Shurijo Castle

Experience: A great experience! Even though the weather wasn't ideal, we were able to complete the entire trip, which made me very happy and satisfied. 🥰 Instructor: Very friendly, taught and led the entire tour meticulously, and helped take many photos and videos. Extremely satisfied; I will definitely book again next time I visit Okinawa! 👍 Equipment: The equipment was safe and suitable, excellent. Safety: The instructor was incredibly attentive and led the entire tour.

it was raining in okinawa the day i took the trip (it wasn't raining during the bus ride so the staff was nice enough to keep the sunroof open) it was already raining when i got back to the bus and the staff had closed the sunroof beforehand keeping my stuff safe and dry inside!

Our Guide Maria was really great. She's fluent in English and taught us a lot about the local history and culture. She was funny and easy going. Even though the castle itself was under restoration after the fire, she showed us around every part that was open to the public and also explained in detail how the restoration process was going. Because of the rain she offered us to skip some walking and take a cab, but we opted to walk instead. She took care of us so we didn't walk into any spider webs and made sure we didn't slip on the wet rocky path. The lunch was amazing, it was a very nice restaurant that we would've never discovered without her. Overall an amazing tour with a lovely guide. 10/10 would recommend

Maria was an awesome tour guide! She was positive, friendly, and answered all my questions. I really appreciated her communication before the tour, reaching out and giving information about where to meet. There was a typhoon coming, so some parts of the castle were closed off in preparation for the storm. The castle is also under rennovation and will be completed later this year. Regardless, I enjoyed seeing the architecture and had an excellent time. Maria explained different cultural and historical contexts that I would have not known had I gone by myself. She also helped take pictures. Lastly, the royal mausoleum was interesting and it felt like a hidden location. I highly recommend taking this tour :)!

It was so much fun! The airtime of about 5-10 minutes felt just right. The two Japanese staff members were very nice, communicating with simple English and gestures. The arrangements were smooth, and they even took photos and videos for us. The whole process took about 1 hour (including going out to sea and waiting time). There were three groups on our boat, including one Japanese group, and everyone was very satisfied; it was an unforgettable experience.

Dobrá skúsenosť, bezproblémová a vopred rezervovaná cez Klook, cena je lacnejšia a nemusíte sa obávať, že sa lístky na preferovaný časový úsek vypredajú. Celkovo veľmi dobrá skúsenosť s prehliadkou, veľmi bezpečná a príjemná. Z lode môžete vidieť podzemné ryby a scénu kŕmenia rýb.

Obchod sa nachádza v tržnici Makishi. Z vchodu na 1. poschodí vyjdite po schodoch na 2. poschodie a ukážte potvrdenie o rezervácii. Topánky si vyzujte pri vchode do obchodu a vložte ich do plastového vrecka. Na osobnú batožinu dostanete veľkú tašku (a tiež náramok s číslom, ktorý si nasadíte na ruku). Jedlo a nápoje musíte odložiť na malý stolík pri vchode. Naozaj si pamätajte, aby ste si svoje veci strážili, pretože som zabudla v obchode koláč Kinchoko, ktorý som si kúpila na hrade Shuri. Spomenula som si na to až na druhý deň, ktorý bol nedeľa a obchod bol zatvorený, takže som ho musela nechať pre obchod (plač). Tento obchod je veľmi populárny. Prišla som presne na čas mojej rezervácie a už tam bolo najmenej 4 až 5 čínskych dievčat, ktoré sa obliekali alebo čakali v rade. Trvalo mi asi 30 až 40 minút, kým som sa dostala na rad. Odporúčam rezervovať si najskorší čas, ak je to možné, aby ste sa vyhli čakaniu v rade a aby vám nikto nevybral vzory vrchného a spodného oblečenia, ktoré chcete nosiť! Personál obchodu je veľmi milý a priateľský. Aj keď sú veľmi zaneprázdnení, radi s vami prediskutujú, aký účes chcete a aký štýl opasku si želáte. Keď majú voľnú chvíľu, pomôžu vám aj s fotením. Make-up nie je zahrnutý, ale účes a obliekanie sú (môžete si vybrať kimono alebo Ryukyu oblečenie). Súčasťou sú aj ponožky s dvoma prstami. Vrchné a spodné oblečenie Ryukyu si vyberáte sami. Svoje vlastné oblečenie si vyzlečiete v malej prezliekacej miestnosti, oblečiete si telovú kombinézu, ktorú pripravil obchod, a potom čakáte v rade na účes a obliekanie. Vlasové doplnky si tiež môžete vybrať sami. Nakoniec, po dokončení fotenia a vyzlečení Ryukyu oblečenia, si nemusíte rozoberať účes. Obchod vám dokonca dá malú gumičku do vlasov (vzor si vyberiete sami). Bol to naozaj zaujímavý zážitok a stojí za odporúčanie~

Toto je veľmi dobrá skúsenosť. Spoločnosť poslala autobus, ktorý nás vyzdvihol. Ide o polodennú aktivitu, čo je ešte lepšie ako celodenná aktivita. Áno, je fyzicky menej náročná. Je vhodná pre ľudí, ktorí cestujú s deťmi alebo staršími ľuďmi.

Coming from Hong Kong, it rained heavily the night before, and I was worried. I WhatsApped the owner, and he was very kind, telling us to come anyway and see what the weather was like when we arrived. We participated in the 90-minute session, and both my husband and my friend's husband said they had a great time and really enjoyed it, especially the part at Senaga Island. There were only two participants that day, but the instructor was excellent, attentive, polite, and took great care of the students. It's definitely worth doing when you visit Okinawa. Before we left, each of us received a commemorative photo. I initially thought I had left something behind and WhatsApped the owner, and he was very helpful and kind.
