Kouri Island rundturer

Although I give this tour 5 star rating, with one caviat, we had some misunderstanding with tour guide in the morning, after addressing my concerns, later it was resolved. I would extend American Village by maybe half an hour, although we had an option to stay and later come back at our own expense. I believe hour and a half would be sufficient without being rushed, I wills cut short Cape by 15 mins and aquarium by another 15 mins. Otherwise bus was great, and I enjoyed the day.

Turen var utmärkt. Vi kontaktade dem via WhatsApp i förväg och bokade två dagar före det faktiska datumet. I Japan utfärdades en varning om tyfon nummer 6 som skulle drabba Okinawa. Personalen koordinerade och skickade ett meddelande för att informera oss om att turen ställdes in den dagen. Vi kunde antingen skjuta upp eller avboka, så vi valde att skjuta upp den med två dagar. Lyckligtvis fick vi åka på en dag med klar himmel. Resan gick smidigt. Personalen gav detaljerad information till varje grupp, inklusive mötesplatser och koordinater via WhatsApp. Den dagen fanns det många utländska turister från olika länder, men alla var punktliga och uppförde sig mycket bra på bussen. Vi var mycket nöjda med denna tur. Den var mycket prisvärd och bekväm. Vi kunde koppla av medan bussen tog oss till olika platser, och vi blev säkert hämtade och lämnade vid vår destination.

Ms. Ishikawa's introduction was incredibly detailed, and having a Chinese-speaking guide was a huge plus! Ms. Ishikawa took great care of everyone and immediately remembered everyone's faces in the group, which was amazing! The overall experience was excellent. Although we only had 30 minutes at Manzamo and Kouri Island, which might be a bit short for those who love taking photos and exploring, it really tested our time management skills. We had a good amount of time at the Churaumi Aquarium. If you want to take your time looking at everything inside, it might still not be enough, but seeing the enormous whale sharks alone made it worthwhile! There's also a dolphin show, opportunities to take photos with dolphins (limited to 15 groups), and even feed them (also limited groups, very popular, so if you want to do it, you need to line up right after the show)! At the Churaumi Aquarium, Ms. Ishikawa gave a very detailed explanation of the aquarium's layout and facilities, and she reminded everyone not to take a wrong turn, or they might get lost! There are three souvenir shops, and they each sell slightly different items. If you see something you like, it's best to buy it right away, because what's available in shop A might not be in shop B, and vice versa! This was my first time booking a one-day tour, and I really enjoyed it! It was very much worth it. Highly recommend!

I had one of the best tour guides, although everyone on my bus spoke Mandarin, ZaoSan took the time to explain me everything. She was very friendly and funny.

Minami-san är en fantastisk guide! Hon förklarar varje stopp på engelska och kinesiska, vilket gör hela resan så trevlig! Första stoppet vid Manzomo och Kaori-stranden har 30 minuter vardera, medan Churaumi-akvariet har 3,5 timmar och sista stoppet American Village 1 timme. Man kan välja att åka tillbaka utan att följa med bussen! Jag han med att prova bananmjölkshake vid American Village-stoppet nära informationscentret. Ett stort tack till chauffören för en säker körning och punktlighet!

Thank you so much! It was a great tour and we had such a great time everywhere we went. Yes, the tour is not in English, but I don’t think that’s a problem. First of all, we’re in Japan, and there are Japanese tourists on the tour as well. The guide and the driver were both very nice, and the guide really did her best to make sure everyone understood the basic instructions so we could all follow along without any problems. It’s a great day trip for anyone who wants to see different places in one day without rushing or having to worry about getting tickets and figuring out the right transportation. Thank you for the amazing day and for the lovely Japanese songs during the trip!

En heldag med många olika aktiviteter och massor av skoj. Vi älskade Kouri Island och akvariet mest, de var spektakulära. Kanske vore det bra att informera folk om att de kan ta med badkläder och ge lite mer tid för simning. Mindre tid i kakbutiken. Vår guide var rolig och mycket kunnig, hon var fantastisk.

This tour is highly recommended. The guide was very professional. Although we only spent 2.5 hours at Churaumi Aquarium, the guide helped us plan our route so we were able to see the dolphin show and have lunch. Afterward, we saw the main attraction, the whale sharks, and even participated in a whale shark pillow raffle on the way back to the bus. We only had two hours at AEON, but the guide expertly directed everyone to the stores they wanted to visit, allowing us to efficiently complete our shopping and return to the bus. For those who wished to continue shopping, the guide provided instructions on how to return to Naha independently. Also, please pay close attention to the meeting point and time in the morning. Arrange your transportation in advance to arrive on time and avoid being left behind!

Mycket trevlig endagsutflykt, chauffören kom i tid, han var mycket trevlig och hjälpsam och engelskan var tillräcklig för att vi skulle förstå varandra. Biltrafiken i Okinawa är mycket långsam så ha tålamod:).
