerary's arrangement, we were 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! The first attraction was Cape Manza, and 30 minutes was a very appropriate and comfortable amount of time. The second attraction was Kouri Island, and the ice cream at the milk shop recommended by the guide was delicious! Three hours at the aquarium was just right, with plenty of time to relax; we saw the dolphin show, visited the gift shop, and explored the large aquarium! Finally, on the way to American Village, although the journey was extended due to traffic, we were able to see American Village at night, and the atmosphere was very nice! Even though it was January, we could still see many Christmas decorations! Overall, the tour we booked this time was excellent, both in terms of itinerary and guide, and it was definitely great value for money!!

The itinerary was very smooth, the travel time between attractions was not far, and the timing was well-arranged. If you don't want to queue for omamori at Naminoue Shrine, you can walk 10 minutes to the bridge opposite to take photos of Naminoue Shrine on the cliff. Zanpa Misaki Lighthouse is well worth climbing the 99 steps; the Okinawan blue scenery is truly beautiful. After coming down, you can have ice cream at the ice cream bus, and there's a public restroom nearby to wash your hands. The timing for dinner at American Village was also perfect; you can walk along the beach and wait for the sunset. After eating, there's still time to browse the AVON shopping center opposite the parking lot. For Southeast Botanical Gardens, we bought tickets that included admission. You need to queue at the ticket office to scan the QR code before entering. It's clear there are many animal areas during the day, but when we went at night, the enclosures were empty. The entire park transformed into a different world; the lighting was truly thoughtful, and the park had many different themes, making it very rich and photogenic. It was a great day trip, very convenient for travelers without a car. Highly recommended!

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

[Guide's Guiding Skills and Friendliness] The guide felt like a veteran, always smiling and guiding us kindly. They were fluent in both English and Japanese. [Excellent Value for Money and Emotional Satisfaction / Okinawa Klook] Due to the nature of group and bus tour products, a key advantage and characteristic is the sharing of extensive information, such as travel tips, culture, and history. The guide always shared this information with a smile, keeping us engaged. The price was reasonable. Furthermore, considering the high public transportation costs in Okinawa and Japan, I was very satisfied that the cost of touring safely by bus all day was so affordable. [Efficient Schedule and Optimized Itinerary] During the tour, we always arrived earlier than other tour company teams, allowing us to eat and proceed with the tour without a rushed or busy schedule. In fact, when we first arrived at the pineapple farm, our tour company was the first to arrive, and we were picked up at a parking spot conveniently close to the entrance. Of course, I believe this was also a result of the tour participants keeping their promises well. In conclusion, I am very satisfied. * They also provided one complimentary bottle of water.

Punto de ubicación fácil de encontrar, bien organizado, puntual. Pude disfrutar del espectáculo de tiburones ballena, manatíes y delfines. Nos recibieron con hermosos paisajes en las excursiones a la isla Kohei, la isla Kouri y el cabo Manzamo.

Tour guide Qian led us through a wonderful day! This trip didn't involve self-driving, so we joined a one-day tour. The attractions in the northern part are very appealing and are among the most worthwhile places to visit in Okinawa. All tour members arrived punctually for departure. Although the journey was long, the tour guide created a lively atmosphere and meticulously introduced the history and important notes for each location. The time spent at each attraction was ample, allowing us to explore everything. However, at American Village, we chose to return on our own because we felt the original 40 minutes wouldn't be enough. The guide also informed us about bus options for returning to Naha. The entire experience was delightful, especially with the guide's explanations. Highly recommended, and the early bird discount makes it even more affordable!
