Výlet do akvária Okinawa Churaumi a americkej dediny (odchod z Naha)

Enjoyed the tour, especially the Okinawa Chaurumi Aquarium. 🐟 I can consider it one of the highlights of my trip here in Okinawa. The only bad side is that the tour guide can only speak in Chinese, make sure to book one with an English tour guide so that you will understand what he says. 😅

We spent a wonderful day taking in the sights north of Okinawa with EasyGo's tour guide, Mr Guan (官导游). Fluent in Chinese, Mr Guan was clear in his communications, was very organised and made sure the group was punctual. The highlight of the day tour was Churaumi Aquarium where we had sufficient time to eat an onigiri snack, watch the whale shark swim and to also catch the entertaining dolphin show. The tour covered beautiful nature stops like Kouri beach & Cape Manzamo, and we also stopped at American Village with photoworthy building facades and a promenade.

Cestovali sme dvaja a hoci sme ráno na mieste stretnutia našli veľa turistických autobusov, nájsť ten náš bolo celkom jednoduché. Okrem toho, že sme boli veľmi spokojní s celým itinerárom, sme vďační aj našej sprievodkyni Lulu. Jej výklad o pamiatkach a histórii bol veľmi jasný a zaujímavý a podelila sa aj o svoje osobné skúsenosti a príbehy zo života na Okinawe. Bola tiež veľmi pozorná a milá, pripomínala nám, aby sme sa teple obliekli! Prvou zastávkou bola Manza-mo, kde sme mali 30 minút, čo bolo ideálne a pohodlné. Druhou zastávkou bol ostrov Kouri, kde bola zmrzlina z mliečneho obchodu, ktorú odporučila sprievodkyňa, veľmi chutná! Návšteva akvária trvala 3 hodiny, čo bolo tak akurát, mali sme dostatok času na delfíniu show, obchod so suvenírmi a veľké akvárium! Nakoniec, cestou do American Village, hoci sa cesta predĺžila kvôli dopravnej zápche, stihli sme vidieť American Village po zotmení, čo malo skvelú atmosféru! Hoci bol január, stále sme videli veľa vianočných ozdôb! Celkovo bol tento zájazd, ktorý sme si rezervovali, vynikajúci z hľadiska plánovania aj sprievodcu, a za tú cenu to stálo za to!!

沖繩佔地廣大，旅遊景點之間以大眾運輸來說都會花比較長的時間等待車班，再加上車程遙遠，如果不是以自駕旅遊，又希望可以更單純的遊玩的話，以這樣子的方式旅遊是很舒服的，導遊蠕蠕非常愛跟大家聊天，中文是互通的語言，整體感受上是很好的，基本上這一個行程是以水族館為主要目的，總時常三個小時，以這樣的行程來說是很足夠的，但萬座毛及另一個行程的時間就相對比較短了，拍個照，也就差不多要上車，旅遊前請詳閱公開說明書！

這趟旅行真的非常感謝兩位導遊的用心，北部行程寶導遊非常有耐心而且盡責，預先為旅客設想，怕旅客淋雨，取餐與領票也非常注意大家是否有拿到，讓我非常感謝，這趟旅程雖然遇到下雨，但是內心感到非常充足。 第二天南部行程也非常感謝牟導遊非常用心，的為大家介紹沖繩，路程上都帶著笑容，對小朋友非常友善，在各地抵達時都會發送訊息提醒集合時間，真的非常感謝，讓我非常印象深刻，後續如有機會再來沖繩，一樣會回憶起當初兩位導遊的用心，謝謝您們。

早上從縣廳北口站上車，導遊是福州人，一路上介紹沖繩文化、景點等等，第一站先到萬座毛，第二站是古宇利島，第三站是美麗海水族館，這一站停留時間是最久的，發門票前導遊跟司機有發放飯糰跟一罐茶給大家，很可惜的是這天天氣不好一直飄雨，但還是不影響出遊的愉快心情～ 水族館結束後，最後一站是到美國村，美國村現在每週六晚上8點都會放煙火，所以這次北部一日遊的行程特別訂在5/24，如果想要在美國村待久一點，回程是可以脫隊的，就是記得跟導遊說一聲！晚上的美國村真的很美，很值得留到晚上！還有很推薦大家提前預訂Hanon舒芙蕾鬆餅，真的很好吃！還會想再回訪😍

集合地點在縣廳站，同時間同地點也有其他團很多台遊覽車，還好我們有提早到不然找不到報到的地方，報到處並不是很明顯建議改善，訂購單上也沒有事先提示我們分配到在哪一個旅遊團、遊覽車、所以花一段時間自己尋找領隊才完成簽到，但我們的領隊非常棒，名字叫小林的女導遊，帶團很用心，有不遵守時間可惡遲到的壞團員😡導遊也有嚴厲譴責牠們的行為，遲到拖累大家害我們行程差點被影響，還好有趕上美麗水族的海豚秀，導遊很棒沒有縱容這些自私自利遲到仔的惡劣行為，給小林讚👍行程很豐富，但每個點都停留很短暫，只能走馬看花滿趕的，但物超所值下次會想再參加，也會想去南部遊的行程，沖繩之旅很有趣很精彩，謝謝🙏

帶著兩位60多歲的，對行程安排滿意，當天天氣良好！導遊介紹沖繩詳盡！頭兩個地點都只有30分鐘左右，如果去了洗手間便要很快速的看一看拍一拍照就走！好彩每個地方都真的是很漂亮，隨便拍一拍都滿意！水族館有三個小時還要自行食午餐，所以想多逛逛可隨便吃一點小食！美國村有一小時，太多店看不完，如不想逛，可在海邊坐坐看日落！行程唯一不太好的就是集合地點標示在一家BLUE SEAL 雪糕店前，但是那家店已關門變了其他的店，又未有通知我們，所以大家對於找集合地點都是很不確定！

This is a Chinese tour, which I don’t speak but I knew that when I booked it. I chose this tour because it was cheap and the only one with 3 hours at Churaumi. I was quite apprehensive but it turned out to be absolutely amazing ! All timings were respected, the 30 min stops were just the right time as there’s not much to do. It’s amazing to have 3 hours at Churaumi because time flies there !! The guide immediately took care of me and spoke in English, he looked out for me all throughout the trip and even thought of getting different phamphlets for me in English. That was very nice of him !! I ended up being lucky, I met another solo traveler from Shanghai who spoke English and translated everything for me. The guide joked that it was good so he wouldn’t have to translate himself for me. Although, even without this lucky friend I made, he held a very clear sign with the time of departure for each location. It’s very easy to understand when to leave, you only need to remember the bus number. Meet-up point is very easy to find, he had an orange shirt with the « easy go » name, and again everything was perfectly on time. Very nice tour, thank you so much !! I felt bad to enjoy something not made for me, and to give more work to the guide, but it truly was amazing.

we booked this tour last minute not realising it was a Chinese speaking tour (we only speak English), but the tour guide was fantastic and used a translator to share important information with us. The tour was awmazing, and fantastic value for money. We had plenty of time to explore each location and did not feel rushed. Would definitely recommend!
